311-660 What network is that? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

Wikipedia list it as MetroPCS. Aren't they lte? Is lte radio in ours notes2 already active?

I think this is an lte network probably metropcs.if the phone is forced on hspa only or 2g only then the network is gone so thats must be lte on metro pcs.but why the phone cant see sprint and verizon lte networks?

Sprint does not have 4g LTE in my area but US Cellular does, is there a way I can roam off of US Cellular towers for 4G LTE

Im sure that might be an option once sprint launches some LTE devices but don't quote me on that.

No probably not as there are no roaming agreements on 4g sprint was talking with big red but probably will never happen as different freq and VZW don't want to anyways they would have to be forced by FCC

I noticed att also has 4g not lte but just 4g in my area, would be awesome to hook up to it
I could be wrong but I think our phone will not have a Sim card either which will probably not allow hooking up to the att version...somewhere it said Sim less lte about our version of nexus

Enable Sprint lte with msl

I was perusing the programming menus on my phone and happened to see one labeled LTE and it was set to disabled. What would happen if i enabled that setting? I know my msl and everything. An curious to know if it would pick up the Verizon lte network in my area

You won't get Verizon's LTE if you have a Sprint Nexus.......
Leave it set to disabled, unless you are in one of Sprint's LTE cities. If not, your battery life could suffer.
Not even with roam

No.
You'll never be able to connect to Verizon's LTE.
Keep it disabled until you know it's in your area.
There are no roaming agreements with lte and unless say the FCC makes them there probably never will be

LTE Roaming
Furthermore, I'm pretty sure the Verizon LTE and the Sprint LTE are on different bandwidths... so I don't think that the phone was built to be able to roam on both LTE networks. I could be wrong though, I don't know enough about what is required for the radios to pick up the different frequencies.

Tmobile T889 work on Verizon lte or 3g

Just like my topic says I know u can take a verizon Iphone 5 and use a tmobile sim or any cdma phone that's factory unlocked and a global phone use a Gsm att or tmobile sim and you get 4g .But can you put a verizon lte sim in the tmobile note 2 and get service or data for that matter "KEEPIKG IN MIND" these are pentaband phones which supports other carriers 4g or lte. Or would our note 2 have to have cdma radio .
Anyone confirm this would work

3G won't work. Period. Verizon is CDMA while our phones are GSM.
LTE is a bit different though. In theory it should work but after Verizon actually starts deploying LTE on the AWS spectrum but I wouldn't hold my breath because you won't have voice or anything but data and very sporadic at best if it even works at all.

I tried a VZW sim in my unlocked phone, no go.
It might work if you can use voice over lte

Make sure you're in an lte area
Make sure your apn settings are correct and you have selected lte in the cell settings.
Also something to keep in mind you'll only get 4g speeds when it's needed aosp roms have a throttle built in to save battery.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
I did all of that but what would I do to make my phone use LTE? My speeds are fast I just want to make sure I'm getting what I paid for.

LTE coverage
[LTE is not yet at 100% rollout status. I am getting LTE backhaul, which is what most of the US will end up doing. It will take time to be on the "backhaul" but have you checked to see if you are in an LTE coverage area? You can purchase an LTE plan, and it say you have basic LTE on your AT&T app, but that DOES NOTmean that you have it. Check with your local store. For whatever reason AT&T doesn't have most of the backhauled cities listed.

E 988 to 980 .. for 4G on T-Mobile

Hi guys, i recently moved to the US. Got a T mobile sim to use on my E988 which i used to use in India. Here 2g network is fine but am not able to get a 4G LTE connection on phone. Am running the VUPMP G3 ROM, all good but i just can't live on 2G network.
Can i flash an e980 baseband on e988 or something like that. Please advice.
Sent from my LG-E988 using XDA Free mobile app
I'm don't think the E988 has the proper bands to support T-Mobile 3G or LTE. T-Mobile has their 3G on the 1700 band (AWS) and the1900 band. T-mobile's LTE is on the 1700 band (AWS). Your phone doesn't doesn't have the 1700 or the 1900 band.
Sent from my LG-E980 using XDA Free mobile app
Depends on where you are. You will get 3g only im "refarmed" T-Mobile areas because the phone doesnt support the 3g bands used in some older T-Mobile towers. You should get LTE anywhere where it is available. Check coverage maps to be sure you have LTE service in your area.
