Hi guys,
I got 2 days ago an LTE SIM card and I'm trying to setup the option "LTE/GSM auto" in my GT-I9250, without success.
This is how my settings look:

I got the phone from Google Store. When I select the option from drop-down menu, it pushes it back to "WCDMA preferred". I called the tech support and they told me that the LTE option is enabled on my phone account. What am I missing? Bell offers LTE AWS (1700 MHz) and LTE (700 MHz), does the Nexus have support for these bands? If any of Bell users managed to switch their Nexus to LTE, please let me know what you did.
Thanks for your help.
The gsm nexus doesn't have an lte chip. as far as I know lte won't work with that phone.

I need this information.
If I buy Galaxy Nexus from Google Play, does the phone will support WCDMA network option?
Does will work with GSM Frequencies: 900/1800 (frequencies of Macedonia)?
Something like this?

I am having Samsung Galaxy S 2 Epic 4G CDMA which has no SIM. But I am leaving now in Europe. Is it possible to change hardware that this phone will support SIM?
Or I can just throw this phone away because it is useless now.
EDIT:
I get answer from the provider:
Net Frequency: GSM 900/1800, W-CDMA 2100
can I use it with this phone?
thx

It makes a nice mp3 player, but otherwise you are out of luck. It is not a world phone.
No. You can't change it to a GSM phone.

I have Verizon wireless galaxy s3 and it is completely flashed with "Omni" ROM. Today, I switched from Verizon service to T-mobile service. It is working with Calls, But data always in "E" edge network. How can I get LTE or 4G network on Verizon galaxy s3 with T-Mobile SIM card?
I think I have right APN settings?

Probably not possible. If im not mistaken, T-Mobile uses different bands than Verizon and each carriers device is made to use their frequencies.
You can't for the reason doc said.. The apn you want is the LTE one, try the other T-Mobile apns but I doubt it will pick up..
Just as others have stated, it is because the phone does not support the freqencies that T-mobile uses. I have read in a few forums where people have reported better than Edge in certain areas where T-Mobile has refarmed. I too had a SCH-i535 on the T-Mo network for awhile, so I know your pain. That is why I sold my SCH-I535 in favor of the T999L.
Hi,
on Ebay I bought a brand new Huawei Nova 2 PIC-LX9. This is a variant that should be able to operate on LTE band B20 800MHz.
Unfortunately, in places where only LTE B20 band is available, the phone is connected to EDGE . I searched a bit and found out that the model designation differs in several places:
in the android settings - PIC-LX9
in the engineering mode (after entering the code *#*#2846579#*#*) - PIC_AL00_VE
on the box and battery cover of the phone - PIC-LX9
in the Chinese manual - PIC-AL00.
I have few questions:
-what´s problem with LTE ? Bug after update? Or is this a rebranded phone?
-Is the hardware of all Nova 2 variants the same?
-Is it possible to unlock/enable the B20 band?

AT&T told me that I have to upgrade my prepaid plan in order to get 5G speeds (I know, they're not really 5G), and I don't want to keep $1100 phone and pay more for service if I am unable to get them because phone does not have correct bands. Three websites list different bands for US model and I could swear OnePlus website did not list bands n260 and n261 a week ago. Then who is finally right?

Or finally OnePlus?
If you buy the North American variant, the bands are there.
But the problem with AT&T is that OnePlus has not certified
the 9 series for their 5G network so you wanna double check that
but regardless you have to buy the correct model for North America(U.S & Canada).
