What is really weird is I checked several phones at the store and some s3.s had lte listed and some not. I've even seen it disappear on my phone under settings mobile networks and but comes back eventually. Not sure what's up with that.

If it is the T999L then yes, if T999 (no L) then no LTE.
I don't think so.

Which grey one? The one in just got brand new is the grey one and its the same as the white one I had before. Once I updated it to the newest update with modem it removed the late option and not seeing any changes in speed. I think once Tmobile releases late they are going to make you get a new sim card allowing lte. We just have to WAIT and see.

My pebble blue shows lte on the network list option. Read my post above from what I was told.

Is there anyway to check if a replacement phone sent from t mobile is refurbished or not? Just wondering to see if I can check previous usage or anything of that nature. Thanks!

if it's a replacement from Tmo then it's likely a refurbished.

As far as I understand, ALL replacement phones from t-mobile are refurbs unless otherwise stated.

A lot of time with new fones, they don't have any reverbs so you get a new one in a white box -batt. and back cover.
But other than a good visual inspection its almost impossible to tell

There are a few ways to tell for sure....
It doesnt matter what it comes in...its all same packaging new or furb....
(Unless from store)
1. Look at the sticker on the back..(new)non-refurb phones will have the white sticker with a blue sammsung logo... reburbs come with a smaller white sticker no sammy logo...
2.If you call tmo they will not tell u if its new.... BUT.... if u call in and ask for an unlock code u will give them ur emei number... they will look it up... if NEW it WILL NOT Be in there system... if its a RE-Furby the emei will show up.. because someone else once used it... they can not erase imei's... (or Dont...
ALL a refurb is ...
1.a new case
2.new flash of firmware
3. (Possible) work done on phone motherboard...ect.. ^SUCKS CnB^
Hopefully ur refurb is just 1 and 2 ehh
Or a new one.....

I love my tmobile service so far but there is one issue I cant handle. I text normally all day long for business and personall life and such but sometimes people will send me a text and I wont recieve it for about 3 or 4 hours. Is there any fix for this?

You sure it's just not them?
How many bars, on average, do you get?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
No issues for me. Try sending one to yourself, if it's delayed it's either your phone or T-Mobile if it's the latter then contact T-Mobile.

I've also had this problem a couple of times
Not sure whether it's T-Mobile system or my new Galaxy S4
I was thinking maybe it's system, since T-Mobile were testing and bringing LTE online around same time I've bought the phone.

Wow, actually that's good news, since you're also in NYC
Guess maybe it's related to network changes, ie LTE initialization, but not actually related to this phone.

That's for T-Mobile from reading it...
"Step 10. Once that’s done restoring, your phone will reboot. Just give it about a minute as it will reboot. Once rebooted, you can insert your T-Mobile SIM card and start enjoying T-Mobile 3G/4G HSPA+!"
Yup. I see that now. Flimflam said that the hack was in that site. Thats the only one I saw that looked relevant to the post. Maybe I missed it somewhere.

Change the last 3 letters letters of ro.product.name jflteatt mine say att because im using that 4g lte icon for at&t for sprint icons replace att with spr for verizon vzw for at&t att . Leave everything alone except the last letters which identify which carrier you on. This works on stock and other roms. Reboot and should work.

I thought the Verizon version was locked down and has to be unlocked by Verizon. Are you rooted right now?
This thread seems to show that it works. Dunno about LTE connectivity but it looks like it works for HSPA.

Some phones (made for specific carriers) have both CDMA and GSM capabilities, ie. the Verizon Note 2, iPhone 5
I am rooted..found out lastnight they are partially sim unlocked because you cant get LTE connectivity unless you fully unlock it.

Some have one. The VZW one does. I think it is specifically for roaming as the device is definitely gsm capable.

It's for the LTE network on Verizon. The SIM card had all the LTE sign in information and for foreign sim cards when global.
Having said that the Verizon note 2 is already sim unlocked (you do need root to change apns). You will get edge data and if you're in areframed t mobile you'll get HSPA, I'm honestly not sure about LTE.
I know this because I've owned both and was very active in the Verizon forum as well. I also thought about this exact move, but choose to sell my Verizon and buy atmo version. Better compatibility and wifi calling
