Note 2 lte on 4.2.2 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

I am using the avatar rom on my att note 2 and I am not able to get 4g anymore I have ran speed tests and the speeds are very slow. I have set the apn to att lte and still getting similar speeds. Any ideas on how to get faster lte speeds along with the 4g icon isn't showing.

I am having a similar problem. I've flashed this ROM awhile ago and have noticed I'm not getting LTE, only H+. I'm with Bell and not sure what I need to install or where I can find the correct APN needed?

Hspa+ upgrade?

Has anyone else noticed their hspa+ speeds go through the roof? My typical data speeds on h+ are between 5-8. Today I got this on my GNote 2... Has AT&T done some upgrading, or is the Note 2 just THAT awesome?

Assuming that I'm completely understanding your case and question... I could really say something that will be extremely embarrassing, considering how completely asinine and ignorant this question in... but I'll keep it civil: if you're on T-Mobiles network, and T-Mobile doesn't have 4G LTE, can you explain to me how on Earth you think that you'll be getting 4G LTE just because you're using an AT&T phone??? Surely, you wouldn't be foolish enough to be suggesting that LTE is built into a specific handset.
Thank you for being civil with me.
I know the tmo doesnt get lte. I meant 4g hspa+

Test speeds with speedtest.net app on both stock and a ROM for comparison. Some ROMs say 3g when they are on hspa+.
Be warned. This takes up around 5 megs a pop. So don't do it a ton of times.

Bad data speeds

Been getting slow speed on note 2. Usually on s2 I get up to 12megs down,. On note the best I've been able top get is 4. Speeds dogs increase when switching to newest modem. Anyone else? ?

Yeah I'm cool not having lte until it's released but how does my sgs2 get better speeds on t mobile?

Honestly I'm thinking some of the issues are the build.prop
Ive been adding a few things ril related
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=28
ro.ril.hsupa.category=9
ro.ril.hsxpa=5
ro.ril.gprsclass=12
And getting somewhat better performance though I'm not certain they are helping I don't have the energy to check if something else is setting them
Just add a new APN with epc.tmobile.com, the new APN (fast.t-mobile.com)on the 4.1.2 is the one making you get the slow speed.

the new APN is for the LTE network supposedly. Not sure if it will be only for LTE or if you'll be able to epc for LTE as well.
I'm in one of the LTE markets and keep flipping between stock and carbon rom. Tried cyanogen and have had the best luck.
I bought my note 2 at full retail for use on prepaid 70$ plan to see if I want to switch off my VZW unlimited data with 30$ hotspot.
I'm anxiously awaiting LTE turn up!

They cover how to make the APNs editable in these forums you'll have to search. I don't have the energy to look at the moment.
Edit:
Ended up finding a decent example of editing stock with new APN.

Just be VERY VERY VERY careful and I'm not liable for any issues you run into.

I thing they are testing LTE under fast.t-mobile.com but if you live in a tmobile LTE area is no need to change to epc but if you see slow speed have the epc apn available to switch for faster HSPA+.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
Yeah I think they are using it to test also but that's a guess. I constantly switch between 3g and 4g icons all day. ... Like every ten seconds when in most areas. I'll leave apn until tomorrow and then switch to epc if I don't see lte. I live in Miami fl and have been checking downtown in hopes of getting lte

Looks like no Florida (or nyc for the matter) in initial lte roll out

I just got this phone last Wednesday but i was curious about one thing. This phone has the HSDPA+42 radio? I think it does but my speeds (although still good) or not as fast as my nexus 4. I get with the note 2 about 15Mbps download. On my nexus 4 i would get from 17-23 Mbps

Maybe because they're using different APNs? The nexus 4 is probably using epc.tmobile.com while the note 2 is probably using fast.t-mobile.com.
When i update my Tmobile note 2 to the latest firmware i noticed slow download/upload speed so i changed my APN back to epc.tmobile.com and i get my 20mbps down again... THE new update enabled the LTE radio and changed the APN from epc.tmobile.com to fast.t-mobile.com...

Were the apn settings for the note 2 before the update the same as the nexus 4? I wanna see if this would improve my speeds

If i could piggy back off this thread, I also have a tmo s4 on att network. Yesterday I was with a friend who was also on att and I noticed his phone at that time had 4g where the network bars were located, mine however read H+. It was then I realized that I have never seen the 4g symbol on my phone ever. Do I just not get 4g? Or does this ROM that I have on my phone (slim bean) either not have the files for 4g or maybe its originally a T-Mobile ROM so I'm not getting 4g I don't know. I do get LTE tho.

Ok this makes sense, thanks.
I had the same issues. If your previous phone that you used on AT&T was only 3G (I had an iPhone 4), your SIM card is only configured to receive and transmit 3G data. You will need to go on to wireless.att.net and order a new 4G SIM card, or go to a store and have them program one for you. This is assuming that you have already signed up for one of the new data plans, if not, they will likely not issue a SIM card capable of 4G and will probably hound you via email and SMS about using a 4G device on an old 3G data plan.
