But please do yourself a favor and dont just go and start flashing away. Search, read, and learn all the available info on your model before doing anything.

Thats covered in the thread. T999 roms cant usually show lte in the statusbar. You have to stsrt a download and check Network Type under Settings, About Device, Status.

I think with 4.1.2 tw ROMs it should show it, I tried it with an at&t s3 and it showed lte on statusbar, but not with 4.1.1 it would connect to it but just show 4g.. Of course idk if its different with the t-999l

At&t has lte, so their roms will have the ability to display it. The T999 isnt capable of lte, so its roms have no need to show it in the statusbar

This. Mine showed "4G" on the bar, when I checked the Status page (the one that Doc is referring to) it showed LTE.

Either way, it boils down to this. On a T999L you will get LTE if its available in your area. Whether or not is shows this in the statusbar is just rom dependant, but you will still get LTE.

cool all i want to do with my tmobile galaxy s3 lte is install a t999 custom rom that works with the t999l because the lte model has no roms yet,but if the t999 are compatable with no issue ill flash away,
just wanted to no if anyone had success and what was there procedure
the lte is incredibly fast night and day compared to the t999
There are a few things to look out for. Just re-read the first several posts in both my Q&A and Development threads and at least skim over the last few pages of the Q&A one.

I rooted my tmobile S3 today and it worked fine. Later I installed a cyanogen nightly sang noticed it was only getting 3g, so I did a restore to the stock rooted firmware through ROM manger. With that I got just bars, no indication of 4g or 3g. The phone wouldnt go to the internet, it said no connection available. I had to restore back to cyangen to get the phone just to work... but regardless of which settings I chose the phone is stuck in 3g. What is the fix? I'm going crazy here
Did you check your imei? Did you back it up?

3G on cm is the same as 4G on tmo stock rom.
Try checking your apn settings on the stock rom since I think your imei is fine, without it you wouldn't have gotten 3G at all, even on cm.

Wait, are you just looking at the icon without it doing anything. Many aftermarket ROMs will show 3G when the phone is doing nothing. It will show 4G or H when you make it work.

I searched around for the differences between the I747 and I747M, and apparently it is the location... That brings up my question.
I got an I747M, but live in the US and am with AT&T. Should I be worried about anything?
Thanks!
EDIT: I have found that it is because I flashed KyanROM, which changed it from I747 to I747M. Is there any way to revert this change? I did try to change it in the build.prop, like a bunch of places said, but when I did, the phone would get to the Samsung screen the crash. I did a nandroid restore and everything was fine, except it is still showing I747M.
Nope.

Flash only modems that are for your carrier.
The reason I asked that is because Kyan ROM is based on the 747m firmware. It still works with the 747, but the build.prop shows it as a 747m.

Exactly. Look at the title in the Kyan forum... notice the M after the 747?.. so.. youve entered the world of ROMs?.. time to study!! Read read and read again my friend or youll get flamed like crazy around these parts. The answer to this question and probably all your questions are available in Kyans forum.. theres a thing called the OP that has all the info you need about the ROM you flash.. make sure you read it in its entirety atleast twice before flashing , sop. The OP is the very first post.. also, how to get around your issue and get the AT&T bloat back is also found in that forum.. theres a search function that will reveal all your questions and dreams.. its like magic except its just the search function.

Thanks guys, I feel a little bit better about it now.
I am only worried about the model number, because I can't download any of the AT&T stuff from the market because it is restricted from I747M's (as they are Canadian, and AT&T has no use on those devices). Is there any way to change it back to I747 and get rid of the M? @daddymatt, I have spent a good 30 minutes searching, and can't find any way to revert it.
I did try to change it in the build.prop, like a bunch of places said, but when I did, the phone would get to the Samsung screen the crash. I did a nandroid restore and everything was fine, except it is still showing I747M.

Try changing device id to I9300 instead of I747. It's the international version and will serve the same purpose. Don't know for sure if this'll work, but i think I've seen it somewhere else.

How many lines in the build.prop did you change? I had to change 4 in order to get Bell mobile tv working while running an AT&T rom. Try this, change
- ro.product.name=d2att
- ro.product.device=d2att
- ro.product.model=SGH-I747
- ro.build.product=d2att
This should make your phone think it's an AT&T phone again, remember keep a nandroid handy just in case...
Can anyone provide a flashable zip? I know how to do it manual but I`d rather have a flashable zip It was once posted in a thread but I dont remember. for it to show 4G instead of H+ and LTE instead of 4G
I dont mean to be rude but, whats the point?
This is easy to do, but the only way I know how to do it requires the SystemUI.apk to be replaced. This would remove any themes you have applied to the status bar. Theoretically you can use any icon you want to, but Touchwiz only has a few icons included (so you can make your own or switch to generic Android icons). If you are okay with these things, I can make a flashable zip file for you.

I totally understand the point for the OP's request - personally, we recently got LTE in the area I live in - it was big deal to me - seeing the 4G LTE show up in the status bar was always very satisfying for me - I had waited so long to get it - the other symbols, while meaning the same thing - just don't have the same sort of "panache".... it may sound silly to you - but I get it. Unfortunately, I personally would not want to lose theming just to have the 4G lte show up the way the OP requested - better to have it baked into what ever theme you are using or if you know how, to manually do it -
I really just wanted to respond to the lack of tolerance I saw in response to the op request - each of us has a right to appreciate whatever special little tweak might be possible on our phones and it really should not be discouraged - it is what XDA is all about. Every theme or ap or rom is not for everyone - each chooses what is most important to them - so if you don't happen to agree with what one person likes - so what? you wouldn't have to flash it would you?
I'm running clean ROM att I don't care for atts 4g icon so I used the stock is rather still see what I got now than att but would be better if it said lte
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium
I understand wanting to see the LTE symbol. However, H+ is still technically 3G, so if you change that to 4G, you're just lying to yourself.
Yea but the reason asked is cause the flash able zip I did have had it like that

When we refer to firmware its generally the Odin flashable stuff. Official from Samsung.
But theres also a recovery flashable In the development section that has all those underlying parts of the firmware. (Bootloader, modem, rpm, tz. Each on its own partition)
If you stick to just roms and kernels you ought to be just fine.

Hello
I wonder if i can flash sprint rom on at&t note 2
Thanks for all the answer
only if you want to mess up your phone...
Yea be carefull flashing Roms thats is not for your device model. If I were to flash another Rom ft a different carrier I would stay with Tmobile, Att, and gt n7105. Alot of times modems aint included in the rom or you will have an option in Aroma to Retain Modem. Another thing is you might lose LTE flashing Sprint or Verizon Roms because there CDMA and yours is GSM. I would just stick to your own device forums. Or atleast stay on the GSM/LTE Side (7105-i317-t889)
