My phone now shows 4G, when for the last 9 months it was 4G LTE. I'm running ParanoidKangdroid 4.2.2, and i've never had a problem with the rom. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
P.S. The down/up speed has also slowed down.

if you look in settings, about phone, status, you can see if you're actually connected to lte or not. I think its labeled mobile network type.

It says LTE:13, so how come it stopped showing 4G LTE in the status bar? Is this an AT&T thing? Thanks.
No idea... I'm on quantum and it shows 4g LTE. As long as the status does LTE you should be fine

Question...for the last 9 months were you running a TW based ROM or ParanoidKangdroid 4.2.2. Most stock TW based roms show 4G LTE for LTE and 4G for H+ (for AT&T and most US carriers anyway). In AOSP world, I have always seen LTE show simply as 4G, 3G as H, H+, or 3G, and 2G as E.

I've been running ParanoidKangdroid, and this 4G thing only started on Wed. Maybe it's time for a new rom. Is there a good, stable 4.3 rom, that anyone can recommend? Thanks.

The stock rom that loserskater modded is knoxless and Selinux is permissive is very stable for me. If you don't like the touch wiz experience then download a launcher app from play store.

I was wondering, i have been trying different roms for a couple of days and i noticed that if i dont use TELUS roms, i do not get a 4g logo on my screen.
It's always on 3g. Is it actually runing at 3g or is it just a bug since im using a T-mobile rom on a Telus phone ? Is it actualy runing 4g ?
Curently on Infamous 2.9.1 with Venom 3 #5
Any advice ?
I was thinking on trying the Stable CM9 next with Venom 6#1
Thank you.

Yes this is a known issue dating back to gb roms. Telus phones will only show 3g but will still be using hspa+ (4g) as usual. It's a cosmetic issue only

Yes that is correct. You are on hspa+ 4g speeds but just are seeing the 3g logo

Thank you for clarifying !
I am showing HSPA:11 is this 4G?
If not what radio and tweaks do I need to make. And what are some working links?
I have been searching for the Blaze 4G radio (not sure which version I need), which was suggested by many as the best radio for TELUS users, plus any tweaks. But none of the links work.
I am with TELUS. Using the lastest Darkside Kernel, AOKP milestone 6, LLE4 radio.

You guys have to realize that 4g is actually 3.5g lol. So just run done speed tests, that should answer your questions right away.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
I understand that 4g is really 3.5g. My question is what is the best radio and tweaks for a T-989D in the Toronto area.
And working links to the radio.
I already understand that in these ROMs, H is the symbol for 4g (3.5g). Also the speed on custom ROMs isn't as good as Stock.

There is a flashable zip that fixes this issue. Go to the Jedi ROM in the development section. It's on the first page under add ons. Should be good on any tmobile based ROM for those of us with Telus phones.

Oh that wasn't directed towards you, that was more towards the general concern of op's.
Regarding radio it really is random, some user's opinions on radios differ from others even though they're in the same area. I wouldn't focus on the speed and focus more on the latency because where's the point of having fast speed when half the time I'm waiting for a response (ping). You can go into some of the custom roms thread, some have modded radios ready to flash. Check out tdj's thread he has like 3.

Just rooted my SGS2... Thinking about flashing a ROM, but first I have a question.
After flashing a ROM, will I still have 4G internet like I usually do? That is my only doubt.
Does anyone know of a good ROM if so? I want a clean, smooth ROM.

Yes, you will still get 4g. If you want a good jellybean ROM running 4.2.1 i would recommend the cyanogen 10.1 or AOKP. They are new versions but are running quite smoothly.

Installed AOKP, I can only get 3G/H+
Pre ROM install I'd always be at 4G.

"4G" (really HSPA+) displays as H+/H/3G on AOSP ROMs.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Lmao.. T-mo 4G = H+ on T-Mobile based roms it will show 4G even when it's not on H+ .. because they think their funny.. AOsP based roms are less sensitive and change the icon only when your on H+..(4G).
Run a speed test and you'd see that your still able to produce the same speeds regardless of what the icon says..
If your lucky then you'll be over 22mbs download speeds like I am
Technically regular hspa is TMo 3G and hsdpa+ is Tmo 4G

This is stated in the OP for the Q&A for that ROM. You still get your 4G speeds, it will just show as 3G, H, or H+. Did you do a speed test on your data connection to see what speeds you were actually getting?

I have seen on rom that had lte, which was aocp, but I didn't like the lockscreen slider.
I am kinda ocd about the lte thing. I figured if the aocp had it someone else must too.

I have a Galaxy S2 T989 and am on T-Mobile with 4G access. I updated to Android 4.1.2 through Kies and the rooted, and when I'm running that OS I have normal 4G and Wifi action. I flashed Cyanogen 10.1.0, 10.1.1, and 10.1.2 and I lost 4G on all three, even though all of my T-mobile network settings (APN, network mode) were identical to those on my wife's T989 - still running official 4.1.2.
Someone over at Cyanogenmod forums said that I needed to update my radio/baseband. How do I do this?

Do u still have service, are u able to make calls and such? If not I can give u a link to the radio and u just need to flash it in recovery just like a rom, but if u can still make calls and such ur fine but most aosp ROMs like cm don't use a 4g icon so 4g would be equivalent to h++ over signal bars, I only say this because ppl get confused about the actual icon too and wasn't sure what u meant
