I installed the new modem per the instructions that I found on all of the different posts. LTE works well and II have no data drops that others report. My only issue is that I have LTE and 3G, just no 4G. I get good LTE in most of San Antonio but 3G where I used to have 4G prior to the upgrade. I wouldn't think that this would be ROM related, would it?
What ROM are you running? It could just be an "icon" thing if running custom Rom. I'm running Wicked 9.1 and have the 4G/LTE icon where there's LTE but instead of 3G I get a 4G icon where I usually get 3G before. This is consistent in a few locations that I frequent so I know it's not a fluke. I have not run any speed test to confirm anything though.

I tried a couple of the 4.4.2 ROMS and the results seem to be the same and modem specific.

Hello,
I am running AOKP JB v1 on ATT Gnex. I havent installed any other kernels or radios. My issue is that, while i have full coverage in an area i know i have data, while my signal bars show full with "H" above them, i cannot get data. Cannot send picture messages or go to google market or use browser. I think i need to flash a different baseband or radio but i have no idea which one i should be using or what is compatible. Can somebody please point me in the right direction. It is rather annoying to loose data constantly.
Well I really need help now. I flashed a radio but obviously it wasnt meant for JB. I have signal enough to text and make phone calls but no data at all now. It shows all grey bars with the H above it. Can anybody link to a working JB radio/baseband for GSM please?
I believe i should be use 9250XXLF1 but i cannot find a download for it

Try going back to stock completely. I do think its rather a network issue. Do you have the correct data plan for it?

I have been using the UGKL1 radio on ATT in Northern California - has worked well for me. Obviously, radios are very dependent on location but this radio was a big improvement for me.
They changed something with the network, allot of users reporting issues of data drops because its switching from umts to hspa and hspap constantly.

I see it constantly changing between the listed signals although the status bars show full w/ "H" above them. Tried multiple different roms. I switched from lumia 900 to this phone so my plan is good up to LTE. Shouldnt have an issue w/ that. Would flashing a different radio help?

Flashed touchwiz jellybean Rom. Had no lte. Flashed back to rogers original 4.0.4 and no longer have lte or 4g. Do I have to get into an lte area before It registers? I have my tab with me and it's getting 1 bar lte 4g in a weak area. Please help.

Go into your Mobile Network settings, check "Access Point Name" and see if you're on the LTE apn.

I've had the same experience with three other roms I've flashed on my roger gs3. I have been through apn settings on all of the roms, but I still dont get LTE. When I recover the stock rom it goes back to 4g/lte every time. So, I'm sticking with the stock rom until there is a definitive fix. I'm nowhere near good enough at this to figure it out myself.
I suggest, if you want to keep receiving lte service, that you restore your stock rogers rom.
From what I've been reading on xda threads; it seems that this problem is central to the at&t/rogers/bell phones.
Roms I have tried:
d2can OTA keeproot
aokp_JB_d2att-ota-eng.task650-ktoonsez-10.3.2012c (this one is so bad ass; I might just put up with no lte)
Liquid smooth d2att jb v.2.0
NexusMod-Triune-II-(UX)-20120918-NIGHTLY
Are you basing the no lte status solely on the icon in your notification bar, or have you ran speed tests to confirm your network speed?
speed tested everytime

No, unfortunately, when experiencing these 3g/h+ instead of 4g/lte problems, on the flashed jb roms, my download speeds are consistently under 5mb/s. When restored to stock rom they go up to almost 10mbs on 4g. I haven't been able to test the lte speeds yet because rogers towers somehow manage to miss my street, but are covering the college five blocks from here. I'll test again next time I'm on campus and see how they both fare.
There seem to be so many variables involved. I'm just trying to eliminate them one by one, so as not to confound the results.
I was thinking that the aosp roms don't usually have an lte icon.

I had to give up on ktoonsez &task rom and go with CM10 nightly. This is after trying out cm cfx official rom, to no avail.
I was able to get 4g with cfx, task 650&ktoonsez,but only for a short time then they would automatically either lose signal, or switch to a different APN all together. Now I have around 13 mbps on CM10 with H+. I'll settle for that instead of sketchy hit or miss with the others. I'd like to figure out how to fix Task650&ktoonsez rom. I prefer that one so far after playing around with them all a bit.
Hello xda. I need some help with my GS3 and LTE. I rooted my phone on day one and have moved from rom to rom. I live in the SF Ba. Area and they are turning LTE on. Using sensorly I found some LTE areas, but my phone won't connect. I have tried different roms: CM10, Paranoidandroid, Ktoonsez, and now Liquid. I started with radio LJ9 and am now on LJ7.
I hope someone can give me a few ideas on what to try next. I heard updating the PRL can help, but I don't know how to do that.
Sorry if I did a poor job of searching, I am on my tablet, on 3G, and I couldn't find much
To update your profile and prl (prl is for roaming and doesn't effect lte).
menu -> settings (scroll to the bottom) -> system updates -> update profile / update prl
I'd odin stock JB or ICS and test LTE that way.
Though all of the ROMs you listed should have perfectly working LTE.
good luck
I flashed back to a Odex stock, and updated my profile and prl (just incase). I still don't seem to get any LTE.

On CM10 (and all AOKP ROMs based on it) eHRPD authentication is not working right yet. I think they're close to a fix, but for right now, if you're in an area with a weak LTE signal; you're gonna have some problems
SOS HELP
when I flashed AOKP's rom and using this rom almost half year
there has a crazy problem is about the T Mobile H+ signal
I remember that I used the stock rom showing the 4G icon everytime. and speed really fast.
but now I'm using the AOKP's rom when you using the H+ maybe just five minutes the network signal change to E(EDGE) or 3G
and network just stopped alittle while like 5-25 seconds then returned back to H+ or H
the problem make me crazy,
I searched in google sometimes but I didn't find any answer, maybe I just use wrong keyword on it.
so, anyone knows this issue? and how to solve that?
AOKP was released a 4g_signal.zip but it could not work right now on the android 4.2.2 ...
It happened every AOKP rom. when I flashed and use it
network signal is really instability.
It's not an issue.. the TMO S3 has only been supporting the HSPA+ bands at most and that is our 4G. When you flash an AOSP ROM it will display H+, which are the bands your on when your network is originally displayed as 4G on a stock ROM. H+ is displayed while data is being transferred. When no data is being transferred your data will bump down to UMTS or EDGE, which displays as your 3G, to conserve more battery. It's something you're gonna have to get used to on AOSP ROMs
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Actually, no it does not jump down to Edge when there is no data pull (and you'll use MORE battery, because its search for the 4G network). When there is no data pull, it will display (on custom ROMs) as 3G. When it pulls data, it will show either H or H+. You already know that T-Mo network (exception of the LTE cities) has no difference between their 4G and 3G.
Now, you said that you're getting edge every once in a while. Try flashing a new radio. But, I'm confused, because you said you're trying to flash a 4G zip onto 4.2. There hasn't been a 4G zip even for a long time on 4.1. It won't work with most 4.1 ROMs, as the last time I saw a 4G zip it was for a specific updated of AOKP. Anyway, how long has the issue been going on since you started dipping down to Edge at certain times?

My mistake. That is what I was initially referring to. I should have said H+ displays AFTER data has been pulled. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

When I am on the Network Mode LTE/CDMA/EVDO AND on 4g, my data works as intended, download and upload works. However, if I am still on LTE and only have 3g service...I get ZERO upload data. This is why MMS doesn't send and other things (Instagram, Snapchat).
To get these things to send, I got to set my Network Mode to just CDMA/EVDO Auto. The downside to this is that 4g will never get picked up when available.
If anybody knows how to fix this so that my data uploads when I'm 3g but on the LTE/CDMA/Evdo network mode that would be great!!!!
I am running the Carbon 5/10 nightly but I believe this is a common AOSP issue.
Thanks!!!

Which modem are you on?
Once you can identify the baseband version try different modems besides your current one and see if it makes any difference for you. I'm sorry it took so long for anyone to respond to this..

Unfortunately, this did not work. I'm wondering if this is an APN issue, although I don't really know what I'm talking about.
As you can see from the screenies...3g upload speed is non-existant when on the LTE network mode.
Edit: 1st screenie is on LTE. The 2nd is on CDMA/Evdo Auto.
What are you talking about 3g on lte network mode. 3g is 3g. LTE is 4g two completely different things. If you have LTE in your area your device would connect and say 4g. If not it will connect to only 3g. If you are on a stock rom you might only be connected to 1x speed but your phone will display 3g. Only custom roms will break it down to actually show if you are on 1x connection.
If you are on a custom rom then that may be your problem if you do have lte in your area, even more so if you are on aosp type rom. They have issues handling the exchange between 4g and 3g. I pretty much bet that's what it is an rom issue handling the exchange.

Under settings - mobile networks - network modes. The LTE mode is selected. In areas where 4g is not available and only 3g is...upload data does not work. However, if just the CDMA/EVDO auto is selected under mobile networks (LTE NOT SELECTED) data upload works fine.

What Rom are you on? Never mind, just read your on Carbon. This is a common issue with aosp roms. You should leave it always in cdma/lte/evdo never change from there. Set it to that and reboot. Use the toggle for 4g to turn 4g on or off.
But beltway to assure yourself that it is a rom issue is create a nandroid, then flash a TW rom and test the handling between 3g and 4g, and your data.

I am on LiquidSmooth v2.4 official. However this happens on the past few AOSP roms i have tried.
Back to what you said, maybe the handoff from 4g to 3g is just not working with data upload properly.
Wow I must say thanks for the toggle idea. Beats the heck out of going into mobile settings and switching modes every time I want to send an MMS.

Correct, just do yourself a favor in order to eliminate a hardware issue. Make the nandroid of your current set up. Clean flash a TW rom anyone and check the handoffs if it works property it's a rom issue if you still have problems it could be the device itself. It takes less than 5 minutes to test you don't have to set everything up just flash log in with Google account and check.
