Hello,
Yesterday I updated my unlocked bell i747m S3 to 4.3.
I used it on rogers before with no issues regarding LTE connectivity.
However I did a factory reset on the phone before the upgrade, and after the upgrade I cannot find the LTE/HSPA setting instead I see LTE/WCDMA/GSM settings.
This phone was never rooted and I just updated through Samsung keys. Does anyone know a fix to this problem?
Thank You in advance,
Stas
Have you rang your carrier? This could be an issue with your APN settings.

So guys in a bit of a pickle here. I have a Rogers E-971 (sim unlocked) and I am trying to get data to work on Bell.
I have read the threads about the warning of LTE not working on Bell. So my questions are can I not get HSPA (3G) data working? I can live without LTE. ANy help would be appreciated.
Also I was quite familiar with Samsung S2 and S3`s and odin flashing. Can I not root and unlock the bootloader and then flash the Bell firmware to fix the data problem.....
Any help would be appreciated!!!!!!!! till I get this working, love the phone!!
Links to the best rooting and bootloader unlocking threads would also be appreciated...just got the phone today!! Still reading.
Is your apn correct?
If it is, then you just have to flash the Bell modem. Check one of Houston's thread. He has a link for the JB modems.
Bell has LTE on 2600mhz as well but very limited markets unlike Rogers.
You can flash the Bell or Telus modem for Band 4.
LG Optimus G E971/3/5/6/7
Thanks, so correct me if I am wrong, I should get data on HSPA? If not it could be the incorrect APN? I did try the APN a couple of times.
Thanks for your help, I got root now, just have to unlock the bootlaoder, then flash the modem when I find the threads. Mucho appreciated!!!
Okay I got it finally!!!! Elisha you were right, the APN was set right except for apn type, I had it as internet + mms, once I deleted that (which I saw on one forum) I now am getting data!!!
Hi, i'm having trouble going back to stock. I installed stock fido software via odin but, Rogers bloatware is on when I power up. Am I doing anything wrong? Wiped/factory reset, cleared cache and re-installed but same thing.
Thanks
Is this the ROM you are installing?

The exact one.
Well, Rogers owns Fido so maybe that's why there is Rogers software in the Fido ROM? I'm not sure since I don't have a Fido phone to test.

I own a fido i747 as well. There shouldn't be any rogers bloadware installed on your phone.
I've gone back to stock before and Fido software was on it but, this time, it put Rogers crap on it. I even used the file I had downloaded originally but
for some reason it wont load Fido this time. Not a huge deal, but i'm a little anal about the whole problem.
Hi all,
I have an unlocked Rogers Note 2. Recently came back from Vegas and I picked up a Ready Sim sim card to use for the weekend. Come back to Canada, insert my Rogers sim and now my wifi won't turn on anymore.
While I was in the US, I had used Will03 SlimKat ROM. I just recently downloaded this ROM to see if the problem would go away.

The problem still exists. Is it possible the Ready Sim APN is still hidden somewhere on the phone and it's messing with my phone? This is a first for me. I'm stumped as to what the problem is.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Hi guys,
I had my Note 2 on Koodo network for less than a year. Recently I unlocked it and sold it to a friend. My friend is on Videotron network and the phone shows the signal with an R like if my friend was roaming however it works properly. I also tried switching the network manually but it doesn't want to connect to Videotron. Is there something that I need to flash such as modem maybe ? It's running on Slimkat latest stable version.
Hi All,
I'm looking for help with this odd issue I can't seem to solve:
SGS-I747M, originally from Bell, unlocked and flashed with Telus stock firmware; testing with Telus SIM card. Only able to _functionally_ connect to HSPA(+) network: when trying to get LTE, the phone shows "LTE" but no internet, no SMS; I'm able to place/receive phone calls.
Tried editing the LTE-related NV items (as referenced elsewhere on this forum) -- the changes don't stick, and the values revert to the original (interestingly, they are the same as on an original Telus phone that gets LTE no problem!).
I made sure the modem is from Telus stock ROM.
This issue is obviously not a show-stopper, and the phone would be totally usable on Telus network, but I'm just curious: the hardware is the same, the software is the same... what the heck is the issue?
Could someone plz point me in the right direction?
Cheers,
Alex
You have an LTE card? I have Public Mobile which is a Telus sub that runs off the Telus towers and I can get LTE on a stock i747m.

Of course. It is my primary, Telus "proper" card. I get LTE on a former Rogers unlocked I337M stock Lollipop, as well as a former Rogers unlocked I747M with stock 4.3 (not to mention the Telus I747Ms I have... I rescued all my other phones from a trash bin, restored the glass on some, swapped motherboards and screens on some).
APN settings are also correct.
thoughts?
If all of the parts are original and there is no damage, I'm at a loss as to why there is no connection on LTE.
Have you tried changing the csc to telus using the dialler menu? Maybe it needs the stock telus ROM?

CSC = TLS. So I'm at a loss as well. Hence the question to the community
