No LTE option in network modes after flashing custom rom - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

After flashing a custom rom on my t999l, there is no longer an option for lte in network modes. Is there a build.prop edit that would get lte option back? Or some other way?

I think I figured it out. I changed everything in the build.prop that said T999UVUEMJC to T999LUVUMK4. Now I have the Lte option in network mode again. And it seems to be working fine.

You didn't have to do that though, it should connect to lte as long as it's in auto mode

That's what I thought too. But it wasn't.

It was only connecting to umts and hspa. This is the first rom that this has happened with.

What is your APN ? For TMO LTE you need different APN than us mere mortals
Switch to fast.t-mobile.com instead of epc.t-mobile.com

3G 4G LTE

Does anyone know how I can change the network? Most of the jelly bean roms don't have 4G I'm on 3G with the dragon rom. Anyway where would I go to change this? In the build prop? I know some say change modem but that has nothing to do with it. Any help would be great.

You would think it could be changed in the build. I have been looking through the build prop but just not sure if that's the right place to start or not. Has to be a way to re write it.

Change the network? It's determined by the Access Point Names and the Network Mode. If you're accessing an LTE-capable APN then as long as you're Network Mode is set to LTE/GSM/WCDMA (and your in an LTE area and have LTE provisioning on your plan of course) you're phone will access it if it's the strongest signal for you.
1 bar of LTE is way faster than HSPA+ btw

Do you have 3G or Hspa+ because on the stock roms it says you have 4G but it really isnt , it is Hspa+.

Have you actually ran a speedtest to determine your actual network speed?
I did a speed test and u get like 23mb download but that's included with my build.prop tweaks

You can Change the apn right then add z few modification to build.prop then you should have better faster network speeds in theory

So how do I set my Network Mode? My S1 (I9000) has a 'network mode' setting under 'mobile network settings'. It lets me choose between GSM, WCDMA, or both (auto). My S3 has no such setting or option. By the way, the I9000 always worked better in WCDMA Only mode.
I am on a Straight talk plan and have no access to 4G network.

4g settings???

Am I missing something where are 4g settings? Lol

It's not working on my either and the LTE option was already chosen.
I believe they screwed up on this, they'll probably fix this with an update.
They're setting us up. They're not gonna give it to us until the 4g lte price hike.

Funny I get 4g like no body's business. I stay connected even more so than my daughter's evo lte.
Try set to home only (sprint) under roaming. Notice my data is a whole lot stable compare to automatic.
Yeah it works...i get 4g. It connects automatically

After Jb OTA am getting 4G in status bar when Orange needs 3 years to provide it!

How could this happen!! My phone is a T-Mobile T999 unlocked and working on Jordanian Orange. According to orange they will begin providing 4g in 2015 yet in status bar I see that am connected to 4g. Could the T-Mobile build be exaggerating figures ??

Mine always shows 4g...Although truly I am not always connected to 4g.
Just run a speed test and you will see.

Most phones would show H or H+. The T999 was coded to show 4G instead, in keeping with their ad campaign.
If you go into settings, about device, status, under network type itll say UMTS at idle and probably HSPAP when under load.

Trouble with global mode

So I'm visiting family in Austria and had Verizon set me up for global. Now that I'm here it just won't work. I'm set to global but there's no signal at all. Verizon had me try a few things but no go. Is there anything I can check that might be missing or need to manually add? I'm using EclipticOne ROM.

It's sim unlocked, why not get a prepaid sim if the phone has the proper bands?

I plan to but I don't understand why it's not working for me like it is supposed to.

Under settings --> Mobile Data --> Preferred Network change the setting to GSM/UMTS.
I went through a few different settings with Verizon but it didn't help. Would the absence of any system apks cause this to not work? Or some other internal config?

Well Hawks was basically stock. I did think about it but I don't feel like wasting a day putzing around on my cell. Although with this time zone difference I was up until 5am. Bah
