LTE only option on 4.4.2? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

Hello all,
I was just wondering if anyone knows how to set LTE only for the network connection after the 4.4.2 update.
On preivious verisions I could just go to the service menu and set it but that does not seem to work anymore.
And under network selection it only gives me cdma and gsm.
Anyone know how I can lock it into LTE by chance after the update?

I think I found a way.
Will try when I'm in an area with proper coverage to test and report back.

How did you get to it?
The code wasn't working for me.
I got advanced signal status and can use that for device info to change it and it does work for me that way though.

*#2263# which will bring up the service menu, select LTE band preference, and then select option 3 for band 4

Is there a way to unlock this setting?
Search the forums. There's a way around it.

Golly thanks. Never would have thought of that. Any clues on which forums to search? The ATT forums pulled up nothing for me.
No way I've found around it.. don't know what he is talking about.

Search "GSLEON APN Unlock" in AT&T Development. I'd post a link if I wasn't on my phone.
Edit: Scratch that. Can't find it in there anymore. I'll see if I can dig it up.

Anyway if that is what you are talking about adding an non lte apn can be done but that is nit the same thing as unlocking it enabling manual network selection.

Is it something in the SIM that locks it?
i would greatly appreciate if someone found it!
What are you guys trying to do with this? When I go through it seems to be unlocked I can choose att and T-Mobile and I'm on att network

Where did you get the phone? I'm guessing from your sig you are rooted and running a non-ATT rom?
if you are talking to me i got my phone from att and i am using my att rom

Is that all it takes? Coolio. What is the best way to unlock? Also, I'm not worried about LTE vs 4G , just carrier selection.
oh im not unlocked either phone is just rooted running my rom
Would unlocking get carrier selection working?
I'm not sure I have carrier selection and I'm not unlocked

Just rub a little salt in the wound why doncha... lol. That is where I wanna be. I get into areas where the ATT signal is weak but present, and the phone will go on a roaming network. If I reboot it comes back up on ATT. Might have to go the root/rom route. Unless unlocking will get me there...

There is a way to unlock the phone but i fear that these roms are catered to 4g lte and simply mobile is only 4g will that affect service as far as data or email and text etc? Will it even work at all?

No lmao. If u dont know the difference between att radios and tmobile radios, then id advise u not to even bother with rooting and flashing. U can only get and will only get EDGE/2G data speeds. Period

With some fanagaling I got Toggle2G to work (Google it) only problem was it would not automatically come out of 2G and back to 3G. There is a widget on the market that will let you toggle on the home screen (just don't leave it in auto lol )

Terrible service on unlocked 4.1.1

Phone is originally att and I unlocked it by flashing 4.1.1. I hardly ever get service in my work building. And service switches from e to 4g way to much. And I miss calls all.the time. Like ill have service but phone will not ring. What can I do to fix this. I love the phone but its impossible to use for original purpose

You sure you have signal service with any ATT phone at your work place?.
At my work place i had to switch to Plane mode because it was no to 1 bar service which can't make/receive any phone calls and it happened to all ATT coworkers phone.
Yes im on tmobile. But my nexus 4 would have excellent service here. Not really good data. But phone reception yes

Did you flash the AWS mod (I believe thats what its called). It should allow your phone to use another radio band used by tmobile.

You know you can upgrade your modem to see if your reception will improve? As it should with a newer modem release...

Rom suggestions. APN settings? Metro pcs

Hello there.
I just unlocked and rooted my t999.
I will be using it with metro pcs, can anyone recommend any roms good to use with metro pcs? Or can I just stay stock? Is it safe to delete the t-mobile apps? What APN setting should use for data, mms, sms and voice to work properly?
Sent from my SM-N900T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You can use any rom or stay stay stock, up to you, and yes you can delete the T-Mobile apps.. For the APN, the T-Mobile APN will work fine

I'm sorry I don't know why I keep saying metro pcs, most metro pcs retail stores in my city changed to AIO wireless, so I'm getting AIO not metro, they told me it's the same as at&t as they are working with the same towers, so you think I have to change the APN from tmobile's to at&t? Or AIO?

You would have to change it, but I don't know if at&t APN would work. As far as ROMs you can also use at&t ones as well

If you call T-Mo, they can tell you if its blacklisted. If it is then it will not work.
It is blacklisted and it worked right when I inserted the AIO sim card, I just had to enter the APN for data to work.
