am I on 4G or LTE? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys i'm wondering if i have the maximum speed from my provider (Rogers). I did some speed test.
2.89 mbps/0.8 and 12.2 mbps/0.8 mbps. I'm not sure if im on LTE or just 4G. I can't show you my homepage (I'm new can't post link) but I have the symbol 4G, not LTE like my iphone 5s

If you see only 4g symbol on rogers than its only 4g. Should be ltev on canadien devices.
And your speedtests tell me your on 4g.
Call rogers they will help you . maybe its error on there end if not go to setting/ networks and select lte gsm

You need to ckeck your network settings first to see if your network mode shows LTE or not.

[Q] Australian Vodafone GN2 LTE settings disabled

Hi everyone I have a 2 week old SGN2 N7105T from Vodafone Australia.
As Voda in Australia doesn't have 4g yet it seems Voda/Samsung has disabled 4g LTE on the phone.
Which means I cannot use another sim from another carrier to reap the benefits of 4g.
In the settings I only have options for wcdm/gsm auto, wcdma only & gsm only.
Does anyone know if and how I can enable 4g?
I have thought about rooting and putting a different rom from a different country or one from another carrier in Oz (such as Optus 1800mhz) that has the 4g option.
Not sure if that will allow me to get 4g? (By using an Optus sim)
Thanks

Vodafone Australia doesn't have 4g network just yet. They are planning to upgrade by June/ july 2013. Thats why they disabled lte option on note 2 7105t for now. even if you are able to get lte option by flashing different rom you won't be able to get 4g network.
This is seriously against the consumer right as we pay premium price for 7105 only for lte reason. But we get the phone same as 7100

Your current provider has no bearings on the menu options, so the option will not change.

I think this is not correct. 4g connection is not disabled on the phone. Because the carrier does not support 4g at the moment, the LTE option in the menu will not be visible. That is the impression that I have got from a Vodafone NZ engineer.

Sorry for the late reply guys.
I installed a German Vodafone 4.1.2 rom from samfirmware which gave me the option to choose LTE, GSM, WCDMA then I put my mates Telstra 4g sim and 4g worked great. When. I was in 4g areas the 4g symbol showed on top and speeds were awesome. Now all we need is Vodafone to hurry up.

Sorry man you're flat wrong.
I flashed a rom I found on here for the N7100 that was confirmed compatible with my N7105-t From Voda and put in my telstra sim and 4G'ed my brains out.
It was getting crazy numbers for up and down speed in speed test so I know it was legit. That and the 4G logo up the top....

You used telstra sim and got 4g, because telstea have 4g networks. Nothing wrong with that. So how I am wrong here? I said getting 4g compatible rom doesn't mean you get 4g from VODAFONE because they don't have 4g. tell me if I am still wrong. Thankx

Issues with 4g

Okay all, I've got a T-Mobile M8 S-Off and Sim Unlocked using it on Straight Talk AT&T Sim. If I switch to LTE only I keep amazing 4G service but if I don't over half the time in the same area I'm on H. Any idea why this is? Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere that switches to H if the LTE goes below a certain strength? With my Nexus 5 I never lose it so I am wondering also since I can set it as 4g only and keep service (but can't call out on LTE only setting) All help is appreciated.

That's about a UK cable provider possibly getting service disrupted due to 4G rolling out? Not sure how that helps? Maybe wrong link?

Just to make sure we're on the same page here, are you using the *#*#4636#*#* menu? If so, which settings have you tried?
On my Sprint M7, we had a similar issue where it would work great with "LTE only" selected from the menu, but that would mean no calls or texts. "LTE, CDMA" would hold LTE longer than the default setting (CDMA + LTE/EvDo auto) and allow for calls/texts, but if we lost LTE, we'd be stuck with 1X data.
If you haven't yet, try the "LTE, WCDMA" setting.

It needs to be 3845#*850# because its the D850 not the 855
My M7 had an option to switch from LTE auot to WCDMA/GSM Auto - no such luck on the G3?
LTE at work is so over saturated I get better speeds on WCDMA but I can't get my phone to switch besides doing the dialer method.

Tasker should be able to do this for you if the magic menu does not. You can even configure Tasker to automatically sense cell phone towers at work and convert to WCDMA, then auto-switch back to LTE once you are no longer in the vicinity of the cell phone towers. Just one of the many, many amazing and useful things Tasker can do for you.

4G HSPA + switch

Hi Guys:
Hi have a LG G3 from claro Puerto Rico I make some changes on the build prop and the bak is not there anymore. The phone now when on a call it says H and H+ but on normal use (Not in a call) it says 4G. Its the wrong way it should be 4G on calls and H and H+ on normal use. What could this be?
Thanks

Sounds like the international icons got activated. H and H+ stands for hspa and hspa+ and 4g represents Lte. Factory reset should put it back to normal. Or flashing stock ROM.

Official Cm11 m9 always shows 3g never 4g why?

Hey guys I just got a T-Mobile s4 in the mail yesterday to replace my lg p769. Thanks to the awesome guides on here I was able to unlock it for my Canadian wind mobile...took a long time dling stock firmwares to revert from 4.3 to unlock. Any who I installed official 4.4.4 and had 4g when I flashed cm11 m9 I am now always on 3g. This was the same on my p769 running cm11 4.4.4 always 3g. Anyone know if this is something I can fix? Thanks for any help. Oh just wanted to say I love this phone! Huge improvement from my lg p769!
Edit
Forgot to mention I check the APN and its setup correctly.

Does your carrier support 4G in your area? Reason is, GSM carriers in the USA show a 4G icon for 3G/H/H+.. Cm/aosp will show your true connection, meaning 3G for 3G, H for HSPA etc.
Thanks for the reply. My carrier does support 4g I'm in Canada on wind mobile.

Maybe it just doesn't support HSPA is your area? Just throwing it out as a possibility. What you can try is flashing back to stock firmware and checking the connection there. Not by the icon, but by the status info in settings. And by 4G are you referring to HSPA or LTE? Making sure we are on the same page here

Hey off to work but I will try flashing to stock when I get home. What do you mean by checking status info in settings? Wind is LTE as far as I know.
I might come off a bit draft here but I'm watching it switch back and forth between 3g, h, dc, but never 4g. I'm just confused...

The switching is normal, it's what it's supposed to do. Now as far as checking the connection, you go to settings, more, about device, status. Check where it says mobile network type and that will show your true connection on stock firmware. If it says UMTS or HSPA, etc, then that means you may not have lte coverage in your area or may need a new sim card

Yeah it looks normal. That's the same thing it does when you are on cm, it just shows the real data icons on cm. I would call your carrier and ask if there is lte coverage in your area
Thanks a lot I will do that, u have been a big help.
