Hello, I have a LG G3 D855 SEA V20c running 5.0. I'm looking for permanent fix for LTE. I'm located in Montreal, Canada running on the Rogers network. I recently rooted the phone . I'm looking for suggestions on how to best achieve this.
I have tried the 3845#*855# method but it has to be redone whenever the phone restarts also you get limited 4G coverage with this phone variant
Thanks,
John

Im just trying to help and apologize if you have already done this but i believe Rogers uses a slightly different apn setting for lte. I havent been with the carrier for over a year now so make sure you got the right settings! If it isnt that then im guessing you are referring to the difference in cellular bands. I do know that USA carriers use a different lte band than us canadians and that for the note 3 devices there was a way to unlock the qualcom chip to enable it but i have not seen such things for the g3 as of yet. Hope i helped:good:

Please check the signals that the 4G band for Rodgers runs on
Sometimes the D855 international variant does not include the signal band that LTE runs on

Hi thanks for your response. I'm using the lte apn and band 7. I get limited lte coverage mostly H and 3g
Then probably its a APN issue

So do you get lte sometimes? If so it may just be Rogers garbage lte coverage.

My note 2 get's excellent LTE coverage. I think I will flash it with the stock HK rom, I think I will have better LTE control and hopefully better coverage.

Quick question here:
Is this variant capable of working on UMTS 850mhz (Non domestic)? I live abroad, and i'm planning to purchase this variant. There is conflicting information all over the internet about this specific model's UMTS capabilities, so i thought i better ask here than anywhere else
Thank you all in advance!

I'm using it on the Bell network in Canada which uses UMTS 850/1900 frequencies. Many people are using it abroad, maybe someone in your area can confirm.

Mine shows H+ or just H. Since I'm using cloudy g3 rom i can edit the build.Prop to get an AT&T 4G symbol if i want. I've never had it show 3g though.
I'm wondering if anyone here has a D855 variant of the G3 in Canada yet? In theory it looks like it supports the 2600 band for LTE - can anyone confirm?

If you'r still looking for an answer, look here
If you have already bought, plz share your experience on network compatibility.
Ok, I just noticed your signature.. seems you went the T-Mobile route. Good call, supports everything. How much did it cost?

I have a t889v running rooted stock 4.4.2 build #kot49h t889vvludnh2, which is the newest build for my phone, i'm trying to mod the battery percentage, i want it to be larger in size so i can see it better. I have tried various mods on the exposed installer i.e. wanam etc. none seem to work, so i would like to use root explorer and change the setting in build prop, the problem is i don't know where to look. if anyone knows where i need to go and what lines to adjust it would be much appreciated. thanks in advance

Do you happen to know what is new with the t889vvludnh2 ROM? I can't find any information anywhere on this update. My assumption was that LTE was enabled. But I am not sure.

i don't see much deference between this and the last rom. I don't see LTE anywhere in the network selection it's still gsm or wcdma
edit: just went into service mode and there is awhole bunch 0f LTE bands, so it seems we have LTE now. For service mode type *#2263# into the dialer and you should see a screen come up with all the band selection. i'm on wind so we do not have LTE service so there is no way to test if LTE works.

I have a windmobile T889v unlocked as well. I am currently in the states and I tried a T-Mobile sim card and did not get LTE. Only 3G. Maybe the LTE bands enabled on our phones are only for the videotron LTE bands?
Hopefully, someone on videotron can chime in.
I will try to get hold of ATT sim card to try.

Which APN did you use? Which part of the US were you in? Not all areas are covered by LTE service.
I am in LA.
It was the APN that was pre-programmed into the T-Mobile sim card. I didn't modify anything. My buddies Nexus 5 was getting LTE and he didn't program any APNs either.
While at the same location when I swapped it in my T889V I only saw 3G (in settings > about I saw HSPA and HSPA+). But def not LTE.

I got a hold of an ATT sim card with LTE service, and only got 3G speeds. Tested the speed on the T889v and an LTE enabled phone with the speed test app. So on T889v def 3G(HSPA) speeds, while on the LTE device LTE like speeds.
Anyone know which LTE band videotron enabled? I thought it was Band 4 (AWS band).
The only other thing I can think of is that the I am using the Windmobile firmware update for T889V and perhaps the version for Videotron is different even though the baseband is the same version.
I had been assuming that Videotron, WIndmobile and Mobilicity were all using the same firmware since the baseband is exactly the same.
Anyone with Videotron T889V with stock baseband upgrade getting LTE speeds?

I am not getting 4G LTE. It is staying on H (hspa). I have the one plus one and get LTE.
The info online says this phone should have all of the bands required.
Any ideas.
Thank you
This is the 4gb ram 64gb ROM version

Check Settings - Mobile Network settings - Preferred Network Type and set it to LTE if you have this option and is not already set.
But I doubt that this is your problem. You bought the Taiwanese phone, didn't you? While OnePlus supports all ATT LTE bands (17, 4, 2), the Taiwanese Zenfone 2 doesn't support band 17 (nor ww model), which is otherwise typical for less inhabited aeries in the USA, but it seems that is widely used by ATT. Try the phone in the downtown or another city and you'll probably catch the LTE on other frequencies.
Yes I purchased it from Taiwan but all of the sites show so many bands for this phone. Asus does a terrible job with their model numbers. There are so many different versions with the same model number. There is a 4 g setting not lte and that is selected. I did pick up 4g while driving through part of the city.
Is there going to be a US model?
Thank you
Yes. There is a US model and its supposed to be released in the next month or so. The link below, click on specs, shows the LTE bands for each region. Clearly shows the Taiwanese model not having the 17 band.

That stinks. I took that page as it will work in all of these markets. Oh well
Thanks

Where in US are you?
There are some areas in the US that are only on LTE band 17. I suspect that's OP's issue.

I looked at it and TW, WW and US all have 1700 bands if that's what you are referring to. If not can you shed some light?

The topic is about bands not frequencies. There is nothing such as 1700 LTE band. Actually both USA and TW phones work on approximate LTE 700 MHz but bands are different because uplink and downlink are different. So TW model works on band 28 and US one on 17.

I see now. Tnx for the quick response. Hopefully I'm not outta luck when the phone arrives tomorrow from TW. Do you think that flashing later on a radio or baseband will solve this issue?
It's not that simple. Luckily Intel chip supports all LTE bands. But they must be activated in kernel too. Maybe someone will find the method to activate the missed ones. Otherwise you are not so bad. With TW phone you are short of only one LTE band of four major in the USA, Europeans missed 2 of 3.

Thanks again for that. I see a bright future for this. Appreciate all this info. And definitely will see u around.
CT and work in long island NY. I hit 4g LTE on my way to work but most of the time have hsta+ which is not terrible.
I'm stuck with NO data on my Zenfone 2 with T-Mobile.

Check your APN settings.
Should be
fast.t-mobile.com
make sure the dash is in there.

Frequency wise is matches everything AT&T needs, i just picked up my 4g/64gb TW model, i'll be playing with apn's to see if i can get lte to pop. Only getting H+ so far.
Correction, shipped with WW firmware, no 700mhz for us.
More - As posted above, this Taiwanese version is missing the LTE band 17. And there are some areas that this may be the only band available, so you will not have LTE in those situations.
Thanks so much.... I was having a heck of time here with my Zenfone 2 in Tucson AZ on T-mobile.... I was stuck on 2G... but updating the APN to fast.t-mobile.com and 2 reboots seems to have done the trick. So glad I don't have to EBAY this! THANKS AGAIN.... Loving this thing so far!
Well ****! This is where I am stuck win H+ on ATT.
No way around this huh unless someone does a new rom? Or is it hardwired?
Dear all,
I just have one question. Is there any way to have 4G LTE out of F180?
I've tried many ways, many basebands but all i have is H+
I really need a solution. Please!

Hey, Which country and network you are trying to get the LTE working on F180?
LTE work super fine on F180. It depend on the Network however, if you put the baseband of Europe and and try to get the LTE working in Asia on some network that not transmitting on those frequencies ofc it will not be working

Thank you.
but i've found out why.
Because I'm using the IMEI of E975 on my F180s, so that's impossible for me to use the 4g.
So i've restored my stock IMEI and 4G works fine!
