When I used stock Kit Kat on my Note 3 it always had problems connecting to LTE. You would always have to disable the radio and then enable it again to connect. No matter which update from Jelly Bean on, it was never fixed. It caused lots of problems with Texting/MMS and other Data connections.
For a long while now I have used Effortless Rom and LTE connections have worked flawlessly on his rom. No problems with Texting or MMS or other data connections. It just works.
Is the LTE switching and connecting been fixed on the Stock T-Mobile Lollipop update?
Anyone who has updated to Stock T-Mobile Lollipop, if you could kindly comment on this would be greatly appreciated. I really don't want to deal with my phone not sending/receiving text/mms and the browser not connecting while on LTE again. Having to toggle Airplane mode on and off was such an annoyance.
Thanks.

I'm having this very problem on the new 5.0 update. It's so frustrating and random. I have to do the Airplane Mode trick also. I really hope this gets sorted out.

Are you on Stock ROM? I am on TEKHD's URv2 ROM and I have no issues. I didn't have that issue on DomPop either. I think its best if you are on the newest firmware and also flash per directions.

Come on over and give DomPop URv2.1 or DomPop v.5.0.8 a try. Make sure you update at least your modem to FOB6 and you shouldn't have any problems. We have great service and LTE connectivity. Just to make sure, you do have an N900T Note 3 correct?

Yes N900T and latest modem, CSC, and everything else. I'm on DomPop URv2.1, but I've been having a different LTE problem on THAT ROM now, lol. I can't connect to Netflix on my mobile network. So weird

I went back to touchwiz after a year of cyanogen and I flashed it through odin mobile. I can't toggle the wifi button on. It keeps going to off. My data works though. Any ideas on how to fix it?

There is no Stock Touchwiz 4.4.2 for the T-Mobile variant of the Note 2. I suggest you search in the thread of whatever 4.4.2 ROM you installed. Good Luck.

I got it from this website. I'm am from Canada and my phone is from wind mobile. I have been able to use tmobile roms variant on my wind phone with no problems so far.

Again, I am really not trying to be argumentative, and reaaly want you to have the support you are looking for. All I am saying, though, is that T-Mobile still has not released their official version 4.4 KitKat for this particular Samsung T-Mobile Note 2. I see that Wind Mobile released their version in May of this year. I am just stating that there is nos such thing as stock 4.4 KitKat running with a Touchwiz interface on a T-Mobile Note 2.
We have all been anxiously waiting for that release for at least a couple of months now. Sprint, Verizon, AT&T, and even US Cellular have all announced thier release of 4.4 KitKat on their versions of the Note 2. Your Wind Mobile provider has also released their KitKat as you point out in your link. Unfortunately T-Mobile has not yet released that software.
I have reviewed the link you provided and it seems that you are correct and Wind Mobile has your official release of KitKat for the Note 2. However, I am not sure how we can help in the T-Mobile forum, since we don't have that official firmware yet. Thousands of folks here sure wish we did! Sorry, bud.
Is there any roms on 4.3/4.4 with wi-fi calling? I really need the wi-fi calling for my daughters note 2. Any help? The phone has been on 4.1 ever since.

There are several 4.3 ROMs in the Development section. T-Mobile has not released a 4.4 rom for the T889 to date precluding wifi calling on KitKat ROMs on the Note 2.

Aside from the stock 4.3 rom, there is also Mr. Robinson's Rom which is rooted stock. You can choose the 4.3 (MK7) version. It supports wifi calling. It is found here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975560
There is also one more modified stock Rom by Ciphercodes. It is also based on stock 4.3 (MK7). It can be found here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2636552
Both of these support Wifi calling. Coug 76 is right, there is no KitKat 4.4 version from T-Mo yet so there are no 4.4 Roms that have wifi calling. But either of these listed above will do fine.
Good luck.
Hello,
Is there any kit kat touchwiz ROM available which is somewhat stable? I would like to be able to use tap n pay. I have a Verizon NOte 2 with such a ROM and it works great. I am upset that it is so hard to find a ROM for the tmobile phone.
I guess Tmobile never released kitkat for this phone?
Lol .. :sly:
Use S.W.A.R.M (Stock) or Test Rom 1.2 (it has some S5 apps - does not have wifi calling) follow all instructions for installing.
Sorry SWARM isnt KitKat. Rom of Thrones is - which is the base for my Test Rom 1.2 - Good Luck.

Thanks,
I did try test ROm and my wifi wasn't working. I now know that its because I needed to update my baseband .. Which I have now done. SO ill give one of those a try.
I also understand that we can load AT&T roms on this phone as long as we are using the T889 Radio,,, so I am looking at those roms as well

Yes. You can also try AGNi Kernel if Wifi still isnt working. From my experience 4.3.0 is the best so far.

I had to flash the wifi fix. Im not sure if flashing a kernel would have fixed my wifi problem. As I understand; the issue is that my phone has the original bootloader that it was shipped with. it doesnt have the 4.3 OTA bootloader therfore I had to install this wifi fix.
SO now I have a Tmobile T889 running an ATT touchwiz rom... I have working LTE(LTE worked with Tmobile roms too). To get the LTE to work I had t flash the latest tmobile radio. My Google wallet tap n pay works again. I am extremely happy about this setup!
Oh... and I am using AT&T go as the service... not Tmobile

Yes flashing a kernel would have fixed the wifi. Flashing the patch wouldve probably made things worse to be honest..now the only way to revert the patch is to odin back to the original firmware...
Im on 4.1.2 Bootloader myself. Havent upgraded to anything above that..i only flash kernels and the modems. Works fine for me. Only issue is the charging while phone is off doesnt work.
Which Rom did you use?
anyone has the problem with data connection? I am using 4.4.4 with ARHD 22.2. My carrier is H2O Wireless (belong to ATT) with 4G LTE plan but the network signal is poor when i go in some buildings (My friend using iPhone with the same carrier and plan does not meet this issue) and the data connection is always showed H (regardless where i am) so the speed is poor too. Are there anyone facing the same problem? I am thinking about switching to another roms

I think it is the ROM.
I Googled "ARHD 22.2" to see if it may be a Lollipop ROM and if it might be that your firmware needed to be updated from 4.4.4, but all I got with that search was wifi and data issues.
Flash a new one. If you wish to remain on a stockish ROM, flash MaximusHD. That's a solid one.
If you want to do some tweaks and mods with those options built into the ROM already, and available with a simple click, ViperOne is great.
I tried Lollipop rom before but the battery drain is a big issue to me thats why I switched back to Kitkat and its battery life is totally different. So which rom do you recommend for kitkat?

Yes, you would need Lollipop firmware. You could flash the 4.4.4 version instead if you want. That was really solid. You can download it from here.
Hi All,
I've been reading a lot of the development post and could not fix my issue yet. Hopefully someone can help here.
I have a Rogers d852 with kitkat and rooted.
I'm trying to install a candy5 lollipop custom rom and when I do that, I cannot connect to the roger internet.... it also does not allow me to connect to 5ghz wifi until I install the lp_modem... anyways, after installing the modem, the wifi works but still no roger internet at all... even after selecting the right APN.
I also tried installing the modem and then the stock lollipop rom and it works fine....
when I put the candy5 rom on after, I lose the networks again...
What am I missing here to have custom roms other than the stock lollipop rom working with the right modem?
thanks
My info
Lg g3
my info cont
d854 10b (what it said when I had kitkat installed).
provider is rogers, canada
update
I decided to try another roms too...
Cyanogen mod had the same issue... no internet at all. even with the baseband instaled prior to it.
update 2
I'm getting close...
with the rom bliss pop (also 5.1.1 based) I can get internet H. but still no LTE...
if someone can help me on getting the lte, I appreciate.
thanks again

I have a d852 on Rogers and the rom AICP works fine with LTE. I got 2 random reboot though in less than a day. Battery life is way better than Cloudy G3 2.5.
After s second random reboot with AICP, I went back to cloudy g3 though. The wife said she called but nobody picks up the call. But I had the phone on me the whole time and no call whatsoever. So I have doubts on the rom
all good with blisspop except lte
I'm realy happy with the image I have... Blisspop 3.9.
the only problem is the LTE... but I get it is a problem on all the images based on 5.1.1 I tested... at least with this I get H+...
other than that, all works fine so far... and I tested pretty much everything I need...
can also say that battery life is 2x better than with kitkat...
again, if someone is able to help me with the lte on rogers, I appreciate.
thanks
it works now!
not sure why... but LTE works now... tested at 50mbits!
more funny is that I did not change anything...
today I when for some shopping and when I was checking the phone I notices that for the 1st time with this image it had LTE instead of H/H+.
I thought that perhaps somehow at how I had lost LTE reception... but no, for my surprise, when I got home there it was again... LTE.
