[Q] ATT Note on Tmobile network

Hi
I have a ATT Note 2 with a t-mobile sim in it with ATT rom/modem/etc. The HSPA worked for like 2 minutes and never worked again. 2g works fine.
Has anyone gotten 3g/3g+ working one ATT note 2 on the tmobile network?
I know note works but couldnt find an answer for Note 2.
Please advice!
Thanks

^^^^^^ 2nd this.
ready to acquire GN2 ATT from local CL. but since i use t-mo cheap 5gb data plan, i am not sure how to benefit the plan. just a thought, you said HSPA worked for 2 mins (or so..) ? did you do any browsing/data usage and get result ? or just monitor the signal bar switching from H+ to E ?

I did a speed test and got 5mbps download. I also have the 5gb plan. There must be a way to get it to work!

Has anyone tried flashing a t-mobile modem?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium

I did - it gave me no service

Did you tried flashing a T-Mobile ROM??

yes didnt work either..

@ vish :
another shoot in the dark, do you think it has a relation with the phone being unable to toggle to 3G / UMTS mode ? will you please flash the t-mo radio back and tried :
1) With phone on, take off back cover and press your SIM card so it releases from the spring. It won't come all the way out as it's blocked by the battery. This seems fine - I didn't bother trying to force it out as I didn't want to break anything...
2) Once you see the message that the SIM card is removed, go to the dialer and dial *#2263#
3) You should see a menu with band selections. The current setting is "Automatic". If you switch to "GSM All", you will be EDGE (2G). If you switch to "WCDMA All", you will be on HSPA+ (3G, though AT&T and others call it 4G).
4) Press the SIM card back into place until it clicks. For whatever reason the phone will not recognize it until you reboot. Upon reboot you should see your new setting in effect.

so with jedi ROM x 6.1.2, 4g signal stays intact ? can you please do speedtest & post it here ?
btw : this 4g signal, supposed to be H+ in t-mobile ? or is it just UI issue ?

Sorry for the late reply - i tried flashing tmobile model and I got either bootloop or no service. Even with the sim card out.
Any other ideas?

Are you sure you are in a refarmed area? Cause if not you will ONLY get EDGE

^^^ what he said. T-Mobile is refarming their network to be compatible with AT&T's 3G frequencies but only in certain cities right now. Check their website, it tells what cities. They may be testing in your area. Otherwise you'll only get edge because the note 2 can't do what the note 1 did. It's an exynos thing.

Has anyone tried this SIM card release thing to force 3G on t-mobile network on a AT&T Note 2 phone? did it work? or did I misunderstand this post to be a solution to getting 3G/4G on tmobile network?
Please help

Only edge will work. Get a t mobile device or switch to att.

[Q] No 3G (only LTE) on E980 CM11

Hi guys,
sorry if it's a noobish question or has been asked before.
I have a LG E988 and updated my stock LG firmware to Cyanogenmod 11 M6 snapshot version for E980. It works in every aspects, except of 3G. However I try to assign my 'Preferred network type' to '3G', it only works on LTE network.
It seems like it's missing the 'driver' or firmware for 3G modem. Is it possible?
Thanks for help.

I am running m6 and selecting the 3g network works fine. I think LTE can also be toggled in the quick settings panel, perhaps you could try and turn it off from there.

I tried that (I am aware that there is a 'mobile network' on off switch AND there is the 'LTE' on off switch), not working. I even tried the "*" *4636*"*"* method of preferred network, no luck.
Could it be because this edition is aimed at LTE or this is ridiculous? Or is it a possibility that my model is E988 not the 980?

SOLVED
Thanks guys, it is solved now.
My dearest Service Provider, Telenor Hungary has a dual APN settings: 'hypernet', which apparently provides LTE only, and normal 'net', which is a 2G-3G-LTE solution.
Strange.
Thx for the help, though.

LG G4 not showing LTE or 4g icon

I've got this issue where the icon of 4g and LTE not showing on my H818P (G4 dual sim) only got H, H+, 3G and E
I've doubled check the LTE bands and it's compatible here in Saudi Arabia
I tried to enter the code *#*#4636#*#* and open the phone information menu but I get "This Application does not work on this device"
I tried some apps from the market but with no luck .
does anyone got an idea or a fix for that, I really like the phone and I hate to return it since it's crucial feature to me

i got the same problem, im here in abu dhabi and i cant see the 4g icon or h+

I also do not get 4g LTE even though my model is supposed to support the band's of LTE my network uses. It's a shame but them again he speeds I get on HSPA+ are really not that bad. I think I will learn to live with it. Hopefully someone can come up with a way to enable more bands or unlock something that is blocking 4g. When I do connect to 4g LTE I can't send text messages so that's a no go.

The code is 277634#*#
Make sure you got the obvious set - network mode set to edge/wcdma/lte
Make sure provider data plan allows 4g, some plans/packages are restricted to 3g.

Well, I've tried everything.
At the end I've changed my sim card to a new one. It didn't work in the beginning but in a day or so it got LTE.
Hope it helps

Hi All,
I updated my LG G4 yesterday and i have a similar issue. the difference is i cannot connect to the 4G network. After i enable mobile data, nothing happens and i dont see the 4G sign. How did you get past this, did you factory reset or is there another way?
I tried to enter the code *#*#4636#*#* and open the phone information menu but I get "This Application does not work on this device"
Ideas?

Mine did the same. Go to "settings", then "networks", then "more", then scroll down to "mobile networks", then "system select". I switched from 'Global" to "LTE/CDMA" My lg g4 now says 4g lte

Pls help me fix my LG G3 issue. I can send messages and calls but cannot connect to the internet. No H+ or 4G sign on the network icon even I'm on internet settings. The issue even I changed my sim card.

Enable bands

My friends has a g920p and wants to enable some bands so lte from telcel can work now he has only H+. Can that be done. I know that the s3 can with some magic. Thanks
Enviado desde mi SM-N920C mediante Tapatalk

Just put the phone on automatic in mobile network settings and set up two apns one for hspa and another for lte but make sure the lte apn has the bearer option set to lte the other just leave it how it is.

Didnt get it my friend.... here in mexico we use same apn for 3G or 4G LTE. We just need a sim v6.x and will get the lte bands.

I know how to do this, but you would need to have the MSL number, if you don't then Google idoneapps, this guy sells an app that unlocks phone and extract that number.

So i need the msl number so how can i get it. Friends phone is already unlock.
Enviado desde mi SM-G920F mediante Tapatalk

MSL number is needed to edit data settings in sprint hidden menu. Install shortcut lite master and then search for PST, launch that application. Then look for ##Data#menu. You'll see there if your LTE is enabled or not. If it is not the only way to enable it is having MSL number.

Hidden Menu
there is no need for app for shortcut. Go to setting and go to Activate this device. Phone will load some info then look at top right for MORE. Click on it then click on PST. This will take to hidden menu,

To get LTE working all you have to do is create two separate APN's one with your regular APN settings and another that is identical APN settings but on the "Bearer" setting put it on LTE and you're good to go also make sure your phone is set to automatic and not gsm / umts

what you stated here is correct. but have you tried it yourself?
I did, but there issue with send text messages. incoming sms works, outgoing - no.
there is no need to set to automatic. in service menu there is point where you can set preferred network type LTE_GSM_UMTS., but again, sms does not work.

No clue maybe do ##72786# it will reset the phones modem settings and it will nag about activation again and relock the phone but I did it since I can unlock it myself again and never had an issue.
Weird thing is that my phone after unlock it wanted activation popup and then it actually went through and it went away with my T-Mobile sim.

Ok found something out for some reason if you do not get LTE after setting it to Automatic switch to LTE/CDMA let it reboot and Reswitch it to Automatic reboot again then LTE+GSM_WCDMA should work.

Do you mean in service mode select cdma/lte then reboot and then go back to service mode n select gsm/wcdma/lte? Because ive been trying that fkr hkurs since reading your post lol. If this works your a beast . We need a gsm rom for this phone tho

George, do you have a legit way to get lte working on our device ? I haven't seen any proof from anyone claiming lte working on att or tmobile.

hmmm, been in the same boat with T-Mobile and a G920P, with only 3G being picked up but after switching it to automatic, it picked up LTE! Thanks for the poiter. However, have you been able to get MMS enabled or working as I seem to have issues with that and not sure why it isn't downloading the messages. Not sure if I need to give T-Mo a call and get something enabled or what. BTW, how did you manage to make that annoying activation screen go away as the moment I got it unlocked and popped in my sim card, it can't ever activate, but works fine though

any one succeeded in unlocking bands
Has anyone had any success enabling additional bands on a Sprint S6? Basically the bands it comes unlocked with are useless for Europe 4g and would love to unlock bands 3, 7, 20, 28, however 3 & 7 would be enough.

Same here. seems to me Samsung does not give us open source to edit Exynos settings. As I'm aware, our phones' hardware is capable to get those bands
