Hello! I got my ATT Note 4 yesterday and 4g LTE works fine but for some reason I can't get 3g to work on it. I tried going to "mobile networks" but i couldn't find the "network mode" so i can't choose which I want so i used the code "*#*#4636#*#*" and tried setting it to "WCDMA Preferred" then "WDCMA Only" and "GSM/CDMA Auto" but i still don't get 3g.
My mobile carrier is Cricket
Thanks for reading!
Y do want to 3G 4G faster

Just a guess, you might not have 3G APN setting in your phone. Try different sim and test 3g on it. If it works then u need settings or new sim. If dont then take your phone to carrier customer center and they will help you.

Hello,
I'm having an issue with the rom I have (AOKP Ktoonsez) when I turn on data I get H+ at the top. How do I get LTE? I went into that menu by putting in *#*#4636#*#* in the dial pad and putting it into GSM/LTE, but I still get H+. I'm with Virgin Mobile Canada. Here's my APN info:
Name: Bell
APN: pda.bell.ca
Proxy: web.wireless.bell.ca
Port:80
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
Server: Not set
MMSC: http://mms.bell.ca/mms/wapenc
MMS Proxy: web.wireless.bell.ca
MMS Port: 80
MCC:302
MNC: 610
Authentication Type: Not set
APN Type: Not set
Anything missing? This rom does have LTE and I went into the FAQ page, the dial pad method was the only way we could turn LTE on. Thanks.

I'm on att so I'm not entirely useful in the regard to the fact tour on virgin, but are you absolutely sure that apn set up is for lte, that's the first thing I would check.

Yea I know you can get lte working just do a search there is a thread on it and it has everything you need to get it working.

Delete all your apns. Do a new one for bell lte. Then changed preferred network to lte/gsm. Restart phone right after. You should be able to start seeing 4G now. Make sure you remember to restart phone after you change the settings.

Alright, I think I'm going to call them to get the LTE APN in case I am actually missing something. Otherwise I may need a SIM card change.

In the *#*#4636#*#* menu under phone information, try setting it to LTE only and see what happens. I keep getting H+ or less on my CM10 rom unless I do that even when I'm in an LTE area.
Make sure you have LTE/HSPA enabled in Settings>Wireless and Networks (More...)>MobileNetwork>Network Mode. Sometimes when I flash a new rom it changes. I have it HSPA only because saves battery.

When I set it to LTE only, I lose signal to my carrier does that mean anything at all? And for the options under settings I only have a choice between two, GSM/WCDMA/LTE and GSM/WCDMA preffered.

Pick the lte mode and click the lte apn and restart your phone right away. It should work right after. Btw if it says 4g,it means lte is working

Also a Virgin Mobile Canada customer and my S3 has NEVER said 4G or LTE in the signal bar.... H+ is what it displays on stock touchwiz, AOKP CM10...
I'm a Virgin Mobile Canada customer as well. I've set my preferred network type to LTE/GSM auto (PRL) by accessing the "Testing" menu (dial *#*#4636#*#*) and have selected LTE/GSM/WCDMA by going into my mobile network settings. The only two modes I can select from are LTE/GSM/WCDMA and GSM/WCDMA preferred
I've noticed the following:
-most of the time I'm on either the HSPA or HSPA+ network
-there are times at which my notification bar shows 4G (which I assume is LTE) but it definitely isn't as frequent as when my phone was unrooted and on stock
-this one is weird: occasionally I lose total mobile and data connection for about a few seconds and a "warning" icon shows up in the top left corner of the notification bar. When I expand notifications it says that the connection to the VIRGIN mobile network has been lost..or something along those lines. I'm usually able to reconnect automatically within a few seconds but this is definitely a weird one since I've noticed it only after flashing Task&Ktoonsez AOKP. Anyone encounter anything similar to this?

Hmm maybe this is just Virgin Mobile problem? Thing is the ROM I was on before, (Team Insomnia JB Touchwiz) it showed 4g when I turned on the mobile data but I was getting no where near LTE speeds. I also tried switching to LTE mode and clicking the LTE APN and reboot, but all it does is go back to WCDMA Preferred mode. I got a SIM replacement from Virgin Mobile but still no luck after this.
EDIT: I think I got it, if you recently were on a Virgin Mobile Supertab or changed from an older phone that didn't have LTE, make sure that Virgin Mobile systems know that you own a Galaxy S3. I went into my Virgin Mobile "My Account' and it showed my phones it only listed the HTC Legend I had few months ago, but not the S3 itself, and beside it saying this device runs on a HSPA+ network. I'm getting this fixed on Monday so I'll see what happens then. If somebody can do it sooner though if they have the same issue, that would be great too.
I recently bought an unlocked Galaxy S3 (T999) and have set it up for use with Straight Talk, but I have an issue with the phone auto selecting network operators (settings>more settings>mobile networks>network operators). My straight talk sim will only work when the At&t network operator is selected. My phone, however, will automatically switch the network operator to T-Mobile when my signal for At&t is poor, even though I can't roam or use it. This is annoying because it makes it appear that I have signal bars, when in reality with At&t I don't.
Is there any way to disable the phone automatically changing these settings, and is there a way to edit the Default Setup option, it's currently greyed out and unchangeable. Thanks for your help!

I only got edge at first too but I know I live in a refarmed 1900 MHz area so I went under settings to network operators and searched networks manually and chose tmobile rat:14 when it gave me my options. Now I get 4g umts- hspap. I use wifi while home and after I leave sometimes it will revert back to edge. I went into the hidden menu but I didn't see how to select band prefence anywhere so im lost on how to get lte to work.
I know at&t and tmobile use the same lte band I just cant figure out how to select it to make it work. Try selecting setting>networks>tethering and networks>mobile networks>network operators>search networks. A few different tmobile ones should pop up with rat:2 rat:3 and rat:14 underneath. When I selected rat:2 it only stayed on edge but all other options gave me 4g.Hope that helps to at least get you 4g working.

Ok that would be great if you can post the complete apn your using. I have the fast.t-mobile but maybe another part of mine is incorrect...
I am pretty sure for LTE to work on T mobile, you have to make sure the apn is set to fast.tmobile.com. Your Sim might be setting it to the default epc.tmobile.com, which will only give you HSPA+.

I appreciate the help but for some reason it still wont get lte. I have tried all the different apns I can find and after I enter it if it still only goes to 4g then I reboot. Is there anyway to select lte only from any hidden menus or an app or something?

on other phones, the following menu lets you pick what you want your data to be: *#*#4636#*#*, then pick lte/gsm auto from there.

I tried but it doesn't have the option to change the network mode. I actually just edited my build.prop to enable network mode under settings and it worked!!! I finally got lte by choosing lte/wcdma option. When all the options appeared my lte appeared to be shut off .So all I had to do was turn it back on. Huge thanks to MrDSL for the help.
After changing my network mode to lte wcdma my phone kept saying roaming notification off at the top of the status bar and all I could use was data ( lte at least) and wouldn't make calls and the network mode menu actually disappeared. So after putting in a at&t sim card and rebooting my phone about 20 times the network mode menu popped back up and allowed me to change my preference to gsm/wcdma/lte and luckly its working perfect now.
I have a g pro on tmobile but for some reason theres a few places where I don't get 4g or lte and the phone loosses signal for a min or two then I get E is this happening to someone else ?

Hello,
I have an open-line Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-M919v) and the problem is that I can't use the LTE feature of this device even though there is a sticker of LTE on the phone. The network mode option doesn't show LTE option as it only says WCDMA/GSM, WCDMA Only and GSM Only. I also tried to change the settings in *#2263# but selecting LTE changes the Signal bars to " Ø " I upgraded from Kitkat (4.4.2) to Lollipop(OTA) and still the LTE option on Network mode is missing.
I am using an LTE sim and also am very sure that I am in an LTE spot. The phone was from Canada but I don't know which network specifically it was subscribed to as it was only given to me.
Hoping to fix this problem as soon as possible, Thank you.
You should ask here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-tmobile
But probably there isn't anything you can do. You phone doesn't really support LTE. It support some bands, but your provider is probably using a different band for LTE. So your phone will never get LTE with that provider.
Choose "automatic" after dialing *#2263*
Worked for me.

I had a vzw s4 and was able to get lte in a hybrid att area. I had to use lte specific locked band in the options and would change to gsm or automatic when i left the hybrid area to be able to place calls etc. In the hybrid area everything worked fine.
I have a SM-G928V on t-mobile network and it works fine. According to SS website band 12 is supported unlike the S6 and the S6e.

Sorry. I rarely use txt & MMS. I pretty much use Hangouts and Viber to chat with everyone I know.
By the way, if touch tone DTMF is not working, try to change the DTMF from Short to Long in Phone settings.
I have a T-Mobile edge and edge plus, both have band 12. One of the offices i work at only gets band 12.

It's the same one that's everywhere online for TMO LTE, it's not device specific, in fact the same settings are used for all LTE enabled phones, even iPhones. I'd be shocked if it wasn't either the 1st or 2nd result after a Google search.
I once had Verizon Edge+, and used it on T-Mobile.
Add and use the following APN.
Name t-mobile US
apn
fast.-tmobile.com
mmsc http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile/mms/wapenc
apn type default,supl,mms
Leave all other settings as is.
For MMS to work, make sure you add "mms" in APN Type field.
Moreover, once in a while, you'll get an annoying popup saying that the sim card is not Verizon etc. If rooted, just use Titanium Backup and freeze the "activation" apk. If not rooted, use Package Disabler Pro, and the disable the aforementioned apk.
Good luck.
the issue is in you are using Verizon S6 Edge+ on Tmobile network, you can't use data while on phone call.
it doesn't pickup band 12, only works on band 4 etc, which loose the data if phone call picked up.'
is there any way around?

My note 3 did this going from verizon to tmobile. A workaround i found was to switch the network settings from 4g or global to 3g or 2g only and then make the call. Touch tone would work, then after hanging up switch network settings back to 4g or global. Hope this helps you.
