Hi All,
I got LG G3 D855 international version from eBay last week, I'm wondering if I can get LTE, or H+ network on the phone. On "Network Mode I can see "GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto" listed , when I choose it the signal bars on the notification area start looping, after that it switch back to "GSM/WCDMA" option !
I added a new APN for LTE , but still not working on LTE.
According to T-Mobile coverage map , my area is support 4G /LTE network . The phone is rooted , software version: V10b-GLOBAL-COM (For Hong Kong)
I can get 10-12MB download speed on H, I guessing it will be a way faster on H+ , or LTE.
Any idea about how to get LTE to work?
Thank you,
I'm surprised HSPA is even working, you must be in an area where they moved it to 1900 (Band 2). The D855 model doesn't support the AWS band, also known as Band 4 or the 1700 frequency (so says GSM Arena anyway) . This band is where T-Mobile has their primary network deployments these days. That means no HSPA+ (that's only on Band 4, not Band 2), and no LTE at all.
Bottom line is I don't think you want to be using the Euro D855 model on T-Mobile USA network. Not the right tool for the job.

I think it should still work. Frequencies tmo supports (straight from website):
4G LTE : Band 2 (1900 MHz), Band 4 (1700/2100 MHz), Band 12 (700 MHz)
4G HSPA+: Band 2 (1900 MHz), Band 4 (1700/2100 MHz)
3G HSPA: Band 4 (1700/2100 MHz)
The phone supports 2100MHz and 700MHz, and not 1900 or 1700. I just did a speed test and get 4Mbps reporting it used HSPA+. If that works, I'm not sure why LTE wouldn't unless it *has* to have the 1700 to get LTE.
Edit: here's some info on the 700MHz band http://www.spectrumgateway.com/t-mobile-700a-spectrum. I'll try it when I'm on vacation. I live in NC unfortunately.
Hi, I use LG G3 D855 and looking for solution to get LTE on T-Mobile USA. After some research inside the forum, I decided to try to use CyanogenMod (CM 12.1) on my system.
It works well and now I can enjoy LTE on T-Mobile network, even though not pretty stable yet, but I am good with that since the OS still ongoing development.
You can try to download the OS on Cyanogen official website, and use the latest update available.
In order to confirm if you get LTE signal, beside check on your LTE sign, you can use LTE Discovery apps whenever you lost LTE connection and try to reconnect on an LTE signal.
Oh, forgot to mention, I am located in College Station, TX.
Beware: LTE Band 4 (1700/2100 combo) it's not the same LTE Band 1 (2100 only) that LG G3 D855 supports. Better talk using band numbers not frequencies.
So I've got a G3 D858HK and would like to get it on the T-Mobile LTE network if possible. The Wikipedia article says that the network supports the following bands:
Frequency Band Band Number
700/2100 MHz AWS 4
700 MHz Block A 12
1900 MHz PCS 2
The D858HK supports 1800/1900/2300/2600 according to the box, but in the "hidden" menu it offers both Band 4 and Band 2. I've tried both and neither seem to work. I was hoping Band 2 would allow it to work, but no joy. Is it a hopeless cause?
How did you reach this hidden menu?
I want to enable LTE band 20. Is it possible?
Hey,
Is there anyway that I can change the bands on my E9+ to use the U.S. AT&T LTE bands?
These are the bands that I Need: AT&T 4G HSPA and HSPA+ use 850Mhz(Band 5) and 1900Mhz(Band 2) bands but it all depends on area if they own a license. LTE uses Band 17(700Mhz), Band 5(850Mhz), Band 2(1900Mhz), Band 4(1700/2100Mhz) currently.
Thanks in advance..
Hello all,
I have problem with my phone (e6883) always choosing band 2600mhz after a while on allowing it to access data when band 20 (800mhz) is a lot stronger in my place.
Does anyone know how to force it to stay on band 20?
I have tried the:
*#*#INFO#*#*
*#*#SERVICE#*#*
things.
Also I am using dual sim if it changes anything.
i have unlocked my Huawei B310s-925 router this method but it's no service for FDD band sims and my router not in frequency lock, and only TDD B38 and B40 bands are only working
how can i fix this problem and add FDD band
please help me
