[Q] LTE support - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General

Hi,
Can anyone confirm if Galaxy Note already have LTE for India Market ? Currently LTE support is not available, but is expected to arrive soon around end of Dec 2011/Jan 2012.
Hence better to buy Galaxy Note with LTE.

LTE ?
Hi I just bought a Galaxy Note in Saudi, where they have LTE, but I don't know how to check if the phone have LTE, I found some things in the settings, but it fails when I click it. but maybe I need a 4G LTE sim card...
does any one know haw to check if the phone Has LTE ?

[Q] LTE Version

I think I've convinced myself to get one of these, but am wondering if I am correct in my understanding that there are 2 versions coming: One with LTE and one without.
If that is correct, will the LTE version still do everything radiowise (GSM/HSPA+ etc) and just also add LTE capabilities to the mix?
Finally, I am working in Sweden at the moment, I assume the LTE version will work with Telia's network (in LTE mode)?

This is what me and a lot of other people are wondering about. The marketing rep for Samsung said in a video that it will have HSPA+ AND LTE but does that mean two different models? Or that the capabilities of both are stock? The spec sheets don't say anything about LTE on any of the pre-order sites I've found but the samsung page says that it is an LTE device. I'm completely confused. I wanna buy the unlocked unbranded version but not if it doesn't include LTE...
I saw from somewhere that the Korean version will have LTE support. No information about NFC.

Yeah we get LTE + NFC for korean market but it sucks when you leave the country and realize it's not gonna work

James,
Why does it not work when you leave the country?
Also, do you know if the LTE+NFC version does everything the non-LTE version does (eg HSPA+)?
I'm thinking of just ordering one in from S Korea if it does....
I too want to know: HSPA+ AND LTE or is it one or the other but not both?
Thanks,
Any further update on LTE now that there has actually been some delivery ?
Is there a S Korean ship date for the LTE version?
Yes, very good question! I have been following this release closely the last couple of days, but no words on this issue!
It's really strange, as this is the one real deal breaker for me. No way I am going to buy this device without LTE.
But don't you guys think that they are releasing this in the beginning of next year when first movers have bought this and the fuzz about the product stops? I guess so, unfortunately. It's basically the same story with Galaxy S II / LTE version.

I recently bought one from www.android-enjoyed.com and they shipped from hongkong to me. It's perfect and in a sealed box. Also available at www.gsmnation.com. Price is the factor which vendor to go with. Check if at&t support the LTE bandwidth (800, 1800, 2600). Good luck.
unless you're going to be staying a lot in Europe, the N7105 isn't going to be a particularly better phone for you with its Euro/ETSI bands for LTE. The Note2 is multiband GSM and 3G (UMTS) anyway.
And LTE isn't fully deployed across Europe either, so by the time it is, the Note3 will be here, so I would say buy a cheaper Note2-7100 and save your money!
Or buy an US variant and flash a custom ROM on it.

Just as Victorator mentioned, just get the AT&T Note 2 and flash international firmware onto it. The N7105's LTE hardware is not compatible with domestic North American LTE service, so it won't work. Fortunately, the AT&T/Rogers i317(m) Note 2's are virtually identical to the N7105 from a hardware standpoint, with the exceptions of differing LTE radios and lack of FM radio in the case of the North American Note 2's. That's why it's so easy to flash the international firmware onto them.

Niether of those are selling cheap N7105 compared to
www.negrielectronics.com
Who are also more suitably based for the OP in the US.
The 7105 LTE bands aren't the US bands but alot are buying the 7105 for its faster 3G capabilities (DC HSPA+) rather than for its 4G
Not sure whether its an advantage to have that feature in US though.
For the International version N7100, if I put in the T-mobile sim, do I only get "edge" and not "3G" ?
And with AT&T, do I at least get the 4G? I am debating to either get the AT&T one of the international one.

I'm in the same boat. I'm moving from Japan to the America, and I have an unlocked N2 with docomo. I knew off the bat that the LTE wouldn't be compatible, but didn't even consider the 3G. Hate to have such an awesome device on an ancient network.
I am using AT&T myself. I just want to make sure with the N7100 international unlocked version. Will I get 4G , I know LTE is out of luck.
Can anyone confirm this?

Almost same here. I will be coming to the US next month with international N7100 unlocked.
And I am wondering which provider will give me maximum speeds (AT&T or TMo or someelse like Straighttalk)

If you have the INT GT-N7100 then you will want to use AT&T but go with Straight Talk they use att network. I use Straight Talk and get dl speeds of 6-8 up of about2-4. And its cheaper than att.

[Q] MetroPCS and 4G LTE

Hello all,
I am new to XDA, so I apologize if this question has been answered before. I am coming from an iPhone 4s to (Hopefully) a Note 3; however I need to figure out what model to get. I have Metro PCS, so I would need an unlocked model. But my question is which should I buy to be able to use their 4G LTE towers / data speeds? I saw on another thread that one note 3 doesn't work with USA 4G LTE, so you can understand my concern.
TL;DR: I have metroPCS in california (USA) and want an unlocked Note 3, which model do I need to buy to use 4G LTE
You Need SM N9005 international variant & is fully unlocked.You can use LTE on that

Samsung testing LTE model of Galaxy S4 mini (GT-I9197)

Samsung testing LTE model of Galaxy S4 mini (GT-I9197) in India?
Samsung is the leading smartphone manufacturer in India, but none of the company’s phones support LTE connectivity in the country. However, with India set to get its first LTE networks in the coming months, it’s a lucrative market that will see consumers demanding LTE smartphones as time goes by (in fact, the Galaxy S5 has numerous bad reviews on India’s leading online retailer due to the fact that its Exynos chip does not support true LTE connectivity.) According to import tracking site Zauba, Samsung recently shipped the Galaxy S4 mini LTE to India for testing, hinting that it is in the process of testing devices with the LTE networks in the country.
In India, only one carrier (Airtel) currently offers an LTE network, but the issue is that India uses the TD-LTE band, which is currently only supported by the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c (the HTC One M8 supports it as well, though HTC has said that it will need a software update to actually work on local LTE networks.) The Galaxy S4 mini LTE that Samsung is testing in India won’t be sold in the country, but the company could be testing the device with custom hardware so that it can prepare the launch of LTE devices in the future.

[Q] SM-G900H no LTE option

Hi,
I'm new on here so I'm not sure if anyone can help. I have looked around other threads but have not found the solution for this specific model. I purchased the Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900H through Amazon.co.uk last year assuming this would support 4G. However, I'm now just finding out that this might not be the case. As shown in the screenshot below, I don't have the LTE option in the Network Mode menu. I called my provider Three.co.uk and they said to do a factory reset (which I did) and then they said to update to Android 5.0 (which I did) but still no luck.
I prefer not to root the device and break the warranty but I will if there is no choice. I have also attached a screenshot with the details of the build number / kernel etc.
Please bear in mind that I am not very experienced at this so please explain what I have to do in plain English.........
Thanks so much!!!!!!!
@jeroenmw g900H doesnt support lte/4g
I have SM-G900H model and it doesn't have 4G LTE.
You can check its specifications online.
Just google model name!
So even rooting the device will not work?

No, it 'll not work even after rooting...
Because its not in hardware!
Get SM-G900F model if u want to use 4G/LTE
The SM-G900H is the variant of Samsung Galaxy S5 that is built using the in-house eXynos Octocore system chip. This variant does not have hardware support for 4G LTE networking.
For 4G LTE support you need one if the Galaxy S5 variants based on the Qualcomm Quad core system chip. Only the Qualcomm-based handsets have hardware support for 4G LTE.
If you have the option to return your phone for a refund I suggest you do that and get one of the other variants (preferably the SM-G900F for the UK). One of those should work with your carrier's LTE support.
How to use 4g in Galaxy S5 sm g900h??? Please help me
I am with a SM-G900H, and it have a 4G sign on the back cover, how it not have 4g ?
