[Q] How to make LTE/4G stick!? - SOLVED

Hey!
I have the international D802 version and the "settings / tethering & networks / mobile networks / network mode" only shows 3 options, GSM/WCDMA; CDMA only; GSM only.
When I go into dialing *#*#4636#*#* or if I go into dialing 3845#*802# etc...to choose LTE/GSM/WCDMA! I can choose this mode and it works UNTIL I reboot, then it goes back to GSM/WCDMA!
Is there is anyway to make the LTE/GSM/WCDMA mode stick?!
Thanks!
EDIT: SOLVED
In build.prop change ro.telephony.default_network=9 from 9 to 11!
I got LTE settings in mobile networks menu. And it sticks after a reboot!
Thanks to @ejerez for the info in Here!

Heads up! It's solved in case anyone is interested!

Hi,
Thanks for the solution but I just need to check for the build.prop file, there are 2 similar lines as follows:
ro.telephony.default_network=9
& the other is:
#ro.telephony.default_network=9
Which do I change or do I change both? And do I need to change the permissions after changing it?
Thanks for your advice.

Man let me clarify that this solution worked for me on some ROMs and didn't work on other ROMs!
Both are the same, the # symbol in front of the expression makes it a comment and the program will disregard it!
So you can change only the first one, or to be safe you can change both. Nothing to lose!
Good luck!

D802 getting 4g to work

Heya.
Recently some networks in my country started supporting lte. Anyway i tried enabling it on my phone:
I tried those 2 numbers:
*#*#4633#*#*
3845#*802#
In both of them I can change the setting and I see its working, but when I go to mobile network settings it gets reset and the option is not shown there. I can actually see the network H sign disappearing+reappearing when I go to the settings...
I tried restarting the phone, no help.
How can I get my settings to not reset each time?
Thanks!

If you have root go into system/app and first back up and then delete lteconfigs apk and lteconfigs odex and that should make lte an option in settings

Hey, thanks for replying.
I see the lteconfigs.apk but not the lteconfigs.odex there

I deleted just the apk and the option appeared as you stated. Is it enough?

[Q] LTE on rooted note 3 N9005.

Hello I have my note 3 n9005 model. Recently i tried to enable lte via Service Mode using the code *#0011# but unable to enable LTE then finally i had to ROOT my note 3 and enabled LTE using ES File explorer. Now I can see lte/wcdma/gsm option but my phone is not detecting 4g signals though I can use 4g on my different phone at the same location. But unfortunately my note 3 is not detecting 4g signals, even I have tried to unroot+flash and re-installed the firmware but the problem is still exist. Kindly help me out.

@gns3555 I got the option with same method. But I havent tried using 3g, as there is no 4g network in my area.

Change with a root explorer of your choice (e.g. Root Explorer, Solid Explorer or EF File Explorer) the value “false” in file persist.radio.lteon (it's on root/data/property/persist.radio.lteon) into “true” by way of build-in text editor of the root explorer.

@Joku1981 @gns3555 I have done the same. The option is there but I haven't tested it on 4g network. I wonder why this option was disabled on such high end device.

@vndnguyen This code is not working on my note 3. I tried using *#0011# to go in service mode. And I checked in it. The Prefered mode is already set to 'GWL' and also the Band 4 is enabled. I used the ES File explorer to set the value "True".

Hey thanks for the info. I tried ur above mentioned steps and the option prefered is wcdma. I can also see "lte preference'' but how can I select this option. Because when i select the option lte/wcdma/gsm option in phone setting then my note 3 is only detecting 3g signals.

CM13 - LTE Enable

hi
how to enable LTE for CM13 or android 6?
or
for 5.1.1 (LMY48T) ?
how to get hybrid modem image...
thx all

For Android 5.1.1 you can use this flashable zip: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/general/4-4-3-nexus-4-lte-lte-tethering-hotspot-t2416822

thx

Thread is coming up as deleted now.

Anyone have a solution to this yet? I have the hybrid radio on my N4 that worked great with CM12 (provided LTE), but now that I'm on CM13 I'm stuck on 3G/HSPA+.
The "LTE enabler" version 2.14 has a check to make sure you're on Android 5 before it does its thing, so it doesn't work for Android 6. Is it safe to disable this check? I'll have to dig into the script and see what it's actually doing. I think it just flashes a hybrid modem image and then makes the build.prop changes to make LTE work (maybe also adds some APNs? Beats me). Hopefully all that is the same on Android 6.

you can disable that check i was in canada for a while and i was using frank aosp 6.0 with lte enabled

Actually, I don't think you can. Looking at the "nexus-4-lte-enabler-v2.14" script that changed the network mode, it makes changes to this file:
/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
However, that file doesn't exist on my Nexus 4 running the 12/30/15 nightly. Only "settings.db-backup" and "settings.db-journal" reside in that directory, and nothing else.
Did the preferred network setting move to a different DB in Marshmallow? I also noticed that if I enter the service menu via *#*#4636#*#*, I cannot change the Preferred Network Mode there (I can open the dropdown and pick something, but it doesn't change the "WCDMA Preferred" setting when the dropdown closes. It does nothing.)

Cm13 has a known bug , somebody forgot to put an entry into the framework apparently. The radio won't switch. See the thread over here ;

Any update on this? I see that the radio switch issue fix got merged a few days ago, and I do see in my build.prob that my preferred network mode is "9", even after rebooting.
But my phone always shows H+ or 3G next to the mobile data icon on the taskbar. Even if I go into the 4636 menu and change to LTE/GSM or LTE/CDMA (which I can now do because taht bug was fixed), it STILL shows H+ or 3G (and frequently rapidly bounces between H+ and 3G).

The fix has been merged , 5th of january or later builds don'T have that bug. But i've seen some corrections on the code suggesting that wcdma and gsm should be enough. If they merge that then we won't be able to use LTE. 3g and gsm would be fine though.

Anyone figure out a way to enable LTE on the Nexus 4 in CM13 yet? Really don't want to use some random guy's AOSP custom build if I can avoid it. I want CM features!

So after hunting around, i decided to check why the LTE is not persisting after reboot and tried and old trick: change the build.prop to READ-ONLY and remove the write flags in any file explorer (ES/ROOT etc)

It's not that LTE doesn't stick on reboot. It's that it cannot be enabled AT ALL in CyanogenMod 13.

Can you tell me what CM13 build you're using at the moment, and what your build.prop looks like? If you don't mind?
No matter what I do, I cannot get off of 3G/H+ on CM13. Not in the 4636 menu (I can change to LTE/GSM auto, but no effect), and not in the Cellular Networks settings (only choices in the GUI are 2G and 3G).
I had no problem using LTE on CM11 or CM12. I'm on the same hybrid modem image I've been using forever (2.0.1700.33).
Thank you for your help!

So I think I have figured out what's going on. After loading CM13-20160210-nightly, I did *#*#4636#*#* and changed "Set preferred network type" to LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL), turned off then on the radio and saw only H+ come up. I clicked the options menu (top right 3 dots) and under "Select radio band" i noticed that the LTE Frequencies are not listed!! I added the 3 lines manually to build.prop then saved it as read only too just in case but it did nothing so I think we know why the LTE isn't showing up now. Only AUS, USA, Japan, Cellular and PCS band are in this build.
Could this explain anything by chance?? It seems only GSM frequencies are available.

FYI adding the lines to build.prop and setting it to read-only doesn't work for the latest CM13 build. I hope LTE is supported soon in CM13.

Take a look at query.sh script in Nexus 4 LTE enabler 2.13 zip. Script deletes and inserts 2 records in settings.db database.

help me to have LTE

hi
my friends gave his n4 to enable LTE.. i tried lte enable zip but didnt go well.. and i cant read whole froum..
can any1 suggest me a rom (mm would be nice) having lte by default?
plz help me

Download the 1.07/.33 hybrid LTE modern from here
https://drive.google.com/folderview...&usp=sharing&tid=0B77BTW0zStYCSTRIYWpZQS1nOWs
Flash the hybrid modern in recovery, then go to the dialer and enter *#*#4636#*#*. Then go to phone information, scroll down to the network type, and choose lte/gsm auto. This will only work if your network provider supports lte on the band the nexus 4 supports, so please double check that.

here is my network specs :
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks
MTN Irancell 1800 3 FDD Nov 2014 10 MHz in use [1][608][609][610][611][612]
does it support?
and this link u gave me.. does it work on mm or lp 5.1.1 ?
ty for help

It should work on mm and lollipop. I'm not sure if it works on those bands, the only way is for you to try. If it doesn't work, just reflash the original modem for your rom.

LTE enabler zip 2.13 flashes hybrid modem and also changes settings. db so 4G appears in Settings/Cellular Network and preferred network type is permanently set to LTE/GSM/auto in Phone info.
So if you are not seeing this may be try flashing again. Flashing hybrid modem by itself does not force LTE setting.

The enabler script does NOT work on marshmallow/Android 6, FYI. I've had a hybrid modem on my phone and used LTE on both Android 4 and 5, but it's a no-go with 6. Even if you change the settings in the 4636 menu, but it doesn't make the modem actually change modes.
Check out this commit (referring to CyanogenMod 13, maybe other ROMs are different):
http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/125897/1/overlay/frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/config.xml
Look at this string of available modem modes:
<string translatable="false" name="config_radio_access_family">GPRS|EDGE|UMTS|HSDPA|HSUPA|HSPA|HSPAP|GSM|WCDMA</string>
Notice how LTE isn't anywhere in that string? I think it needs to be to be able to use LTE. Otherwise switching to LTE mode in the 4636 menu doesn't work.

Thanks for letting me know, I'll keep that in mind.

Yeah, I just tried adding a local.prop file in /data with the following content:
Code:
telephony.lteOnGsmDevice=1
ro.telephony.default_network=9
ro.ril.def.preferred.network=9
which didn't work, so I then edited my /system/build.prop itself to insert that code (deleted the telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=0 line as well), which also didn't work.
And neither worked. Switching to LTE/GSM (auto) in the 4636 menu has no effect, and when going into cellular networks to choose preferred mode, the only choices are 2G and 3G.
Damn it. I really like CM13, I don't want to move to some random AOSP build...

Yeah I hear you man. I think you'll just have to sit tight until they update it.
