My wife just got her unlocked l7 and I'm only getting edge data speeds. How can I set it up for t mobile hspa speeds?
Go to: Settings - Wireless & network - Mobile networks - Network mode, now set it to "WCDMA only"
Isn't CDMA Verizon and sprint only? T-Mobile is GSM. I'll try it when my wife gets off work.

try to edit your Access Point Names (APN) or create new APN, maybe your APN doesn't correct. cmiiw/imho
searching with google for APN is good idea

I'll give it a try. Can you mess something up if you do it wrong?

Still didn't work. It will not let me change the default APN.

Got it to change but still on edge. Would like to get 3g at least. Any suggestions?

My wife has her phone at work. I'll look when she gets home. She bought it on amazon. It the P-705 also. What is the APN settings suggested. Her default showed GPRS too. Not sure what this means.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
Search it within MOBILE NETWORKS, not 100% sure cause I m now on CM10. Anyway look in settings and when you find Access Point Network(APN) you'll see GPRS or 3G parameters. Check all if something misses you add manually. It's conf from your network , Google it or find from official site huh. I'm tired now

Not sure what to call this really. Every since I started using the nexus my at&t hspa connection is terrible. Almost like lagging and "timeouts" constantly.
Example: I'm in Google chrome with 4 full blue bars on hspa. I type in a web address and hit go. It takes 5-10 seconds before the up and down arrows on the signal bars show up and then it starts loading the page. For 5-10 seconds it does nothing.
Same issue in apps. For example, in dice with buddies, I'll submit my move and it won't take it for like 10 seconds. I've never had this issue with any of my previous phones.
Do you guys know of better APN settings or something? I'm just using whatever stock settings there were.
I think it's a radio issue, where it disconnects spontaneously
It's annoying as hell and I'm about to sell the phone because of it.
Search the forum for the best APN. I'm on ATT with the nexus 4 and have no issues.

I concur. I not only had to change my APN, but I also had to call AT&T to make sure I was provisioned on an HSPA account.

No issues with ATT hspa network here as well... May be your area has bad att hspa network?

It it normal for my mobile internet to disable when I'm talking on the phone? And when I cut off it comes back
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
It's always done it for me so I'm assuming it's normal
Are other phones like this?

I'll also say my old Galaxy Nexus and HTC One X did the same - I'm almost 100% sure it's normal behavior in Android
If I'm not mistaken it's because your using 3g to call someone. Now if you were on 4G and try to call somebody most likely it would still say 4G on the top notification bar because it's using your non LTE band to call somebody and allows you to use LTE for data purposes so you would be able to hop on the internet and browse at the same time on a call. Now I know with AT&T you can call somebody and browse the internet while on 3G.

Is there a way to do it? To switch it to 3G/2G?
Please no posts saying "why would you wanna do that?!".
Looking for the same. AT&T or LG block ×#×#4636#×#×

I didn't have any luck. Hopefully someone can figure out how.
I dug around in 3845#*800#
There is no RAT selection under the CDMAOnly or LTE-Only menus.
Hope some one can find this, really need to kill LTE at work.
Hi guys I recently got myself a note 3 with videotron here in Canada
I know videotron does not have lte yet but on my phone I don't even have that option
All I have is
WCDMA/GSM(auto connect)
WCDMA ONLY
GSM ONLY
My friend has does same options but has also the LTE option available
My note 3 is a sm-n900w8
Thanks

It depends if your carrier has 4G as I am on Three network UK and I too dont have the LTE option because 4G not out in my area yet but when I changed sim to O2 who already have 4G the LTE option appears.

If you're already rooted go to data/property ,find the persist.radio.lteon.xml file. Open it in Text Editor and if the value that is written is false, change it to true. Save and exit and reboot. Thats it

If you don't know it means you're not
If bought directly from Vidéotron and no modification has been done to your device, you're not rooted

Any benefits being rooted? Is it like being jailbroken.?

Rooting has many benefits. The main reason I do it is to uninstall all the bloatware that Samsung saddles you with. My Note 3 came with 25+ useless apps that I can't delete. That's not even counting the 7 that T-Mobile sticks on here. Most of them don't run all the time, but a few do. Like Magazine and the also useless Samsung Siri knockoff. I just use Google voice instead. Another advantage to rooting it would be all the customization options that you would have.
Coming from the Note 4 I could type #*0011* and see the various LTE/other network stats. Can somebody tell me how to do this in the tmo V20?
Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk
Try *#546368#*918# and go into field test and modem settings
Thank you. It didn't quite display what I was looking for but looking in LTE bands I saw band 30 and 40 but not 66. Maybe it isn't enabled out of the box... Dunno

The app LTE Discovery can expose all this data and more without dialer codes
