[Q] Any custom ROMs with an LTE radio built in? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was thinking about flashing paranoid android but I couldn't find any information on enabling LTE. Do any custom ROMs have an LTE radio by default or do they all require you to flash .33 once the ROM has been flashed? Also, is there a guide for fixing the voice issues during calls with .33 on 4.2.2?
Thanks in advance.

nexus custom roms do not come with a radio built into it. any of the earlier radios will work for lte(.33, .27..). anyways, its time for you to do some reading about enabling lte, read here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2211618

Problem with 4.2.2 and the .33 baseband

I'm on stock 4.2.2 and stock kernel.
I noticed that when I'm on the .33 baseband, I can make phone calls but there is no call volume. (Not able to hear anything as if the in-call volume is muted)
When on .48 this problem doesn't exist.
Had anybody found a solution to this? I would like to retain LTE functionality.

Maybe .33 baseband is not compatible with 4.2.2?
I am on Rogers in Canada and do not have this issue.
I am on 4.2.2 Stock with the .33 radio and I just tested this out.
LTE is working and I just made and received a call and we had no problems hearing each other.
Your post greatly concerns me but I can't back it up.
Have you tried it with the old bootloader as well?
Flash back to the 4.2.1 radio

The .33 radio is the 4.2.1 radio.
Anyone else have this issue before I go back to .33?

"Official"? LOL.
The whole point of having an entire "Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting" sub-forum is to be able to post distinct threads for each issue so that no one has to wade through hundreds of unrelated posts in a single thread looking for an answer to their question.
Trying to decrease the usefulness of XDA in order to karmawhore is not cool.

I have only tried the radios. .48 (it works but breaks lte) and .33.
Where can I find the .33 matching boot loader?

In the Google 4.2.1 factory image.

I should have been more specific. Is the boot loader from 4.2.1 the boot.IMG file? Or is there a different file I'm looking to extract and push?

It'll be the one with the mostly gibberish name. I can't check exactly at the moment though.

Only the .48 radio atm causes no problem with 4.2.2 afaik. This is how Google/LG intended it to prevent LTE trafficing. So you either have LTE and a lot of issues or no LTE and no problems, your choice
You can always roll back to 4.2.1 to keep LTE.
Is LTE selection in the hidden menu controlled by the kernel or the boot loader?
I ask because it would be nice if kernel developers could re enable that feature on the .48 kernel.

Well the ROMs won't flash a radio for you; that's what you need. Flash the 4.2.1 radio if you're after LTE, then you can run any ROM you want...
I'm sure you can find a flashable zip of the old radio if you don't want to do it via fastboot.
I'd consider rooting and fastbooting the old radio to be the quickest way. If you used one of the toolkits to root then just fastboot the radio to the device and problem solved.

Roms with lte?

Just want to know which ones have lte enabled?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
None, only the .33 and .28 radios have the LTE compatibility.
Keep in mind though, stock based 4.2.2 Roms won't work properly with the earlier radios (call sound is broken).. You have to use a cm or aokp based ROM if you want to use a 4.2.1 radio.

[Q] Update Radio

Im currently runing on the 4.2.2 basesband (M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1700.48) to flash a 4.3 rom do i have to update the Newest baseband ????
I had some issues trying to keep an older radio when I first moved to 4.3, I only held onto it for lte purposes but I found some awesome hybrid radios that worked flawless.
Search out the radio thread and grab the latest hybrid, works great if you want to have lte enabled with some of the newest ROMs (that may not support lte out of the box)
And be sure to thank the dev that created them
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
would the hybrid radio work on Paranoidandroid ?? cause it asks for you to be on the latest radio
Yes it should work, there are a couple hybrids of the latest ones, again not needed if you don't use lte, but if you do they're great!

LTE KK roms

I saw a couple CM11 roms that are LTE enabled. I was just wondering if there are any KK based off stock roms that are LTE enabled. I didn't really see any in the main threads for Android and Original Android threads. I guess you need the hybrid radios for it to work? Is it just flashing the hybrid radio and changing the preferred network in the phone settings?
This is one of the best LTE enabled stock based ROMs. The LTE version will even flash a hybrid radio for you

I didn't even know he did a stock KK version. I'm using his CM11 right now. LOL Yeah, his ROMs = good stuff.
Thanks, man.

You can manually switch to lte with *#*#4646#*#* in dialer, or the "network app in the play store".

That was only for pre-KK. Now you have to have a "hybrid radio" in order for LTE to stick, I think. Or downgrade the radio. I like andersonarago's ROM because you can just flash the zip file and everything is done. I think I'm going the try his stockKK version with LTE.
