[Q] How to change H+ to 4GLTE - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Hi i have a i337m from claro PR and i flashed the telus rom because it has a lot of more stuff but i would like to keep my 4glte icon and telus have the H+ icon
Any advice?

I think this is correct, international ROMs and aosp base ROMs have h =3g h+ = 4g < ( actually 3.5 g) and 4g = lte < ( true 4g) . I read that lte isn't used or a big thing in other country's is why it is this way , there is probably a fix but I Dont know what it is . try the search features or google and if its possible then most likely some one has the answer .

Icon or true connection?
I just got the 4s I9505 & because it's not AT&T branded I connect at H+ speeds only.
I cut down my HTC Vivid SIM card (which was getting 4G LTE) but due to the IMEI being not AT&T branded, no LTE.
AT&T has been contacted and hope to have issue resolved in a couple of weeks.
I remember that someone had to create the 4G & LTE icons for Vivid ROMs just for looks only.

I thought the i9505 got lte ? Did you change the APN ? Or phone setting in the dial pad ? Just a thought

What model was your phone originally and is the new motherboard also for same model? Seems like 3G bands do not match there.

[Q] SM900F Baseband Question/Problems

Hello ,
I bought a SM900F from UK a while ago and it was unlocked. I was capable of using 4G network there easily with no problems, but recently I have come to Dubai and am not able to hop on the 4G network . I have checked all the settings and made sure I had the 4G sim/ 4G data bundle and so on , but still same problem.
As per Wiki : Etisalat United Arab Emirates 1800 3 FDD September 2011 [500]
Etisalat United Arab Emirates 2600 7 FDD September 2011 [520]
My operator provides 4G on 1800 and 2600 Frequencies which are supported by SM900F. Just to clarify , this unit had never been locked .
So now im sitting here confused on what I need to do to get my 4G working , Im always connected to H and H+ .
Thanks in Advance ,
Nylem
Try to ask operator to give you his APN settings!
Settings - more networks - mobile networks - ap
Thanks for the reply ,
I have done that but still no hope

Your phone should support those LTE bands.
Confirm that the band /frequency information isn't outdated.
Are you in an area where the carrier doesn't have LTE coverage?
Open a support ticket to investigate if the carrier has provisioned your account /SIM correctly for LTE.
Look at the various online forums and find out if others are getting LTE in your location.
Set what the LTE signal strength is in the S5 service menu.
Set a preference for LTE in the service menu.
Possibly you are getting 4G, bit the onscreen icon is just incorrect?
Try updating or changing your 900F modem.

Thanks for the swift response mate ,
1) Band/Frequency are all compatible with the phone
2) The whole city is LTE covered ( specially mine that I live in the center ) .
3) Already working on a ticket with the carrier , but they say problem is from my side
1) I set the LTE Signal , Lost all connection
2) I put bearer as LTE , Lost all connection
3) Could be a possibility
Can you kindly forward me or show me the path to where I can change my 900F modem to a more international one , Thanks a bunch !
<3

Something is probably misconfigured or misprovisioned. But regardless, the issue will only be solved by paying attention to details and a process of elimination (of the possible causes).
The most productive single thing that you could do at this point would be to borrow a known working LTE SIM from a neighbour and see if works in your handset. Whatever the result, it would narrow down the possible culprits.
Also, don't assume that the frequencies are correct. Confirm with the carrier that they haven't changed or added new LTE bands.
Make the effort to find out what forums your carriers' customers usually frequent and look at recent posts there for seredipitious insights that you won't find elsewhere.
Don't dismiss the icon idea out of hand. Are your speeds indicative of an LTE connection?
You don't need a more "international" modem. Just a more current 900F one. Or less commonly, an alternate or older modem if your current one has a bug. Do a forum search for threads about changing modems. There are a lot of them. Don't fixate on this - it's one of the least likely possibilities.
Also consider updating to Android 4.4.3 or 4.4.4 which is said to address some connectivity bugs.

[Q] Problem on lte on sm-n900s

I have a korean lte-a version of note 3, i live in the philippines my problem is when i use mobile data i always get G and 3g signal, mostly 3g i can never get H or 4g or lte working, evn though im on a lte hotspot and my phone is capable of lte, can someone pls help me set it up thankyou!

N9005 - No 4G, 99% sure not a fake, and baseband is correct [NZL]

Edit: Sorted the issue, wasn't any problem of the phone. Cell provider (Vodafone NZ) has falsely told me that they were merging the 3g and 4g plans (as they were exact replica's of each other). I was having trouble signing up to the 4g plan, so they told me to just buy the 3g plan as it would work the same. Turns out they did a U-turn on that decision.
Hi all,
Reluctantly asking for help as I cannot figure out how to get 4G on my note 3.
I only ever get 3g, or H+, never 4g/LTE icons. Speedtest never goes above about 6 megabit's download.
What I know:
-I am on a 4g enabled SIM
-I got 4g on my Note 2 before upgrading
-The device was bought locally (N9005, baseband N9005XXUGNG1)
-Pretty sure its not a fake (CPU-Spy shoes 2.3ghz used, about phone shows 1920x1080, flashed to temasek's CM12 without a problem, PlayStore apps say its genuine)
-No 4g either on stock NZ rom, or CM 12
-The option is set to preferred network type: LTE
-The N9005 International LTE uses 850/900/1800/1900 and Vodafone New Zealand use 1800 frequency for 4g (source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2574886)
What I don't know:
-How to fix it! Can I flash a different baseband/could that be the problem?
-Is it a manufacturing fault?
Cheers
@iobbim on my n9005 I didnt had LTE option I enabled it in some lte file through es file explorer.

Try this buddy.
But you should have root access.
Go to the following path using RootExplorer
"root/data/property"
Open "persist.radio.lteon" and change it to true.
Then Reboot. And goto Mobile Network. Now you'll see LTE option.
See Screenshot.
Thanks.
Thanks to both of you for the reply. I might not have been quite clear enough.
I do have the preferred network type set to 4g, see screen shot. I also had the same options as your screenshot above on the stock rom where i set 4g but it didnt work.
Ive attached a screenshot of my root/data/property directory and i dont seem to have the right file, is it something i should be adding? I.e. if you provide the contents of the file.
Thanks
Edit... Wow OK I'll put this on hold until I go back to city to check 4g. Few weeks ago I was having trouble signing up to 4g plan, but it was failing, so I rang provided who said they are merging both the 3g and 4g plans. They told me to buy the 3g plan and 4g would work and they needed to update their self service options. I tried adding the 4g plan again today and it worked... Looks like they did a potential U turn on that decision.

S5 SM-G906L network settings

Hey everyone ..
I've bought lately S5 (SM-G906L) the Korean version because of the perfect specification that it has ..
i had an S4 before it and i was used to see the H+ icon when i use the data network on it but after i bought the s5 its always 3G .
i tried to change the settings in my phone but never could and i live in Turkey btw so thats mean there is no 4G network here ..
can anyone help to change it to H+ cause i read that its faster and better than the normal 3G network or at least its enough to me to learn the reason of all of that
and also there is another problem I've just discovered which is i cant use the video call from this device whereas i could use it from my sim card on my friend's phone Note 4

Changing the icon won't give you better or faster data, silly.
H+ = 3G+. That's it. It's probably showing you a 3G icon (it's the same thing lol) while actually using H+ since it's a korean phone. Check with your operator what speeds they have for H+/3G+ and do a speedtest to see if you're on H+ or not.
And what about video calls ? Do u have any idea ?
