Xperia on T-Mobile in Ga - Xperia Play General

I'm not sure if it has bee checked lately but I was wondering if it would be possible to get the 3g/4g bands to work in Georgia now?

I have an unlocked AT&T Xperia PLAY on Tmobile in northern Utah and I get HSPA+... its awesome. I get an average of 5-7mbps down 1-3mbps up.
There is no official refarming map for Tmo however there is this site where people mark if they have seen the coverage go from Edge/2G to AT&T compatible 3G/HSPA+. You can enter your zip code and see if people have marked any areas around you where they have seen the coverage change:

Also, you need to get the T-Mobile APN settings on your phone, If you are on a gingerbread ROM you can download tweakker from the market and select Tmo standard, it will then automatically set the APN settings for you. You must be on wifi to use this app for it to download and check/confirm the settings.
After that you should be golden if you have updated coverage in your area.

[Q] Band Selection

Good evening,
Is there a service menu screen within the atrix like on the samsung galaxy s?
http://androidforums.com/samsung-ga...rk-frequency-your-samsung-i9000-galaxy-s.html
I want to see if there is a similar method to this to enable 3G on 900mhz on my AT&T Atrix as I've read in several places that this frequency is locked down simply by software and that the radios in the AT&T and world/bell/uk versions are the same chip.
I have tried flashing several radios (UK, and other world ones) to no avail. I would like to enable this band as O2 in the UK are putting 3G on 900mhz (equivilant to AT&T's "4G" on 850mhz)
Any ideas on if I can do this at all please?
Yes, just dial *#*#4636#*#*

That does not do band selection.

When your s4 switches to 4G, does it change status from 4G to LTE?

mine just sticks to 4G.
3G still switches between H and H+ when in use.
My friends Note 2 changes between 4G and LTE when in ise
I've never seen mine show "LTE"... When I set the network to "4G/3G/2G (auto connect)" I lose network for a second then I get "E" -> "3G" -> "H+" then I get "4G".
4G speeds are noticably quicker that H+. I'm clearly using something quicker than HSPDA, thats for sure

On Samsung touchWiz Rom, I get '4g' displayed. On the google edition Rom, I get 'LTE' displayed.

Check different carriers to see if you can find one with more compatible bands.

Not Getting 4G/LTE After Flashing KLTE ROM

So, this is probably a noob question, but I'm a bit rusty on the android thing
I flashed the KLTE ViperOS ROM and have only been getting 3G or no signal at all... What do I need to do to convert it to a KLTEVZW to get my 4G back?
In your phone dialer write *#*#4636#*#* and you will get something like this image.

In phone info option you need to mark LTE/CDMA to get 4G LTE.
You were half right my friend, thank you for letting me know about the *#*#4636#*#*
I actually had it set already to LTE Auto like you show, but for some reason, my "Select Radio Band" wasn't set to United States. I tapped USA and instantly got 4G

Question Nothing Phone No 5G

Hi does anyone know why I can't get 5g on my Nothing phone, I have preferred network set to 5g, have tried both my voda and ee Sims, my son and partner both have full 5g service on there EE and voda Sims which is weird. If I search for available networks it shows only 2g 3g and 4g networks as shown in the image.
Thanks in advance!

Have you confirmed with your service providers that you have 5G enabled on your services?
I had the same problem. Carrier didn't certify the pohne to use in it's network which is a big BS because phone supports all the needed 5G bands. Switched to another carrier - Mobile vikings - and I have 5G.
