[Q] GT-I9505G LTE Frequencies - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone!!!
I would like to buy the GT-i9505G to replace my i337M, but first I have to make sure that S4 Google Edition has the LTE frequencies that we use in Canada (Band 4 AND Band 7).
I'm pretty sure it has support to LTE Band 4. Now I have to find out about the LTE Band 7. Could you help me to figure this out, please?
1) The test should be done in "pure" S4 Google Edition (GT-I9505G), with Build Number JWR66V.S014.130801 and Baseband I9505GUEUBMH1.
2) Dial the command *#2263# into your dialer. The screen "ServiceMode" will open after that.
3) On the "ServiceMode" screen, select "LTE Band Preference", then select "LTE B7" and then select "Band Pref: LTE B7".
4) Tap the Menu button and then select "Back". If you see an (*) after LTE B7, that means your GT-i9505G has support for the LTE Band 7!
5) To put your device the way it was before, tap the Menu button and then select "Back".
6) On the first screen of "ServiceMode", select "Automatic" and then select "Automatic" one more time.
7) Tap the Menu button and then select "END"
One more thing: Could you take a screen shot if you see an (*) after LTE B7 and post it, please?
Thanks a lot!!

Anyone?
Come on folks! Anyone?

This shouldn't be here in Development as a standalone thread.
Either post it in Darky's ROM thread itself, or take it to General.

How to lock your 3g Adam to... well 3g..lol

Here is a video on how to setup 3G only on your Adam and/or other Android device using the awesome shortcut app called "ANYCUT"
This is best for when you live in an area that the 3g signal is there and works but may be less strength than the edge signal so your device keeps dropping the 3g in favor of the edge.
Enjoy and please feel free to comment.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEE03oCgoCA
Overview of steps:
Download and install "anycut" from market place or preferred apk getter...
Long hold on desktop then select "shortcuts"
Then select the "anycut" option.
Then select "Activity"
Then scroll all the way to "Phone Info" and select
When that opens scroll to the drop down menu and you can select
WCDMA only = 3G only
WCDMA preferred = 3G/Edge (whichever is stronger)

[Q] "3g only" mode is possible in U8800?

Hello ! What about adding this option to our phone? Thanks!
it is already possible even in stock condition
1) go to your dialer and dial *#*#4636#*#*
2) hidden menu will appear, tap Phone information
3) scroll the page down and look for preferred network type:
4) select wcdma only and you will have 3g only

Its good , but having this option in main menu is better , isn't it? I think if this option present in hidden menu , we may add it ti main?
Not sure how you can add it to the main menu.
But u can simplifies the above steps by using Anycut to create a shortcut to "Phone Info" so that the "3g only" setting is only 2 taps away from home screen
good luck
l *#*#4630#*#* didnt work for me
i got it to work its *#*#4636#*#*
Thanks for the correction, had a typo

OP updated with link
Last I had read, AT&T won't be supporting VoLTE (voice over LTE) for quite a while (another year at least). T-mobile has some variant of it, and I think Sprint delayed theirs but will have it soon. Verizon is also far out, but not as far as AT&T's

Why is my S4 SGH-I337 can not enter * # 0011 # to enter the setup menu?
When the input is "1"
The phone does not reflect
MK2 firmware
I found a video that got to the WB-AMR setting using some more funky "Key Input" of "Q" then "0000" to get to the UMTS menu.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uT48bsq0sG0
But unfortunately, when you tap on the "Audio" settings, nothing happens!
Darn, so close...
I wonder if a SIM unlocked phone will enable the "AUDIO" setting?

[Q] Is there a way to enter the SERVICE MODE MAIN MENU in Note 3 [n9005]?

Is there a way to enter the service mode main menu in Note 3 where you can tap UMTS like in Galaxy S4?

from your dialer, enter *#2263#
Enabling a specific frequency will not enable it on your device if Samsung has crippled it for your specific carrier. The only way to enable another modem frequency is to flash a supported ROM for your model and enable the ROM through the carrier settings.
Hope this helps!
