Hi everyone just got my brand new shiny Nexus 4 in the mail about 2 days ago (luckily I ordered it when I did because it was sold out like 3 days later L:laugh:L). It's already been upgraded to 4.3 JWR66Y. My main question is how do I enable the 4G LTE on it? It's on T-Mobile BTW. I know I'll have to ROOT and unlock BOOTLOADER in order to do this and I'll most likely flash a ROM, I want it as close to stock as possible so which do you guys recommend? I hear PA is the way to go. Thanks in advance guys
All info about lte

Hello all!
I posted the questions below on the UK/Ireland thread yesterday, but havent had any replies yet, so trying here for better luck!
My 9505 arrived today, and cant wait to get busy with it! So reposting my questions here, in the hope that i get the answers!
I really need to find out which rooting method is suitable for this device, so I dont screw things up.
Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help!
Hi guys and gals!
I was a long time serial HTC user, and now finally have jumped ships over to Samsung , so going through a learning curve here, please bear with me!
Waiting for my S4 on OrangeUK upgrade to arrive tomorrow, so getting ready for the usual initial steps and have a few quick questions:
1 What is the model sent out by Orange, 9500, or 9505? Its a GT-I 9505
2 On XDA, what is the difference between the "Galaxy S 4 i950x Android Development", and "Galaxy S 4 i950x ORIGINAL Android Development" sections? I dont get it...
3 Is the Orange UK S4 all ok to root, sim unlock etc as we currently stand? Which method is the recommended one?
(I ask, since having trawled the forums previously, have seen that this changes according to latest software versions etc until devs catch up; easier to ask quickly here than read 300 pages and still be confused )
4 Which is the best/easiest method to unbrand and change the carrier designator, so I end up with an unbranded stock/sim free model designator and ROM? Is it worth doing?
Want to get rid of the Orange crapware, AND be able to get future updates, since on my HTC Sensation removing the crapware changed the hash value of the system software, and subsequent updates would never install anymore)
Thanks in advance guys, looking forward to your replies and starting off with my S4!
OK, after playing around for awhile, it seems that happily ive been sent a stock version! ie no Orange crapware etc... :good:
Ive updated the software to i9505xxuame2, with OTA.
Still uninformed as to the best root method to use, so any advice will be appreciated!
Well, no one answered so I tried the following method and it worked great!

Hey guys... it's been a while since I've been on XDA.. I can't say I'm much of a developer anymore so bear with me as I work 2 jobs and don't have a computer anymore to do ultra fast searching..
So I'm looking to root my VZW LG G2 on 4.4.2 but I'm running tmobile.. I'm not looking to run AOSP, if I was I'd already know the answer to these questions... I'm looking to flash a G3 port, any reccomendations? And on these stock roms what do I have to do to get my baseband working for tmobile? I read that optimusg3 would work on the vzw variant with the vzw baseband flashed, but is that necessary with me using tmobile? Would it be better to just flash a tmobile baseband? I'm not used to these multi-carrier phones... BACK IN MY DAY SONNY WE HAD DIFFERENT MODELS FOR DIFFERENT CARRIERS LOL.
Final annoyance if someone wouldn't mind making my life easier and provide a link for a tutorial of rooting with kit Kat that way when I'm in front of a computer I'll be able to get right to work without going search crazy..
Thanks all!!
I'm glad to be back!!!!!
Hello, I may be having trouble finding the info, but I am hoping to find a good, clean ROM for my AT&T Galaxy Tab 4 8 inch tablet (SM-T337A). I have rooted it, and the main reason I want a new ROM is to make sure I can unlock it when I dump AT&T for T-Mobile, so other options to do that would be appreciated, also. Thanks for any help!
I have a Galaxy Tab 4 from AT&T as well. As far as I can tell, the device has a locked bootloader, and there hasn't been a development effort to try to bypass it. So, in the meantime, we're unable to install custom ROMs. Thanks AT&T.

If you just want to use it on TMO, you can have it unlocked. I had mine unlocked (I had to use a third party unlock service because AT&T wouldn't do it for some reason). But, just so you know, it is not eligible for the free 200mb plan yet. I made a request to TMO to add this device to the list so I can sign up for it. If you want to go for paid plans, it works just fine.
Hey guys, sad day for me yesterday as I had tried to install the Slick Rom for the G950U the other day but came to realize my bootloader was updated past 2 so I could not flash it. Are there any ROMs available with an updated bootloader like mine? I don't know exactly what version I have but I know it's above 2. Is there any hope for this phone? I feel like it is a piece of crap compared to my Oneplus One I had for 4 straight years because of the incredible ROMs they had available for the OPO....
