Hello all,
This is my first post here, so I'm kind of a noob, but please bear with me. I currently am using the Galaxy s4 GT-i9505 international version in which I bought in Hong Kong last month. I came back to home net network of Rogers Wireless in Canada. The major issue my area supports LTE and the phone cannot reach LTE in the status logo. (I am only getting 3G, H+, 4G) The phone is up to date with the newest in phone update of 4.2.2. This should not be happening because even in the Settings => Mobile networks => Network mode i checked under LTE/GSM/WCDMA (auto connect) option. What should I do?
Also, should I be flashing to the I337 version roms? (which is the local branded version for Rogers in Canada) Please help and help me get started, much thanks.

I'm going to delay you a little until you get a good, valid response from someone that actually knows for sure... But, I know if you flash an international ROM on an I337, it will brick the phone because some of the components are different. It seems to me that it would also brick your phone by doing the reverse, by flashing a I337 ROM on the international version.
First, you did post questions in q&a not the general forum. Second, there is a forum for the i9500, i9505 where you would probably get better answers for your device.
The canadian version is i337m...no locked bootloader as with i337
I am running an international based rom on my i337 m right now.
4g can be lte...depending on a few things..run a speedtest to be sure.
If your not getting lte speeds try to change your modem to the latest canadian version from the modem thread.

Hes trying to run it on rogers in canada..worst case he can always restore his orig modem or nandroid. But yes it should work..if I flash a 19505 modem on my i337m all I would get is either poor signal or no signal.
If we were talking kernels the perhaps diff story

can you please elaborate on the apn settings? I am not sure how to reach that in the phone, but it seems to be everything automatically done.
Hi everyone,
I been search over a month how to fix the problem i am having.
I bought the galaxy s4 lte-advance from Korea, i am thinking in rooting it but my problem is bigger then that.
Here is the PROBLEM:
I have t-mobile service and I do not receive 4g lte, the area i am at does have 4g LTE.
Setting of the phone,
Device Model number: : E330S
Adroid version 4.3
Based version E330SKSUBMJ6
When I go Mobile networks > data network mode> i only have 2 oppition 1st LTE 2nd 3G
No mater what i receive 4g lte, all i am receiving is 3g.
I would like to know how can I make m phone receive 4g?
I been over 100s of post in this forum couldnt find a related posted.
Same issue
Hi Filter I've had the e330s in the UK on EE since October and 4G/LTE started off working fine but since Android 4.3 I no longer have 4g. The options are there and everything looks great but never switches to 4G.
Looking at your firmware you are a bit behind though as I am too by the looks of it. I'd suggest trying the latest firmware via Odin and possibly Kies if it let's you (might need to try v2 or whatever its called). Firmware links below
Roll on 4.4!

Install this APP, make some screenshots pls and post them here.
*EDIT: You have to post your Q&A for this device: HERE.
EDIT: I am also experiencing Connection Problem or Invalid MMI Code
and cannot top up my phone account.
I have a Chinese version of Galaxy note 4 as I live in Beijing.
Model number: SM-N9108V
Android version 4.4.4
Processor: Snapdragon
I recently rooted my phone to get access to Gapps and the play store. After the root I noticed the phone is very slow when connecting over a data network.
The SIM card I am using with China Unicom is set for 4G.
Under Settings> more networks> Mobile networks > There is the option for network mode but it is grayed out and is selected as 2G only. I can not select it or change it. Has anyone had any problems with this or any solutions? Thanks in advance.
Just wondering if someone might be able to help. I've had on CM12.1 before but decided to give Imperium 12 a try on my Fido Canada / Samsung S4 (i337h rooted) Everything seemed pretty awesome,stable and good battery life. I'm usually on Wifi but then I tried using LTE data and realized mobile data does not work! I've looked under APN etc and on a matching S4 (with stock s4 samsung rom we also own) it looks identical, it just wont work on mine. What would be a good place to start? is there a logfile somewhere I could check? is there a special # to dial to check APN connection etc?
Is the phone running an up-to-date modem and bootloader?
