Hmm, one thing that always helps me if I have problems with apn is to go to wireless and networks- mobile networks - apn - reset to default.
Well, and there are full proof methods - data wipe, dalvik cashe wipe, cashe wipe, reflashing of firmware completely.
I had to manually input my provider's APN after installing Tayutama's rom:
Settings > Wireless and network > Mobile networks > Access Point Names
If you don't see your APNs there, you have to set them up manually. Check your provider's site for the neccessary information. Good luck.
PS: You shouldn't be posting this kind of request in the dev section. It belongs in the Q&A section
thanks for your help guys.
data WORKS but only on 2g which is EDGE but it doesn't work on 3g !
i already tried 2 different rogers apns.
and i already performed a data wipe, dalvik cashe wipe, cashe wipe, reflash of firmware completely.
and just to let u know an APN Can't control 2g or 3g.
Maybe you're over your provider's data limit for 3g then? Mine automatically switches me to 2g if I get over a certain volume.

Ah, didn't look at your provider. You might have problems with modems. As canada uses 850 band. Though you probably know that.
besides that - try setting not just gsm or wcdma in settings, but auto. I often have problems with switching them to just one setting. But auto always works.

Did you manage to solve this? I am having the same issue and googling never turned up anything.
The only way I could force it back on to WCDMA 2100 bandwidth is using servicemode.
If I toggled GSM only it goes to GSM900. But I cannot get it back to 3G where my home has decent coverage. GSM900 has extremely bad coverage in my home but good elsewhere in my region. 3G isn't covered regionwide so I get missed calls and lost SMSes.
Yea i lost the 850 band. Try *#*#0011#*#* rgen go to network then band selection then input key 5 which should bring 850. If that doesnt work just search for doc rom

Come on.. I'm not a newbie. I know all the settings. I have posted this question because after all the settings correct, still I'm getting this problem.
At work my nexus 4 goes on 2g and won't switch back. Worked fine for the first few weeks but lately happens all the time, I need to get out of work for it to work. Tried to turn it off, data off and back on but nothing.
I am on tmobile UK as other people at work and they haven't got that problem, they get full bars H.
Does anyone knows or has the same problem.?
Almost giving up on android

Do they also have T-Mobile UK? Check your APN settings

There is an "Enable 2G only" option that you may have checked accidentally?
Settings > More > Mobile Network Settings
None of the above checked all of it data enabled and tmobile settings match my colleagues phone.
Don't remember when this started to happen but has been more then 3 weeks.
Weird is the other tmobile with same settings have no problems.

Hello, I have no problem receiving an LTE signal on BCE (Canada) through the Phone Info Menu. I can select any of the preferred network types including LTE, LTE/GSM, CDMA, LTE/GSM/CDMA but it won't stay. Every day I have to go back into the menu and it reverts back to the first selection "WCDMA".
Does anyone know how to force this so it stays on LTE/GSM/CDMA. So it will stay on the LTE-enabled network unless there is a loss of signal and it reverts back to HSPA? It does this automatically when "LTE/GSM/CDMA is selected, but again reverts to CDMA within a day usually.
I did some searches here, but 99% of what comes up is just people asking how to enable LTE or if their network gets it?
Any ideas? Maybe some sort of macro thing.
Regards.
Add this line in build prob
telephony.lteOnGsmDevice=1
Save
Reboot
Now in settings/more/mobile networks u will have an option to choose and it will stick. U have to add the line every time u flash ROMs.
But I keep iron WC DMA/gsm for better battery speed is OK on h+
Thanks for the helpful reply man. I haven't edited a build.prop yet, so Ill have to check it out.
Alright thats all done now, works like a charm. Like that I have the option now either way. I typically stick to WCDMA/GSM when on the road or at work where LTE is spotty, but on days off for around town I would rather just be on LTE as I usually just looking up something quick when Im shopping or something.
Thanks again.

Nice
I keep it at LTE, it does have less bars but quality is same for me, speeds are amazing. Also 4G is only data, not voice, so when u have an active call it will change to 3G.(but that's not the phone it's the network)
don't forget to do it again if you flash new ROM, also Tethering WiFi won;t work, there is a fix but it's complected for me, so I just go to W/G if I need to share connection.
So, my Nexus 4 shipped today, and it'll be in my grubby little hands by tomorrow evening. I, unfortunately, can't activate it until March, as I have to wait for my Verizon contract to end, but I keep seeing this LTE stuff, with no real explanation. I do know that the Nexus 4 has an inactive LTE radio in it, but what's the use of activating it, if T-Mobile doesn't have LTE? Is this only for the AT&T users?

There are other threads dealing with who can access LTE in the USA. I am in Canada and on Bell.
I'm in Canada, using Fido. I activate the LTE on my Nexus 4. It works fine, but I'm not able to share internet with wifi hotspot.
I have Android 4.2.1 (latest OTA from Google).
There is a bug with this version or it's only because I activate LTE manually ?
As per the previous comment:

what is the fix to get hotspot internet sharing with the Nexus 4 ? Do i have to had a APn for 3G and swith that it to share my connection ?
I'm with the original firmware. Android 4.2.1
process com.android,phone hase stopped working
i recently got a rom from revolt on my n4 and i switched cdma to lte gsm wcdma auto
i also went into build.prop and wrote down telephony.lteOnGsmDevice=1. i went and to setting, more, mobile networks chose the correct setting. so now i got 4G. great i can make calls. GREAT. but i cannot receive calls...
need help with this. im really choked about this ROM
Even if I select "LTE/CDMA" in the Mobile network settings menu. The settings page keeps displaying "CDMA preferred".
Does this mean it didn't work? In quick settings, I see my mobile data connection as 3G Bell.
LTE only seems to work when using the *#*#4636*#*# trick in the Phone app.

Would you have by any chance the line for the built.prop to stick the setting to GSM Auto (PRL)?
TIA!

Thanks, but LTE doesn't work in my country, its always stick on lte/gsm/wcdma but it doesnt detect my gsm so i have to manually set it on GSM only but wont stick here every time i restart my phone i have manually set it on GSM only otherwise it wont detect my network
Any advice ?
How can I make "WCDMA Only" the default selection?
Where I Iive there is no LTE and the coverage of the service is quite poor, so the phone keeps jumping between E and 3G/H. I have to manually go into the phone app and select "WCDMA Only" is there a build prop tweak to make the "WCDMA Only" the default option instead of "WCDMA Preferred"?
Thank you.
So is there a way to get the nexus 4 to work on Verizon ??

Aah Crap ! Well thanks man saved me from buying on guess i will have to stick with my rezound for now then
fixed it
For everyone still searching for a solution to this problem, this worked for me. Go to phone information and turn your radio off. Then switch to LTE/GSM/CDMA then power down, DO NOT TURN YOUR RADIO BACK ON. Now remove your Sim card, put it back in, reboot and you should be good to go. DO NOT HGO BACK INTO PHONE INFORMATION OR ELSE IT WILL NOT STAY
If it still isn't connecting try fiddling around with your APN settings.
I'm getting mega problems network goes weird this can only be fixed by setting network to only wcdma which doesn't stick on reboot I think this Is how three uk work as they really only use 3g or above only, has Google thought this out and why have they blocked network settings on reboot
*#*#4636#*#*
Phone information, set network type, select what you want see if that helps.
