sgs4 att i337, root, teamwin recovery, loki, Omega8, KT kernel, AMDL AWS unlock modem
I'm in Russia, operator is Megafon: Freq. 2600, Band 7
I tried set LTE only via service mode or service mode shotcut application.
I see only slashed circle.
APN is set
Have no ideas what else to try.

Is the Network Mode set to LTE / GSM / WCDMA?
Yes.

Circle with line through it? Is your IMEI intact?
Have no problem with IMEI. If I set network to auto I can call and use Internet up to H+
I want to explain some detail about my network operator. It provide only Internet over LTE and voice over 3g.
I would think that forcing the phone into LTE only mode would prevent a connection to the network, hence the ghostbusters symbol.
Try setting it back to Auto, and Network Mode LTE/CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA
I ask people on local 9505 forum. LTE here works only when set LTE only mode.
It works on i9505 but doen't work on my i377.

I think that's your best bet, the users here are 95% North American users. It would probably be best to post in the I9505 forum since there will be more international users. I couldn't even find the APN for your carrier.
apns-conf.xml
<apn carrier="Megafon Internet"
mcc="250"
mnc="02"
apn="internet"

I know answer in i9505 forum:
Go to i337 forum and ask there
Does anybody have ideas what to try?
Do anybody use LTE Band 7 - 2600MHz on i337?
Is it possible?

No it's not possible. Look at the following screenshot below for proof. You will never be able to get LTE with the ATT version of the phone no matter what you do. The phone doesn't support that band. End of story.

Hope you are wrong. i377 and i9505 have the same hardware. The difference is only in bootloader
i use one of these but i tricked mine out with an extendable painters pole

He is correct here's the spec info from gsmarena notice the 4g late bands listed the bottom one lists the i337 ones and it doesn't have 2600

What do you think about these screenshots?
I think Band 7 is prevented on software level.

"The Show Must Go On"
I've searched threads with similar/same problem, didn't find the answer.
About a week ago my phone company sent me a message that 4G was now active for the S4 (only) - yet I haven't been able to connect to anything but H+.
It seems as I don't have LTE option in my network settings, only GSM and WCDMA. It wasn't in my stock ROM nor GE 4.3 I'm running right now.
The service agent I spoke to had I9505XXUBMGA Firmware and he's using 4G, is there a change I'd need to flass stock I9505XXUBMGA to obtain 4G capability?
I have brand new 4G capable SIM.

You could try using Telinfo and "force" the 4G/LTE to be on as well, like so:
Worked fine over here :good:

Hey,
I ordered and received a N9005 unlocked version. I am on Bell network in a city where they use AWS (aka Band 4, aka 1700/2100) and (this is my bad for not checking carefully before ordering) this version doesn't support those LTE bands. It obviously connects fine through hspa+ though.
So, I was wondering, since the hardware actually supports those bands, is it something that a hack could unlock in the future (be able to use LTE with this phone on this network), or am I just gonna have to live on hspa+?
I purposely put this in general as I believe the discussion that this could drive would make it more fitting than in the questions forum if this is a possibility.
Thanks,
Math

LTE compatibility has been discussed in so many threads, you really should do a search before posting next time. If your phone has unlocked bootloader just flash Bell's modem onto it, once it becomes available. Or ask a friend, who has Bell branded GN3 to dump the radio for you, and take the firmware from him. Qualcomm's MSM8974 chip does support all LTE bands worldwide: http://www.qualcomm.com/snapdragon/processors/800

I usually do make a search but through all the threads relating to various questions regarding model variations and other questions relating to LTE, bands, compatibility, my search rendered very little insight to my specific question (although I'm sure it was answered before as you say, I just wasn't able to find it through all the other stuff relating to my keywords). And as you can see from the answer above you, I wasn't able to trust some answers that I managed to find.
Truly appreciate your answer though, Thank you very much and I'm happy to know I'll get LTE again soon.
Thanks
I too am waiting for a modem with 700/1700/2100/2600 on the LTE side. For the Note II this was done using Qualcomm's software to instruct it to use those bands... Rogers, Telus and Bell are all launching tomorrow on October 4th - sometime after then I hope to see the modem online and give it a whirl, but I suspect we might need a QCN file change also.
There is hope!
Got us a little closer: On my N9005 - *#0808# will bring up the Qualcomm USB settings.
On the Note II and S3 this is usually *#7283#
We're getting closer! Those with N900S / N900A / N900W8 phones, feel free to dump your NV Params QCN file now using the Qualcomm QPST Software!
bump!
No real luck yet. I can't flash N900W8 firmware onto my N9005. Neither the whole firmware or just the modem.bin.
Editing the NVParams didn't really work either, as some we tried just get reset to default after a reboot.
I flashed a N9005W8 modem (using dd as root) and unfortunately, it fails to communicate. Baseband shows as unknown. I suspect only a NVRAM dump with removed imei will work. Otherwise modem will need to be ported properly.

bump.... looking to find out how i can pull the modem file out of a specific firmware file, such as pulling the modem file only out of the bell tar file and then making it flashable with odin for my wind phone? i am downloading the whole bell firmware right now and am going to try to flash it on my phone..... i already tried the puerto rico one and it works, but with bell i only get hspa i assume that the bands bell uses are different than the PR ones. i do know that someone has already stated that they got rogers bands with it, but not bell yet, i dont think....

What does that bin contain? Your sayin that is necessary when i flash the modem? When i flash other n9005 modems i dont flash it.
In either case i dont have a copy. Upload and ill try.

Download the entire N900W8 firmware for odin. The modem and many other interesting things are within.
However unless you know something i dont, you will soft brick your phone. Assuming you are able to flash at all. (odin will not reject the rom)

Do you think in the future they will extract just the modem and I will be able to flash that separately? On the S3 I remember being able to flash different modems with the latest CWM.
Right now I have an unlocked n9005 with the Baseband I quoted in my last post. I am using it fine on Rogers Canada lte but in some places the signal is weak and I will lose connection altogether. I was hoping flashing the modem for my provider and region might fix it since the s800 has the correct frequencys for Rogers I think some are disabled or not being used because of software (it was an Asian model I think with a csc for a different region). To reiterate it does work on Rogers I was just hoping I could fix these network drops by flashing a more appropriate modem.

The modem is simple to extract, just untar the odin package.
The trick is actually making the modem boot.
The PBL appears to reject the modem, and thats very bad news for this concept.

bump, is this possible yet?
Just thinking out loud here, but I wonder if flashing the Canadian csc file would be helpful here? In the stainless rom thread in t mobile the op has the Canadian csc file posted. I wonder if flashing that first would allow things to boot with the w8 modem?
I did some thinking, and since you are trying to get a band working that the Snapdragon does support natively, maybe there is a chance. I would hazard a guess here, after some research and guessing, that the antenna actually would work here, so it could, in theory, just be a matter of firmware. Unfortunately the stock modem for the n900w8 may have to be modified to work....Not sure there. But may be an idea to flash the Canadian csc then flash the modem and see where that gets you? Not responsible if your phone bricks cuz I have no idea if this could work, as I said, just thinking out loud
Any updates on this? I too am interested in getting LTE on my n9005.

I got a S7 edge US Cellular branded from Walmart.. It is UNLOCKED. I put in my tmobile sim, I get lte, but, signal strength is low.
Is it possible to flash Tmobile software on this phone? The reason is I am not getting any strong signals (inspite of it supporting all corresponding LTE bands from Tmobile). Has anyone tried?
what options do I have? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

US cellular is just G935U I believe. You can just download the tmobile firmware, stick it in Oden and press flash. I suggest you to try flashing only the modem from the T firmware and use 935U firmware for everything else.

Is your US Cellular G935U? I bought a used one/unlocked -not in Walmart though- and it shows G935R4. I guess I will brick my device if I flash the Tmobile firmware. The problem that I have it show 4glte and speeds are amazing, however there are no bars shown. When I get a call, it shows bars and makes the calls with no issues. SMS works great.
