It does, you will just have to be rooted and flash either an older radio or a hybrid radio to use LTE

Band 4 1700mhz only.

Oh you lucky devil. LTE Advanced is the next step beyond LTE. It's called True 4G because LTE technically isn't 4G. There are very few places and carriers that use LTE Advanced today because it's so new. Anyway, the Nexus 4 won't be able to use LTE Advanced because it doesn't have the proper hardware. In fact, I've only heard of one major phone that has the hardware, a special GS4 that Samsung released in markets that could use it. I'm sure there are others, but that's all I've heard.
If I may ask, where do you live? I'm just curious as to where they're rolling out LTE Advanced.

I come from the tiny little island called "Malta" in the heart of the med. I suppose for the first time in history were actually technologically advanced. Vodafone just announced it this morning and I got in-contact with someone who works there. Shame nobody will be able to benefit from it immediately
Sorry I don't think Vodafone use Band 4. You might want to wait for the announcement of the Nexus 5. There is some rumor it will support all the LTE bands, though its unconfirmed.
You can see the list of LTE bands here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks

That entirely depends on where you are or what market you're in. T-Mo is in the process of moving all their HSPA+ service from the 1700MHZ band over to the 1900MHZ band in order to make way for its future LTE services. Most markets are still on 1700. If you're in one of those markets still, then the Int'l Note 2's HSPA+ will not work (because it does not support 1700MHZ HSPA+). On the other hand, if you're one of the lucky ones in a new 1900MHZ T-Mo service area, then you're all set to go!

Can't u wait a week for one from Tmo that'll work with all their hspa+ networks and future proof for lte with actual warranty for the same price? Heck you waited this long already what's another week for lte and warranty?
I'd wait personally. The T-Mobile one should have LTE too so you can take advantage of that once they start firing up those networks.
Does Nexus 7 4G compatible with 3G too.
Can anyone of you let me know the 3G frequency it will support?
As per tech crunch page, it has been mentioned as 3G compatible.

Thanks..
In my experiments it shows HSPA on both US AT&T and T-Mobile. Most likely it is the same as Nexus 4.

Thanks for your reply.
Does it work in UMTS or 2100Mhz?
Currently using my USA purchased N7 in Malaysia. Works great here. On a train trip the other day I noticed the following indicators above the bars, depending where I was. G,E,3G,H. HSPA speed is good.

Will the nexus 4 be able to get it ?
Actually I set up the new lte APN
I forgot where i got it from but
I went into phone info
(*#*#4636#*#*)
And took the lte setting.
I did this bc I'm in a testing city(NYC)
I noticed a slight increase in data speed.
But can anyone confirm this

Anyone in NYC ?

Changing the network mode is not changing the APN. You need to go to APN settings and change the name to fast.tmobile.com and the APN protocol to IPv4/IPv6 and save it. Then do speed tests to confirm if you're getting LTE.
T-Mobile users have reported getting LTE in NYC but the network kicks them off about 15 mins later.
Yes the Nexus 4 will receive LTE.
APN setting can be found at Settings/More/Mobile networks/Access point names
Don't forget to be on a .33 or lower radio

Would this be considered lte?

By speed alone, nope. I've personally seen 25 down and 3 or so up on HSPA+.
No. When you go to results it should say LTE as your network. Your icon on top should say 4G too.

Hi eddy, could you clarify this? I was under the impression that the Nexus 4 doesn't have an LTE radio or something and every review video I watch says that "no LTE" is a downside along with the no microSD card and removable battery.
Are you saying that there will be a Nexus 4 LTE version released soon? (This is all for Tmobile btw)

No no there won't be an LTE Nexus 4. The Nexus 4 is already LTE, but you must be on android 4.2.1 or have root. Correct that there is no expandable memory or removable battery. Most reviews say that it doesn't have LTE either because they made the review before it was discovered or simply chose not to say because its not official and The N4 only supports carriers with LTE that have band 4 and that is only a few (T-Mobile and some Canadian carriers).

For LTE, you can have the newest version of Android, but you must flash an older radio that still had LTE enabled. Then, you need to do what other people suggested, change your APN and radio settings.
Honestly I think HSPA+ is quite fast already. LTE is faster but do you really really really need it? It's cool to have and all. Most folks don't even know what LTE is or what it stands for. They just think "Oh it's super fast! I can download cat videos at super speeds!"

I found this post funny because your avatar is Jerry the mouse :good::laugh:
But LTE is just another feature that tmo released. Nothing more than faster speeds and faster killing of your battery on LTE. LOL
I am content with HSPA+ for downloads but LTE would come in handy for uploads which are quite slow on HSPA+.

Oh gotcha thanks. Yeah that's really cool for Tmobile customers I guess since it may future proof the device a little bit more now that TMobile is getting ready to roll out their LTE sometime in the next year. (or few months if what they claim is truth)

They're already rolling LTE as we are speaking. We should see more cities with LTE by the end of this year. They won't stop until the cover the whole country. AT&T, Sprint and Verizon are still rolling out LTE. Lol

i know we don't have the modem or the kernel yet, but is there a chance kitkat modem would re-enable 4G? There was some rumor going around about a 4G version of the Nexus 4 and some say it will just be a software modification.

it will never happen.
even though the nexus 4 has a lte radio, it was never approved by tbe fcc. since it was never approved by the fcc, it would be illegal for the nexus 4 to use the lte radio/band in the united states, at the very least.
Just use a hybrid radio... Officially there's no filling for LTE by Google/LG for the FCC.

4g as in hspa+? Or lte?
Hspa+ is native. Lte works fine with an older or hybrid radio and the lte 'fast T-Mobile' APN.
I read this on Engadget a few days ago bored at work.
Here's a link for you with more detail

I just bought a galaxy note 4 SM-N910U
I'm trying to figure out if it supports LTE in Canada (Rogers)
I've read conflicting sites that say it can do LTE and some other sites that say it won't.
Whats the verdict on this?

I'm on virgin (bell Canada), and my N910U gets LTE, although it burns the battery like nobody's business. So I've switched it back to HSPA+.

4G and LTE are referred to the same thing.
