Are there any 4.2.2 Roms that still have LTE support?? I'm not too good at flashing radios and what not..

Well the ROMs won't flash a radio for you; that's what you need. Flash the 4.2.1 radio if you're after LTE, then you can run any ROM you want...
I'm sure you can find a flashable zip of the old radio if you don't want to do it via fastboot.
I'd consider rooting and fastbooting the old radio to be the quickest way. If you used one of the toolkits to root then just fastboot the radio to the device and problem solved.
I recently switched from a Galaxy s3 to a Nexus 4 and would like to get LTE on it as Rogers does not support DC-HSPA 42Mbps. So far from all the threads i have read say there are a few ways to do this:
1) downgrade to 4.2.1
2) Flash 4.2.2 with the .33 Radio.
3) custom Rom 4.2.2 with .33 Radio.
From what i gathered people who flashed .33 radio (or older) on 4.2.2 have been having a range of problems. And apparently 4.2.1 has a lot of bugs in general?
It would be great if someone who has already done this could post about their experience with each of the options as i'm tired of reading pages and pages of posts about how the Nexus 4 is not suppose to have LTE and to be happy with the hspda etc.
Thanks
I am also interested in this any advice would be appreciated

If you happen to lose the ability to make or receive calls on your Nexus 4 on the .33 baseband then you must flash the latest .48 baseband to make calls.
I am going to flash a 4.1.2 ROM when I get home I had a nexus 4 when they first came out running lte went to a note 2 and now back again to nexus 4;I am running the latest paranoid android 3.1 and faux kernel but the internet is painfully slow without lte I really can't take it any more will try 4.1.2 then 4.2.2 with the different radios

I am almost positive that there is no backwards compatibility with Android. Meaning, that since the Nexus 4 debuted with 4.2, you couldn't run a 4.1.2 ROM, and that's why they don't exist (to my knowledge).
to anyone interested i flashed a .33 radio from paranoidandroid 3.1 / latest faux kernel and i now have lte back - now everything is good !!

You're able to make and receive calls using the .33 radio with the latest update from PA?

golfinggino,
Could you be a little more clear/descriptive? What ROM/kernel are you running now? Are you still running 4.2.2 stock or something else? Did you follow instructions that you found somewhere?
Thanks in advance,
JT

Yes was running the latest paranoid android and faux kernel wasn't happy with it and just flashed the latest carbon ROM ( much better) along with today's faux update, lte is working on the this ROM as well
i made and received some phone calls and didn't notice anything unusual, i will test making and receiving some calls tomorrow
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium HD app
tested it today and the call quality seems to be better on the .33 radio then the latest one ? could just be me ? anyway ran on lte all day was connected to wifi for bit and still managed 5 hours screen on time - just picked up a nexus 10 today and in the process of loading up carbon rom on it - that should really fly !
hey again guys thanks for all the responses and sorry about the late response.

I think im going to try the Carbon rom too. Did you have to flash the older radio with it or no? sorry im new to flashing roms and radios and such.
Thanks again guys will post again with my results (hopefully wont mess up my phone in the process XD)
yes i flashed the older radio - the one i used was cwm-radio-mako-m9615a-cefwmazm-2.1.1700.33.zip
i was running paranoidandroid 3.1 but think the carbonrom is smoother
Only problem is that at least on cyanogenmod using any radio other than version 48 causes auto focus in the camera to not work.

What the heck....that is so irrelevant. There is absolutely no relation between the camera application and the baseband. It has to be a CM 10.1 rom issue.

Test it for yourself. Many have had problems with autofocus on .33 radio. Updating baseband fixes that issue. And if updating the baseband fixes it, by definition it's not a cm issue.

Just want to know which ones have lte enabled?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
None, only the .33 and .28 radios have the LTE compatibility.
Keep in mind though, stock based 4.2.2 Roms won't work properly with the earlier radios (call sound is broken).. You have to use a cm or aokp based ROM if you want to use a 4.2.1 radio.

I was thinking about flashing paranoid android but I couldn't find any information on enabling LTE. Do any custom ROMs have an LTE radio by default or do they all require you to flash .33 once the ROM has been flashed? Also, is there a guide for fixing the voice issues during calls with .33 on 4.2.2?
Thanks in advance.

nexus custom roms do not come with a radio built into it. any of the earlier radios will work for lte(.33, .27..). anyways, its time for you to do some reading about enabling lte, read here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2211618

You can't built a lte radio in a ROM.....I know what you meant but yeah. Lol

I want to install ParanoidAndroid 3.99 which is Android 4.3 on my Nexus 4 (T-Mobile) and I wanted to know what Baseband you guys Recommend to have LTE enable because I read that you can lose LTE when upgrading to a newer baseband is it Okay to use the Stock 4.2.2 baseband on a 4.3 rom ?
LTE was a feature that was added through an altered radio. LTE was never meant to be part of the Nexus 4 features.
Flashing a ROM does not usually flash a radio.
Thanks For the reply sorry I new to the Nexus 4 But I'll flash the ROM then
