I am on Omega rom and after flashing the me2 stock and then Omega I have noticed my 4g icon has gone and it has been replaced with 3g. I know I have 4g because have done a speed test and it is around 3.5mb to 5mb per second compared to 1.2mb or so on 3g. So is there a way to get my 4g icon back? Thanks in advance.

Go to About Device -> Status and see which Data Type is displayed. 4G is displayed as LTE:14. 3G+ is displayed as HSPA:11.
3~5mbps is normal for 3G and not 4G. You are probably not getting 4G connection.

I checked my status and it is UMTS:3 on 3g and HSPAP:15 on H+ and I am with Telstra in Australia in a 4g area. It would display 4g when I was on stock.

LTE is probably disabled on settings then. My phone came disabled by default for some reason. To activate it go to Settings -> More Networks-> Mobile Network and check if LTE/GSM/WCDMA is enabled. That's probably the problem you are having.

Oh. I heard people having the same issue after flashing some firmwares. The one used on Omega is probably bugged for you. It doesn't happen for everybody. Try going back to stock or flashing a version of Omega that is built on top of another firmware version. I can't help you anymore. Good luck

Is there a way to extract my Baseband version (radio) from my stock TWRP backup. When I flash stock Telstra back my baseband stays as Me2 could this be the 4g issue, wrong baseband for carrier?

That's probably the issue. That's why it works for some people and not for others like you. I don't know how to extract it. I'll let other people answer this.

I have sorted it out all good got my LTE back.
1. Flashed stock Telstra backup with TWRP
2.Flashed Stock rooted ME2 with Odin 3.04. (3.07 doesn't contain the pit file and seemed to remove my LTE)
3.Flashed TWRP with Odin 3.04
4.Flashed Omega 3.0 with TWRP
All good with LTE and WiFi nice:laugh:
PS. When I did a factory reset in settings I lost my LTE when phone rebooted( wont do that again). It seemed to format the 2Gb partion for LTE settings dont know if it has something to do with TWRP just a guess?
I flashed an international firmware on a Sprint S4, not knowing that it breaks root and custom recovery. I also lost my 4G. I can fix everything except the 4G. No idea how to begin, any idea?

Well you can begin by going to Sammobile and download the carrier's stock firmware. Flash it via odin. Stay on stock until you figure out how to fix 4G on custom roms.
Good luck, Im sure you'd be able fix it by flashing stock rom
Have you tried fishing the Sprint modem?

Sprint Modem? Can you go a bit more in detail please?
Indie offers an "EnableLTE.zip in the i9505 Omega Thread
This maybe fix the problem, OR AT WORST BRICK YOUR DEVICE
Honestly i have no idea if this works, so be careful.
Indie or another skilled person should know of this fix the LTE bug on your Sprint S4.

The modem is part of any full firmware and is usually different for each provider, region etc.
I believe the US lte frequencies are different to most of the other countries so if you don't have the correct modem your phone may be looking for the wrong frequency.
Try this link: http://www.rwilco12.com/downloads.php?dir=Files/Devices/Samsung Galaxy S4 (SPH-L720)/Modems
Flash the .tar file in odin in the phone section.
Edit: just remembered when the first ipad to have lte was released in Australia, Apple and resellers got into big trouble for marketing it as lte/4g. This was because although it was lte it didn't actually work with Australian lte frequencies. So as I mentioned above you will need a US modem. That's my best bet to get it going again.

Flashed it successfully, yet no 4g. Could it be that I need to flash a different firmware?

Maybe check that lte is selected in network settings and you have your apn set correctly.

It's because they're all basically the same phone. LTE gsm S4. We are CDMA. So you would run into a lot of problems. Data being one of if not the biggest.

Don't do it, two different cell technologies (Sprint/CDMA vs. T-Mobile GSM), raises likelihood of ending up with a brick.

Those are TARs. You DO NOT flash those in recovery. Only through Odin.

I'm running sacs rom. And last night sometime I lost my mobile signal. I'm unable to make any calls and have no Internet. And yes I paid my bill. If someone could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated

I had this on stockish v4 two days ago while I was messing around with random files. I was able to solve it by dirty flashing the ROM again. Then connecting to WiFi and updating profile.

You'd need to flash the exact same modem as you had before, however it makes no sense that the modem would just disappear.... Are you sure nothing happened?

You can try calling Sprint have them reset service or if you have insurance on it take to sprint store, you may have to take it in as stock unrooted. My S4 was doing same thing, but I didn't have insurance on it, so had to send (unrooted) in for warranty service through Samsung to have it fixed.
