is there any custom 4.2.2 ROM which have LTE working?
saw few posts about stock and LTE working on some radio versions, but nothing about custom roms;

So very few people can actually get it that its not worth devoting a whole ROM to it. The Nexus 4 can only get LTE on band 4 AWS and this exploit was fixed in radio version .48 by Google. If you live in an area covered by AWS LTE, which are few and far between right now, then there are a number of threads on how to activate it.
It's not the ROM that needs changing, just make sure you're on an older bootloader/radio and you'll get LTE if your network supports it - stock or custom
unfortunately I updated the OTA, and the LTE support is broken now
for that I was thinking maybe some smart guys figured out something

Manually flash the older bootloader/radio from the 4.2.1 system image
here is the thread on fixing LTE after the 4.2.2 update

I recently bought a brand new i9505 while on vacation and would like to use it on the Wind network here in Canada. Given that Wind uses AWS bands 1700/2100, the phone did not work out of the box. However, I read this thread that discusses unlocking AWS on i337 phones which have the same hardware as the i9505 (Qualcomm Processor and 4G). The fix didn't work on the i9505 given the difference in model numbers and the QCN files.
Can anyone help me get access to the correct QCN file for the i9505 to unlock these bands? or if you know of another way to unlock the bands, I would really appreciate your help.
Tried already. DIDNT work.

I have the same issue, got phone from 3 UK, i9505 and paplied the process you have in your link and now all other network modes disappeared.
I don't know how to fix it.
I have the exact same problem as the thread starter too. Got my i9505 from HK and would like to get it working on Wind Mobile/T-Mobile which uses 1700 for AWS. I read the same page about enabling AWS bands for AT&T s4 but the model number is different and the QCN file won't work.
Any helps are appreciated
bump for this, I'm in the same boat, any help would be appreciated. I did however, out of curiosity, try the instructions posted in the OP but it messed up my phones radio and couldnt recognize my bell SIM. Good thing i made a backup of my I9505 QCN before flashing the 337_AWS.qcn file, I was able to restore from the back up.

Hello,
Can you PM me the file as well?
thanks & regards,

I've been researching this for a while all over the internet and been hearing mixed things at both ends of the spectrum as to whether it can work or not, if there is a concrete answer to this please post or pm me about it, in all honesty this is the main reason I joined the forum , it would help and i appreciate it greatly
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
Need help as well
I cannot find a QCN file to save my life for this. I have the nv writer reader program and it works perfectly to restore my IMEI. SaHiLzZ, do you have a file that would unlock ATT or TMobile bands? Or perhaps we can develop a guide of what NV items to modify to unlock bands? As far as I know it is a world edition phone and is compatible with all GSM and LTE frequencies. Mine makes calls on a SIM, but no data.

You can count me in on this.
I am also looking to enable AWS on my recently acquired S4 i9505.
Has anyone tried one of those many tutorials to unlock LTE band 4 on i9505? Sorry for bumping this, but I've found some traces here and there, but no confirmation
I tried it and nearly bricked the phone.
