LTE KK roms - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I saw a couple CM11 roms that are LTE enabled. I was just wondering if there are any KK based off stock roms that are LTE enabled. I didn't really see any in the main threads for Android and Original Android threads. I guess you need the hybrid radios for it to work? Is it just flashing the hybrid radio and changing the preferred network in the phone settings?

This is one of the best LTE enabled stock based ROMs. The LTE version will even flash a hybrid radio for you

I didn't even know he did a stock KK version. I'm using his CM11 right now. LOL Yeah, his ROMs = good stuff.
Thanks, man.

You can manually switch to lte with *#*#4646#*#* in dialer, or the "network app in the play store".

That was only for pre-KK. Now you have to have a "hybrid radio" in order for LTE to stick, I think. Or downgrade the radio. I like andersonarago's ROM because you can just flash the zip file and everything is done. I think I'm going the try his stockKK version with LTE.

Roms with lte?

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.

[Q] Any custom ROMs with an LTE radio built in?

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

LTE Tethering on 4.3

Has anyone figured out a way for this to work? The fix on hippowise doesn't work for 4.3, only 4.2.2. Thanks.

AFAIK LTE is not enabled in the newest radio, but I remember there are hybrid radios out there. Flash a hybrid radio and you should be able to use LTE
I've fixed LTE tethering for 4.3. More information here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2416822

@jinjin12 You made sure to enable LTE through the *#*#4636#*#* menu, right?

LTE with att

So I've read the stickies and posted in the forum but I need yk see if anyone can help me out with LTE. I have att service on a stock non rooted n4 I've dialed *#*#4636#*#* changed my network type but it doesn't stick so I can't select lte in my settings and I'm not getting it regardless of my APN settings ... Anyone have any ideas of what's going on outside of rooting and flashing a different modem or radio .. Any help is appreciated ... Thanks

You need to flash a hybrid radio unless you never updated past stock 4.2.1,
newer radioes have the code disabled since it hasnt been approved by the FCC for LTE

The Nexus 4 does not support all of the AT&T LTE bands. It lacks the most commonly used LTE bands for AT&T and therefore can only be used in a couple of cities. If you do live in one of those cities, you need to unlock the bootloader and flash a hybrid radio.
OK I've been reading and I'm a little confused is there a solid working root and bootloader unlock for 4.4.2 ?

You can flash any baseband (aka radio) you want but, in order for LTE to work, you will need to flash a hybrid radio. For 4.4.2, you would need radio version .98 or .97
There was a recently released app that makes installing or changing either the hybrid or stock radios extremely easy. I used to use the manual method until this came along:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/themes-apps/app-nexus-4-modem-flasher-lte-enabler-t2607221
As was also mentioned, AT&T Band 4 is not available in too many areas, so don't be surprised if you never get LTE.
