Secondly, contact your network operator to enable 4G on your SIM.
Your phone will automatically connect to 4G networks when 4G singal is available even if its really low (1bar)

Do you have Snapdragon or Exynos CPU? Exynos does not support LTE nor 2160p, only Qualcom Snapdragon does. Note3 has battery temp sensors and another temp sensor, but Antutu report is wrong, it also shows on mine that I don't have temp sensor but I do and it's working well.

Sorry if this is obvious but did you make sure your phone is set for rear cam? It won't show 2180p if front camera is set.

1. Make a factory reset. Settings > Accounts > Back Up and Reset > Factory Data Reset > Reset Device > Delete All/Erase Everything.
(Please remember to back up any data you want to keep first! In the Factory reset screen you also have the option to Backup My Data and Auto Restore. These are good options to tick before you Factory Reset if you're not too sure how to do this on your own.)
2. Install Kies 3 and conect ur phone to the pc
3. You will see there CSC (....). Remember this 3 letters btw parenthesis close CSC. This will be ur zone code. Maybe u bought ur phone in ROMANIA but this doesnt mean ur phone is from there.
4. Go to Sammobile.com and download the correct firmware with that 3 letters. (Remember download always BLACK EDITION firmware, no others.)
5. Flash it through ODIN.
6. Enjoy LTE now

Hi,
I think your code you are looking for is "XXX" or "NC4". I'm not quite sure...
May be the best to proceed with step 4 and check that download page whether there is a firmware with one code guess. As far as there is no match with the other, I think you can safely proceed.

I think the reason is, why you dont have LTE, is that samsung didn't build pakistan firmware for i9505.

Then your provider uses a band/frequency which is probably not supported by the S5.

Mate there is no option to activate LTE, its your provider who has to provide you the key (i.e convert the signals you receive to the band/frequency that of a 4G).
Contact your provider and ask them to activate 4G for your connection. I had to do this procedure for mine too.
You wouldn't expect to see LTE options if your current carrier doesn't support LTE. Can you provide a link to confirm that your carrier is using LTE?
The sm-g900f handset itself supports a set of LTE bands. Possibly your carrier firmware has disabled LTE if they don't use LTE. Again we need you to tell us which carrier the phone was originally sold through and what carrier you are currently using the phone on.
Or just reflash to another 900F carrier firmware, choosing a carrier that is known to use LTE. You should do a search and find the appropriate PIT file for the new carrier and flash that concurrently with the firmware.
Alternately, do a search to find the threads that explain how to use service mode to check your LTE band preferences.

Be sure permissions of persist.radio.lteon are set to rw and then to “true” inside this file, after altering the file save the file and make it read-only.
Reboot your phone, now you will see and be able to pick the option “LTE/WCDMA/GSM (auto connect)” in Network Mode menu
Important: before altering ANY file on your phone be sure you have a copy of the original, unaltered file!!!
I even found: find the file with this EXACT name 'persist.radio.lteon' and delete it.
Becareful with this i perfer to chance it name & loction not delete it.. (onlt if this first meton didn't work...)

i could do a backup rom but i only have stock recovery
Your initial information is rather confusing. Enter download mode and provide me with the model number located there. If, however, it is what I suspect, you'll want to get your money back from the seller as quickly as possible.

Fantastic. That clears up the confusion as to what phone you have, as download mode does not lie. Unfortunately, your issue sounds more like a hardware issue than software, in that the SIM card tray may have failed. Have you tried a SIM card from a different carrier in the device? What is the result when you do so?
Yes i have changed sim card and phone acts the same, i have changed battery and still the same.
But when phone is connected to charger, its working better, but very often it lose network
Some new facts:
sometimes phone freezes (without sim card) after reboot, when first locked screen appears, its unable to unlock phone and then restarts again
Take the phone back to the person who modified it for you and have them service it, as it's readily apparent, at least to me, that you have a hardware issue here, not software.
I have contacted with seller and i can send it back to service... but service is in singapore so it will probably take 2 months to get it back to me
So I bought a Note 4 online, when I started tooling around with it I noticed a whole slew of strange problems, which I believe stem from a firmware/hardware mismatch
1. when I attempt to factory reset the phone it goes into recovery mode and says DM verity authentication failed.
2. the phone is stuck on 5.0.1 which, as it is SUPPOSED to be an SM-N910F, should have been updated ages ago. when I check for an update It says it is up to date even though it is not. the return message also comes too fast almost as though it is not really checking...
3. I used an app called Phone Info + to get more info but the info retrieved does not match what the About Device page in settings says says
Here are screenshots of the about device page under settings

Notice how they do not match.
can someone Identify what the Hell is going on with my phone?
which of these two devices is it supposed to be?
How can I fix this and get the most recent update?
If I need to flash a rom, which one for which of the 2 phones?
It's american note 4 don't update at least with officiel rom or you will lost gsm network and you'll have to pay to u lock it on ligne smoe people imports american variant and chinese because it's cheapest there and change there origines allways do this before buying a used or in grey market even most of them are refurbishednew and come in boxes like new ones go to download mode to be sure *exuse my english*
I've been told that that shouldn't be possible
So can anyone tell me which 5.1.1 or later rom to flash? SMN910V or SMN910F ? which one will be most compatible with whatever my hardware is?
It's note fake note 4 but fake id like fake passeport they change the
Sticker under the battery try seaching the iemi on it in google you'll find it also mismatch

I found out that the verison smn910v version IS unlocked
I flashed on the original official firmware
all I had to do to use my rogers sim was fiddle with some apn settings.
It all works now
That's good ☺
I have the same issues with my note 4. Can you give me an idea of what you did so I can do the same? Like where you got the official firmware and Rom?Your help will be highly appreciated.

Edline08, me too! I just purchased a new Note 4 but apparently it isn't new. Looks refurbished to me as there is a mismatch between various parts. And it has the exact same info as provided by Son of Kalas - the model, the build fingerprint, etc.
Son of Kalas can you please let us know if you figured out which firmware to use? I need to flash the phone since it has glitches. Thank you!
Same issue here.. Son of Kalas can you feedback on how you got it solved...
Hello,
Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Tmobile - Unlocked (Came with T mobile bloatware)
I had bought SM-G935T unlocked, I was using it with Lycamobile and I wasn't getting proper reception. I played around with ODIN and installed SM-G935U then SM-G935T again but this time, I updated to 8.0.
After flashing, I cannot make phone calls, cannot receive phone calls, cannot use LTE or mobile data network. Tried with other sim cards but nothing works. Wifi and Bluetooth works fine, everything else works fine in the phone.
Can someone help?

there are 4 other versions on sammobile that are still android 8.0 and since its a 935t, you can also use the 935f firmware. youre nowhere near being out of options

So what should I do? I think when the phone came it was SM-G935(F).
Should I Install Latest Sm-G935F?
Or if its something else, can you share link?

if the hardware id a G935F, then flash the most current G935F firmware on it, factory reset in recovery afterwards, profit, go have a sammich because you fixed your phone make sure you do this in exactly this order, the last two are optional, but recommended

you can flash any G935 firmware to any G935 device and it will boot as long as the kernel is written for the type of processor you have in your device. If its a snapdragon, any snapdragon G935 tar.md5 will work and boot, likewise with the xynos based tar.md5's. Ive flashed a G935f on a G935V before and it worked fine
