Bootloader has nothing to do with signal strength or radio reception. Do you mean the modem?

Hey folks,
I want to know that is it safe if I just flash the .33 radio via fastboot command on my N4 with stock 4.3?
And if I do so, can I have LTE back or should I do something more?
Right now I am fully stock and the bootloader is unlocked but I even do not have H+ , I just have H when I get data connected.
Thanks in advance

I think H+ only shows on custom roms.

Hello XDA, just a quick question. I get incredible service everywhere except where I actually live. I've been told to flash a modem that'll work better in my region, however if drive just 5 minutes away I get full bars; so I'm not worried about a regional modem.
Any tips/tricks on signal boosting or finding the best tower to connect to? The apps on the Google store do no justice.

This is really a problem with your network, not the phone. You can flash the latest MF3 modem and see if that helps, but as far as regional modems..I have no clue what they are talking about.

This is the latest modem available for the AT&T i337, not the i337m so anybody else reading this please don't flash unless you have the i337 and NOT ON THE MF3 FIRMWARE.
You can flash with your recovery, should only take a couple seconds. Reboot and enjoy!
EDIT: @jball
I forgot to include that about the MF3 firmware. Thank you very much for adding that!
Are you MDL or MF3 base
If MDL rooted and custom recovery than yes flash a different modem.
If MF3 u can't flash a different modem to my knowledge.

what if you are running MDB? I just returned my phone to stock and rooted with motochopper and I am having this same issue.
When I received my phone it was stock MDL so not sure about MDB.i do know for sure that if you have root and a custom recovery like CWM,TWRP that is not Safestrap than u can flash any of the modems/radios to see witch one you like.GOOGLE is is a friend I use alot to get what info I need most of the time.

Steven is correct, get a signal booster for house. If you complain smartly, carrier may provide. I have same issue, great everywhere but my house. It is just a bad spot or as some call them, a deadzone. Not sure exactly why yours is bad. My house is in a small valley surrounded by tall trees.
I can even go to second story and get some LTE. But, downstairs -111db and virtually no signal at all. Fortunately I have Wifi at home.
Good Luck
I am postin this in here in hopes that someone can clear it up as to why peap WiFi will not work on mja Roms?
I have mja modems etc minus bootloader but running 4.2 because of the WiFi issue. Any ROM that is mja does not work. It connects but then goes to saved.

I have the same issue using the same setup (mja rom and modem, the wifi fix and kt kernel while still on mf9 bootloader). Does it work on mja at all? Those that took the ota? Is it the modem?
I may have to go back to my backup of mf9, which I'm assuming is possible since I'm still on mf9 bootloader... Is this correct? Should I try to Odin the mf9 modem while still on mja?

Were your phones completely stock before taking that OTA?
You could always flash the nae modems in recovery.
Verizon S4
Liquid Smooth 4.4
Sprint S4
Negalite 4.4
I had to flash MK2 again then update again but it's only because I was half on MK2 n half on nae but my bootloader remained MK2 so then I was able to flash via odin

I'm on the NC2 kitkat leak from beans and have flashed the NC4 modem.
My Lte connection seems to be worse indoors since I flashed the NC4 modem and rebooted twice. Oddly, I can get decent 3g when docked into my samsung smart dock. I only get teased with 4g status when un-docked. What I mean by that is it connects to Lte but when I try to utilize it with an app it goes dead and returns to 1x. Should I try flashing an older modem, perhaps MJE or MJ7?
Thanks!

Did you try the MJ7 radio. I flashed it today (NC2 beans leak rom with MJ7 modem) and it was no better. My best Data radio so far was MI9 de la vega rom with MJE radio, but the calls were not coming in as well as the newer/older modem flashes.
