I have looked all over and I just want to make sure. I am thinking of switching from vzw to attend for the family share pan they have running now. Will I be able to get LTE, hspa, etc. Just as if I had an att version? If so is there anything special I need to do to get it working?

Im not sure if it's just my phone or how this phone was made. I'm no longer able to browse the internet while on a phone call. I was able to do it on my sgs3.

Depends on your carrier. GSM has separate multiple radios (modem and voice). CDMA does not (exception: WIFI will allow you to browse while in a call).
Not possible in the Sprint variant unless you have LTE or WiFi available while you are making the phone call. As Sprint builds out its LTE network, this situation should become less of an issue.
So this phone isnt able but the sgs3 is. These are both from sprint. I dont have lte available in my area but was always able to multi task like that before

The SGS3 is supported by svdo while the SGS4 is not supported. As someone else has said if your on Wi-Fi or LTE (which I seen you do not have yet), your good to go. But not on 3G.

Yeah, it would have been nice. I have LTE all around me, so it hasn't been a problem for me. Sucks most of you guys haven't got it yet in your area. My GNote isn't supported either. I'm assuming (as well as someone else stated) with LTE being deployed, not having it supported wouldn't be a problem. Now the problem is customers not having LTE in their respective areas.

They probably figured they would be up and running before this became an issue. Thanks for info

I'm in Vietnam for vacation, the GS4 has been released here already.Was wondering if I buy GS4 here can I later flash different modem like att or tmobile US to use on their network?
My main concerns is LTE on att and tmobile.

Most likely LTE will not work so if thats your main concern just get it in the U.S unless you dont mind being on 3g maybe H+

Hello.
I have a L720 with a active vzw sim card and the phone is running cm11 but it says roaming in the status bar but the phones 3g and phone and texting works. Is there a way to get it to say 3g of lte up there? A better rom maybe? I have searched and there is no one that has this phone on vzw. Any help would be so nice! Thanks
Have a great night.
I'm pretty sure Verizon and sprint use different spectrums for LTE you'll get 3g but no lte

OK but the phone should have the right stuff but what about the prl and roaming thing?

Yeah sprint galaxy s4 has the bands for T-Mobile and Att 3g and hspa+ networks Verizon I have no clue which bands they use you'd be better off just trading in and getting a Verizon phone to get their speeds

I agree, if you are paying the premium for Verizon service I would just get the Verizon version of the phone.

Thanks this is not my phone just was testing it that's all lol thanks again! The friend that owns this is going to try it on t mobile next but the first time they tried it did not work only data worked for some crazy reason voice and texting came on and went off so we will try that latter.

I'm thinking of switching to tmobile, does anyone know if our device will fully work on their network?
Also, does anyone know of any sprint phones I can purchase today that will work fully on their network, even any iphones possible.
There's whole thread on how to unlock the Gs4 for T-Mobile so yes. And search more.

No not fully, you will not get LTE. Sell your Sprint phone on EBay or Craig's list and buy a Tmobile phone for full functionality.

If I flash a stock image to the sprint phone will it work on Verizon?

No.
You would have to change the MEID to one that is used by Verizon. They also don't use all of the same frequency bands, so if you were able to change the numbers (which is illegal, btw) you would still not be able to get the same service.
