Hello,
I recently received a Samsung Galaxy Tab (GT-P1000 Int'l Edition w/ white backplate) as a gift.
I live on Guam. The Tab was purchased from DoCoMo Pacific (NTT DoCoMo's Pacific sales/service provider), but I use a different local carrier as I prefer their 3G service.
The phone only offers GSM and WCDMA option in Mobile network settings->Network mode.
Is it possible to flash to a different ROM that would enable the 3G option?
I'm new to Android, as I'm a iPhone/iPad convert.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

WCDMA *is* 3G.
You need to check you APN to see if it is set up for your carrier.

Well if your APN settings are allright you either have no LTE coverage or it isn`t available at your provider. LTE should be activated automaticaly if available.

my APN setting is right and i am in LTE coverage (my galaxy s3 9305 has LTE/WCDMA/GSM mode and connect to LTE network) but it has not any LTE in setting and i cant connect to LTE
I update to G900FDXXU1ANH2 to resolve this problem but it doesnt resolved

Better contact your provider. Does the G900FD support your providers LTE band/frequency? I would check that first.

i think that i have to see LTE in networks if there is no sim card registered in the phone
am i right ?

That would be impossible as you cannot connect to the network without a simcard

I`am starting to think that the G900FD supports different LTE bands then the G900F because it is build for a different region. Its mainly sold in the far east as i can see so far. Better Google to find the specs and the phones supported LTE bands. You may not be able to get LTE with your device i`am afraid. Good luck mate.

you are right
i have to check frequency bands in my phone becuse i buy this phone from UAE and i dont know that LTE bands are the same as my operators lte frequency bands
You should see LTE on sim2 only. Not Sim 1 .

Similar problem with me, could anybody share some insight
Hi guys
I also had the issue of LTE not being selectable on my S5 Duos - here's my experiences.
Firstly I tried putting another carriers SIM into the phone, and noticed that LTE -was- selectable, but upon putting my own SIM back in, it again wasn't. HOWEVER - after putting my own SIM back in after using LTE on the other SIM, the phone automatically connected to LTE/4G even though WCDMA (auto) was selected! Very odd.
To permanently fix this here was my method -
My phone was shipped with ANF7 firmware, which was patched to overcome the kernel vulnerability Towelroot uses to gain root. I flashed my phone with ODIN back to ANF6 firmware, applied towelroot V3, then installed root browser and edited the system file data >property>persist.radio.lteon and changed the value from false to true, and rebooted the phone. LTE is now selectable!
:EDIT: Upgrading again to ANF7 broke the selection, but it still connected to LTE automatically... So odd.

Hi,
I had the same issue as yours. You can either fix it by a method explained here at XDA and it involves rooting the device. However I fixed my issue by flashing the latest firmware "G900FDXXU1ANJ2" for the month of November via Odin and now I can see the LTE/WCDMA/GSM option on sim 1. Hope this helps
Purchased Note 4 from Singapore, Model # : N910G (4G variant). Using it in Indonesia with TELKOMSEL. Bought in Singapore because I wanted LTE. In Indonesia, they are selling N910H, which is only 3G.
Got the USIM Card from TELKOMSEL Indonesia and put it in my Note 4.
There is no LTE Option under Network Mode.. it only shows:
WCDMA / GSM
WCDMA Only
GSM Only
Replaced with M1 Singapore USIM Card and Optus Australia USIM Card, it shows:
LTE/WCDMA/GSM
WCDMA/GSM
WCDMA Only
GSM Only
These options appears even when I put those USIM in Indonesia.
Put my USIM card in another N910G in Singapore (belong to Samsung store), their LTE option disappears
WCDMA / GSM
WCDMA Only
GSM Only
Put my USIM Card in Samsung Galaxy Edge in Samsung Store in jakarta, LTE option is there
LTE/WCDMA/GSM
WCDMA/GSM
WCDMA Only
GSM Only
I used #*2263# and chose SELECT ALL BANDS and just happened to be in 4G area and for the first time, I can see the 4G signal. However, when I went to the network mode, it still does not have LTE option.
Question:
Even though there is no LTE option, does my phone operates in 4G when it gets 4G signal? or the 4G symbol only shows that we are in the 4G area but the phone won't download as fast as 4G because the LTE option is missing and am using the WCDMA / GSM setting?
Isn't it funny that my USIM Card can make the LTE option in another phone disappears?
Try to upgrade
Hi,
Try upgrading your note 4 to lolipop (5).
I had the same problem with you since my device is from Singapore and using in Indonesia when I had 4.4.4 in my note 4.
After I upgrade, the option is showing even I don't use USIM Card.

Thank you very much and im sorry for my bad english

Try this:
More networks -> Mobile networks -> Network mode
Switch to WCDMA/GSM (auto connect)
Check results
Maybe your SIM does not support LTE, so phone blocks completly (we had such situation on both SGS 4 and SGS 5 with several baseband versions, provider dependent)

Thank You for ur reply
i already switch to wcdma/gsm many times but nothing works ( the SIM Card already work for me in S3 Neo with H+ )
the problem is when i select Only GSM the network work fine and it show E or G in DATA MOBILE
but when i select Only WCDMA the signal force replaced by Block and nothing work until i back to WCDMA/GSM
i think may be the frimware is only for UK and i need to remplace it by a other frimware ?
Ah, but AFAIK, WCDMA will work only on some networks in USA.
I am not aware of any other country using WCDMA...
I only got LTE/3G/2g (auto connect) function, 3G only and 2G only in the network mode selection
Is there a package that I can just flash or any workaround? the "*0011# " code doesnt work
the app 4G/LTE Switcher is working but it still no LTE ONLY option in the Network mode.
I was planning to set LTE only in sim slot 2.
I am rooted. TIA
