Do you install both the updates in the rom customiser (kernel and the other update)
Cheers Lee

All updated and seems to be working fine now not dropped in while could of been a weather problem, could you help me with another issue on the alliance rom when I install the v5 pull up zip in the rom customiser touch wiz keeps closing down. I have tried clear dalvik cache and cache and cleared the touchwiz settings in the app setting but it still continues to do this I would post in the alliance forum but it won't let me

Canadian ROM only shows 4G signal icon (with LTE speeds) - why ?

Hi all,
I recently bought a Galaxy S4 337M that was rooted and loaded with a custom ROM. I decided to go back to stock so went to sammobile.net and got the latest rogers firmware for my galaxy S4 (which they said was 4.3).
I loaded with ODIN, all went well, rebooted stock, but the max signal icon I can get now is 4G (even though I used speedtest and am getting close to LTE download speeds I think). Any idea why my LTE is gone ? Did I download the wrong ROM ?
I also noticed that none of the APN settings were there and no rogers apps were installed either. Makes me wonder if it was indeed a stock rogers rom after all.
Another strange thing is that it shows me a bell canada navigator update is available in the google play store, yet its not even on my phone. Regardless, even if its a Bell ROM by some chance, Bell Canada has LTE as well, so I am confused.
Btw I used the standard ltemobile APN settings that I always use on all my phones to get LTE (that always work)....
Any help or suggestions would be really appreciated, thanks so much !!!
My iPhone shows LTE using the same SIM...
PS. If I do need to get an original Rogers ROM, is sammmobile not the best place lol ? Any other places to go??

I believe that all I337M uses that same firmware but you need a CSC changer to make it change to your carrier as they don't release the specific ones with the carrier apps.
Search "Samsung CSC" in the play store and you should get one.
Thanks for the reply.
Seems I need root - which I deleted when doing a factory restore.
The strange thing is that it was supposed to be a rogers based firmware that I downloaded and flashed.
Maybe something went wrong in the flash.
Will try again.
And check out the CSC
i have a bell i337m and i have the same issue when flashing from a "custom rom to stock" and i have to flash the firmware using odin a second time and than i get my LTE icon enstead of the 4G icon, sounds weird and i can't explain why it takes 2 flashes to get it to show up proper, but it does.
i also have the problem with missing phone vendor apps, the second flash also makes these show up too.
also another thing i noted about my phone is if i don't root and install recovery to wipe, odin will dirty flash my roms, even though odin is supposed to wipe it isn't.
i've tested this to no ends, the results are 100% the same everytime.

After flashing the stock Rom, go back into stock recovery and wipe data and cache, then reboot that should fix it. To fix your csc issue there is a way to do it by dialling a number on your dialpad which includes your imei number then you choose a specific code. Search for it, google

Thanks so much for the replies and help.
I wiped the rom just for fun and rebooted and noticed that its actuality a BELL ROM (all stock BELL apps etc), but when I entered my rogers APN settings it still only showed H+, maybe due to network differences. It's frustrating because I specifically selected a Rogers S4 ROM from Sammobile.net. Any idea where I can get a stock rogers ROM for s4? Also do you think this may have affected my 4G/LTE issue ??
Either way, I will definitely flash the correct ROM twice, and then go back into stock recovery to to wipe data and cache.
Thanks again for all your help

[Q] GiffGaff & S4 Google Edition - Final-R1.2 ROM

Hi Guys,
I just flashed my phone recently too S4 Google Edition - Final-R1.2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544474) and it's running great just my network keeps dropping here and then. I have put the correct APN settings so it can't be that.
I've been reading up on it could be to do with Modems? How can i find out the right one for my network? Giffgaff runs off the o2 network by the way! (UK Provider)
Previous Rom: Gummy Nightly (Giffgaff network worked fine)
Current Rom: S4 Google Edition (Issues with dropping network)
Or, does anyone know a rom that runs 4g giffgaff well? Really need a ROM with a working mobile data. (Or if someone can ask for me in that thread as i don't have enough posts to post in there yet)
Many thanks for any help.
Try flashing MK9/MKE modem twice via Odin, untick Auto Reboot.

May break your sound if you've upgraded to the new 4.4 bootloader though.

Still no data?
This solution worked for a Danish guy with Telenor carrier.
"There are plenty of fields in an APN entry they my provider/carrier did not address, MVNO type for example, and that one turned out to be the problem It was set to 'SPN' by default, but it should be 'None'. I found that out be reflashing a CM11 M12 and checking the APN settings.
This particular misconfiguration is of course specific to my provider/carrier, but it is probably a general problem for people with mobile data problems."
Still no data. Wow cyanamod is so much better then touchwizz crap. But how can I solve this problem. Do I need to change on the APN?
I just got 2 updates from Cyanogenmod and my data is working. Finally

SVA ROM v10 - problem - can't find location

Hey guys, a few days ago I bought from ebay a used I9502. It came with SVA rom with android lolipop 5.0.1 preinstalled. I like the rom very much but i have a major issue. It is impossible to find my location using only wireless networks (wifi, 3g)(power saving mode). It can only find my location when using GPS and I am outdoors (high accuracy mode). I have tried to reset to factory but nothing changes.
Do you know what may cause this issue?
Thank you.
update
I have an update for those who might be interested.
I flashed the latest stock rom from sammobile to see if the problem continues. With the stock rom the location servicve works fine.
After a reseach I figured out that the SVA rom is missing "NetworkLocation" that's why it wont find my location using wireless networks.
The problem is that I discovered that the version of "NetworkLocation" I have, collects and sends data to Baidu(something like the chinese google). So I was wondering if any of you guys using an international lollipop Galaxy S4 would like to help me and send me his version of "NetworkLocations".
