Use Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > 'Secret Codes' to check if that code still exist in your device?
If it does exist, tap on it and select 'Launch 0' to open.
(Note: 'Launch 0' method requires root to work).

Did you try manually select the band?
Enter the secret code *#2263# (*#BAND#) and try.
sir, bibili ako bukas ng sm n900l

I have also this model of galaxy note 3 but my problem is i cannot send text message whenever my signal becomes lte. There is no network selection option in the settings. Im using smart postpaid lte sim.
SM-N900L no LTE option
Sorry. I just open this topic again. My unit still the same no LTE option or acces. Pls help. Ty
I have the same problem in the Czech Republic.
Can any one provide assistance on this? I was told by a fellow N900L user that using a custom rom aryamod + Lean kernel might help. I do not know how to install custom rom and kernel. Does anyone know how to do this?
any updates on this? I just have may Note 3 2 days ago, and I'm having problem with weak sigal on TM/Globe.
Can it possibly root and flash a custom rom, I'm thinking to have it on Cyanogenmod ROM
First, check that your SIM/Phone provider offers 1. LTE 2. LTE in your area
Secondly, If your phone is a Korean Original, I dont think it will be global-ready... you may have to update the modem & CSC in order to receive the 4G/LTE bands that you are after.
Third, check the reception bands of your phone model and check that your provider/country uses those 3G/4G/LTE bands. (eg: 700MHz, 750, 850, 900, 1600, 1900 etc)

I have had a brief look in my files and dont have your models firmware or modem to send.. I am not sure if SM-N900L has cross-compatibility with SM-N900S for example, I recall something like that or vice versa..
There are a few options;
> http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares
- Find and download the firmware appropriate.
> samsung-firmware.org
> Try connecting phone at desktop with Kies, this model may have an update per your area of the globe.

unfortunately there is no available stock firmware for n900L...but it's the same specs with n9005. so i guess i won't be havingg a problem with that stock firmware.
I'm currently running CM13 in my n900L, the rom was for n9005 and other Note3 with the same specs as Snapdragon800 chipset and Adreno GPU
It's work for me, i'm use ALL Band
Thanks bro :good:

If you dial *#*#4636#*#* do you get the testing menu? If so, go into Phone Information and check you are set to LTE/GSM auto or similar.

If you input that code in the dialer (correctly) it should take you to a screen called "Testing". If it doesn't then there is something wrong with your phone. This works on pretty much all phones.
@GDReaper: The Galaxy S4 does not recognize that particular version of the USSD code. It can be run however through the Phone Info app.
@khsh97: Please post the following information:
1. Model Number
2. Android Version, found by going to Settings > More > About device.
3. Firmware Version (AP, CP, CSC), found by dialing *#1234# in the dialer or by installing Phone Info from the Play Store and running it.
4. Service Provider
5. Country
6. Is the phone rooted? (Yes/No)
7. Is a custom ROM installed? (Yes/No, and the name of the ROM)
Before using GDReaper's suggested method, post the information requested, so that we can eliminate other possibilities for why you don't have a LTE option.

I ran the code before posting and it worked on my S4. However, am running the gpe rom. Maybe that's why it actually worked
That is probable, as I'm running a rooted and debloated Touchwiz and it didn't work. But as mentioned, the Phone Info app is another way to get there.
Sorry for late reply!
Model No: GT-I9505
Android version: 4.4.2
Firmware: I9505XXUGNE8(official stock)
AP: I9505XXUGNE8
CP: I9505VFGGNE8
CSC: I9505VFGGNE2
My phone is rooted with towelroot however the option was missing before root as well.
BTW, I don't have LTE sim, does that matter?
If that matter then how can I check without LTE sim?
And yeah, the code *#*#4636#*#* is not working in my galaxy s4.
I am going to check out phone info app.
If you don't have a LTE SIM, you won't have LTE as an option. Upgrade your SIM to a LTE version and you should then be able to select LTE.

Ok, thank you...!!!
By the way, why the code is not working on official touchwiz roms?
Ask Samsung that question, but don't expect an answer. There could be a multitude of reasons why Samsung disabled it, but unless they pony up a response we'll never know.
Lol, Nice answer!!! Anyway phone info app can do it so why we should argue with samsung for disabling that code.
I think you must have firmware based on your country to have LTE. Now I'm downloading 4.4.2 for my country and I'll keep you posted
@velizarcho123: And you'd be wrong. LTE depends on two things: having a LTE-compatible SIM and having the proper frequencies in the radio chip to pick up LTE service. Assuming the device is neither region nor SIM locked, the moment you put in a LTE SIM Android will load the APN for the carrier into Settings. LTE should then work immediately. If it doesn't, the APN can be modified in most devices so it does work.
That said, if possible, using the firmware from your home region is the smartest idea, as Samsung does modify the firmware a bit, usually by removing languages other than those spoken in the region.

All firmwares have LTE, I does a trick - rooted my phone and modified a system file that enables LTE in the network menu. This is stupid Samsung restriction.

Reread my post. You were able to modify the firmware, but that modification would not have worked if the SIM wasn't capable of LTE and the radio chip didn't support the frequencies used.
EDIT: Just to clarify, Samsung modifying firmware to remove the option to use LTE does not mean the firmware doesn't support LTE. Clearly it has to support LTE if your modification worked. This means that firmware is eliminated as a variable, leaving the two remaining variables as the SIM and the radio chip.
Hi all how to change csc on n910c? Just now i test with *#272*imei# its not working..tried on n3 it will popup special menu to change n will be factory reset after that...can someone explain is this cause od android 4.4.4?

would love to give a try, but sadly root will require knox being void currently. Can you explain to me what the CSC does to a phone? I have been trying to get LTE to work on my phone.

Sorry I have no idea on LTE.
CSC (Consumer Software Customization, aka Sales Code, or Region Code) is just a customization for different region/country/territory.
Regarding the code *#272*imei# to change the CSC, AFAIK that code does not exist anymore on new Samsung models.
You can check to make sure if it exists or not, by using Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app > Menu > 'Secret Codes', scroll down and check if the code "272*..." does exist?
yes im not sure if you can help, but according to everywhere i look i have all the LTE bands for AT&T, but i never get anything but HSPA +. IS it possible the CSC controls which LTE bands to use based off of country?
Hi. I'm trying to select RF LTE Only using secret code "2263" via *Phone info* app but my Note 3 is not selecting that option and if I select LTE/gsm only mode then my network switches to edge network.
What shall i do in order to use LTE on my phone.
I'm running Lollipop 5.0 also tried to flash Modem with the older versions but no success till yet.
What could be the possible issue. The LTE coverage is strong in my area though.

No but previously when I was using kitkat XXUGNG1 I was facing the same issue.
Can you recommend which firmware is best in terms of signal recieving and stability?
Mine is a BTU version though.
EDIT: I am also experiencing Connection Problem or Invalid MMI Code
and cannot top up my phone account.
I have a Chinese version of Galaxy note 4 as I live in Beijing.
Model number: SM-N9108V
Android version 4.4.4
Processor: Snapdragon
I recently rooted my phone to get access to Gapps and the play store. After the root I noticed the phone is very slow when connecting over a data network.
The SIM card I am using with China Unicom is set for 4G.
Under Settings> more networks> Mobile networks > There is the option for network mode but it is grayed out and is selected as 2G only. I can not select it or change it. Has anyone had any problems with this or any solutions? Thanks in advance.
