Use the "Nexus Root Toolkit" and then flash it
https://www.google.com/url?q=http:/...ds-cse&usg=AFQjCNH-bSgaqArJI8lsht1Oeb6oi5CbCA
It will work for your nexus 4
I hope that helps you
OK. So what's the difference between the LTE enabler and the LTE modem? Because I'm trying to do both and don't want to confuse the two.

When you flash the newest version of the Enabler it will also flas the latest hybrid modem. THe you go to your dialer and tap in the following *#*#4636#*#* and a screen will pop up and select phone information . You will then be presented with a screen that will list all the phone info.. move down to where it says select prefered network type. Press on it and it will offer you a selection of options.
I hope this helps. Let me know how it goes

This enables LTE on the phone. It has the physical capability to operate on LTE, however, the phone never got FCC approval for it, so LG left LTE off by default, with HSPA being the fastest spectrum it is capable off without modifying the modem and files. Flashing this package will modify your modem an build.prop to allow it to operate on the LTE Band 4 spectrum, which is what is used in the US. If you are outside the US, you will only see any benefit if Band 4 is used in your area.
Cliff Notes is that it makes your mobile data a whole lot faster.

Precisely what I needed to hear. Thank you sir!! :victory::good:
So. The reason I hadn't done this yet is because my phone was broken. Now that it's fixed, I'm back with it. So what are the steps in getting this done?

I'm definitely going to buy the Google Edition of S4.
I know they have the same hardware as the rest of the US Variants but I'm just wondering if Touchwiz STOCK rooted ROMs can be ported to the Google Edition.
I will be using AOSP/CM/AOKP ROM anyway but I just want to know just incase I want to test out TW.
Thanks
of course they can, and the other way around is also true, AOSP roms will be ported to TW versions of the phone
See the thing is. There are more devs who will work to port aosp onto the gs4. I can't say the same for devs working to port touchwiz onto google edition. It seems like everyone here tries to get rid of touchwiz
i haven't checked any roms lately, but if there are any existing TW roms, i'm pretty sure it'll be very easy to port them to the google edition since it's the same phone
No.
It will work but it won't work 100%

Truth. There's no "pretty much" about it in this case. It's the same phone. Shouldn't even require much porting, if any at all. Just look at all the tmo, sprint, and i9505 ROMs we've been flashing - no porting. No different here.

It be nice to get a hold of the google firmware and flash it just to see what happens
You guys have no clue if it's identical. They could change one tiny thing internally and mess it all up, which I could see them doing
What maybe different is most of the sensors maybe disabled like in the HTC GE version.

4G LTE
I just got a 4S I9505 and can't get LTE only H+.
(AT&T says it's because it's not AT&T branded)
I guess they'll try to add my IMEI to their data base in the next couple of weeks.
I wonder if the Google phones will have the same issue?
The info I've seen listed AT&T and T Mobile, so maybe not.

Yes, I've changed the APN settings.
Problem is AT&T doesn't recognize the new IMEI.
I put the SIM in a old Inspire (using a adapter).
When I logged into my account I could see my three lines and phones (2 Vivids & the Inspire).
But as soon as the SIM is back in the S 4 my account updates and the Inspire picture is replaced a general picture.
I have even tried to change the phone info on line. I selected Samsung but the i9505 isn't listed.
I'm thinking about using the IMEI from a broken vivid I have, but suspect it would be noticed.

This is one of the things with getting off network devices. Like my carrier only allows their devices to use the LTE network. Any IMEI in the network that is not theirs goes to get on LTE.
Also don't talk about changing your IMEI. It is Illegal.

Does voLTE require a hardware upgrade or is this potentially a feature that all n6s can enjoy?

My house phone is better than your iPhone.
T-mobile is actually testing VoLTE on N6. I think it will be in the OS. Time will tell.
Band 12 volte and WiFi calling I hope but I'm more interested in performance and battery improvements

While that may or may not be accurate they at least have some good news. I won a Nexus 9 from them during the 20 days of giveaways in December so they aren't all bad.
As far as 5.1 goes if its out on VZW then it will be out on all Nexus 6's as far as I'm concerned. Whether or not google posts the ROM devs can likely extract the files and incorporate them into a ROM. Let's see what happens because I would like to use B12 and WiFi calling on T-Mobile. I know T-Mobile has to enable some things in their end for it to work but at least we would have the software here ready and waiting.
With all the issues the N6 has on Sprint I wouldn't be surprised if Verizon wants that fixed before releasing on their network. Maybe the texting and call issues are CDMA related rather than Sprint specific?
I've had my N6 on Verizon for months, and everything works perfectly.

Same, with the exception of the network extender. On the extender, no 3G data and the signal indicator goes wonky. It also tries very hard to connect to an outside tower rather than the extender...
Hope they fix the data icon and connections taking long to actually connect
Have Verizon actually got a n6 with 5.1 or is it just hearsay.

Edit: hit return too quick.
I don't recall seeing anything official from Verizon or Google that it will be 5.1. I think that's what everyone is guessing based on the features posted by Verizon for the phone, T-Mobile comments and that 5.1 has been spotted somewhere in the world on some handsets. I'm looking forward to it as I have a lot of problems with WiFi and Bluetooth which I hope this will clear up. Also, if rumors are true and we get wifi calling, band 12 (t-mobile customer) and VoLTE, all the better.

I'm on Chroma 5.0.2 with the newest radio file (as of this post) with the issue. Glad I'm not the only one
Hi, so today I have installed CM12.1 unofficial on my S5. I loved the rom, everything was perfect but I couldn't get LTE working. My Note 4 (N910c) gets 2 bars of indication in the same room, speed is 20mbs+. When I launch mobile data on S5, it takes long to estabilish connection, then only gets H+, and after several seconds it drops to 3G What can I do? CM is blazing fast compared to stock ROMs, but I can't imagine myself using 3G to YT/web etc... Help please! I have the newest modem/bl (BOC7).
I'm sure you've already checked your APN settings to be what your carrier advises. If not that is something to start with.
If you're on att,
Also look into your build.prop to add in/modify the following accordingly:
ro.product.model=SAMSUNG-SM-G900A
ro.product.name=klteuc
ro.product.device=klteatt

I am not ATT, i'm from Poland so Soo.. weird situation today. I've been in city centre where LTE signal is pretty good. For like 3-4h it was constantly switching between 3G/H/H+, and suddenly it caught LTE. Now I am at home and it still connects to LTE, 2 bars just like in Note 4. I am pretty confused now. It seems that modem/kernel/APN are all right, maybe a kind of system trigger that "stabilizes" the signal? 3G/H+ has 5 bars here, LTE only 2. I have already put a tick to "LTE (preffered) in network options. How about this?
EDIT
Rebooted the phone, again, no LTE
Wow that is cool! I remember my CM12 used to constantly wobble between H/H+ and once I finally gave up messing with it and screen turned off for 15-20 minutes, I'd turn the screen back on and find myself on a 4G LTE signal (feeling great). Once I made a call it drops to 3G, which is normal, but after I'd hang up it wouldn't necessarily switch back to 4G any time soon.
So I gave edgarf28's XtreStoLite a shot and haven't looked back since! It is touchwiz based, but it is light, debloated, lighting fast, and it just works. I'm on XtreStoLite 2.1, and I have no complains at all.
I have the same problem on a SM-G900T running on AT&T. After every reboot can only get H/H+ leave it alone and will grab LTE 10 to 40 mins after the screen is off. Leave the screen on and won't grab LTE. And of course make a phone call you lose LTE connection. And how long it takes to get back is very random. I can't find a solution to this and got a G900T so I can run AOSP. I was tired of touchwiz and trying to get themed apps and dialers. now I am screwed I wish I could find a solution to this.
No 3g but have lte
I know this is probably in the wrong spot so I'm sorry.
I just clean flashed my sm-g900r4 to cm12.1 cyan ROM 20150428
I have working lte data but no 3g, so when I move out of lte area the signal icon just shows an exclamation point, any help would be greatly appreciated.
The way I fixed mine was by removing all apn entries I didn't need. This caused the search for LTE to speed up no issues since

I really don't know why the development stopped for klteusc, but if I were to guess, I'd guess it is probably covered under another variant.
For example, since klteusc is a cdma phone I won't be surprised to see US cellular CM getting absorbed into kltespr development. But this is just a hypothetical scenario because I couldn't find any proof. But it is worth looking into if anyone is talking about it online.
Hey folks , title says it all. I switched to cm13 from chroma , performed a full system wipe including sd card. So far so good but the only problem is , gsm doesn't work. I can't switch to it. Not from the settings and not from the dialer hidden menu. When i select gsm , it immediately switches back. It's always "Wdcma Only". Is this a known bug ? I scoured xda but haven't been able to find anything.
Thanks in advance.
Edit : Flashed the stock radio from 5.1.1 to no avail , also tried the 33-1.07 hybrid modem again doesn't switch. Using the latest December 27th build.
There was a bug report in the mako CM13 thread about being unable to switch between 2G and 3G, perhaps this is the same issue?
I think someones written a patch and just waiting for it to be merged.
Can you explain to me why you want to switch between them? My phone automatically switches, if 3G is available, it uses that, if its not, it drops back to the best available 2G signal automatically. Why would you choose not to use 3G if its available and just let the phone automatically switch?

What you're talking about is wcdma preferred mode. Mine is stuck on wcdma only. Which means i don't have gsm so it won't switch automatically. That and the fact that i rarely use 3g because i'm always on wi-fi somewhere , using gsm saves battery. also on lollipop 3g modem took horribly long wake locks that lasted for %70 of the idle time so i hate msm.hsic.wakelock. But if it is a known bug , i'm relieved because that should be patched soon. Without me having to restore my backup. Thanks.

Thanks for the heads-up. I checked it , i think it hasn't been merged yet. So we gotta wait for tomorrow's release i guess.
Can anyone get their Nexus 4 running a recently nightly (like Jan 8th 2016) successfully switch to LTE? The fix in question was merged a few days ago.
Even though I can go into the *#*#4636#*#* service menu and successfully switch to LTE/GSM auto, or LTE/CDMA auto, and the radio *does* appear to power-cycle, it still says on 3G/H+ (so the status bar icon says). Never had this issue with CM12.
My build.prop also says my preferred network mode is 9, even after rebooting, which should keep it on LTE. Any ideas?
The only way to have LTE is to change that patch to include LTE instead of only GSM and WCDMA but since LTE isn't fully supported on nexus 4, a patch like that will never be merged.
Probably someone will make one "lte enabler" for cm13, just wait (or help)

i saw this and since i wanted to figure out how to build cyanogenmod anyways, i went and built cm13 with the LTE included in where the patch discussed here should have added it. I have yet to test it on my device but thought people here might be interested in it.
let me know if it works out.

lannister80 should be posting a link to it shortly, but i thought i would give an update that i did test it on my device last night and LTE does work with it. the normal issues of making sure you have the right modem and then changing it in the *#*#* thing. i had to change mine to LTE only first and then it would work when i changed it to LTE /gsm auto... but it does work.

Confirmed that this build does enable LTE. I did have to, as zachron mentioned, set the radio to "LTE only" first (which enabled LTE), and then "LTE/GSM auto", (which kept LTE enabled, and will hopefully jump down to HSPA+ or 3G when necessary). Switching to "LTE/GSM auto" first did not work (radio turned off, but came back on in HSPA+/3G mode).
I'll roam around today and see if I lose data at any time (when LTE isn't available).
Thanks @zachron!!

@zachron: Can you show me what source changes you made? Maybe I can set up a github account and do a merge request with these changes. I can't fathom why this isn't included in CM13 for the N4xus 4 when it was in CM11, CM10 etc.

i changed "<string translatable="false" name="config_radio_access_family">GSM|WCDMA</string>" to
"<string translatable="false" name="config_radio_access_family">GSM|WCDMA|LTE</string>"
as someone else mentioned, earlier in this thread though, they may not change it because the nexus 4 does not "officially" support lte

Which is insane, because they absolutely allowed this in the last several major CM versions (12, 11, probably 10 and 9). Enabling LTE was one of the first things I did after getting my Nexus 4 in March 2013, and I was on an official CM build for years.
The "enabler" just messes with build.prop and makes some database changes to make the setting "stick" after reboot, so it must have been an allowed option when it was built (the enabler can't change that).
I don't know what the deal with the sudden change of heart is...

Oh damn it, I have to do it via this site (they won't merge anything submitted directly on the repository):
http://review.cyanogenmod.org/
What is the current state of rooting and custom ROMs for the LTE variant (full code of model sold in my home country: SM-T725NZKADBT)?
I saw some threads like https://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-s5e/help/root-samsung-galaxy-tab-s5e-sm-t725-t3926742 but they are old (but Samsung is releasing updates regularly) or closed or mix it up with the non-LTE device.
When will people learn that you don't buy an LTE late model tablet if you want to root and install custom ROMs. If I have seen this question once "Will this ROM work on my LTE tablet?", I've seen it a hundred times. And the answer is ALWAYS NO. I would think that 99% of the people who buy a tablet in the price range of the T720, also have a smartphone. So why do you need LTE in the tablet? Personally, before buying ANY tablet, I check the XDA forums to see what kind of custom ROMs are available.

Some people want or need the LTE functionality. I use a tablet for surfing and chatting while commuting (4 hours per work day, in winter sometimes even longer). The trains and busses in my region have no Wifi. Why not getting a smartphone? I'm visually impaired (glasses don't help for my issue) and everthing below 10" is unusuable for me. Additionally, I have some motorical problems and have issues hitting keys on a small virtual keyboard on a smartphone.
PS: I don't have bought it already. I ask before buying
Is there any reason why root or custom ROMs for the LTE variants are so rare?

They are rare because the devs don't own them. Many devs have attempted to create ROMs for the LTE versions of their wifi only tablets and have given up the idea because they have no way of trouble shooting problems.
As to your "commute", there is a simple solution. Buy a "hotspot" device. Even a cheap smartphone can be used. You don't have to be able to "see" it because it only requires being setup once. Then a wifi only tablet can connect through it when there is no other wifi available.

Thanks for this tip, but my preference is just having to take care of and charge one device.

Yes, rooting would be me primary wish, too. Basically because of Titanium Backup and kernel tweaking.

To each his own. But for the small inconvience of having to charge two devices, you are ostracizing yourself to the one percent and have to abide by the results. I'm just the oppisite. I had to have Amazon clear out my Kindle Unlimited device list but it had me down for having close to 200. Everytime I'd install a new Android version on one of my devices, Unlimited would log it as a new device.

Exactly. This is complaining why the dev community is not supporting a very very small percentage of he population who have no phone and only a tablet. The simple answer is as you said, use your phone as a hotspot. If you don't have a phone that's on you SMH

Hi ,I have flushed the T720 rom(based on lineage-17.1) to T725 successfully, but the wifi model crashes per thirty seconds, today i downloaded the t725 official rom,and i will try to extract the wifi model to build directory. I dont konw if this is the right way, but I will try it.

Unfortunately，it does not work. I built it successfully,and flush it to T725, but the device cannot boot successfully, it's stuck on the startup page “The tablet is not running Samsung's official software....................."
I have no idea now.

Hi guy, thanks Luk1337 for his help, i have built a rom for samsung t725 successfully, it bases on t720 and lineage-17.1 , I have modified the wifi model (source extracted from samsung official rom) and finally it works on my t725c . I only tested the wifi connection and have not tested the lte model because i have no idle sim card to test.
So if you need it ,you can build it by yourself ,with some special configurations. Or I can share you the rom I built yesterday.
I suggest sharing it for the public as I don't have time nowadays for tests and backups.
But a huge thx for the efforts

ok, but where to upload it? it has a large size with 866 003KB. I can noly use Baidu Cloud Disk now , but seems that not some people use it outside of China .
pls post an available upload address below.

in telegram messenger you can send files up to 1.3Gig. You can open a channel there
Luk1337 should upload it to hes website like other rom he have there. I have the SM-T725 and i would like to use your lineage os on it. Luk1337 is going to update it regulary like the SM-T720 rom he have.

yes ，the wifi works fine. In some countries, you may need to configure captive-portal, to avoid the wifi connection error prompts.

if you connect to a wifi ,google will try to connect to a websit to verify the quality of it. and if you get a prompt "Connected, no internet", it means that you need to config the captive-portal, use the command below:
Code:
adb shell settings put global captive_portal_https_url https://connect.rom.miui.com/generate_204
Note: https://connect.rom.miui.com/generate_204 is working for China area, you should replace it to your own country's server url.
