[Q] No LTE option in Mobile Network

Hi guys,
I am sorry if this has already been asked and already been solved.
I have a Samsung galaxy Note 3, it is the N9005 version I bought it from someone here in the UK he got it as an upgrade on his contract from Mobilephonesdirect.co.uk
I am on Three network and I am on 4.4.2, I live in london.
I am supposed to have 4G however I cannot see the LTE option in Mobile networks, all I have is: WCDMA/GSM (Auto connect) , WCDMA only and GSM only.
my CSC is : N9005OXXENB1 , AP N9005XXUENB4 and CP N9005XXUENB1
I have rooted my device as i heard that might help? but havent changed any settings?
I am kind of a noob in all of this ?
would really appreciate your help ..
thanks

It does not matter. First at all you have to see it in options and set it on. Second is if your provider enabled it to use. Make sure that you have USIM instead regular SIM card fitted to proper size.

I Had The Same.Do This:
using root explorer go to:
system/data/property
using its text editor open the file:
persist.radio.lteon
change from false to true
REBOOT
IT COMES UP AFTER 3 REBOOTS FOR ME
Sorry For The Quote

This is something I deal with about 18 times a day these days... The joys of a provider launching LTE...
What happens is that each csc version has its own file with in it a list of all providercodes followed by a 1 or 0. If set to 0, the LTE option doesn't appear in the interface.
The sneaky buggers disabled the dialer code for manually enabling network mode on the Note 3. So ODIN is the best option.
What you have there is XEF, France. Since Three doesn't appear to use branded firmware, you need to flash BTU over it. (this wont trigger knox if you use the official firmware)

First of all are you on 4g network? If you are rooted, try editing this file /data/property/persist.radio.lteon file, set the content to "true"
good luck

Did you try manually select the band?
Enter the secret code *#2263# (*#BAND#) and try.

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:

Glad that you sorted it out.

[Q] LTE Connectivity issue on SM-N9005

I am in Pakistan and using Warid carrier which has LTE Band 3 - 1800. I have bought a used Samsung Rooted N9005 BTU (UK) which is I believe supports the my carrier band . The stock rom was 4.2.2 (xxugng1). I have tried all the methods to make the LTE option available but nothing works. Here are the methods I tried :
1. Changing the persist.lteon file, it did not work
2. Changing the lteon_netlist.xml"located in /system/csc/common/etc
3. Change from Service Mode gwl
4 . Alot of other ways
Laslty, I installed a custom rom Lollipop by AryaMOD. The ROM worked well and I could see the LTE option in Mobile Networks menu. Unfortunately, the LTE does not work and still I see the Edge connected. I have verified the APN settings and they are perfect according to my Carrier required parameters. Also, I updated my Modem but still all invain.
Could some one help me to figure out the issue that could be there?
I will really appreciate quick response.

Have you tried a new SIMcard? 90% of the 'LTE doesn't work' cases (in customer services) are related to old or damaged SIMcards.

Have tried my sim in another 4g supported phone, and it worked perfectly on LTE/4g

Custom or modifying modems

I have N910C and I live in Japan.
Note 4's are not sold in Japan at all.
My phone was sold in the UAE.
I want to modify the current modem.bin file, to match the settings of a Japanese Note Edge.
I did a side-by-side comparison using *#0011# on my n910c and S5 Active.
The S5 Active: Band 1, 4 bars signal, LTE
n910c: Band 1, 1 bars signal, 4G/LTE
So can I somehow manually change my modem settings in the driver?
What are my options here?

Cant change anything on the modem only settings on the phone

In your case you do not need to change modem at all just look for Flashable Csc for your region . As you can also manually edit your(If rooted) System >Csc (Folder) but i will not recommend you.
Cheers.

SM-G530F - 4G sign on sim card slot but no options in the settings

I have a Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime SM-G530F which has a 2G/3G/4G sign beside of the first sim card slot but there is no option for LTE or 4G in the system's Settings.
what is the problem? what should I do?
Also it is worth noting that the NFC chip is not working, though there is an option for it in the system!

Maybe ur phne doesnt support 4g

By using *#*#4636#*#*
You can change LTE only or LTE/CDMA.
Not for stock ROM.
I am 530F 4G
See Screenshot using cm12.1.
