Hi,
I did this guide to unlock LTE bands on my Galaxy S5 G900F, but it doesn't work.
Everything in the QXDM is ok and registered after reboot.
Is it because the phone is really made to not support band 4 ? Is there a hardware difference between G900F and G900W8 or this is simply the ROM that activate/desactivate bands ?
By the way, band 4 doesn't exist in NV browser (there are 1/7/13/17/40 bands only). Sounds like a hardware limit, but I want to be sure.
I'm running on Phoenix v7.
Thank you,
Samuel
I'm not posting because I have a solution to your problem. But I just wanted to say that I have the same exact issue. Same hardware, trying to enable the same band too. I've succeeded at writing the correct NV memory value (524511) and it sticks on reboot but the band is still not enabled. Mind you I haven't figured out how to tell which bands are enabled. I'm also running Phoenix Rom V7.
Perhaps we could get some momentum going on this issue.
Did you ever get your phone on Lte band 4?

Hi exiledfear!
I also have a Galaxy S5 SM-G900F (International version) that I bought in the US last year and want to enable Band 4 so I can use LTE in my country Argentina. I have not attempted to root my phone or write to NV yet, I first want to check whether someone was actually able to get it working using the instructions from http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/general/how-to-add-rf-lte-frequency-bands-to-t2886059
I will really appreciate if you could provide any hints or tips on how to achieve this
Thanks

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:

Glad that you sorted it out.
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.

Hello,
I received my Oneplus 2 today and it does not support the LTE Band 3. It`s the north USA Version and i would like to ask if anyone figured out a method to unlock the LTE Band 3 (1800mhz) . It`s because the Hardware of the Oneplus USA Version is the same like the European version.
best ragards
That would be amazing if some one could figure that out. But as I did my research it seems that it's not possible that there's a hardware difference.

Should be the same procedure as the HTC M9 since they're the same processor. And for the prep work (drivers and enabling the modem diag mode) as in this thread for the OnePlus One.

Do the changes to the band stay after rebooting or upgrading the OS to a newer version? I wanted to unlock band 3 as well on my OP2.
I haven't tried writing the modem configuration yet to see if it sticks or not but was able connect the phone and read the configuration from it by following the instructions from the 2 posts I mentioned.
Say if you got Chinese oneplus 2 and changed software on it would it work on bands 20 I've seen this question asked before but can't find the post
Sent from my LG-H815 using XDA Free mobile app
anyone found a way to unlock band 3?
Have a look at this post
I suggest you to keep 3G instead of LTE because battery draining is so faster under LTE Mode. If you stay a place that have a poor LTE signal,that would be your battery killer.

Hi, this research includes some whitepaper research?, Does it actually has different hardware?, just wondering if someone knows this by solid proof?
To know if there is hope for us (Buyers of wrong OP2 version )
I'm using A2005 usa model in India and I'm unable to use it on Airtel 4G in India. When I spoke to the OnePlus customer service they said it will need to replace the motherboard as it's a Hardware issue. I'm waiting for the motherboard to arrive from china as they don't have it yet in India. So basically it's a Hardware issue on oneplus 2 unlike it's ancestors.

Ok, guys, I`ve unlock NVram to write. Now I can save any values to change enabled bands.
Intruction:
Requirements:
OnePlus 2 with TWRP and rooted.
QXDM Pro, drivers, etc, as described here http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-unlock-aditional-bands-qualcomm-t2877031
Stock ROM OnePlus2Oxygen_14_OTA_011_all_1512111634.zip.
Attached file.
Just unzip attachment and replace file in ROM OnePlus2Oxygen_14_OTA_011_all_1512111634.zip, in RADIO folder. Flash via twrp.
After boot you will see warning "NV backup corrupted" or something like this, dont worry.
Use QXDM to change band as you want, reboot and check. Voilya. But LTE will not work, because it is hardware issue, lol.
A few words about attached file. I just unzip this file from stock ROM, search AC 1Ah (6828 little endian) and DB 08 (56072, US LTE band) together and replace DB 08 with DF 10. Dont ask, what I did, I dont know, lol. But it is work.

There is easier way to do that without corrupting the backup.
Simply change the value is QXDM.
Then in the phone dial *#268#
Press the NV parameters
Press the Static NV Force Backup.
This will copy the new values to the backup, and they will stick later on.
BTW, to be on the safe side, make sure to backup your dycnvbk, stanvbk and EFS.
Not working for me. Cause com.android.phone crash after dial. May be because my backup is corrupted. Later will try with stock backup. But thank you anyway.
I am using the stock image with the stock phone app.
I am using Mokee, chinese AOSP firmware. BTW, I just erased nv backup partition and keep playing with nv ram. Hope will not brick my phone ))
What version do you have? US/EU/CH?
In case you have EU, cab you PM me with qcn of your device?
Unfortunatelly I have US version.
I know a way to add bands in snapdragon 801 (i did in xiaomi mi note) never tried in OPT since it has all bands i need . but it should be the same. Search google for adding bands in mi note
Hello,
I have the Note 4 910C that comes with the Exynos processor. I can't get the LTE icon to show up and I want to change my ROM to a European ROM like the UK ROM. I can't seem to find it for the Exynos version.
Can I install the Snapdragon Note 4 ROM on my Exynos ROM? Can anyone give me a link to stock European ROM that will show the LTE and work with the Exynos version?
Thank you!
Why would you ask such a silly question? Read all the stickies and all the roms 1st pages and ask yourself...

No mate u can't install Snapdragon rom in Exynos, it will brick your phone.
Someone can help you if you give details of your phone.
@jdomedia Thank you man. Unlike some other people who would rather type unusefull information instead of helping, you actually did help me. Hope more people like you are in this world.
@Ausboy 2011 if you don't have an answer, don't reply. Not all people know the same information or how to obtain them like you.
My guess is that either your phone doesn't support your carrier's LTE baseband, or your APN settings aren't set up correctly.
I wouldn't be able to help you since I live in the US, but if you tell us your carrier, then maybe someone can give you the proper APN settings and needed basebands.
And yeah, that reply was pretty rude. It's not like you were asking something that is all over the forum like how to root, or easily researchable like if the Note 4 comes with micro SD support. IMO, you were asking a legitimate N00b question (no offense).

I think you have given all needed info, but what carrier are you using the phone on? Is it Handtec?
Hopefully someone can help you. Sorry I can't. As I said, I live in the US and am only familiar with the big 4 carriers here and their Note 4 variants.

I'm on EE - but my post was intended as information for the OP. I'm not having any problems and don't need any help. 4G is basically LTE, as far as I know that's just the way it's described here in the UK - in any case, I'm getting great speeds.

4G is the same as LTE !!! If you have 4G icon ,you have the fast internet from it. You can test it by OOKLA speedtest from the Play store
Yes, I know - like I said, I was only trying to give the OP some helpful information. Thanks anyway :/

You can get unstable LTE on nexus 4 I never got it to work properly you have to flash a hybrid modem/radio zip in a custom recovery to get LTE and make sure build prop is set up for LTE and make sure APN is set up for LTE and make sure ROM supports LTE
I've used at&t and T-Mobile neither seem to work properly with nexus 4 LTE
Idk how else to help have fun trying to get it to work

Does Lineage support LTE?
I have a hybrid radio and I edited the build.prop to enable it and then I set the phone to LTE in the "Phone Info" settings and the APN is set to fast.t-mobile.com, but it just connects to HSDPA anyway.
