Hii recived Verizon note 3 (that's for sure support 4g lte)
recently my operator (Cellcom - in Israel) "realeasd"
4g network that works on 1800MHz and my note 3 won't find and connect to the 4g network ,I tired to search on Google ,with hidden menus ,network settings nothing works... Any guide to force 1800MHz ?
thanks !
Purchased Note 4 from Singapore, Model # : N910G (4G variant). Using it in Indonesia with TELKOMSEL. Bought in Singapore because I wanted LTE. In Indonesia, they are selling N910H, which is only 3G.
Got the USIM Card from TELKOMSEL Indonesia and put it in my Note 4.
There is no LTE Option under Network Mode.. it only shows:
WCDMA / GSM
WCDMA Only
GSM Only
Replaced with M1 Singapore USIM Card and Optus Australia USIM Card, it shows:
LTE/WCDMA/GSM
WCDMA/GSM
WCDMA Only
GSM Only
These options appears even when I put those USIM in Indonesia.
Put my USIM card in another N910G in Singapore (belong to Samsung store), their LTE option disappears
WCDMA / GSM
WCDMA Only
GSM Only
Put my USIM Card in Samsung Galaxy Edge in Samsung Store in jakarta, LTE option is there
LTE/WCDMA/GSM
WCDMA/GSM
WCDMA Only
GSM Only
I used #*2263# and chose SELECT ALL BANDS and just happened to be in 4G area and for the first time, I can see the 4G signal. However, when I went to the network mode, it still does not have LTE option.
Question:
Even though there is no LTE option, does my phone operates in 4G when it gets 4G signal? or the 4G symbol only shows that we are in the 4G area but the phone won't download as fast as 4G because the LTE option is missing and am using the WCDMA / GSM setting?
Isn't it funny that my USIM Card can make the LTE option in another phone disappears?
Try to upgrade
Hi,
Try upgrading your note 4 to lolipop (5).
I had the same problem with you since my device is from Singapore and using in Indonesia when I had 4.4.4 in my note 4.
After I upgrade, the option is showing even I don't use USIM Card.
Hello i have nexus 6P
I have a problem with the LTE sometimes once in a while the Internet disconnected for a few seconds
I wanted to know if it is possible to allow the TD-LTE 2600 (B38) and LTE Band 9 - B9 (1800)?
if yes how ?
this is obviously not for the NA model (H1511)
if you talking about world model (H1512) it already supports both of those bands and would connect automatically to whichever is available/strongest
READ THE [UPDATE] DOWN BELOW
Many Note3 Korean Variant users also reported this case
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2484602&page=115
The problem is that, I can't connect to LTE without losing my Network Radio Service Connection. I can connect to E/G/3G/H/H+ and still have network service, so I can still make calls and text messages, but when I turn on my Mobile Data, when it tries to connect to LTE, suddenly my service gets diconnected and I can't make phone calls nor messages though I could still use the data. I've already tried 3 LTE-Capable SIMS but the issue still happens.
What I had in mind is that it might be because it is Carrier Locked since it is a Korean Variant, but the problem still persists even after flasing other custom roms (this includes Note 7 Port ROMS, LineageOS, Stock-Based ROMS).
I love my Note 3, I will do anything to keep it alive, but still this one problem keeps bugging me...
Why can't I use both LTE data connection and radio service connection simultaneously?
Is anyone out there knowledge and willing enough to help us Note 3 KV users with this issue? :crying:
[UPDATE]
I get it now, when a phone is using LTE it means its not connected to any Mobile Network Service, instead it is connected to Data Network Service, yet it should receive Phone calls and Messages but it means that the phone will disconnect to LTE and switch to GSM/WCDMA (E/G/H/3G/H+) to be able to recieve the incoming call or message. I've tried that with my friends' phones, The first phone is connected to Data and is using LTE and the other phone is trying to call the first phone. The moment I call the first phone, I noticed that the LTE icon dropped to H and then recieve the call, It only happened because the option selected on the "Network Mode" (under Settings/More Networks/Mobile Networks-->Network Mode) is [LTE/WCDMA/GSM auto connect] so that's how it works
But that doesn't happen to my phone, after turning off the Mobile Data (I was connected to LTE btw) my phone doesn't automatically connect to GSM nor WCDMA network, it just stay on LTE mode and I have to manually select the GSM/WCDMA option in order to get Network Service.
So my final question is Why doesn't my Note 3 automatically switches Network Mode?
Note 3
Model Number: N900L
Status: Rooted with Custom Note 7 Port ROM

Does it work on genuine non custom stock firmware ??

No it doesn't, the problem is already there even before I rooted my device. Flashing stock lollipop rom on odin didn't help either

Please start to read about LTE technology and its frenquency bands.
Then find answers to these questions :
1- My SM-N900L is locked to use which frequency bands ?
2- Wich bands are in use in my actual location (country) ?
3- Is it possible to unlock more frequency bands for my N900L ?
i can provide more help if things remains not clear enough.
Good luck :good:

I tried searching the supported LTE bands of N900L but I can't find any sites that tell exactly what the N900L actually supports though I found out on this forum
https://www.frequencycheck.com/models/AZzWA/samsung-sm-n900s-galaxy-note-3-lte-a
1) A / P / T / V models are made exclusively for the US operator market and for no other people, as their indexes hint (A-AT & T / P-SPRINT / T-MOBILE / V-VERIZON). In Europe, mainly international versions are used - in the case of NOTE 3 - exclusively N9005, in Canada - its own carrier versions.
2) The models N900S / N900K / N900L are identical in the set of supported frequencies. If you rewind the topic on page 9, you will see screenshots of one of these models, which show the frequencies you are using, in one of the screens you will see the treasured frequency of LTE b7. I think that users of this topic can be trusted with respect to information in the topic, but no one has elected you the right to believe solely on the site www.frequencycheck.com.

I did try checking my phone on www.frequencycheck.com, N900L is not on the list..
https://www.frequencycheck.com/models/AZzWA/samsung-sm-n900s-galaxy-note-3-lte-a
N900S though shows that it supports Bands 3, 5, and 17.
I also look it up on wikipedia on where the SMART network (my current network) falls on the list of LTE frequency bands, and it shows that it is on Band 05 alongside with South Korean Networks LGU+ and SKT. The supported LTE bands on my country are Band 1, 3, 5, 7, 28 and 41
https://www.frequencycheck.com/countries/philippines
I searched for how to unlock all LTE frequency bands on N900L or Korean Variants or Note 3 but the only option that shows up is by accessing the Service Menu on Stock ROM and manually changing the values, which still didn't work for me.
According to my search, N900L is locked to :
LTE protocol : B1 (2100) and B5 (850)
LTE-A protocol : B3 (1800) and B7 (2600)
Now try to find the specific frequency band used by your carrier (he can't use all of the six available bands in Philippines), and activate it.
Wich stock firmware do you use when trying to access Service Mode ? It must be the LGU+ one.
And what code did you dial for the same purpose ?

When you said activate, you mean select the band to be used by the phone right?
- Yes, I used the LGU+ Lollipop Stock ROM
- I typed in the dialpad, *#0011# and changed the network preference to LTE ONLY.

I mean activate only the LTE's frquency band used by your carrier.
Check your PM.

I've already done that, but the problem with radio service network is still present, I can't make or receive any phones calls nor messages.
