I just bought Verizon prepaid jetpack and, of course, first thing I did was to take sim out of it and stick to my 910T.
To my surprise, it showed full 4G LTE.
I am posting through it now.
I figured, it's interesting piece of info that I couldn't find earlier.
APN is vzwinternet if anyone wants to try.

What were the data speeds?

Didn't try speedtest out of greed. But overall experience seemed decent.

I did a search and found nothing on the GT Note using simple Mobile.
Has anyone tried this as yet, and can you tell us what the speeds are like so far.
And what package did you go with.
Looks like they use T-Mobile's network, which means nothing over EDGE speeds.
I'm running one of the AT&T MVNOs on a trial basis and so far I have not been disappointed. I am loathe to give up my T-Mobile plan but unless there's a breakthrough in getting 1700/2100 AWS working on this thing I might have to make the move permanently.
AT&T GoPhone offers unlimited everything for $50 a month pay-as-you-go fyi.

Go phone sim cards are locked to the phone now. Unless you can convince AT&T to give you a new unlocked one it doesn't work.

I know this is old.....but just wanted to update it. I am using AT&T version with Simple Mobile now. The internet speed sucks big time. On speed test, i am consistently getting 25kb/s. With that speed, I am changing to the International Note next week....

You can flash a T-Mobile compatible modem on the AT&T version, if you're not aware.

So what are people doing now, then??
I want to goto 50$ month unlimited everything next month when my contract is up?
Is there a solution to STILL using ATT GO Phone plans with our GN7000's?
thanks.
You need Straight Talk with the AT&T sim.

What about this? As long as you aren't using any device which has ever been AT&T branded in any way shape or form (like an unlocked Note), this should work just fine!
Will the nexus 4 be able to get it ?
Actually I set up the new lte APN
I forgot where i got it from but
I went into phone info
(*#*#4636#*#*)
And took the lte setting.
I did this bc I'm in a testing city(NYC)
I noticed a slight increase in data speed.
But can anyone confirm this

Anyone in NYC ?

Changing the network mode is not changing the APN. You need to go to APN settings and change the name to fast.tmobile.com and the APN protocol to IPv4/IPv6 and save it. Then do speed tests to confirm if you're getting LTE.
T-Mobile users have reported getting LTE in NYC but the network kicks them off about 15 mins later.
Yes the Nexus 4 will receive LTE.
APN setting can be found at Settings/More/Mobile networks/Access point names
Don't forget to be on a .33 or lower radio

By speed alone, nope. I've personally seen 25 down and 3 or so up on HSPA+.
No. When you go to results it should say LTE as your network. Your icon on top should say 4G too.

Hi eddy, could you clarify this? I was under the impression that the Nexus 4 doesn't have an LTE radio or something and every review video I watch says that "no LTE" is a downside along with the no microSD card and removable battery.
Are you saying that there will be a Nexus 4 LTE version released soon? (This is all for Tmobile btw)

No no there won't be an LTE Nexus 4. The Nexus 4 is already LTE, but you must be on android 4.2.1 or have root. Correct that there is no expandable memory or removable battery. Most reviews say that it doesn't have LTE either because they made the review before it was discovered or simply chose not to say because its not official and The N4 only supports carriers with LTE that have band 4 and that is only a few (T-Mobile and some Canadian carriers).

For LTE, you can have the newest version of Android, but you must flash an older radio that still had LTE enabled. Then, you need to do what other people suggested, change your APN and radio settings.
Honestly I think HSPA+ is quite fast already. LTE is faster but do you really really really need it? It's cool to have and all. Most folks don't even know what LTE is or what it stands for. They just think "Oh it's super fast! I can download cat videos at super speeds!"

I found this post funny because your avatar is Jerry the mouse :good::laugh:
But LTE is just another feature that tmo released. Nothing more than faster speeds and faster killing of your battery on LTE. LOL
I am content with HSPA+ for downloads but LTE would come in handy for uploads which are quite slow on HSPA+.

Oh gotcha thanks. Yeah that's really cool for Tmobile customers I guess since it may future proof the device a little bit more now that TMobile is getting ready to roll out their LTE sometime in the next year. (or few months if what they claim is truth)

They're already rolling LTE as we are speaking. We should see more cities with LTE by the end of this year. They won't stop until the cover the whole country. AT&T, Sprint and Verizon are still rolling out LTE. Lol

Hello.
I have a L720 with a active vzw sim card and the phone is running cm11 but it says roaming in the status bar but the phones 3g and phone and texting works. Is there a way to get it to say 3g of lte up there? A better rom maybe? I have searched and there is no one that has this phone on vzw. Any help would be so nice! Thanks
Have a great night.
I'm pretty sure Verizon and sprint use different spectrums for LTE you'll get 3g but no lte

I agree, if you are paying the premium for Verizon service I would just get the Verizon version of the phone.

Thanks this is not my phone just was testing it that's all lol thanks again! The friend that owns this is going to try it on t mobile next but the first time they tried it did not work only data worked for some crazy reason voice and texting came on and went off so we will try that latter.

AT&T you don't have to unlock it will work If you choose t-mobile you will have to unlock to make it work on Cricket
Ok thanks for sharing your information I appreciate all the help.. T mobile service is very extremely limited where I work (around farm land).. at my home I get very good signal so I want to have a phone that gets great coverage in both areas. I thought of cricket since it uses att wireless towers and is 4g LTE with 10gb Data and unlimited everything else for $60 a month. Does anyone have Cricket using a note 3 or 4 ..I was just wondering about Signal strength and tested Data speeds
Sent from my HTCEVOV4G using XDA Free mobile app
Got you Unique so even though I have to pay more for the ATT wireless version it may be my easiest route. I should not have to unlock it for all the services to work. I chatted with Cricket help desk and they stated that I would need to still have an unlocked phone even if it came from Att wireless.. but that seemed odd to me since they should almost be using the same signal bands as ATT wireless... Thanks for the reply @ Unique

Your phone needs to be SIM free because they use a different MNC code.
Can i get a tmo s5 to work on verizon?? I've read a ton of conflicting data and basically was hoping someone would happen to know fa show. Thanks

No. It's the other way around.
Yes, I'm sure that a verizon can work with Tmobile. I looked in network/more settings there was a wcdma option attached to all but one option... i put in the verizon sim and it asks for a unlock code... what if I flashed a verizon rom??

You will have 3g but not sure if the LTE radios wold be enabled for you. I am working the opposite. VZW to ATT.
