Fixed. National roaming not working. Norway

Edit: writing it down helped me understand that i actually never activated "2g or 3g or 4g" in elixir2>information>telephony>turn 4g on.
So this was how i got onecall to work properly, in case there's other Norwegians with the same problem.
___________
In areas where my provider doesn't have reception it uses another provider. My phone then shows that it's roaming and that it has data connection, but in reality it doesn't, i can't access the net. Roaming is activated, the apn of my provider is setup correctly. My provider uses 2g and 3g, the other provider uses 4g as well. When the issue appears it doesn't help to turn on and off airplane mode, doesn't help to turn off and on obile data or to reboot the phone. The problem appears no matter if I choose the other providers network manually or let the phone do it automatically. I tried every possible setting in elixir2 regarding "preferred connection speed - 2g only, 3g onlyn 2g or 3g or 4g and so on.
Anyone with a similar issue on this or a different phone and a possible solution?

First of all, if you haven't done it already, put the "gsm/wcdma" (or something similar, it has to have both of them anyway) setting on mobile networks. If you still can't get 3g, try searching for all available mobile networks. When the search ends, select a 3g network according to your carrier (e.g. vodafone 3g if your sim is vodafone).

i think the problem is with with band.in phone description it sais GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz(2G) - WCDMA 850/2100MHz(3G),but in mtk engineer i can't select wcdma 900 and wcdma 2100 doesn't apear(band for 3g for vodafone) so i think this is motive i can't conect 3g.can i do somthing about that??

[Q] [i9505] data connection on 2g (edge) only, 3g and lte doesn't work at all

Hello,
I upgraded my plan to one which includes LTE data transfer. When I turn on mobile data connection (with data roaming allowed) phone connects only to 2G EDGE network. There is no way to connect with 3G/HSPDA/LTE despite good signal and proper settings (preffered network type, apns etc). I've tried:
- few different modems/radios: XXUHOB7, XXUHOB8, XXUGNG8,
- few roms: stock 4.4.2 I9505XXUGNG8_I9505YXZGNH2_XEO, CyanogenMod 12, CyanogenMod 11, I9505_-_Official_Google_Edition_5.0.0_by_Jamal2367_Stable-R2.1 and JFLTE-GPE-20150315
With no luck. I didn't used data connection a lot before so I can't say when the problem started to occuring. I tested my SIM card on different phone and LTE connection works... I attached screenshot from "Advanced Signal Status"
Do you have any ideas how to solve this issue?
Thanks!

same error here!

It really depends on what bands your carrier is using. For example, in romania, we have a carrier (digi mobil) that has 4g signal only on the tdd 38 2600mhz band, a band that our phone (i9505), doesn't support.
You should look into your carrier bands, get info on what bands are they currently using and then see if they coincide with the bands that your phone supports. What variant do you have and on what carrier are you on?

Is your phone showing the correct imei?

How do i know if my imei is "correct"? I checked my imei and i inserted it in a site and i found the specifications of my phone as they should be, but my 3g and 4g are completely dead.

Does the imei in the phone match the imei on the label under the battery?

Messed up my radio settings on N9100 with *#*#4636.

My Note 4 does not allow to latch to 2g network when 3g is available.So I changed the settings in device info *#*#4636#*#* accessed via Advanced Signal Status. The problem is that i am no longer able to switch to hspa/3g preferred,/LTE/GSM auto back and even edge does not work when data is enabled for operator1 and 2 ON SIM1 .Data works when switching to SIM2 for operator 1,2 or 3.The problem is on two different 3g enabled sims of airtel and bsnl (already checked the sims on other phone). While 3g hspa works without any problems with a different hspa aircel sim(operator 3). This makes me believe the modem sim1 has not lost functionality to use hspa/edge.
Tried -
1.Clearing cache and data of several different system apps related to settings and network but nothing happened.
2.Factory reset
3.Kitkat 4.4.4 Rom flash via odin.
4.Lollipop 5.0.2 Rom flash via odin.
After Googling a lot : I think the problem is : the phone is not able to connect (establish a data connection ) on hspa so reverts back to UMTS for Operator 1&2 (BSNL & Airtel) . As far as i know UMTS does not allow data connection. I cannot understand why hspa/hspa+ still works for operator 3 (Aircel) . When i changed my settings from WCDMA Preferred to GSM only i was on operator 1 (BSNL) . When i tried reverting back to WCDMA preferred it switches momentarily to HSPA then tries to establish a data connection and reverts back to UMTS. Same behaviour is for operator 2 (Airtel). Both operator 1 &2 works with GPRS on SIM2 and EDGE (when change to GSM only with Advance Signal Status) on SIM1 . When not in "GSM only" mode it locks to UMTS and no data connection is established.
SAME BEHAVIOUR IS ON LOLLIPOP EXCEPT

No 3G after motherboard replace

Hi all after wifi not working anymore I bought a refurbished motherboard for my 9505 LTE version. After replacing it wifi is working great but I can't seem to be able to connect to 3G. In info menu (*#*#4636#*#*) I read -voice network: GSM and -data network: EDGE, no matter what I set in preferred network type. I contacted phone company (3 Italy) and they say mi sim card is correctly registered on the network and I should get at least H+.
Tried all the latest modem/bootloader avaiable, now I am on I9505XXUHQC1 (GSM/NON-HLOS COMBINED).
Also tried manual network selection and I can only have signal if I set 2G as preferred network type in Settings-WiFi and Mobile-Mobile network.
Any ideas?
Thanks
