no LTE option to select

i have an italian Galaxy s4 i9505, stock rom, no root, nothing modded yet
it is an LTE version and, but i'm surprised that going in settings --> network mode i can't choose LTE, but i have just GSM and WCDMA or GSM/WCDMA auto connect.
anyway, where i live there is still no LTE network. could this depend on the SIMcard?
is that normal?

Yep, same on my Switzerland S4 (i9505)

You will require a LTE enabled sim card.
Whether you have a LTE sim or not you will see the option for LTE.
Your provider / carrier doesn't support LTE since the option was removed.
If you just want to see the option, grab another country/carrier firmware.

i have a no brand terminal, so i should be able to see the lte switch...
i'm surprised of this
i will flash a custom rom when i see one that i like, there are still too few

I also have an unbranded i9505 and didn't have the lte option, tried many different stock roms/modem/csc combinations, but it still didn't appear.
I changed some the lte pref mode setting from gsm_wcdma_only to gwl and still don't have the option. But my carrier activated lte yesterday in my area and i got a 4g signal, so even though i am not able to choose that in the settings it will connect regardless.

ok!
this is good to know, i hope i can try if it works soon
thanks!

Flash it with the uk btu firmware available from sammobile

[A2017G] Unable to get 4G/LTE after b08 update

After the update to b08 I'm unable to recieve 4G/LTE. I tried to lock on the LTE network, but I'm getting 3G only. I'm making this thread to see which people have this problem, and in which country/on which carrier.
Country: Netherlands (northem part)
Carrier: Vodafone NL
It worked on b05/b06.

In b08 thread there was also someone ( crashhouse) on Vodafone where 4g failed to work after upgrade to b08 ...
Coincidence... Vodafone... You'll never know.
Perhaps downgrade to b06 again if this problem persists.

I'm not really planning on downgrading, but I wish someone know's a fix.
I also read people having the same problem but on other carriers.

I'm assuming you'll already checked the settings for dual SIM ? Under network modus you can choose between 4g/3g/2g auto, 3g/2g...

I've excactly the same issue's. I did a rollback to B06. Just to make 4G work again. Hope they fixed it with the Nougat update.
Country: Netherlands, Drenthe (northem part as well)
Carrier: Vodafone NL

Germany Vodafone works with LTE B08 and B09.

Same issue with Vodafone in Netherlands (Utrecht), second SIM from T-Mobile is just fine. I changed slots to no avail. Will not roll back, will wait till next update.

Same issue here in UK on Three since B08. I've seen 4G appear very fleetingly in places where I previously had a solid 4G signal on my old OnePlus One.

Similar issue here (3,UK). Going into Network settings and changing to 3G/2G then back to 4G/3G/2G again seemed to fix it.

I have been in my work office for 20minutes and the phone shows E network. The only way I managed to get it to detect 4G was to manually search for mobile networks and select the EE 4G option that always shows up. Phone then connects to 4G with 3 signal bars and signal strength 108 32.
The phone often fails to pickup 4G even though there is a good connection.
Once phone has been manually connected to 4G it stays well connected so long as I stay in the same office location.

GiffGaff / Vodafone multisim. Using Vodafone for Data. 4G works no problem. I've upgraded using the file rather then OTA

They know about the problem and are working on a fix for it.

Yes, talked with them several times about it. A fix is coming.

I flashed LineageOS coming from B08, still no LTE... It's driving me crazy, it's been weeks.
I'm now figuring out if I can downgrade to b06 and reflash LineageOS to see if that fixes it.

didnt work with BO6

Same issue here.
Country: Netherlands, Gelderland
Carrier: Vodafone NL
Sorry for the n00b questions, but got this phone for a week now and what i don`t understand is the difference between several b04, b05, b06 versions.
Got Lineage working now and came from B11, and in B11 LTE works and i have a full backup from B11 but i can`t flash this with twrp?
What do i need or what can i do to get LTE?
edit: Just followed this guide. And flashed the "A2017G_N_Modem.zip" also and that`s the problem i think wich doesn`t support LTE, am i right?

GOOD NEWS:
I'm a tester for the Axon 7 now, and the developer team successfully managed to fix the problem in Nougat 7.1.1. I'm running a testbuild as we speak.
A public release is coming soon. So stay tuned. @the_cyberspace

Please help me, can't use other carrier sim on G930V

Hi guys, last night I trade in my S6 for S7.
That guy told me the phone is sim unlocked, I just need to manually adding APN and it will work. I am too stupid not to try with my sim.
I am in Malaysia, S7 variant should be G930F, but it's G930V, I tried two different carriers with manually input APN but the signal icon still blank with a cross:crying:
Besides, whenever I change network mode, it will revert to Global.
I can't select network operator too.
Is there any method to get it works with my local carrier? Flash rom from G930V to G930U or change IMEI will works?

flash "u" rom marshamallow..

Flash the "U" unlocked firmware on it. Looks like the phone is locked to Verizon. I would strongly recommend against changing the IMEI because that can add a lot of unnecessary complications.

Can I flash official nougat rom?
Any additional step or modification needed?
I see there are many firmware for different CSC such as XAA, TMK and etc. Which one is cleanest and works better for GSM network?
Currently on Verizon Offiicial Nougat 7.0 G930VVRU4BQC5

phones out of country with other networks, and att USA since note 2 came out.
I currently have s7 too and it travelled with me out of country as well no problems, I get 4g in most places, if not 3g until I can get to fast WiFi.
Ur carrier data bands must not be matching or phones damaged, in my expert opinion.
Once u put other carriers sim u either request carrier to send u apn via text msg where u just open it and it gives u option to save it.
Or the Sim itself will/should have those settings in it. And upon inserting sim then going to where apns are added, u may be able to select it.
A quick Google of bands of ur network can tell u, but I'm optimistic only a very few bands are missing off g930v/g935v
Edit: Yes Verizon phones work on gsm in global mode
There is another option in there LTE/GSM/UMTS
U will have to experiment between global or the one above mentioned, does the trick for me all the time

LTE not working on A2017G with Resurrection Remix - switched from Dutch carrier

Hi everyone,
After switching from the Dutch provider KPN to Vodafone I lost the ability to connect to LTE/4G networks. On KPN in both Stock and RR remix LTE was working perfectly without any problems.
What can be the problem? My first thought is that Vodafone is using different bands than KPN, witch are not supported by the Axon 7. But all the Vodafone bands should be supported.
Is there a frequency band or channel that is somehow blocked a custom rom? Also my device is listed as a A2017U instead of a A2017G, is this an issue? Looking on this forum it seems not really of an issue. I flashed the right Modem in TWRP before installing the ROM.
Is there anyone that knows how to fix this issue?

Hey Maxhuisman,
A few months ago i switched from stock 6.0.1 MM rom to RR Nougat and after that Darkrom and a few others. No matter which kind of bootloaders/bootstacks/modems i flashed, the 4G/LTE data service from Vodafone NL just did not work even even after making sure the right LTE bands were enabled in the free app Network Guru. After asking for advise in a few other treads i was told to go back to a stock or near stock rom.
I am currently on Sl1m's B08 Nougat rom where my 4G+ worked instantly after flashing. I am not going to try other roms for now until i'm 100% sure that vodafone LTE works on those roms.

Really? That's too bad to hear
Thanks for your reply, I guess I have to go back to stock or to Sl!m then. Very strange that it is not working with Vodafone.

You should be fine for the most part. The only difference will be the network band support. You can flash the International ROM. As long as it's not a locked T-Mobile variant.
You'll need to check your network bands of your network provider and the compatibility of the model A6010.

Conversion is easy if need be.
