3G 4G LTE - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Does anyone know how I can change the network? Most of the jelly bean roms don't have 4G I'm on 3G with the dragon rom. Anyway where would I go to change this? In the build prop? I know some say change modem but that has nothing to do with it. Any help would be great.

You would think it could be changed in the build. I have been looking through the build prop but just not sure if that's the right place to start or not. Has to be a way to re write it.

Change the network? It's determined by the Access Point Names and the Network Mode. If you're accessing an LTE-capable APN then as long as you're Network Mode is set to LTE/GSM/WCDMA (and your in an LTE area and have LTE provisioning on your plan of course) you're phone will access it if it's the strongest signal for you.
1 bar of LTE is way faster than HSPA+ btw

Do you have 3G or Hspa+ because on the stock roms it says you have 4G but it really isnt , it is Hspa+.

Have you actually ran a speedtest to determine your actual network speed?

I did a speed test and u get like 23mb download but that's included with my build.prop tweaks

You can Change the apn right then add z few modification to build.prop then you should have better faster network speeds in theory

So how do I set my Network Mode? My S1 (I9000) has a 'network mode' setting under 'mobile network settings'. It lets me choose between GSM, WCDMA, or both (auto). My S3 has no such setting or option. By the way, the I9000 always worked better in WCDMA Only mode.
I am on a Straight talk plan and have no access to 4G network.

Terrible Data Speeds

Anyone else getting speeds like these?
Or anyone been able to fix this problem?
Attached are my APN settings. I've read the whole APN thread but got no definite answers. I also called AT&T and they said one of my towers might be down. I doubt that every tower on my commute for 60 miles is down though.

Make sure they have you on the 4g smartphone plan and then Google Atrix 4g APN settings and input those. If everything is set up right you will get better speeds.

Results after new APN. Also called AT&T and they confirmed I am on the 4G plan.
Also after new APN I can't send or receive MMS.

You should have 4 apns if you used the Atrix 4g apns. One for HSDPA one for tether one for MMS and one for the regular WAP.Cingular. I use them and I get a constant 5 meg down and 1 up.

Do I need to do anything specific after inputting the settings? I find it weird that I have data but even slower now and no MMS.

Select the radio button for HSDPA and then reboot your phone.

if you mean disable lte and connect for hsdpa then:
im on aokp and i have 2 different apns (one for h+, one for lte). so check your apns.
if you only have the lte apn try dialing *#*#4636#*#* and going into network settings and selecting another network mode.
Stupid me....I found an apn just called att and I think that will work. Thanks a lot!

It's not working on my either and the LTE option was already chosen.
I believe they screwed up on this, they'll probably fix this with an update.
They're setting us up. They're not gonna give it to us until the 4g lte price hike.

Funny I get 4g like no body's business. I stay connected even more so than my daughter's evo lte.
Try set to home only (sprint) under roaming. Notice my data is a whole lot stable compare to automatic.
Yeah it works...i get 4g. It connects automatically

No LTE CM10 Telus Galaxy S3 Please help!!

Hey everyone,
I just flashed CM10 on my Telus Galaxy S3, but when I try to do a speed test, i get fairly slow speeds and instead of showing the LTE icon, it shows the HSPA+ icon. Could someone please tell me how I can get LTE back?
Thanks so much, and any help is appreciated
If you go to System Settings > More Settings > Mobile Networks, is the Network Mode set to GSM/HSPA/LTE (Auto Mode)?
There is no lte icon on cm10
It will show as 4g

Did you make sure that your APN settings are correct? If not, look around on the forum, actually here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1977232
And once that is done, make sure you click on the menu button to "save" your settings, then reboot.
If that doesn't work, don't know what it could be!

IOT Hidden Menu

For those of you that have good lte/ehrpd service in your area I found a little trick to turn on lte only and ehrpd only mode.
Go into ##data# select edit, select others, then select HDR/1x selection I found this out today. Sorry if in wrong thread, a good way to check if you have lte in your area try the sensorly app free on play store
I dont have HDR/1x section!?

those playing with this note...phone calls will not work on lte only
indeed...doesnt seem to stick unless i choose cdma only. wife distracted me tho so havent seriously toyed with it.
hybrid seems to stick...ehrpd stays off and most consistant 3g connection
cdma only was garbage (.02 down and .04 up)
going to test more tomorrow from other locations.

well...so far hybrid may make a difference if there is no lte available... but my tests really have shown nothing conclusive.
for me in my area (lte) it apears to work best on the default setting.
still a cool menu to play with
