Are you having issues with LTE on an AOSP ROM? Look here for information, and post any questions you may have about the subject.
First, we need to debunk the carrier's explanation of 4g. The carriers will explain to you that if it says 4g on the stock ROM you are using LTE. That is NOT true, 4g on the stock ROM is actually H, or H+, which is technically 3.5g, and not LTE. The stock ROM displays LTE as 4g LTE
So the first thing you need to do is make SURE you are in a location that has LTE coverage. Go to your carrier's website and verify with their coverage map
Coverage Maps:
AT&T
Rogers
Bell
Telus
AOSP based ROMs display your true network connectivity as follows:
G = GPRS
E = EDGE
3g = 3g
H = HSDPA / HSPA
H+ = HSDPA+ / HSPA+
4g = LTE
For Canadian users, you MUST verify LTE / GSM / WCDMA is selected.
The Dialer Code is *#*#DATA*#*# (or *#*#4636#*#*). You will enter the Data Programming menu, to set it.
Here is an app that will access the menu for you:
LTEOnOFF
Reported ROMs the settings stick on reboot:
CM10
SlimBean
AOKP
Now you have to verify you are using the correct LTE APN settings, and if not, add it.
You can access your APNs by "System Settings => More => Mobile networks => Access Point Names"
Here are the LTE settings for ALL US and Canadian carriers:

My lte wasn't working when I flashed to cm10 yesterday. I did the steps you stated, deleted all other apn other than the rogerslte one and restarted my phone. It has been working since then.

Carrier? could you post your settings for help with the guide? If they look exactly the same, just say theyre the same...
I'm with Rogers, everything is the same except for the mms protocol. I left mine blank instead of Wap 2.0
I believe cm10 sometimes resets some settings back to default if you don't reboot after changing a setting. But I'm not 100percent sure.

fixed, thx
Will place in AT&T Index shortly.
Excellent job... noob
I'd like to mention that the LTE / GSM / WCDMA selection does not revert after every reboot on any Canadian S3 that I know of with CM10, and has never done so to my knowledge. If this is happening in other AOSP ROMs, it is a ROM specific problem.
The setting does revert to the default after a data wipe though.
Could users of other AOSP ROMs comment on does it stick on reboot?

I've been using Slimbean 2.6 and 2.7 for several weeks now and can confirm LTE is sticking. However I certainly don't think I'm getting the as high a LTE connectivity rate as with the stock rom.

There's so many factors that can contribute to that... too ambiguous to T/S.... It's a trial and error thing... Location, network traffic, and the modem you're currently running...

This is definitely true. Only way I can tell though with a degree of certainty is with a network monitoring app and the fact that I've got pretty standard area of operation.
I've been running kyanrom though for the past couple days and I'm back to getting a much higher degree of LTE connections. I guess while I'm at it, I can also confirm that LTE is sticking with kyanrom also.

Hello,
having LTE issues (Not getting LTE) with Task & Ktoonsez AOKP rom, I have it set to LTE/GSM (PRL) mode (*#*#4636#*#* menu) and when I go into settings>More>Mobile Networks>Network Mode, I have it set to: LTE/GSM/WCDMA mode, and all I get is H and H+ still. I have the LTE APN and have it selected, and still no luck. I had a SIM replacement from Virgin Mobile, but it didn't do any good. When I put it on LTE only mode I lose connection to my carrier. So I keep it on LTE/GSM mode, but still getting no LTE. Anything I can do to fix this? Thanks. It used to work when I had Team Insomnia's Jellybean rom, I had 4g but got no where near LTE speeds. Would this be a Virgin Mobile problem?

When you were on the TouchWiz ROM did it only say 4g and not 4g LTE? It would say 4g LTE in a TouchWiz ROM... You may not be in an LTE area...

EDIT: I think I got it, I am on a Virgin Mobile Supertab (From old phone still being paid off) and changed from that older phone, that didn't have LTE, to the S3 , I went into my Virgin Mobile "My Account' and it showed my phones it only listed the HTC Legend I had few months ago, but not the S3 itself, and beside it saying this device runs on a HSPA+ network. I'm getting this fixed on Monday so I'll see what happens then. If somebody can do it sooner though if they have the same issue with Virgin Mobile/Bell, that would be great too. The system I guess still thinks that I have the HTC Legend which doesn't run LTE.
Anybody on the Bell network having signal problems while running AOKP? I can't seem to get my phone to run LTE and my signal drops randomly. I've wiped, fixed permissions, enabled the proper settings and still nothing.

I have the T-mobile branded (T-999) Galaxy S3. It is rooted and I am running a custom rom (Frosty Jellybean). I got the unlock code from T-mobile because I told them I will be travelling abroad (to India). So my question is: Can I just get a prepaid sim card from a mobile carrier in India and stick it in my phone and then enter the unlock code and will it work just like normal? Does anyone know if this phone is compatible with 3G or 4G networks in India for internet access? Do I need to be running any specific "international" version of a ROM, or will my custom rom work? Any advice would be appreciated (or if you can direct me to where to find such info). And before you ask, yes I did attempt to search the forums, but I got the following message..."Search is temporarily unavailable. We apologize for the inconvenience."
Thanks in advance.

Use the code they have you on a TouchWiz ROM. Not sure if it works with a variant of AOSP. If you have a T-999, then you cannot install an international ROM - it still doesn't change the fact that your phone is a T999.
Look up the frequency bands for India and find out if this phone will work with it 4G bands there.
Ok, thanks for the info so far.

Bobolinko, you are right that I don't know anything about APN settings. I did do a search and found how to access APN settings by going to Settings > more settings > mobile networks > access point names. Currently all I see there is the T-mobile US entry, I'm assuming you are saying that I need to hit the menu button and "+ New APN", then enter whatever info the mobile carrier in India gives me right?

I found India uses 900/1800 bands and 2100 for 3G. Minimal 4G coverage there currently. Specs for S3 show that it is compatible with all these frequencies so I assume I'm good to go if I can figure out the APN stuff.

I suggest you go complete stock . I send my old s2 with custom rom to my country nepal and later they have to pay to swith to stock rom for some continuous error becoz my brother dont know how to do it. So be in stock .
When I travel to Europe every year all I do is just put local provider sim card and works every time. All bi do is my phone needs to be unlock and never mess with apn. I use various phones like photon, blackberry, dumb phones, my touch etc.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone else had a similar problem or can help with a solution. I just got my Oppo 7 (love this thing) but it seems the network doesn't work properly. The network seems to be picked up just fine, full bars, under network settings it automatically acquires the APN settings and everything, but I can't do anything over the air without WiFi. As soon as the WiFi is gone, I can't browse the internet, send or receive text messages, etc. What do?
Will this help? Won't be LTE, but H+ (my phone doesn't have LTE)

I have mine set up on T Mobile and I'm having the same problem. It's pretty annoying. I've tried a factory reset to no avail. My phone downloaded an update this morning which I hoped would fix the problem, but it looks like it hasn't.

That's odd. There's one thing wrong with this device on stock - its APN database for AT&T is 3-4 years out of date. It was still using the wap.cingular APN when I turned mine on.
You need to manually put in the AT&T LTE APN (pta). ALSO if you've never owned an LTE device before you'll need to talk to AT&T to have your account updated. (Using the pta APN with a Nexus 5 resulted in no data for me too until I had my plan/account updated. You can do this without an actual contract change - for example I'm still grandfathered in to "unlimited data"). In general I would recommend doing this in-person at an AT&T-owned store, not at the phone and not at a franchisee (like most small mall kiosks).
Thanks for the reply everyone, I entered in the new ATT HSPA+ APN and it works like a charm now.

Just putting in the pta APN with no other info was enough for me.

I went to the ATT store, but they weren't any help. They confirmed that the SIM they gave me was lte compatible, but I assumed that's the same thing as having an LTE data package. I'll give them a call tonight and let you all know. (btw, just re-applied your settings and still no luck)
edit: called.. and they claim that all accounts have lte compatibility now and of course she had never heard of the OF7a
The settings entropy posted were the exact settings my N5 had which I copied over and worked fine. One thing to be aware of is that mine says 4G on LTE and then either H or H+ for those, not sure if this applies only to my service area or what and another might show differently. At any rate if you're getting 4G showing you might wanna run speedtest and see if you are getting LTE.

AT&T's SIMs have been LTE compatible for years, even before AT&T had an LTE network. I need to check to be sure, but I'm fairly certain my SIM is still the original "cut down SIM" that I've had since 2011 at least.
It's your account that needs to be LTE-enabled.
Don't call. Phone support is awful. Go to a corporate-owned AT&T physical store. That's where the competent staff are.
(In my case, I originally did the LTE upgrade on a Nexus 5 - if you put a SIM into a Nexus 5 that doesn't have LTE on the account, you'll get a text message saying to call AT&T.)
Hello!
I am new to the forums as far as posting goes but I am very familiar with XDA. Anywho, I've been struggling with my galaxy s3 for a few months now and finally figured out how to get the LTE option working again without flashing to a stock ROM, saving the settings and flashing a new zip. What was happening for me is I was able to get 2G/3G, hspa+, and Edge service but was never able to get LTE no matter what I did. Even when I was using cm11 4.4.2! The problem is with the APN profiles that are set.
Ok, so here are the instructions that have worked for me..
1) go to settings>mobile networks> Access Point Names
**you should see multiple settings to choose from**
2)Tap menu and reset to default.
** The options should now be blank**
3) Tap the "+" icon to set up a new APN profile and set the values accordingly.
Ignore the parentheses I used in the addresses. I am new so I cannot post "links" on this forum.
Name:*ATT HSPA+
APN:*phone
Proxy: <Leave in Blank>
Port:*<Leave in Blank>
Username:**<Leave in Blank>
Password:**<Leave in Blank>
Server:*<Leave in Blank>
MMSC:*(http//mmsc.mobile.att(.net)
MMS proxy:*proxy.mobile.att(.net)
MMS port:*80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type:*<Leave in Blank>
APN type:*default,supl,mms,hipri
APN Protocol: Leave it to the Default one
Bearer: leave it to the Default one
4) Tap menu>save and set "ATT HSPA+" as the current profile.
5) Press back to return to Mobile Network Settings and select Network Operators.
6) the phone will scan for nearby provider and once it completes choose "ATT"
7) Navigate back to Mobile Network Settings and you should now be able to switch the Preferred Network Type to "LTE (recommended)"
After all of that, return to the home screen and reboot your device. You should now have 4G/LTE!
*Note: This has only been tested on the AT&T variant or the Samsung Galaxy S3 in the US, other carrier setting may differ*

I purchased an unlocked Verizon LG G3. I am trying to figure out what APN settings to use. I have searched all over and various other threads suggests different settings.
Here are the issues I have in most of the settings I've used: Poor signal, Internet but unable to download MMS, or no internet but text service. I also tried enabling roaming. So what settings do I use??
Here is what I have now:
Name: T-Mobile US LTE
APN: fast.t-mobile.com
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not Set
Password: Not Set
Server:Not Set
MMSC:Not Set
MMS Proxy:Not set
MCC:310
MNC:260
Authentication Type: Not set
APN Type: not set
APN Protocol:IPv4/IPv6
These settings give me service but I am getting between one to three bars. When I used to get full bars on my t-mobile g2.

Thank you.
It seemed to get better, now it is staying at 3 bars, however now I have another issue. MY data is always on even if I disable it.

That is weird. I have not seen that before. I would recommend updating your phone if not updated to the latest version. If you are in the latest version you might have to factory reset your phone.
