Hi
So long story short, my Tmo GS3 got stolen at my work :/
So my mom gave me her ATT GS3 cus she was up for an upgrade,
i been reading its possible to get 4G on an ATT GS3 but so far no luck,
i know i have the right APN cus i copied the one from my Nex4 to my GS3, i set the network to manual and choose Tmo, but still all i get is Edge.
Does it have to do something with the way i unlocked the phone?
I been reading it has to be factory unlock and i unlocked mine by dialing *#197328640# and doing the required steps.
Can anyone help me with this?

Do a little bit of search work; it depends on the coverage for T-Mobile in your area. It's still a Work in Progress to get the 1700 Mhz band to work on a ATT GS3 since there's a bounty for it in the General section.
Setting the APN to what you have on the Nex4 won't do anything because it's all software and hardware controlled. The software part is currently locked down because no one knows what to change to get the hardware to send and recieve information from the 1700Mhz Band.
Your best bet is to check the coverage map and hope you get 3G service or wait until T-Mobile Rolls out their 4G so the old EDGE will switch onto HSPA for ATT devices that use a T-Mobile Network.
Hope this helps

Start reading from post #246. If you flash the files you must root your phone like it is a t999, also goes for recovery, im not sure about kernel and DO NOT flash another modem/radio.

Hey, I have the L18i Arc S and am unable to get 3g thorough T Mobile or At&t in New York. Now my question is, would I be able to get 3G through any of the service providers by flashing a different ROM ? I know T Mobile frequency doesn't allow that so I guess the only choice left is At&t. Is there anything I can do to get 3G through At&t on my L18i Arc S ?
No, you should have bought a LT18a.
LT18i has no 3G connection is the states as it's missing the US specific frequencies for 3G and 4G/HSPA+

hey guys, i'm new to XDA. I didn't want to make a new post because it seems that my question has been asked. unfortunately my issue is a bit more technical, I recently bought a lt18a and for the past week I have not been able to get 3G to work. I found a work-around that Straight Talk works under AT&T network so I didn't have to pay their insane prices, but the 3G is not coming up no matter where I went. (I looked up an AT&T tower, drove there just to test out the phone and still nothing) I bought the SIM from straight talk's site and followed their direction on the APN settings I got EDGE to work but no 3G.

Hello all. This is my first post as well and My friend has the same problem. I did research all over the web and i can't find a normal explanation to why it wont work on AT&T 3G HSPA + network. Does anyone have any info on this matter? All help is greatly appriciated.
If you set it to GSM only, then 3G is turned off/not in use. You need to set it to use WCDMA preferred.

I finally got around to flashing CM10, but can't seem to get the 4G working. I get H+/3g data, but no 4g. I flashed the CM10 nightly from 10/2.

I realized I had a similar problem on CM9 and found two things:
1) APN type: default,supl,mms,hipri
I added hipri to APN type (not 100% sure it was needed)
2) In mobile network settings I had not selected LTE in the Network Mode option list. (THIS was my problem) It's one of those, duh of course I have that set moments..when I really didn't. So double check that setting.

I believe THIS was my problem. On ATT roms it would say 4G (I'm not in an LTE area) - apparently on CM roms this translates to H+. Looks like I never really had a problem at all.
Thanks! Consider this solved.
You shouldnt refere to to LTE/HSPA+ as 4G. Just name it by what it is. Much eqsier to identify what the problem area is.

Change the following in your APN settings this resolved many 4g signal issues. I take no credit for this whatsoever. This was from another poster and I had these settings saved I just can't seem to find his post otherwise I would have linked it directly.

Have you actually ran speed test to confirm network speed?
Im actually having the same problem... Im using the infuse 4g with a cyanogen 4.2.1. Iunlocked my phone and am using a t-mobile sim (therefore, towers) and even though my phone is staying in one place the signal is going from E (econ, 2g) to 3g and H ( basically 3.5g) (back and forth) and never really stops...also the signal will be at full bars, then drop to no service and do it all over again.
Im obviously having service problems when i shouldnt and im not sure if im getting 4g at all even though i called and they said my plan was full-time 4g depending on coverage... OR..." H " is mobil's name for 4g (actually HSPDA + HSUPA which is technically considered 3.5).. Any help on the matter would be greatly appreciated.
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"

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.

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,

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?

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.

Alright guys, I have this weird problem with my S4. Most of the time my mobile data doesnt work nor show the lte symbol even when data is enabled. Everytime I disconnect from my wifi, my data doesnt come on after a while. Do i need to update my modem or any other solution? I've attached done pictures to show it and my device info.

check your APN & make sure its selected. Try that to see if that helps or not.
I had the same exact issue. Your baseband is MDB and your build is MDL. Your network settings are LTE/GSM auto. Change it to GSM/WCDMA, if you get back your 4G icon then you'll need to either flash a MDB build or just Odin the stock MDL tar file. I did a full wipe and Odin the MDL tar and that fixed my problem.

Sounds like a apn setting mismatch, if you could send screenshot of your apn id better be able to tell and help you fix

Try using these APN settings, It worked for someone in the wicked thread:
Name : T-Mobile LTE
APN: fast.tmobile.com
MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS Protocol: WAP 2.0
MCC: 310
MNC: 260
APN Type: default,supl,admin,dun,mms
Works as it should now. Thank you

Sorry bro, I have the TMO SGH-M919....
I thought matching baseband and software would help me, but it didn't. Was on the phone with tmobile for 40 minutes. I wasnt getting any data in LTE settings while my friend with the note 2 standing next to me was in 4g mode. New phone was sent out next day free, got it yesterday and all is working. Even updated to official MDL

Do these settings vary by region?
State? Time zone?
Or can this be applied to any phone anywhere.
Pp.
Just curious as I'm having the same issue. I've got the t919 but I'm running on at towers (net10) I had no issues until I loaded a custom ROM. Could it be because I flashed a tmo ROM or should I use a att based ROM?
I have an unlocked and rooted T-mobile Galaxy s2 T989. At any given time I run AOKP, Dirty unicorn, Carbon rom etc. I brought it over to Metro from T-mobile. I was getting metro's 4g lte now when I activated my T-mobile phone, I don't have 4g anymore. I get 3g. Is there a fix for this? Can I get my 4g back? Please help.:crying:
This phone never had lte support...

It's impossible to get lte on the t989. Doesn't have the hardware for it.
I know that on T-Mobile you can get 4g, but not LTE.

You need to verify the APN(Access Point Name) configuration on your phone, in my experience this is normally the problem when switching ISP. Incorrectly configured APNs can cause all kinds of strangeness. In my case when I switch from T-Mobile to AT&T the AT&T rep entered the ANPs incorrectly. This cause speed issues, unable to text pictures and videos(MMS), and the phone had problem switching between towers while moving. A real pain. Once I got the APN correct my phone data performance was better then T-Mobile because AT&T cell tower coverage is much better in my area. Normally two APNs are need, one for 3G and other for 4G(APN type hipri). Also APN type of mms is for multiple media texting, Good luck.
APN config?
You wouldn't happen to know the APN configuration for metro do you? or how I can find it?
