Hi
So I have a T-mobile unlocked SM-N900T that I'm currently using in London. I'm on Lycamobile and want to try their 4G network but for some reason my phone just will not connect to LTE. 3G works fine but that's as far as it will go.
I've been able to use 4G in India on the same phone so I know it does work, but for some reason it just wont connect here. I've tried the *#2263# service menu and selecting LTE -> ALL just gives me the no signal / network icon.
Have tried resetting, pulling out the battery and SIM but nothing seems to work.
Has anyone had these issues or any suggestions?
Oh - phone is Unrooted and running the latest KK update.
Any help or advice is graciously accepted. Cheers!
They just might be using a band for LTE that the phone doesn't have/support.

Thanks, shouldn't this phone be able to handle the various bands though?

It handles a bunch of them, but not all. I'd look up the band their service uses for 4G, and see if it's compatible with your phone.

Cheers sir. I'm on the phone with them now and they don't seem to know! What are the usual bands that would normally be used in London though?

Find a phone that they sell and look up spec's and compare.

Thanks Andrew. I'll give that a go. They've called me a few times but keep reading from the same script. Was promised a call back on Sunday, but nothing and its Tuesday already!
They don't offer contracts as they are only PAYG but let me look up specs for O2, as they piggyback their network.

Ok. ..so it would seem that the tmobile phones operate on different lte bands. So I've attempted to flash an international rom on this phone and as the Eagle eyed will note, this was done successfully. I should therefore have an international modem etc now? But I still can't connect to 4G! So does this mean that this is a device (actual hardware) issue or can this be sorted by flashing a modem that allows me to connect to all bands?

Can anyone please advise if flashing a new modem will sort this out for me? I've already tried Knox so may as well give it a try. Suggestions and expert advice please?

I am posting here because it seams no one knows why some phones have LTE only options and some do not.
I was wondering if someone can develop this feature somehow if the user is rooted and has there MSL code that doesn't have the LTE only option by Default.
Is this possible via development and if not why?

The only problem with going to LTE only is, on Sprint, LTE only supports data service. So if you went to LTE only you would lose voice service.
I want to lose my voice services. I just want to use my phone as a Data access point.
So do you know if someone can develop this feature?

ah ok, wasnt really clear in your explanation. any of the custom roms i have used i don't ever remember seeing lte only. sorry man wish i could help a little better.
It's possible to have LTE only, yet not many people can develop radios that shut out normal service. Good idea
Though!

Ya what if some one developed a ROM feature to where you can at least disable 3G so the phone could only connect to LTE. This could bypass the possible hardware limitations.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Premium App
Probably won't work but use efrants return to stock guide and instead of flashing both radios try flashing the LTE radio only and see what that gets you
Bloods thicker than water
I wonder why this is not more popular and why more people are not working on this possibility.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Premium App
Search in the Play Store for "Network" by Philipp Mangelow. It is actually a shortcut to the phone's built in diagnostics mode. It doesn't work for stock or ROMs with stock kernels, but I have used it to put the phone into LTE-only mode for testing. You will see both GSM and CDMA settings, regardless of which one your phone is. Try them all, sometimes the setting is mislabeled (its a bug with the ROM, not the app).
So in short, even if your ROM doesn't support LTE-only, you have a good chance of this feature with this app.

Okay there was nine options under preferred network tab and all of them did not force LTE. I do not know if I have to reboot or not but if you know anything else that would be great or have any other ideas.
Also there was something about ims registration but I do not know anything about that.

The LTE option only appears on certain ROMs. I forgot which ones, and I can't check right now because I flashed back to stock so I can take my phone to Sprint for repairs (overheating). Try Eclipse, Maddoggin, Carbon, Rasbean, or Jellybro. One of those will have an LTE option I'm sure. What I do is set the LTE option, then below I turn off the radio, and then turn it back on. Oh and sometimes the 4G icon doesn't appear, depending on the ROM, but if you do a speedtest you'll obviously see you're connected to LTE.
Okay I have tried all of them by turning off the radio and turning them back on. Also did not pay attention to names. It still did not work so I guess I will have to try one of those Roms.
Do you know if I can install one of those ROMs with the sprint nexus toolkit? And which ROM would you suggests first.
Also im afraid it might be a hardware issue do you think that is possible? Maybe I got one of the first Sprint 4G LTE Nexuses that you can't split the LTE signal.

no he didnt need to. that is why i reported them.
It takes about the same time to answer a question than to b*tch about it...
ANSWER: Download and flash Eclipse 2.1 ROM (Android 4.1.2) :good:
It has the LTE ONLY option you want. It also has a fantastic array of options and tweaks, and 2-4 times the battery life of a 4.2 ROM or Stock OTA. :highfive:
If the LTE ONLY option doesn't work on the the first try, use the Network app posted above to turn off the radio and back on again. :victory:
It seems like pages would load faster if the radio was forced to stay on HSPA+ rather than going back to umts then waiting that second for it to jump back on HSPA. Anyone ever heard of a mod that makes the radio stay on HSPA network?
There's definitely a difference between the both in terms of speed. I came from Verizon and there LTE network was good but not great. I get better speeds at home on t-mobile but better at work on Verizon. There network was good at going through walls. The big difference is there LTE radio is always on forcing fast speeds out the gate. It's always on. If there was a mod to just force the radio to stay on HSPA there wouldn't be much of a difference between the both when it comes to user experience. It's not a big deal but was curious if anyone ever heard of such a thing.
Please exclude the I9505 build prop as I'm enjoying one of the international builds at this time. Again my data is good but forcing this HSPA network to stay on would definitely improve user experience. Maybe one day I will have the skills to create such a mod
Wishful thinking. Thanks community and please don't flame this thread. I'm in Q&A and it's just a thought

Yes if you look in the mobile network in settings you can change the gs4 to the second mobile network setting which is without LTE. with that setting checked it only uses HSPA. Enjoy. I use it when LTE is acting funny

If you're on a Samsung phone, type *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer. Open Phone information. There'll be a drop down list saying 'Set preferred network type'. You can force LTE only or WCDMA only etc there. There are other options too, depending upon the phone.
Hey guys i got a great offer for this beautiful Phone however i don'twasn't to leave T-Mobile, if I do this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7gMO_kRxyM&feature=youtube_gdata_playermod and then i root it will I lose the settings after? Like when flashing a new ROM would i loser this again?
Follow this guide. Works perfectly. I used my i-317 on T-Mobile for a while before I traded it and got great 4G speeds.

No. The T-Mobile version, T-889, is a dual cell phone capable of supporting 42.2 Mbps data transfer. The AT&T version, i-317, is not and is limited to 21.1 Mbps. However the i-317 is capable of using more than one LTE band whereas the T-889 is limited to just one.

No, you can flash other carriers roms. The thing is you have to make damn sure what you're flashing isn't gonna brick you. From a software standpoint all Note 2's are the same, for the most part. You have to be careful not to flash another carriers modem or you'll have no signal. If that happens just flash an AT&T modem and you're good. The kernel is pretty much the same. There might be some minor differences but nothing to worry about. Just read read read. All the info is in the OP, and if it's not just ask in that thread.

This is just strange... in roughly a year of doing this I think you're the first to report that happening. 4.0.4 and 4.1.1 modems have always worked on 4.1.2, and any other combo has worked as well. There are people who still use the LH2 (ics) modem because it still performs better than any other for them.
I think you may have been seeing it function normally though. When idle, its supposed to drop to UMTS to save power and bandwidth. If you check while a transfer is occurring you will see it change to HSPAP.

Has anyone else found another modem that they now use that gives them better signal/data speeds for their Tmobile T999? My work building is a complete dead zone for Tmobile, so I am hoping flashing another modem works. Otherwise, im not sure what else I can do.
I have to refer you to my initial response here. A modem that gives better speed and signal for me, might be one of the worst for you.
Just something to consider, you probably could test 2-3 different ones each day at work. Maybe more. If your main issue is signal, then flash, check service, if none then flash another right away. I could probably flash 5 different ones on a 15 min break if I was only looking for improved signal. Might be a better way than waiting for someone to tell you what worked for them, then testing only that the next day. Its your phone and your time though, so its your call. Just tryin to help

So I'm currently on PRL 51100 and saw from the sprint PRL thread that that one is associated with iPhones and that the 21100 is the one for triband phones so I'm wondering are there others that are on 51100 as well?
I tend to miss many calls when I'm at home and wondering if switching PRLs would help.
Anyone else having similar issues or running a different PRL with better results?

I'm running the same PRL. The wording wasn't too clear about 21100... I'm not sure if I should change PRL to something else, is this also a world LTE phone too and should use that one?
OK, I've done it here, and I'm in a Spark area. No LTE at home, but that is as was before, I'll see if I get better LTE reception at work with the 21100 PRL.

I should note that anything you do to your phone is at your own risk, and if you break your phone doing this, you are guaranteed to own both pieces.
Oh, I'm rooted, BTW, running KitKat LG G2 stock with custom recovery.

well so far this has been a bust for me. I have a mac so I can't get the tool to work on my computer. I installed parallels to run windows as a virtual machine but can't get it to recognize my phone after installing the drivers.
interested to see your experience with the 21100 PRL though so let me know. Maybe I can find a friends windows PC to use at some point.
