Not the Verizon version (SM-N910V) does not have band 7 LTE, but there are other versions of the phone that do include LTE band 7.

Will Verizon Note 4 be able to use AT&T LTE?

I have been able to have an iPhone 6 from Verizon work on my AT&T sim and have LTE. Has anyone been able to have a Verizon Note 4 work on AT&T and have LTE work?

Yes it will. All verizon LTE devices must be unlocked and if they state they are GSM Global ready, it means that they will generally work on other GSM carriers in the US. In this case, the Note 4 is GSM Global ready and will work on AT&T and T-mobile.
Yes, the Note 4 as well as all VZW 4G LTE phones from the past couple of years will work on ATT and TMO but will not necessary receive LTE depending on the area and LTE coverage you are in.
my 2 cents.
Thank you for the responses.
Would anyone be able to tell me what LTE Bands the Verizon version supports?

The Verizon version works on LTE band 4 for T-Mobile and AT&T. Depends on the area you are in if AT&T or T-Mobile uses this band.
Here's the Bands data from the different versions of note 4:
Verizon
GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 850/1900
WCDMA/HSPA: 850/1900
CDMA/EvDO: 850/1900
LTE Bands: 13,4
AT&T
GPRS/EDGE: 850/1900
WCDMA/HSPA: 850/1900
LTE Bands: 12,5,4,2
T-Mobile
GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 850/1900
WCDMA/HSPA: 850/1700/1900
LTE Bands: 12,17,5,4,2
Sprint
GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 850/1900
WCDMA/HSPA: 850/1900
CDMA/EvDO: 850/1900
LTE Bands: 26,25,41

T-Mobile bands...

I'm VERY concerned about buying this phone now. T-Mobile have only listed LTE bands 4 & 17 on their site.
International
Quad Band GSM; LTE: 4, 17; UMTS: Band I (2100), Band II (1900), Band IV (1700/2100), Band V (850)
What in the eff?
Des just answererd this question on Twitter: https://twitter.com/askdes/status/581568102015569920
It has:
GSM - 850/900/1800/1900
UMTS - B1/B2/B4/B5
LTE - B2/B4/B12/B17 with CA + B3/B7 roaming
This is the perfect T-Mobile phone.
So the T-Mobile version does not have 1700, and is therefore identical to the other models? Do we know if it includes wifi-calling, or if we would be able to flash the T-Mobile ROM onto the unlocked dev version?

But doesn't the AT&T, Unlocked, or Dev model include all of those bands and then some?

It does have 1700! That's Band 4, and for both LTE and HSPA.
The T-Mobile version also supports WiFi calling and texting. I have no idea if the T-Mobile firmware can be flashed to the unlocked version, but I don't see why it wouldn't be feasible.

T-Mobile (Des) confirmed: 2, 3, 4, 7, 12, and 17
AT&T lists: 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 17, and 29 (adds +5 and +29)
HTC Dev & Unlocked versions (per HTC on Twitter): 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 12, 13, 17, 29, 30 (adds +5, +13, +29, +30)
Maybe the T-Mo phone supports more that could be unlocked, who knows. The extra bands aren't useful to me.
Sorry, but I just want to clarify.
Do all versions of this phone support BAND IV UMTS or not?

HTC has done this on the past couple of phones. Only the T-Mobile phone will do their specific bands (HSPA+). On past models I don't recall anyone getting the ATT/DEV models to work with those T-Mobile bands. I don't believe we ever found out why. Some speculated it was due to cost to license all the bands, or that it is actually different hardware. The M7 and M8 were both like that.
If you are on T-Mobile, I'd get the model specifically for them.

Oh yeah I remember my Dev version being like that. Fortunately, I live in an area that has been upgraded to mostly lte. This was actually beneficial for me and maybe others in the same situation because it actually saves battery life when the phone isn't constantly switching between edge, 3g/+, and lte. I'm sure many others have been in an area that's barely out of lte but still within h+ range and it's still slow as edge or even slower.

Yes, it is OK if you live in a major area that has lots of LTE. Here just north of LA, I get into the other bands pretty frequently.
I am not sure this was answered? Do all versions of the HTC one m 9 support band 4 UMTS? Many ATT carrier unlocked models are for sale and no one seems to know if they will pick up the UMTS 1700 band 4 on T- Mo?

They will not pick up the T-Mobile specific bands, which use 1900/2100 for 41bps speed. They will work with the T-Mobile LTE band.
Wow, still a mystery. I have the AT&T SIM Unlocked One M9 and I have a TMobile prepaid SIM and get Edge, 3G, 4G, LTE Band 2,4,12...I cannot find an app that shows the actual WCDMA (4G) Bands ? But, it notates 42 MBPS when it says HSPA+ 4G using Network Signal Info-Pro App..and also shows 384 Kbps when it says 3G....
So, seems Des is correct unless the Network Signal Info Pro app is wrong?
I turned off everything except WCDMA, and this is what I get being reported by LTE Discovery. HSPA+ @ -113. I have a ATT unlocked M9. I do have the T-Mobile 2.11.531.19 firmware installed as well as the T-Mobile rom.

Thanks but as I mentioned I cannot find an App that shows the WCDMA Bands to confirm. As you can see even LTE Discovery says N/A for DL and UL Freq...when on WCDMA...
The only App I can see that helps is Network Signal Info Pro...and unfortunately it is limited and shows me the below in my market;
HSPA+ 42.2 MBPS
HSDPA 7.2 MBPS
UMTS 386 KBPS
But, does not indicate which Band or Frequency ?
Anyone know of an App or Command that will show WCDMA Bands???

[Q] M919 LTE band confirmation please

I have two M919 phones: The T-Mobile M919 and the MetroPCS M919N. They are the same phone with different branding I believe and have used both with the same flashing software, dialer codes, replacement hardware parts, etc.
I unlocked both phones as detailed in my thread in this forum.
What I need is: In the Band Selection Menu, What is default for LTE Band Preference?
I dialed *#2263# to access the menu. I have an asterisk next to Automatic in one phone and nothing in the other.
Under LTE Band Preference, I see 9) LTE ALL selected. What is the correct band to chose for T-Mobile LTE on either a T-Mobile or Metro branded Galaxy S4 M919?
Thanks much
Band 4

Thank you very much.
In my area T-Mobile just rolled out Band 12 (700 Mhz), but this band does not exist in my phone's configuration. How about yours?

Sprint Note 4 LTE Bands

Hey guys,
I am in Malaysia and my phone operator uses 4G LTE on Band B7 2600. I can't find the proper list of bands for the Sprint version, can someone please clarify if I can use LTE or not?
Regards,
Zeekay.
Here you go: From the samsung web site:
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SM-N910PZKESPR-specs
According to Samsung they do not support 2600 with this phone.
LTE: Band 25/26/41
800/1900 MHz (CDMA),
800/1900/2500 MHz (LTE),
850/900/1800/1900 MHz (GSM),
850/900/1900/2100 MHz (UMTS)
I don't know if there are hardware limitations that would prevent loading different firmware to enable band 7

People like me with unlocked sprint note 4's have been trying forever to unlock additional lte bands. But so far not possible! I have once found my phone on lte band 5, but don't know how it happened.
By default this phone only supports 25,26,41. Pic below.
I have found a hidden menu of lte bands but none work! Pic below.
Edit: @poit i didn't even see your post. Sorry, didn't mean to double answer!

Question Force enable carrier aggregation outside us.

Hi everyone. Im wondering if this is possible for pixel 6 pro. Basically my unit is direct from us store which is G8VOU. Now im using it in Malaysia and 4g lte works fine.
Now im wondering if carrier aggregation is possible through root. Right now from what see through netmonster it can do 2ca on the same band(check screenshot). I think its aggregating two towers with the same band, i may be wrong though.
Anyone had any idea how to force enable multi band ca? The local sold phone can go up to 5ca which are mainly band 1, 3, 7 ,8. Thanks in advance.
I would also like to know
Is it not 4G+ an indication of currently using carrier aggregation?
Try to download NPerf app and click on speed test button. It will detect your carrier and mention it's currently on 4G+ or LTE-A
Another proof is below when you check in *#*#4636#*#* . Currently my Yoodo is on band 7 and band 3.
And Digi Malaysia only have 1 band which is Band 7
Digi - Malaysia - Wireless Frequency Bands and Device Compatibility
Digi (Malaysia) uses 2 GSM bands, 1 UMTS band, and 1 LTE band. Find out if your unlocked phone or mobile device will work with Digi (Malaysia)

Yes like is said. Mine is at 2ca indicated that im at TWO bands aggregated. Which is way below whats possible. Let me know if you have something that can help instead of just pointing out facts i already stated in the first post. Thanks.

I sometimes have band 3 and 8 as well. Just never 3 or 4ca at a time. Only up to 2ca max.
The modem decides aggregation.
