Hi friends who ever bought the t-mobile galaxy note can u try this option to check whether u can change the settings for data connection .I have a galaxy s3 where I used to this option to switch off lte to conserve battery .it worked fine.if this process works and u get the options to change connection type then you are good to buy t-mobile galaxy note 2 to use lte on at&t because I heard both t-mobile and at&t note versions has same chip inside but lte is temporarily disabled in t-mobile version .
1) With phone on, take off back cover and press your SIM card so it releases from the spring. It won't come all the way out as it's blocked by the battery. This seems fine - I didn't bother trying to force it out as I didn't want to break anything...
2) Once you see the message that the SIM card is removed, go to the dialer and dial *#2263#
3) You should see a menu with band selections. The current setting is "Automatic". If you switch to "GSM All", you will be EDGE (2G). If you switch to "WCDMA All", you will be on HSPA+ (3G, though AT&T and others call it 4G) and you will have lte too
4) Press the SIM card back into place until it clicks. For whatever reason the phone will not recognize it until you reboot. Upon reboot you should see your new setting in effect.

Great, let me do this now so I'll ready when Tmobile turns on LTE in 2 years

Fwiw I believe you can do this without rebooting.
At least when switching the gsm radio bands. I often check 1900 mhz in my area of nyc by doing #*2263#
I have done this for Lte and it just says no service. Perhaps I should get at&t to show up but this far it hasn't worked.
I'm interested in what other people know about this!
If I click the SIM it doesn't come out enough (hits the battery) to tell me SIM removed . No dice on that approach for me.

You can select bands from any Samsung Galaxy device (that I've tried) by entering this code into the dialer. *#*#197328640#*#*
A menu pops up which give you lots of options. To get to band options, choose Debug Screen, Phone Control, Network Control, Band Selection. Don't get excited, every device I've seen has an LTE option in there, but that doesn't mean your phone has LTE hardware.
Another for the SIM not coming out far enough. Also, with the *#197328640#, the 'Debug Screen' was under UMTS.
My GN2 is carrier unlocked and I have the SIM from my AT&T iPhone4 in it. I'm not sure that SIM would even be LTE compatible anyhow since all I had with the iPhone4 was 3G.

i try but get no signal guess we have to wait
any update if its working on att
i dont think it ever will lol
If the battery blocks the SIM, can't you just take the SIM out, boot up the phone with no SIM, and do the same thing?
If this T-Mobile version physically HAS the LTE radio that AT&T uses, does anyone know what it would take to get it working on AT&T's LTE?

If you mean being able to use internet during a call, it depends on your carrier and the wireless technology they use.
If your carrier uses cdma technology (e.g. Verizon), then you cant, as cdma does not support voice and packet service simultaneously.
If wcdma is used, then you can used both voice and packet service at the same time.

That's weird, because I'm on Verizon and have used Chrome several times during a phone call.

Is that you mean this is the network operator problem, not Note 2 (phone) problem?
But I tried to use the same network operator (in my country called DIGI, my current phone line) with IPhone, it work fine!!
But, when I put the same SIM card into Note 2, it does not 'always' work!! I mean sometime it work, most of the time it does not work!!

Hmm i got a galaxy s 1 and soon note 2 .
Now on my galaxy s it works when i already whs browsing the web
So if i use the internet and get call i can still browse but if im not using the internet and get a call it 70% of the times goes off until the end of the call.
Check to see if thats the case in ur note 2, use the internet and call from home or ask a buddy to call u .

Your area may have bad 3g connection (3g,H,H+) and signal will drop to only GSM (GPRS/EDGE). In GSM mode you cannot make calls and use data connection at the same time.
Try changing your network connection to only WCDMA and retest.

guys,
Whats is the differente between i9082 and i9082l?
I can flash android 4.2.2 in i9092l?
Thanks!
One is dual sim one is single sim. That's all I think. For custom roms based on stock Rom, I don't think they will work on i9082l due to different framework as the i9082 has dual sim function. Better ask the Dev before flashing any of the roms.

Wrong, SIM 2 can also can use 3G, just cannot use 3G for both SIM cards at the same time.

I guess then you are lucky, for I have 2 Data SIM cards, same operator, and when I switch to SIM 2 for data, only runs on EDGE. Then I searched the Technical Specifications of the device, and its reads exactly as what I posted. Hence, I copy pasted it from GSM Arena.
Perhaps some will, but atleast Mine.....doesnt.

Wrong again. You can't use 3G in SIM2 simply because SIM1 is the dominant SIM in 3G. To change that, just go to System Settings > More Settings > Mobile Network and in SIM1 tab check "Use only 2G Networks" box. A popup will show up "Current SIM card will be changed to 2G. Change other SIM card to 3G?" Choose OK and that's it.
i agree with henrispc013,
i can also use 3g/WCDMA with both sims, but not at the same time

Did you got airte Sim pre installed in the phone or it old sim.
Can be a problem with Android one because they are giving free download for Six months. May be they dont want to give 3G speed.
In any case you should ask the airtel guys, you should also tru to consult Micromax customer support or Service center.
How many sims are you using?
Is ur 3g sim in sim 1 slot?
Is that sim bound to 3g connection?

You can try using an app like LTE Discovery but normally manually switching the band your phone is connected to requires that your phone be rooted and I'm not sure it's possible on newer versions of Android even if you do have root access.
Resetting your network connection or putting your phone in airplane mode for 5 minutes then turning airplane mode off might result in a better network connection since it will be refreshed.
However, phones are usually programmed to default to the strongest network signal rather than the fastest so you might end up back on the same band even though you are unhappy with the speed.

Open the Phone dialer and enter ##3282# (##DATA#)
Then click Edit
Then enter the MSL which is 000000 (6 zeros)
Then click LTE
Then click Band Priority
Select the band giving you problems and move it to the bottom of the list.( By assigning it the bottom priority number which in my case is 18.)
I added screenshots with the options circled

They're primarily LTE now like everyone else. HDVoice (VOLTE), and RCS via Android Messages app. They're moving to all 4G and eventually 5G whenever there network owner King Street Wireless starts building it.
Switched to Sprint for the faster speeds otherwise they do work good in the middle of nowhere.

Yes the code ##3282# definitely only works on Sprint firmware which is a clusterf*ck of CDMA/WiMax/LTE mess. lol
It's one of the last carriers in the US (and MetroPCS) where you have to call them every time you want to move your sim card to another phone, because they have to "update" your MEID/IMEI in their network.
Oh, and that LTE priority band settings only applies to Sprint sim cards, as soon as you change it to another carrier, those settings are not being utilized at all.
