Can anyone in a 4G LTE area post a screenshot of the icon? I've read the description of the icons, but I'm still not sure what I'm looking at.
Here ya go http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23162659 ;-)
Thanks. And I searched too.

Hi guys, I am looking into getting an upgrade soon from my Droid eris and was wondering if the thunderbolt will work in areas only with 3G coverage and not 4G coverage as it is not available in my area. Thanks.

You have nothing to fear about getting the Tbolt because it'll work just fine. Verizon doesn't have 4G where I live at (Greensboro, NC) currently but I'm getting it (preordered it at Best Buy) because I like having a signal (switching to Verizon) and the city that I live in will be the next batch of cities that they fallout 4G LTE to.

Yes, the thunderbolt will work in 3g or 4g coverage....
The only thing that wont work is the advertised voice and data at the same time as you need 4G (i think voice uses 3G and data 4G or some silly techy thing like that).

According the page at the link above and many other pages, Verizon is enabling simultaneous voice and data over CMDA.

Not that I'm an expert, but Verizon only can enable it under 4G coverage areas. They can do it, I assume, because they stream data over 4G and voice over 1x/3G or something in that nature. I'd post my link references, but I'm too lazy to look for them. However, I think the Wirefly unboxing guy mentioned that too.
Haven't been in a 4G area yet, so I have no idea if this works. In widgetsoid, there's an option for 4G toggle (says it's experimental). Anyhow, curious if this toggle works at all on our TB's.
Thanks!

4g option is greyed out and unavailable when you try to use it, description says for evo 4g (sprint wimax).

Ah, yes, I see it's not selectable. My bad.....
Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think there is yet a widget that will toggle LTE on and off with one click. I'm not asking for one, I'm curious about what makes this difficult to do. I'm sure if it were a simple thing someone would have done it already.
There is one already. Don't know where it's at.

That definitely isnt a toggle widget, its just a shortcut to the phone info.

Ack. You're certainly right. My apologies. But I suppose that app would be better than nothing at all!

+1 but nerozehl thanks anyway
I don't know what u guys r talk n bout it absolutely is a toggle u can choose to: turn off radio completely or set to auto or 3g only or 3g/4g or 4g only or even 1x. It's pretty great. Much more than JUST info.

You are missing the keyword, WIDGET, as you can place it on your homescreen and toggle it without going into the settings.
Like I said, its def. not a widget. Crap, that would be more convenient. I'll try to pay more attn.

There is one included on power widget add-on 4 virusROM but its only 4g on-off not 3g/4g n I couldn't get it to turn back on but must be a way. Definately turned off tho. Or do u mean for 3g/4g?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I meant one that will toggle between 4G and 3G, I haven't seen a widget that will do a one touch switch between 4G and 3G.
I was wondering this too. Is there some limitation to it? Did htc not include an api to switch 4G on and off? I believe there's WIMAX 4G widgets and tasker can turn WIMAX 4G on and off, what's different about LTE? The fact that WIMAX is a wifi standard while LTE is is GSM and verizon 3G is cdma?

No they did not because there is no reason to.
Sprint uses 4G more like a hotspot. You enable it, it searches for a 4G signal then connects you to one. If it doesn't find one it gets re disabled.
On our phones, the phone is constantly searching for a 4G signal so when you go to a 3G zone from 4G it automatically switches. I understand you guys are probably worried about battery life which does take a hit from using this in that case you are kind of SOL until someone finds something.
Set your phone to CDMA Auto (PRL) seems to use less battery, and connects to LTE when available with no issues. Found that tip here in one of the forum posts. I'm rooted, but still running stock. Waiting for Inherits from Chingy.

Gingeritis. Autocorrect fail.

I'm working on a widget for it. I found the file/java class it calls to you when switch between lte/auto (inside settings.apk after you decompile it). Just need to code a simple widget interface button for it and toggle between LTE and EVDO. I have finals this week, but at worse, I'll have time this weekend.
I've never made a widget before, but it gives me a chance to learn by making one that's useful. Learn by experience is the best kind of learning imho

I have been looking at blur-res.apk, moto-res.apk and framework-res.apk, I can't seem to find where the HSPA+ icon is to be replaced with 4G icon
All i want to do is make it look like 4G to make my self feel better. anyone has any idea which other files I can look at to get that icon changed?
It's in systemui.apk
You have no idea how many hours I been looking for that!! thanks dude!
Haha, no problem brother.
Make it 5G while you're at it. Just for the lulz
Haha, but there where no premade icons for it, 4G icons were actually in the apk itself, I just replaced them over the 3g ones respectively, works flawless!
I guess I own you guys a result confirmation

Not really. Rest of us know we are not really on 4G, and don't feel the need to epeen!

Hey how did you replace the icon to 4g
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
I didnt see anything regarding this and i have been searching and searching how to get this done. Some might say turning 4g off on this phone ruins it. Personally I only use 4G when i need it. Otherwise i want to be on 3G to save battery and data usage.
Download:
"Phone info"
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=myc.phone.PhoneInfo
Once app is installed, open app.
-Select device info
-For select cdma auto (PRL)
-For 4g select LTE/cdma/EvDo
(Doing this from phone so please let me know if link doesnt work)
I know that juice defender app does that.

I searched and i asked a couple times in the forum with no answers or guidance to answers. So if the other options work for you then by all means go for it. This app is very much like the lte onoff i was using on my tbolt so im familiar with the process. Easy and simply IMO. Hope it helps anyone else that may have been looking for this option.

togle between 3g 4g in i530?
in the whole XDA network there is nobody knowing anything about a simple an efficient way to title between 3g 4g IN i530? The way discribed on first post kind of leashes...
I never saw 4G option in the international version of galaxy s3!!!!!!!
btw it doesn't support 4G/LTE as far as I remember.
@OP are you sure your in the right section??
Your signature shows ' SCH-I535' which is the verizon s3.

You can't toggle between 2g/3g/4g on any of the U.S. versions as far as I know.
