[Q] ATT Note on H2O wireless - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

I am running my note on h2o and have successfully been running on 3g and 4g(hspa+) but I have been searching through google and even asked an h2o cs rep about the note gaining access to att lte service but i have gotten no luck on finding an answer. So i thought i might as well ask here. Do any of you know if ATT will allow mvnos to access their lte network?

Hey just seen your post today while I was searching for the same answer...go here...this is working for me on my galaxy s 3

ok so the H that comes up on my phone is just a figure of imagination.

The H is just for regular HSPA and HSPA+ not LTE

Speedtest

Anyone run one? Just found from my iPhone with Voda sim I get 2mbps, similar in the S3....My T-Mobile sim in the S3 on H+ is doing 224kbps
Guess which network I just signed up to so I could get the S3
Switch to Orange to see if you get better speeds.

Thanks FF, useful tip, it was actually showing TMobile Orange in the network when you pull down the notification bar. I changed that to just TMobile via a network search, ran another test and got 3835kbps, which is more like I'd expect.
Cheers again for the tip.

Only one problem, you're on Three
Yup sorted it on mine - I had to upload (and also deleted the account out of sync and logged back in) but you have to do 6 things - sync with PC, friend sync, etc etc before you get you extra 48gb

Any of you had the SGSII before the III and using the same carrier & location? I want to know has the speeds increased any or close to the same?

I cannot see it being much faster. They both have HSPA+ i believe.
Compared to my Desire HD however, WOW!

I has T-Mobile 3G/4G in att note with UCLF6 radio!!!!!

So I was coming home from work, and I glanced at my phone , and here's what I saw. Did a speed Test and here's the results. Its the second time I've seen this. I guess tmo is finally deploying 1700mhz 3g at my area. I'm in st Louis BTW.

From a hardware standpoint both RANs are almost exact. Ive shown up to tmob sites and opened ATT cabinets on accident. The outdoor equipment is that similar. (same rbs, radios, filters, etc. )
I heard tmob/att had opened their networks to help with the states where they lost up to 30% of the sites from the hurricane. Maybe that has something to do with it.

Hello, I would just like to report to all Kansas City users that T-Mobile has switched their 4G network to the 1700mhz band and i am running CM10 nightly with the UCLF6 radio and my signal is great and have 4G. The problem with CM10 is that is always has jumped from 3G to H+ no matter what radio you are on but at least the connection is stable and i am getting speeds in the high 5Mbps!

I think you meant 1900mhz.
I see this in San Francisco bay area too. It works here and there but overall still the same old edge

Does the latest firmware solve signal problems? (either gt-9200/9205)

First off, I'm in the USA, but interested in the international version of the Mega 6.3 (mainly due to no locked bootloader and generally faster updates than carrier models in the US). I'm currently using T-mobile prepaid so I know both versions won't get me hspa (unless I'm in a refarmed area, which I am) or LTE.
I noticed a couple of threads that talk about signal problems on cell connectivity for the Galaxy Mega 6.3 international version. I can get a good price (not sure if its the gt-i9200 or gt-i9205 version) on the Mega 6.3 from a local store, but does the latest firmware (or one of the newer firmwares at least) fix any signal issues? Or is it just random with some people getting bad phones that still have signal problems even after loading newer firmware. I'll most likely ask for the gt-i9200 since the lte bands on the 9205 are worthless for me.
I could always ask the store how much they get the MetroPCS version for since that'll work out of the box with T-mobile service.
T-Mobile just sucks ...I have a i9205 here in north Carolina and have no problems what so ever running straight talk .. I pull way better service with them then when I ran tmo... I'm done with T-Mobile... No signal issues at all

Well good to know on your i9205 using Straight Talk on AT&T towers you have no problems. Judging from your harsh words, did you previously use T-mobile on your Galaxy Mega 6.3 and ran into signal issues? Do you live in one of their refarmed areas?
Which firmware revision are you running? Thanks! =)
Yeah T-Mobile sucks in my region.

Thanks!!
A local shop near my home can't get any i9200, but can get the i9205. So, I requested that even though the LTE bands are useless here in the US (I'll just disable the LTE portion of the radio anyways). It should be fun to use the phone once I get it.

Verizon phone on tmobile

Can anyone tell me what settings I need to change to use a t-mobile Sim with my Verizon v10?
you need to change the APN. its a bit of a pain but it does work. At least it did on my old S4

BeameD From My LG V10... The one with the ALWAYS ON SCREEN... Watching me.. ?
Thank you chiikko561, that helped.
I set up the APN. I was only getting Tmobile's Edge network. If I changed the network mode to LTE/CDMA if forces it to LTE but I cannot make calls or txt. I am trying to find an option for my Verizon unlimited data plan. I cannot get anything but satellite for internet where I live. This phone would become our home internet hotspot. I don't really need talk/txt on this phone so I guess LTE would work for me, just want to solve it. Any suggestions appreciated.

Do did changing the apn work for you do make calls and use LTE? Or are you still only able to do one and not the other without changing the network mode?
Did you turn volte off?

VoLTE is not dependent upon band 12. I have TMO and am on band 4 with VoLTE...
It's strange but I think Verizon is behind this issue because I can get LTE using the LTE/GSM/UMTS for about 30 seconds then it just drops from 4G LTE to H. When I turn off Mobile Data then turn it back on it will see T-mobile's 4G then drop again.
Am trying to do switch also my V10 from verizon to tmobile when I put my sim in it automatically switches to tmobile apn and does the same it shows 4g/let then goes to H any suggestions....
You may never get full function of the Verizon phone on T-Mobile.
Reason is Verizon runs on CDMA and T-Mobile runs on GSM.
And I don't think the V10 has the ability to be both.

3G and 4G with AT&T.

I'm in the USA. Got this phone, put my FreedomPop SIM in (a AT&T MVNO).
And pretty much everywhere in my city it stayed at 3G.
I ported my number to Red Pocket (another AT&T MNVO) because I was sick of FreedomPop's messaging app you're forced to use.
With the RP SIM, same thing, mostly 3G.
I know this phone doesn't support AT&T's main LTE band 12/17, but supports 2,4 and 5.
So, playing around with settings (*#*#4636#*#*) I changed Set Preferred Network Type to: LTE/UMTS auto and it changed from 3G 850MHz (Band 5) to 4G Band 2.
Will it fall back to 3G when it needs to with this setting?

OK, I changed my Preferred network type from 4G/3G/2G to 3G/2G and it automatically changed to 3G.
Changed back, and back on 4G.
Think I'll be OK.
Something to check for fellow US users that might have this issue.
I'm also in the U.S.and have freedompop but I get 4G. At least it says 4G in the status (not LTE). I don't know whether I'm actually getting 4G speed. Seems fast enough.
Good to know this trick, in any event
Thanks
