Hello all. Is it possible to get my Note to stay on T-Mobile's HSPA+ only (which I assume is the "E" symbol that shows up on the Note when not on 4G)? Where I am the 4G signal and speed is too inconsistent for me. But on the flipside the "E" signal on the ICS KID modem is faster than using the stock AT&T modem.
flash the tmobile radio

will the Tmo_SGH-T989_VKL1_radio_ATTNOTE work on the LG Thrill 4g from at&t unlock to tmobile now

Flashing the TMobile Blaze Modem has given me a signal on my AT&T Galaxy Note, full bars. However, it is flipping between UMTS and HSPA, and HSPA+ continually. I've searched for info on this with no results. I'd like to go with the cheaper Tmobile $30 prepaid plan for my phone, but need to find out if there is an established fix for this so that my signals will be as strong as a Tmobile Note.
Is this any fix for this?Any tips appreciated.
Could I flash a t-mobile radio to get my GSM/UMTS radio to operate on ALL of T-Mobiles HSPA frequencies? cause edge sucks and I know for a fact there's HSPA in my area cause my friend with the Galaxy note 2 T-mobile has HSPA.
i have bobzhome's metropcs version of cm 10.2 which is also for the t-mobile varriant and i cant get 4g to work i have the correct apn settings and it flashes E in the signal bar for data i dont want edge.
please someone tell me how to enable and get my 4g working back correctly.

4g wont work on l9, on this phone you can use 3g(internet) segnal or 2g(sms and calls)
to use 4g you must have a phone that support this tecnology(HARDWARE)

Please make sure that after unlock boot loader you flash your original kdz back by offline method. I think it a incorrect baseband problem.

Yea my t-mobile L9 (P769) uses 4g as well, however I do not believe they are LTE capable (correct me if im wrong). Many people think 4g and lte are the same.However they are not.
my phone is lte capable. 4g LTE

That is not true. Not a single LG optimus L9 variant regardless of model or network supports LTE. However they are capable of running 4g just not 4g LTE. The 4g runs off HSPA+ not LTE. Even the LG optimus L9 II uses HSPA+ for the 4g network.
T-Mobile USA seems to define 4g their way. Something like gsm, umts, hspa & cdma, that makes four.

Thats all the radio bands the device can pick up. 4g acctually runs off the hspa. If you change your prefered network to gsm/cdma or umts only or auto it will not connect to 4 g. In order to connect to 4 g you must select hspa+ auto or wcdma+ auto. I couldnt connect to 4g when i first got my phone and its because the prefered network was set to gsm/cdma (auto). I get the best speed on wcdma+(auto). That will make it connect to the fastest radio band available. My phones a t-mobile but I unlocked it and switched to at&t because tmobiles data speed was horrible. I would average .20 mbps - 2.25 mbps (bits not bytes) with tmobiles 4g. On at&t I get 12mbps to 25 mbps and have even got as high as 40mbps right in town. Thats just in my area however, im sure tmobile has good speed in certain areas. After switching to at&t it made me miss my lg p870 I gave my girl because its LTE and she gets anywhere from 20-50mbps!?
I have a samsung galaxy note i717 i am using on tmobile. My area has half the towers refarmed to 1900mhz and running lte on the AWS band, the others are still on aws hspa+. I can either use a modem that uses LTE and get better speeds or flash a AWS modem and get alot more coverage with hspa+
I am running (i believe) tmobile stock rom with att stock modem. I get LTE.
My question is.. Is there a modem out their that will give me the best of both worlds (Lte and AWS hspa+)?
It sucks going into boonyville with 2g.
Hi there, i was able to get one of these from a local walmart for about $150 bucks, its a Verizon Prepaid samsung Galaxy S4 i545PP i545ppvruaoh7 is the build, and it comes with lolipop.
the reason why i bought is is because according to http://willmyphonework.net/
this phone was supposed to support 4G LTE Band4-AWS , but it does not!
it sure comes unlocked, i can put any sim card and i get signal, i get 2g, 3g, H, H+
I tried different sim cards and the best it can do is H+ on all of them.
I tried changing it to global, and also changing it to LTE GSM etc on the android menu but i have no luck.
Is there any way to enable the 4G on this phone? I live in a contry where all carriers use the same 3G and 4G that At&T uses. So here all At&T phones got 2g, 3g,and 4g out of the box. And i thought this verizon phone supported 4G Band4.

Are you sure ATT uses band 4 (AWS - 1700/2100) in your area? ATT uses a number of different LTE bands in different areas, and the Verizon S4 (prepaid or not) only supports band 4.
im sure my carrier uses same band as At&T, 100% positive that my carrier uses Band 4.
reason is because i also bought two other phones, a moto E At&T gophone and i unlocked it and i got 4G icon at first boot with the carrier here.
but verizon galaxy S4 prepaid is different, i can´t get more than H+, i have never seen the 4G icon
and i dont think there is a hack for it to enable all bands
