Hello people new here and im digging around with no exact answer so I decided to open a thread. I just rooted note today and I flashes CM9.1 by cyanogen (QuincyATT) version and I may be having data issues or not lol.
When I try and choose lTE/GSM under settings it doesn't let me; just defaults back to GSM automatically. Also I feel like data goes in and out or maybe its just me. Any suggestions? I'm in an LTE area...

Did you ask at&t to provision your sim for LTE? When I got my note I had to do that.

Yes. Will LTE work automatically? I'm assuming theres no icon for it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
It will automatically connect if available. The icon is 4g. If you see H then you're not on lte because it isn't available or possibly because of that setting.
This is mine by default. Honestly not sure if it makes a difference.

Damnit lol. I'm in an LTE area but mine just stays on h+. OK I'll try and figure out whats going on. By chance do you remember on the original rom what the LTE icon looked like?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
On the stock ROM, the icon was always 4G unless you were in an lte area....Then it was 4Glte.

I'm subscribing to this thread. I have the same thing. I'm in a lte area but changing the lte/gsm/wcdma won't stick. It always changes back. I'm still searching. That's how I found this thread. If I figure it out we'll both know.
Edit: I assume you tried this.

Do your apn settings say Cingular by any chance? These are my options. Obviously you want lte.

If op has the same thing I do. Its att lte pta. On network mode lte won't stick. I can pick it but as soon as I do it switches right back. I tried deleting the APN and making a new one but still no love.

Damn dude. Idk. That is strange. And At&t updated your sim when you bought the phone?
Gubment Cheeze
Yep new sim. Same on stock or paranoid android.
@op i've searched to no avail. Like I said I subscribed to this thread. If you find an answer your thanks meter would rise every day.
I still have the same issue as well with a new sim. Haven't resolved the issue yet just wont stick lol. I dont know what to do I love this CM9.1 so much I refuse to switch. Ive just been using h+ its about 7mb down but nothing compared to when I hit 27mb down on LTE.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Not sure if this will do anything, but have you tried clearing cache and dalvik in recovery and then seeing if setting will stick? If that doesnt work, try wiping again, but then dirty flash the ROM and gapps. Another option(and I'm not sure what this will do) is trying to clear data in settings apk and starting over with all your settings. That will wipe everything back to stock settings as if you just flashed. Good luck guys.

@op after trying numerous different suggestions from the community the only success I've had is to flash the GB modem of flapjaxx. I get stable lte but it leaves me with baseband unknown. It works though. Hope this helps and I'll keep trying.

Man I really don't want to switch to GB base lol, I'd rather be on touch wiz. After doing some research I'm starting to believe it may be the modem. My phone arrived with ice cream so I'm betting that has a lot to do with my issues. I'm going to change my modem for the first time to see if I can switch to LTE
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
Possibly a dumb question. But after you deleted your APN, and entered a new one, did you press menu and save?
Proper LTE APN for your carrier, with LTE sim card and LTE plan, you should get LTE running.
for CM9/AOSP/AOKP/CM10 type roms, LTE will show up as 4G.
Another way to test is to install a UCLF6 ROM. Get that up and running. Then go to the APN settings, and the LTE APN's should be loaded.
To confirm LTE is connected, make sure you are in an LTE area, and you can check in Status, or open up the phone dialer, and do *#2263*.
Then select LTE, and All types in LTE. If you are running in LTE there, you should be able to get it up and running with any CM ROM.
I switched to the touchwiz black star rom and I'm on LTE right now. Same modem I had on cm9.1. Its puzzling why it wouldn't turn on. Oh well ill stick with touch wiz thanks anyways guys!

Ok, so I've been using aokp jb for a while and love it. The best ROM I've ever used. I was looking in the settings and under settings/more/mobile networks, I noticed roaming was not checked.
1.Doesn't at&t have free roaming?
2. Are these settings checked by default in stock ROM?
3. Could this be the reason why sometimes data in the notification bar shows "3g" and have plenty bars but doesn't seem to be working?
I appreciate any help.
Btw great ROM, check it out if you haven't yet

I doubt roaming would ever be free. Don't think they were checked. If you had searched you would know 3g means no data in use. Keeping it at h+ would kill battery in 3 hours. This saves battery

Only way to cure slow uploads and download is
1. Must be on a tw rom
2. Go to service mode by using *#2263#
3. Go to wcdma per. and click on wcdma 850
4. Signal bar will be replaced with a circle with a line thru it.
5. While about 5-10 seconds. Your signal bars will return but you will have no 4g.
6. Hit settings button, go back and click on wcdma all and 4g will come back.
7. Do a speed test and profit.
8. Every time you reboot you must do this every time. Only takes about 30 seconds.
There is now another method to get fast speeds on aokp thanks to Curgervending.

Touchwiz is the skin placed on top of the android OS. HTC phones have sense, Motorola has Blur and Samsung has touchwiz. The name of the default Samsung launcher is touchwiz but obviously there's choice. With that said we're going away from the topic of the post.

Wow!!!! I am on ics-Padawan2 with the blaze modem. I can't believe the difference. My UP speeds more than doubled.
Poor up speeds were the only thing that sent me to Straight talk- tried it for a month and their up speeds on the att card (yes-flashed the correct att modem) was only .6-.7 mbps. Barely better than my best tmo up speeds. Download speeds on ST were 1.5 to 3 mbps- really poor compared to tmo. I was getting 7-10 mbps down on tmo Just came back to tmo and found this little gem!!!!
After this little simple adjustment my up speeds went from .2-.5 mbps (without this adjustment on t-mo) to .5-1 mbps with the adjustment! better or equal to ST with the att sim. Very cool!:highfive: My DL speeds after adjustment bumped up too consistently >12mbps. Really happy I came back to tmo now!!!!!
THANK YOU Rob!

I have an unlocked Samsung galaxy note i717 and was wondering does it support T-Mobile 3g because I never get 3g its always edge and sometimes 4g it sucks so if anyone knows or know a way I could get 3g to come on that would be great thanks alott
No one has tried that yet -- you're the first to ask! Now I'm wondering too.
My guess is you'd have to flash a t-mobile compatible radio. Maybe get the radio from the t-mobile Blaze 4G galaxy phone, because its the same modem chip as the note, is my guess. You'd probably have to input the APN settings, most likely they aren't included in our Rom.
Good luck and let us know if that works.

Yes, that's a good start. But my guess Is you have to install/flash a t-mobile compatible modem because the two networks use different bands for data.

Icsblaze. Modem

Start with the Blaze 4G galaxy phone modem over in the development section. Its a zip file so you need to have a custom recovery (CWR or TWRP). Don't forget the APN settings after you flash.
I think I tried that one before and I didn't get any service at all but I'll give it another try

Ok, you already get data on tmobile network but you don't like the inconsistent speed.
You can try different modems. But in the end, you may just be in a poorly covered region and will have to live with it.
I have a question about my 4G issue. The only time i can get 4G is when I select 4G only in the command settings, but then i don't have voice services. Is there a fix or a know issue about this issue im having? This happens with any rom i flash.:crying:

Weird thing that I have noticed is,
I have perfect LTE (25MBps up) when I run Stock Android 4.2. CyanogeMod 10.1
Any Sense Rom I run it has no LTE. When I select CDMA/LTE it won't connect to Data at all. When I select CDMA it will connect to 3G.
I hate it and have never found a fix for it. So I am stuck on 10.1 with not a lot of updates. Which is fine, but I like to switch back to Sense everyone once in a while and when I do I am forced to use only 3G.

No, if I remember correctly you're picking up sprint lte, it just thinks it's verizon or whatever carrier you're roaming on.

No. Your 2G network which controls voice is roaming. However your phone has an established 4G network connection. Sort of like being on wifi and roaming. Your calls go through the 2G network while the data is being handled by your wifi/4G. Those signal bars are strictly for your 2G connection. 3G and 4G have their own connection which is not viewable unless you dig into ## settings from dial pad. Sprint don't have any 4G roaming agreements with any other carrier.
