[Q] SCH-I605 LTE on ATT/TMO? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Will be getting a Verizon Note 2 soon. Looks like 3G/4G could be enabled on ATT/TMO (where 1900 available), but not LTE yet because Verizon uses band 13 while ATT/TMO uses band 17.
So is the band thing fixed due to hardware capability (chipset type), or it's still at firmware (software) level? Is there any way to change band 13 to band 17?
It was said that TMO Note 2 is the most flexible version, but now since ATT Note 2 can get LTE on both as well and it's usually cheaper than TMO Note 2, in GSM Note 2 versions maybe ATT is better now?
If Verizon Note 2 can use ATT/TMO LTE, then it will become the King of the three. Anyone has any idea?

You will defiantly get 3.5G on AT&T, no idea about T-Mobile.
I have a VZW SCH-i605 Note II.
I recently switched to an AT&T GoPhone plan when they changed them last week. I get about 4 meg down and 1-1.5 meg up in H+ areas and about 2.5 meg down and 700kbs up in H areas.
3G will be showing when you are not using data. (standby to save battery)
H will show up once you start an app that uses data. (HSDPA) (3G)
H+ will show up when you are in an area that supports it. (HSPA+) (3.5G)
I do not have AT&T LTE in my area, but the rep told me that I 99% will not be able to use it due to hardware differences. (1% chance that the hardware does support it and someone releases a modem that has access to to band 13)
Better than anything VZW 3G could do as I live in an area that does not have VZW LTE yet and according to the CS rep, never will.

I've been wondering about this myself, I've seen quite a few threads without definitive answers on how well the service is. Thank you, I'm going to save this for any future people who ask the same question.
Also what did you do to get AT&T service? Did you modify the APNs?

I went to a retail AT&T store to get my sim card with service so it was free and to quickly port my numbers (2 lines).
The guy there added in the APN info from a SGS4. I added in some other APNs also and am currently testing them. I will list them below, if I don't mention it, leave it blank.
From the S4

The one from the S4 and the default AT&T ones both work about the same as far as everything is working and both get the same speeds with data.
The cingular APN works flawlessly for everything I tested it on but speeds were about 50% slower for data.

Thanks for the info I have been wanting to try this:good:

I switched to AT&T and my data and text messaging worked, but my MMS didn't. I tried a lot of APNs until I finally found one that worked. I edited the fields to show the settings from my apn page exactly. Simply changing the APN to pta did the trick for me.

Here is an interesting development... I flashed CyanogenMod 10 on my Sony Xperia arc S phone and the ROM downloaded some settings by itself. There are 3 APNs that comes with this ROM.
1. ATT
2. ATT LTE
3. StraightTalk ATT
StraightTalk was picked by default. I was about to delete them all and enter the settings from here but then I received a text message from a friend... Lo and behold, it was a MMS message with a pic attached and already downloaded. I saw that my WiFi was on, so I turned off the WiFi and asked my friend to send me more pics... They all arrived including a video snippet.... Then I sent one, a larger pic, and he received it. All amazed I fired up the CM10's browser and went to www.testmy.net Did a smarttest and my download was 3.4 Mbps and upload was 577 Kbps... In Phoenix, AZ...

That's the settings I use for straight talk, works great. I get 4g just about everywhere here in pa. Mms works great too. I've had straight talk for a year and a half on at&t. Can't complain. If you use alot of cell data they will throttle you slow, but I'm usually close to wifi. I've heard 2GB then they slow you down.

I'm getting 1.3Mbps down and 657 Kbps up. Pretty happy with it.
To the last poster, I thought Straight Talk didn't offer LTE coverage?! If it did, it'd be an even more amazing deal than I had thought it was!
My data works fine. Got like 6mbps this morn but my MMS wont send for ****. Using an Xperia Ion
Pantech Pocket ATT - Straight Talk MMS Settings
The Pantech Pocket needs to have the Straight Talk APN data loaded to TWO locations.
Both Phone APN and Wap APN need to be setup with the Straight Talk APN settings.
Straight Talk makes it sound like you only need to enter the information in one location.
You need to enter the information in Phone APN and Wap APN, if you want MMS to work!
APN name: Straight Talk
APN: att.mvno
Proxy: Straight Talk value
Port: 80
MMSC: Straight Talk value
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.33
MMS Port: 80
My Pantech Pocket is running flawlessly on Straight Talk now. MMS is 100% functional. The pictures are getting through. I'm getting 5Mbps download speed and 1Mbps upload speed.
My Pantech burst uses only one apn. On gingerbread and ice cream sandwich. I don't run proxy but the rest of the settings I put in and works good. Seems faster tried it. 40kbps proxy vs 4000kbps no proxy. Not sure why. Any ideas?

HOLY SH!T!!!
I just put in the settings Bushmaster78FS posted and I am now on TRUE 4G with ST. 6Mbps!!! ITS FASTER THAN MY WORKS WIFI BY 3X!!!
AMAZING!!! THANKS BUSHMASTER!
Nice
Thanks for the settings you posted Bushmaster.
The settings provided are the first ones I have used and successfully got both data and mms working with only one APN.
Using Samsung Galaxy S III.
1. My phone is unocked and compatible on both AT&T networks and T-Mobile right now i am using an blue AT&T sim and i am thinking to make the move to T-Mobile network. Do you think i can use the same AT&T compatible sim and just change the APN setting to T-Mobile and have it work on the T-Mobile network or so i have to buy a sim?
2. I heard that you can get a free sim by buying a free phone and just using it on your phone but other people say that those sims are lock to those phones. Which is true?
3. I see that Straight talk sells cheap GSM phones and my GF has her phone on T-Mobile so can i buy one of the ST phones and swap it to use on T-Mobile or are the locked and can they be unlocked?
I just switched from the default straight talk apn to the ones bushmaster posted. I went from 1 mbps to 4.8 on a Nexus 4.

anyone try these settings on S2 i9100 and see speed gains?
APN set, no data.
Hey gang, I've looked far-and-wide and haven't been able to locate a solution so, I throw myself on y'all's mercy and ask if anyone has a clue why I can't receive wireless data on my SGT AT&T GT-P1000.
I received my AT&T Straight Talk SIM the other day and porting the phone over was no issue. However, when I set up the APN I did not immediately reboot the phone due to some confusion about when the service actually transferred. Could this have affected my registration on the ST wireless network?
I've entered the APN settings precisely but, alas, still cannot connect to the wireless data. I really want to move over to ST, not only will it save me $30 a month whilst adding an "unlimited" data plan but, best of all, I'll get to tell AT&T to go pound sand.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
did you add in the " http://"?
Does anybody now any way to unthrotte. Since we all now that ST throttle after 5gb. I called to ST customers service, they told me that unlimited data is only for navigation.

Data on AT&T GoPhone

So I bought the AT&T Optimus G on Amazon Wireless off contract and unlocked it through the AT&T international department. I bought the phone to get a smartphone without signing up for a contract and paying for a contract data plan.
When I got the phone I found out that GoPhone doesn't support data on 4G LTE phones. I live in an area where wifi is prevalent so I survived for a short period without problem, calls and text was fine. It took me over a month to find a way to get data on GoPhone to work with the LG Optimus G.
Here is how you do it.
1. From main screen: App Tray--> Networks--> Connectivity-->Mobile Networks--> Access Point Names-->
2. press "Menu"
3. Press "New APN"
4. Input these setting (yes caps matters):
Name: AT&T
APN: wap.cingular
Proxy: wireless.cingular.com
Port: 80
Username:[email protected]
Password:CINGULAR1
Server: leave blank
MMSC: http :// mmsc. cingular. com (sorry for the spaces, new users have to post several times to put links up)
MMS Proxy: 66.209.11.32
mms protocol: wap 2.0
MMS Port: 80
MCC:310
MNC:410
APN Type: leave blank
5. Go back to the APNs menu and select the new APN (AT&T) as your APN. (my experience is it will immediately work but if not follow the next steps)
6. Power off the phone completely.
7. When you restart, you should be able to access prepaid data.
No idea on the speed yet, I think it is 3g not 4g, although I am seeing the 4g symbol in the notification bar. See attached picture.
That is HSPA not LTE. LTE would specifically say 4G LTE in the icon.

Maybe you guys can help me? My HTC One is only getting EDGE.
My HTC One that is being used with MetroPCS' BYOD plan is only getting EDGE, and not 3g, 4g, or even LTE. The phone was being used with Verizon Wireless before I got it. Everything works fine, but my data speed is super slow (EDGE 0.01 download and 0.01 upload). When I check the APN settings, it still says Verizon Wireless Internet. The people at my local MetroPCS store were no help since they don't know anything about APN settings. Thanks.

Ulefone Armor 6E - APN LTE settings

I have tried an AT&T sim card and a T-Mobile sim card in the new phone, but I have been unable to get LTE to work? Does anyone else have this new phone? If so, what carrier are you using and what APN settings are working for you? Better yet, what APN settings dictate the phone to use LTE? I want to use the phone on AT&T. I currently use a V35 on AT&T and when I put the SIM card from it into the Armor 6E, I cannot get LTE. I have tried numerous APN settings without any luck. Can anyone help?
Well a quick check of the AT&T site says maybe not.

Those are the settings available from AT&T. Again, you might want to check on a new SIM card. SIM compatibility may be the issue. A compatible SIM card will display 25, 26, 27, or 28 in the ninth and tenth digits spots.
My Armor 6E just automatically worked when I switched the [AT&T] / Straight Talk SIM out of my old phone when I re-activated my service with a PIN card yesterday. It looked like the settings in the last post, but I only had 3G with the "automatic" APN that just showed up upon activation.
When I put the Straight Talk/[tracfone/AT&T] APN settings in a new APN, I got 4G HD.
These are the settings that got me (Straight Talk) 4G HD:
-----
Name: straight talk
APN: tfdata
MMSC: http://mms-tf.net
MMS proxy: mms3.tracfone.com
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
You don’t need to setup a username nor password.

You might try them and see if you get 4G. In my area (mountains of Central Utah), Straight Talk and Tracfone use the AT&T towers. I'm not sure how the legal/contracts end works in other parts of the country.
May try this with my Ulefone Armor 3W

I've been doing research on how to get my Ulefone Armor 3W setup with Straight Talk since I had an issue with my Samsung S9 so I figure it may be a challenge with a phone that's not typically seen on Straight Talk networks (most people have not heard of Ulefone). I don't plan on switching to any phone unless it is android driven os, my wife pulled me from the darkside (i*hone) a few years back and I've never looked back. If there's any other settings you've come across I'd appreciate it though I think I've exhausted all but the dark web of any details on how to setup apn settings on an android device.
My MMS has been broken for a while, and recently I lost 4G with the settings I posted earlier. After a lot of searching I found the following settings that fixed both problems:
Field Setting
APN RESELLER
AUTH_TYPE: None
MMSC http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS_PROXY proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS_PORT 80
MMS_APN_TYPE default,mms,supl
These are from:
Tracfone APN Settings – smartphonematters
