No LTE?

Hello devs!
So as we know the phone comes with an unlocked SIM so I'm not on Verizon. However, my carrier provides LTE service yet it does not operate the network at all when I choose LTE/CDMA unless I choose global which gets me a 3G connection only. How do I activate the LTE?

Help please band Lte 4G

Hi need help please , I have a Galaxy S4 I545 Verizon to buy in Spain , apparently to be used , the store bought it from someone who originally bought in the United States. And only I can connect on 3G and even in the back of the device says s4 verizon 4g lte . When I change the LTE network goes without service. Let alone globally connect on 3G, I wonder if I can enable or install 4G LTE bands . Now I live in Sweden and have no lte since only 700 US that band is used. Thank you

Issue with Verizon S4 Prepaid build OH7 : i545ppvruaoh7 Please help

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 canĀ“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

how to have a fake 4G

Hello !
My new phone plan is giving 100go data if you have a 4G phone (100go in 4G AND 3G). But if you have a 3G phone, only 3go data...!
I would like my phone to be detected as a 4G phone. It's a galaxy note 2 (N7100).
My mobile network operator uses the IMEI to detect my phone. Can I change it to a 4G phone like the N7105 ?
Any other idea ?
Thank you
I think you've been watching too much Youtube videos.
A bit mature reply: No you can't. Your carrier doesn't give you different network bands according to your IMEI. The network is always in the air. You just need the right hardware to pick it up. In this case your 3G device doesn't have the LTE modem needed to pick up the 4G signals.
