Hi! I have a question regarding the widely known problem regarding the LGOG lack of LTE on T-Mobile.
Does anyone have a N4 converted LGOG? Is that able to run LTE? Or, is there any way to make the network believe that the device is a Nexus 4 instead of an LGOG?
Thanks in advance for answers. At this point, I'd give anything for LTE. Even a 20-minute call with 611 did nothing, and their support request disappeared.

From everything I have read and tried I don't think Tmo LTE will ever happen. I know the att straight talk and LTE works, at least in L.A.

Runs on their frequency but not on CDMA the unlocked phone is GSM only (att; tmob) so yeah, can't use it at all. Quite the shame, I would love to get me a Note.

Found that out the hard way a long time ago
Tmobile has changed a lot, they are just flat turning into thieves with a business license now. Never switch to a carrier just for the devices they can run, that is just plain not smart, at all.
I am not trying to be offensive, I do have your best interest in mind. With how fast devices are pushed out, there will be one that is better and what you want in 6 months time. So it doesn't make sense to move to a carrier for the phones. You will just get yourself locked into some contract that (Tmobile especially) keeps updating to strip more freedom and cost to to you.

Double check on the actual bands it supports; 3G especially considering the fact that tmob uses their own 3G unlike most other GSM carriers.
Aka it should work fine... BUT it might be stuck on EDGE at all times. Not cool.
Hi. Is there any way to boost the 3g speed of simple mobile. My phone is not on their approved phones but I just tried copying the apn settings of another sgs2 but not I777. Thanks in advance

The i777 doesn't have the bands for Simple Mobile's 3g. I'm pretty sure you'll just be stuck with EDGE.

Our phone should be supported. I mean they have the international version ours should work on there faux 4g.
Are they a T-Mobile reseller or AT&T reseller? If TMo, no 3G for you.

WCDMA 850 / 1900 / 2100.. this is the spec for the radiio part supoporting your 3g/4g magic.. that 1900 is no good cause tombile is 1700... 100% non-compatible unless you get a world phone...
Mine is the AT&T one. Yeah, simple mobile said if it's not supported then it will only work with EDGE. I wish there's another way of 'tricking' the network that you have the band that they support.

So you think you should be able to trick the network into thinking you have hardware that you don't? For what purpose? I mean you still wouldn't have the physical hardware required.

dude, you are trying to figure out a way to trick the network into seeing something THE PHONE DOESNT HAVE, which is HARDWARE to support the frequencies...
so lets throw some logic in this shall we?
EVEN if you could trick the network into thinking you had the hardware, your HARDWARE wouldnt be able to utilize the network speeds......so what would the purpose be?

What? Simple Mobile is a T Mobile virtual network operator reseller. They are in no way affiliated with AT&T or do they support AT&T frequencies. No wonder you're trying to "trick" the network into thinking its a different phone.

I'm just asking a question if it's possible to get 3G speeds. I'm new to the forums and still learning the aspects of my phone and the network. Too harsh..but thanks anyways.
It wasn't just a question, it was a seriously stupid question. Like asking if there's a pair of glasses you can wear that will make a Prius look like a Corvette. Sorry, but it just isn't possible. You can't spoof the network into thinking your phone has hardware it doesn't. Are you getting that yet?

Hmm, I thought I did. I guess it didnt fully engage. Oh well, its closed now.
I just bought the prepaid 4G prepaid plan using my atrix and I'm only getting 2G speed. I read that it has to do with the frequency. I can't afford to buy a new phone, so I'm hoping to be able to change the phone frequency or hear any other solution that someone has already tried to get 4G speed. Thanks!

someone already asked about using their atrix on the T-Mobile network.
search for it. I'm sure you'll find the answer with about 15 or less of search time.

Its impossible to change the frequency of a device. There's a reason these things have to go through the FCC before they hit the market. Enjoy your EDGE. I recommend checking out Opera Mini, if you can live with some weird looking pages it'll speed up your web browsing quite a bit.
Not possible by software. Sorry.

Did you ask a question? It would appear this belongs in the Question and Answer forum.
Anyway, the T-Mobile One supports every band at&t does plus AWS. Unlocked and with the right APN, it will work flawlessly on at&t - in fact the T-Mobile software has almost no lag compared to at&t.
There's your answer.

I have an unlocked T-Mobile HTC One, and it works perfect with AT&T SIM. I can get both LTE and HSPA+. That actually makes T-Mobile version a much better buy since I'm getting ALL the bands for both carriers, much less bloatware, and WiFi calling when using T-Mobile SIM.
Couldn't be happier.

Thanks for the tip on that app. It still didn't fix the problem, but I figured out what my problem was. I was only able to get up to HSPA+ speeds since the APN settings for LTE would not work. When I put the LTE APN settings in, it would say there was a data connection issue and the settings were not correct.
After doing some additional research, I found that since the IMEI of the T-Mobile version is not in AT&T's database of LTE capable phones, my data provisioning on my account was locked in at only receiving HSPA+ speeds. My last phone was a T-Mobile HTC One S, which wasn't LTE capable, so it made no difference what the data provisioning was on my account. To make a long story short, I took my wife's HTC One X that she was not using any longer and had the AT&T phone rep put that phone on my account since it's capable of LTE and the IMEI is obviously in their catalog of devices.
After that, the settings worked immediately for my HTC One.
The more and more I look for help from AT&T, the more I realize that the company doesn't have many employees that are skilled in the way of assisting outside devices. Since T-Mobile welcomes customers to bring their AT&T devices to their network, I can only assume they would have figured this out a whole lot quicker.

Their policy on this seems to be very arbitrary. I purchased mine at Wal-Mart and paid outright for it, and then submitted the necessary info immediately to their SIM Unlock department. Here's the response I received from them a week later:
T-Mobile Sim Unlock Request
Sim Unlock Reference: ---------
IMEI: 35597205-------
Thank you for taking the time to contact T-Mobile. We have received your SIM Unlock Request. Unfortunately, we are unable to process your request at this time. The account must meet the following criteria:
1. 60 days of active usage on device
2. Must have $50.01 or more in accumulative refills since activation.
Please submit a new SIM Unlock Request once the subscriber has met the Eligibility criteria.
Thank You,

How did you get it unlocked? You would have to wait 40 days to unlock it by T-Mobile. Did you find a site that can get it unlocked? I heard that most of the sites don't have the codes yet for T-Mobile version of HTC One.

As far as I know N5 isn't Verizon compatible yet. Whether it works for calls and texts but not data I do not know but the consensus being that it's not fully supported. They will probably cut a deal and release a branded version soon.
