I just switched to Rogers with an LTE plan and LTE SIM card, and my area is has complete LTE coverage but the best I am getting is HSPA+. Does the UCLA3 only enable LTE on the 700mhz band? If so, what is the best Rogers modem to use for LTE? Thanks!

Welcome back man!!! looks like you need to check on rulez again so you know where to post your questions!!!!
To answer your question just make nadroid and flash it if it does not have LTE then you can clear out and always go back to ur Nandroid!

There's really no need for that at all. That only makes it worse.
OP, you're better off asking a question like this in the QA section. Good luck!

Does the nandroid restore the baseband? I know a nandroid restores everyhting else but you might actually have to reflash the original radio that you were on before the UCLA3 version...not actually sure though.
This radio is the best for Rogers everything work great, lte as well and reception is great. At work where I only sometimes got connection at all, I have min two bars now, and internet works perfect. Thanks for makers and uploader

i concur.
lte picks up where the rogers modem doesn't I go between that and the telus modem (which doesn't do LTE but has good hspa speeds) It also does a great job in just automatic mode selecting the right band for low signal areas.
Yep I use it on Rogers with LTE working.
Also, someone mentioned a fix where you dial *#2263# to change the baseband to LTE only.. which works, but I stopped getting incoming calls and couldn't make outgoing calls when I did that.. fyi. Maybe it was just my case.

Not only data uses LTE network. When I used LTE data plan I got missing calls sometime (the call went directly into voice mail). Called rogers and the tech confirmed that calls work through LTE as well. If the signal of LTE is weak the call then bounces back into voice mail.

i've been switching between LA3 and KJ7 modems past 2 weeks...signal seemed great on LA3, but i'm not convinced it's good for me....
Consistently past several tests I get 2-3Mb down and 0.5-0.8Mb up on LA3......and if I flash to KJ7 I get 2-14Mb down and 1-3Mb up.....flash back to LA3 and it changes back....and flash again to KJ7 and back to other numbers....
In my area, KJ7 actually seems to be better, and I've switched back for now. I'm mainly around HSPA, not LTE though...
It also seems to be giving me better battery life...albeit we're talking difference of maybe 30 minutes to 1 hour...this phone is a PIG when it comes to battery life
So I've been using this modem since yesterday and I haven't been able to pick up an LTE signal but maybe Rogers coverage map is incorrect? idk but the 3g signal has been great
The only problem I'm facing (which I'm not sure if it's caused by the modem or something else) is that I couldn't send a text message to anyone but myself cuz it would fail... but if that person sends me a text first, then I can start sending text messages back no problem...
I registered for Rogers One Number, does that have anything to do with it?
UCLA3 radio works fine for me and I'm on Rogers network.
To check if your problems are radio dependent, why can't you just flash back to the Rogers radio? I believe it is on the same radio thread.

I tried that twice but when I check under Status it still shows the UCLA3 and not the one I flashed.
Also, I keep setting to to GSM/HSPA/LTE (Auto) mode but it keeps switching back to the one without LTE
EDIT - For some reason the APN settings were only for non-LTE access. Changed the apn to ltemobile.apn and now it works

I have ICS-SUPERLITE-4.2 on Rogers and i totally lost LTE. I wrote in many existing threads and dev section and no one answered.
I lost LTE, even in areas of full reception, i dont have it, i used stock APN and LTE APN and still dont get it. I do get 4G.
Other on rogers running 4.2 have lte, just less reception so im guessing radio is not the problem. Any idea?
mhx did say he broke lte in 4.1 so maybe you got something from that. im flashing now and ill see how it goies
well im on 4.2 so its supposed to be fixed
I was having lte issues on 4.2 aswell

I've had to use the *#2263# option to get LTE on every ICS ROM I have tried so far, works great but sometimes I have had to redo it after the 2nd and 3rd reboot for it to take...
Another solution is after you flash an ICS ROM is to have patience , if you wait 5 minutes or so after flashing, before even touching\unlocking the screen, then most of the time everything settles in nicely on its own.
if ur using rogers with the ics leaks, there's several issues. Call id and lack of lte being one of them. This issue is present with all of them, it is an unstable leal after all. i believe lack of lte unless near a strong connection is due to uclca4 issues.
well after doing what i wrote 2 posts above, i have no issues with phone except for reboot/power off hang, i also get the occasional 2-3 second lag but its quite rare. Besides, im very haapy with rom, battery life is much better than GB
no lte after ics leak
I've the same issue with AT&T in Miami which has a strong LTE network. LTE worked great with GB. After installing the ICS leak all I get is HSPA:11. When I go into *#2263# it says RAT Selection option is restricted. Anyone have a solution?

Probably don't have the correct apn. apn needs to be set to pta in order to get lte.

Ditto - well actually I AM seeing LTE, but a drastically reduced data rates. Does not seem to matter what ROM, or Kernel or how many times I have re-flashed or re-flashed just the ICS Radio, I get roughly HALF of what I was seeing on GB. Ugh. I don't WANNA go back to Gingerbread. I just want perfection. Is that too much to ask for?

It's not the APN, at least in my case. It just crappy reception, and it happened exactly when I flashed ICS, and has been like that ever since. This in spite of re-flashing the Olin leak, reflashing the the radio, etc. It really irks me, and I do NOT want to go back to GB

RAT Selection option is restricted
Just flashed SeanZ ICS 4.2A-7 ROM and i727UCAL4 modem. I'm still getting "RAT Selection option is restricted". There is nothing else on that screen. This has been 3 different radios now and I cannot get a screen that allows me to select the radio band.
Would flashing a different kernel work? Any other ideas?
For some reason I cannot get LTE to work at all on CM10. I've done everything and it still wont work at all. I tried reverting back to stock rom, and when I did, LTE worked. So I thought if I went back to CM10 from stock it would resolve the issue, but it did not. I've checked my APNs and I cannot change the preferred network mode and i tried *#*#info#*#* and i can't change anything there to anything that has LTE on it. I'm not sure if it's just a problem with the ROM or what, but I've done plenty of researched, searched all the forums, and can't find anything that will fix.
Additional information:
Im in ATT
I've tried all the radios
and I AM in an LTE area.

Ok, try different apn. Which cm10 are you trying to use?
Does the problem happen on other ROMs? I'm not saying to use a different ROM, just saying that if it doesn't happen on, say, AOKP or Orthus (both CM-based), it's probably an issue with how CM10 is configured on your phone.
If you go into network operators (settings -network)and select att it will allow to change modes.

Haha yeah most of the time this setting is overlooked and this option enables you to turn off LTE if you want (which you don't have to have a RAT unlocked modem as presumed) and if you go to *#*#4636#*#* on your dialer you can have it set to LTE only as well.

I have the exact same issues. I've done everything on this post plus done all the research as well. For my problem whenever I enter an LTE area my data service completely drops for about 5 seconds and then when it connects it only shows HSPA+. I have never been able to pick up LTE. When I was on CM9.1 I had no issues at all. LTE connected with no issues. So is this a CM10 issue or a phone issue?
try this, might help, might not, make a backup, if you have more than one apn, remove all apn's except your lte apn(ATT Pta, for rogers :ltemobile), restart phone
edit: of course make sure it was set to the lte apn in the first place, if it was and still have probs, do above procedure if you have more than one apn

For some reason my APN was not set to the lte one (ATT Pta). I changed it to that. Hopefully that fixes my problem. Thanks for the help!
I have a slightly different problem. I am running the latest cm10 nightly and notice that any time I get lucky and go into a 4g coverage area I can only make phone calls. No data transfers at all. I have my APN set to ATT LTE pta which I assumed is the right selection. Im normally in a A3g(HSPA)~700-17 coverage area. Is this the wrong APN to use?

Yup. I have HSPA/HSPA+ around my house but close to work I have LTE. No problem with switching or losing data connection when I go from HSPA to LTE. Just double check your APN settings. There might be a typo or some missing field. Or you can create a new APN for lte and use that as your default.

Radio or modern is the same thing as baseband. I'm not familiar with the slim bean rom so maybe someone who is can give you a better answer. But in Mobil networks, apn on the superlite rom I have three options with one being lte.

Have you run a speed test lately? As said, many custom ROMs don't have an LTE icon; 4G is LTE, H+ is what AT&T considers "4G" in areas without LTE coverage. Running a speed test is an easy way to tell. If you're getting LTE speeds when your phone says 4G, you're on a ROM that doesn't show an LTE icon.

Go to phone information, scroll down to a drop down menu. Sometimes it'll say WCDMA preferred. Open it and select LTE and your signal should drop and cone back as LTE. After select LTE/GSM and close it.
Are you sure you were on LTE in the first place? AT&T is kinda misleading with their branding and calls HSPA+ "4G" whereas LTE is "4G LTE".

I try flashing pacman rom and my phone is displaying the 4g logo. In the pacman rom thread, I saw a snap shot with
the lte symbol. Any ideas?
I have a rooted and unlocked at&t skyrocket on jellybean 4.1.2 with very slow speeds, so I tried flashing the radios UCMC1 and UXUMA7 through cwm and nothing has changed. After messing with the APN settings a little my data is no longer working. It shows the bars but I can't get a connection.
I flashed the radio UVLI1 in hopes that I would get lucky but that caused my bars to go away to be replaced by a slashed circle. I flashed back to UCMC1 which is showing the bars, but still no data connection. I have broken my back googling and searching forums on this matter but I can't seem to figure this out. Any help please?

Don't double post
I think UCMC1 and UXUMA7 are ATT and Rogers radios respectively. UVLI1 is the T-Mobile SGS2 ICS radio, which may not work on your JellyBean rom.
Try UVMC6, which is the radio for T-Mobile's SGS2 Jelly Bean update. You can find it here:

It depends on what you observe using either of these..
Try them one by another and see which one is better (UCMC1 vs UX radio) in signal and data speeds ... Personally I couldn't find any difference in my location ... Both gave me the exact same signal and data speeds (TM LTE).

The UX gave me faster data speeds. Call clarity is about the same. I see 4G more than with the UC radio... I was wondering about the T-Mobile radio
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
T-Mobile radios would give you the ability to connect to T-Mobile 3G using AWS bands 1700/2100 Mhz Band4...And no LTE (or 4G) of course since the Hercules and Blaze (or the note one from TM) devices have no LTE radio chip...
If you live in an area in which T-Mobile deployed their new LTE(and most likely they already refarmed the PCS 1900 band), use UCMC1 or the UXMA7 radio,whichever you find better...Setting the apn to fast.t-mobile.com is essential for sure to get the service...
If you live in an area that T-Mobile is still at their 3G service (AWS bands for HSPA+) use the newest blaze JB radio...
Edit : when you say faster data speeds UX vs UC , any speed vs speed measurement you can share ? probably I didn't give each radio enough testing and jumped to conclude that they have same data speeds !

Edit: He was on 4 months ago but..links still don't work.

Thanks so much guys. Was looking so much for the modems in that thread only, that I missed the recommendations of the blaze modem. Thanx again..
Ok got 3g (shows the 4g icon in the panel) with the fast apn. Able to send and receive mms, BUT when its on the 3g, I have no cell service, meaning no calls or texts come or go. Going back to the default apn, got service back but only E and can't send or receive mms. I've noticed alot of people with this problem, but everyone just tells them make sure to use the fast apn. I'm at a loss where to go from here. Any ideas?

Anyone with any ideas? I'd like to get this phone fully working before giving it to my son for his birthday on Sunday.

I think you'll have to manually add a T-Mobile APN..

We don't have no T-Mobile where I'm from so I haven't looked into this myself but I hope it helps you, if not there are lots of other Skyrocket T-Mobile threads on xda where you should be able to find something out.
Google: "skyrocket t-mobile".
Good luck
T-Mobile does not offer the Skyrocket. Skyrocket is AT&T's version of the device. T-Mobiles version of the phone is called Titanium. Model # SGH-T989... I'm not sure if XDA has a section in the forum for it but I would definitely search for that specific device if that's what you have.
Edit... It appears they do. http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1329&nocache=1&z=2641919930465519

Actually the T-Mobile version is called Hercules.
Well guys, I officially give up. I have tried numerous modems and no luck whatsoever. Tried changing apns to what others have reported success with, no luck. 4g shows temporarily with blaze, but it has no internet, mms or calling available. Once the 4g turns to edge, there is still no internet, but calls work. Texts go thru, but no mms. I am frustrated beyond belief. Guess he gets a wifi only data enabled phone that makes calls and SMS messages only.

Actually no it's not. It was CODENAMED Hercules while in development but was released as Titanium. True story, look into it.
Not to mention, even if it was, why would you be in the SGH-i727 forum looking for files???
If you click on the link I gave you, you'll find what you were lookin for and then some.

Because that's the phone he has. Obviously. Everything else is irrelevant.

Because I'm trying to get T-Mobile 3g in my i727 but need the modem that others have said gives them the 3g on here, which are mostly tmobile. Also, if its called titanium, then everyone in this forum and tmobiles forum look like idiots because they call it HERCULES.

I'm in the same boat. I have tried everything I can find on these forums and can only get 2G. The phone will briefly connect to HSPA and LTE, but will not get data and cannot make phone calls. I just wish I knew how others are connecting to Tmobile with their phones. Wish I had just bought another hercules since it works perfectly. It doesn't get LTE, but usually I'm at 10-12 MBPS on HSPA.

I have a feeling that many of the success stories are in or near refarmed areas. Me, I'm 30+ miles from even H speeds on att or T-Mobile. And I'm not in what I consider a rural area with over 300000 people living in the 2 immediate towns to me, close to Edwards Air Force Base.
The telus kj3 radio from the link in your first post...I have if you want to try it.
