With all the development and new roms which combo are you using? I'm currently on nexus mod 4 stock UCLA 3 2.3.6 kernel getting outstanding battery life.
On NexusMOD 4 and was on romracers stockish0.3
just switched to faux010m UV-75 and UC to 1.4. Gonna see how that runs
I tried the faux kernel uv and uc but the silver stock ucla kernel is amazing for me with heavy usage
I would use juggernaught 5.0

I'm using Sky-ICS on the 2.6.35.11+ kernal. Pretty decent battery life, although I am not in a LTE area so I'm not sure how that would be on the battery. ROM is fast, smooth, and pretty customizable.

I have that ROM, it's not missing it.
And every single rom for Skyrocket has LTE Support, actually the phone hardware is always there, that I know for sure.
some ROM's don;t even have an option to choose and still applying apn works perfect. On AT&T ROM the icon will say 4G and small LTE under it, on Rogers it will say LTE.
If 4G is working there is no way you can be missing LTE as LTE is 4G just faster.

AT&T uses regular LTE which is just 4G updated it's called 4G-LTE, Canadian network is way more advanced.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4G
coming back to my original point, if your phone shows 4G sign and you don;t get LTE, two reason's 1) you are not in the range for LTE 2) your apk is wrong. This is tested and retested, just change the apn and get in the LTE range and see the magic.

well there u go, becuz I'm on rogers in Canada and LTE is LTE, 4 g is slower. Yes, the LTE radio remains active but the rom is incompatible with the frequencies of Rogers LTE = no LTE. That being said a RAT unlocked radio like kj7 may work, but 1) i highly doubt it, and 2) I never got around to testing this as the UCLA3 modem and kernels combo work great for me

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

LTE works fine. Just make sure it says ltemobile.apn instead of rogers-core. If it still doesnt work then go int the phones menu *#2263# and select option 4. After that go back into the menu again and select 1 for automatic.

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

I'm having the same loss of LTE/4g issue as the OP, but when I dialed *2767*3855# all I got was a "Welcome to Verizon Wireless, your call could not be completed as dialed" message.
What am I doing wrong? Do I have to be in an LTE area to do this (My work/social life is a 4g area, home is not.)?
Thanks!
Does it say h+?
From someone that helped me. I was told the following
ATT never called their HSPA+ 4G until TMo started advertising theirs as 4G. If TMo can why cant ATT? ATT has had HSPA+ long before TMO has after all, but only overseas unlocked phones utilized it. TMo howevrr put a lot more money into building up their H+ network while ATT put it into LTE. and their H+ speeds differences clearly show that.
Anyways.. 
To better clarify for those coming from stock
Stock Rom. = CM10
4G LTE = 4G
4G = H+
Not sure if stock rom considers regular HSDPA (H) as 3G or 4G....
3G = 3G

Well depending on what CM10 Rom you flashed it could have flashed a new kernel. Try reverting back to the stock kernel and see if that works for you. I would also recommend another fresh install of the rom. Occasionally mine does that to depending on what Rom I'm coming from.
Had this happen to me when I flashed d2vzw the other night. Downloaded Phone Info from Play and my phone was set to generic gsm. Changed it back to LTE and it was all good after that.

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?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2349914
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:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895400
Results can never be guaranteed, but this is the radio I use, and it has worked fine on every single rom I've tried, Touchwiz or AOSP, even in areas w/o the 1900Mhz refarm.

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 !

So many scenarios on battery life.
Signal strength, Apps, Wakelocks, brightness the list goes on.
You will have to play with it and give and take for your liking.
The best I've gotten was 3 days some odd hours.
Its a great phone you will not be disappointed.
We have an awesome community willing to help with any and all problems.
With that said you need to do your homework first and READ READ READ.

So I'll just ask it differently then - Does the battery last a whole day (from morning to night) on non-LTE areas (auto brightness always on)
when only doing light-moderate use (just phone calls, texting, light apps like calculator, camera, playing a little music/videos, no gaming, no wifi, no internet)
Thanks!

LTE radio will not turn on if network apn doesn't provide it ..
So if network doesn't provide LTE , phone will connect to H+ if available ... No extra battery drain (from LTE) in this scenario.. I had a similar situation when I was on Starighttalk , they don't provide LTE , my location is an LTE market if I was using an at&t sim
Although it's a great phone , but it is getting old nowadays .. You might think of the international S3 maybe or an S4 .. Just my 2 cents..
PS :Custom roms aren't magic by selecting network preferred setting , you can do it in touchwiz with *#*#4636#*#* in dialer , but you have to use a RAT unlocked modem like the Roger's ones...
Does anybody get bad call quality, Because I read on some reviews that the call quality on the skyrocket is not the best...

Or you can do the same thing in Settings>Mobile Netwroks>Network Type Selection, with a RAT unlocked modem yes.

No you can't on stock UCMC1 rom (the one I use),even with rat unlocked radio...That's why this dialer code got the attention because it's the only way to do it(in UCMC1)
Don't spread false info

Really? I remember people saying you could do that on the AT&T JB rom with RUXUMA7 radio.

It doesn't...I even double checked that...UCMC1 stock doesn't provide "Network mode selection" even with Rogers radio...It has to be done with the dialer code...
