"I looked into the situation on this and I can verify that there is not a native way to disable LTE on the AT&T version of the One X. While we don't normally recommend this, you may want to check the Play store to see if there's an app that will give you this functionality. Please be aware that if you run into any concerns through the use of such software we can certainly try and offer assistance, but the use of such an app is at your sole discretion. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns, and thanks for being a member of the HTC community!"
If enough people report this or ask about this. I am hopeful that they'll add LTE toggle natively in the interface.
They could add a toggle, but....I don't think it would work.
I'm pretty sure that AT&T, whether it be in ther SIMS, or just over the network, force the phones to allow LTE. I don't think that I have even been able to disable 3G on an AT&T device since my Moto Backflip. Ha, if I even could on there. (Though technically, the Backflip was my second device...Aria was the first and I broke it thus had to downgrade
tl;dr The problem is AT&T, not software. Custom ROMs with LTE toggles would have the same issue so I can't see how HTC would be able to fix it either
Someone correct me if I'm an idiot
You can toggle off 3G on the AT&T iPhones. Looks like AT&T just has HTC by the balls (pardon my French). Locked bootloader, presumed kernel release delay....
I'd love to be able to turn off LTE when I don't need it. HSPDA is plenty fast to check email and forums (and way better on the battery).

Never knew that, I admittedly haven't tried on this device. But it makes me wonder why I couldn't disable 3G on my Atrix.
Thanks, since I live in a Non LTE area I might as well keep it disabled for convenience

here you go: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27697880&postcount=1
also if you use ASIA 1.88 the option is also there. with the auto switch. so its ATT being douches
its actually pretty simple why ATT wants to force LTE when they can, it simply means you'll use more data, and the more data you use, the more money they make.
Here's just an example, you open a 10 minute youtube video with 3g, you watch maybe 30 seconds and decide not to watch anymore. You may have downloaded 1-2 minutes worth of streaming data, where as with LTE, in that same 30 seconds, you could have downloaded the entire 10 minutes, thus causing more data usage.
that menu from the gsm hack doesnt work though. or it never worked for me anyway. no matter what option I picked it would just go back to the default
It probably built into at&t kernal to not allow it, in did notice with 1.88 kernal you could.

Now the big question is, how much better is your battery life when you turn off LTE?
Can anyone safely notice an increase that isn't placebo?
Care to test formally, anyone?
You can disable LTE by adding a new APN which uses wap.cingular. This does work on att without any problems. You can find the APN settings here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1675879&highlight=cingular+apn
It does make a noticeable difference in battery life, too.

Yeap! stupid me had the use only 2g option selected when taking pics. Waiting for my GF to come by tomorrow to do a nice vid.
You will not need to send phone anywhere and it is working on latest update.
It will be a paid service so will not be posted on forums unless XDA allows me to like how they do for the HTC unlockers...
Only like 5 bucks and free to FRM donators...not much...last I am speaking about it so I do not get in trouble with XDA
If I ever decide to get the droid 2 global over the desire z, I will definitely pay 5 bucks for this.
The only thing stooping me to getting a D2G is battery life
so awesome!! I would love this, so it should be as simple as a flash? I would deff pay for this!
If we already have the new update for the global would it still work to flash this rom?
We also have to already have it network unlocked with the subsidy code right?
How do I become an FRM donator and help fund this awesome development?
You go to the team defuse website and they have a link on how to donate, and they also keep you updated with news there

Is the T-mobile in the US? If so, the phone doesn't support T-mobile 3G bands anyway.
So if this is the patch released on FRM then it appears to not work with T-Mobile USA as I just tried it without success.
I would really like to see the evidence that this works at all.
A couple of screenshots with no data connection showing is hardly convincing.
I am well aware that it is possible to do, I have it working on my D2G with both T-Mobile and AT&T SIMs with Edge on T-Mobile and Edge,3G and HSPA all working on AT&T using the DroidBandUnlock method.
Their method makes modifications to the radio and I don't see how it is possible to do this via system level patches.
u t-mobile fans got the G2 already and the price is not expensive at all ....

So a lot of people have been PM'ing me in regards to this matter.
There are also a couple of threads lingering around in the General section on both the t-mobile and skyrocket forums which brush on the topic but don't really go into the details.
I decided to post this here as a MOD.
Yes the Skyrocket will support HSPA+/3g on T-mobiles network. How do I know this? I had one and was using it on t-mobile with no problem.
There are a couple radios you can flash to get HSPA+ on the skyrocket:
T-mobile SGH-T989 KID: http://minus.com/mlupRDTvJ#1
T-mobile SGH-T989 VK1: http://minus.com/mlupRDTvJ#4
Telus KJ3: http://minus.com/mlupRDTvJ#2
Here is the Stock Skyrocket radio: http://minus.com/mlupRDTvJ#3
Depending on where you are located/what bands your operator uses I would assume one of these radios would work better than the other.
On a side note a lot of people have just "claimed" that the skyrocket doesn't pick up hspa+. This is not true, it does but you will have to figure out the right ROM/Kernel/Radio combination. I experienced intermittent connectivity on certain skyrocket kernels while running a T-mobile radio etc. Either way I ALWAYS had the ability to connect to hspa+. Most often I would get speeds of between 3-7mbps. I personally used VK1.
When it comes down to the bottom line though, the skyrocket is essentially the same device as the galaxy s2 but with LTE.
IF this helped please hit the thanks button!
I am also using my skyrocket on T-Mobile. I have Juggernaut/Faux 009/VKL1 combo. So far it has been the best combo for me where I get 3-7mbps. The only problem I have it slow upload speeds. Not just for this combo but for all the combos i tried. I am only getting 50-100kbps upload speeds. Any idea why?
*just a heads up, multiupload has been down for weeks already, might wantto change the download links.

i777 have completely different hardware.
But, what you need exactly (ROM, baseband) and why you need it?
if you need your i777 work better on t-mo network, try flash i9100 modems, may be it'll help.
If there will be problems, you may flash back i777 modem
PS: do not forget to make nandroid backup before flashing

Does anyone know if the AT&T Galaxy Note ROMs can be flashed on our phone? The Bell Galaxy Note (also LTE) comes with AWS HSPA+ and LTE out of the box... if it also has the MDM9200 chip and if the radios could be flashed on our phones, this could enable LTE, AT&T 3G, and AWS HSPA all at the same time!
I would assume not due to the resolution etc but the radios....quite possible they could

A plea to all American T-Mobile users...
Since American users started taking delivery of their handsets on or around 24 April, these forums have exploded with users talking about The T-Mobile Version of the phone.
Could you all please bear in mind that T-Mobile exists in other countries outside the USA? If you are referring to the US version of the phone, please specify (US) in your postings! I keep reading that The T-Mobile Version only comes in Grey [Gray if you prefer] and has bloatware problems. I have a T-mobile handset, it is black and doesn't have bloatware...
If you specify (US) in your postings, it will allow those of us from outside the USA to avoid those threads specific to your version of the phone.
Thanks in advance...
While I can see your frustration, the two phones are identical in terms of hardware and software, so aside from the posts you mentioned, what is the point in differentiating?
Oh? the non-US Tmobile phones don't have the bloat? cool.

HTC ONE S T-MO US:
Isn't it mostly USA carriers that insist on their own special versions of phones? Partly I suppose that's our horrible method of distributing wireless spectrum, but it seems like the carriers here have an attitude problem beyond that.
As an owner of a German T-Mobile branded one S I can confirm the existence of bloatware.
Therefore I unlocked the bootloader and used Superboot to be able to deactivate not needed apps.
BTW: I have the black one but with original HTC logo and not T-Mobile
I have a us T-Mobile one s and I have flashed all the international roms and they all worked fine these phones are the same.

Just to be clear for others who don't want to go down the unlock and root path, it's not necessary to do this to "deactivate" unwanted apps. You can do this in the manage apps options on stock unrooted One S.
Apps will disappear from memory, take up no processor time, bandwidth or battery, and disappear from the app drawer. They will still, however, take up internal storage.
The advantage rooting gives you is that you can actually delete the unwanted app from the internal memory also.

There are a few more differences in the software. TmoUS software has the WiFi Calling feature baked in and the Tether checks your data plan and redirects you to a Tmo webpage to sign up if you don't have the additional cost feature enabled.

It is codename Asanti and the model is XT898. Right now I know it will be for AT&T, but usually you can get an unlock codes for other carriers.

As long as the carrier allows them it should. Seeing as AT&T is the reason behind the Atrix HD not being unlocked, (hardware/software support it, just not the Unlock My Device page), I'd say the chance is slim.
There should be international version of the phone, from what I know (I don't know about AT&T version).
There should be one if only for the fact that this is the first high end QWERTY device I have seen in ages

That's too bad. Maybe we could've flashed the gsm radio to get that side of the Q working in the US, which I'm assuming is blocked by default.

Yup. Cancelled.

Very sad that it was cancelled. I used a GSM phone overseas (Captivate Glide), and it is silly that I need to use a different phone when home on Sprint.
Hello, I just upgraded my epic 4g touch to the nexus 5 on sprint. I was wondering if there were any differences between the sprint model and any other nexus 5. Can I flash any ROM on the forum? Is there anything I have to worry about with apns, kernels or modems? And I heard that people had to order sim cards seperately. Is this still true with the 16gb white model? Thanks for the help. I've been around sprint CDMA phones for a while, but this unlocked sim cardiness is all new to me lol
I suggest leaving sprint

Thank you. At least someone here can actually help. Just so you all know, sprint actually has the best service in my area and my plan is dirt cheap, so it wouldn't make sense to switch, not that I can anyway because it isn't my plan

You would only need a Sim card if you went to T-Mobile or At&t.
I didn't know that Sprint gave out the nexus 5 for two years on contract, considering its a contract free phone. But it will definitely last you two years. I don't really foresee some game changing features coming out with phones in the coming year (s5, HTC one m8) and you will have the best support by developers so you will always have the latest android version.

I just use stock ROM deodexed with xposed framework and use gravity box and xutilities. But I personally recommend purity ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...ment/rom-purity-rom-hammerhead-08-01-t2528265 or mahdi http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/rom-mahdi-rom-2-4-t2540455, I am not a fan of Cyanogenmod (they do excellent work don't get me wrong). Cannot really say too much because this can't turn into a best ROM thread but here is a list of every ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...dex-google-nexus-5-roms-kernels-mods-t2475401
fyi: if not using a Cyanogenmod ROM make sure the kernel is not CAF normally the thread will say what it is. You can also click on my signature and see the modifications I have done to my nexus 5 to make it my own.

"CAF is a custom Linux kernel branch in place to support Qualcomm hardware. By using a potentially heavily customized kernel (while AOSP Android uses the main Linux kernel), custom kernel developers will have to effectively maintain two separate instances of their customizations."

Thanks a lot
I'm also on Sprint. Here's what you need to do, when you get the phone just make sure the uicc (sim) card is in the phone so you can fully activate it. Otherwise you won't be able to get LTE. If you don't have it just go to a store and get one. That's it. All nexus 5 are the same, so feel free to dive into any sort of rom you like. If you do, make sure unlocking the bootloader is the first thing you do. You don't want to set the phone up all nice then have to do it all over again because it gets wiped when unlocking the bootloader.

With contract.. Meaning, whoever is paying the bill is paying for the phone in the monthly fees.
