Well after trying cm10 for a while I decided to come back to synergy because it was still a bit buggy. Now however I cannot seem to connect to 4g. None of my imei stuff was changed it just appears that the LTE is broke. Any ideas ? Thanks in advance.

Try Phone Info from the Market
In device information goto set preferred network type.. LTE/CDMA/EvDo
Thank you good sir. That will probably do the trick ( out of a 4g zone right now )

Go to the dialer and dial
*2767*3855#
I tried that and it got my 4G back. It will wipe your phone tho but will still be on the same rom

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
E = E

make sure u are oon a touchwiz rom, then it should work
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.

Ensure that 2G networks are not only selected - try *#*#4636#*#* and select ' phone' and go to the bottom - GSM/WCDMA Auto PRL or something like that should be selected.
Also, try *#2263# if you have the Rogers modem and change the band to automatic mode that way. You can't use this option with the AT&T modem.
Lastly, you are currently in an HSPA or standard UMTS zone with good coverage, correct? EDGE will display sometimes with a stronger 2G signal where 3G/HSPA are weak.

I am having the same issue on AT&T. After playing around with Infused 2.1, I reverted back to the stock UCKD5 baseband and build, and I cannot connect to HSPA/HSPA+ anywhere, even with excellent coverage. I confirmed all of the GSM/WCDMA auto (PRL) settings, but cannot get the phone to connect to anything other than EDGE. Any ideas?
Umm...
I would guess try the newer modems and see if they work. If they do not then do a full restore. Other then that i have no idea. Does anyone know if it is safe to be on the infused rom then flash a modem like the original onto it?
Flashed the original factory AT&T ROM using Odin (unrooted version)...phone works great but still no 3G/4G, and a very poor EDGE signal. I have an AT&T BlackBerry which has a booming 3G signal in the same area. The AT&T store installed what they claimed was a 4G SIM card when I purchased the phone. I wonder if the infuse needs to be "re-activated" to work with HSPA?

That won't start until September or October.
Are you sure?
Are you sure? Because for me i went over for a little bit and my speeds became extremely slow. Anyway, back on topic, does anyone else have any ideas?
Fixed it...to get HSPA/HSPA+ back, I did a "software format" using the following dial code: (this will wipe your phone as soon as you type it!)
*2767*3855#
After it reset, the H+ icon appeared after a few seconds.

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!

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
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
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 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.

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 a similar problem, but much worse. I'm in South Korea and my phone ONLY uses 4g (no 3g or other options to check). After a failed rom and kernel flash, I nandroided back to stock but my 4g won't work, only wifi does. My Access Point Names says "LG U+" with "internet.lguplus.co.kr" underneath. There is no option to change it or edit it, just a radio button with no other options (is this is fine?). As for mmsc, I dont' know where that option is to change it, or if this is a problem (I was advised in another forum to change it's value).
As for the "Phone Info" app:
In Telephony, have a Device ID, my Network type is 3, Sim State 5, it shows I have a SIM operator and country, Serial Number Subscriber ID, etc. The only things that MAY be strange (I don't know what their original values should be) are that Call State, Data Activity and Data State are all 0 and my Network Operator Name, Network Operator and Network Country ISO are just blank. Even if I wanted to change any of these I have no idea how...

sure it does if when doing your research like I did on mine I see it works on Band 4 which is T-Mobiles band for LTE. I get speeds up to 36dl and 19up with my ONe.

But I think I got it figured out - You are right it works in LTE - when i had 4G on screen i used the app you send me link for and that app shows LTE as network. So the bottom line is that 4G stands for LTE in stock rom and it is possible that Nexus has a stronger radio than One so in some areas i do not get LTE.
Anyway Thanks a Lot for your help - got a little worried ( Got the phone just yesterday). I think i will keep it stock for a little while before i will root it
The radio performance seems the same for me as my N5, I'm living in NYC.
Do note that "LTE" on a Nexus 5 is displayed as"4G" on the OnePlus One. Ensure that your APN is on T-Mobile 4G LTE IPv6 (fast.t-mobile.com), for some reason when I started my phone it was on MetroPCS instead.

But I think I got it figured out - You are right it works in LTE - when i had 4G on screen i used the app you send me link for and that app shows LTE as network. So the bottom line is that 4G stands for LTE in stock rom and it is possible that Nexus has a stronger radio than One so in some areas i do not get LTE.
Anyway Thanks a Lot for your help - got a little worried ( Got the phone just yesterday). I think i will keep it stock for a little while before i will root it

nah root it its more fun that way and fyi they just came out with an update to 4.4.4 stock from what I have been reading. I saw this posted in earlier.... I guess you will be getting an update soon.
One suggestion if you plan on rooting and unlocking bootloader I suggest doing it now since it will wipe everything when rooting... There is a method where you wont lose data but it will not unlock your bootloader

To OP: How old is your SIM card? Have you ever received LTE signal on a previous device? I receive LTE on TMobile 4G perfectly fine, I just wish the "4G" showed up as "LTE" as my Nexus 5 did. I guess I could personally go skin it to say LTE instead but its just cosmetics.
And I completely agree with unlocking the bootloader, even if OP doesn't have any intentions to rooting/flashing, at least do it now so when you do decide to do it then you will be able to back everything up without having your device get wiped.
Edit: OP also go into dialer and type in *#*#4636#*#* then go into phone information -> scroll down -> under set preferred network type: LTE/GSM auto (PRL).

Thanks for all the info - changed network to set preferred network type: LTE/GSM
My concern is llosing warranty, every phone i had was rooted - this is just new toy so I am concern about loosing warranty
In your experience what is the best way to unlock/ root - saw few all in one tolls on the forum - any advise
PS: how can Thank to all of you for help?
Found the thanks button - thanked all of you Guys for help
I thought the same thing (coming from a Nexus 5). I was worried that the OnePlus One did not support LTE but it definitely does. For some reason Cyanogen did not include a separate LTE icon as what's found on the Nexus 5 and most other LTE capable phones.

For sure its weird how they didn't adopt "LTE" and used "4G" instead. You can always go and change it to "LTE" with some apk hacking. Pretty easy to do.

So does your phone get "4G" now? You can verify in Settings -> About Phone -> Status -> Mobile network type -> should be LTE if the top right says "4G"
The best way to unlock/root is to NOT use a toolkit. Yeah a toolkit is easier, but honestly unlocking a bootloader is not hard and the skills you obtain by doing it yourself are important. You won't lose warranty, you can always relock it and use the bit mod and OnePlus will never know. Plus OnePlus encourages the whole custom rom scene since thats why they have a Development forum on their official forums.
Just follow the guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2788632 if you have any problems or questions, just ask here and I'll help (or someone else can)

I called AT&T to have the IMEI changed over to the OPO since I was on the Nexus5. CyanogenMod doesn't technically come with LTE icon, personally I can careless but it does look nice at top lol. And you're correct on my device under Mobile Network Type it shows LTE but icon on top shows 4G.
4G is LTE
H+ is HSPA+
3G is ... 3G
edge is edge :crying:
The first speed test in my sig is my LTE speeds using my OPO... Pretty typical, maybe a little faster than my old Galaxy Note 2. :good:
how does one change it to the LTE symbol?
I'm just curious. If you know 4G means LTE, whats the difference if it says LTE? Not trying to be an A-hole...just curious.
If you run the CM11 nightlies on the OnePlus One the phone will show LTE in an LTE area. Only the stock CM11S shows LTE as 4G.
I would think that people on xda are more well informed.
Carriers like to change the official terms to make you "buy" into a "technological" leap.
Most of the roms outside North America uses 4G (instead of LTE). This is all about marketing.
HSPA(+) are 3rd generation networks while LTE is the 4th generation.
back in the day:
iPhone = edge speed 2.75G
iPhone 3G = HSPA 3G (7.2) speed
iPhone 4 = HSPA+ 3.5G (carriers in north america tried really hard to change this to 4G)
iPhone 5 = LTE 4G
See this article (how At&t tried to play this game)
search on google as i m not able to post links yet.

I agree fully with Line 1 - especially here we should do more homework before posting...
my oneplus signal is terrible compared to my n5

mine is better then g2. Do note that your phone may or may not have the bands your provider has for lte. This you should have checked before you got the phone.
Also delete apn and reboot.
If it works better something went wrong there. If it doesnt check your providers website if setings are all correct.
If they are you might need a new sim/ or lte enabled via your provider.
