Hello,
I've been running more than one ROM on SGSIII and I can confirm that CM10 (build 8/28) provides full service globally (data + calls)... Beans ROM and CleanROM worked for calls only since there was no simple way to edit APNs, they also had problems with com.android.phone, its was FC.
I flashed CM10 build 8/25, I got data but whenever I make or receive a call the phone freezes. Yesterday I flash build 8/28, and everything is working fine on it. I can make and receive calls normally, and I can use 3G as well.
Just wanted to let you know in case you want to use the phone on a network other than Verizon and you don't want to go through all the steps in the Development Section.

Hi,
You said you can use 3G as well, would you mind which other (Non-Verizon) GSM carrier you used and were able to get 3G working? Was it a US domestic carrier or a foreign carrier?
Thank you
Wish I had this phone in Nov. Just back in May from a westpac cruise

Yeah, what provider's SIM are you using? Is it AT&T or foreign? Also, did you need to change APN or it automatically pulled it in? Exactly what ROM are you using?
For real mayne let's get some more info!
I mean, I've been able to use T-Mobile and AT&T's SIMs in my Verizon GS3 since day one, stock TouchWiz, and now CM10, BUT NO DATA. I've always been able to make calls and text messages, but you can't touch the APN settings, so no data. Am I missing something? How did you get data to flow?
I'm using it in Lebanon, specifically using MTC Touch network. It is GSM and the frequency I believe is 850. I read on some Lebanese forums that they use 2100 as 3G frequency.
I'm using CM10 build 8/28, on previous builds, data worked but on calls the phone used to crash. On 8/28 it is working perfectly. It just doesnt show the signal strength in the notification bar.
I didnt even have to update the APN, they were pulled automatically.

Oh wow! So a foreign SIM will pull in the APN settings! My AT&T and T-Mobile will get me EDGE where it says UMTS. But in your case the signal is not reading at the notification bar, and it lists Verizon Wireless.
This means SGS3 is already unlocked for global carriers!
I assume the future update will just fix the signal reading and allow us to change the APN.
Thanks for your post!
no it is not unlocked, it didnt work on stock. CM10 unlocks it.

On stock Voice and SMS was also unlocked on domestic. With CM10 I get the same voice and sms. Data is a no go except for international carriers. I have 08/28 build and still no data for me.
If it is anything like the Rezound, it comes SIM unlocked from the factory, but the stock TW framekwork may not support the full GSM capabilities yet. CM10 doesn't sim unlock it, it just adds the missing code.
What part of lebanon are you from? im From tripoli myself, have you tested this on alfa at all?. id like to know if i can use my phone when im there next month I have an alfa sim tho.

it should work on alfa as well, I only tried with mtc in Beirut.
Did you have to make any changes to the phone settings or give unlock codes? or was it simply swapping the SIM card? I'm looking to do this on future travels to south America. For example looking to work on Movistar Venezuela (GSM 850 and HSDPA 1900
Hi, did signal bar work at your end?
I flashed the CM10 M2 recently but signal bar appeared blank(so signal at all), and -120dB at status in settings (both EDGE/HSPA/GSM)
Even though I can dial someone, strange.

Try CleanROM, install APN Manager Pro and convert it to system app in Titanium Backup, and you're ready to go to edit your APN settings.

If you plan to use a GSM SIM flash the AT&T CM10 version. You have to change the name of the device from d2att to d2vzw in the install script or CWM won't let you flash it.

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

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

Change the Apk to ltemobile.apk, will work fine
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.

I have it flashed to AT&T right now and am using a friends T-mobile sim card that we cut down to fit into the SCH-i535 GS3... it seemed to sync with the towers and get mms.. text.. calls... and internet... just not 3g... I would like to know if someone has found a fix to this issue...
Thanks for your time.
Why not just flash the Verizon Jellybean Rom (Cleanrom or Jellywiz) since global mode was enabled in that Rom? Then drop your tmo sim in.

Useful thread so far, but I have a several questions.
I currently have a Verizon Galaxy S3 SGH-i535 with a T-Mobile prepaid sim card (unlimited everything), I can call and text, but cannot get any network access.
I'm currently running Clean Rom 5, settings on Global. Is there any way I can enable data, preferred 3G? [due to that T-Mobile will get 4G on Verizon phones next month).
On CM10, I get Edge and can receive text, but cannot send text. Tried APN settings, etc. Is there a fix for this?
I have tried everything, but no luck. Any suggestions is appreciative

So what I did is i unlocked the bootloader... rooted it... and then flashed the AT&T stock rom on it and then plugged in the TMO sim card and then changed the bands to GSM auto. and it picked up edge... I was able to get access to the network with data... but the only catch was that it was slow as hell... as it was only edge. I am still working on programming to get the i535 on the tmobile bands... thus far I have not been able to get the phone on 4g or even 3g yet... I will keep you updated though.

have you tried using the hidden menu in the dial pad at all??
There is an app out there that will get access to the menu and allow you to change everything in the phone... but be very careful with this app as it can and will brick your phone if you do not know what you are doing with the app..
Netmonitor --> look for this on the google play store
To change the bands to at least get data on the phone, follow the instructions below:
1. install Netmonitor on the S3
2. open the app
3. hit the menu button
4. select field test
5.select UMTS
6. Select DEBUG SCREEN
7. Select PHONE CONTROL
8. Select NETWORK CONTROL
9. select BAND SELECTION
10. Select either AUTOMATIC or GSM Band Preference
* if you choose automatic the phone will look at the sim card and go from there to get the phone on the network to get data on the phone.
11. Select GSM ALL
This is the thread that I am following at the moment to get the phone on HSPA+ or 3G.. If you have anymore questions then please let me know I will do my best to help you out.

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
As the title suggests, I no longer have connection to LTE services, beforehand I could get full signals.
I downgraded back to cm11s, and installed the previous XNPH44 modem, still no luck.
I have also tried XNPH33, 30 and 25. I have even tried the ColorOS modem as well as the M9.
Furthermore, I have tried the *#*# secret settings, currently it is on LTE/WCDMA. I can reach H+ connectivity but still not LTE.
I live in Australia, and am with Vodafone. Meaning Band 4 is the one I need to connect to, (1850mhz I think.)
Please advise on what I should try next.
Thanks.

Haha, you're not much help are you.
As written above I used to get full LTE coverage in my area. I even included the LTE band that the LTE broadcasts on.
It is also confirmed on Vodafone's website if you want to have a look.
Is your issue similar to this thread or do you simple just not have LTE, only and never get it on CM12?

Its only LTE that I don't get, but it was only after I updated to CM12. I reverted back to kitkat right now and I no longer get LTE.

No you didn't, you said you used the *#*# setting which is NOT the same as APN setting in the Mobile Network settings. Before insulting people do your homework.
APN worked!

Thank you!!! I have had my OnePlus One on cm 12s for about a week and the LTE has never worked since I upgraded. Just H+ works. And more than that - it keeps turning the H+ (3G) on and off which I think it's really killing my battery life!!! I have been trying loads of things to get my battery life back to what it used to, huhuhu. Turns out my APN got set to T-mobile somehow! I have Red Pocket mobile GSMT which runs on T-mobile and I always got LTE with it till the upgrade. (I'm in USA.) Just had to switch the APN from T-mobile back to Red Pocket 4G. The LTE works again and never cuts in and out!
:good: :good: Thank you! :good: :good:

Go in your apn setting and change your bearer to lte.i guess its set to unspecified right now.
Hi guys, this is my first post so please be easy on me. I have an unlocked Sprint Note5 that I use on Tmobile network right now. I added the 'fast. t-mobile.com' APN and have mobile network working. BUT ONLY 3G!! The fastest I've gotten so far is about 10 Mbps or so, and usually it's just 2-3 Mbps.
My question: is there a way for me to get LTE on this device with Tmobile? Or it's hardware/software impossible? For the simple reason of Samsung Pay, I'd rather not root my phone. The Samsung Pay has given A LOT promotions so far and I prefer to keep it.

I was in this same predicament. You have to choose LTE.
What worked for me was choosing LTE/CDMA mode from Network Mode and then when setting up the APN, there should be a section at the bottom that says 'Bearer'. Click that and choose LTE. After that LTE started working for me. You should also be able to switch to Automatic Network Mode after this.
so is the phone already unlock
OMG, it worked like magic!! Who would know to choose LTE/CDMA knowing that Tmobile uses GSM. Many many thanks!! All of sudden I'm getting ~50 Mbps v.s. the 2 Mbps 3G speed. This is NICE!

I bought the phone at full price at Best Buy and it took me a while fighting with Sprint to get it unlocked (I was with Sprint at the time even). According to their unlock policy posted online, the phone should be automatically unlocked already if bought at full price. They honored that but it just took forever and so many departments to get it done eventually. You'd have to be tenacious about it. I plan to do a factory reset with tmobile sim in to get rid of all the Sprint bloatware.

Hi everybody, also my first message here.
I got the same problem, but a little worse. I bought a SM N920P unlocked by mistake (from ebay) as I didn`t know that Sprint was CDMA. I live in Brazil and there`s only GSM carriers. It works here for voice and data but can only get 3G (up to 8mbps) while my other phone (moto e 4G) goes up to 30 mbps. And if I choose LTE/CDMA it goes offline .
And worse, it always trying to activate and receiving the message 'activation not completed'.
I wonder if I root it could it be turned from N920P into N920i or any other.... is it possible?

Have you figured this out yet? For me, you had to choose LTE from the "Bearer" setting in the APN settings. Not only Network Mode.

Hey I'm on Verizon note 5, and I haven't found a fix yet. However, u can follow my fix here.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3280342
last post in the thread. I've found a way to enable LTE, until a phone call is made, then u need to switch back to cdma/LTE until LTE pops up, then switch it back to global. It's a solution, but kind of sucks.

fix for all your issues.
This is the fix that worked for me but, you need to have your MSL code for the phone...everything works for me LTE MMS everything.
youtube{dot}com/watch?v=5tBeKAGkc1Y
As far as to remove hands free activation..your phone needs to be rooted and follow this guide since this method worked for me.
youtube{dot}com/watch?v=-SEVcT9FJvw
You need to put it back to auto after you get lte to work. This allows it to switch between the two when you are making calls or online. If you keep it in lte/cdma, your gsm carrier will not wotk.
This worked for perfectly for me! Thanks foruonlyfrom007 for the advice to set it to automatic. Now i have LTE and can make calls with no issues! And by the way all you have to do is download package disabler from playstore to stop the activation, no root necessary

Yes I was able to get mms working perfectly simply by adding port 80 as the mms port.
My only problem now is that mms only works when I am not connected to wifi. If I receive any mms I have to disconnect from wifi and then tap it to receive it.
If anyone knows how to make mms work with wifi too, please comment and add @textbook.
