Now that Moto G LTE is announced, could it be that our chipset support LTE and is disabled and by flashing right radio patches we might also get LTE? Nexus 4 could do it too this way.

need to answer too
Maybe there is a chance because Moto G has the same hidden menu *#*#4636#*#* like nexus 4 and there are the same options about LTE.
LTE
hello, there is the option of LTE, but when I select it does not fix ...

I wish people would stop quoting the nexus 4 as if it's some kind of successful miracle.
Yeah it had LTE 4g but it was bloody useless to 99% of people as it was only band 4.
Like the nexus 4 ours is probably missing the modem and antennas.

Of course no. but for people who got it working got additional benefit at no cost. So i thought its an interesting idea. (that's the XDA spirit )
Also it seems the chipset does support LTE out of the box.
Of course its a complete fail for me cause 4G in India is TD-LTE.
Edit: It seems the chipset supports TD-LTE too. Cant wait to get Moto G with LTE launch

Upon using my Straight Talk Nexus 5 with an AT&T sim, I noticed the data connection displayed LTE, which I've never seen before on Straight Talk. Is anybody else noticing this change? As far as I can tell on their website they still only support up to 3G speeds...I'm using the tfdata APN.
Here's pictures of LTE in the status bar as well as my speed test with two/four bars:

Is this a new thing or does anybody know what's up?
EDIT: after looking further into it I saw people have been getting LTE on the Nexus 5 with Straight Talk since the 15th of November withe new AT&T sim card and tfdata APN settings. I'm still curious however as to why LTE is just kicking in now instead of a month ago when I got the phone, with the same setup.
It's been a few months they started offering Lte service

ST has been supporting AT&T LTE since release of their "new" SIM cards which use the tfdata APN. Not knowing where you live, I suspect AT&T just rolled it out in your area.
Are you using the ST recommended APN settings, or have you modified them slightly as some websites recommend?
This.... The main reason I moved from Note to Nexus 5. Very quick. The other change they made recently is to be more clear on data usage. I think it explicitly states 2.5 GB now before throttling. Be careful with that LTE!

I'm using the recommended APN settings from apn.straighttalkbyop.com, for zip code 53095, although now I am curious of what changes are recommended, and their benefits?

I don't think I've ever gone a month without reaching 2.5 GB on straight talk....
It's not enough!
Anyone get a txt from ST today about an update and to reset you phone? I reset my phone and my wallpaper changed, they add proxy and port back to my APN. Anyone get this or just me?

I didn't get anything like that.
So my oneplus one occasionally drops from the mobile network. It happens almost daily and it just says no internet connection, no signal bars, no LTE/H+/anything. Only fix is to reboot wich is annoying. Has anyone reported this. Have unlocked and rooted with super-su, no modifications. I wiped cache and dalvic cache with no help. Used the phone few days and it's a constant problem.
I read about one guy with the same problem. He couldn't find a solution though.
Very helpful post..
I have the same problem but no solution yet. dbm values get very high 22453576 sth like that. You tried a different modem?

Lose the attitude. Maybe there is no fix for it, he was letting you know that. You should be thanking him for taking time out of his day to try to help you. How ungrateful and rude could you be?!

Try another sim card. While unlikely, it's still possible it causes the issue.

If there is no fix, that means one thing: RMA.

Had similar Problems (With my international OPO)
Flash this radio! It worked for me
I have the same problem and I think it's my sim card.
Had the same problem with my HTC One, and now with OPO.
It's the same sim card so it could be what's causing it.
Not a SIM issue (I think)

I was lucky enough to be able to buy 2 1+1s. My wife has an older SIM with no LTE support - great signal.
Mine has LTE, but like above, shows very high # signal in status screen, but signal goes from high to low to no signal. I tried wife's SIM, full signal all the time.
I'm in Canada on Fido (Rogers). Great LTE speeds when it works tho.
I am having the exact same problem, seems to happen when i charge over night on wifi and then after i unplug it in the morning, mobile signal drops . Mobile data section in settings also disappears. Not sure what it could be.
Now that you mention it, I did lose cell signal yesterday. I put it down to being in a bad coverage area, but once I got home it was still dead. Rebooted and it was back up to full bars...
I get it but it comes back if I use aeroplane mode on and off.
I'm in a well covered LTE area and minevnever gets higher than this. Also drops to Edge most of the day.

Judging by the fact that your picture very obviously lists several LTE bands, I would wager to guess that yours is an LTE variant.

Just realized you said iPhone there. [emoji33] Not an "apples to apples" comparison there (pun intended).
Did you verify that the settings inside the APNs match? Same exact carrier and plan? Data roaming turned on/off? A LOT of variables here...
Some ROMs display 4G, and others show LTE on the same network and APN. It could depend on your radio version, as well add internal carrier provisioning settings too (accessed through a dialer code).
Some custom ROMs will let you change what is displayed on the radio icon as well. But that's semantics.
Try a speed test to actually measure throughput.

I just bought my Mate 8 with build number NXT-L29C636B103, but I have been experiencing mobile data issues with my T-mobile carrier that only when I get 4G symbol, I can go online. Whenever I am getting either 3G or H+, I can not connect to internet at all.
I have tried my wife's T-mobile phone, at the same location, her phone will get 4G LTE, my phone will have 4G, whenever she is getting 4G, I am getting H+ or 3G, which I can not go online anymore but on her phone, it still works.
Is is because of the version of the Mate 8 I am getting or the setting is wrong, please help. I have 5 more days to return this phone if it does not work out. (I really like this phone a lot............)
These international devices do not proclaim signal as LTE, they call it 4G. Most devices do not maintain LTE while phone's on. Signal strength varies from device to device. Use more objective measures such as signal strength meters and speedtest.net app. I have the L10 version (Chinese) and do get LTE. What color and ram you have?

What program are you using to display network speed on your notification panel ?
That's a setting in the phone settings - notification panel and status bar - you can set it there and also take out the carrier name out of there.

Did you figure out if your mate 8 is catching LTE and if the speeds are comparable to native t-mobile devices?

No still have the issue.
This is the international version L29, without anything like rooting or roming done too it.
Sent from my HUAWEI NXT-AL10 using Tapatalk
NXT-DL00 here on T-Mobile in the USA. No problems using 3G/H/H+
What is the best network setting to use for the Mate 9 (MHA-L29) in the US? I'm on AT&T, and it defaulted to "LTE/WCDMA/GSM Auto". The other options are "WCDMA/GSM Auto", "WCDMA only", and "GSM Only".
Should I switch to GSM Only since I'm on AT&T? And would that effect LTE? This is the first time I've purchased an international phone for use in the US, so thiso r anything else about this situation is welcome! Thanks!

Yes. That means that it would switch automatically. If you select any of the others you will lose 4G. Unless you have bad 4G reception or otherwise have connection problems, there is little reason to move away from auto.

Not that I'm aware of. However I'm not a US user so I guess I wouldn't know anyway.
On Auto, the phone will (should) detect the network type and respond accordingly.
An app like Network Signal Info will tell you what you are connected to.
I'm using the Chinese version in the USA on the t-mobile network and everything works fine.
