Let me preface this by saying that I have searched and searched for an answer, so if someone is able to point me to a relevant thread that can fix this issue I would be super grateful.
I have a rogers XT925 which I have managed to put the 4.4.4 P.A. firmware on after flashing to the RTRF KK update. I love this ROM (although I am a newbie to customs) and all seems to be working fine, but I have not been getting LTE service since the update. The best I have is H+ right now. Rogers is my carrier and I was receiving LTE from the stock JB firmware. I talked with customer service and set up the proper APN (found the info online, but wanted to verify it through Rogers). I have messed with the settings and put it to Global for network. I also did the #*#* thing and made sure it was set to LTE as well. Still nothing. I can only imagine that it is the modems that are not correct, but I don't really know. Has anyone else had this issue with P.A.?
Any one have a possible solution?
Thanks
I don't think the retail France modem supports Rogers LTE. You may need to try the BR modem but if you can't do that or it does not work you may be stuck waiting to see if Rogers ever releases a KK update to use the official modem before it will work again or try to downgrade back to JB.

I have the SGH-1727r from Rogers, unlocked, currently running Superlite ICS 5.0.
I have a working Rogers SIM, and a working T-mobile sim.
I will be traveling to NYC next month and want to be able to use the phone there.
Do I need to flash a custom modem or rom or anything else to make sure it works?
Hello I've been viewing for a while haven't posted cause I've had no real solid input or questions but after some in-depth searching for a few weeks I simply cannot find a way to get LTE with Telus and the skyrocket.
I don't want to flash the Telus radios in this area of the forums because it's made for the T989d. That radio will only give me HSPA+.
So I tired flashing the latest Telus S3 radio and for a while I was getting LTE fairly regularly except the baseband version in about still showed the original version for Rogers and I have no idea if it actually flashed.
I recently flashed Slim Bean 4.2.2 v4.2 and it's running great and so I went to flash the S3 radio again and about still doesn't show the new version, yet according to TWRP the flash was successful. I have yet to see LTE since flashing just "H" and "H+".
Is the S3 radio really any different from the skyrocket? and if so are there any Telus LTE compatible phones similar (WRT the radio) to the skyrocket that I can take a radio from?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
First time posting, long time reading.
Having issues getting LTE/4G access on my Samsung Note 2 on the Vodafone network in Australia. I am currently running Hashchcek v2.5 ROM on 4.1.2, have a baseband of N7105TDVALK2 and using saberkernel.
According to Vodafone the baseband version N7105TDVDMB2 should have been pushed out with their update to 4.1.2 to allow LTE access.
Does anyone know how I go about getting this latest baseband or getting LTE as a network mode option?
Do I need to obtain the latest CSC/modem and flash with that? If so does anyone know where I can get this from? I have had a good look around and can only find the old Vodafone CSC which I am currently using. Can I just use the Telstra Baseband?
Or am I way off and someone can point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Installed the following and so far so good. Not in a 4G area ATM but will update once I have done some more testing. So far the 3G speed tests are noticeably better.

Before I begin, I'd just like to say that I've reviewed numerous threads regarding this topic, both here and on other forums, and I have yet to find a single conclusive solution to my issue, which is why I'm posting.
I recently purchased an AT&T D800 G2 off the internet because I was informed AT&T uses the same frequencies as Canada's Telus. This is true, and the D800 runs on my Telus frequencies with 4G and 3G HSPA, but I found one annoying niggle (besides all the useless AT&T Bloatware that I can't remove), and that's the fact that I can't update my software.
Namely, it's the infamous "Not Registered" issue that the D800 gives me whenever I try to update. I've tried several fixes, but none have really helped me. I'm still running 4.2.2 JellyBean, Software Version D80010o. IIRC, latest JellyBean version is D80010q, so that means I'm not even running the latest JellyBean version.
I've read about one fix that I have not yet tried, and that is to use an Active AT&T Sim to try and allow it to update, since AT&T pushes out their own updates to devices on their network. Since I live in Canada and AT&T doesn't exist up here in the North, I was contemplating getting a GoPhone Sim (Their Prepaid division?) off eBay and using that just to get the Update. Would that work?
And if not, are there any ways of getting KitKat, and, later down the road, Lollipop without going down the Root path?
Thanks in advance, guys.
I don't know how to fix the ota issue, but you could get it on kitkat by searching for the d80020c tot file on xda and flash it with the lg flash tool. Just take the sim out during this process, I've done this and killed my sim.
Huh, okay.
I've definitely seen some threads that recommend flashing a new ROM.
The thing is (newb question)I rather like the LG Optimus UI and I'm not sure if flashing these things would revert me to vanilla android. Would it? I have no experience and since I don't have a warranty I guess I could try root if it would help.
No, it would install the kit Kat firmware provided by AT&T.
Sent from my LG-D800 using XDA Free mobile app
Awesome.
I'm just glad there's a way to bypass OTA issued by At&t.
Thanks for all your help!
P.S. Would flashing the ROM void warranty?
So i got a Galaxy s7 from rogers here in canada. My model is SM-G930W8. I'm wondering how/what are the effects of flashing ROM on this device? Rogers is super slow with their updates, im still on their April update, and it's in fact the only update they ever put out. So if i flash a stock rom onto this phone, will i get the updates directly from samsung? How does this all work? Also if yall are too lazy to answer can you link me to like a good Q&A thread that would answer my question?

Well, I'm no expert in that area since in my country there aren't any carrier locked s7 devices. But I'm guessing that flashing a different stock rom might not be a good idea because you might lose some features or in the worst case scenario, your phone might not boot up at all. So, if I were you I would root my phone, search for a custom rom that's as close to the stock one and which can be flashed on Canadian models.

If you flash a rom from the dev section you won't get any updates since the phone will be rooted, you'll have to rely on newer roms from the dev section. You'll also lose volte/wifi calling from rogers.
Now if you flash a stock telus rom and have a rogers sim i doubt you'll get updates either but who knows, only rogers is holding up the update, every other carrier already pushed out the july update.
