Probably bevause when it was released, 4G was prevalent in India.
I know, it has 3 bands of 4G, none currently used in India, so no way to use 4G in India.
should we not sue HTC India for selling a device with false pretense? When I called HTC, they said their devices are country specific. If so, why is HTC advertising it as a 4G device if it cannot be used even in India?

Thought so too, but their website clearly says 4G only available while roaming. So we'll have no ground. And the clearly mention which bands too. I don't remember where they advertised it as a 4G device too.

I have a 4g enabled Airtel sim (ported recently from vodafone) and it shows me only H or 3G.... I have switched the bands to GSM/WCDMA/.....LTEAUTO and restarted the phone also.... but speedtest.net shows 1.5mbps speed only...
Edit : I changed the band using *#*#4636#*#* and upon reboot the band returns to GSM/WCDMA/CDMA and EVDO (PRL)
Anyone know how to make it stick ??
Also, i am on locked bootloader, non rooted and 5.0.2

As far as I know, none of this will work until htc sends an update to enable 4G, like it did with the M8. It initially didn't support 4G, but an update was sent to enable it. That brought LTE under the options in network, whereas we have only 2G, 3G and CDMA. LTE should be there for LTE to work.
Also, from what I've heard via someone close, htc isn't considering the update, for them, E8 in India doesn't support 4G.

Hello,
I've an HTC E8 Dual Sim (from India) with software version 1.25.720.3. I would like a confirmation and some user experience that this phone works with European/Belgian LTE frequencies, especially 1800 - band 3
Indeed, according to my mobile network provider, the 4G is enabled on my simcard, but even if I'm supposed to be in a 4G covered area (and after restarting the phone), the mobile settings does not display the LTE/4G choices (I only see "Global mode", "CDMA Mode", "GSM/UMTS" choices).
Does anybody here can confirm he/she can use the same phone and access 4G/LTE with the same frequency used here in Europe?
Thanks in advance.
Yes it can
I face the opposite of your problem I have only 3G on my country but my phone support LTE so I will upload my TWRP backup of my rom to exchange it with TWRP backup of your rom if possible please confirm to start uploading [emoji4]
Hi guys recently reliance jio in india launched new 4g service with 4 GB daily free usage for 4 months and unlimited calls for free. they only provide service to 4g lte phones.I know that I will get only 3g speed but that's not a problem. Is there any tricks to use 4g sim on 3g phone. I tried dialing *#*#4636#*#* and selected lte but the menu comes back to wcdma . is it possible to do system changes to trick the phone that it's network is 4g.I use cm 12.1 rooted. If any one can help it will be awesome.

In no way you can change the frequencies if phone's modem doesn't allow you. It's not just faking the icon on status bar.

It just just unlocks available bands
If your modem does not have LTE band then its useless
It unlocks all bands which the modem supports nothing more

Idk... maybe the hardware supports it but needs some software changes ... like driver ...
My device (lenovo a3000h) apparently doesn't support 4g but there is "LTE" option in network type in "tablet information "...
I don't think that you can do that.
If the network only uses LTE bands, there's no way you can get '3G speeds' or use your SIM card in a phone that doesn't support LTE.

I tried to find what's the difference between 3g and 4g devices but couldn't find what i wanted ...
maybe both have the same hardware but 4g needs different software and stronger processor ...and they locked it in weak phones to prevent crashes...
how can i unlock my Sprint AQT80 to work on any LTE/CDMA newtork?
plz help and thanks in advanced
Getting jio signal but not registering on network
"Your sim doesn't allow connection to this network "
I installed HTC phone.apk (v 8) from apk mirror..
(By installing this I lost control over second sim but got option to select LTE in menu )
And settings (v8) from apk mirror ..
I was using reliance 4g sim ..(not jio)
After searching networks manually
I got jio but didn't got register
Any help
Will I get jio network if I use jio sim instead of reliance
Ellaborate
How did you get that 4G option?
Tellme ill try it with my jio sim...tks
I really don't know
I installed HTC phone apk v8
Restarted phone
And selected GSM/WCDMA/LTE in mobile network
I got jio network (not registered though)
Now I got jio sim but I'm not getting network..
Really pissed off
I think there is some kind of lock protecting to get 4g on this
HTC messed up with CDMA and LTE
Because when u select LTE only it switches slot to CDMA and we cannot scan network manually
Modding phone apk to disable CDMA may work I guess
Anybody got success in running Jio on HTC E8 Dual Sim?
Tried alot to get jio sim working.. Got the sim generating bar code somehow many tricks are given, sim is activated already got the message on registered number,but still unable to get any signal for JIO, Thing is HTC has done such cruelty by locking the 4G LTE, dnt know why they do it.. Same thing with my Sony Xperia ZL, In India they lock the 4G, WTF why they do it !?

You need to find out what lte bands your carrier uses. And make sure they are comptible with the sprint varients lte bands.

If what I've read is correct, Sprint Note 5s have the same hardware and radio band capability as the international version. So a hack or something should be possible. But how or what is way beyond me.

I have honor 6X indian variant.My 4g connection works fine when I am using Reliance Jio carrier sim card.But when i switch to my vodafone simcard i am unable get 4g data speeds.I am able to view vodafone 4g network and connect to it.But when i turn on my mobile data i am only getting 2g or 3g speed.I have talked with customer care , rechecked my vodafone internet settings they all are fine.Vodafone is set as primary sim and 4g is enabled.Even my subscription plan is 4G plan i have checked.Can anyone help me to resolve this.
Update : 11/09/17
Yesterday i got update BLN-L22C675B340 , after installing there was no immediate change. but today since morning i am able to connect to 4g network all right. Don't know if it was due to carrier issue or phone software issue but its has gone away now for good.
Maybe you live in an area where Vodafone have no band of LTE that's compatible with your device
im using idea 4g. i do get 3g speed sometime when there is no 4g signal but at my home i alway have 4g i got good signal at home.

So this makes my conclusion a logical one, Vodafone doesn't provide a 4G band that's supported by your device in the area where you live!
