Dear friends, I have Nexus 5 but 4G doesn't works . My service provider supports 4G service at 800MHz and 1800MHz as it shown here http://www.gsmarena.com/network-bands.php3?sCountry=Morocco , but my nexus 5 d 821 does not work with 4G, I want to ask that if there is a solution like a roms or others things.
Thanks in advance.
800MHz and 1800MHz are LTE bands 20 and 3 which are supported by your device but those information are for Morocco. Do you have the same information from your carrier?

Do you have a map that could show you the cell towers around you?
Is LTE enabled in your phone settings? (preferred network type)

hey Mate,
i have Got the same problem just like you.
i have a white nexus 5 (D821) 32Gb version.
i can't connect to 4G network,unless i'm near the 4G tower.
sometimes the phone loses signal and switches to ''emergency calls only" mode even when i force switching to 3G by typing *#*#4636#*#*
If anyone you kno how to solve this problem or anyone else here do,could you possibly help me out with this.
i'm from méknes by the way.

hi friend, nice to meet you
i will try to give you a summary of what i reached in the end.
first thing, i discovered that the nexus 5 that i have is not a D821 but it's a D820 means it's the version especially for USA networks, and this mean that 4G of USA networks works on different bands than ours in Morocco, so after finding exactly where the problem, i began looking for a solution and i found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/radio-enable-lte-band-3-nexus-5-d820-t2928561 and after application the lesson, i got the 4G connection on my phone, and it's work very well till now.
this is my story, and i think it's a little different than mine.

i'm glad you answered.
and i'm glad you figured that out and solved your problem.
my case is somewhat different from yours.
before enabling those bands,you never caught 4G signal.
but for me,i do get 4G signal and connect to it,i access internet data, surfe,and make calls,but it's only when i'm near a 4G network tower.
which means the band is already activaed,it's just a deal with the signal strength.
if you can help me,i'd really appreciate that.
i'm really confused wether to flash those drivers or do something about the radio,cuz this problem brings about another problem which is battery drain,
my battery drains faster cuz the phone keeps searching for network.
just to let you know,when i go to bootloader it says Lg nexus 5 D821 (H)

Dude,you won't believe this !!
i just removed the back cover of my nexus 5 and was freaked out to find out it was actually an american model D820
thought the fact that in fastboot mode( bootloader) it says it's a D821 (H)
and guess what ! that (H) confused me and made me doubting it to not be a global (indian) version.
i guess i need to flash Some bands to get my LTE working properly.
thoughtless it's working but only when i'm near a 4G tower !
please help me.

hey bro!
how are you doing ?
i hope you are fine[emoji4]
sorry for this long escape ( been so freaking busy with exams and preparation )
i really am confused with this device !
i thought it to be a nexus 5 model D820 because it can't catch 4G properly , then i removed the back cover and found it's A (D820) then went to regulatory information like you said found it's a (D821 )
went to fastboot mode found out it's a (D821 {H} )
i'm freaking confused.
i used an app called ''LTE Discovery'' to identify which bands my phone uses to connect to 4G when it catches it, i found band 3 and 7 !
do i still need to enable any additional bands like 7 or 20 to get 4G working properly ?
waiting to hearing from you soon !
sincerely,
Zackaria.

what concerns us is what there is within the system and not back cover, so depending on the picture attached and what you said, the version D821 should run 4G, because the bands necessary are already exists. did you tried other SIM cards ( maroc telecom, meditel, inwi ) ? what did you get ? the same problem ?

i'm using ''maroc telecom'' thought i tried other Sim cards nothing has changed.
i tried inwi. it works well !
i don't know if i still have to activate any additional bands like band 8 and 20 ?
i talked to the guy that have posted the video in youtube and said that i need to activate band 20 if it isn't activated yet.
then talked to developer ''azlun'' who first succeeded to activate band 3 and 20 and said that if band 3 is already activated , but 4G still doesn't work properly , then i need to activate band 8 and 20 which is impossible due to hardware limitations.
what i really need to know what bands are used to connect to 4G in morocco ?
i already have band 3 and 7 activated.
if i have A D821 what others do i still have to activate ?

as i know in morocco, the telecom companies use 1800 Mhz and 800Mhz for LTE connection, which means bands 3 and 20, so the global version D821 has bands 3&20 already exists,and the two of them and you don't need to enable any bands! take a look here: D821 LTE bands : 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800).
did you do this step ? calling service client of "maroc telecom" on 888 and tell them that the 4G doesn't work on your phone, and the will activate 4G connection for you, although you have a 4G SIM, you have to call service client of maroc telecom on 888 to ask them to activate LTE connection

like i said,
my Sim card has already 4G network.
i already called them.
the problem has to do with my device.
now, you just said Nexus 5 Model D821 has band 3 and 20 enabled.
and i tell you i used an app called LTE discovery to find out which bands my phone uses to connect to 4G i found band 3 and sometimes band 7.
if it's the global version why it doesn't use band 20 ?
maybe i need to enable band 8 or 20.
imma call service client f maroc telecom tomorrow and ask them which bands they rely on.
then, imma be taking the next step.
i will really need your help bro.

Hi Hyelton, thank you for your reply. The phone does too, its listed on the specifications and it picks up the band and the network when I do a manual search for available networks. when trying to connect it connects to the HSPA+ network not LTE. I believe this is a limitation that ATT might have added. I need someone help me remove it.

AT&T would NOT have a limitation on it. If you do a network search and it comes up, and fails to connect something somewhere else is wrong. Make sure you have the correct APN?
The APN settings have been checked and work fine on a note 3 N9005, somethings up with the d850, can someone help with that please
the phone does, the speck says, roaming 1800 on the att site and even the lg specs say it does. the but i think the stock rom on the att d850 some how prevents it, please help

It probably will work but it won't work well, especially with T-Mobile (no band 12 or VoLTE). Just wait m8

T-Mobile has to certify and allow the phone to work on band 12 or else it won't be able to make 911 calls. They've verified the US S7 but I don't think they verified the international version.
Hello there,
Well, I can confirm that LTE Discovery App shows the LTE Band 12 working with T-Mobile. I have walked around the building where I work, and it switches back and forth from Band 4 to Band 12.
Hope this helps someone asking if the Samsung Galaxy Exynos International Version SM-G930F works with T-Mobile LTE Band 12 !

it's frustrating that others have said recently that band 12 is NOT supported. what about wifi calling?
Hi there !
I belive that WIFI calling and the reduced Internet speed while on a phone call, are the two things that are different on the Exynos. Tell me how to check and make sure WiFi doea not work and I will try for you. I have tested the second one, and indeed the Internet speed is way reduced when talking on phone. Depending where you are, it is either H+ or 3G.
Hope that helps !

i believe there should be a setting for wifi calling within the "more connection settings". if it's not showing within the settings, then it's not supported.
as for band 12, how reliable is that app you used? a lot of people have mentioned that band 12 is not supported on the exynos model, so i'm really curious how yours has it.
thanks!
OK, there is no WiFi calling setting under there.
As for how reliable the App is, I have no idea, sorry. I searched and found it was mentioned in XDA for checking this kind of settings/capabilities. I will take a screen capture of it once I am in a building and it is showing the band used. My understanding is that LTE Band 12 is particularly good and improves signal inside buildings.

The Internattional version does support band 12. and it works, however for VoLTE you have to find a firmware that has it which is hard. the Czech t-mobile firmware has VoLTE but no WiFi calling
The "F" international version also has Band 17 for AT&T
why do people who DON'T have the phone act like they know what they are talking about.
Works fine on T-Mo, and ATT. you just miss out on some of the bands, and also carrier features like VoLTE.
my 930F works fine on Tmo. and it'll work fine on ATT as well.
Recently, I got a AT10 version of mate 8, 64GB/4GB version.
Now I'm using EMUI 4.0, got an update when I first launch the phone (Android version 6.0)
No unlocking bootloader, no rooting.
And I'm using AT&T in Texas.
So far I never saw 4G/4G+/LTE on my phone.
Sometimes H/H+, sometimes just 3G.
The highest download/upload rate I could get is around 7.5MB (in H+)
If it shows 3G, 1.5MB only.
Anyone knows what's going on?
Any solution?
Thanks in advance!
Check what 4g bands your network privoder offer in your country. In uk for my provider is 800 and 1800 but I now have 4g and for next 2 hours no 4g. Maybe signal coverage is bad. First lunch 4g at your phone and find option aggregation band is somwhere in settings and swich off. It helps me in my nxt al10

You see 4g on switcher should be enable
According to this information, it should work.
As gimbu said, try to check 4G option.
Till yesterday I have 4g rare. Now I have from 24hours all of time after switch off phone and switch on with power button and vol down key. I dont know if exactly it helps but it working now
Thanks a lot for your help.
I live in Texas, USA. Definitely AT&T has LTE in this area, no problem with my old G2.
-------------
UPDATE: I went to an AT&T store yesterday, they helped me set up again, now I have 4G (App can recognize as LTE).
The download speed is around 11MB/s, upload for 7MB/s.
It seems AT&T staff made some mistakes when porting my number from my old phone to my new Mate 8.
Also some people mentioned about APN setting, that could be the error why I didn't have 4G and AT&T staff made mistakes.
Again thanks.

Hello,
I have a Samsung Galaxy J2 SM-J200F LTE, I usually just get 3G or H+ and I want to get an option to force LTE only.
I did the *#0011# it shows me the service menu :
1- I click the "Plus" button on top-right.
2- I click "Back".
3- Then input "Q".
4- Then "Back" again.
5- Finally input "0000".
I waited for 5 minutes, nothing happened. I repeated the process many times, but still I can't get to the options to choose "LTE only".
PS : I tried *#2263# too, but it shows nothing at all.
I even tried the app "4G LTE SWITCH" . But it says that my device is not compatible.
Please guys, help me.
Is it compatible with the carriers lte? Just because it says it has lte doesn't mean it will work on every carriers lte.
Also if all you are getting is 3g or lte then you may not be in lte coverage.

Yes, it is compatible with the carriers LTE bands, and there is a strong LTE coverage because I tested it in another phone having the same carrier too.

You dont want that. As LTE is a data signal only. If it was only LTE you would never get a phone call or text.
If it is not connection the LTE then my next guess would be that the antenna is not strong enough.
Remember not all devices are equal. Just because one works doesnt mean others will.

Then you will have to build your own rom. Which still might not happen as the part that controls that is not open source. So it will take alot of work. And with that device you will most likely not be able to do anything about it as it is not modable and there is no device that even has the option for you to compare the code.
This is just something you may not be able to do
He wanted to enable LTE only mode. . .so there's a way you need to modify CSC features. .I tried this a year ago. . it's still working

I love the phone and the size but only getting H+ sucks. Has anyone tried to unlock the 4g bands?

I tried. Not possible. I got all the way to putting in the new values in the phone, but when you reboot it they go back to default. There is a fail safe in the kernel preventing it. need a custom kernel to do it successfully. Here is the thread that I was discussing back and forth with another member:

I am having no problem using 4G in Canada. I bought my phone in Malaysia.

It all depends on the band the carrier is using. The phone doesn't have all LTE/4G bands unlocked. So if your carrier is using a band that is available on the phone then you are golden. For me the only band the phone has unlocked that AT&T uses for LTE is band 5. Half my city is band 5, and the other half is 2 and 17. So in the band 5 areas I have 4G, and in the 2 and 17 areas I have HSPA+

The LTE bands in the U.S. are blocked. Back in the day we had same issue with the original Samsung Note 1 - in was only built originally for ATT. Eventually folks built roms/kernels that did the trick on T-MO.
So here's to hoping the same thing happens w/ our ZF3ultra

Could anyone provide "rfnv" files of Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra?
I trying unlock bands for Leeco Le 2 X520 so "rfnv" files of Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra will help me a lot.
