I wondered if anyone know how to change a band on note 5. I try to use my AT&T SIM card into version phone, but sometime lost a signal.

I have a Hero h2000+ and have t-mobile (CROATIA) for my network and for some reason it's always stuck on EDGE mode on their network. I know this phone supports up to 3G but can never seem to get that corrected. I even manually setup the APN and still nothing. Would like any advice on how to resolve this issue. Thanks.
P.S.
Yes I did put the SIM onto the WCDMA slot.
no idea?
Hi All
I have a problem, and don't really know that to do. I have a Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4g, rooted, running the latest nightly and modem. Recently I went on vacation to Europe and while there used local sim cards from t-mobile Eu. At first nothing worked, Then I read some forums and from there learned of the *#*#4636#*#* code. Used the Select Radio Band option and switched to the Euro band selection. All was well Europe SIM cards worked Data, voice everything.
I get back to Canada, and I figure I need to switch back to the USA band. So I do. but still no service, no voice or data. I can get roaming. but that's not really an option. I see the network operators Bell and Rogers, but no Wind or Mobilicity(who use the 1700 band). I'm on wind. So to me it looks like the 1700 mhz band is turned off on my phone.
So far I have tried...
Used the *#*#4636#*#* multiple times switching bands...
Tried using the settings menu to select wcdma preferred or global
Re-flashing the modem
Flashing to the newest nightly
Tried a verified good SIM card
Nothing works....
I'm thinking I may have to go back to the stock t mobile software and try to turn on the radio there...
So does anyone have an idea what could be missing? Or how to specifically turn on the 1700 mhz band? The select radio band pop up only has two options Euro band and USA band.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Okay!
So I think I'm back up and running, all AWS networks in Canada show up. Haven't tried data or voice, but I'll be doing that on the way home from work...I'll post after if things still don't work...
So these are the steps I took....
1. Using CWM I did a full back up to an SD card.
2. Then using CWM I flashed the stock JB firmware from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41209211&postcount=1
3. In the Dialer app. I dialed *#197328640# navigated through the gsm,lte,wcdma options and set the band selection to automatic.
4. Tested phone on stock to see if it picks up the networks...and it did!
5. Using CWM restored my original cyanogenmod install with all settings and software.
6. Tested network connectivity again, and the networks now show up.
On the way home I'll do some tests with data and voice.
Looks like everything works! woot!
It looks like there's a bug in the band selection code. It should be offering you the AWS frequencies, as well an an automatic everything choice.
I'll look into a fix for apexqtmo. In addition, I will nuke the CDMA options, they're not needed and probably causing other problems.

This phone is the first phone Verizon is selling (except the iPhones) that has the 1800MHz LTE Band (band 3).
When I saw this I was particularly excited as I visit Australia often and that's the band Telstra uses. I am currently in Australia now, and I am unable to pick up any LTE on this phone. I have gone through every possible mode in the phoneinfo app, but none will get any LTE signal.
I am using a Telstra SIM that has LTE service and I put in the correct APN settings.
The only possible explanation that comes to mind is that Verizon is blocking the 1800MHz LTE band from being used, just like the S4 came with AWS but only a software update pushed later on was able to unlock that band. If that were the case, is there any way around it?
Any other ideas why it's not working?
I tested my SIM in the same location in a iPhone and it got lte

Bit of a necro-post, but I asked both HTC and Verizon associates and they said that it should work...so don't know if some bad information has been passed my way or GSM/LTE is just being funky (I do remember reading that has been, or was, a problem)
Hey Guys! please help me out!
My oneplus one has a issue for a long time. I live in Turkey and using a network provider named "Avea". With di.3.0 alpha baseband I get no reception no matter what I do, however its like a bug. my sim service trying to reconnect every 5 seconds like in loop.
The issue is: In my country we still have 3G not LTE. and still in many areas beacuse of our networks are so not strong our phones got Edge signal. The problem on my opo is I only have 3G, my 2G band is lost. My GSM band is lost too. If choose another prefered network type instead of 3G my network is lost.
I guess this loss of bands on my phone, DI3.0 baseband modem is not working too. How can I bring back my 2G and GSM bands ?
Hi
Maybe you can help me.
I used my M808 2 years. In 2 days i can't call and sms and don't have internet when i have 3G or 4G. When i force 2G i can call and sms. In 3G i can see range but i cant call to anybody.
Do you have idea how i can fix it?
I done hard reset and nothing, I try my SIM card in other smartphone and there i had 4G ok.

This could be caused by a few things.
1. Hardware fault.
2. Your carrier (SIM Provider) switched to a none supported band or bands. The M808 does not support LTE band 20 (800mhz) which is common in Europe
Supported Network Bands:
(2G) GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz
(3G) WCDMA 850/900/1900/2100MHz
(4G) FDD-LTE B1/B3/B7/B8/B28
3. APN settings although this would not affect voice calls
4. Your carrier Decided to block your phone by IMEI from using anything other than 2G and yes they do sometimes do this O2 did it to me some years ago now with absolutely no warning or reason given so I will never ever use them again the arrogant s****
5. Duplicate IMEI someone is using a phone with the same IMEI as yours on the same network. This can cause all kinds of strange stuff to happen. Again happened to me when I restored the incorrect backup. Both mine and my sons phone ended up with the same IMEI . It took ages to work out what was going on with that one
I would suggest you first try another sim card from another provider that use's the supported bands for 4G (3UK) if in the UK it used to work fine on my Old M808.
I done some tests.
I put my sim card to other phone - everything is ok.
I put other provider sim card to my phone - only 2G is working properly.
I done flashing - no improvement.
Im afraid hardware fault.
Any more sugestions?
