Possibly enable LTE Roaming if you have your PRL? It's in the ##DATA# menu.

set priority #1 for band 4 in LTE settings inside the DATA Menu, you need MSL code to be able to do it

Thanks for your help. The att link you provided tells me that the device Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 LTE device AT&T offers is SGH-I497 whereas the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 LTE device that I am getting is gt-n8020
Per gsmarena samsung_galaxy_note_lte_10_1_n8020-5151 seems to support LTE but the bands seem different from samsung_galaxy_tab_2_10_1_cdma-5592.php
AT&T LTE seems to support Band 17 - 700MHz and Band 4 - 1700 MHz whereas the device GT-N8020 seem to support 4G (LTE 1800/ 2600MHz) and 3.5G (HSPA+ 42.2Mbps)
I suspect GT-N8020 will get only HSPA+ which is up to 4x faster than AT&T's 3G not LTE which is 10x faster than 3G.

I am wondering the same thing....
AT&T Uses: 1700Mhz Band4 and 700Mhz Band17. Samsung showing 4G/LTE 1800, 4G/LTE 2600. So my guess would be no. Still thinking this would be a better option than the AT&T version of the tab 2.
You find anything else out?
Curious to see if it'll work for a tmobile sim....

I am using the phone on a T-Mobile network. For the APN I have the IPv6 setting, for some reason the icon next to the signal bars is only H+ not LTE. Was wondering if that was just me? If is just me is there a way to get LTE? I know that this phone support LTE.
Thanks.
which model is it? (D68xx..) might not support the LTE bands that T-mobile has
which area are you located in? perhaps your area doesn't have/weak LTE signal

oh... damn just checked and tmo lte band is 1700 my phone supports 1800/2100.
Well that will be something I remember the next time I buy an unlocked device.

Indeed. Also of note, Tmo LTE only works on a more recent SIM. I tried a cut down 5 year old SIM and no LTE.
Thanks for the info!
I'll admit that I didn't do proper research prior to buying the unlocked device. After reading more into T-Mobile bands, they said that by the end of this year they will be releasing band 2 which is the 700mhz. Since this model supports that I'm guessing I can get lte?
Please clarify this for me. Thanks.
Hi Folks,
Just a quick questions, will T-Mobile Note edge work on Rogers LTE or AWS in Toronto? I am a bit confused with frequencies.
Thanks in advance.

Tmobile Note Edge supports Band 4 (AWS) LTE. It will work, just make sure your sim card is LTE capable.
Can someone please do me a huge favor? If you have a T-mobile note 5 and another Verizon 4g phone, and your note 5 is unlocked. Can you please pop the Verizon sim card into the note 5..
I have Verizon service and can't switch anytime soon, but I looked up the specs on the Verizon and T-Mobile Note 5 and they have the same bands. I want to buy an unlocked T-Mobile Note 5 so I can have root, but I need to make sure it will work on Verizon first.

I thought Verizon didn't use sim cards? I read somewhere that Verizon and Sprint phones can be used with Att/Tmo but not the other way. Could be wrong though.

Theoretically you could but only for data not sure if Verizon will let you. calling requires CDMA which our phone does not have. Attached Verizon specs.
Data works great. Just no calls nor text. Tried it for myself

Is there no way to force VoLTE on Verizon for calling and messaging? I was just gifted an unlocked T-mobile Note 5, but I'm on Verizon.
I have no idea. I traded the phone away a couple days ago for a edge plus
Ya I am in same boat as you , I'm waiting for my note 5 tmobile to be unlocked , I will let you as soon as possible , 1 to 2 days hopefully
Tested mine with the latest update, temp unlock method selected. No dice with VZW, but I could access ATT service, so I know the unlock was successful.

No. Not that I am aware of. Volte is registered on vzw sides and requires an approved phone to activate. The only option you might have is a close to stock vzw note 5 rom

There is no such thing as a Verizon Note 5 rom.
So far the Verizon Note 5 phone is not root-able at
all, check out the Verizon Note 5 XDA forum and
see for yourself.
None of the Verizon Samsung Note 5 or the Verizon S6 Edge+ phones are root-able.
(just like the AT&T Note 5 and the AT&T S6 Edge+ in xda forums are not root-able.)
But in any case Good luck, and have a very Merry Christmas.
Hi Guys, I recently bough a TMO note 5, previously I had a Sprint note 5 and I used it overseas and worked fine on UMTS 900.
I did not know that TMO note 5 has not access to UMTS 900 as the Sprint one had... is there any way I can flash a modem so the TMO note 5 can recognize UMTS 900 or is it hardware based? :crying:
I was reading that all version have identical Hardware, dont know it flashing an alternate rom or a modem file might enable umts 900 or if I can enable it via service mode (Don't know the code to type and access service mode :crying
Regards.

Thanx!!! sadly It does not show 900 band So I guess it is hardware related.
Thank you for your support!!!

Hi, I don'd understand what you mean by which band number is 900mhz ?
All I see are 850,1900,2100, 900mhz is supported by sprint's note 5, assuming they share the same HW with tmo note 5, I thought of enabling 900mhz somehow but using the code you gave me I dont have 900mhz listed, maybe flashing another modem ?
Well you need to look closely... you need the 900mhz WCDMA band... which would be referred to as "WCSMA Band xx", for instance here on T-Mobile, LTE band 12 is the 700mhz band that has good building penetration...

Under the menu you'll want to see that WCDMA is included in the list of bands, for instance, "LTE,GSM,UMTS,WCDMA,TDS" ......
