Enabling LTE bands - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way to enable ATT LTE bands on the n910f? I've searched and couldn't find an answer.

XDA members are working on this for US variants of the Note 4. After finding a solution for US variants, it should be easy to venture into the international variant as well.

I thought AT&T LTE bands were 2, 4, 5, and 17. Doesn't the F version work on those out of the box?

Got a xiaomi redmi note 4g LTE to play with but unfortunately device only supported FDD-LTE band 1, 3 only. Needed band 2, 4 and 7 to be able to work with tmobile USA LTE network. Any ideas on how to add those values to the phone?

No you cannot unlock bands. Bands are hardware based.

the hardware was supported. It's a Snapdragon 410 chipset with 4G LTE world mode. it's Xiaomi who didn't add those bands into the baseband modem. I read some XDA threads about unlocking all LTE bands for Qualcomm Snapdragon chips but I couldn't understand how to add thoae NV values and how to get into the USB settings mode in my Xiaomi device. I need someone with experience to look into this and maybe make some step by steo guide for us. Its been done b4 with oneplusone, oppo, Sony, LG, Samsung phones with success so I knew it could be done.
ok i could be wrong. My friend just brought a moto x to australia and used a process or update to open up some more bands on his phone .

The ROM actually unlocks more LTE bands?

Don't know if you're still wondering, I found out there are two versions of this phone. One is Chinese the other is a Hong Kong version. The Hong Kong version comes out of the box with compatible T-Mobile 4g lte band.

Oh, and as for ROMs unlocking lte bands. I would try the MIUI 5 global ROM. I haven't had a chance to test myself yet but, I would give it a shot. It's the ROM the Hong Kong version comes with out of the box.

I'm sorry, I'm not too familiar with lte bands outside of the US. However you should check out this forum for the Redmi Note 4g. It's where I got most of my info from.

I'm still not sure it's possible. I've searched and most people say it's hardware based and ROMs can't change it. If you're already rooted and have custom recovery, you might as well give it a shot and report back.

Same problem here. My carrier uses a LTE frequency not supported by phone. All other carriers are supported, mine is not, frustrating. Installing Mokee (or any other custom ROM, I tried them all) doesn't change a thing. I don't know about MIUI, but don't think it would work.

How is it going now? Have you successfully unlocked B7
I want to unlock B20 and went through all the steps from this guide but no luck
But I did LOCKED B7 which is available originally on my Mi NOTE (dual-sim) to see if the value I set into 6828 is working.
you can have a go to unlock B7 I think

Yotaphone 2 Frequency and Radio Firmware - AT&T

Hey guys -
So like many of you, I reflashed my two Yotas to the latest RU Lollipop and was wondering if there was another radio firmware file that might wake up the AT&T US LTE bands. Any thoughts? Has anyone tried flashing the different radios to see if you can get a 4G LTE signal stateside?
Thanks,
Rootdude

HSPA+ can be sometimes very good - 3-15Mb/s - what is your speed at the moment? can you check through speedtest.net ?
At&t firmware
I have around 3.5 mbs to download and 0.6 uploaf. Too small comparing local 4G. So, can you help us?
I do not think you can change that easily, there's a thread talking about changing Radio Bands but the conclusion I got from the reading is that it does not work, at least with current "user" knowledge, YD206 is from China or HongKong, and some of those LTE Bands can work in Europe, not so much on the USA, the bands that USA telephone companies are very different than Europe or Asia, and as such YD206 IS NOT compatible with USA LTE bands. UMTS can have much higher upload speed than the ones you posted, so it might be your network problem, don't know if they are any better in LTE over your region.
Should be possible
Qualcomm 8974 supports all LTE bands. We just need proper modem firmware for US bands. Method in those threads definitely doesn't work since Qualcomm introduced some hidden filters inside firmware
BTW, there is lte_prefferedband file in the modem folder of Yota EFS. Does anyone know how to edit it?
That might be a anti-tampered code against our NV changes
Ok, I found out. For AT&T we need qcn file from Yotaphone 2, model 205. I don't know it such thing exist on the market but this reference says that it might be compatible with At&T.

interesting thing is that YD205 model was never launched, so it doesn't exist at all, unfortunately. The inquiries about future developments of this model were negative...

LTE Band 4 (Aws) Support

Hi.
I have a Galaxy Note 3 base model n9005XXUGPQB1 but i want support for LTE 4 AWS band (because the 4g company in my country works in that band).
I read about a modem firmware in Odin. But i don't have a lot of information (And i used the search but nothing it's clear).
Can you help me, please? I'm using right now Resurrection Remix according to this topic: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...p-nougat-holy-grail-hlte-rock-stable-t3630301
Thank you

Yeah, I know that topics. But they don't have any explanation about my issue. What modem firmware i need to install? Why?
Thank you for your links but i need a little more help.
Install the modem for your network.
Don't work. Other ideas?
Thanks

Why not just activate the band 4 LTE in the service mode on your Note 3 SM N9005 ?
B4 (1700/2100 AWS 1), this frequency is used for North America as well as from South America.
It may be necessary to modify the feature/other.xml file in the CSC once the activation is done.
Because that mode don't work in Resurrection Remix. I'm trying to return to the stock firmware.
Okey. I activated the band with the *#0011#, back, input "Q0" in serviceMode. (Main Menu -> LTE -> LTE RF -> VZW LTE B4 on/off -> B4 Enable.
But my 4g is still don't working. If i search for "LTE favorite band" i saw a lot of bands except for Band 4.
Where is the problem? Thank you
