If the Rom is based on AOSP (including AOKP), the developer should be able to add an LTE on/off toggle. When you find the ROM you want to install, first read the OP, then search the thread, and if you still cannot find an answer, just post in the thread and you should get a quick answer.

Unlocked Rogers SIII, using TELUS microsim

HI,

I have Rogers Unlocked SIII, however when I put in my TELUS microsim I only get 4G speeds. When I put the same SIM in my official TELUS SIII (I have two lines) I get LTE. I have tested them in the same spot for many different locations, same thing. Do I need an official TELUS SIII to get LTE working?

I also tried flashing the Unlocked ROGERS SIII with an Official TELUS SIII Rom. In this case something peculiar happened. When the microsim was inserted I was only getting HSPA and HSPA+ speeds.

Please advise.

Also on a side note, the Camer Gesture does not work on the Rogers model??????

Please help, I do not know much about modems and stuff or the intricacies involved in this type of stuff.

Hey all you guys on Rogers, check out this new deal as of today, good until August 8th.

http://www.rogers.com/web/content/wireless-campaigns?cm_sp=wireless-pre-_-6gb-en-0712-_-slot4

All this for $60/mo±. Includes all monthly fees!

•6 GB of data 1

•Unlimited Canada-wide MY10 calling 2

•Unlimited messaging 3

•Unlimited 6PM evening & weekend calling 4

•200 weekday minutes 5

•All on Canada's first LTE network 6

I called and because I signed a new 3 year contract on SGS3 launch day, the first rep said I wasn't eligible. I am on a 3GB, $72.13 plan. She also said I'd have to pay an early cancellation fee. Say what? I promptly hung up, called back and got customer resolutions this time, and they put me on the new plan. So twice the data for even cheaper. So any of you looking for more data on our LTE hungry devices, see if you can get on this plan. Obviously, some of you may already have a better plan but for those of you who do not, give it a shot.

While not specifically i747m related, I thought I'd post here because most of you probably signed a new contract within the past month and *should* be eligible if you get the right rep on the phone. And like me, you may have a lot less data,. May as well get more if you can, and make use of the LTE.

Bell/Virgin New Promo Plan 6GBs!

Woot! Summer Promos!:

Bell and Virgin have decided to match Rogers new promo of the $60 plan with a new 6GB data addition.

http://mobilesyrup.com/2012/07/18/virgin-rolls-out-new-6gb-60month-plan/

Bell Matched Rogers and changed the Data section from 1GB to 6GB and it also ends August 8th.

I have the $60 Fab 10 plan and I phoned Bell's customer retentions line and they gave me the data increase for free!

So phone them up and see if you can get the new data for free as well.

Virgin's offer is quite amazing adding an additional 100 minutes to your anytime minutes and unlimited pic/video/txting for all of North America and International! sent and recived!

I recommend anyone who is already with Bell or Virgin look into getting the addition data as it feels very limiting to have such an amazing phone of our S3's with LTE and not have the data to really have at it!.

I belive Rogers is also allowing people to get the additional data if you phone their retention lines as well! It just all really depends on what you currently have with your carrier, but doesn't hurt to try and see!.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] hbk19:
I flashed it as soon as it came out. The only thing preventing it from becoming my daily driver is the lack of LTE connectivity.

Anyone else on Rogers able to get data back? I had the correct apn as well, but had no luck. There were fixes for the camera (and the latest build has audio fixes, though I haven't tested yet).

Thanks.

LTE to 4G drop loses signal

H Guys,

I have an official TELUS S3. I have an issue with my data connection. For some reason I will be in a LTE zone and everything is fine. However when the LTE signal is not strong enough or i move out of the LTE zone, the phone should drop to 4G, which it does for the most part. However I am having an increasing amount of situations where instead of dropping to 4G from either an LTE zone or when the LTE signal gets weak, it loses data connectivity altogethrt and I have to disable and reenable data for it to connect to 4G.

When I turn LTE off, the 4G signal never loses connectivity. Any ideas on why I am losing connectivity when signal is dropped from LTE to 4G (but in my case I lose data connectivity altogether).

My sister also has the same issue with her S3. I called TELUS and everything is correctly provisoned in their end. Samsung tech support said to call TELUS. TELUS advised me to take into a TELUS store for repair if needed. But unless my sisters phone has the same defect, I really do not know.

Any thoughts?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] timbit123:
Yes settings > More Settings > Mobile networks > Network mode > GSM / HSPA (Auto mode) OR HSPA only.

that's what I do on my side and its work very well.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] moiza67:
Yes, thats what I have done and it gives me a "4G" signal that never loses connectivity, but I would like to keep it on GSM/HSPA/LTE (Auto mode). So that I can use LTE when it is available to use. However the the latter option when it loses connectivity to LTE it is supposed to fall back on 4G (HSPA) but it doesnt it just loses data altogether.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] timbit123:
Maybe will be fix on a patch. for now, there is nothing that we can do

READ THIS PLEASE !!

I'm coming with a new ROM made for [Bell/Rogers/Telus] for now it only have deodex, su, toolbox, zipalign, vlc, latinIME and I remove some samsung apps and memo, suggest... etc

i'll stay with stock rom for the reason that aosp, cm, etc are not fully optimized for the Galaxy S3, I mean we are loosing, smart stay, sbeam, wifi direct, etc....

ALSO, I need you to find a name of this ROM :) SO suggestion are welcome !!!

**please stay realist of mod suggestion because its almost impossible to play in the code of those roms. So I can implement what have been already done for now.

**NOTE TO ANYONE RUNNING ANY LTE DEVICE ON BELL (PROBABLY INCLUDING TELUS, NOT SURE) **

If you experience SOS or NO SERVICE randomly on any LTE device, this happens when the device tries to switch from LTE to HSPA when LTE coverage is low or unavailable, you will need to do a battery reset to restore service. Preferably, change your network settings to WCDMA or HSPA only via settings>wireless & networks>mobile networks>network mode.

Bell has attempted to fix the issue with the network already to no avail, so they are continuing to work on it. This is not an issue with your device, just the network.

Also instead of pulling the battery out you can switch to hspa only and then toggle airplane mode. This will re register the device on the network.

Rogers did not have a 6 gb lte for $30 plan when i got my s3. Had a 10 gb for $50. When they first launched lte they were letting folks with the old iphone data plan flip to lte. My point was if you had the old plan you could flip it to lte data without have to either pay more or get less data if you ask nicely but insistantly.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bjtheone:
Anyone on rogers seeing call failures with the error message "your sim will not allow this call"? I have had it happen on 3 seperate occasions. Once it happens all call initiations will fail with that message. A reboot resolves the issue.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Wirelessgirl:
You don't need to ask nicely. Well, it would be nice if you ask nicely but no begging is required. If you already have the 6gb smartphone data plan, it's already LTE enable. Unfortunately I had the 6gb BIS data plan and there was nothing they could do, so I got the 10gb lte data plan for now. I can switch back to the 6gb data plan when Rogers offers it again. I'm sure they will when the iPhone5 comes out.

I read in an earlier post it's an issue with Bell and it's not your phone. So anyone with Bell, Telus and Virgin will have these issues. I'm with Rogers and when I'm not in a LTE area, it drops to HSPA with no issues. Once I'm back in an area with LTE, it goes back to LTE with no issues. I hate Bell and Virgin, but I feel sorry for you guys. I hope they fix the issue soon.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] zexco:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Wirelessgirl:
I can't explain that because I don't work for Rogers. It's possbible when some of these people called in, the CSR didn't know about it.

It's NOT uncommon that CSR's are wrong. I have been with Rogers long enough and know that a lot of their CSR's weren't trained properly

or they don't know what they're doing. As for Bell and Telus, can't speak for them. I'm talking about Rogers.
