I did some research but didnt quite find wt im looking for, my question is, I flashed my verizon LG Revolution to metro Pcs, and most of the time i get 1x signal and some times I get 3g, can this device work under metro 4g? since it is a 4g phone from verizon.

Anyone else not rocking out a data plan? Being a poor college student and being on campus where constant wifi is available, why need data haha?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compuw22c:
Using that same logic you don't need voice or sms, or a sim or plan at all. Personally, I'd rather have it the other way around. Get a DATA ONLY plan for an iPad/hotspot, month to month, no contract, $30/3gb, and use Google Voice and GrooveIP for free voip calling. More features, and cheaper than whatever you pay now (guessing $45+maybe sms?). Or go tmo prepaid for 5gb/$30 if it's available in your area with 3g (edge blows). To each his own but it seems you've chosen the worst solution for the money.

the speeds arent THAT impressive, but considering that i was only getting on average 5-7 mb down,

this is a HUGE upgrade.

I managed to get a couple speedtests in before the network disappeared. These were taken near Pearland, which is just south of Houston, Tx with a N4.

@Milan I've been lurking in the threads over at howards, you seem to be well versed in this subject. Perhaps you know why i cant seem to stay connected for more than a few minutes.??:confused
[Nexus 4 General] milan03:
Neither can I. The LTE network isn't commercially live and T-Mo simply doesn't want us on it. I have no other explanation. They've had the security system implemented for a while, and if your device isn't provisioned for internal testing, you shouldn't be on. There is too much information we can gather from it, the amount of bandwidth used, frequency, and what they care mostly is the speeds. The speeds are their selling point, money makers, and what we're seeing when we connect is nowhere near what T-Mobile would like to have talked about.

To prove my point, remember the GigaOm, TmoNews story that popped up about 10 days ago covering my speedtests from Astoria, NYC, with speeds up to about 18mbps?

http://gigaom.com/2013/03/15/t-mobiles-lte-network-spotted-hiding-in-the-urban-jungles-of-nyc/

http://www.tmonews.com/2013/03/t-mobile-2/

Well, the next day T-Mobile called in a Press Briefing with CNET, LaptopMag, Verge and Engadget writers and setup an internal 2x10Mhz LTE cell site in NYC to showcase their speeds that were 62mbps.. http://www.cnet.com/8301-17918_1-57574614-85/t-mobile-equips-galaxy-note-2-with-fast-4g-lte-powers/ They've embargoed the story until monday morning at 9AM when all four blitzed the media. Bravo! :good:

Bottom line, they extremely care about their image which has been hurting, as their CEO has been announcing the best network since sliced bread. My speed tests weren't very hot and they had to prove their point.

[Nexus 4 General] milan03:
Wait, you're the one that said that lte.tmobile.com APN works and you're getting 7Mbps Up/Down. Were you joking?
[Nexus 4 General] skyrocket727:
i've noticed that some people have H+ what does it mean? mine always says H and average speed is around 12mbps which i find pretty fast for my needs although i wish i had better ping :laugh::laugh::laugh:

and btw i mostly spend my worthless life in Manhattan :D
[Nexus 4 General] dr.devman:
probably on a stock rom possibly?
[Nexus 4 General] djdanska:
I have friends up in Grafton, WI i visit and I've noticed they expanded the 4g a LOT but now it appears grafton is just one big 2g dead zone. (Literally! on https://maps.eng.t-mobile.com/pcc-retail-default.php ) Just odd that they would take away a LOT of 2g coverage that's always been there!
[Nexus 4 General] bakedpatato:
HSPA+ implemented on TMOUS as HSPA-42mbit. People call it HSPA-DC(Dual Channel)as well. Normally means faster speeds although the best I've seen on H+ is 14mbit.
[Nexus 4 General] dislplin01:
This is in San Francisco I did have my LTE on but as you can see it's not getting LTE it's on hspa your 1900mhz band has probably been upgraded that's all, if you get LTE you should be seeing higher speeds
[Nexus 4 General] bakedpatato:
SJ is going to be a launch market in three days so it makes sense SF has it too.

From what I've been reading over on HowardForums, yeah when they install the 1900mhz HSPA gear it's probably LTE ready as well. From what my 3GS is showing me, I have 1900mhz HSPA here in LA but I doubt it's getting LTE for a long time...I remember it took almost a year until I got H+.
[Nexus 4 General] 3oudreaux:
F.M. 2351 between 45 and 518.

To connect you must have either .27 or .33 radio. This radio breaks in call audio on AOSP based 4.2.2 roms. You need CM 10.1 based rom to keep that functionality.

Flashable Zip for radio

Go to settings>more...>mobile networks>Access point names

click the 3 dots and "New APN"

APN should look like this

Name- "Lte"(or whutever)

APN- "fast.t-mobile.com"

APN Protocol- "IPv4/IPv6"

I put APN roaming protocol to IPv4/IPv6 also.

Then go to dialpad and type *#*#4636#*#*

select Phone Information

where it says "wcdma preferred" change it to "lte only"

Go back to mobile networks>Network Operators

It should come up with one that says tmobile if all is right.

Cross your fingers and let me know if you have any luck.

[Nexus 4 General] Stryder5:

I updated to the latest bootloader then downgraded back to the 33 radio and didn't have audio during calls. This was before updating my APN for LTE though.

Hey all. Been lurking on XDA for ages with my old phone and since getting my N4 about 3 weeks ago.. but FINALLY had to register so I could post. LOL!! Can't say enough about the amazing community here for our phones. Thanks to all the devs and fellow android enthusiasts.

That being said I'm also in the Clear Lake area with a N4. Mine is running 4.2.2 stock and rooted. I'm debating "downgrading" to 4.2.1 stock/rooted (I did a NANDROID backup before doing the OTA update to 4.2.2)... and downgrading the radio.. BUT honestly I've been fortunate with my HSPA+ speeds so far.. I've pulled down a 26k down and 3k up.. with my avg being about 18k down and 2up (plus better battery life from the HSPA+ vs LTE?). From the speeds I've seen on the LTE around the area so far I'm not so sure I want to jump (at least yet).. but I'm still tempted. =)

What ROM are you all using with what radio? I of course tried 27 and 33 radio (with stock)... and I lost all calling.. I really like the stability of the stock rom (coming from 3+ years of rooting and roming my old HTC Glacier)... but wonder if Cyanogenmod yet is stable enough as a daily driver.. or some of the others.

My wife meanwhile has a Note 2.. and received the OTA LTE update.. but so far I've NOT had it pickup any LTE signal at all.. and it's SET for LTE/GSM/CDMA in her settings.

Thanks
[Nexus 4 General] philhyde:
I am using AOKP JB-MR1 Build 6 (4.2.2) with the .33 radio. :good:

At my office in the Westchase area I am getting full bars with the LTE settings. Just ran speedtest and I'm getting 27ms ping, 24MB down and 9 up.

At my home near Pearland, I get a much weaker signal. 1-2 bars usually and slower speeds. I must just not be close to a tower.

One thing to keep in mind is that the radio settings (LTE only, etc) don't survive a reboot. So if you reboot often, keep the field test mode number handy! :laugh:
[Nexus 4 General] Stryder5:
I'm in an area with terrible signal (1 bar at most). First 2 cell tower tests were on 3G/H+ (the new radio). The last 2 cell tower tests were on 4G (the 33 radio). Speeds aren't that great, but I'll blame that on the reception for now. However, upload speeds are relatively higher on the 4G network. I'll try again when I get better signal.

I will "test drive" this setup for a few days and see if the LTE speeds get better.. and what impact it will have on battery life.... I will go to a spot on Fairmont Parkway that I know that gives me like 25-26 down with HSPA+.. I wonder if it will do the same for LTE.

I'd like to see someone actually going close to one of the known cell sites and then testing. I have yet to see 30+mbps in 2x5Mhz markets, or 60+Mbps in 2x10Mhz markets.
