Doesn't matter which radio you flash, you won't get 4g. This chip supports only band 4. Not band 3 or any other lte band. As far as which radio will work best for you in general, it's different from person to person depending on their region and how their phone behaves. Just flash them one by one and try them for a couple of days each and see which one you like best.

Has anyone been able to get LTE working on stock 4.4? I have rooted stock w/ CWM recovery. I flashed the .33hybrid, and then the LTE enabler, doesn't work. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
[Nexus 4 General] bruce7373:
You didn't mention where you are or who your provider is, but assuming that's all good, did you go into the Phone Info menu by dialing *#*#4636#*#* and manually changing the network to LTE? Also doubling checking that your APN is set up correctly? Sometimes it takes a couple of tries before it kicks in.
[Nexus 4 General] CellPhish:
LTE works for me on 4.4. Using T-Mobile. Try using the setup I use...I'm currently using beergang rom(previously slimkat), but I don't think it'll make any difference. These are the default apns on the rom. I noticed that the APN protocol is ipv6 rather than ipv4 like before...if I switch it to ipv4 I only get hspa+. Anyways moving along go to your dialer and do the *#*#4636#*#* and first put it on LTE only, wait until you see the 4G icon, then pick LTE/GSM/WCDMA auto (PRL). You should have 4G stick. Using 27/84 hybrid. Also tried 33/54 and 33/84.
[Nexus 4 General] spmode:
Sorry, I'm on Tmobile in Philly. The only step I was missing was the 4636 code. All is well now! I was assuming the LTEenabler would give me the option to switch in settings>mobile networks (only 3G and 2G are available as options)
[Nexus 4 General] bruce7373:
That option is ROM-specific (I think AOKP based, but don't quote me). Anyway glad you got it going.

LTE changes itself to WCDMA Preferred

Hello!

I successfully used Wugs tool to flash stock 4.4 to mine and my friend's phone (both Nexus 4's), and I also flashed the LTE enabler 33 radio. We both get LTE. His is post paid, mine is prepaid. We both had to add a second APN for phone defaulting for dialed calls, but they work. Both of us occasionally have problems where the phone sets itself back to WCDMA Preferred instead of LTE/GSM preferred - I don't think it's after a reboot but I could be mistaken.

Should I have let 4.4 keep the standard radio, has it been updated, or does it still need to be updated via lte enabler?

I'm having trouble making this work on 4.3. I flashed factory images for 4.4 so I had the new bootloader/radio and used the hybrid modem for LTE. But, I wanted to go back to stable cm4.3 because of the features. So when I flashed the stable rom release, WiFi refused to turn on. However, as soon as I flashed 84 modem WiFi started working. Is there anyway for me to use the hybrid radio on 4.3 again. Could it be the new bootloader that's causing problems?
[Nexus 4 General] playya:
what rom are you running and did you change it in the phone settings as well

---------- Post added at 11:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 PM ----------

as long as you have flashed the radio made the changes in the phone app itself and add the new apn and changed it to fast.t-mobile.com it should all work fine. I have done LTE on stock and custom roms with no problem what so ever
[Nexus 4 General] wwazman:
using the 4.4 Google rom KRT16S (stock)

Yes, I did the *#*#info#*#* trick and set it to LTE/GSM

The problem is.. and it's random.. is that *occasionally* it will set itself back to WCDMA preferred (which then prevents us from receiving calls at all.. the auto disconnect does not even allow others to leave a voicemail message :\ ) ...this is actually a HUGE problem as we are both doing jobsearch.
[Nexus 4 General] playya:
what about the apn do you have multiple choices or just 1
[Nexus 4 General] wwazman:
originally, It had a apn for MetroPcs, a BLANK entry for T-mobile GPRS, and the default Tmobile GPRS with fast.t-mobile.com.

It was necessary to add information to the BLANK entry to do phonecalls, and it was made "epc.tmobile.com"

so to repeat:

apn1: MetroPCS : fast.metropcs.com [no idea why that's there cause I'm in Oregon]

apn2: T-Mobile GPRS: epc.tmobile.com

apn3: (default) T-Mobile GPRS: fast.t-mobile.com
[Nexus 4 General] playya:
Metro and TMobile are the same now... also those are the same choices I have and it never moves from default ever... ever ever... Not sure why you would be having these issuse since it seems all is in order
[Nexus 4 General] bruce7373:
I don't understand why the random reset to WCDMA would prevent you from receiving calls. Are you using the straight 33 radio or a hybrid with 4.4? If the former, try a 33/84 hybrid, which I've had good luck with on a custom 4.4 ROM. Or perhaps a 97/27/97 or 97/33/96 hybrid. Take a look here:

I'm thinking that is a normal behavior because the radio uses a lot of power, and if there's not a lot of power available, then it starts to misbehave. :(

I could be wrong tho.

[Nexus 4 General] shmoozie:

[Nexus 4 General] Berrydroidcafe:
I would get a second opinion, but the theory holds true for any radio, no matter if it's 4G, 3G,and so on. Reason being, say you're in a subway, your phone lose signal, it will work its butt off, searching for a usable signal. Meanwhile it's draining your battery.

Actually, you don't have to be in a subway. I've watched my phone go through all the bands, and I was sitting still. I didn't know it had a G. Heard (and seen) all the others, E, 3G, H, H+ and 4G before, but not G. Let me go find out what that one is.

So the "good news" is it didn't brick my phone.;)

I see from the poll that .33 is preferred, seeing as I get the same results (no difference), what should I be testing to decide which to keep the N4 on? Can I measure mA drain just phone doing nothing? Do I have to simply run it off battery for long time and measure drain?

That didn't work before. The LTE enabler mods the build.prob and flashing the new OTA won't work.
[Nexus 4 General] Berrydroidcafe:
I'm not a Android developer, although I play one on TV :D but it seems to me that the mod(s) shouldn't affect the overall operations of the phone, if you were to flash the stock radio, in fact, I tend to think that flashing the stock radio would re-write the file anyway.

So the choices are, flash the stock, or edit the file, or wipe EVERYTHING, meaning flash the stock OS, which in this case unroot and so forth.

I have used the hybrid radio on 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4 roms. So good luck to you.

Can someone post a quick tutorial on how to extract the build prop file from android 4.4 factory image. I can't install the OTA zip for 4.4.1 without it since I installed the LTE enabler over the 4.4 OTA i installed.

Been searching google and the xda forums and can't find a tutorial on how to do this anywhere. People either post the build prop file for whatever phone they were talking about or just say "extract the build prop file." I need some directions! lol.

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 4 General] santeana:
The build.prop is a system file that gets overwritten when you flash a rom. Flashing a rom over your current one will undo any changes you've made to the build.prop including the LTE enabler changes.

just flash 4.4.1 over your current rom using twrp and then reflash the enabler when you're done if you choose to do that.
[Nexus 4 General] masterofmayhem:
Yup. You are totally right in most cases. Flashing the ota will not work if you try to flash it over a mod stock ROM. To flash the ota, you need to be totally stock (ota will over write recovery, so that doesn't matter). If there are any changes, the ota won't flash. I speak from experience.

[Nexus 4 General] Berrydroidcafe:
I'm a little confused, so please help me out here. I am aware that if you are running a custom rom, there's no way to update to the next version via OTA. However, flashing a factory image via a recovery can be done, but not as an update to a custom rom, but if one is running 4.3 (stock) , updating to 4.4 by flashing, would that work?

I've flashed the factory image before, but that was after a factory reset via the recovery.

KitKat or Almond Joy?
[Nexus 4 General] AJ06:
You're right, it cannot be custom ROM.

It has to be stock ROM, as in the one that comes from the Android Factory Images website.

But yea, you can flash stock 4.3 and update it to 4.4 and update that to 4.4.1 as long as the system files aren't modified. I would just cleanly install 4.4 just because that's just too much of a hassle.

My system files were modified so:

I just did fastboot update [factory image.zip]

then fastboot flash radio [radio.img]

then finally adb sideload [4.4.1 OTA.zip]

Lots of steps just to get that damn OTA to install properly. Now Iv'e ruined it by adding all the modifications I had before haha

Handling OTA's

Okay. . . here's a quick tutorial. . . where my instructions lag, I suggest you do a quick forum or YouTube search. This worked fine for me:

Starting point: Nexus 4, rooted with SuperSU, TWRP, LTE enabled; Command line instructions below are for Mac but just delete the preceding "./" and your good-to-go for Windows

You have to get the phone back to 100% stock before accepting an OTA update.

1. Ensure ADB and Fastboot are loaded and current on desktop

2. Download latest OTA ZIP, SuperSU ZIP, TWRP image, factory image, and LTE radio ZIP's

3. Place all of these files in the same directory as Fastboot

4. Place SuperSU and LTE radio files into the Nexus 4's download folder

5. Extract factory image and place the bootloader, radio and system files in the same directory as Fastboot

6. Boot into bootloader (power off, then power on while holding power and volume down)

7. Using Fastboot, flash bootloader using “./fastboot flash bootloader [bootloader.img]”, then reboot-bootloader using “./fastboot reboot-bootloader”

8. Using Fastboot, flash radio using “./fastboot flash radio [radio.img]”, then reboot-bootloader using “./fastboot reboot-bootloader”

9. Using Fastboot, update system image; this will blow away your custom recovery (i.e TWRP) but does NOT wipe the device; Use “./fastboot update [image.zip]”

10. Reboot system and verify that it boots correctly

11. Reboot into recovery (follow step 6. above then use volume rocker to select recovery then press power, once the screen shows the Android in the center, hold power and press volume up and down)

12. ADB sideload OTA ZIP; in Recovery select “Apply Update from ADB”; then use “./adb sideload [ota.zip]”

13. Reboot system and verify that it boots correctly

14. Boot into bootloader

15. Using Fastboot use “./fastboot flash recovery [TWRP.img]”

16. Boot into TWRP (in Bootloader select Recovery)

17. Flash SuperSU; reboot system

18. Verify Root

19. Reboot into TWRP

20. Flash LTE radio; reboot system; verify radio is configured properly​
[Nexus 4 General] coznosis:
Thanks for posting the tutorial. I actually scoured the interweb to get an idea of how to update to 4.4.1 with lte enabled while keeping my all my data on the phone.

I ended up flashing the boot.img, system.img, and standard 4.4 radio.img files. Then in TWRP I installed the OTA zip file to update my phone to 4.4.1. Then in TWRP I installed the zip from bpear's LTE enabler thread. Worked perfectly. Now I am going to try to install the new zip bpear just linked on this thread for the 33-98 hybrid LTE radio. Hopefully it works well. Thanks everyone for the help.

Just want to make sure installing the 98-33 LTE enabler zip over the older zip will work fine.

Also how is this new radio? Do you know what improvements the 98 radio brought?

Bad news; I can't seem to get any of .33 hybrid zips to work with 4.4.2. Every time I reboot after enabling LTE and getting 4G service, the setting resets to WCDMA preferred. Looks like I will have to decide if I want to stick with 4.4.2 or revert to 4.4.1.
