[Q] Enabling LTE on T-Mobile with C6903? - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I recently got the Z1 C6903 and I'm only getting up to HSDPA+ speeds with the Z1, not LTE. I downloaded the internet settings, and I've searched around and tried about 4-5 different APNs with no success. Can anyone please share their APN settings that work and enable LTE?
Thanks for any help.

I also have a c6903 on T-Mobile that I bought from the UK. I wasn't getting LTE on it, only 4G. But I fixed that by flashing a generic central Europe .534 firmware then OTA update to. 257. So if you're still not getting LTE with this apn, it may be because of the firmware on your phone

LTE=4G
In the UK is called 4G, in other parts of the world's its called LTE.
If you have a UK FW then it will say 4G when you are using LTE.

Network and band selection

I have a question. My tab refuses to get 3g or hsdpa. It does just fine it ottawa where I am from but doesn't in other places. I would just chalk it up to the network but both of my captivates get 3g and hsdpa in the same area. In the process of trying as many modems as I can now.
Any explanations would be appreciated.
Running the l latest overcome.

You have to have a T-mobile sim and tab, or at&t sim and tab. If you mix them you can only get voice and EDGE data.

T mobile tab unlocked getting horrible service on att.

Like the title says. T mobile tab flashed over to euro rom to allow phone access.
I put my att sim in and it says att in the notification bar says att but i get little to no service. If it does get edge it dissapears a second later. Could this possibly be because of a bad unlock if that exists.
A side note. I am using a new 4g att sim in the tab would that make a difference

You did not mention if you checked the APN settings. I am not sure if the TMOUS AWS band is the problem on ATT.
Sorry, yes i did check the apn settings. But would the tab still show att if it wasnt unlocked. Maybe my unlock didnt take.

And just to add some info. When i first put my sim in it took a while to get service then it started to junp around frequencies. Edge then gprs then hsdpa and now nothing

You do relize that Edge speeds will probably be all you get for data FYI.

You will not get 3G since att 3G operates at a different frequency than tmobile. However you should be getting edge.
I am having the exact same problem with the unlock ? How did u get it to work exactly

Network lock

Is there an easy east to see if my 3 mobile XZ is locked to the network without using another SIM? I know the bootloader is locked.
Thanks

No data, anywhere. on T-Mobile PLEASE help

First experience with t-mobile... I have absolutely no data unless I'm data "roaming" which allows me 50mb. I've tried changing settings, talking with t-mobile for days...I have 3g/4g next to my full signal bars. I'm really angry about this since I'm paying extra for unlimited data. I can't find help threads anywhere and everyone else I know in this town with t-mobile apparently doesn't have the same issue. Please help

Check your apn settings or your sim card.

LTE issues.

Is anyone else finding that their phone will not connect to LTE?
I did *#*#4636#*#* and tried to change it from WCDMA Preferred, but it does not allow me to do so.

Mine is set to lte/GSM auto and will connect to 4G lte when I am in a city with it. Montana has only a few cities with lte and mine is surprisingly not one of them.

It happened to be a bad SIM card. I went into AT&T and they put in a new one. LTE popped right up. Problem solved.
