[Q] Galaxy S 3 LTE (SFR France)

I have ths SGSIII LTE from SFR and they have a special network : the 4G network is not avaible yet every where but hey have "Dual Carrier" network. As i had understood, it it a 3g network and it is double connection to 3G+ so it might go up to 42.2 mbits/s.
What i want to know is : if I flash an official rom from Samsung will I still have that double connection ? or it is a specification from SFR's Rom ?
please tell meif i can flash my phone without loosing this double connection ?

It's not double connection, it's DC-HSPA+ (Dual Cell HSPA+ up to 42Mbps) and Yes, you can use any ROM (Custom or Official) and you won't loose it. It's hardware related not software, you're safe
Here in UK it's fast, DL up to 25Mbps!!! Unlimited for little money...
Remember to check model, it's GT-I9305...

Is the S3 Dual Carrier the same as S3 LTE?
I bought my I9305 and there's no mention of LTE anywhere....... It just says 'Galaxy S3 Dual Carrier' it has Quallcomm 4G sticker on it though.... Very confusing!

DC-HSPA+ exists here in the US on T-Mobile although it's only compatible with the T-Mobile Galaxy S3 at the moment since it uses 1700/2100 MHz for 3G/HSPA+.
The Qualcomm 4G sticker is on your device because unlike the S3 i9300, you guys have a Qualcomm RIL/LTE modem. DC-HSPA+ is determined by the network (it's either supported or not), but I think that all phones support it.

how to know when device connected to LTE advance?

Just wondering how did we know that our devices connected to LTE advance? or where should i enable it. In Samsung S7 Edge the sign in the status bar will show 4g+ when its connected to LTE advance, and only 4G when it is on Normal LTE.
In Xperia device it is like always show only LTE sign without anything like LTE+, or it should be somewhere to enable it anyone has a clues? please show your screen capture if you able to connected to it and how Thank you

I only have 4G icon all the time, never seen 4G+. I don't know why. Maybe because there's no LTE advamced around.

I'm in Thailand and ww have 2 operators now support LTE-A which is TrueMoveH and AIS. attached is my TrueMoveH carrier with Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge you can see the plus sign just next to 4G means it is connected to 4G+ (4.5G LTEA whatever it called, but same tech of Carrier Aggregation AKA CA combine two band of 4g together to get the higher speed). Anyway speed wise for this post is slowww hahaha (notmally it is easily reach around 150-250mbps).
But my Xperia just show LTE and no any option to enable ot anywwhere so i would love for anyone to share in your country how it is looks when xperia x performance connected to 4G+ or any screen shot to enable it.

Do you have the Truemove Sim card in your S7E and an AIS Sim in your Xperia or are both phones using Truemove?
Have you swapped the Sim cards to see if the Sim card in your S7E will provide the settings for Enhanced LTE?
I have read through several threads about the Xperia X Performance and found that some users don't have the options in their settings to enable Enhanced 4G LTE unless the Sim card they are using is provisioned for it from the carrier.

I can confirm this.
Its not the phone that enables 4G or LTE but the sim card.
If your sim doesnt support 4G etc, you wont be able to access it.
I have tested it myself with a new and old sim card on the xp.
1 sim only alowed 3G, while the new sim gave me 4G.

fast69mopar i try swap things and did not see anything.
XxKYNGxX Thank you for answer, what i mean is LTE adavance not 4G LTE. All my sim are running normal 4G LTE but my S7Edge running LTE advance (4G+)

Okay. So, from everything I have read about TruemoveH and their networks, the Sony Xperia X Performance does support 3xCarrier Aggregation on their network. Even though the device supports CA and does work on their 3xCA there is not anything that will show up on the display to alert you when you are using it. The only thing that may give you a chance to see it is the LTE Discovery app from the Play Store. For example, here in the United States on Verizon networks, when I was connected to band 4 in my area, the LTE Discovery app listed band 4 as XLTE which is Verizon's was of telling customers they are using Advanced LTE. When you open the app, the LTE band is located in the top left box in the app. Below the band number could possibly show if you are actually using Advanced LTE. Hope this helps. Good luck.

I see 4g+ sometimes but the speed is not noticeable as 4g is fast enough.
4g+ on European nordic ?
Sent from my F8131 using XDA-Developers mobile app

any speed above 150mbps is LTE Advance.

Okay so i am not worrying about this anymore but in my openion they should show the most advance technology they got on screen for the user, like we have H and H+. We still got the best speed on towm on this device though
Thank you for all comments

If I remember, I think I did see H+ and H on my XP.

Guys, today i saw 4G+ icon on my XP for the first time. I suppose that was a LTE advanced itself.

LTE+ In Mexico

well, here is the deal.
I bought my Note 8 in the USA (model N950U1) and I am using it in Mexico with Telcel and is working in LTE all the time but a friend of mine has the international version and he has 4G+ (LTE+) and I dont. I went to Canada last week and my network changed to Rogers and was able to use LTE+ the entire week, so I am guessing that it has to be the bands here in Mexico or something. Is there a way to change the CSC or the bands so I can use the LTE+? I have the snapdragon version.
thanks in advance

I have a 950F, bought from telcel, when using data a 4G icon appears not LTE, I have also VoLTE available, showing an icon when active, the icon (LTE or 4G) may be carrier defined

I forgot to mention that, In USA and Canada the use LTE instead of 4G (is the same), so if you see 4G+ i the same as LTE+. Looks like they are more into letters than numbers.
So,are you on 4G+ or just 4G?

Telcel uses 4G+ or 4.5G, (LTE+) as they evolved from 4G (LTE) to handle VoLTE, so they say
