AT&T signal changing everytime I'm making a phone call - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6

Does anyone else notice that when you are making phone call and if you look at your status bar that your LTE signal changed to H+ / H? Does this mean when we are making phone call we are not on LTE? Or we are in LTE but it's showing as h+? Because call quality is still not great no matter what.

Did you disable VoLTE in your advanced calling features menu? If yes, that's why. Is VoLTE available in your area? If no, that's why.

How do I check to see that advanced calling options? Because I didn't change anything on the phone.

You should see an option for "Enhanced 4G LTE Services." If that is on, then you're not in an HD Voice/VoLTE service area.

Wondering why if I leave my one set to lte only it holds it with no problems but once I change it to the regular settings is mostly on 3g?

I understand if set to LTE only that it "holds onto LTE better" I suppose, but is it usable? Once the LTE gets to around -120dbs on the One it is unusable I read. Sometimes at my work it will be on LTE but the minute I start using and significant data it drops to 3G.

Moto X Not Switching to LTE

So I picked up an unlocked XT1053 GSM developer edition a month or so ago. I got on Net10 and everything seems fine except for one issue.
When I am in an HSPA+ area and come into a known LTE area the phone doesn't seem to switch to LTE right away. If I toggle airplane mode on and off I get full LTE with good signal and it holds strong until I'm back in a weak area. If I am in an LTE area for a while after about 30 min or so it will finally switch on it's own, but I would think it should be much faster without using airplane mode. Anyone have any ideas?
Call your service provider and provide them your IMEI so they can provision your device.

LTE works on my phone though, it just doesn't switch right away. It seems like if HSPA+ is even one dB better then it stays on it. If I toggle airplane mode I get strong LTE. Is that a provisioning issue?
Is there a way with APNs or anything to make LTE take priority if it's present?
It could be the provisioning. You sim may not be fully provisioned. If that doesn't fix it.
You can change it to lte only.
Install a app called any cut. Create a short cut for testing. Select the first option and at the bottom change it lte only. See if it works. If not then the network isn't allowing iy

Well I ordered an actual nano Sim from net10 since they just got them. It will be here tomorrow so I'm sure that when I transfer my service to it my account will get provisioned. If I still have problems I'll try what you mentioned.

[Q] No LTE on t-mobile Note 4 with AT&T service

Are you using service through AT&T or using a AT&T sim through Straight talk or some other subsidiary? I would also look into the apn settings and make sure it is setup properly.

Easy fix. Use the apn from my screen shots below.
The use LTE Discovery to reboot your modem. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.simplyadvanced.ltediscovery
Then enjoy your LTE

Did you download and use the LTE Discovery App? It needs to reset your modem. Also double check to make sure you entered the apn exactly the same. No phantom spaces, etc. There should be no spaces in the "apn type".
If you still aren't getting data I have one more apn you can try.

I get 4G only on the "nextgenphone"
LTE discovery doesn't do much but turn off my service and turn it on but still then I only get 4G.

I'm gnna put screenshots, are you able to get lte ?
I have no problem getting LTE on my Note 4 using AT&T'S network.
Screen shots below. I gets decent speeds, not the crazy 40 mbs like some people get, but that is mainly because of the area I live in.
If I am closer to the city I get 35 to 50 mbs down load and 10 to 15 upload.

I am using a T-Mobile Note 4 on ATT network and have no issues. First of all make sure LTE is enabled on your number/simcard. If not call the customer care and ask them to enable LTE on your line. They will ask your device IMEI number and then enable it. If not u will only get a 4G signal on your phone
If you are having trouble getting data on your device, then use these APN settings

I have tried that one already :/
The service rep said this "You are getting LTE on your other lines. Because the device that being use on the line is sync on your account. Since the device that is sync on the line that ends with 1521 is the iPhone 6 Plus. The Note 4 does not receive data service. Because it is registered on the iPhone 6 plus." how legit is that?
If u have a phone on contract on that line, then I use guess it is difficult. Or you can go to an ATT store and say that u lost your sim card. Ask for a new one and say that it is for an Android LTE smartphone.

According to this thread, you also have to go to settings, more networks, mobile networks, network mode and change to LTE/WCDMA/GSM.
I just bought a T-Mobile Note 4 to use on AT&T, but I am waiting for an unlock code. I really hope I don't have any issue.

Will do, but it might be a few days. Guy I bought it from requested the unlock code on Monday and still hasn't received it. Third parties are taking forever too.

I know people are successfully getting LTE on T-mobile Note 4 on AT&T service, though I am not sure which APN settings they're using. Looks like there are at least 3 in this thread to try... but it may be a block from AT&T ? I can't imagine that's the case, but I honestly don't know exactly how much control they (AT&T) have over what bands a given sim card can receive if its not matched to the imei on file in their system? I guess a lot?
OFF TOPIC: How much did you guys pay for the unlock codes? (curious)
LTE works great on this phone with AT&T service. Been using it without issue for months.
I don't know why this person is having issues. Only thing I can think is that the Sim card is bad.
Paid $30 for the unlock.
My AT&T account doesn't even show a smart phone. See the screen shot below. As long as it says LTE device then it's not AT&T causes the problem.

I don't know why I'm having issues honestly. I'm trying everything that's thrown at me , I even got a new Sim card yet no LTE. I don't even care if it shows LTE indicator , but it's that my speeds are so slow. 2-5mbps download while on my iPhone 6plus I would get 50mbps download.

[Q] How to find out who the roaming carrier is on T-mobile?

How do you find out what roaming carrier that T-mobile is using?
I have Tmo and Note 4 and I know you to access the Service Mode you enter *#0011#
I am going to be travelling to Moscow, Singapore and Malaysia and I want to see how good the free data and txt msg are as Tmobile has claimed. So I just want to know who carrier they use.
Thanks.
When you're there, try doing a speed test.
Usually the app tells you which network you're on.

Oh, the speedtest app? I thought there is some hidden screen somewhere to check for roaming.
From what I heard we can only get 3G speed at the max.
I will see and let you all know.

When I went to Germany, the carrier just showed up in the notification bar. It worked great but was only 3g speeds.
Just slide the Notification bar down, and it will tell.

Roaming Indicator Off

Anyway to get rid of this message? I'm using Straight Talk on Verizon's network. Turned off data roaming because I don't this ST has access to roam off of Verizon's cell towers. Any ideas? I know I can change to a custom network label but when you pull down the status bar. It's continues to display regardless.

I have this problem too and I noticed that if I turn off enhanced 4g lte in settings then that messages goes away and it should go back to whatever service you have. Bad part is you lose enhanced 4g lte service whatever that is LOL.

Have you found a solution to this other than disabling enhanced LTE?
Pretty much any ROM I use has this, and if i disable it, I lose LTE altogether. >.>
