4G stands for HSDPA+
Many Operator in Europe (T-Mobile DE, Vodafone IT) support HSDPA+ with >21Mbit.

True but not exactly, because after December 2010 (ITU changed specs a little), LTE and WiMAX can also be referred to as 4G technology even though it does not meet speed requirements of 4G, that is really confusing since in e.g. USA 4G can mean WiMAX...
With ITU (telecommunication standardising body) it's all about the peak transfer capability if technology can reach certain threshold it gets the 4G tag...
This is a bit illogical since e.g HSDPA+ is not that much technologically different from standard 3G family derivatives as it is from "newer" LTE, or WiMAX ... long live confusion.
hope this helps

Um. Being a dev I still only got that bit :L

the BBC reported today there is going to be LTE testing in selected areas

the gsm 4g in states is HSPA+ or whatever is called . And the G2x or O2X has i think QUAD bands wcdma , so i think that is why you see 4g . The H was replaced by 4G. In states 4g is just for marketing. A real 4g i can say is the LTE from Verizon , but WIMAX , and HSPA are no 4g in my opinion .

I'd go with t-mobile. No matter where I've lived it had best service and quality and speeds.
Its 3g is normally better then my 4g speeds and my 4gs speeds are blown outta the water compared to sprint 4g.
But might just be my area

Well I know my area has terrible t mobile service Verizon says I should have good coverage but yet I get terrible service when my friend gets great service and iv been threw every step of tech support did not help also got my phone replaced did not help I was just wondering if Samsung put a bad antenna or radio in there note 3 I want to keep the note 3 am willing to switch carriers but don't want to be stuck with the same problem

What area are u located in my area code is 95621 may they have gotten better since iv had them

So why post this in the sprint forum? ??

Sprint coverage in Niagara Falls, Canada

Hi, does anyone know if Sprint's coverage works in Niagara Falls on the Canadian side of the border? If not, what are the options? Thanks!

Most likely it will. I used to live in Toronto and people were using American satellite providers like DirecTV/Dish Network to get American channels. (not sure if it's legal though lmao)

Thanks for the reply and leg work! Do you or anyone else have any actual experience with Sprint's network in Niagara Falls?

Just wanted to give a quick update on Sprint's coverage in Niagara Falls. It works great for at least the first few blocks on the Canadian side, with Lte, sometimes dropping to 3g. All the tourist spots are covered. So, in my experience, no need for a Canadian SIM if you're just going to see the falls and attractions.

Anyone getting LTE connection?

I've had my phone for two weeks and it's never been able to connect to LTE. Am I the only one experiencing this issue?
ATT has my IMEI in the database and still no success.

You do realize that Oxygen OS doesn't show an LTE icon for LTE service? LTE is still considered 4G service, and as such it's only reported as 4G.
Download LTE Discovery, it will tell you if you're on LTE or not.

Straight Talk MVNO: AT&T Towers
OxygenOS: No, I only get a "4G+" which after a while seemed like it was as fast at LTE if I got good reception. Either icon next to the signal icon means the same thing.
Sultan's ROM: Yes, I see the LTE icon, and I even get the LTE icon indoors where I used to not get it on Oxygen OS. The APN was automatically in the system as well on this ROM.

So what ARE you getting? As I said earlier, download the LTE discovery tool, it's super helpful.

I'm getting HSPA, H+

Take a look at your APN's. If they look right, give AT&T a call.

Already did that, no worky. So maybe the phone is just defective, or OnePlus sent me one for the Chinese network and but the USA.

4G icon on SM-N960F with T-mobile (US) running XME CSC

Hello,
I have a SM-N960F mobile with version SAOMC_SM-N960F_OXM_XME_OO_0018 XME/INS,INS/XME. Mobile network shows a 4G icon instead of the usual LTE icon. Is it possible to get LTE support without rooting the device?

Did you ever come to a resolution? I am considering picking up a SM-N960F/DS Samsung Galaxy Note 9, installing LineageOS 17.1 with MicroG and use with T-Mobile in the US. Is T-Mobile US your carrier? Thanks for your time.

I don't see the issue as 4G is LTE. Having the Icon changed won't make any difference in performance speed

4G is LTE! So rooting will make no difference! Try this app as it allows you to lock network bands! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ray.samsungbandselection&hl=en_US might increase performance!
i spoke to soon 4G is not LTE LOL"While 4G LTE is a major improvement over 3G speeds, it is technically not 4G. However, most cellular carriers now advertise their networks as 4G LTE, because it sounds the same as 4G (or even better). In some cases, your phone may even display 4G LTE-A (Long Term Evolution Advanced), which is even closer to proper 4G."
