LTE icon on status bar now showing - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

Was this part of the Nougat upgrade?

Lte if available through your carrier has always been there, but Im guessing ur talking about the little lte next to ur signal bars.

T-Mobile 4G vs LTE with Moto X?

Have had LTE in our area for years just noticed the other day both Moto X phone connecting on 4G?
Only setting I find is Auto and or 2 G
Under settings, Data, other, mobile network, preferred network type.
I'm I missing some other setting or trick ?
LTE is checked in APN setting

Change back LTE to unspecified. Make sure you have the LTE APN and the dot beside it is highlighted.

If my memory serves 4.2.2 only showed 4G. 4.4+shows 4G with a small LTE above it. Ignore my screenshots cause my signal bars are modded. Here's what your APN settings should look like...
I can't attach screenshots for some reason...
I'll try and upload them when I get to a PC
Or I could just clear data on the XDA app and post them now.

For me I get the 4G LTE icon on 4.4.3 T-Mobile OTA. I only saw the LTE icon alone on stock Rogers 4.4.2.

Guys it's requirement from carrier to show 3G HSPA+ as 4G you can download LTE on off app from play store and try setting LTE only to check whether you are getting LTE signal it should show 4G LTE icon

On your screenshot #3, I have edited the APN type and added ,dun at the end. It is supposed to make mms more reliable. I got that from this or another forum which I can't find now.
Hasn't it always

Did your phone update overnight? If you're stock you might have gotten 4.4.3
Upgrade was done Sunday it was doing this prior to 4.4.3

Can I buy an unlock code for this version and then work on AT&T LTE?

You should not need to, as all Verizon phones are already unlocked. You just won't get lte on other networks

You just corroborated what I just said.
The fastest network speeds you will get are 3G HSPA+

I find it extroardinary you were able to even temporarily get a 4G signal.
That said, you could try changing your APN settings. Here is a link to an article explaining how.

Xiaomi Mi5 GSM issues. (Resolved)

Resolved: Wouldn't connect to T-Mobile networks, connected fine to AT&T. Guessing it was band limitations. (Should have checked bands.)
Here in California, USA and can't seem to even connect to the 2G/3G services on T-Mobiles networks. Popped in my SIM card last night and got a MetroPCS banner for about a second. Haven't been able to get it to work since. Always no bars, no service. Any tips?
Here's a screenshot of my lack of signal. I seem to get signal for a second, then it just disconnects. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
I bought new xiaomi m5 and straight away got problem with the touchscreen. If anybody had similar problem, will go to the shop to see what they say anyway.
Where did you buy yours? I had mine imported of course.

Just a hint: Try your frend sim card, if it doesn't work with that too, I would write to the shop to send back for repair or replace.
Yeah, hasn't worked with any SIM card. They do returns but not repairs/replaces.
What do you get when you dial: *#*#4636#*#*
Maybe you can optimize the settings?

I always get emergency calls only, it reads that there is a SIM card inserted for both slot 1 & 2 plus it reads the phone number of the card AND even contacts on the card but doesn't connect to the network. :/
is that some Quality Assurance issues or a general problem?
Also getting issues with signal, weaker than any other of phones , sometimes drops call, or caller hear me with pause, ( i'm techinician, repairing phones, having a lot of tests), i'm in EU. Because lack of band 20 4g+ isn't working here i think. Overall a lot of people got defective units. Mine also have loudspeaker problems, tryed to calibrate via service menu, still the same.
Got it to work! AT&T works with 3G and HSPA/HSPA+ woo!!

Yaa Sure. I think the only problem is the selected(LTE/WCDMA or any LTE ) network by pressing *#*#4636#*#* , is not same every time , the engineering mode is closed. If there is any way to do this then it might work. Anyhow Volte is hardware thing so it won't work in non-LTE phone for call. But somehow if the phone can get 4G signal it might work for data usage in 3G speed.
But I don't know if the 3G phone can receive 4G signal.

[Q] Is this normal ? 4G to 3G to H+ when calling?

I have a unlocked s10+ with a ATT sim card, when I try to make a call, the HTE network symbol changes to a lower speed and eventually H (edge), however the call does go through?
Just curious if anyone else was seeing this ?
Thanks in advance!
Its normal if you have VoLTE disabled or if it isn't available. You can check in settings > connections > mobile networks and check if you have VoLTE enabled.
Don't see it under those options, thanks for the reply !

Ask your provider to re-provision VoLTE setting to your SIM. Also sometimes you may have to wait for an update for he settings to get applied. Happened to me on my S7. Carrier had activated VoLTE but phone s/w didn't support it. After an update, everything worked.
data is limited to H or 3G (if you are lucky) during calls
thats normal as the phone is using bandwidth for voice calls and cannot offer same data speeds
4G is all about data transfers so you would never really make a call over 4G it will always be over H
ATT doesn't allow VoLTE on the unlocked version. You will need to flash the carrier rom to enable it.
Appreciate everyone's feedback, I spoke to my carrier, and they (Level 2 Tech.) claimed that they (ATT) and Samsung were working on a device performance update, but were not sure of the release time, I will see if they can address this issue, else will need to reflash with carrier rom

I recently switched to ATT and I have VoLTE on my S10e unlocked exynos. Had it on T-mobile too. I have a VoLTE switch under Connections>Mobile Networks. Snapdragon maybe different, but it definitely works on a stock unlocked device.

I have LTE during voice calls. Your phone/carrier may not give you this option, but others have it.
At&T doesn't fully support unlocked phone learned that the hard way when i bought my 1st unlock note 8. Internet was slow same signal your getting H+ no wifi calling it was a mess returned it and bought an At&t note.

Curious, what made you go for a Exynos phone? I thought they were inferior to the SD versions and LTE bands missing for the USA

Future custom roms, root. The exynos version isn't missing any LTE bands that I know of. I get great coverage and speed. I don't know how they are inferior to SD. Performance and battery life are good.
Unlocked U1 devices will not get VoLTE or VoWifi with AT&T. Some have had luck flashing the AT&T firmware and CSC on prior generations, but there wasn't a guaranteed way to make this work.
If you need these features, youre best off buying the AT&T branded version, or buying an international phone that enables VoLTE without requiring carrier validation. (Which will likely work)

If your provider supports VoLTE, then you can as voice is transmitted as VOIP call via LTE network. You should see VoLTE icon next to 4G icon if your provider supports it and is provisioned to your SIM card.
