[Q] tmobile (USA) 4 G 2013 - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi everyone,
Does this international device support the new Tmobile (USA) 4G speeds (as of April 2013) ?
if yes, whats the average download and upload speeds in supported Tmobile 4G Cities ?
thanks

It does. Been for a while. And speeds are very good. Sorry I'm to lazy to do a speed test but it's very fast. At least I believe so here in Miami.

it does
I am using this wonderful device with T-mobile, and i get good speeds, like 8mbps download and 1 upload.

Isn't t mobile us 4g just hspa+ ?

So they tout 3g as 4g. In my opinion that's misleading. Although you can get decent speeds on HSPA+. I get 8mbps down and 5 up on 3 in UK. Works out quicker than my mates LTE iPhone in London. Quick is one thing. Selling it as tech it ain't is another!

[REQ]4G icon for H/H+

HI can anyone help for a mod to change the H/H+ icon for a 4G icon just like the at&t version? thanks!
As I'm currently using my Note on AT&T HSPA/HSPA+, I'd like this too. My Skyrocket has 4G icons for HSPA+.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
But it's not 4g, so why should it have that icon?
Ya'. It's not technically 4G, but AT&T slaps that icon on all of their HSPA+ & LTE phones; including the Note. I just want the same icons the AT&T note has.

Ah! So you want your phone to lie, like they have set theirs up to lie?
Only kidding!

Well, AT&T is pretty much lying about their HSPA+ network. The most I've seen on it is 10Mbps. But T-Mobile is a lot closer to the truth. They call their HSPA+ 42 network 4G and it really is equivalent to true North American 4G networks like WiMax and LTE. Anyway, I just want my Skyrocket and Note to show the same icon when connected to HSPA+. Skyrocket says 4G for HSPA+ and 4G-LTE for LTE.

So, we could both still use those 4G icons. Any ideas?

You can replace them in systemui.apk. just rename the icons you want to use with the ones it is using.

Yeah. We know how to swap out our icons for the new ones we want to use. The problem is that we don't have the icons we need. What we need are the 4G & 4G-LTE icons from the status bar on an AT&T Note (SGH-I717).
Thank you anyway though. You're the first person actually trying to be helpful with their post.

Can't you extract them from your skyrocket? I would be interested in them as well.

I've already tried that. The Skyrocket's screen is much lower res. than the Note's. The Skyrocket's 4G HSPA(+) icon looks terrible on the Note. I think what we really need is the 4G and 4G-LTE icons from an AT&T SGH-I717. That would work perfectly... well... the regular 4G icon would... the 4G-LTE icon really doesn't have a place on the GT-N7000.

Try posting a request in the AT&T Note forum?
Would be cool if you attached it here afterwards.

Is there anyway to make the phone show 4g instead of h+ on top....this is on the bwidow rom...i know it on the same hspap system, just a personal preference i guess

Is LTE/4G the same thing?
Or is 4g just faster than 3g and LTE is stupid faster than 4g??? I'm confused.
I always thought 4g and LTE were different speeds.

OK, so can we get 4g speeds w/o LTE on a RAZR port?

You get 4g but you dont get 4g lte.
Hmm, my wife's phone is 3g and her data speeds kill me on my 4g phone with a ROM that's been ported.
That's why I was thinking I am not getting regular 4g. On stock I put her to shame.
I'm fairly certain that I don't have LTE in my area .

Just look up what speed h+ gets compared to 3g. It should be faster though. You can also always give joker a shot. I get good speeds on it.

Lte speed

Hello everyone,
I was wondering what speed I should be getting on lte. I did a speed test and I had 10mbps down and 3up. It seems to be a 3g speed.
Thanks

Network speeds vary across carriers. Just because its an LTE network does not mean you will always get super fast speeds. Sprint for example has LTE but their speeds are terrible. Generally I consider anywhere from 15mbs and up download to be decent LTE speeds. I pull at least 15-20 Mbps on at&ts network where I live and I consider that more than enough.
