Just thought I'd post this as it might be the fix you need for your lte.
I was having lte issues with every rom I tried. Naturally, I flashed back to stock ICS as this would usually fix any problems I ever had with my phone. Unfortunately, I would still only get HSPA and nothing more. I then tried the format trick (*2767*3855#) which also did not help. Finally, I tried scanning network operator in my mobile settings but again, no luck. I decided I'd triangle away and take my phone in for repair today as I thought for sure it was a hardware issue. Before going to Telus, I thought of one last hail Mary, my buddy at work has a note and is on telus as well, so we switched sims and voila, LTE was finally back on my phone and he wasn't able to get LTE on his phone using my sim card. So I went to telus and got a new sim card and now my lte issues are gone, I've been locked on since leaving and getting double the speeds I used to get before I started having issues.
I will add that the sim that was failing me was the one that came with my S3 when I bought it from Telus, so it wasn't like I was using a sim from an older phone that wasn't lte capable.
I hope this helps anyone who might be having lte issues and if it does, please let me know in this thread.
