I'm not real sure what's going to fix your issue... If your dropping signal completely I would point to the modem, but it's probably the same modem you were running on stock with no issues... I would wipe the phone and reflash... If your TiBu was made from a TouchWiz ROM that could also be your issue somehow...

this is a great post.

Thanks...

Wow, I don't know how, but my phone finally has 4g. Perhaps it's because aokp selectively throttles down when WiFi is being used. If so, I'm surprised that it took hours to regain an lte connection.

I can report that those settings for the Rogers LTE APN are correct and working.

On this same front, there seems to be a lot of misinformation (old, incomplete, or irrelevant) wandering around the internet about how to set up Rogers Tethering properly.

Anyone out there had any success with Rogers Data Tethering? I can't tell if there is something specific that needs to be done differently for the SGS3, because mine is confirmed set up on Rogers internal side, but i can't for the life of me figure out the settings to get my SGS3 connection shared with my iPad.

Thanks!

EDIT/ADDITION:

So with a great deal of fiddling around, and a little bit more information for you here:

1) The device I'm trying to tether on is the iPad 2

2) I have had limited success in wifi hotspot tethering, but only through some monkeying around that I don't have the technical background to explain why this would be the case.


I added in various APNs and tested a bunch of combinations. Nothing particularly worked when connected to the LTE network. The last time tethering did work for me was with AOKP b5, and I'm now running CM10 10/24 Nightly. The one...flaw?...with AOKP was that my LTE connection wasn't turned on, and wasn't sticking. So the last time my tethering worked was when I was connected to 3G/H/H+ with AOKP by mistake.

So, I tested that on CM10 by entering the rogers-core-appl1.apn, and bumping down my preferred connection to GSM/WCDMA.

Suddenly, success!

Now...the technical part that maybe someone with more experience can answer is - does the wifi hotspot communicate something to the iPad2 where it is trying to use or show use of an LTE connection?? Is that why tethering would work on the 3G/H/H+ connections, but would not work when my SGS3 was connected to the 4G network??

Thanks!

Did you do the dial code to switch the bands?

I can't believe I didnt' start flashing ROMs earlier... This is amazing. It's SO much smoother than ICS. Haven't run into any major problems so far (10.28 build) however I'm not able to connect to facebook, anyone else have this problem?

I have this same issue as well but only on Paranoid Android. I tried it over Slimbean and it worked. Also used to work when I used AOKP a while back. Not sure why this is the case.

I only get H+ on Bell with everything you have but no worries, Not like I download huge files on the go with limited data.

fix for me

For me restoring using the generated QCN corresponding to carrier version phone fixed my LTE problem. Steps in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1801997. After restoring using modified file and changing to LTE/GSM/WDCMA mode in mobile settings got an LTE signal instantly. Tried every other recommendation beforehand and nothing else worked for me.

Note using an unlocked Rogers GS3 on Koodo and tried flashing a Telus modified QCN which didn't work. Rogers file brought back LTE.

    Are you having issues with LTE on an AOSP ROM? Look here for information, and post any questions you may have about the subject.

    First, we need to debunk the carrier's explanation of 4g. The carriers will explain to you that if it says 4g on the stock ROM you are using LTE. That is NOT true, 4g on the stock ROM is actually H, or H+, which is technically 3.5g, and not LTE. The stock ROM displays LTE as 4g LTE

    So the first thing you need to do is make SURE you are in a location that has LTE coverage. Go to your carrier's website and verify with their coverage map

    Coverage Maps:

    AT&T
    Rogers
    Bell
    Telus



    AOSP based ROMs display your true network connectivity as follows:

    G = GPRS
    E = EDGE
    3g = 3g
    H = HSDPA / HSPA
    H+ = HSDPA+ / HSPA+
    4g = LTE



    For Canadian users, you MUST verify LTE / GSM / WCDMA is selected.

    The Dialer Code is *#*#DATA*#*# (or *#*#4636#*#*). You will enter the Data Programming menu, to set it.

    Here is an app that will access the menu for you:

    LTEOnOFF

    Reported ROMs the settings stick on reboot:

    CM10
    SlimBean
    AOKP

    Now you have to verify you are using the correct LTE APN settings, and if not, add it.
    You can access your APNs by "System Settings => More => Mobile networks => Access Point Names"



    Here are the LTE settings for ALL US and Canadian carriers:

    AT&T

    Name: ATT PTA
    APN: pta
    MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net

    MMS Port: 80
    MMS Protocol: WAP 2.0
    MCC: 302
    MNC: 220
    Authentication type: not set
    APN Type: default,mms,hipri
    Bearer: unspecified

    Alaska Communications (ACS)
    2 APNs

    Data APN:

    Name: ACS Data
    APN: web.acs
    MCC 311 (Default)
    MNC 370 (Default)
    APN type: “default,supl” or “*”

    MMS APN:

    Name: ACS MMS
    APN: mms.acs
    MMSC: http://mmsc.gci.csky.us:6672
    MMS proxy: 209.4.229.92
    MMS port: 9201
    MCC 311 (Default)
    MNC 370 (Default)
    APN type: mms

    Or the easiest way to do it would be just to edit the two current (GCI) APNs and change in the APN where ‘gci’ is listed to ‘acs’.

    My lte wasn't working when I flashed to cm10 yesterday. I did the steps you stated, deleted all other apn other than the rogerslte one and restarted my phone. It has been working since then.

    Carrier? could you post your settings for help with the guide? If they look exactly the same, just say theyre the same...

    I'm with Rogers, everything is the same except for the mms protocol. I left mine blank instead of Wap 2.0

    Could users of other AOSP ROMs comment on does it stick on reboot?
