Just a note to users who are not getting LTE signal on your GT-I9195:

Please contact your service provider to ensure your phone line and SIM card are both 4G/LTE-capable before you diagnose it as a device issue.

S4 mini LTE only H+ not 4G Need Help

Hi everyone,

I am quite new here so please bare with me.
I am planning to buy this phone 'S4 mini GT-i9195' unlocked version in US and would be using it AT&T SIM. Could anyone here please confirm if it would support LTE speeds?
I read in this thread about rooting and enabling this LTE option, 'przem00' it would be great if you could explain in details about this proc.

Thanks in advance.

The I9195 doesn't support AT&T's LTE bands. You would only get up to 3G. You can however get an unlocked I257M model from Canada and use for AT&T with LTE.

I'm pretty sure the I9195 cannot support AT&T 4G at all, but maybe rooting or software could change that, I'm not sure.
I've seen them on CanadaGSM and some other sites but I got one off eBay for about $390 USD + $16 shipping.

Would look for it on eBay.

I am also in the US and picked up an unlocked I9195 S4 mini. I am on AT&T and I know my SIM card is 4G capable because if I put it in my old AT&T phone, it shows 4G and 4G LTE.
In the specs for the i9195 it says it has 4G capability but wiisixtyfour is stating that the 4G does not work on AT&T...

Can anyone confirm this is 100% true?
Can anyone confirm if rooting it will enable 4G / 4G LTE?

Yes gt-i9195 does not support at&t lte bands.. i was disappointed too. I could have bought the cheaper model of the mini

Oh, to add to my statement, software will not enable it. The lte bamds are strictly hardware. That is true as far as I know. If anyone else knows different feel free to correct me

Nope, I am in Singapore and do not have this issue. Are you on stock ROM?

S4 Mini's LTE radio supports:
LTE Band 3 (1,800MHz), Band 7 (2,600MHz), Band 8 (900MHz), Band 20 (800MHz)

Vodafone Portugal supports Band 20 (800MHz), Band 3 (180 MHz) and Band 7 (2600MHz)

So it should work.

please help, my 3g not work with 900Mhz Band Wcdma, im from Venezuela and using Digitel, sorry for my bad english. :crying:
