    Yes, so more confusion introduced by T-Mobile marketing... :laugh: The 3G option you see on OmniRom is refering to HSPA+. Since OmniRom is not branded by T-Moblie, their marketing people did not have the opportunity to change the 3G in the options to 4G, and the H in the status bar to...

    Post [ROM][4.4.4] OmniROM for the Galaxy Exhibits/Ace 2 E [T599 | T599N | T599V | T599x]

    Sorry, but the T599 does not support LTE. Unfortunately, "4G" is used by marketing departments of the various phone carriers to mean many different things. In the past, T-Mobile has marketed their HSPA+ network (thus the H you see displayed on the phone) as "4G". Currently, T-Mobile markets...

    I can confirm this happens to me as well. GPS locking appears to be slow, taking a minute or two to lock. The other ROMs (Vaniar, CM 11, Omni ) also appear to do the same.
