For t-mobile the build.prop should be as follows.

ro.product.model=SGH-T889

ro.product.device=t0ltetmo

ro.product.name=t0ltetmo

Be sure to save changes and reboot.

i did but still on 4g for some reason.
I even checked the apn.
But still on 4g. Maybe modem? Which 1 should i try.

are you sure you are in the area where T Mobile has LTE? Or you are just in the refarmed 1900 region? have you run speed test to see if you are getting let speed and the icon just showing 4G as oppose to LTE? Is your phone T Mobile note 2 or ATT Note 2? Mine is ATT note 2 and hence I change the build prop to t0lteatt

btw, I noticed that in your screen shot, you have the ro.product.device list at "t0lte", I have that as "t0lteatt" and the line above as "t0lteatt". If you are on the T Mobile, you prob need to match both name and device to the Tmo version.

I have a T889 on 4.3 bootloader and Iget the 4g lte icon on both beta 1 and beta2. I am using AGNi kernel also. No need to change build.prop from my end. See image with 4g lte icon.

To other post yes it does. Android upgrading every time it reboots.

I did check my about phone its umts and hspa+ and I have a t-mobile s4 which gets lte in my area. And installed beta 2 from different Rom by wiping off everything (data, system and internal memory) but still on 4G aka umts and hspa+. My Device is the Att Note 2 and ive done the speed test mostly around 5 mb/s to 8mb/s down and 2mb/s to 3mb/s for upload.

this is odd as I am also using this on T mobile and was able to get let speed and signal icon without any issue after adjusting the build.prop. maybe you want to check the radio band to make sure it is enabled and not set to hspa. Unfortunately, I cannot use *#*#4636#*#* after flashing this rom, so you may need to use playstore app for that.

What app would you prefer me to use and what is your baseband version.

when I looked at my network mode. I see mine is set as "manual". I originally unlock my phone with the thread posted in the the main page (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2176720) and I do believe I also use the same setting there to lock to LTE as well. not sure if that make any difference.

I've used the same method to unlock as well but I've flashed many more baseband. Tell me the name you have in yours right now.

Anybody install this on the T-mobile Note II? If so how does it run?

Thank you

Yes been running beta 2 with Agni 4.2.1 kernel for over a week. rebooted once on fist day, Also today audio went out after installing Viper4Android and had to reboot.

But all the 4.4.2 and S5 features work very nice.

My install: in installation I installed with out tweaks and stock kernel let fir for about 10 minutes
then flashed SU and Agni Kernel.

Shutting off all sync I had 41% battery left after 15 hours with 3.23 hours of on screen.
Also installed in Xposed DVFS Disabler and Battery calibrator.
in settings >wifi >advance >un-ticked always allow scanning.

No need to flash modem, note it does now have the ATT model number not tmobile.

Enjoy.

audio issues:

1) When head phones are plugged in and receiving a text messages, the audio notification goes out to in phone speaker and head set, impossible to be discreet in quiet areas..
2) Audio completely dies out until phone is rebooted, happens when watching a video and leave and comes back to it. This causes all sound to stop working.
3) When phone calls come in and I leave phone on my desk at work and i'm away, the phone reads out the name of who is calling.

does anyone have a fix or know a workaround?

Thanks in advance.

    Need testers. Based off official Samsung firmware . Everyone welcome to test. Please leave constructive feed back in this thread. I will monitor, and use your feedback to create a solid note 2 Rom. It will never have note 3 features, only ones that come in official note 2 firmware. That being said, I will add as many S5 apps as possible. I will move this to the development section once it's out of testing.

    So far contains:

    Build prop edicts - thanks E-Team - removed for now.
    S5 launcher w/pullup & pullup2
    S5 weather
    S5 mms
    De-odexed
    Secthemechooser in launcher menu

    more - will update later with more thanks and features soon.

    Instructions:

    Make A backup

    Flash Rom, make a few decisions, let boot and settle, go back into recovery, then flash su zip, reboot, let settle till you get signal bars, then continue setup. Once setup is done,, set ATT APN, reboot, then test it.

    If you don't understand these instructions, you should not be a tester. :sly:
