If you are clueless about the existing settings that enable you to switch network mode, goto “Settings > More networks > Mobile networks > Network mode”.
Steps:
Step 1 : From the phone dialer, dial *#2263# and the smartphone will bring you into the “Service Mode” screen like below.
Step 2 : Select “[4] LTE BAND PART1 []” and the smartphone will bring you into a screen to select the types of LTE mode.
Step 3 : Select “[1] LTE ALL []” to force the smartphone to use only 4G(LTE) connection.
Note : The instructions above have been verified with my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910C, Android OS 4.4.4). If you have a tried this method on different smartphone, please leave me a comment whether it works for you or not.

ReplyDeleteHow you learn this?
Some Note 4s are sold arent 4G enabled. What a con job Samsung, as I discover this 3 months later
ReplyDeleteHow is it Samsung's fault you bought the wrong phone? I had a Note 2 until recently. It didn't have LTE but some models did. However, I knew the factory unlocked international version didn't have LTE so I didn't blame Samsung.
DeleteJust tried it on my T-Mobile Note 4, and it worked like a charm. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteAlso worked on my T-Mobile Note 4 (aka SM-N910T) on official Android 6.0.1.
DeleteIt is not working on my Note 4 , N910F
ReplyDeleteIt works! Thanks! N910C. Just be reminded though when using forced LTE, No 4G network means no data or even cellular signal.
ReplyDeleteWork on my s5 at kitkat but did not when lollipop
ReplyDeleteWork like charm brother ! May god bless you!! Luckily i found a way for note 4 without rooting ! XD
ReplyDelete*#2263# does not work for my Huawei Honor 4x, please suggest me the code to reach Service mode?
ReplyDeleteUse this code
Delete*#*#4636#*#*
Its not working the code in Samsung galaxy grand prime please help me out from this
ReplyDeleteworks for me... globe telecom philippines... however cannot make & receive phone call.
ReplyDeleteWorked fine with me! Note4 running on Lollipo.
ReplyDeleteI followed your directions and it showed it was restricted...
ReplyDeleteOk guys this only works with newer Samsung phones. It will not work on any other brand of smart phones. So if you have a non Samsung phone it will not work.
ReplyDeleteworks fine, Note 4 Android 5.1 in Canada. Recent factory reset for some reason removed the LTE connection under Settings->More Networks->Mobile Networks->Network Mode. I set it to select option 1 AUTOMATIC and even after reboot it connects to LTE and switches to 3g for calls. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteWill i be able to change it back whenever i like and if so how?
ReplyDeleteYes. Use back the Android settings page "Network Mode" and choose any network. It will revert back to the standard settings.
DeleteCould anyone help me please... how for samsung A5... anyone know?
ReplyDeleteHi. I have a samsung A8
ReplyDelete4G coverage does not seem to work. Will your instructions work forthis phone too?
Its works, its shows 4g, but my signal kept on flactuating.. or its always on 2 bar signal only??
ReplyDeleteIt didn't work on my notes 4 SM-N910C running android 5.1.1. Please tell me. it's my E.Mail Adress. usmanbashir12547@gmail.com
ReplyDelete*#2263# didn't work? I guess it depends on what chip your phone is running. Do you have the qualcomm, or exynos?
ReplyDeleteNot working
ReplyDeleteNot working on my Note4 N910c
ReplyDeleteIf you are using any of the following devices in America 4G LTE will not work. N910F (Europe); N910K/N910L/N910S (Korea); N910C (Asia, Europe, South America) the USA uses a different 4G LTE band that is not available on those devices.
ReplyDeleteI have the N910S and live in the US. My LTE works fine

Hi there, thanks technocrat for this..its been a great help..it works with my galaxy a7..
ReplyDeletethis code is fake
ReplyDeleteNo it is not.
DeleteThis code does not work on At&t, or verizon. To get it to work with those carriers you have to call them and ask for your carrier unlock code. They will ask for your IMEI code and then they will issue an unlock code. Once your phone is unlocked you should be able to access this secret menu. To enter the unlock command without inserting an alternate simcard go to your dialer and enter #7465625*638*#

ReplyDelete:) Hi Guys,
ReplyDeleteGalaxy Note4 N910H(V6.0.1) not working with *#2263#. And my calcula in Cambodia.
So how can I enable 4G ?
Thank for your advance.
My Galaxy Note 4 has a issue. When in LTE/WCDMA/GSM mode there is no cellular signal and I am not able to make and receive calls. When I select GSM mode or WCDMA/GSM mode then the phone signal is good and working properly BUT I am only getting the 2G and 3G speeds.
ReplyDeleteI have done hours of troubleshooting with Samsung Australian support service and also with Amaysim. The sim card is 4G, new and works fine with 4G on my old phone. This issue I am describing occurred with two different sim cards that both function well on other phones.
I have lived in a 4G area for 18 months and have had a fairly consistent 4G service.
I ended up researching and finding some information that I believe may fix the issue.
My theory is that because the phone comes from China, it may not have the settings for 'All GTE' but rather it could be set for other countries.
I want to access service mode to check for the GTE Band settings but the code referred to in the website gives a response 'Invalid MMI code' and Samsung Australian support is not able to assist.
I wondered if it can be accessed through Developer options? I don't know how to do any of that.
