lml2128 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Recently I bought a Truemove H Prepay SIM 4G LTE (Manchester United) pack at MBK. After I inserted the SIM card into my Samsung Galaxy S4 LTE (i9505), I could only detect H+/H/3G for mobile internet, and never on 4G network before. Is there anyone could help me to solve this problem? Thank you Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomatopo Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Did you configure an APN? Subscribe to a 4G plan? Did you verify your device works with 2100 MHz (Band 1) LTE? http://truemoveh.truecorp.co.th/checkdevice It looks like the I9505 does support Band 1 LTE. Where did you buy your phone? What is the baseband? TrueMove H do have fairly limited coverage with 2100 MHz LTE, central Bangkok and Suvarnabhumi AIrport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lml2128 Posted September 4, 2013 Author Share Posted September 4, 2013 I have not subscribe to any plans yet. But for sure i9505 is compatible with 2100MHz LTE. I bought the phone in Australia. Baseband is I9505DVUBMG1, it's an unlocked Australia version. I have set the APN, and that's the reason why it could connect to TrueMove H 3G+ network. Is there any difference of APN setting for 4G LTE network? By the way, this is a prepaid card, not postpaid plan. I live at Sukhumvit 18, and travel around central Bangkok most of the time (eg Siam and Silom). Thanks a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomatopo Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I think you need to: 1.) configure a known good APN. 2.) subscribe to an LTE-capable plan. 3.) maybe toggle Set preferred network type: LTE/GSM auto (PRL) Probably best to stop by a TrueMove shop given the number of configuration variables.

lomatopo Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 According to the TrueMove H support pages the APN settings for Real Move/2100 LTE are a bit different from CAT/850. APN type: default,hipri Authentication type: none I assume that if you have subscribed to a LTE plan (iSmart), for which there may be a 99 baht/month surcharge. This surcharge may be waived for some promotional period. I assume you have to enable roaming so you can roam onto the Real Move 2100 MHz 3G network, and the CAT/850 MHz 3G network? Again, with a properly provisioned plan and service from Real Move, coverage, a properly configured phone you should be able to get 3G/LTE. It seems like you have the most current baseband for your model, and one assumes it can interwork with Real Move's 4G/LTE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
