    If anyone might have an idea how to help it would be much appreciated. I have a rooted Note 2 (was just to take the Samsung bloat off it that was killing the battery) and am on 3 Billpay. Do i need to flash the specific 3 Ireland Modem/radio back on to the device to be able to pick up 4g? Would love to try it out and when I spoke to 3 Customer Care they gave me instructions that said 4g should be there available in my network and it wasn't and am assuming that's done to me flashing different firmware onto the phone. Would anyone have any solutions please?

    I have a Note 2 and 4G is not available on it. Maybe check is your Note 4G enabled.

    Didn't think 4g was on the note 2, unless they released a fancy international version or something...

    I'm sure the Note 3 has though...

    If you have a Note 2 N7100 then it's 3G only.
    However if you have the N7105 then it should have 4G.

    To find out:-
    Menu
    Settings
    More tab
    About device
    Look at the "Model Number" field

    If you bought the phone in Ireland then unfortunately there's a good chance it's the 3G model.
