How do you activate the 4G feature?

In the system settings there is a button that says Cellular Data when you click on it you have the option to enable data on a monthly basis paid with a credit card. The process is easy and relatively quick. The other option is if you already have a carrier for your phone then you can go to your local store or call in to your customer service and they can assist you with adding it on to your existing account. This is the ideal way if you already have one of the new shared data plans that are popular on most carriers now.

I'm using a T-Mobile sim card. Usually have 3G, but do get "H+" with all 4 bars lit up meaning 4G according to my T-Mobile store.

It is a pre-paid phone. If you don't already have a 4G phone you will have to activate the SIM card that comes with this phone. If you do, you may still have to call T-Mobile to have your services from your old phone converted to this one.

You just need a 3G sim card and a 3G network. I've used it with 2G and 3G and the network switch it made automatically by the modem

You should have received a SIM card. You may want to look through all of the contents because it's tiny. Once you have that, you can contact Verizon or follow the link provided to activate it online.

You dont have to activate the plan ... as soon as you put the sim in and register it should start working .. if it doesnt work ... return the sim

No you don't. Very strong 3G signal though. The 4G router costs about double what this one is. This is a great investment and I have no regrets with this one.

I have purchases this handset in Oct 2014 and I moved to US. I purchased 4G LTE sim card from T Mobile. I can see LTE/WCDMA/GSM option under Network Mode. I have selected that mode. I can see H+ symbol only and having speed as 5 to 8 MBPS. I haven't get 4G / LTE symbol on top most bar near Signal bar. Is possible to get 4G speed using T Mobile on Note 3 4G / LTE N9005 handset?

You can do it yourself from home, go to Verizon website, and it tell you how to activate. That's how I did mine. It took five minutes.

Hi Stefano, this unit does not have a 3G or 4G feature. It might be on some other models, but on our end on the Helix models, we do not carry the ones with a 3G or 4G feature. Thanks, PCrush

No 4G. Also, this phone is outdated and runs very slow, go with a Nexus 4 or 5 instead.

You can activate it on other service providers. That use sprints network. I activated mine with Ting, it was really easy and had it working within 5 minutes.

I think the SIM card has to be that of your service provider and you need to call whoever you choose as your service provider to activate it. In my case, my SIM card was provided by AT & T and I called them to set up monthly service for my phone. They sent me a special device to connect my phone to and convert this land-line phone to wireless service. Good luck!

I believe that I had to activate it. I was porting over a number, so this involved needing to activate it.

We do not understand what you are asking, this phone is wifi capable and you must have a carrier plan to use the 4G

I don't think so. I bought this as a backup device in case my primary phone fails, so I had to turn it on to check. In settings, I checked the network information and all it referenced was 3G. No mention of 4G. Hope this helps.

does this boost your 4g ? for example if i'm at an area with 3g will it boost it up to 4g?
