A caboodle of developers over onthe XDA forumshave been tinker with the Nexus 4 to see if they can persuade it to dally nice with LTE . Turns out that , despite a lack of signal amplifier and filter , it can palm the high - velocity connection . Kind of .
The developers have show up that LG ’s phone can be force onto an LTE web — but only one one that usesLTE band 4 , which runs at 1700MHz and 2100MHz . If you ’re marvel , that band is used by Telus and Rogers in Canada and AT&T in the US .
The finding builds onAnandtech ’s call from last week :
“ Band 4 ( AWS ) could essentially be supported with the office amplifiers and transceiver that already are onboard the Nexus 4 , but again it ultimately comes down to a particular OEM choice whether these get supported . ”
And it can ! The speed cost increase over HSPA seems meek , but it ’s there . Clearly Google opted out of ply LTE support as standard — presumptively because of it being a nuisance in the ass to coiffure internationally — but the pinch remains a labor for the tinker . [ XDA DevelopersviaVerge ]
