Not getting 4G on Straight Talk with my S5?

[MikDi]

I have an unlocked verizon branded Galaxy S5 that I'm using on ST's network, but the fastest speeds I'm getting are H or H+. My phone is 4G LTE capable, so what's up with this?

Welcome to Android Central.

Is a 4G signal available in your area?
If so, is your phone set to receive it, in Settings, Mobile Networks, Preferred Network Mode?

Yes, and yes I believe so?

Are you using the Verizon Sim Card from Straight Talk? Also are the APN settings correct?

I believe so. That's the thing though, I have seen countless APN settings online that claim to fix this issue, but I have yet to try any that worked.

You should call Straight Talk directly then. My mother's phone had a apn issue and I couldn't figure it out, I called them and the reset the network on her phone and the apn load onto the phone and everything worked again. They should ask for the make and model of your phone, then read you out the apn settings for it. Hope this helps.
