If it is a Verizon phone you will not be able to get LTE on AT&T. Best you could do is root it and unlock band 4 which AT&T uses in limited areas.

Thanx bro. One more question is it a big speed difference between H+ and LTE?

Cool so you think it's a headache to root the phone just because to change that? How difficult of a task would that be?

rooting the phone will not change the hardware.
Your phone is physically missing the hardware to work with tmobiles network. It was designed for Verizons network instead.

If you can find somewhere where att band 4 is deployed then you should be able to get 4glte. Keep in mind that att band 4 deployment is very limited

Just out of curiosity
What did you use to Sim unlock the Verizon version.
I have a t-mobile note 3 that I unlocked for straight talks AT&T Sim and I always thought h+ was like a tweaked 4G
But Idk if straight talks Sims even support lte yet. At least the most recent one I got doesn't.
Mine is rooted and has a custom rom and network shows 4glte maybe it supports it or its a placebo effect

The Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is factory sim unlocked.
