No 4G/LTE

I'm having an issue with my unlocked Xperia X Performance Dual Sim (international version) where I don't get an LTE signal at all. I have AT&T as my service provider in the United States and made sure I had the correct APN settings. I have tried restarting the phone, resetting, fixing the software through My PC Companion, and taking it to the AT&T store so they can troubleshoot as well. I'm starting to think it's an issue with the phone itself. Anybody have any suggestions?

Did they added the phone's IMEI number to their database? it seems that sometimes 4G/LTE doesn't work unless they do so and/or they enable it.

BTW, which APN settings are you using?

Yup, they used the IMEI when they activated the Sim card.

I'm using the mobile.att.net settings.

That didn't work for me. The Nextgen doesn't give me data coverage. I have to use either the AT&T or Cingular APN to get data. Only getting 3G.

Odd, and the SIM card it's new correct? 

What if you pull down the notification bar > pull down again > LTE > is it on? 

also

settings > more > Mobile networks > Preferred network type > LTE (preferred) 

also double check the 4G LTE coverage in your area.

Yes to all of them. I had LTE coverage on my previous phone almost everywhere, which was an Xperia Z1.

Hi @brainFireTony,

Welcome to the community.

Did you mean Nano SIM instead of Micro SIM? The Xperia X Performance uses Nano SIMs.

If you did get a Micro SIM, did you cut it to size?
