Determine if LTE is turned on?

I am trying to write a widget so I can enable/disable LTE on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus without going deep into the settings menu to do so. However, I have yet to figure out how to determine if LTE is actually turned on. I can determine if my phone currently has a LTE signal or an EVDO signal, but not if LTE is enabled when the phone has an EVDO signal.

Does anyone have some suggestions on where to look in the Android Developers Reference? I have tried TelephonyManager & ConnectivityManager but so far neither is working for me.

See this link : http://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/TelephonyManager.html and on this you can find an example : http://developer.android.com/training/efficient-downloads/connectivity_patterns.html

You have to use the following function : TelephonyManager.getNetworkType()

Have you tried this?

TelephonyManager telephonyManager = (TelephonyManager) context.getSystemService( Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE );
boolean isLTEConnected = telephonyManager.getNetworkType() == TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_LTE;
