Smile Need help with 46re transmission

I replaced the solenoids and the speed sensor and output speed sensor. But my transmission is still shifting at 3000 rpm. 1st to 2nd gear is 3000 rpm and second to 3rd is 3000 rpm but after 3rd it shifts fine.... PLEASE HELP

How's the TV cable? Adjusted too tight, or sticking, perhaps?

Well I've adjusted it to the factory specs and no change.. So I adjusted way tight and way to lose to see if there was a difference.. There was no difference

The bands didn't look wore out when I replaced the solenoids.. Just normal wear. But I thought I should adjust them just to see what would happen.. Which one needs to be adjusted?

Both. I think the front band is for reverse.... (the one you need to be inside the trans to adjust) I think....... Can try doing the easy one first, and see if it makes any difference.
