PagePlus does not activate an LTE phone on their "low-end" plan but allows a modified LTE phone to be activated. I used an app to make it CDMA only but PagePlus still cannot activate it saying it has some issues because their system still thinks it is LTE. I wonder if I have to something special on the phone.
I unlocked fast boot. The phone is not yet rooted.
Any help is appreciated.
Network connections? Set preffered to 3G/2G.
@kyzn is right with going to Settings > More > Cellular networks > Preferred network type and selecting 3g. This does not mean it will be in 3g only because 2g is there for a backup network signal in case that the 3g or higher signal is lost. Shouldn't be problem for you with what you are asking.
If you would like a little more info here is a link to the similar OP

Grab this app, it'll take you to a menu which lets you select the mode you want.

Friend's Here is the way to set 2nd SIM on 2G only.(As on 2G I feel voice network is much better and battery consumption is pretty low)
1) Deactivate 1st SIM completely.( which I believe generally we use for data)
2)Activate SIM 2 .
3) SELECT Network mode 2G only(instead of. 2G/3G/4G)
4) Now Activate SIM 1, and activate data.
(Network mode now automatic changed to 2G/3G/4G)
Hi guys, I'm new to the forum and I live in Venezuela, I get the following thing I bought a blu r1hd of 16 gb on amazon, I got the computer and configured it to update to version 7.4.2, my sim Card is 3g, but then of the update marks me to 4g and the signal goes up and down, I have no connection to the internet or calls even having signal, suddenly changes to 3g and that's when I enter data and calls
The problem is that I really do not know what to do.
I hope, guys help me :crying:

Ok I change it but it only gives me these options
Preferred network type
2g / 3g / 4g lte
2g / 3g / 4g
3g / 4g
2g only
If I put it in 2g only, it allows me to make calls
The problem of the update is that I add a new option called
4G LTE MODE IMPROVED when turning off the signal
How can I remove the X mark under the network bar when mobile data active ? Someone help me. Thanks.
I'm using Rom Resurrection remix oreo latest
It is a sign of poor connection or wrong settings. I have seen this a lot of times with jio 4g sim.
Go to dialer and type *#*#4636#*#* -> phone information-> change network type to lte only or lte preferred or global and then change same as in preferred network type type in settings->that 4g sim settings. Wait for sometimes, if nothing changes, reboot phone, it should work.
Hi friends, we all generally hate it when network automatically switches to the mode in which phone gets strong signal. I mean we really don't like when phone automatically switches to 3G or 2G mode from 4G when the signal of 4G is weak. Since there is no "Only LTE" mode in our device (Honor 9 lite) we need to enable it. How good it'd be when we could enable it without rooting.
Here's the process:
1. Download "Settings Database Editor" (attached below)
2. Open the app
3. Find "hw_networkmode_preference"
You will see its value like "9,3,2,1"
4. Edit this value as "9,3,2,1,11"
5. Save
6. Reboot
Now go to settings > wireless & networks > mobile network > preferred network type
You will see so many network options unlocked.
Select "LTE" to stay in LTE mode no matter how weak 4G signal you have there.
* Root is not required*

You must be using airtel. FYI Airtel doesn't support voice over 4G. It's their problem. In order to make calls from airtel select LTE/wcdma
