[Q] No 4g in D955? - LG G Flex

hey guys i just got my 4g lte sim and i have an unlocked lg g flex d955. Now, I can't find a 4g or lte toggle on my phone. In mobile networks, it's only letting my select either gsm, wcdma or gsm/wcdma. So how to i enable 4g lte on my phone?
thanks
Edit:
ok so I enabled lte via the secret menu using the code in the dialler app and 4g is now working but when i restart, it goes back and i have to enable it from the secret menu again. any way to permanently set this??

Use *#*#info#*#* for network mode
Or Build.prop editing.
Make a nandroid 1st and Use Jrummy Build.prop editor from Google play. U have to be rooted.
Ro.telephony.network =9

thanks for the reply. yes I have used the code to switch to LTE. I am not rooted so cant do build.prop editing. Is there any other method? I'm surprised why 4g lte option is not in settings by default in LG flex :s

If you don't have LTE network and enable LTE or Auto LTE it will consume more battery due to signal searching...
Set ur network Mode to GSM WCDMA LTE

oh yes it is set to GSM WCDMA LTE. i meant there is not GSM WCDMA LTE by default in my phone in settings app and have to again and agaain after rrestarting in the secret menu to set it..

Use 3845#*955#
Or 5457#*955#
And change Band and RAT settings for LTE

Fix for losing LTE

After trying searching today countless apps and signal booster apps i finally found one that worked. I tried Viaero Toggle app from the play store and now have a constant 4g signal. I have tested 2 methods on the app. Tried a method setting my preferred network to just LTE and CDMA/LTE. Setting it to just LTE works except you have an X over your signal bars, CDMA/LTE doesnt.
1. Download the Viaero toggle app
2. Select phone information
3. Scroll down where it says preferred network
4. Select LTE or LTE/CDMA
This is for people who KNOW their supposed to have an LTE connection. I used to own a GS3 and had a constant LTE signal. Switching to the ONE my LTE constantly jumps from LTE to 3G which was my biggest gripe. Now I'm in love with my ONE all over again. So if you know you have this issue. This will help trust me.
Let me know your results. I really want to work for everyone because this has been pissing me off for the longest. I had even switched out for a second HTC one and they both had signal issues. If it doesnt help let me know and we can try other methods for different people.
The 2 pics i attached is one with just LTE and the other is LTE/CDMA
You know that X over the signal bars mean you no longer have a voice connection right? Kind of defeats the purpose of a phone

The better way of doing this would be to use the ##DATA# shortcut (provided you have your MSL), but you certainly can do this.

Thanks for the shortcut since I keep forgetting it. I just gave it a try. I was able to switch to CDMA LTE only and my LTE switched back on from 3G almost instantly. Sweet! Looks like I'll be using this feature quite often. :thumbup:

Neither the App nor the menu has provided 4G / LTE. Funny thing is that on 4.3 ROM's I don't get LTE, but 4.2 and lower it's a non-issue. Any ideas?
Funny thing is I have no APN's. When I try to manually add them they don't save.

Who uses their phone for talking? What is this 2005?
Yup, i set it to WCDMA only but for some weird reason it switches back to WCDMA preferred after a while. I do it using the same method you've described.
If I set my phone to lte cdma it goes to gsm as my days connection. Am I missing something here? Thanks

The forum you're posting in right now is the Sprint HTC One M7 forum. You have the M8, therefore go to the Sprint HTC One M8 forum.
With the 4636 menu what setting should I be choosing to stay in 4G? I'm in Chicago and I have terrible 4G to 3G handoffs all the time.

[Q] is there any way to keep the phone from using LTE?

my phone is unlocked and i use tmobile service..
they just switched on LTE in my area.. and its working great.. i assigned a new APN (fast.t-mobile.com) and i get upwards of 18Mbps.. but..
in my house.. the LTE signal is 1 bar.. most of my calls go straight to VM and i sometimes dont get texts for hours..
in my house the 4g signal which was the default before is 3 to 4 bars.. i never had a problem receiving calls and texts when its on 4g.
so it seems now they have LTE service the phone favors that no matter what the signal is..
i cant find any options in the settings to turn off LTE and just use 4g.
i guess you can disregard this question.. i installed CM10.2 and it has the option to only use WCDMA instead of LTE..
this fixes my issue

Can you turn LTE off with *#*#4636*#*# menu?

Can someone test to see if this works on the AT&T Note 3? You dial *#*#4636*#*# and then you can change the network mode. I am just curious if it sticks. For example, if you tap on WCDMA/GSM auto, you'll only get 2G/H+.
Would appreciate it if someone can test this out. Thanks

Yea the menu is there here's a pic of the options for the AT&T note 3. I use it frequently while at work and set mine to lte only so I'm not bugged with phone calls but still have internet and text. It stays active until you turn off data, turn on airplane mode, reset the phone, or switch it back via that menu. There is also a wcdma preferred option at the top that wouldn't fit in the picture.

Unable to get LTE after Un-rooting
Sorry if this does not appear to belong here, but since I have un-rooted my AT&T Galaxy Note 3 (N900A) using the Root de la Vega One-Click with N900AUCUBMI9 I have note been able to get LTE back. My device defaults to HSPA/HSPA+. After using #*#*4636#*#* in Testing Menu -> Device Information, I cannot even change the preferred network type to anything that contains LTE in it - only GSM or WCDMA preferred is accepted.
I would appreciate any help whatsoever.
Thank you in advance

Try booting the phone without your SIM. Might let you do it. If not your going to have to redo Odin back to stock again.

[Q] is there a way to force LTE?

like my phone can just sit on 3G, in the same place,while not moving
but if i reboot my phone, it'll pop on to LTE (if its available in that area)
but i reboot it in known LTE areas (when showing 3G)
anyway to force LTE, without rebooting the phone?
or is there some time schedule where it checks to see if LTE is available that I can change?
Yes which model u have? Its in the secret menu

Hahaha you're absolutely right. I knew just by reading the thread. Sprint is the worst! My HTC One on Sprint was amazing but I couldn't ever hold on to an LTE connection for more then 30 seconds. Unlimited data is useless if your only on their horribly slow 3g
Sprint does suck, if i didnt have 4 other people on my account that would have to get new phones/account etc, I would have been switched.
but that video i think was to turn on LTE, my LTE is on, but for some reason wouldnt search/connect to LTE when it was available all the time
however i went into my mobile connection settings, and changed it from "LTE/CDMA" to Global
now it seems to switch to LTE when its in an LTE area. LTE icon comes up without me having to reboot, i'll keep a watch on it for a few days to see if indeed that was the solution
by the way, anybody now what the "global" option is? compared to LTE/CDMA

I'm pretty sure the global setting is to allow it to connect to GSM carriers in the event that the device is unlocked and the APN is changed accordingly.
I have the same problem in brazil, looks like a problem with the Phone. I had a Samsung S4 that worked with full signal in 4G in my home, now that I moved to LG G Flex it also works full signal 4G in home, but when I move to some place where is Edge then go Back to home, it never moves back to LTE automatically. I need to restart or change the NetworkMode manually to make it back working in 4G.
I think the phone has a problem to automatic search and change the Network mode.
anyone know how to enable only lte yet? i've tried all different kinds of secret menu codes and cant figure it out.
Answer
How to access the hidden service menu on LG G Flex:
For AT&T: Go to dialer and enter 3845#*950#
For T-Mobile: Go to dialer and enter 3845#*959#
For Sprint: Go to dialer and enter 3845#*995#
Once you're in the hidden menu, go to LTE-Only > Modem Settings > RAT Selection > LTE only
Enjoy!

[Q] LTE Engineering Screen

So the nexus 6 has been out for some time now and no engineering screens have come into view yet.. Has anyone got an idea if this was wiped altogether from this device or did they cram it under a special boot (similar to booting LG for diagnostics) to enable such menus?
Try #.#.4636.#.# from the dialer. it opens a testing menu for me
that aint working for me...none of the usual USSD codes seem to work. I have a Moto NX6 on VZW
If you want lte band and frequency info, try the app LTE Discovery. It has lots of info on the current signal.
On stock ROM my phone picks up sprint LTE fine if I try a custom ROM anyone it won't automatically connect and I would have to use the LTE discovery app .

Yeah, it seems it is not on this model at all. I was really bummed myself. I even side loaded the Nexus 5 field test mode app. It works, but has no access to the menus needed to turn on/off selected lte bands.

Yes the 4636 code works. But the DATA code (3282) does not. This gives you access to the screen with many more service options. Such as allowing you to turn on/off individual LTE bands etc.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/n5-hidden-field-test-mode-t2524744
4636 is a standard AOSP dialer function.
There use to be a debug menu for nothing but LTE / CDMA information? for what ever reason the nexus 6 doesn't offer this anymore vs the nexus 5 still does.. The app also doesn't port over. The only dialer codes that work still are ones related to the SprintDM app that was loaded on it for activation / resetting the device. I loved having the debug menu to see what LTE band I was connected to and control / force my LTE bands to specific ones for site testing (forcing 800mhz and or 2600mhz).
All is well I suppose if we don't ever see light of this.
