Hello Everyone,
Hopefully this issue can be solved, as I'm using stock Android JB 4.1.2 (E97510h-EUR-XX) on my device and there is no LTE option in:
- System Settings> More...> Mobile Networks> Network Mode
Now, I believe it can be enabled by making a change to persist.radio.lteon as found here:
- https://community.vodafone.ie/t5/Network/Supported-4G-Phones/td-p/137830/page/1
However, it requires root access and as far as I'm aware, there is no root exploit for E97510h-EUR-XX at this time:
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2249033&page=2
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2163814&page=5
Here are my questions:
1. Is there any method to replace or edit persist.radio.lteon without rooting my device?
2. If 1 is not an option, is there any method to successfully root my device?
3. If 2 is possible, can I unroot and will this process be undetectable?
Any help is much appreciated :good:

My device was bought Sim Free from a UK company, just last year in fact and I'm not bothered if it was officially released there or not, as I have this epic mobile
Now, lets focus on the software issue, can anyone please answer my questions or suggest a better solution?

He hasn't bought a Korean Optimus G, but an E975. But for some reason if you put a SIM card from one carrier in the phone you cannot choose LTE, but if you put in a SIM from a different carrier you get the option to choose LTE. That's because LG has had the brilliant idea to block LTE for some carriers on an LTE enabled phone.
You can try contacting LG so they release an update so that LTE will be enabled for your carrier, but it would be faster to root your phone and adjust the build.prop like you said in the first post.

doesnt matter where mobile is form .. dont u see i bought from korea and europe soft was working but no lte so why he cant put korean onto european ?!?!?! it will still work + with lte enabled ..
contact lg god .. it is not down to them how do u want contact them and yeah they will tell you omg we are sooo sooryy we will correct it for you .. fkin pathetic .. they will crap on u .. man
lg doesn't block nobody .. the carrier needs send u setting .. dont u remember when 3g came up they been sending settings over SMS ? APN settings and MMS settings ? nowdays it is up to carrier send update over network NOT via sms .. and those carriers who has settings ready then 4g doesnt work ..

Why bother putting Korean software on your European phone and risk having a bad experience (due to the fact that Korean software is guess what optimized for Korean carriers)? When you can just root your device and change the build .prop which is less trouble and less risky to perform than to put a Korean software on it.
But to answer the question of the TS. You can root the E975 10 H firmware. I used Framaroot, and it works fine. You can read all about in the thread FAQ (Freaking Annoying Questions) in the Q and A section.

risky ? how can be risky .. so people here happily flashing third party roms and that's alright and when try to use original official rom then is risky ????! man are you OK?
optimized for their carriers ? no .. only APPS are included .. and those apps can be easily ignored ..
i think that your buildprop editing is risky .. ordinary people wont be messing with customizing files
wait for carrier till end of march then
I dont need to read nothing for me all working am enjoying LTE(4G) u dont it is your problem what u do ..
do what u want ..
Chill out dude. I'm only trying to help the TS out. He didn't ask anything about flashing a ROM, only to solve his problem with or without root.
Flashing any custom ROM is more risky than rooting a device. As it involves more steps then just rooting. So why make it hard for yourself?
Flashing a Korean ROM would mean flashing a KDZ file (that's the way I changed the E975 10 H back to E975 10 D) and that process probably changes the baseband of your phone(which is not the right one for the E975), so it could definitely influence the experience and battery life, etc.
You say that ordinary people won't mess with the build.prop file but they won't have any problem with flashing a Korean ROM?
BTW: There is no need in quoting the very last post everytime you make a comment, as it is clear what you're replying on.

That quote button has reason to be there .. that is why am using it ... And people know which answer belongs to particular person ..
for me is easy flash kdz ... and then obviously u need to flash modem back .. that is not hard too ..
And u are right in only one thing .. yes when people changing roms flashing then phone drains battery .. yes when I converted to E975 my F180S battery was very very bad .. I flashed original korean back and battery is much much better .
Like I said you can try korean if no leave it and wait for carrier to sort it out .. but they have time tho
No one here recommends to flash korean kdz in international versions nd vice versa too... Try some othr rooting methods nd try to change the build.prop.... Have yu tried moto chopper root method...??
Edit: looks lyk moto chopper method doesn't help yu... Yu cant yu downgrade ur software nd root it....

This makes sense and I've already contacted LG, they have been useless so far, so will see what they come up with next

This might be a noob question, how can I tell which version of e988 I have? I have a optimus g pro that I got from doha Qatar, trying to flash back to stock with lg flash tool, I need to find out which version of the e988 I have so that I can download the correct files. Another question is that no matter when I was on stock or with custom Rom, I am not able to get the speed pass edge. Does my phone not have the T-Mobile 3g/lte frequencies? Is that why I'm stuck on edge speed with tmobile network? Help please, thanks in advance.
You will need to use e980 in the US to get 3G/4G speeds on TMobile or ATT. E988 does not support the necessary frequency bands for US carriers. If you can exchange it do it.

No wonder I couldn't get any 3g/4g speed..... it's little too late for the exchange, would you tell me how I can tell which version of e988 I.have so that i can download the right files.

Hello,
I am using LG Optimus G Kirean version for over 6 months. Phone/Battery life everything is great. Recently official kit kat update was released and now it is running KK. The only problem is that as I am using it in Pakistan I can't use Data Network or 3G. I talked to my network operator and they say phone must be converted to English rom then it will work.
The problem is that I am really a noob at this and don't want to brick my phone. So is there any easy and low risk method to convert my phone to English version without losing signals or any other problem. If possible please give a detailed step by step method as I am really new here.
Here are details:
F180-K
Android Version 4.4.2
Kernel Version 3.4.0
Build Number KOT49I.F180K30c

That is answer from someone at the network operator who not know the anything about the phone or data in general.
You just need the setting for data network to make it work Data & 3G will work on the same Korean rom however no operator video call because that feature is specific to Korean operator in the Korean rom.
There are many guides available in the forum and making Backup of your phone is a good idea before doing anything
Well I have done settings multiple time and settings are 100% correct however data or 3g doesn't work. They say that this phone stores settings in Korean at the backend and network can't read it.

Thanks a lot. I was about to give up. Then I tried one more time for APN and it works now
Check for 3G bands in 3845#*180#
You should be GSM 900/1800 for Calling and
UMTS 2100 for 3G
And setting should be WCDMA preffered or GSM/WCDMA

Hi everyone , sorry to bother with this totally noob question but i want to be sure about one thing , my lg g3 model number so that i can find the right roms and root guide. I bought my phone unlocked in taiwan , i was wondering if someone could tell me what i would use as my model number when searching for compatible custom roms. From what i understand i should use 10m but i wana be sure before i attempt to root. I have included an screenshot of my device info. Thanks in advance for time guys

First of all, 10m is your software version, not model number. The 10m just means you are on firmware version 10m. Seeing as you bought your phone in Taiwan, you most likely have an Asian variant such as the F400 or F400k. You may possibly have an international D855, but it's impossible to tell from your picture. Take your battery cover off and let me know what model number you see on the sticker under the battery. The same model number should be plastered all along the inside edges of the phone once the battery cover is removed as well. Like I said, it should be F400, F400k, D855, or something similar. Please let me know.
Thanks for your help. I looked behind the cover and its a D855. So when i search for compatible roms and stuff i should look for that model numer? Thanks for patience with ny ignorance man lol
Ok so thanks again for ur quick help. Ive done alot more reading now and im ready to root my phone, one thing ive had trouble finding is the stock firmware for my device if anything should go wrong or if i want to dl the OTA lollypop update i just received in the future. My current firmware is v10m-TWN-xx and i havr d855 16gb, i could only find the 32gb version. Would really appreciate it if someone lets me know where i could get the 16gb. Thanks guys!
Hello my friends
I just had arrived in Canada with my D855P bought in Brazil... I had flashed it with a UK v20e and I can't get LTE working with Rogers. Does anybody know what I need to do ?
Thanks a lot !

Im pretty sure LTE will not work. Best thing would be to check if APN for rogers is right. Or try to trade for d852. Where in Canada are you?

You cannot. And if you do , you could end up with a brick. That flash tool checks model in build prob i think , thats why if you flash wrong rom it will not work restoring with flashtool

@hmaqueda I have a D855 and can confirm that LTE works on Rogers/Fido. From my research the D855P is capable of connecting to LTE on Rogers (LTE Band 7 [2600 MHz]). I have written a guide over in the General section, here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-enabling-lte-d855-flashing-t2878434
If you have any problems, please let me know. Hope this helps!
