Hi guys, I'm the owner of the LG E980 by AT&T. I'm using it with the Telcel provider in Mexico, and i just can't change the network between 2g, 3g and 4g, or cdma and lte.All the time seems work on 4g or LTE mode. I've tried using the option in the dialer *#*#4636#*#* but in this options doesn't exist any option to switch this kind of networks. I wish any of you guys could help me. Thanks.

AT&T Likes to lock that kind of thing down. Telcel is not cdma I think you mean WDCMA which is 3G.
Anyway if You have a PC and some good computer skills check out my thread to flash the Telcel rom on your E980 and the option under mobile networks is there and working thats the rom I use on my AT&T E980

Not sure. All i know is when I put my t-mobile sim in mine I only get edge no 3G as I do know the bands for HSPA are not there but not sure about LTE
I had my att g pro on tmobile and got lte, when i get home i will put the tmobile sim card in and get the apn i use. That's all i did last time (insert sim and put apn manually)

I only got edge at first too but I know I live in a refarmed 1900 MHz area so I went under settings to network operators and searched networks manually and chose tmobile rat:14 when it gave me my options. Now I get 4g umts- hspap. I use wifi while home and after I leave sometimes it will revert back to edge. I went into the hidden menu but I didn't see how to select band prefence anywhere so im lost on how to get lte to work.
I know at&t and tmobile use the same lte band I just cant figure out how to select it to make it work. Try selecting setting>networks>tethering and networks>mobile networks>network operators>search networks. A few different tmobile ones should pop up with rat:2 rat:3 and rat:14 underneath. When I selected rat:2 it only stayed on edge but all other options gave me 4g.Hope that helps to at least get you 4g working.

Ok that would be great if you can post the complete apn your using. I have the fast.t-mobile but maybe another part of mine is incorrect...
I am pretty sure for LTE to work on T mobile, you have to make sure the apn is set to fast.tmobile.com. Your Sim might be setting it to the default epc.tmobile.com, which will only give you HSPA+.

I appreciate the help but for some reason it still wont get lte. I have tried all the different apns I can find and after I enter it if it still only goes to 4g then I reboot. Is there anyway to select lte only from any hidden menus or an app or something?

on other phones, the following menu lets you pick what you want your data to be: *#*#4636#*#*, then pick lte/gsm auto from there.

I tried but it doesn't have the option to change the network mode. I actually just edited my build.prop to enable network mode under settings and it worked!!! I finally got lte by choosing lte/wcdma option. When all the options appeared my lte appeared to be shut off .So all I had to do was turn it back on. Huge thanks to MrDSL for the help.
After changing my network mode to lte wcdma my phone kept saying roaming notification off at the top of the status bar and all I could use was data ( lte at least) and wouldn't make calls and the network mode menu actually disappeared. So after putting in a at&t sim card and rebooting my phone about 20 times the network mode menu popped back up and allowed me to change my preference to gsm/wcdma/lte and luckly its working perfect now.

Nope. They'll let you lock out LTE, but the mode options are as follows:
GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto
GSM/WCDMA Auto (no LTE)
WCDMA Only (No GSM or LTE)
GSM Only (No WCDMA or LTE)
I was happy to find this much, I came from AT&T, which doesn't let you do any of this. Given T-Mobile's incomplete LTE deployment, I can understand not putting in an LTE Only option, they're not going to be fully deployed until mid 2015.
Maybe once they're more deployed they'll add an LTE Only option.
LTE only would give you data only. You need hspa for voice. Until voice over LTE is regular, you won't see this option
Data is all I need. Was just curious. Maybe once CM hits the G3. Thanks for all the feedback.
Hi
Open the dialer and inter this numbers:
3845#*851#
Then choose:
LTE-Only > modem setting > RAT Selection > LTE Only
if u having other models like D855 - D856 - D858 or any LG device running android lollipop u can use this method
3845#*Your model#

@al5zMri thanks a lot man!!! This works on d855 i have unlimited LTE data plan but... only LTE -_- so it was incredibly annoying to constantly check connection mode while downloading. Now i wont waste money anymore!!!
Hi. It worked well on my G3-855, to force LTE only. But once the phone is forced to LTE only , now how to go back to the menu to cancel the "LTE only" if I need to registrer on an GSM or a 3G network ? Now once it's on "LTE only" which works fine for LTE, I can't enter anymore the hidden menu, the phone dosen't "dial" any number as it can't find a network to dial on. LTE is considered as a not dialing mode - it's data only. Thanks.

Hey. I just got a Puerto Rican version of LG G3 and I do not have LTE option in mobile network settings. Workaround is to go to service menu and select GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto there and then it works on LTE just fine. Any way to get it into the mobile network menu
Thanx!!
PS: using on Telus in Canada
Noone knows I guess.......

I made a guide in the general section on how to enable LTE, check it out here, and see if it works for you.
Hi everyone and thanks in advance for your time.
I have an unlocked Korean Optimus G Pro from the Olleh company. I switched providers to AT&T but it seems that the phone doesn't has access to the Data network provided. I have great phone signal but no Data network (No 4G LTE, 3G, Edge. Nothing at all). Everytime I turn on my data I get the message "Connection unavailable. Configure Mobile Network or Wi-Fi settings to download data."
I understand that AT&T is GSM. But this phone so far is only working with WCDMA only. I've tried switching it to GSM or any ways to make data network available with AT&T but so far it is not working. I checked the WCDMA Service settings but no luck.
Can anyone help me with this? Thanks! :good:

i live in pakistan , i set the apn for my network but still cant get a 3g, H, H+ on my phone . Lg g pro F240L. Any suggestion?
Hello,
I have an open-line Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-M919v) and the problem is that I can't use the LTE feature of this device even though there is a sticker of LTE on the phone. The network mode option doesn't show LTE option as it only says WCDMA/GSM, WCDMA Only and GSM Only. I also tried to change the settings in *#2263# but selecting LTE changes the Signal bars to " Ø " I upgraded from Kitkat (4.4.2) to Lollipop(OTA) and still the LTE option on Network mode is missing.
I am using an LTE sim and also am very sure that I am in an LTE spot. The phone was from Canada but I don't know which network specifically it was subscribed to as it was only given to me.
Hoping to fix this problem as soon as possible, Thank you.
You should ask here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-tmobile
But probably there isn't anything you can do. You phone doesn't really support LTE. It support some bands, but your provider is probably using a different band for LTE. So your phone will never get LTE with that provider.
Choose "automatic" after dialing *#2263*
Worked for me.
Sent from M919V Galaxy S4 via XDA Premium HD app.
I had a vzw s4 and was able to get lte in a hybrid att area. I had to use lte specific locked band in the options and would change to gsm or automatic when i left the hybrid area to be able to place calls etc. In the hybrid area everything worked fine.
