[Q] support, GSM strange icon - Sprint LG G2

hello, had my Sprint LG G2 with 4.2.2 unlocked and using it in Venezuela (I live in Venezuela) but when I upgraded to 4.4.2, I released him again and just grab GSM with a strange icon. Before I went out of the H or E mobile data.

as solved? SIM to unlock files in 4.2.2 to 4.4.2 are used?

Actually 4.2.2 zva had this as well. There is no way to change it, and it doesn't hurt anything.

This means that everyone will get this icon? is permanent or it will return to be UMTS?
is very slow, I prefer 3G.

it's just an icon, it doesn't mean you're not on 3g

Yes it does mean you're not on 3G... GSM = G = NOT 3G... Compraste el teléfono desbloqueado? 2das manos? Lo desbloqueó en que te lo vendió??? No se, pueden ser un par de cosas relacionadas... Sigue buscando o llama a LG... Quizá hay una avería en tu área y no hay servicio de data móvil... No se ni que decirte hermano...

unlock it myself and it worked fine, 3G, UMTS and EDGE.
but one day I went back to the sprint stock rom (4.2.2) and the release that icon appeared again. Then upgraded to KitKat Sprint LG flash tool, and I thought it would disappear, but no.
now only GSM.

Yea, pretty irritating to be honest. I would love if someone can provide a way to change the icon from GSM to E / H+. I have tried Xposed module Ex-themer and changed signal icons, but it does not make any difference. It has to be somewhere in the framework-res, isn't it?

Alright, I am doing some research on this.
I found someone was able to fix this on Sprint HTC One. I can't find the relevant G2 file on my phone yet (but I havent looked hard).
Here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2496572
We need to find a way to do the same on our phone. Any pointers?

no, it's just an icon, the wrong one maybe but it's using 3g anyway. I speed tested mine at 10 mbit multiples times........

I can assure that it is not just an icon. It has a purpose at the time it is display. Maybe you're blessed with a fast gsm coverage. The LTE icon means something, the 3g icon means something, the H icon means something. It is not just an icon. If it is not meant to let you know about some specific task then why bother put it there to be display? Just asking!

It is very rare. With the stock rom was perfect, after a while, quice go back to stock rom, downloaded here in XDA with flashtool and this icon appears. I did the same steps to unlock the first time.
GSM sometimes appears without the circle around, with big letters

I've got this icon, but in network I'm on "UMTS" so it's fine.
Would love to have the proper icon though

Go to your about phone section and click on status. In there you will see what type of mobile coverage you are really running. The GSM icon is there to tell you you are no longer using CDMA because on certain Sprint plans you can roam on GSM but it costs more to do so.

ok, I have this GSM icon. to make it change you need to change the build. prop line that carrier name=SPR to say TMO or simply delete SPR. and magically you'll have 4G icon. also you will have two sliders in the status pull down menu. check it out le me know. side effects the ui. apk occasionally crashes ..

which is the path to that folder?

Ok, I tried this. Doesn't help to be honest. It now gives a static 4G icon, even though I am on 3G. It does not change between E / 3G / H+, it just stays static on 4G. Also, the signal bar is stuck on 1 bar and does not change depending on the signal strength.

well, mine did change signals although yes showed lower bars. I forgot the other line on build. prop that I changed and showed me more bars. mine was always connected to hspa+ so 4G was appropriate. sorry it didn't help you as much. my feeling its the build. prop has the secret to it. I noticed when you mess with this device it gives you different results. Sprint has tricks under their sleeve.

I went to the build prop line "ro.build.target_operator" (or something) and deleted the value, and rebooted the phone. It now shows an "H" icon with traffic arrows (which disappear when the wifi connects), and correctly displays my signal. Behaves as if I had set the value to "spr" (sometimes com.android.phone crashes when dialing a number with an area code but whatever). No more stupid GSM icon!

Change the H to 4G

So I have a Galaxy Nexus bought from Google Play and I absolutly love it. I'm using it on Tmobile and it displays an H icon for HSPA+
I know that I can easily root it and install a rom, but I perfer not to. I simply just want to change the H icon to 4G WITHOUT rooting.
Is there any way to do this?
without root, no you cant.
Get a post it note and write 4g in the corner where the glue is and then cut it out and sick it over the H.
Otherwise root.
No you need root. And if you did root and you did change it, it'd affect your future OTAs

No. All you have to do is open up SystemUI.APK and go into drawable-xhdpi and replace two images of "3G"
Can I change "E" to "LTE" and get faster speed?
Otherwise, what's the point?
OK let's say I did root, can I just use the existing 4G icon that's built in and simply designate it to show up for T-Mobile?

Yes you can just rename the icons and they'll show up. There's plenty of flashable zips to do this too. You're not the first one to want this.
But once you start editing things you won't get OTAs to install properly anymore... editing things that aren't meant to be edited messes with that stuff.
Why not just leave it as "H"? You know what it is. Just leave it.

Show HSPA+ as 4G

Hello
How can I make my Note II to show on the signal indicator "4G" instead of "H+" (when I'm on HSPA+ of course).
I thought replacing the images, but I couldn't find them. Also, I'm using Simplistic Framework so I guess there could be some problems with that.
Thanks!

IMO replacing the icon is the simpliest method.
It is located in SystemUI/res/drawable-xhdpi/stat_sys_data_connected_h_plus.png

Please keep discussion focused, on the topic described in the OP
Rules:
*Read before posting.
Know bugs and their fixes(if any)
I'll keep this post updated with "basic" known bugs. From basic I mean basic features of a smartphone like Calls, Audio etc.
Known Bugs in R3:
*Camera HDR mode doesn't seem to be working.
*Alarm with device powered off and charging is not working (it works if not charging).
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q) Where are Developer options and Performance settings?
A) Go to Settings > About phone, and press five times on Build number.
Q) How can I set 3G only network mode?
A) Open dialer, dial *#*#4636#*#* , open first option "Phone Information", there you can set your preferred network mode.
Q) Why is cpu min freq raising to 1190MHz?
A) It's "touch boost", cpu min freq increases when you touch the screen to give a better response. When you don't touch the screen for a couple of seconds, cpu min freq goes back to 300MHz.
Q) I don't have root permissions. Why?
A) You need to enable root access from Developers Option.
Could we have this thread also discuss common bugs that comes with stock or custom kernel?

That not really a solution. I lost the in-call audio for the first SIM right after I switched the 3G mode to the second one. And since that ROM doesn't support 3G for both SIMs at the same time, one of them will be always without that in-call audio. As I said in the original thread, that bug doesn't seems to be sim- or slot-specific.

I changed sim2 to 3G and run speed test (result attach)
I've read some people did manage to get 3G on sim2 with KK roms (PA/Mokee) by simply switching sim2 to 3G (and some disabled the sim1 first) and then reboot.
well I don't know for sure, but maybe it natively support by hardware.

Yes, it's possible. There are two settings that should be changed: the preferred network type for each sim (located at the Mobile Network settings) and the default card for data (located at the Mobile data settings). When the first has been changed, the same setting for the second sim card automatically is being changed as well.

I was under the impression that SIM1 can only access 3G and SIM2 only 2G. This is because when you open the back panel to insert sim, there are two slots which says SIM1 (WCDMA) and SIM2 (GSM)

You can try cpu temp in statusbar module.
I have a problem with gallery. It loads just some of the photo. The other photos are grey. I don't see a thumbnail. When I try to open them, Gallery force close occurs. My photo files aren't corrupted at all. I also face problems with MiKey, which is probably recognised as a microphone or headset. Everytime when I try to use VoiceSearch, it can't hear anything. MiKey v3 installed. We also can't manage CPU frequency or governors - but No-FrillsCPU works.

That's never been available on any of the ATT branded HTC devices I've owned. Just VVM and Messages have been integrated in the dialers. What devices did you have video call integrated in? I've had the One Mini, the M8 and M9 all ATT branded.

You're actually talking about VoLTE ir94 which is the video calling standard AT&T rolled out (next generation VoLTE, standard is ir92).
I've spent 4 days tearing down xmls and working hands on with AT&T techs.
AT&T advanced features like VoLTE and HDVoice or Video calling appear to be firmware dependant and not simply plug/play. AT&T branded devices uses AT&T firmware which enables these features.
Now, that being said the firmware could already support this on the HTC 10 Unlocked, it could be an IMEI filter. Currently there is not an answer except that these features do not work.
**If anyone claims to have AT&T HDVoice and VoLTE working on their stock HTC 10 please PM me and send me your build.prop and default.xml from system/customize/ACC/default.xml. I may also need other files, I'll let you know.

In order to validate this I need the following:
Verify you're on AT&T postpaid.
Screenshot of your data settings showing "Enhanced 4G" in Settings>Mobile Data> - should be here -
I need a copy of the following files:
Stock, unaltered build.prop
The entire system/customize/ folder or at least the full contents of: customize/ACC/, customize/CID/, customize/clientid, customize/MNS/, customize/MNSprop
Honestly I thought for sure I had it, even checked my mobile data settings and had the "Enhanced 4G" setting but now it's gone and I can't get it back.
I've managed to edit back in a few settings including "Search for AT&T MicroCell" but can't get the enhanced 4G and my sim verifies it's VoLTE provisioned in the handset (from testing mode).
You'll be helping a bunch of us out if you or anyone can get me unaltered stock files from a working ROM.
EDIT: I may have the solution to fix this already but the files are still appreciated. I'll be testing tonight and report back. For some reason I think some of us aren't getting the default.prop provisioning correctly and it's not enabling the proper RIL features.

Lol I'm aware of this, it should be and as I said i'd swear it was in mine. It was the first thing I verified when I stuck my new SIM in
After unlocking and reflashing back my stock system image I can't get my handset to provision correctly so I no longer have the feature.

In order to validate this I need the following:
Verify you're on AT&T postpaid.
Screenshot of your data settings showing "Enhanced 4G" in Settings>Mobile Data> - should be here -
I need a copy of the following files:
Stock, unaltered build.prop
The entire system/customize/ folder or at least the full contents of: customize/ACC/, customize/CID/, customize/clientid, customize/MNS/, customize/MNSprop
Honestly I thought for sure I had it, even checked my mobile data settings and had the "Enhanced 4G" setting but now it's gone and I can't get it back.
I've managed to edit back in a few settings including "Search for AT&T MicroCell" but can't get the enhanced 4G and my sim verifies it's VoLTE provisioned in the handset (from testing mode).
You'll be helping a bunch of us out if you or anyone can get me unaltered stock files from a working ROM.
EDIT: I may have the solution to fix this already but the files are still appreciated. I'll be testing tonight and report back. For some reason I think some of us aren't getting the default.prop provisioning correctly and it's not enabling the proper RIL features.

I have fought like hell to get Volte working on my M9 running mashmallow (even the stock dev edition) and could NEVER get it to work. Anyway...that said...you don't believe me??? files are attached.

Here are the files. I hope my "proof" was enough. lol.
Oh and I'm on a regular old monthly voice and data plan. Something like unlimited minutes and 15GB data/month.

Fantastic!
You know how it is, it's not that I needed proof per se, but that is not even where I was looking for the enhanced 4g toggle! (thank you!!)
For some reason my handset doesn't provision properly and it's bugged. You're helping myself and others a ton as we all know I won't be the only one with this issue.
Cheers!
EDIT: 1 other dumb*ss question: How did you trigger the screenshot on the 10?

The setting to enable volte toggle is in acc/default.xml. One of the last items under phone is volteEnableImsToggle. Needs to be set to true then reboot. See screen shot below when it's dry to false there is no option to toggle vote.

I owe you several.....
I've spent 2 days pouring over A9 and M9 XMLs, build.prop's looking for the issue.
I've been able to enable other features but not VoLTE. I've tried all various combinations:
<item type="string" name="volte_eab_operator_behavior">not_specified</item>
<item type="boolean" name="voLteEnableAutoDomain">false</item>
<item type="boolean" name="voLteEnabled">false</item>
<item type="boolean" name="voLteEnableImsToggle">true</item>
<item type="boolean" name="voLteEnableMultitasking">false</item>
<item type="boolean" name="voLteForbidSsDuringE911">true</item>
Do you happen to know which MNSprop file is the one for ATT? 31060 or 31180?

Yeah, it's cool. I know how it is. You've been working on it and banging your head against the wall and you're rightfully skeptical that we were talking about the same thing.
Screenshot is power+home button (fingerprint scanner).
Are you sure volte is a) enabled on your account and b) that you're in a volte calling area? If it's not enabled on the account, I'm not positive if the toggle will do anything to enable it. Also, to test, I always call my voicemail or some other AT&T number, like 411. If you're in a volte area those calls should ALWAYS go through volte. Also, to further test, go into phone information (*#*#4636#*#*) and set calls for LTE only (see screenshot in my first post). If the call can't go through volte it will just disconnect. That's how you can tell my call in the first message screenshot was volte (call duration would not have gotten to 0:06 - it would have disconnected at 0:00). Don't forget to change this setting back to GSM/WCDMA/LTE when you're done testing or everyone who calls you will get your voicemail if volte isn't working or is unavailable.
Another discovery...volte isn't working on Lee Droid at the moment. I think AT&T uses different telephony.apk than the WWE base uses. Also, I believe you need to be on the 617 (US Unlocked variant) firmware, but I have not tested with the 401 firmware yet (and I won't until there is a full RUU available).
Finally, can you see if call forwarding is working for you? Go into Settings>call>GSM call settings>Call Forwarding. Do numbers show up or do they all stay as disabled? I have found that call forwarding and volte kind of go hand in hand, although on my M9, I have been able to get call forwarding working when volte still would not.

I have no idea about this. A9 and M9 didn't have those files to my knowledge.
On a related note...It could be your sim. Honestly, I know that sounds like classic CSR bs, but it's true. Older sims do not support volte. I got my wife the A9 in november and used her sim from her iphone 5. volte and call forwarding would not work, but she didn't care about that stuff, so I never worried about it. For some reason a few weeks ago, I decided to try and get it working and went to the ATT store and got her a new sim and after one reboot, volte and call forwarding worked immediately.

How to force the frequency 4G on the note 10+ ?? (Force Band 3 instead of Band 20)

Hello all !
My 10+ N975F/DS is connected on a 4G frequency (BAnd 20 - 800 mhz) that is not broadcast on the antenna closest to home but has several km. So I do not receive almost any 4G signal... The nearest antenna diffuse band 3 ( 1800 mhz). I tested with the pocofone of my girlfriend who uses this band 3 (with same operator) and it receives 4 bars in the same place.
I understand that the "service mode" menu on samsung allows to set a precise frequency in 4G.
Problem: I tested with the existing tutorial on google and the 10+ note is not compatible with the commands found.
Someone would know how to modify the frequency by this menu, or would have a trick to do it in another way? I just want to change the default band and tell him to connect to band 3 instead of 20.
An idea ?
Type *#2263# in the dialer and uncheck the band 20 from the menu and it should connect to the next best signal.

Hello. I also have a problem like yours and want to activate more frequency bands so I can get 4G+ internet and better antenna coverage. But unfortunately I didn't find a good guide on how to do this on Exynos processors. Somebody help...
*#2263# is not working on Note 10+.

Thanks, it worked for me. I installed activity manager, then searched for "com.samsung.android.app.telephonyui" and select it. After selecting this option, a white screen will appear and after selecting the magnifying glass at the top of the screen, a series of entries will be displayed. Then, I chose "Call settings .hiddennetworksetting.MainActivity", from the sandwich menu I chose "Band Selection" and after selecting the frequency bands I chose the tick which was successfully activated. Hope it works for the other exynos models. Mine is N975F "middle east".

yes it's a good news I flashed my rom with a stock, and now the software works fine. I think it was just a bug of my rom

That's a little weird. I'm on the original ROM, locked bootloader, no root, completely stock. but when I dial *#2263#, it doesn't respond at all, nothing
I don't know why.

Because this line don't work in the note 10 an 10+
To access in the frequency menu, you can use "Activity Launcher" application (in play store) then search 'hid" to have the right line. (hid, for "hidden")
After that, click in up left (three dots) and choose "band selection"
beware, this software changes things in the smartphone. For me, he changed the line of the sim in "global frequency" to be able to choose the bands I wanted. But then, to go back to the old version, I had to reflash the entire rom (but I'm probably not a reference)

It didn't worked when you went back in the hidden activity, network mode, then automatic?
Also, I wonder why is there a 5G section.
Is it possible to add bands on the 975F? I need band 30!which is for ATT
