[Q] Minor tweaks for the E980H Panama ROM on AT&T E980 to make LTE stick on

Hello all,
I know this should be asked in the Development section, but I'm such a noob I can't post there yet lol. I have a quick question for those who flashed the Panama E980H ROM on the AT&T E980. (see this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2438088)
Well, first of all, I did it. It's the best ROM there is (in terms of fidelity to stock LG software without the carrier crap). Even the boot animation is pure LG.
Everything works perfectly, too. There's just one problem: I guess the E980H for Panama doesn't have LTE connectivity, because there is not an option to set the phone for LTE/WCDMA/GSM (Auto) like on the Telcel or AT&T Rom. Only WCDMA/GSM or GSM [Auto]. So, I did *#*#4636#*#* and set it to LTE/GSM/WCDMA, and badda bang I'm on T-Mobile's LTE. But that's a pain in the arse because it only lasts until you next start the phone (similar to enabling LTE on a Nexus 4 pre 4.2.2 firmware). And LTE is important to me.
So, my question is this: is there a permanent way to enable LTE on the E980H Panamanian firmware? I'm willing to put up with selecting LTE manually since the ROM is so sweet, but if there is a permanent solution to make that setting stick I would appreciate the insight. :laugh:
Thanks in advance! (If you're thinking of flashing this ROM, do it - totally stock LG, fast, smooth, beautiful. Without all the AT&T or Telcel garbage). As far as I can tell, it most closely resembles the Telcel ROM but, like I said, without all their crap. Stable and smooth. :good:

I am definitely going to flash it. My device (AT&T E980) is on Telcel right now and though the amount of bloatware is much less than AT&T, it's still quite a lot for my taste.
Thanks for providing the information.

Sadly I dont think there is a perminate soluction as they took it out of this rom.

Possible fix... experimentation stage...

Yes, sadly I believe you were right. My solution didn't work after all. I'm not surprised
You know what I tried now? I booted into safe mode, accessed Testing menu > set network type, rebooted, and so far it's sticking.
Let's hope this is the one...
Any ideas you might brainstorm in the meantime I welcome :laugh:

QuickRemote...
Hey, has anyone else noticed that the QuickRemote app on the Panamanian E980H is different from Telcel's E980H and AT&T's E980? Like, I've noticed it lacks support for Insignia/Dynex televisions, which the other ones most certainly had. I don't understand it.
Another minor quirk that matters a great deal to me, since I have a lot of Dynex and Insignia TVs around. Grr...
Could we port the other app? And, what's the differences between them anyway? If someone on AT&T or Telcel's ROM wouldn't mind looking and reporting, I have QuickRemote version 3.2.3 on the Panamanian E980H.
Thanks guys! Strange, strange...

Can someone upload the LGPhone_JB.apk and LGPhone_JB.odex along with LGSystemUI.apk and LGSystemUI.odex, im going to take a look and try something.

Could you explain what maybe we could help? What was you wanting to look at?

I was doing to check the Androidmanifest.xml to see if the option was still in there perhaps, if not i have another thought on the reason why. Also try to see if the option was still there on other stock roms if i use the Panama apks instead. Maybe it's vendor script that removes the LTE option since they don't support it but it should still embedded in the stock firmware.
I wanted to check the apks before installing the Panama rom first, don't have time to backup at moment but will try my luck after getting off my 2nd job if i can stay awake long enough lol.

Way to permanently enable lte!

VERY EXCITED!!!
To permanently enable LTE on the Panamanian ROM, do the following:
With the device on:
1.) Hold down the power key.
2.) Select and HOLD "Power off" until the device prompts you to restart in Safe Mode. Press OK to reboot into Safe Mode.
3.) Device will reboot. Upon startup, do the following:
4.) Go to Phone.
5.) Dial *#*#4636#*#*. Testing menu will open.
6.) Go to Phone information > Preferred network type > "LTE/GSM/WCDMA [Auto]"
7.) Select that one, or whatever you prefer.
8.) Press home key.
9.) Hold down the power key.
10.) Select "Power off." Phone will turn off.
Upon startup, the device will remember that preferred network mode. Mine has - it hasn't fallen off of LTE since. DO NOT reselect a different network type in Testing, or the settings for LTE will not be retained.
11.) Enjoy! Hope this helps. If you gave it a try or it helped you (worked for me! :laugh, please press "Thanks!" I need all the help I can get around here.

Since several of you are on the Panama ROM in this thread... would anyone be so kind as to share the bootanimation.zip?

That did not work for me. What are you calling the "Home Button"? The middle one with the LED? That brings up task manager, nothing else. Thanks.

Hmmmm not sure but when I got my Note i717 and flash a non US Rom and not got the LTE settings I modify the build.prop but right now not remember what I edited.

DOES NOT WORK!. DOES NOT WORK! I think the best solution would be to get the ROM: LG Optimus G PRO (Model: LG E981H). This have this option enabled 4G LTE in the same bands of AT & T, which are: Network: GSM850/900/1800/1900 + WCDMA 850/1900/2100 + LTE (B4, B17)

Very strange. Please follow the guide perfectly. Also realize that it wormed perfectly for me. And BTW I do not have AT&T.
Sometimes, my network indicator says "3G" when its really on "4G" (LTE) or "H+". Not sure why this is. Do not trust the indicator; always go to the Settings menu where it says "Network type: LTE" to see that it is connected. Third party apps like Ookla sometimes invalidate the icon and show you have LTE too.

It worked, and continues to work for me, to this day. Also, does the Argentina ROM have branding? Like a carrier logo on startup or a bunch of their bloatware?

First of all, thanks for the info about *#*#4636#*#* This made me flashing the PANAMA stock rom on my AT&T E980 very worthwhile.
As for the LTE tweak, I went in using the dial code for testing and tried a few things out. First I selected GSM/WCDMA/LTE (Auto), but it resets to GSM (Auto) upon restarting the phone. So I tried the method going Safe Mode and all, and still the same result. But then I tried LTE/WCDMA only, and it sticks!!! I didn't have to go to Safe Mode, and it doesn't revert back to anything when I restart.
BTW, I have a non rooted stock Panama rom. I'm very happy now.

langs
The panama E980 version still has 6 languages in it like the AT&T version has?

Sorry, I don't. I used hyelton's or the Stock page by minnaing in LGOG > Android Development links to find one. Can't seem to find it anymore. No issues here on Panamian ROM. All OK. Even unrooted!
Good luck.

[MOD] Unlock ls980 on any aosp based rom for NON US GSM carriers

Hi all. Just want to share what i did and finally made it to make any aosp rom i have tried so far to recognize my sim card with great signal and data (can't test 4G not supported by my carrier). The only aosp based roms that anyone with ls980 can have gsm unlock without doing anything at all are omni and all omni based like dirty unicorns. These need the JB baseband though (i had no sound and auto rotation with cloudyfa's kk baseband).
In the past days tried many aosp with no luck. I was going to phone information (*#*#4636#*#*) and changing from there the preferred network to gsm only/gsm auto prl etc and rebooting but after the reboot not asking for sim pin code and when going to phone info again it was like i changed nothing. What finally worked is from same settings set the preferred network type to GSM auto PRL and then pressing the 3 dots at the top right corner>select radio band and setting USA BAND. Then rebooted and finally sim recognized asking for my pin code and all working great with auto apn settings already there for my carrier. Hope i help anyone being in the same situation. Confirmed working with Alegen Rom-temasek's Build - V7 (my current choice), mahdi and vanir all with kk baseband of course. Sorry for my English.:good:

Tried this on crDroid Marshmallow on my LS980 and it worked perfectly with T-Mobile US. Thanks so much!

What are other omni based roms?

New to this website(not flashing), I just wanted to make sure I was on track, ive had this sprint g2 for a few days now and while trying to flash a couple of 4.4.4 roms I got stuck on boot screen as well as a bootloop but managed to always get it back. Recently, I flashed the Cloudy G3 2.0 rom and so far is the only one I got to load. Im fine with using stock android but my main concern is getting a service to work(have yet to get another sim so cant test right now, would rather KNOW it would work once I buy it). I see you recommend using Cloudy G3 and I wanted to know which version was best, right now I just have the 2.0 rom installed with no data with instead of saying Sprint it doesn't detect the sim and says roaming indicator off. I would like to just be able to use T-Mobile or straight talk for talk,txt, and web(not much web, Comcast business class wifi ). Am I at least half-way there b/c every post I read about unlocking is helpful and all but requires stock rom or flashing another and I just wanted to stick with cloudy and get it up and running, just didn't know if I was on the right track, any advice?

I have two questions:
1) It unlocks CDMA, GSM or both?
2) Does it work with carriers outside US?
Thanks in advance.

1) CloudyFa says its for GSM.
2) Yes, it does work very well with carriers outside US. Myself used it at various countries outside US.
Thanks.

I'm confused...... either this doesn't work or no one here on the Sprint variant cares to sim unlock their device, or is this a repost in which someone else posted how to unlock and I just must have missed it? I only ask because no comments, thank you's...which I understand that part since most people on xda are unfortunately ungrateful in terms of having enough respect to thank the individual who helped them, or took time out of their lives to make something and share it.... but no confirmations that it does indeed work..... guess I'll just have to go ahead and try it out then.

so does this work? i have a sprint g2 that i just got. I have to fix the busted screen then i want to unlock it for tmobile. thanks!

I'll let you know in about 15 mins. What your screen is cracked? I thought my phone was broken because the screen was all black and would not turn on and I read every thread and no one seemed to know how to fix. Only solution I found was to send it in. But then I just took phone apart and unplugged the battery a day boom it turned on

I did this a while back on my Sprint G2, it works on T-Mobile. I switched to T-Mobile on the 15th. Only GSM though, which is still 2x faster than Sprint's 3G at least for me.
So go ahead and enjoy!
This is a repost, there is already an unlock thread. Same info is on CloudyROM FAQ as well.

i called sprint and i got the msl code (unlock code) so i don't think i'll have to do this lol thanks though!

Sprint only unlocks for international not local. Mine was unlocked but still did not work so I used CloudyG3.

OK so I used this method to unlock the sprint LG g2 and while going into the dialer settings and changing the settings while I didn't use the settings that op suggested I switched to I believe gsm preferred and then went into the apn settings where the dev of Cloudy rom has edited in a bunch of different apns and t-mobile did work it just wasn't at speeds that we are used to this day and age in my opinion.. really not worth it to me. Tried using Verizon and while the apns popped up for it I couldn't seem to get it working. May just be the settings I was trying. But All In All The Method Does Work Just The Speed Is A factor

Yes, but I believe it actually requires more work, check out the unlock thread. It has a detailed explanation of how to do it. I prefer CloudyG3 as it does not have Sprint junk installed.

I found it earlier as well, thanks. I do not like bloatware either, but I need "stock stable" operations of my phone. I was planning to root it, so the thread gives me what I need. Not sure why it did not register for me before, too much info. I saved a link to it a week ago.
OM

Regarding the "stock stable" comment above: CloudyG3 on the G2 has been rock solid stable, and much smoother performance than the stock ROMs that I tested when I first got my G2 several days ago (ZVC was on it, it updated to ZVD, I never bothered with the ZVE update, but I did roll it back to ZV8 for some testing before I committed to installing CloudyG3).
The G3 UI is awesome, far better IMO than the G2 UI, and performance has been amazing. I installed the Dorimanx kernel and tweaked the Extreme_Battery profile a bit using STweaks and so far it's been nothing but pure awesome and I'm very happy with it.
Haven't had one issue since I did this about 3 days ago, and in fact the battery life has been steadily improving as the ROM "settles in" which is expected in some situations when that's done. I had over 7.5 hours of screen-on time yesterday and that was with only 88% on the battery when I unplugged it. I looped "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" 3x in a row with screen on the whole time (obviously) and sound muted; that movie is 2 hours and 15 mins long start to finish (including the credits because it has not one, not two, but THREE scenes during the credits).
I'm VERY happy with this CloudyG3 ROM on this G2 of mine, and as noted above and in many other posts, if you install CloudyG3 2.0 on the Sprint G2 the only thing you'll have to do afterward is put in a GSM SIM card and that's about it for it to work. All the "unlocking" stuff has been done with this ROM ahead of time - it's possible to stay pure absolute Sprint stock on this but getting that SIM unlock functional can be quite problematic, the instructions are "simple" but they still don't always work out. I made several attempts to do it with my Sprint G2 when I got it and finally gave up after reading all the positive reviews of CloudyG3.
If you want pure stock Sprint ROM action, you're going to have to work to get that SIM unlocked and it's not going to be easy - there's no "click this, click that, you're done" type solution, unfortunately.
Unless of course you take the "click this, click that, you just installed CloudyG3 on your G2, you're done..." route.

Which ROMS/Modems unlock the GSM Capability with mobile data?

Hello,
I'm looking to buy this phone been reading around
So far I can see that with Carrier+APN tweaks in root explorer stock ROM can be SIM unlocked + data
Cloudy ROMs come natively GSM unlocked but data might need tweaking of APN.
There's a T-Mobile to Sprint convert ROM which works out of the box with Data+Network
I'm only interested in the official CyanogenMod nightlies.
I'll be using this phone in India. UMTS band 2100.
If I flash CyanogenMod 11 latest nightly + ZV8 radio do I get a GSM unlocked phone + mobile data readily?
Do I need to enter this code *#*#4636*#*# in dial pad & select GSM only for GSM & manually add my mobile operator APN for GSM+Data to work?
Or I need to tweak something in root explorer again like you do for the stock ROM?
Please share some information I'm only interested in using CyanogenMod.

Network Band GSM

please anyone help . while roaming through network settings(*#*#4636#*#*) mistakenly changed network band to band 40. now the problem is only Jiov4g is working no other GSM sim is not working
