Think you have to be rooted. Install the app Advanced Signal Status and under "additional info", then "device info" you can choose for different options.

when I am using my galaxy note 3, I input *#2263# to go to a menu where I can force LTE/WCMA my device and mostly it connects to only LTE.
in the Galaxy tab S , the code works but the option for LTE only is missing. so now I continuously connect to a slow 3g network.. bummer...
*UPDATE:
apparently you have to deselect all GSM bands and just select all LTE and WCMA bands.. you wont be able to use GSM bands but your device will lock on to LTE connections if avaialbe, 3g will apply if LTE is unavailable. hope this helps

2G mode and 3G mode only

I've noticed in the menu options, there is an option to keep the phone in 2G mode only. On the other hand, is there any way to keep the phone in 3G / 3.5 / 4G mode? Any software that can do this?

The phone will only switch to 2G if faster speeds are not available. The 2G mode option allows you to prevent the phone from switching to faster (and more battery consuming) data connections....
From the dialer, you can type in *#*#4636#*#* to bring up some "secret" settings. From there you can configure your phone to only use 3G.

How about if I don't want 2G at all and want it to stay 3G only, even if there is no signal? I remember this option on the SGS 2..

You do what chrono just said and the hidden menu let's you force 3g only. *#*#4636#*#* on the dial pad.

Doesn't stick all the time for some reason. Same with atrix. And other phones.

Go into phone info. From there if you scroll down a bit you will see a text that says something like "GSM/CDMA auto". Press that and you should get a drop down menu. Change the setting to "CDMA only". That should work.

Not sure how that disables 2G (1xRTT). Unless I'm mistaken, both 1xRTT (2G) and EVDO (3G) run on top of CDMA.
Also, you can get to this from settings->wireless & networks->More...->Mobile Networks->Network Mode
There you can select LTE/CDMA or CDMA.
And it always sticks

[Q] How to Keep LTE and HSPA while Disabling 2G/Edge?

How to keep LTE and HSPA while disabling GSM/2G/Edge?
I keep randomly getting the "No Service" problem with Telus, and I'm assuming it's a very similar problem with the original S1.
I know you can set it to HSPA mode only, but I'm assuming this means no LTE.
I've gone to the phone codes > debug mode, but there's no option for LTE and HSPA... (not unexpected)

Settings>Wireless and Networks, Select "More...">MobileNetwork>NetworkMode>HSPA/LTE. This will ensure you connect to LTE while in LTE capable zones. You can also stay on only HSPA to save battery. Cheers.

Thanks, but that isn't an option.
There is no HSPA/LTE option, only GSM/HSPA/LTE (auto). I want to lock it out from ever getting to GSM (2G).
And no, I do not want to stay in HSPA mode, or I might as well have bought an international galaxy s3

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.

Do you have the secret dialer on this phone? Dial *#*#4636#*#* (*#*#INFO#*#*). Select "Phone settings" and scroll down to "Set preferred network type:" and make sure you've selected LTE/GSM/WCDMA/CDMA auto (PRL)".
I could not get that (*#*#4636#*#*) to do anything.

No 4G/LTE even after hiddenmenu sim unlock

Hi,
I can get edge 2G or 3G but not LTE/4G although I followed the hidden menu sim unlock tutorial and put the ModemProtocol, Network Mode to Automatic and RAT Selection, put GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto but it doesn't give me LTE.
I also tried enabling LTE from the ##3282# screen, but I still didn't get LTE.
Thanks for help.
Using LG G5 LS992ZVA.
In ##3282#
LTE
LTE roaming enable (on)
Need this to take 4g
