No LTE setting in network mode? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey my g3 doesnt have lte as a option in the preferred network mode setting. ( Settings>networks>tethering & networks>mobile networks>network mode). Mine only has 2 options GSM/WCDMA auto and WCDMA. I have seen alot of people have this problem because the phones are coming from asia or other parts of the world. How do i get it to have lte as an option in the settings?
Please help thanks

What variant you have?

Its the d855

It should have all 4 options because that is international version.
You can always flash latest stock firmware (V10N Kitkat, or V10A Lollipop). That should solve it.
Or some custom rom.

Change other country's firmware

Hello.
I've got G Pro E988 Thailand version. Thailand firmware of E988 can't support 4G LTE. I'm currently live in Russia and I need LTE. I read Spec of E988 and it can support LTE 1800 / 2600. So, can I flash other countries' firmware and can I get LTE 1800 / 2600? For example CIS firmware or Hong Kong firmware for E988. If I can flash, please give me some instructions for that. Do I need to root and install CWM or TWRP recovery to flash these firmwares? My current condition is stock Rom and unrooted. Thanks.

Thanks for your reply hyelton! I asked to the LG Technical Support Center from Thailand and they answer me like that "Spec G Pro E988 can support 4G 1800/2600 but Thailand doesn't have firmware for support this version". So, I asked. I saw Pure Stock Rooted and debloated ROM here. Can I flash that Rom on my E988 Thailand Version? If I can flash, I think it can cause baseband problem. How can I flash my correct baseband?

Changing to another region stock rom

Hi,
i do not know computers or mobile phones that well, recently i got my G3, its the korean version F400S.
i notice theres lots of bloatware , just wondering is it possible to flash to a different region stock rom like the D855 HongKong international version.
and yes i do have the 32gb version.
And if its possible, can i still get updates on the phone?
thank you
You cannot flash firmware for one model number with firmware for another model number. Any D855 software will not work on an F400 and vice versa.

I installed ROM VDT V6 on my F400K and now my software version has changed from F400K10g to F400L10g. I am afraid it might cause an issue later down the line esp in super user access. Any idea how to fix this?

not sure about D802 , probably not a gud idea ,
i have a sprint ls980 in india , im running 2faced rom and have rooted and unlocked it..
You'll brick your phone flashing firmware meant for another version of the phone. You can only use firmware specifically made for this device.

i want to know why the phone gets bricked when we flash some other version's firmware , is it some deep hidden hardware difference as gsmarena.com says specs are same only names are different (and possibly the firmware ).
is there a work around.
because in ideal case if hardware is same then software can be of any version.

"Specs" are the same but the actual settings/hardware used is different. VERY different. Everything is region specific and carrier specific. That is why.

Here you'll see clearer why they are so different.

so it means if we have the original kernal then other rom's can be flashed , in this case if LS980 have original kernal then D082 rom can be flashed .
Did you try it?

How to convert the SM-G920P to SM-920F

i have bought S6. Phon i bought was sm-g920p with sm-g920f rom(6.0.1). I upgraded my phone, It changed to sm-G920P usa version. My phone is now compromised. I tried lot of things. Is there any thing that can change to international device. My phone has 3g network only now.
That's because like mine, the s6 you bought is actually an S6 Sprint model (G920P) and not the international model(G920F). If i remember correctly the rom was modified with G920F baseband. I'm guessing your cell provider is using Band 3 LTE like mine. That's why u cant get LTE to work. This is link to that firmware. Its android version 6.0.1. But i cant remember if you need to flash by odin or twrp. You can check the zip after you've downloaded.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5K2bv3OWv4fbm8zWXVIWFpmRWs/view
My phone is now 7.0 Nougat
Is it ok to install this rom. btw is my device no longer compromised? i didmt root this phone, but samsung internet says your phone is rooted??
I have the very same device although I didn't nothing yet..
i found another website with a rom to convert to G920F. Tried on my phone. it was successful. now my G920P can get 4G band 3. If you are brave enough and know what you are doing, then you can try. But still, its marshmallow (6.0).
https://tricksdoctor.com/samsung-galaxy-s6-g920p-convert-g920f/
You sure you are getting lte with your G925P ? as I know the G925P doesn't have the hardware support to receive the band 3 (1800mhz)...it supports other lte bands like band 4,5,12 etc.
Changing G920P to G920F can fix Hotspot option to show on settings?
Plz help me i need this rom for g920p convert to g920f fix rom this rom UAE

I'm guessing that file is just a patch because it's 58mb?? Is it going to work on android 7?
you have a refurbished phone with g920p board and g920f baseband

Sorry. What you meaning use mini space rom?
just thought i should update everyone. i did a bit of digging. and guest what, i think the convert rom are all fake. Even the one i use is actually a modded g920P modem. the 4g signal is actually just a system ui mod. Just out of curiosity i contacted 1 of the converted rom seller out there in the internet. and he admit that its actually just a rom with modded system ui that will show h+ signal icon as 4g. it wont actually allow you to use band 3 lte.
