I have a Korean e975 that is supposed to be able to operate its LTE at 2600. I am currently with FIDO (Canada) and have the correct LTE APN (and LTE sim) and I know that FIDO operates its LTE service at 2100 and 2600. I can currently only get 3G and H but no 4G speeds. I have asked FIDO to reset my account but it did not solve the problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
Are you sure it's e975 and not f180(k,l,s)??

If it has got the extandable antenna on the side (meant to receive tv brodcasts in Korea) it is the Korean version, no matter what is written in the smartphone infos. And since it is a korean version is able to operate only with 850mhz(f180l) , 1800Mhz(f180k) LTE. For the korean version there are no 2600 mhz Lte capabilities,sorry
Only E971, E976 and E977 have 2600mhz.
Ok....thanks for the info....bummer!
Is the extendable antenna useful for anything in canada? Thanks
Where are you going to plug in an extendable antenna?
I just bought a Optimus G E975 that operates with only 3G(HSDPA): 900, 2100 MHz frequencies. I'm currently on the Telstra network that only provides 850, 2100MHz frequencies for 3G. The 2100MHz is available in locations where there is high volumes of usage (city for example) but I'm never in these locations when using my phone so it's resorting to 2G connectivity.
Is there anything I can do to make the E975 compatible? or is it the case of the antenna design and therefore I'll have to change phones?
Note: I didn't know at the time of purchase but Australia has a LG Optimus G E975k designed (850MHZ, 2100 MHz for 3G) for the networks we have here.

After emailing the supplier about my issue, they suggested trying a new sim card. Could this be a real possibility?
Below is the message they sent after I informed them of the issue:
2G(GSM): 850,900,1800,1900,
3G(UMTS): N/A
3G(HSDPA): 900,2100, (not Next G
It should be related to the network APN settings. Also, it may due to your sim card problem, as this phone need to use new sim card.
Please contact your sim card service provider to change the new sim card, it is free of charge.
For the APN settings, you can go to settings, mobile network, ,then access point name (APN). Then you can click your service provider, then select APN. Then you can change the APN link according to your sevice provider official link
Thanks for your good communication
Please keep in touch, as i believe everything can be solved through communication

According to the official LG website and many others, the hardware only supports 900 MHz and 2100 MHz frequency on a 3G network. I wish what you were saying was true .
I tried flashing E975k firmware (i'm assuming it would install a e975k baseband modem) but I still couldn't connect to 3G. So it must be due to the antenna design.
I appreciate the response.
rogers(canada) also uses 850 mhz ...so maybe asking for an e971/973(forgot which one is bell,which one is rogers) modem??
are you suggesting to flash the e973 firmware since it has the 850MHz baseband modem? I've been flashing all e975 software.. havnt tried e973 yet
You will have 8 mpx camera instead of 13 mpx if you flash the e973 firmware but maybe you will solve your connectivity issues
I said modem only,not whole rom.

Is there a work around or something to get 3g on this phone? "Movistar Venezuela"

The phone won t stay connected on 3g. I start the data connection, 3g, but after a some time the connection stop all by itself with no posibility to turn on again. Only restarting will help, but ,again after a while same problem. The only pisibility to turn the connection on is only by restarting the phone. When i switch the 2g connection there s no problem.

Unfortunately not, you can try rooting and flashing a modem/baseband but i doubt it will change anything.

Hi,
If your set model is Lg optimus g pro E-988 then you need to root your set. Install hidden menu and from there you can select 1800MHz frequency for LTE to work. But only if your model is E-988. Other wise it will not work.
How to enable volte in lg g pro f240L....plz help me
