So I am having some wifi problems. Like most I have 5 or 6 wifis that I connect to on my phone. My issue is that I will need to use my data and my phone's wifi is stuck on trying to connect to a wifi network that is no longer available. I can't turn wifi off or anything. My only fix is to restart the phone. Any clues?

Yes. I believe I'm experiencing the same thing.
Here's my situation, I have the Rogers LGOG (Not rooted) and the reception @ work is extremely poor. So I turn on wifi to connect. I'm able to connect to my corporate wifi, but when I leave to go between floors and I'm out of my wifi range and return, I'm not able to connect. WI-FI is ON and it keeps searching for hotspots, but I'm not able to connect and the only way for it to work again is to reboot. Now, this does not happen consistently, but it has happened a few times to where I'm wondering is this a problem with the OS or is it the phone.
Any thoughts on this to point me to the right direction would be greatly appreciated. thank you.
Same problem with F180K, but there an OTA update arrived yesterday saying "Wifi bug fix".
Cant tell if they really fixed it, cause im waiting for my flight, so cant test it right now.

Hi All
My Korean F400K LG G3 has been working fine for months until recently when WiFi started playing up - wouldnt connect etc.
I have done a reflash to original factory (F400K10g) using LG Flash program and now wifi is greyed out and not selectable at all...
I have reflashed 3 times but still no wifi - any suggestions
Phone not so useful without WiFi connection
Thanks
Frosty
Anyone have any suggestions?
Or does this sound like a hardware problem?
Hello!
I have a big problem with my G4 (H815 version, Germany) beginning with the switch from CM13 to the (stock based) Genisys 3.2 ROM. I've tried to fix it for three days now but without success. It doesn't stick to LTE anymore like it should do and did before. After a reboot it does sometimes connect to LTE but after switching back from wifi or airplane mode it's showing the "no signal" icon. Then it takes some seconds until it reconnects to the mobile network but now just to 2G or 3G. From this point it's not willing to reconnect to LTE, even not through the manual RAT-selection. "Force LTE" using the hidden menu then results in no network connection. However, after restoring my EFS-partition-backup with TWRP (from a time when it was working perfectly) it's connecting to LTE directly after boot but only once and only until you toggle wifi or go offline - like described before. After the next reboot it will mostly connect to 3G and then maybe switch to LTE sometimes or not.
Of course I have checked, deleted and restored my APN multiple times, I have also recovered to a stock V20b and V10d .kdz using LG UP in refurbish mode. Unfortunately even on the fresh and untouched V10d install it shows the same strange behaviour. Restoring the CM13 backup (including EFS partition), which has worked perfectly before, shows the same network bug now.
My sim-card is still working perfectly in my other phones. It still connects and reconnects almost instantly to LTE in my old S4 in places where the G4 did the same but struggles now.
I have even tried the cdmatool which is used to unlock additional LTE bands. I didn't change anything but it does show all usual LTE-bands which are needed for my provider.
Does anyone have an idea what I could try next? I'm living in an area with much better LTE than 3G connection and paying for a quite expensive LTE contract so a working LTE is very important for me. If I don't get that to work again I would need to replace my just over one month old G4 :crying:
Many thanks in advance for your answers
f-rouz
Meanwhile I have also tried another simcard. Still no LTE
i have the exact same problem, well, almost. no unlocked bootloader, but when i first got the phone i root injected the system.img and flashed away, thought everything was fine. now it just doesn't reconnect to 4G. well, at home at least. on my S4 i get 4 out of 5 bars on 4G, with the G4 i get 2 or 3 bars out of 5 on 4G, so the signal isn't great but good enough. i live in hastings (a town) and went to brighton today (a city) where the signal is max 4G, and the device does pick it up. but as soon as i go through a 3G area to home, it doesn't reconnect. have tried flashing original system.img back, upgrading to MM 6.0 after factory reset (via LG bridge), then downgraded again to V10c via LGUP - factory reset before the downgrade, no joy, still the same.
when you say you have forced LTE in hidden menu, did you try this - enter 277634#*# in dialer and go to field test > modem settings > lte band selection and select the band for your operator, which can be found on 'wiki europe lte bands'. there were two bands for my provider (three UK) and band 3 was what i wanted. i can now switch to 4G but it's a pain having to this every time i come home ( i use my phone for home internet via tethering).
worst part is, having refrained from unlocking the bootloader to save the warranty, i phoned LG today to send it back as faulty and explained i could switch it to lte band 3 via the hidden menu and they told me my warranty was now invalid as had OPENED the hidden menu (they told me this after taking my imei). so if anyone reads this and phones LG for a repair, don't tell them you have accessed the hidden menu if you have done what i did.
think i'm just gonna sell the phone, make a palpable loss and buy another one, as i love the phone
Wow, I haven't thought that from LG. I feel like I've searched the whole internet already and nobody has a solution to this problem. I'm about to send my G4 back to Amazon (or sell it otherwise), hope the best and get myself a Oneplus Two because the G4 seems to be too *****y from the development standpoint. I've never had a situation like this with my previous Samsung phones since 2009. I will miss this camera though. And the NFC and the wireless and fast charging capability... the G4 is a nice phone nevertheless...
Edit: And yes, I have tried the "277634#*#" hidden menu, although it isn't accessible through this code on MM any more (you need a terminal command to start this).
Have you tried limiting it to 4G/2G in hidden menu? Mine also have a similar problem in Lollipop in that it is very aggressive in dropping to 3G. That worked for me. Phone doesn't drop to 2G much provided you have decent LTE coverage.
Now I'm on Marshmallow and not rooted, thus cannot do the same. Though it seems to be sticking to LTE a bit better than before.
I have tried that but it doesn't work. As I don't get any network connection wenn forcing LTE only, forcing LTE/2g results in 2g only.
My G4 still doesn't want to connect to LTE so I have ordered a S6 now... As I still have no idea what was causing this I just can't risk that happening again. It has been a short journey for my first LG and me and I really liked my G4 actually... Bye G4 community
you just needed to flash the stock modem, most likely
Unfortunately, it isn't that easy. That was of course the first thing I did (and not just one time)...
Hello everyone, I've been lurking here all weekend as I've been trying to stabalize this phone I bought off of Kijiji. Right off the bat, when I
installed the sim I forgot to turn off the phone . Haha, I was extremely tired & only when I removed the battery (of course) did I realize what
had happened. Ever since the sim has been in, the signal has been unstable every 5-10-15 to 30 minutes (this is without running POGO). By
unstable, I mean both data & most importantly calls. I won't be able to make or receive, when I place the call during these failures it will
say dialing, connecting... and just continue until "call ended". And when I"m called, outside of LTE just say we've forwarded your call to VM. On
LTE, it will say something along the lines of this customer isn't able to receive your call at the moment.
Troubleshooting Attempts:
- Tried SIM in a different phone & it worked perfectly
- Power Cycled Several times, Factory reset it 3 times
- Set up 2 APN's (sorry can't link yet, but google them if u like they're ez to find. LG G4 VM Canada APN's)
- ^ Tried both, both unstable, but PDA gives most stability
- I've registered to all available networks under GSM/HSPA/LTE all unstable
- Connected Automatically & Manually to GSM/HSPA/LTE together & separately. All unstable
- Phone is not in Air Plane mode

Now, I have just recently come across a very interesting development. Using the App Network Signal Refresh Lite,
In pokemon go I've been able to transition to a signal that will stay solid for up to 5 minutes, 3 on average. It will still
lose connection, but will usually reconnect in-app in moments. I do have to minimize it & do a refresh again in NSRL
every now and then but it's a big improvement. Before hand, when I would use go, the service (calls included) would
completely rip in seconds.
So... any ideas? I'll appreciate any & all help.
I've flashed every stock rom I can for the device too, but the signal continues to drop regardless of the OS. Some error messages I' ve gotten are emergency calls only, no service & service disabled but usually it just shows that its connected to virgin but I can't make or receive calls.
Other than the cellular service, everything else with the phone works perfectly. The wifi, the camera, the gps, etc it would be a shame to have to get rid of it but the essentials first. I have to be able to make calls.
Please, anyone, any ideas? Are there any apps I can install to fix the broadband or something.
It won't remain stable no matter what I do... and no one has any solutions
tips, thoughts or ideas? Really regretting this purchase now... It's been a
month and I still cannot get a stable connection. This is ridiculous.

You may want to check out this link (https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-h812-firmwares/) for an H81220X Bell/Virgin kdz (H81220x_00_1122.kdz) and use LGUP-NEW to install it. It might help but if not, you may be facing a hardware issue ...
Solved lg g4 losing signal
I bought my lg g4 K450 and within days l noticed my phone was losing signal constantly. By the grace of God l tried this and it worked.
Go to settings---Then to Network---To more---To Mobile networks----To network operators. Select search network. All available networks will be displayed after a thorough scan. Select your network provider with a WCDMA instead of GSM and it will register it. After it done registering, restart the phone. and u are good to go. It worked for me, if it works for u give glory to God.

I'm at my wit's end with this. I got this phone last year and it worked perfect until the stock Android 13 update. Then it wouldn't hold a signal to save its own life. I finally have wifi here so it's not as much of an issue, but when I leave my house I have to toggle airplane mode to get it to work again, or it's stuck on "emergency calling only" forever. I did recently put Lineage on it, thinking maybe that would help. The last couple updates it's a little better, it will sometimes get signal back on its own. However more often than not I have to toggle airplane mode or reboot to get service back. This happens all the time, a dozen or more times a day depending on how often I lose service. I did try to search the forums for an answer, but I kept getting errors back with the exception of one result with the same issue that said "tmobile only" under the fix.
I have:
Reset network settings
Reset APN
Manually selected a carrier and switched it back
Cleared cache through Android Settings
disabled/enabled mobile data
Toggled Mobile data always active
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Seriously considering going back to my LG G8 ThinQ and selling this thing, but I love the cameras on it. Side note: When I put the SIM in my old phone none of these problems exist.

Maybe contact Verizon support. They should be able to fix it or at least tell you what the problem is.

I tried that. I couldn't get anyone that was a technician on the phone and eventually after three days of not getting an answer they closed the ticket.

WOW, glad I am with TMO. Their support is the best I have ever worked with. To me they set the standard.
You said you reset the APN, but did you check to see if the APN is the same as on your other phone that doesn't have any issues with mobile service? Maybe check to see if they are the same, and if not put the APN in that works

That's a good idea, I'll do that tomorrow. Thaanks!
Assuming you're unlocked and rooted since running Lineage, so add this module in Magisk, and maybe also enable mobile data always active in developer settings for now as well.

Exact same issue, unlocked LE2125, TMobile simcard. Didn't have issue on custom ROM, but this is happening on OOS13. Tried everything NSA SA 5g dev settings nothing worked. Living with trying to remember to toggle airplane mode periodically.
