hello, had my Sprint LG G2 with 4.2.2 unlocked and using it in Venezuela (I live in Venezuela) but when I upgraded to 4.4.2, I released him again and just grab GSM with a strange icon. Before I went out of the H or E mobile data.

Actually 4.2.2 zva had this as well. There is no way to change it, and it doesn't hurt anything.

This means that everyone will get this icon? is permanent or it will return to be UMTS?
is very slow, I prefer 3G.
it's just an icon, it doesn't mean you're not on 3g
Yes it does mean you're not on 3G... GSM = G = NOT 3G... Compraste el teléfono desbloqueado? 2das manos? Lo desbloqueó en que te lo vendió??? No se, pueden ser un par de cosas relacionadas... Sigue buscando o llama a LG... Quizá hay una avería en tu área y no hay servicio de data móvil... No se ni que decirte hermano...

unlock it myself and it worked fine, 3G, UMTS and EDGE.
but one day I went back to the sprint stock rom (4.2.2) and the release that icon appeared again. Then upgraded to KitKat Sprint LG flash tool, and I thought it would disappear, but no.
now only GSM.
Yea, pretty irritating to be honest. I would love if someone can provide a way to change the icon from GSM to E / H+. I have tried Xposed module Ex-themer and changed signal icons, but it does not make any difference. It has to be somewhere in the framework-res, isn't it?
Alright, I am doing some research on this.
I found someone was able to fix this on Sprint HTC One. I can't find the relevant G2 file on my phone yet (but I havent looked hard).
Here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2496572
We need to find a way to do the same on our phone. Any pointers?

no, it's just an icon, the wrong one maybe but it's using 3g anyway. I speed tested mine at 10 mbit multiples times........

I can assure that it is not just an icon. It has a purpose at the time it is display. Maybe you're blessed with a fast gsm coverage. The LTE icon means something, the 3g icon means something, the H icon means something. It is not just an icon. If it is not meant to let you know about some specific task then why bother put it there to be display? Just asking!

It is very rare. With the stock rom was perfect, after a while, quice go back to stock rom, downloaded here in XDA with flashtool and this icon appears. I did the same steps to unlock the first time.
GSM sometimes appears without the circle around, with big letters
I've got this icon, but in network I'm on "UMTS" so it's fine.
Would love to have the proper icon though

Go to your about phone section and click on status. In there you will see what type of mobile coverage you are really running. The GSM icon is there to tell you you are no longer using CDMA because on certain Sprint plans you can roam on GSM but it costs more to do so.

ok, I have this GSM icon. to make it change you need to change the build. prop line that carrier name=SPR to say TMO or simply delete SPR. and magically you'll have 4G icon. also you will have two sliders in the status pull down menu. check it out le me know. side effects the ui. apk occasionally crashes ..
which is the path to that folder?

Ok, I tried this. Doesn't help to be honest. It now gives a static 4G icon, even though I am on 3G. It does not change between E / 3G / H+, it just stays static on 4G. Also, the signal bar is stuck on 1 bar and does not change depending on the signal strength.

well, mine did change signals although yes showed lower bars. I forgot the other line on build. prop that I changed and showed me more bars. mine was always connected to hspa+ so 4G was appropriate. sorry it didn't help you as much. my feeling its the build. prop has the secret to it. I noticed when you mess with this device it gives you different results. Sprint has tricks under their sleeve.
I went to the build prop line "ro.build.target_operator" (or something) and deleted the value, and rebooted the phone. It now shows an "H" icon with traffic arrows (which disappear when the wifi connects), and correctly displays my signal. Behaves as if I had set the value to "spr" (sometimes com.android.phone crashes when dialing a number with an area code but whatever). No more stupid GSM icon!

Hello, today I bring you a video/screenrecording (in Spanish) about how to enable the option to use Android Stock data usage.

On the German devices, this Option is disabled/not supported. On the Chinese CAZC01B153 thats now on my CAN-L11 its available and works.
I thinks that get activated in one of the next Updates for the German devices.

Hello all !
My 10+ N975F/DS is connected on a 4G frequency (BAnd 20 - 800 mhz) that is not broadcast on the antenna closest to home but has several km. So I do not receive almost any 4G signal... The nearest antenna diffuse band 3 ( 1800 mhz). I tested with the pocofone of my girlfriend who uses this band 3 (with same operator) and it receives 4 bars in the same place.
I understand that the "service mode" menu on samsung allows to set a precise frequency in 4G.
Problem: I tested with the existing tutorial on google and the 10+ note is not compatible with the commands found.
Someone would know how to modify the frequency by this menu, or would have a trick to do it in another way? I just want to change the default band and tell him to connect to band 3 instead of 20.
An idea ?
Type *#2263# in the dialer and uncheck the band 20 from the menu and it should connect to the next best signal.

Hello. I also have a problem like yours and want to activate more frequency bands so I can get 4G+ internet and better antenna coverage. But unfortunately I didn't find a good guide on how to do this on Exynos processors. Somebody help...

Thanks, it worked for me. I installed activity manager, then searched for "com.samsung.android.app.telephonyui" and select it. After selecting this option, a white screen will appear and after selecting the magnifying glass at the top of the screen, a series of entries will be displayed. Then, I chose "Call settings .hiddennetworksetting.MainActivity", from the sandwich menu I chose "Band Selection" and after selecting the frequency bands I chose the tick which was successfully activated. Hope it works for the other exynos models. Mine is N975F "middle east".

Because this line don't work in the note 10 an 10+
To access in the frequency menu, you can use "Activity Launcher" application (in play store) then search 'hid" to have the right line. (hid, for "hidden")
After that, click in up left (three dots) and choose "band selection"
beware, this software changes things in the smartphone. For me, he changed the line of the sim in "global frequency" to be able to choose the bands I wanted. But then, to go back to the old version, I had to reflash the entire rom (but I'm probably not a reference)

according to this post I found out that the Pixel 2 XL doesn't support LTE Carrier Aggregation Combo Band 3+20.
This Combo is used by the German Provider "O2" in many areas.
Is there a way to activate this combo?
My Pixel 2 XL has Android 10 with root.
Thanks in advance
US-version of Pixel 2 XL doesn't support but if you have EU/Global-version that should support.
Because you have rooted there is way to verify Carrier Aggregation support from UE Capability. I have instruction here: https://mt-tech.fi/en/how-to-get-4g-supported-ca-combinations-from-your-android-phone/ .

You can lock network band in free version itself.
Just download Network Signal Guru app and open options. You can see lock band option. Select the band required and it will lock.

No, it will not (unfortunately).
And the bad part, it will not work (good-lock launcher) after a few days (reporting not allowed), something we can easily fix by ejecting sim tray and vpn again to an approved country. But it's annoying, so we keep nicelock for simplicity (as a good-lock launcher).
The same goes for updates, they will not show on Samsung store unless on a valid country (vpn needed).

No, it will not (unfortunately).
And the bad part, it will not work (good-lock launcher) after a few days (reporting not allowed), something we can easily fix by ejecting sim tray and vpn again to an approved country. But it's annoying, so we keep nicelock for simplicity (as a good-lock launcher).
The same goes for updates, they will not show on Samsung store unless on a valid country (vpn needed).

Thanks so much for your explanation, pal.
I did the vpn trick 2 days ago and it worked fine.
First I uninstalled the Nice Lock and went for the Good Lock,
but the coolest thing was that all my settings from Nice Lock remained

No worries, [emoji6]
But soon all of this will be unnecessary, Samsung is slowly lifting regional locks for the "really great“ set of customised apps named GoodLock.
Yes, true. Individual app settings are indeed kept because Nicelock is just a launcher for Samsung original apps (they are the same)...
