APN Settings

Can someone post the APN settings for the Vibrant please? For some reason reverting one of the lag fixes deleted my APN from my phone.
Thanks

Wifi calling taking 40% of power, as per power tutor

Ok guys,
Since the OTA my wifi calling feature is taking 40% of the power. The wifi which i use has a diiferent reading so can not be mixed up. Now wifi calling is clearly disabled and can not forcestop it.
Any suggestions or solutions and is any one else in the same boat.
Also is there another app that breaks down like power tutor does so i can cross check. Thanks

I disabled mine using Titanium Backup; it allows you to "freeze" applications. I have an awaiting question in the Q&A forum (where this thread should really be as well) asking about the battery usage and coding of the app.
I am not sure where that section is under G2, but if you can post the answer here when u get it. I will try Titanium back up, i have a temp root so hopefully it'll work. Thanks

Oh, my bad... really? *Checks G2* odd...
Ok i got the Titanium pro and froze the wifi calling but it still is running even though titanium says its frozen. The power tutor still says its consuming 33% and in systems ruuning apps u can still see it. Can you check if yours stoped for sure using titanium?

I haven't seen this problem. I've been using wifi calling all week while I've been out of the country and my phone has lasted all day. I'm probably only on the phone for somewhere between 60 and 90 minutes of the day, but I'm on the phone taking pictures, uploading them, texting, and just general G2 type stuff. I'm getting awesome battery life and haven't seen it go in the red once all week. I'm using JuiceDefender and that seems to be working great at managing the battery life.
Using JuicePlotter I can see that I took it off the charger at 6:00 am the other day when I left the office, and at 4:30 PM my battery was only at 23% when I put it on the charger in my hotel. I walked around town doing some shopping instead of going to bed (big mistake). I'm just not seeing WiFi calling being much of a battery drain. In fact, according to this graph, my battery went down quicker when it wasn't connected to wifi than when it was. Probably because the phone was searching for a signal and not getting one out here in Manila at all.
I took it off the charger last night at 8:00 pm and as of 4:10 am I am at 66% of my battery left. I've spent 2 hours on wifi calling and was looking for a couple apps in the market for probably half an hour or so as well as a half hour of Angry Birds play in the car on the way to the office.

Figured it out last night. I favorited the G2 section before the Q&A form was added. Had to remove and refavorite.

I will try juice defender, i think the problem might be in power tutor as well as when i uncheck the lcd part of the total, wifi calling seem to drop of the list which should not be as wifi calling can not be using lcd time, so i will try and reconfirm using a different app. But in power tutor it clearly logs as using 40% some time more of the total power. But thanks for that info.

I used the method detailed here to permanently disable many of the apps that came with my G2.
This method is a bit in depth and requires either an ADB connection or the terminal emulator app, but it works well.
Good luck, I hope this helped.

Ah that's right, I forgot about that; especially odd because I had done that myself before the perma-root. Yeah, OP, follow those instructions and you should be able to actually disable the Wifi Calling app.

Nexus 4 connection

Hey guys, I was just wondering if someone could help me. I've got my Nexus 4 on EE UK. My signal bars stay blue for about an hour or so meaning that its connected to the Google servers. But then they go grey and all my Facebook notifications, gmail and talk don't come through. Here's the odd part.....if I put the handset in air plane mode and turn it back on it reconnects! Anybody got any ideas????

I have the same problem, with wi-fi or mobile connection. Can't seem to find a solution. However, sometimes it just magically activates itself again and I get a load of missed messages/e-mail etc.

Yup, exactly the same. Not so much with WiFi tho. I did read that if you didn't sign in with your gmail account on first boot then u need to reset your entire handset and sign in again from the very start using the gmail account. Some say it works others say it doesn't.

I had the same problem what worked for me was remaking the APN. I was using the default APN and it was giving me problems but after making my own with the same stuff it fixed it.

Well, it's also related to wifi, so I don't know it that'll fix it. But I added my APN myself, just to make sure. Thanks.

Still the same. Loses connections in deep sleep & I get grey bars that switch to blue when I activate the device.
Surely there's a fix for it. Must b. Wonder if manual APN settings would fix it.

Similar problem here - Am on T-mobile UK but the carrier hasn't changed to EE like it had on my previous phone (anybody else like this?)
But yeah, have no issues over wifi but occasionally mobile data stops working and the bars go grey; when activating data connection it sometimes takes quite a while for them to turn blue.
Anybody managed to rectify the issue with APN settings?

Anyone ever figure this out? Switching to airplane mode helps me but this sucks.

Using Verizon LG g2 on T-Mobile

I'm currently using a Verizon LG g2 on T-Mobile. Is there anyway to remove the SIM with a Question mark icon and the roaming indicator?

do you honestly need a second post for the same issue you posted two threads up? Go answer my question on the original one you posted and maybe I can try to help.
I think it was possible at all, since two carriers are using different technology and bands....
For whatever reason capcha does not work for all for me on this site...
Have you tried swapping in and out of airplane mode to get rid of roaming? ive read a few places that fixes issues on custom roms
For the sd issue i have no idea, because i dont have it. Maybe it is because you are using a vs device on tmobile? try looking at xposed modules, they let you hide/remove practically anything

T-Mobile APN?

I just got this thing and it's an amazing phone. I absolutely love it. But for the first time after having it for a few days, I decided to go on a lengthy drive only to realize that MY PHONE DOESN'T GET DATA!!!! I messed with the APN settings once I got back and got it to work with 3G, but I had no luck getting 4G LTE. I can get 4G LTE on my other phones, but was wondering if others have experience similar issues, and what have you guys done to resolve them.
Thanks
nope....no issue where i live.....

Yeah, it's just my area. I used the APN that I was using on my nexus 5 and am now getting data. It appears to be pretty similar to the stock one, so I'm confused as to why that one wasn't working for me.
