I guess we need to wait for an update to 3.2.2 to overclock?
No you can load a OC kernel on top. I am running Tachi.

It does not break 4G? I thought 3.2.2 is needed for the 4G radio to work correctly?
The kernel is separate from 3.2.2. Do NOT load the rooted 3.2.2 image that is stickied here. It breaks wifi at this time.

OK thanks. For anyone else, I did tachi without issue and can OC @ 1.5. I tested wifi and 4g and had no issue.
Moved to proper forum.
Just a quick update. I was on a trip with an area that had no 4G and turning off wireless did not result in an auto config of 3G until I did a reboot. This morning I am back in my town and turned off wireless and did not get 4G until I rebooted.
After I rebooted I could switch between wireless and 4G without issue. I tried it 5-6 times and was able to go back and forth between 4G and wireless.
Not sure why it did not work early this morning before a reboot.

Based on the fact that a couple others had issues with connectivity on the upgraded Xoom, I guess I will wait of use the Rogue OC kernel instead since that once says it is compatible with 3.2.2

I'm running stock Froyo (rooted) and used Wifi Tether 3.0 pre 12 through 14. I can successfully get my phone to tether internet to my Asus Transformer but I can't seem to get over 3G speeds.
Wifi Tether seems to crash when I have 4G enabled so I have to start it up with 4G turned off. After Wifi Tether is enabled an my transformer is connected, I can then start up 4G. However it doesn't seem to make a difference is speed.
I tested my phone's 4G with the speed test app and alone it hits about 9mb-10mb. Once tether is enabled I get 500kb-1.2mb.
Anyone else having this issue or have any suggestions?
Many Thanks
Unfortunately, my experience is the same. The 4G on tether gives 3G speeds
Wifi tether 3 pre 14. Did exactly what you said. Activated on 3g then once it was up and running I turn on 4g..

That was taken at the end of viewing a You Tube Video so it had already slowed down. I can have multiple devices (had 5 linked up to it at a coffee shop) without any lag what so ever. It was actually giving better performance than the coffee shop's Wifi. That's why everyone was trying to grab my signal. I had forgotten to set my Wifi Encryption. EDIT..the Wifi 3 pre 14 actually gives twice the 4g tethering speed than my buddy's Evo that's running the latest and greatest ROM they have. We constantly use mine instead of his...EDIT 2..I actually have perfect 4g service and pay for Hotspot and this is the first and only time I have considered stopping that service as the Wifi Tethers have always been **** compared to it but not anymore

I think I am on pre 12 and I get 4g speeds on tether, do you have a link to pre 14

Is this what you are looking for?
WiFi Tether for Root Users 3.0-pre14 *** EXPERIMENTAL ***
weird, I'm on pre 14 now and get garbage speeds. I'm going to look into a few customer roms to see if I can get bluetooth tether to work and I'll see if there's a speed increase there. I've never been able to get bluetooth tether to work on stock froyo, tried about 3 different programs.....

Thought I read somewhere that there was a "caution" with these newer builds...don't remember what it was. Is it true they also offer regular infrastructure mode? And does it have security/mac filtering?
Don't want to mess anything up with my market version. Had it hooked up to CM7 nook color (1200 MHZ ocerclock) w/ GPS tether on top...... sweet G Maps driving Nav!! Hard to miss a turn with the 7" gigantic GPS!

I haven't had a problem while running pre12 on Midnight 5.2. I normally see >3.5m on 4g service streaming from Netflix to my tablet.
So I flashed my phone with midNIGHT rom 5.3 and running Wifi Tether Pre 14 and now I'm getting between 2.2mb - 3.5mb down. Not exactly blazing fast but definately a far cry from my original 500kb lol. Still better than paying $30 for the actual tethering fee.

What are you using for speed tests? I've run speed tests with the Ookla/speedtest.net app, and gotten pitiful speeds, then fired up netflix and saw 4x the speed.

I have tested with Ookla and also CNET's speed test. The speed between the two are consistant as well as the download speeds that I see when downloading files.
Ever since I flashed the latest (un)official 4.0.4 deodexed/rooted leak along with the new radio I've been having a hard time keeping a data coverage. It keeps switching to 1x Edge coverage or losing signal period. Its particularly obvious in areas(like at work) where I usually have 4 bars of 3g. The only fix I've found is to switch to airplane mode and then back, or to reboot the phone. Is anyone else having problems like this with either the official OTA or the (un)official rooted leak?

Sprint issues maybe?

I had issues earlier when I first flashed the radio.
I tried doing a profile/prl reset/update and everything seems back to normal now.
I tried prl and profile and it worked for an hour or so... Its been like that since the day the rom was leaked. An hour ago I wiped my cache and dalvik cache and flashed the new air kernel and so far so good Maybe I just had something goofy in my cache? I'll check back tomorrow, maybe it was just operator error somewhere along the way
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
I had the exact same issues
What helped me? Fastboot flashing previous radio. I guess it's coverage in my area? But I took the leaked ROM plus radio and flashed all the img's through fastboot and after a day or so I would get stuck in 1x. Like you, I usually got 3G.
I'm on the previous radio now and the problem went away

On thursday and friday i had no data at my desk at work, today i'm fine. I didn't change anything, didn't even wipe cache. Pretty sure it's sprint.
Also, if I left my desk and walked two streets over, it worked great.
Before 4.0.4 I think there was a hack on stock GB roms that the phone wouldn't show when it entered 1x. It was pretty obvious with the slowdown, but the indicator never showed it. With 4.0.4 I believe that hack is now gone and it really does show 1x vs 3G in the situations it's happening in.
This is happening to me. I have tried all of the radios. My wife's evo 3d has full 3g right next to my phone.
I have full wiped reflashed and tried all the radios.
Nothing seems to work.

the HTC has a good radio
both my ns4g's
leave a lot to be desired
fwiw
Anybody get this fixed? I'm still in and out of 1x.

If you know your MSL, you might try dialing *#*#72786#*#* for a fresh activation. It's helped me in the past after flashing radios.
Tried everything. Finally took the phone to sprint. They said it there was a problem. Paid $35 for a replacement.

Basically I have tried stock reset using LG Flashing tool i have rooted and tried numerous roms, but the problem is i boot my phone it has 4gLTE full then 5 minutes in it switches to 3g network. I have called verizon and tried everything they told me. Also i have even tried and made sure it was on the correct network which is Global or CDMA/LTE
I wanted to know if any deveopler can help me here to figure out the issue with why its not staying connected to 4g?
One of two things. There is issues with the towers around u which would be a Verizon problem. Or its hardware related

its sounding like its hardware related before i upgraded to the LG g2 i had .. i even dialed *228 to locate towers my area is all red on 4glte and im right next to the tower
can someone please help me with this issue it is irritating me very much because i pay for 4glte not 3g ****
so no update on this no one having the same issues as me loosing 4glte and connecting to 3g
Have you tried a new SIM card? On some LTE devices dialing *228 can actually screw up the SIM data. You should try a new card.

Have you tried any of the different radios / modems? Might be worth a shot.

Just got my G2 a couple days ago and I can confirm that I am having the same issue. I haven't found any fixes yet. It does seem that as long as I am actively using the data network, I keep 4g. Once I quit using data or go to wi-fi though, I switch back to 3g after a short period. Quick toggle of airplane mode and almost instantly connects back to 4g again, with the same results of dropping shortly thereafter.
I'm in a spotty area, 4G sticks on one bar and rarely reverts to 3G. Signal loss very rarely. Always comes back auto. Faulty modem sw, SIM, hardware, or towers.
I called lg about the issue they say it was Verizon's fault and there radios .. So they sent me the international version works perfect now I would recommend anyone here to drop Verizon they are **** and highly overpriced
Updated my phone (VZW LG G2) to the latest software patch that went out recently (Dec 20/21?) and now my phone will default to 3G service more often than 4G LTE. My home gets very strong LTE service and I could speedtest up to 20mbps at times on it. After I updated, however, my phone will connect to 3G about 90% of the time. Rarely does it connect to LTE. This isn't just at my home, so I don't think it's a local tower issue as I've had the same problem in town as well.
Has anyone else encountered a problem with LTE connectivity after updating to VS98012B?
edit: If I switch on airplane mode and then turn it off, sometimes it will switch back to LTE.
Flashed modem only here, no problems.
If you are still on pure stock, call Verizon and let them address it for you.
I've been searching for this problem as well. My wife's HTC One is sitting beside my G2 Rick solid on LTE, and mine is stuck on 3g. This only seems to happen in the house, so maybe hers just gets a better signal than the G2. On the rare occasion I do get lte, my speed tests are always much slower than hers. I know it's not an lte problem because out in town with a stronger signal I can get about 40 Mb d/l

Yup, I have the same issue after upgrading to vs98012B. Mine is rooted by the way.

I'm not seeing this problem. In fact, it's the opposite for me. I'm rooted and didn't want to go through the hassle of losing my custom recovery, so I waited until a stock, rooted version of 12B released. I flashed it as well as the corresponding 12B modem zip. I live in a fringe LTE area and it was not uncommon for me to see 3G in my house. Since the upgrade I've only been seeing LTE. I'm very happy with this update.
I've noticed today seems like I'm stuck on 3g

I came from a gnexus and on that phone it use to be when on wifi at home it would turn off 3g/4g, with the G2 I notice 4G is always on?
I would prefer to turn off 4G at home since my 4G is not the best and probably using more battery? I know it not using 4G for data but why is the 4G still on when it using wifi?
Thanks
Just aesthetics. I modded mine to remove icons when on Wi-Fi connection. Mods are around forums. As far as I have seen, on the Verizon variant at least, there is no 3G only switch. :/. I've only seen it on international version.

Are you sure that 4G is on when on WiFi? Because if you go to System Status, it usually shows Mobile Network State as "disconnected" when on WiFi.
