[Q] remove Cell standby

On the Nook in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888216
user xboxexpert managed to unload the phone tools on the nook and stop the nook from searching for a cell network. Since a few of us are off contract, I'd love to be able to do the same on my Tab. So I tried the same, renaming the files. It didn't work. The Tab ended up in an infinite loop of trying to restart the phone when phone.apk no longer existed. I didn't dare try restarting after renaming it when it was all I could do to get the Tab stable again without infinite app crashes slowing it down.
I like to use a bluetooth keyboard at work and airplane mode disables bluetooth, so no deal there. So does anyone have an idea on how we can disable the wireless network without being in Airplane mode?

I have the same question.... I want to use my tab Wifi only... anyone find a solution?

You can switch WiFi ob when in airplane mode.
Regards,
Dave

is there a permanent solution for it?

You can go into Phone Info via *#*#4636#*#* (or create an Anycut shortcut to Phone Info, under Activites) and switch the radio off there at the bottom of the page.

And bluetooth?
I'm sorry, I don't mean to be mean, but you didn't even read the entire post.

I suppose if I really want to do this then I need to get the dialer working? It seems kind of roundabout, I'm trying to disable the mobile network and phone options, but in order to do that I need to make it more like a phone first? I say that because I tried Anycut and under Activities there was no "Phone Info" activity. Thanks for the thought Hairy.
This is on a stock rooted T-mobile Tab, that I'm not planning to flash just yet. Maybe when Cyanogen is in a later beta. I'm just not that deep into hacking my devices, and while I appreciate people that do I just have other priorities.

Must be a ROM issue as I'm on JM6 and the Phone Info option is there on Anycut. I went through this myself for the same reasons, so good luck
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App

i am also in perma-airplane at home and just having wifi or bluetooth enabled.
works perfectly

Rather presumptuous of you to assume that? You can use Bluetooth too (at least on the ROMs I've used)

Nexus 6p Radio band selection menu possibility

Hey guys I was wondering is it possible that we can make a piece of software that can give us the ability to select the radio band manually? Any thoughts or comments will be appreciated.

I believe there is a service menu, I'm currently looking for that myself. There is an app called lte discovery but that may only let you see which band your on.

thank you that does let you choose which preferred network to use, but I think op wants to set specific bands of the network. On my old s6 there was a code that let you set these to whatever you wished, but have tried it and doesn't work.

Not sure if this will help 100%, but I am sure i can't hurt.
Since you're rooted you can go ahead and install this by flashing the zip in recovery.
After you have booted back up, open the new incall modz control app.
Then hit the three lines on the top left to open the control menu options.
Scroll down and click the advanced hidden menu section.
This section opens up several hidden menus.
You can look through and see what may give you the options you're looking for.
I suggest using the "apn unlocking" to give you access to edit the apn setting.
You can also play around in the "phone testing menu" section and look within the field test secrion to force LTE.
I must say BE CAREFUL because you could change a setting that may require a restore/reinstall of your rom!.
I have played with a lot of settings and never done any real damage, seems like it would just close the app of the option wasn't compatible with my phone.
The hidden menus are also accessible via a dialer code (which varies per device variant and there are playstore apps as well, don't remembwr the names.
I only suggest the mod, because it is part of ny oZoP project and it will give you lots of customizations for the caller id, plus the advanced hidden menu that i beleive you could use. Like i said though, there are other options and the choice is yours.
Good luck

Well it looks like I don't need to answer the first question, but I will just mention for other users, the mod has been tested and confirmed working on every "stock" based rom without issue.
As far as the menu options not showing, it looks to me if the setup you are running has had the files needed for the options debloated or possibly that variant doesn't include them by default.
I have attatched a flashable zip of the files needed, but I DO RECOMMEND MAKING A FULL BACKUP just in case.
After you get your backup finished just flash the zip in recovery and proceed back to the app for the extra options.
Good luck again and let me know how that goes. Your feedback is valuable to me so I can ensure that everyone gets the same experiance as I intended

H870 in the USA

Hi xda community,
I brought my new LG G6 from abroad to the USA and my carrier is AT&T. However, don't get a LTE/4G connection, H only.
My older G4 gets 4G right away and the G6 covers all the G4 specs and AT&T actually offers the G6 as well. Any advice or is it just not possible?
Thanks
mjh

I actually found it myself :laugh:
APN settings and antenna settings are attached, just in case:

Would you be so kind as to post the details of your APN configuration. The 2 screenshots only included the APN names and the Mobile Network settings. I was able to get H working from another post on this forum, but still can't get 4G. TIA!

Internet issues after update to Pie

Hey, I've updated to Pie since 2 months and the data connection on the phone is horrible. Apps will randomly report no network or no connection. Is there a way I can reinstall the radio?
The phone is usable and everything else works but the bad data connection and it dropping out is really annoying.

I noticed a few settings were a little off such as IPV4/IPV6 being selected instead of just IPV4. I created a new apn with the correct settings from the article you linked. I will give it a few days and report back. Thank you for your help!:good:
