Hi there,
I am wondering if I can change the basebands/modem from my D801 T mobile G2 to work with the international D802 basebands since I am moving to germany. Can we just flash a new modem to get different LTE bands since it's a S800, as qualcomm said the first world LTE processor?
thanks a lot

Not that i'm aware of. Check the tmo bands and see if they are compatible with the common german carriers. Otherwise I would just sell your G2 on swappa and purchase another.
that is what i will end up doing if necessary, can someone confirm this is not possible at all? thanks!

It's not possible to change the bands a phone operates under. Here are the bands the different versions use (taken from Wikipedia) so you can check if the 801 will work with whichever carrier you're planing on going with.
AT&T - D800
GSM 850/900/1800/1900UMTS 850/1900/2100LTE 1900(2)/1700(4)/850(5)/700(17)
Sprint - LS980
GSM 850/1900CDMA 800/850/1900UMTS 850/1900LTE 1900(25)/800(26)/2500(41)
T-Mobile - D801
GSM 850/900/1800/1900UMTS 850/1700/1900/2100LTE 1900(2)/1700(4)/700(17)

Canadian version - D803

Ok thank you, question solved! thanks
Hello guys...Im looking for a lg g2 for t-mobile but my question is if the d802 model could works fine with the LTE and all of the band network or should i need to buy the D801??? thanks!!!
My phone has 4G LTE enabled.
it was unlocked lg g2 d802 which i bought from amazon from california.
But it came with a rom with many taiwan apps preinstalled and model when i last checked was only D802 ,not D802T.
I checked on my cover and find it 4G lte enabled and also it has label on back with 4g lte.
I flashed many roms and returned to stock lg firmware.
I downloaded D802 firware and i have no 4G LTE option from network settings,just 3g only..
My question is,Does LG G2 with 4G LTE has a specific model no D802T.?
Is there a d802 firmware which gives me 4g lte option..?
Hi, I have a korean LG G6 G600L model. I am based in Germany and use the T-Mobile (DTAG) network. LTE Band 3 works but I would like to check the LTE band list on the device itself. Does somebody know the network test menu code for this specific device/network?
Additionally is it theoretically possible to exchange the modem driver to enable additional LTE bands (Band 20 in my case) ? Is it only possible with root?
Happy to test stuff on this device as I would really like to keep it and improve the LTE reception. I love the DAC btw.
Thanks.

Hello
Just a question
Do you think if i flash a different firmware (H870) in my mobile (G600L) i can receipt UMTS 900 ?
It will not help u to add WCDMA b8 900 to supported bands, because:
1. Korean submodels probably have no hardware antenna support for this band, which is totally unusable in Korea;
2. U will not be able to flash another submodel's stock to Korean models without root and some rom cooking preparations, flasher just restricts u to flash another submodel's stock;
3. In case u modify another submodel's stock enough to sucesfully flash it to Korean model, but without Korean kernel, modem and specific patches - it will probably softbrick ur device.

Thank you for your reply.
I will change my modele by another
So I can confirm that G600L is not only showing the bands but also work with them. Band20 and 3 successfully tested here in Germany. Now if it would be possible to configure VoLTE with T-Mobile or cross-flash the german firmware but still keep the DAC would be perfect for me...
Looks like the Korean version has the most international 4G LTE Bands. The rest of the models in Asia barely have any 4G LTE Bands. Not sure what is used with this. Is the Korean version a dual sim version as well? Anyone have a picture of the box of the Korean version? There is usually a sticker on there that shows which 4G LTE bands are supported on box

One more question.. Anyone here that has the Korean version able to tell us if it comes pre-installed with facebook? Do not want a smartphone with Facebook preinstalled that can only be disabled and not uninstalled.

how did you bring up that menu with all the bands? I have the lg h870ds model with hifi dac and 64 gig, but I can't locate the LTE bands to turn them on
Try the same but with 870 instead of 600.

based on the listed 3g and lte bands, I can assume this will work fine on tmobile us? any downsides?
what for this code *#546368#*600#
and in this menu "field test" is missing..... any one help Please.
Hi there. I bought an 'unlocked' AT&T H910 LGV20 from ebay.
I thought would work in the UK as the phone hardware has compatible 4g bands that my provider (EE) uses.
The stock at&t firmware only allowed me to use 2g/Edge.
So I have flashed several other roms / kdz files using LGUP
( h910 Puerto Rico, H915 Canada, US996 unlocked US - variety of android 7 and android 8)
Some roms (particularly Android 7.0 Canada and Puerto Rico) work with 2g and 3g but there isn't even a 4G option in the base menus.
Some roms have global or allow you to select LTE/3Gpp but they don't allow me to get a 4g signal.
One even said 4g at the top but when I checked the connection in phone settings - about - it showed 3g (and this was consistent with the download speed too)
II only got videotron Canada to work. Bell and Rogers should have an overlapping 4g band but I got the CUST error on those roms.
I have tried going through service menu but all that can do is sometimes force a 3g signal from 2g
So what should I do?
1. I s there a rom with overlapping 4g bands that would work? Can I flash a HK rom onto H910?
2. Can I root the phone to unlock 4g bands?
Would this survive unrooting to allow me to access microsoft intune (for work email), banking and sports apps (which sometimes don't like root?)?
3. Would a custom rom work? Which do you recommend to keep as many features as possible eg remote control, camera, DAC?
Do they also work with microsoft intune, banking apps, sports apps etc?
I have followed a few of the posts out there but given the ebay seller I wonder if a few more people in Europe might have been tempted!
Thanks!
Hi
You need Band 20 (800) to use with EE UK and according to GSM Arena list of specs for the H910 that version of the V20 does not have it and I do not know if it can be added.

Thank you!
I was led to believe the H910 (same as H915 in Canada) supported all of EE's 4g bands.
But for sure, the carriers seem to have locked some out. But not having any luck with other roms either...
I cannot post the url but
frequencycheck . com
carrier-compatibility/wwW4hXP/lg-h910-v20-lte-a-h915/ee-everything-everywhere-united-kingdom
Compatibility - 3 out of 3 bands supported
100%
Interface Name Supported by device?
LTE B3 (1800 +) Yes
LTE B7 (2600) Yes
LTE B20 (800 DD) Yes
As I said in previous post the H910 does not support Band 20 (800) check GSM Arena site select LG V20 and then H910 and select LTE bands and you will see that Band 20 is missing. The H915 is not listed.

I have a similar issue, having bought an "unlocked" H910 and having only 2G. Is this the file name of the H915 kdz file you flashed to enable 3G: "H91510e_00_VTR_CA_OP_1205.kdz"?
Thanks.
