Using Verizon LG g2 on T-Mobile - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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?

For some reason I can't upload a screenshot of it

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

Random loss of reception?

Anyone experiencing this? Sometimes ill be on the internet for an hour then randomly my signal will drop and after a minute or so it will come back. Also if I haven't used my phone for awhile and right when I'm about to Google something the internet cuts off then comes back a minute later.
Im trying to figure out if its my phone or T-Mobile fault. Its not roms or radios because Ive tried a few different ones.

The op may not have answered his own question. I have similar issues with my phone. Found a few little glitches with how my phone reacts to firmware. I need to write up my findings in a new thread. Pretty interesting stuff. I had a big issue that I was able to fix and it may work for a bunch more people too.

I domt think so, i have noticed, with stock, i get a strong 4g signal. BUt when i switch to different roms, the signal fluctuates.
I have tried: Darkside, creamed glacier, cm7, virtuous unity affinity quattro
Dclaw please share your findings!
Btw my gf also has a mytouch 4g but its stock unrooted and has the same problems as me.

Happens to me quite often. I'm running the latest radio and I think that's the problem for me. It never happened with the previous radio it had. Reason I haven't messed with it is because it works great in the city and I'm always on wifi at home. It bugs me because I send a text and signal drops to 0, "message not sent, will resend when data services are available." back to 3 bars, then resends.

I have the Panache here in Canada through Mobilicity, basically the same phone with a different name, and this is a known issue with the entire batch they sold. I'm pretty sure it's a phone issue on HTC's part that doesn't seem to have a fix for it. I can't remember what the reason was exactly but google Panache no signal or something like that and you should be able to find it.

Random lost of signal
Hi erverybody,
"dclaw_fantum" said he found a suggestions for that, but what is it? I am with Mobilicity (Canada) too and I have the same issue with my phone (also the panache). My friend is also with mobilicity but has a different phone and not any problem like this. It is strange because I am having full reception and it just turns of... totally. At least there should be a GSM signal or WCDMA signal, but it just turns off. Sad that HTC is not trying to fix this, as it seems an issue for a lot of people. Greetings.
It has to do with your Rom that your using or Radio either or can be your problem.

MyTouch 4G with Wind here. Same issue.
Tried 3 different radios and 2 stock and one custom rom and I have the same problems.
I've been leaning towards the problem being a combination of the radio and the rom and how they interact with each other rather than just one of them as it doesn't seem to make any difference what combination of the two you use.
I'm not a developer though, so I might be way off...

Same issue here with a couple of stock MT4Gs on T-Mobile.

[Q] Verizon LG G2

Hello! I am curious on a feater of the LG G2 im heartset on it and my only concern is that you cannot get the brightness toggle in your notification bar? I am aware that the ATT version and international have it out of the box and was curious if there is an option anywhere in the phone to activate it on the verizon G2?
Thanks in advance!
Screenshot of my Verizon LG G2, brightness toggle is there. Stock Rom 4.2.2 no mods yet: )

[Q] Verizon G2 wifi tethering

All,
I am eligible for an upgrade in two days and am thinking of pulling the trigger on the VZW G2, but only if there is a way (w/o paying verizon) to wifi tether (mobile hotspot). I currently have the galaxy nexus and use the "wifi tether" app for tethering (my galaxy nexus is rooted). However, from my research this app and others do not work. Is there a way to wifi tether from the verizon G2?
Thanks
There is a mod listed in the dev area with good directions for installing.

That looks like it should do the trick. Lots of folks posting successful results. Thanks!

Verizon screeching during calls fixed?

I bought a LG G2 on launch day and loved it except the screeching during voice calls. I had it swapped several times until it was realized that it was a software issue. My friends exchanged their G2s for the same issue. My question is, has this been fixed already or is the update rolling out today meant to fix this issue? Thanks.
That's definitely not a software issue. I've not had a single issue with my g2. To me that sounds like hardware. Easiest way to find out: download stock unrooted Rom in verizon development section, flash it and then test. If you're rooted just download the rooted stock Rom and flash as usual in custom recovery. If it's software a clean flash should do the trick. I'd be surprised if it wasn't hardware related though.

Nah, it was software. I did flash quite a few ROMs and it didn't help. I had the same issue on my Note 3 and a software update from Verizon fixed it. I'm just curious if they've fixed it for the G2 yet.

Yes, if you are stock, unrooted, take the update. If you are rooted, flash one of the new radios / modems for Verizon here:

I flashed the 12B version and everything has been perfect since.

I was leaning towards software bc I haven't experienced any of those screeching issues. If it was software one would think it would effect more ppl. Glad the update got you squared away.
I'm waiting for a rooted zip of the ota.

Got it on 12B, but only during a 4G to 3G switch, then dropped call. Coverage inn my house is spotty. Otherwise, sounds great.
Had it on my gnex and sounds the same on my g2. Definitely a Verizon thing.

I didn't notice anything of the sort on my Gnex or G2 on Verizon. Towers maybe?

Happens only on very low signal /4G to 3G switch to me. ^
Normal really.

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.
