No 4G connectivity - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
Currently I'm on network Three in UK. My LG G2 is sim-free. As you know Three started to provide free 4g service. But the thing is in the settings menu there is no option to chose 4g connection , only GSM and 3G. I should get 4g service because I live in London and 4g works here since December. My software version is D80210f-EUR-XX. First time then I turned on the device I got a small app update which is called LteConfigs , but nothing happened after.

Try this one: type this code *#*#4636#*#* and then take first option and scroll down and then you can select only 4g. Maybe this works.

Are you sure the three 4g roll-out has reached your area? I'm on the same software version and can choose LTE in the settings menu.
Try putting a Voda/EE sim in and then check.

Yup, Yup, Yup, yup, yup, yup & yup!
See this thread. Unlikely you will see any LTE stuff on your G2 yet from all accounts but in reality what speedtest are you getting? From deepest darkest Berkshire I am getting OK results for 3G

check notice under pink 4G data writting.. they scrapped their 4G and they gonna be powered by EE : http://www.gsmarena.com/ee_and_three_combine_forces_in_new__pound1b_lte_deal-news-7726.php

I had this same issue. It turns out my phone was from Asia. Accessing the service menu does indeed enable it but only until you reboot your phone.
The only cure I found was to flash a UK stock rom. Very easy to do and now I have 4g everywhere I go (well almost) :good:

I'm on Three. I bought an international D802 LG G2 from ebay. It had an d80220a-ame rom on it. Three didn't recognise it and LTE was not an option. So I reflashed with the Open EUR ROM using this method and it worked fine

Froyo feature update all apps in download in the market

Unless your using something like APPLANET. I think APPLANET does that. I could be wrong. For those who don't know, APPLANET is almost an exact replica of the Android App Market... Only difference is every single app is free in APPLANET.

even with full 2.2 market you won't find flash player due to current minimum requirements... as taken straight from Adobe's web site "Dedicated Cortex A8 (ARMv7) 550MHz App Processor with Neon for A8 only"
see the following links : requirements and currently supported devices
so it looks like unless Adobe drops their minimums then even with official FroYo the best we will see is Flash-lite

[CMW ZIP] Orange UK ICS Signal Boost

I thought i would create a new CMW flashable zip for people on orange uk moving to Custom Roms, or even those who are on generic firmware but don't have this capibilty.
It basically enables Signal boost technology (UMA) for our Galaxy S II when in low signal areas.
This CMW zip works perfectly. This zip is tried and tested on AOKP (Hydrog3n ICS) using Siyah Kernel.
However Give me and others feedback on if this works for you on other Rom's.
Remember this is Orange Network only!
Find the zip attached.
Just flash in recovery.
Here's an emergency link in case the xda one becomes unresponsive....

Can I just confirm this is only for the orange branded S2 that contains nfc? The reason I ask is I have an unbranded S2 on the orange network (through phones4u)
I'm guessing this is no good for me?

Just flashed it. Now to see if there is any difference.
I installed it and now I have no signal at all. When I go to networks it says please insert sim. I've rebooted several times and have also taken the battery and sim out and put it back in.
I have an orange sgs2 but with sim free firmware installed from odin.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. Go to This Link and download the 3GTurboCharger_Installer_Update_3_RC11_Test_1.sh.pdf file, which should, as far as I know, be the most recent update.
2. Download an app called SManager from the Play Store ( I downloaded the one with the adds). Link To It On The Play Store
3. Open up SManager on your phone, the first time you run it it will give a pop up box, you have the option to enable "Browse as root" select that and give it root rights.
4. Browse where you downloaded the script to, on my phone it's in "/mnt/sdcard/Download" click it and there will be a pop up asking you how you want it to run, the
only thing that you should do is click the little skull and crossbones icon that has "Su" written underneath it, near the top left corner of the menu, wait for the icon to
turn green and then click "Run".
5. You will now be brought to a menue with a list of things to choose from, I chose option 4, to be on the safe side, rather than option 5, so tap your screen to bring up the keyboard and just put the
number of whatever option you want to go for, so for me it will be "4" and then just press the enter button on the keyboard.
6. Wait for the installation to finish (It takes a maximum of about 10 seconds) then it will ask you to choose an option, type "12" and hit enter, to reboot your phone to apply the new configuration, and enjoy the awesome speeds!
If you need any more help, or if you're not clear on something I've written, don't hesitate to ask and I'll do my best to help you out!

Well, I beg to differ, before used the script, I was getting 5mb down speeds consistently, now that I have used the script, I've done 3 tests, all of which are 10mb+, if it was just a placebo, I highly doubt it would still be on the XDA Forum

I just got this phone and haven't played with development yet. But I assume it works like on the S4. Editing your build.prop to match the model variant you want the icons from works.

Try changing the ro.product.name
And any other that have your g2 model to the g2 model you. Want. I did it this way with the s4,
That's pretty cool can you do that with the wifi symbol?

Question. I'm on VZW. Does this property affect anything else in the operation of the phone? Mine says, of course, VZW, but I like the look of the AT&T icon.

Ok. Found it. Changed it to ATT. Still stuck with the same 4G icon :/
Did you restart your device?

Yep... it was set to TMO, and T Mobile has a pretty sweet 4G LTE icon, but no dice, same dull 4G icon remained, even after changin it to ATT

Did you save the build.prop before restarting device? I know it's a silly question, but sometime people forget to do the little things.

Boost signal strength?

So I have the vs980 version and for some reason despite Verizon's "amazing service" I find I get a crap ton of failed sent text messages. I live on long island and should have 4g coverage almost everywhere but find I get less than 3g a lot of the time. Is there anything I could do to boost signal strength.
I see custom Roms say they can improve signal. How do they go about doing this?

I am also on LI and I travel throughout the Island all day each day and outside of a few towns I always see a solid 4G signal. In about what area are you having issues and only getting a 3G signal. The issue maybe the phone and not the Rom.
Pretty much anywhere to be honest. Think I should take the phone into verizon and see about it? I am usually in Brookhaven and get crap service.

Also for another reference. This is old but still useful. This is normal service strength for me.

Different kernels do signal boosting job after root...
But first try factory rest...
If problem resist and u are out of warranty..
Then try using dorimanx's kernel stock...
Do some research on kernels first...
Hope it helps.....
Did you get a new sim card with phone or just transfer your old one? I ask because I tried to use my old one when I upgraded and it did not go so well... Constant dropped 4g and bad battery drain. Switched to a new Sim card and it was like I got a new phone. No 4g drops since. I know it seems like a simple thing but it really made a bug difference for me.

The phone came pre installed with a new Sim. Think I should try and get another new one?

It wouldn't hurt. If you tell your provider you think it's faulty they will normally just give you a new one. If not they are only a couple dollars I think...
