Dear all.
I have US996 Unlocked.
My phone can't establish mobile data on CDMA network. EVDO and 1x is not work.
On LTE/GSM/UMTS mode, mobile data is working. but Only CDMA mode can't work.
Anyone, Has my same problem?
I need help from everyone. Thanks.
I'm confused. Have you tried setting it to LTE/GSM/UMTS/CDMA mode?
LTE/GSM/UMTS mode isn't going to connect to CDMA at all.
There is no LTE/GSM/UMTS/CDMA.

Hi. Thanks for your reply.
There is no LTE/GSM/UMTS/CDMA.
There is shown LTE/GSM/UMTS and LTE/CDMA.
Most Verizon variant model can connect EVDO network when set LTE/CDMA. But my US996 can't connect it.

Thank you.
But, when set Global mode, It's no change action. It's not work EVDO connect, too.
Abnormally, I can't set APN. When CDMA mode or Global Mode, The apn is not show anything. I try register the APN, It's not show any APN setting.
Another verizon device work our carrier.

My carrier is SKTelecom that is Korean carrier.
When I use verizon LG device(ex, VS985, VS987, VS980...any verizon device) on our carrier, that's work fine EVDO data network.
But, this model(US996 Unlocked) is not working now.
Thanks.

G2 seems to have worse LTE reception compared to few other devices I had, is there anyway to disable LTE and go down to HSPA or HSPA+?
I know my area has terrible LTE coverage, but for some reason it sticks to LTE even if it means I am forced to 0.3mbps speeds! Ouch.

You can disable LTE from the service menu,use the code 5457#*(your phone model here)# And you will find an option there with the bands to do so.You can enable only the ones you want and dissable all others.Dont change anything else tho.I cant tell you exactly where you will find it cause the menu is slightly different for every variant it seems.

Thank you so much, I remember now people were running this trick on Nexus 4, but sadly it did not work. When you say Model here, I just put numbers only right? I got the D800 from AT&T, in dialer I just hit 5457#*800# and hit call, nothing happens, I get invalid MMI error. I tried 5457#800# no luck.
However, using your suggestion, I found the code to access service menu, but it wasn't as clear as I hoped it would be so I did not touch anything.
Code:
AT&T LG G2 D800 Service Menu: 3845#*800#
T-Mobile LG G2 D801 Service Menu: 3845#*801#
Verizon LG G2 VS980 Service Menu: 3845#*980#
Sprint LG G2 LS980 Service Menu: 3845#*980#
I expected on/off switches, but there is WDCMA-Only, LTE-Only, and nothing else. There is no HSPA or HSPA+ only or any switch, and I don't want to hit LTE only assuming that will limit the reception to LTE and I will get stuck with no coverage when there is no LTE.
On Sprint, I can go into data settings via dialer (##3282#), and edit LTE screen (requires service code). From there, I can disable LTE and force CDMA/EvDo. Of course, this is on Sprint variant, not sure how AT&T/T-Mobile does it or whichever carrier you're on.

I am on ATT and I can't find this setting anywhere.

I also tried *#*#4636#*#* which does not let me go into OEM-Info or any Radio selection.
Why does AT&T do this!?
I believe if you go into settings and go into the mobile networks menu, there is a menu that allows you to choose whether the phone will go into LTE if available or just stay on 4G HSPA+. I'm getting my G2 tomorrow, so I don't remember exactly how I did it when I played with it in the store. If you can't find it, I'll let you know what it is once I get my phone. This is with the T-Mobile G2.

In order of Nice to Naughty,
Sprint
T-Mobile
AT&T
Verizon (wayyyyy low in the list, naughtiest)
So, considering above, I am pretty sure A&T disabled that menu you are referring to (In Mobile Networks) some confirmed it working on Sprint, but I don't think it is available on AT&T. I am stuck with LTE.

Sorry, missed it earlier when you said you were on AT&T. Are you able to go to Settings > Tethering & networks > Mobile networks > Network mode? With the T-Mobile version, there's gsm/wcdma/lte auto, gsm/cdma auto, wcdma only, and gsm only selections under the Network Mode menu. That would really suck if they diabled that setting. I'm assuming you're on stock unrooted.

Service code for the d800 is 3845#*800#
Go to LTE settings, modem setting, then select RAT then you can force what ever mode you want.

There's no RAT selection for me under the LTE modem settings. I have LTE Band Selection, VoLTE Radio, Null Integrity, and LTE-A CA.

Well I finally got the roaming "R" out of my notification bar and instead of just LTE it says 4GLTE now just like my previous phone (s5) on Verizon. Data, texts, mms, and calls all work. The problem is it doesn't stick after a reboot. After rebooting it's back to saying just LTE and the "R" is there. If anyone knows how to make it stick can you advise me please?
Have you disabled roaming itself?

I just tried that and i got no carrier label and no bars at all. In settings network is unknown, cell network type is unknown, cell network state disconnected. Service state says voice in service and data out of service.
And i just dialed *#*#4636#*#* and chose LTE/CDMA auto prl. Then swiped down my notification bar to enable and disable airplane mode to restart the radios and i have 4GLTE again. Changed the apn to VZW that i had on there i added. In settings everything is on and says Verizon.

I know that this "4G LTE" icon can occur when LTE-only mode is engaged...is it possible you had LTE only and were not connected to CDMA at all? I've had that occur in some fringe areas and I believe I temporarily had the "4G LTE" icon vs. just "LTE" in those cases...though it sounds like you had calling working so I'm guessing this may be a different scenario. Very strange though...

Yes that used to happen when my phone info was set on LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL). But earlier today i changed it to LTE/CDMA auto (PRL) and everything works and the notification bar says 4GLTE. It stayed like that all this evening till i rebooted a few mins ago.
On the phone info page after you dial *#*#4636#*#* there's the 3 dot menu on the upper right side. On that there's an option to select radio band and when you hit it you get 3 options. USA band, band mode 6 and band mode 7. So i picked USA band and on the main page i set it to LTE/CDMA auto prl. I sent an mms to myself and it works and speed test readings is 9.84 dl and 0.91 up. I just can't make it stick after a reboot.

Data Roaming needs to be enabled in order for Verizon data service to work.
Ahh. Well, leave it to Verizon to be that way. I know going through dialer was a option but even with sprint in the past as CDMA on some older aosp ROMs, prl auto wasn't even a solution. Sometimes roaming was preferred instead of prl. So that's why I started with questioning that. If the data entry toggle makes a difference, hen I'm glad that's the solution and rather it be something you can fix on demand as opposed to it being permanent because of a carrier back end problem - - problem being in the community eyes.
Can I ask what APN you guys are using because whenever I do get LTE it says 4glte and also no service

Well i found out with these settings i couldn't access my voicemail. I had a voicemail notification and you can't use the #1 button because it's not supported, so i used *86. It would dial out and connect for a split second and cut off. And i tried multiple times pressing the #1 and *86 to get to my voicemail but couldn't. So back to the old settings with just LTE and the "R" on my notifications bar. Thank you for the help!

These are the APN settings. On the APN type i got 2 different versions from different websites. One says to put "dun" and the other says leave it out. And on bearer one says leave it as unspecified and the other put LTE. This is exactly what i have on mine.
Name: VZW
APN: VZWINTERNET
MMSC: http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms
MMS Port: 80
MCC: 311
MNC: 480
APN Type: default,dun,mms,supl
APN Protocol & APN Roaming Protocol: IPv4/IPv6
Bearer: Unspecified
everything else: None or Not Set
Quick note you have to add the above APN. With a vzw sim you can't add one so you have to borrow a gsm sim card either att or tmobile and put it in and add this and save it. Then put the vzw sim and you'll see the one you created. Check mark this APN and you'll be good to go.
Are you all able to use HD Voice & video calling with the native dialer on the Verizon network? Some phones have an option under settings called 'Advanced Calling'. This is where you can turn on HD Voice & Video Calling for Verizon.

Not sure about video calling, but HD Voice/VoLTE, yes. The one Verizon topic you didn't bump P) has screenshots & instructions from someone who is using VoLTE with the native MiFavor dialer: https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/help/verizon-compatibility-t3420991/page41

Got through the Sprint process and had the G6 unlocked for TMUS. Got the APN set up. Issue is the phone is generally in 3G. I can see under the mobile networks settings, I have the following options:
Automatic (current setting)
CDMA/LTE (LTE yes, calling no)
CDMA
GSM/UMTS
Any idea if there is a way to get a GSM/LTE option. Newbie here, but the phone seems to have the right bands, just the CDMA centric Network settings.
Ideas?

Have you tried through the hidden menu
Can not get into the esecret menu. Get bad MMI
I tried to get into the secret menu to change the network setting, but when I try, I get a bad MMI message. I am using
<star>#546368#<star>993#
Was a Sprint model. (993)
Any ideas. I saw the secret menu on YouTube and it does seem to have the gsm/umts /lte setting I would need.
Just got a brand new Mi A1 and can only get it to connect to 3G network. I'm in the US on Cricket, but I can't seem to get an LTE connection. My other Nexus 6 is on LTE right next to the A1, but the A1 will only go 3G. Does something need to be enabled on the phone to connect to LTE?

Dial *#*#4636#*#* in dialer
Go to phone information
Then scroll down to "set preferred network type"
And chose "lte only" from there
Wait for few mins to get signal
If u get signal than cool but if not than switch it back to "lte/wcdam" to keep using 3g
And then probably mi a1 doesn't support lte bands of cricket
Looks like I may be out of luck. I can't post links yet, but if you check frequencycheck.com for Cricket and the Mi A1, looks like I may get 50% of the LTE bands at best. Guess this guy is going up on ebay.

APN settings are already exactly what Cricket specifies in their support pages.
I have Cricket in Chicagoland area and get 4G most places.
hello!
I am trying to set my network mode to WCDMA because I want to use data and receive calls on the same time since my carrier hasn't enabled VoLTE (that's another story...) but I can't!
The option is there, settings, more, Mobile networks, network mode, i make the change to "GSM/WDSMA auto" but it won't stick! If I go back and come again to this menu, the option is reverted back to "GSM/WDSMA/LTE auto"!
There is no luck either with the LG hidden menu, *#546368#*870# , it says "Connection problem or invalid MMI code".
Could this has to do with my modded kernel?
Any other ideas?
Here is my setup right now:
LG G6 H870
Android 7 Nougat V11i-EUR-XX
Melina kernel 3.18.62-melina-rel7_2017.12.31_uber-6.x_STOCK_zefie

what?
If i know that correct, WCDMA = 3g, right?
I want my device to be locked to 3g only, not 4g, because when I receive a call, it drops from 4g to 3g and I lose my internet connection, which is really frustrating if you are in the middle of a video call!
