[Edit] Posted also in General Discussion: consider answer there if the solution is not strictly related to P8
My P8 used to be set to use 4G network, it was set in automatic mode 4g/3g/2g
something like this, if I remember correctly
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
For a test, I switched it in 3g mode, so now the settings are:
Now the problem is that in network mode selection, I have no option "4g/3g/2g". only these options:
How to revert to 4g mode? I read around that I can use Settings > Backup & reset > Network settings reset , but according to this link, it resets too many things
Here my phone infos
I assume this is a just a bug in the user interface, not showing the desired network mode
Is there a way to work around it, maybe manually editing some configuration file? or even better some hidden setting screen that I can use?
I'm on a rooted device and can use Adb (not an expert, but I can use it somehow)

This is more of a work around to the problem of not having a compatible software app for the SGS to easily Switch between the different data modes to either save battery or prevent unnecessary 3G data on limited data plans
(I tried all the 2G/3G switchers and other alikes, but none were compatible with our SGS)
There's a simple way to Turn Off G/2G/3G/H without going into Air Plane mode is by simply creating a null or empty APN setting profile like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
using the same method you can create an APN profile that is only for MMS, this way you can still get SMS/MMS and Phone calls, without incurring extra data or wasting power on GPRS/EDGE/3G/3.5G
I used APN on/off fro Market....works great.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
ahh... great suggestion, this one actually works!
APN on-off Widget
all the other ones i've tested previously didn't do what it's supposed to do, all of them only takes you to the APN page with was kinda useless
added to my list of good apps

Is it possible? I mean both phones largely support the same bands and both use the same chipset.
I think it is possible but not so easy. All S5 branded have a lot of costumization about config and setting. Not just on kernel and system. I have G900L with same hardware of AT&T and g900F and i have try to flash a full stock g900f firmare and got brick.
Also flash custom rom brick the phone (it say can't boot in normal mode and bot always in download ODIN modem)
I also try change modem files phone work but not LTE
Maybe need flash all phone with Bootloader PIT/EFS and other partition not just kernel/System or need a custom Mod for fix some deep setting.
Actually with a sim 4g LTE but different carrier frequency i got every boot phone this message and is pretty annoyng

and if i try change manually 3g/LTE in network setting i miss menu voice at all
Sorry, can you explain how to change the modem files? and after it changes, the mobile network menu still displays a same option or added a new option? (like network mode, etc. as picture below)
Hey guys, been having this problem for a while but finally had enough of it!
For a start, in the wifi list in settings it doesn't show me which network I am actually connected to.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
In addition if i tap another wifi network which despite already previously been connected to it , it will still ask me for the password again, after which it keeps saying failed to connect, it wont let me connect to it
I have been getting around the problem by using WPS on my wifi router and "WPS Push Button" in the settings menu when I'm home to get it to connect to my home wifi as opposed to "BT OpenZone" every time, which is quite frustrating!
I'm rooted on stock rom , Build Number KOT49I.D80220h however this problem has been ongoing atleast since before the last 2 updates.
Any ideas/troubleshooting I can do??
Cheers amishra123
Tried resetting to factory defaults?
I haven't no. What's the best/easiest way to go about backing up before and restoring afterwards ?
LGBackup on the phone should suffice. Just make sure to copy the LGBackup folder to a safe location (like a PC/laptop).
Hello guys !
In this tutorial I will teach you guys to access stock data usage without root.
Data usage is present by default in android phones but for some reason it is hidden.
So,here is the method.
1. Download the app "HiddenApp Launcher".
2. Look for Data Usage in the list and long press it.
3. It will create a shortcut of Data Usage.
4. DONE.

I don't know if we're talking about the same thing, but afaik there is nothing hidden with the Honor 5x as this is the 4th options in the settings in Stock firmware, same with all Samsung devices or small chinese brands devices... ^^LOL
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
We aren't talking about the same thing. I'm talking about stock data manager which is usually present in settings>more>data usage.
And obvio it isn't hidden in Samsung phones. ?
I have KlW-L21. Well after doing a bit of search i have come to know that in my VARIANT of phone THAT option is missing in traffic management app. Like seriously. ?

To get all to work on sprint. Use Advanced signal statusl app in playstore to switch to cdma only then to lte only, then to lte/cdma auto prl. If it looks like this you're Done.
Good luck,...hit Thanks
