I have an AT&T LG Optimus G Pro e980 20h. We have 3G on the 900 mHz band. Is it possible to unlock this band in this phone? Does it have this band hidden? Could this be done changing to a custom rom? Please, help me with this.
I have gone through this forum, but have not found an answer yes...
Thank you very much....
yes, it is easy to do it.
i flashed my phone (e980) with e988-20c, then flash back att modem.
enable hidden menu to choose "WCDMA only", then "modem setting", choose "network mode" to enable WCDMA 900, you should see "success"

Hi,
My XDA1/T-Mobile PPC is on the XDA Developers SER 1.2 ROM and it has utility wherein I can change GSM mode from GSM900 to GSM 900/1800 to GSM 1900. I recently upgraded through the T-Mobile WM2003 ROM and Radio exe file. Now, I wish to have that utitlity again becuase now I am in asia and it is practical to have the GSM 900/1800. But I am also been goind to the US from time to time so I don't want to lose the 1900 BAnd. Is there a utility somewhere where I can change band?
I saw somewhere that I can change band via the bootloader: I am not familiar with the bootloader can somebody tell me how to change my band to 900/1800? Is it easy if I want the 1900 band back beacuse I'll be going to the states in a months time, and after that I will be back in Asia again (so I have to change to 900/1800 again). Pls help. Thanks.
BTW my device information is as follows:
Hardware Ver. PW10B1
ROM: 4.01.16 ENG
Radio: 6.25.02
try changing which rom you have, maybe that will change the band

Hi,
If your device is B type, that means it's 900/1900 MHz (plz refer to the rear sticker and don't rely on the device info data!) ... so, in Asia you are stuck with 900 MHz ... anyway, changing the band from the bootloader is not that safe action ... some times it make the xda hang a need a many hard reset actions to get back.
I would advice you to get XDA II which is tri-band by design.
The latest official US T-Mobile ROM v4.01.16 still allows the bands to be switched within the OS, whereas with the latest official US ATT ROM vA.30.09 said to be able to switch automatically.
Thanks for the replies. So it is not recommended to switch bands with bootloader?
reydiodj: What do you mean by switching bands within OS? Does that mean I can still get 18000 frequencies?[/b]
thanks for the replies. No need for me to change the band, my device already works perfectly now.
I have a Defy European version with Firmware UK 2.2.1. WCDMA 900/2100 standard is marked on the box. I check Defy (Western Europe) official page and it says the same.
Is there any possibility to enable WCDMA 850 on this Defy?

Hi mate! You should look there http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944258 Cheers.
Thank you.
I tried that one before I posted my question. I'm still confused about the frequencies that Defy supports. European Defy is compatible with WCDMA 850 but just locked by the Firmware?
You should check this thread with your FCC ID. It may give you some insight in what frequencies your Defy supports.

Seems like Defy is software locked. I had a problem with gsm 900 on my Defy. It could only register on gsm 1800. So, i had to flash chinese frequency file. Now it's ok.
Try this. type *#*#4636#*#* and then click phone information. Then click the hardware menu button. You will have set of options to change band. See if this can help you. Select whichever country you want.

Thank you. But it doesn't work and always show "Unsuccessful" whichever band I set.
Could anyone kindly confirm that it is "Possible to enable WCDMA 850MHz on European Defy"?
Hello, I am writing to inquire about a problem that I have.
I have the F240L, and wore the ROM "SphinX GPRO KK V1.5", all good so far, but I have problems with 4G.
I have only 2G/3G reception.
I've been to "Hidden menu"
Then I selected "LTE-only"
Then "Modem Setting"
Then "LTE Band Selection"
And I select "Band 7", which is used by my country Chile to the 4G network, but then I again I enter the same menu and was not checked. :crying:
Someone who can help me.
thanks
LTE band
Having the same problem here, but i think its because of this;
F240K for KT Corporation – LTE 900/1800, Band 8/3
F240L for LG UPlus – LTE 850/2100, Band 5/1
F240S for SK Telecom – LTE 850/1800, Band 5/3
these are the supported band for specific models. I Think it cannot be changed using software because this is hardware related.

And flash a modem Hybrid?
Or modifying buil pro?
Flashing a modem means flashing the correct radio that maches the hardware. So basically hardware baseband cannot be changed.So it won't work. And build prop is for ROM properties. You can't use it to change the baseband.

Hi there
I have a unroot-unlocked L-04E and want to use it with Wind in Canada. I am going to secret menu 3845#*04#-> Networkmode and want to select WCDMA AWS but there is a Fail message.
Any advice about how to make it work. Flashing mode, m band etc.. (There is Rooting method for this phone on Japanese websites).
Also I didn't have any luck with LGL21 (au version of E970) to make it work with AWS band. just I discovered its modem is identical to AT&T E970.
