activate preferred LTE band(s) permanently - LG G7 ThinQ Questions & Answers

I have G710EAW (LG G7+) which has by default active LTE Bands 1,3,5,7,8,28. However I live in Europe and I with my carrier I would benefit from band 20 as well.
What I am doing currently, is via service menu I am activating manually all the bands I need (including band 20) in modem settings. This works perfectly fine, actually I am so used to it I can do it within seconds. Naturally after phone restart all is reverted.
It is a minor inconvenience, hence the question: any idea how to make the setting persistent or any tool that would do it after each reboot?
I would like to avoid installing firmware from other model (if that's even possible, I am layman in this...)

I don't know if Tasker needs root but you may be able to accomplish it with Tasker.
Although it may be a pain to setup i think tasker has a subreddit that you may be able to ask somebody who uses it more than I do

Hi, I'm also looking to buy the EAW version for the dual sim feature. So you confirm the phone has all the LTE bands but some of them are locked by the software installed?
I need a phone dual sim that works in Europe and USA....

Well I do believe Qualcomm Snapdragon is an excellent platform and the build-in modem is capable of all bands. I do have EAW version (I think originally from Hong Kong).
The band selection is not available from OS, but if you dial *#546368#*710# there is a hidden menu where in
Field Test -> Modem Settings -> LTE Band Selection I have these bands available:
1,2,3,4,5,7,8,12,13,17,20,25,28,29,30,38,40
To my limited experience any combination works just fine (I am in central EU). The drawback is that after reboot (or airplane mode) only the default (1,3,5,7,8,28) are on.

Just for the hell of it. I tried on my US phone, can't even access the menu Sucks.

It works for me on the T-Mobile variant you have to use the stock lg dialer and type the code in you cant just copy it in

How do you know this has worked? I toggled on the bands that I need bu there was no 'success' or save prompt and if I exit and re-do the process all the boxes are un-ticked when I navigate to the LTE bands page.

Sorry for late reply.. I'm using stock dialer, and enter in manually, still doesn't work.. Maybe it is a T-mobile code or something.. I'm not use to having a phone were I can't access the hidden menues..

I'm having the same problem with Three UK, no 4G. Although 4G worked on my Lumia 1020 with the same SIM a few days ago.
If I go into the hidden menu under LTE you can set it to use LTE and it connects to 4G brefiely then goes back to 3G and it never shows GSM/ WCDMA / LTE auto in the mobile networks menu, just GSm / WCDMA auto.
I noticed on the demo unit in a Three store that the phones software version was V10a-EUR-XX whereas mine is V10g-HKG-XX.

Is there anything that can be done without root? I've tried setting the LTE in the hidden services menu and it connects foe a few seconds and then goes back to HSDPA. If seeting to LTE only it stays on LTE but not sure how it will work if I leave 4G coverage? I've also enabled fast dormancy but that doesn't seem to help.
There was a discussion about this in the UK thread, some phones came with 4G deactivated (on the 800MHz band used by 3 and Vodafone) that had to be activated at every boot. Replacing it fixed the problem as its not supposed to happen. But since the phone is from Asia who knows. Im not sure if flashing the eur version of the rom would work?

fast dormancy is a network dependant setting that has nothing to do with the generation of signal you are receiving.
The only other option you have is to try and flash another firmware version.

LTE will work from the hidden menu, or download 4G switcher from the Play store which will take you to the menu also. Just change it to LTE/GSM/WCDMA and it will work on the 4G network (at least on 3 UK). LG UK support will not help as it came from HK. I still want to know if I can flash a Euro 32GB ROM to my phone to get it working natively.
make sure u have activate your LTE with your carrier,i you have done it,and still didnt have LTE, try the hidden menu,or try 4G switch frm playstore,rooting and deleting lteconfig from system/app would be your last option (i prefer this)

my lte/3g/2g settings was everytime reset to 2g/3g modus when i got back to settings. i deleted lte config.apk and the .odex file, rebooted and BAM! it keeps on lte/3g/2g
Solved
I had the same issue (no LTE option in Networks configuration menu), until today: My phone installed firmware V10i-HKG-XX, and now I have the "GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto" option in Preferred Network Mode.

Do the following -
1. From the dailer, type in 3845#*855#
2. Select LTE Only
3. Modem Setting
4. RAT Selection
5. GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto
You should now receive 4G but everytime you reboot, you have to repeat this procedure

Accessing service menu

I was recently in Korea for work, so I picked up the G4 to bring back to the US. I bought it from SK Telecom, they told me phone should work globally. Now being back in the US, i popped in my Verizon Sim card and no mobile network is available. Phone is reading my sim and has the correct APNs, but still no connection. Does anyone know how to access the service menu to change bands?

I figured, but does anyone know how to access the hidden menu to view all the bands available?
5457#*500#
That should do however I can't access the main hidden menu to disable the throttling.
Thanks for the info 3rd degree.
I tried that on my H815 G4 but it didn't work (invalid code).
I also tried 5457#*815# but that didn't work either.
Unfortunately the 3845#*modelnumber# that always worked previously doesn't now. eg 3845#*815# just gives the invalid code error.
*Edit* the answer is in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/how-to-enter-g4-hidden-menu-t3122373
the code that works for me is 277634#*#

LG G4 H818N, can't get LTE working

Hi, I have a LG G4 H818N LTE model with dual sim running firmware v10c.
According to the mobile carrier, they support 900MHz and 2100MHz, yet I am unable to obtain 4G connection on my phone. I have enabled the option in the sim settings for "4G/3G/2G" on the SIM that I want to use for data and set that sim as the sim to use for data connection but it still only connects at H+.
Perhaps the carrier is using Cat 6 LTE. Is there a way to enable Cat 6 LTE on the H818N?
Is there a way that I can test LTE connectivity on the phone or are there perhaps any settings that I may have missed to force LTE connection?
I previously had an LG G3 D855 which connected to 4G without any issues.
Is there a file where I can manually edit the 4G bands for my phone?
Finally, slightly off topic. Can anyone explain to me what a KDZ file is?
Assistance would be highly appreciated. Thanks.
mine has a working LTE on both sim 1 and sim 2 but not simultaneously. i found out that the apn is alittle bit buggy. check your apn and set the primary.
Thanks, would you mind walking me through the steps that you followed please?

I'm having a similar issue with my 818N. I can't get 4G/LTE.
Has anyone worked out why or how to fix it?
The hidden menus don't allow me to select lte bands they all just say fail after I select them.
In the RAT menu I am unable to select LTE only, it also fails.
It's as if LTE is disabled?
I tried installing 818P software into the phone which worked fine however I still couldn't connect to 4G.
I give up
It turns out that my phone was faulty and I've returned it to HK for a full refund. DWI were good to deal with and were fast to refund me my money once they confirmed that it was DOA.

Problems Switching From Sprint to T-mobile

So, I was forced to switch from Sprint to T-Mobile. My phone is unlocked and has both CDMA and GSM. They put a new T-mobile SIM card in. They were able to get it to work on calls and text, but not data. The tech guy messed with it for quite a while. In the end, I temporarily switched to my old Moto X and it is working, so I have a T-mobile sim. The G7 has the same GSM bands as the Moto X so it should work.
I talked to an LG tech support specialist on the phone. He said that they cannot do anything due to proprietary software legalities, and that the phones are minorly different but there is no reason that it should not be working. He suggested that if it could be flashed to the T-Mobile software it would work, but of course they cannot do anything.
So what are the best options and method to get this phone to work on the T-Mobile network?
This is all in the US.

It would have helped if you told us exactly what model your G7 is.
What band is it defaulting to? Is it band 4?
Did you try a factory reset?
Try band 2, 4 and 12 in the service menu. I forgot the code I think its *#*#546368#*#*
Also, after changing bands in the service menu, you must go to "Network mode" and choose "Auto" (calls will instantly disconnect if you don't).
Yes, it has been factory reset X 2.
Model # LG-G710PM
Build # PKQ1.181105.001
Software Version G710P21b
Android9
I tried to enter the service mode as you wrote it, but no go. Double checked the code, it says to use *#546368#* plus the last 3 numbers of the model # (in this case 710) and then #. still no go.
It is set on Auto.

Question [5G/LTE Locking Bands] Reward?

Hello! So I got the Pixel 6 Pro and I am coming from Galaxy S20U (Owned Pixel 1/2/3/5)
So on my S20 I can change NR/LTE bands as much as I like without root by using an app or the hidden menu *#2236#
Where I work all day its all concrete walls, so me locking LTE Bands its a must.
I can not do that on my google Pixel 6 PRO and yes I tried *#4636# but those options do not work with me because you can not lock bands.
I am ok If I need to root my 6Pro in order to do this, Will Network Guru do this once rooted? I am willing to include reward $ for whoever helps me with this.
Thank You
I'm sad to say that Network Guru simply won't work because Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro uses Shannon Modem for 5G, which is an Exynos modem (if i'm not wrong) and Network Signal Guru requires Qualcomm Modem to work.
**edit: typo**
Under settings__internet__gear wheel next to your carrier and scroll done to preferred network type. Unless you don't have that option.
I'm still trying to figure out diag modes for this phone. I can get the modem and serial devices to show up. Per my conversations with cstark:
resetprop ro.bootmode usbradio
resetprop ro.build.type userdebug
setprop sys.usb.config acm,dm,adb
setprop persist.vendor.usb.usbradio.config dm
Revert:
setprop vendor.modem.logging.shannon_logging false
setprop persist.vendor.modem.logging.shannon_app false
Click to expand...

Everything seems to be controlled by /vendor/bin/modem_logging_control and /vendor/bin/dmd.
Regular START/STOP calls to modem_logging_config from root shell can yield usable logs. We can also get the apps started in special SHANNON_DM or SHANNON_APP modes, but no idea what to do with them.
For example:
modem_logging_control START
modem_logging_control SHANNON_APP
modem_logging_control STOP
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Logs saved to /data/vendor/slog/.
The Shannon DM version floating around is too old and I haven't gotten a decent scat setup. Airscreen might work but Network Signal Guru doesn't. No tools for this phone are good at the moment.
And that's the extent of our knowledge at the moment...

Thank you, I will try to be checking on this if decide not to return the phone. Is Airscreen a Magisk Module?
No, it's a desktop app. There is no band locking.
Can someone tell me the benefits of this mod? Genuinely interested.
Lower frequencies penetrate walls and concrete better than higher frequencies in the spectrum, at the cost of speed.
Locking a 5G/LTE band helps save battery life because it prevents constant hunting for a better signal between bands.
You can try your luck with 'Shortcut Master' app on Google Play. Once opened click on show all apps -> Phone services -> scroll until the bottom and click on band or radioinfo and click on Launch. Then you can change the band and frequency as per your liking.
No wifi at work?
A lot of workplaces have strict firewalls and network policies in place so it's understandable to use your own network connection for non-corporate usage

With this method let's say I choose class 9, it will remain locked?
I believe this is a WCDMA band selection and will have no effect on LTE/5G, am I wrong?

I think you can simply turn off 5G from the settings menu. (You can also set Prefferd Network type to LTEOnly from Radio info... *#*#4636*#*#)
The sad thing is that you can't fix the band in Network Signal Guru (or any other APP).
This may be difficult to do unless Google provides a development tool that supports Shannon modems.
The above looks like something different, aiming more at 'by region or country' to me. Not the traditional band selection found in other devices. It'd be nice to find out if we can systematically program these to hunt on certain LTE/5G bands. I am on a tmobile migrated sprint plan on my p6p. It works great except for that fact that where I live band 26 is garbage. The only solution realy is to find that sweet spot when it swaps to 25 or lock it into the device. So would be nice if the google momos release it, you know, in the spirit of open source, like they initially set out to do so many years ago when android started.
good news everyone. version 4.0.4 of Network Signal Guru has band locking for the pixel 6
