Hey guys I was wondering is it possible that we can make a piece of software that can give us the ability to select the radio band manually? Any thoughts or comments will be appreciated.

I believe there is a service menu, I'm currently looking for that myself. There is an app called lte discovery but that may only let you see which band your on.

thank you that does let you choose which preferred network to use, but I think op wants to set specific bands of the network. On my old s6 there was a code that let you set these to whatever you wished, but have tried it and doesn't work.

Hey guys, I'm having problems making my carrier settings stick on my phone.
Almost all of the rest of the settings did stick such as phone, but don't have 1X or EVDO, because the MIP and PPP settings keep resetting back to Verizon's.
Can anyone please help me out with this?
Thanks.

What carrier?
It's a mexican one, called Iusacell.
I got to type some values with MDN on MIP, and others with MEID on PPP; it seems that those tabs are the ones that are locked...sadly.

Yeah, just tried again, and *#*#4636#*#* is the right combo. Can you change the radio band? Mine always getting "Unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped.".

There's a pretty handy app on the play store that makes a shortcut just to this. It's called Network. Author is Philipp Mangelow. Cannot post a link yet due to low post count.

It should be that as default, mine is. I force LTE via the testing menu myself.
This is a bit of a workaround but it'll get it done.
If you add telephone.lteOnGsmDevice=1 to your build.prop, it'll enable "Preferred network mode" in mobile network settings. You'll be able to select LTE/WCDMA. Hopefully this will keep you off GSM.
Perhaps there's another flag that'd enable the menu offering WCDMA only.
preference not saving
I have both 2G and 3G network available but i want my phone to connect to a 3G network only ... i would like to set this to "WCDMA only" but after every reboot its switching back to "WCDMA Preferred".
Is there a way we can save this preference ?

Hi All,
I recently bought Unlocked Galaxy S8 SM-G950U1 and activated on Sprint, after the activation, the phone downloaded some software and rebooted, it does have WiFi calling enabled, but when I call using Wifi and I walk out of WiFi range it doesn't switch to carrier and disconnect. Also when i am not on WiFi, it uses carrier network, but the internet is not available. I googled and find there is new feature called "Calling Plus" from sprint for Galaxy S8, but I don't find it on my phone. Can someone please guide me on how to download it? If this update is not available for unlocked version of S8, can someone point me to a ROM which provide these features?
Thanks in advance.
Sounds like "Calling Plus" is their name for VoLTE (voice over LTE). I'm not familiar with Sprint but generally this is enabled in an IMS settings app or menu.
If you download a shortcut cut app, do you see an app called IMS Settings that can be launched?

I use Shortcut Master (lite). With its menu you would choose App Explorer and see if you have IMS Settings app. If you do, that is probably what you need to launch, and basically just enable everything within it.

ok I did some digging and Sprint says this on their website:
Is Calling PLUS the same as VoLTE (Voice over LTE)?
No, the current Calling PLUS solution provides VoIP capabilities using the Sprint LTE network. Sprint is on a path toward having an all IP-based network capable of supporting VoLTE. We have not announced a timeframe for commercial deployment of VoLTE. Today we offer HD Voice on a very efficient CDMA1x platform and our voice network is ranked #2 nationwide by independent mobile analytics firm RootMetrics. We will transition customers to VoLTE when we are confident we can match the great voice experience provided today.

I am thinking this is the same with T-Mobile Wifi Calling where you have to have some underlying apps/framework to have the feature available
Since you are on the stock unlocked firmware, this is probably absent.
The latest Sprint firmware I see on Sammobile is this one from December 2017
If you are not yet rooted you can just flash that with Odin, and use the CSC app (launched via Shortcut Master Lite) to switch the phone's CSC to SPR, though this will wipe the internal storage.
If you are rooted, you would need to find a ROM that is made from/for Sprint I believe.

Sorry for late reply, so right now best solution will wipe my internal storage... thanks for replying... If I have to wipe storage, I would rather root and get some nice rom.
Guys, I found a way to make VoLTE calling work on my unlocked s8 plus.
1. In Nova launcher add widget -> Activities
2. Add LTE Test -> click VoLTE Test UI-> turn on first 2 setting.
3. Add Enhanced LTE Services and select this option.
4. Restart and enjoy.

HOLY S***~!!! It worked~!! You're the MAN~!!!! :good::good::good::good::good::good:
I tested it out on my 955U1 Unlocked GS8+ on the latest Beta 7 Oreo software.
I am glad it worked. I was literally jumping at my cube when it worked too ?.
to sharmajay: tried to use your trick. Was able to find #1 and #2. But on #3 it only shows blank screen, no check boxes, nothing, blank screen.
I'm on AT&T network running 7.0.

Hi xda community,
I brought my new LG G6 from abroad to the USA and my carrier is AT&T. However, don't get a LTE/4G connection, H only.
My older G4 gets 4G right away and the G6 covers all the G4 specs and AT&T actually offers the G6 as well. Any advice or is it just not possible?
Thanks
