I know on my s4 there was a dialer code that let me choose lte only, because my phone usually doesn't connect to lte (usually hspa+) because lte is only two bars in my area even though it works perfectly fine and its double the speed of my hspa+ (40 mbps avg), so is there anyway i can force my phone to connect only to lte? (there is a 2g only mode and a wcdma only mode but no lte only mode, and i know calls dont work on lte but i dont care)

*#2263# (*&band#) -> LTE Band Preference -> Any of the item
Dial *#*#4636#*#* on the dial pad, on the top right menu select the option to Select band on the next screen, select Band 6. I am constantly locked on Band 4, after making this change and my internet speeds has jumped significantly.
Please be advised, that you need reboot your phone and it might take about 15 minutes to sync your new settings to VZW servers after you make this change.
Let me know, if this helped anyone else.
I tried this and idk if it helped lol
I know Band 4 is XLTE, but what's Band 6?

In the selection band, you dont have Band 4. You need to select Band 6 from the list.
How do you see what band you're currently on?
Use LTE Discovery app.
It says it changed to band 6 but LTE discovery shows band 4 even after a reboot
It is supposed to Show Band 4 on LTE Discovery. That is good. Now do a speed test and see improvements.
no improvement here. same ping and upload speed. dropped 6Mbps on download speed.
how to i change back since there's no option for band 4 in the settings?
If you selected Band 6 in that Menu, that should connect u to Band 4 or Band 13 on Verizon. Open LTE discovery app and see which band you are connected on now.
But if you want to revert back to your previous settings.. You can do a network reset from the backup & menu option under settings.
I don't have any issues with VoLTE or speeds on Verizon.
This worked, very good! I was experiencing slow speeds, especially upload speeds and this fixed it!
I remember on my note 4 I was able to dial *#2263# and it would allow me to force lte only. This helped at home because it usually picks up 3g, but there is an lte signal available also.
How to speed up jio connection?
I am posting pre configuration also as well as in case pre configuration not work you can try at your own hit and trial method.
Pre config -
I am not providing any downloadable files or content. This process needs root and volte supported roms. Custom lineage and its based roms still can have issue. It will work best on eui roms ( stock and customs) .
App need -
Net guru (free) - download
1. Download net guru app. And give root access . It will take some time for configuration.
2. Wait untill it shows LTE testing.
3. Now go to menu and select lock bands.
4. Now select LTE and select "B3 1800+" band.
5. Restart and. Enjoy new speed.
Reason to lock only this band -
Coverage + speed too.
Check speed by trai app.
If above method don't work then follow till 3rd step and now select 3 individual bands at which jio works and check your speed at individual bands and lock them at your most preferable band.
Details about bands:
Jio is using 3 LTE bands for 4G:
Band 3 (1800Mhz),
Band 5 (850Mhz)
and Band 40 (2300Mhz)
If LTE Bands are arranged according to services then
Best 4G coverage*: Band 5 > Band 3 > Band 40
Best 4G Speed*: Band 40 > Band 3 > Band 5
Average 4G speed*: Band 40 : 30mbps+Band 3 : 14mbps+Band 5 : 5mbps+
Extra -
1. After Deleting app band locking still works.
2. Restarting doesn't affect band locking.
3. Updating roms or changing also not affect band locking.
4. It's not necessary band 3 will give you more speed or coverage try according to your area. Mine is most suitable at B3.
Working - Sim - up. Working in Delhi, haryana and up.

Hi everyone,
Network signal guru is not working on rooted Oneplus 5. It shows the details and all but i wanted to use its Lte Band Locking functionality. However Lte band option is not visible in the options list.
or else if anyone could point to the correct secret menu code for this phone for native lte band selection?
or some other app which can force lock onto specific lte bands on this phone?
Thanks
