EDIT: Clearly now that there are custom ROMs, this will be less likely an issue. But @icheyne pointed out a good method that will work on most ROMs I believe, since it uses Android's default testing menu.
For those seeking a permanent solution, you WILL need root.
Currently no permanent solution on LG Stock Lollipop.
Here is some information about my situation:
-Currently on Fido Network in Canada (LTE Band 7 [2600 MHz])
-I have achieved LTE speeds of 31mbps (Down) and 25mbps (Up).
-I am rooted, but it should work without root access.
-Firmware is stock V10h-TWN-XX
-Network mode only shows GSM / WCDMA
Before you begin, this is what you need:
-An LTE micro sim.
-Do some research on which LTE bands your network uses and if your variant has the ability to use that band.
-Correct LTE APN settings for your mobile carrier. Make sure it is LTE APN, my carrier has two separate ones (Regular, LTE).
-Mobile Network does NOT have to be turned off (You can keep data on during all of this).
-With Mobile Network on, go into Settings -> About Phone -> Network and remember what is written under "Mobile network type".
-Make sure you are in a location that has decent LTE connection.
METHOD FOR LG STOCK LOLLIPOP
1) Open up your Dialer, and type in the following to enter LG's Hidden Menu: "3845*#855#" for D855 (If your model is not listed, please do Google it!)
"3845*#850#" for D850
"3845*#851#" for D851
"3845*#852#" for D852
2) Go down and select "LTE-Only" and go into "Modem Settings"
3) Now select "RAT Selection" and click on "GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto"
4) Without rebooting, the data icon switched from "H" / "3G" to "4G" for the first time (Turn on Mobile Network if you haven't already)
5) Now go into Settings -> About Phone -> Network and under "Mobile network type" it should have "LTE" instead of what you had before
Currently no permanent solution, each time you reboot, switch to 2G/3G, or go into "Mobile Networks" menu, you will lose LTE
But it's okay, redoing steps 1 to 3 will get LTE back once again. Tedious, but at least it works
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
QUICK METHOD (Working for all Jelly Bean ROMs & some Lollipop ROMs) (Thanks to @icheyne)
1) Go into Dialer -> Dial *#*#4636#*#* -> Phone Information
2) Scroll down to "Set preferred network type:" and click on the pull-down menu
3) Select what type of setting you want, I personally keep it on "LTE/GSM/WCDMA"
4) Select "LTE-Only" and go into "Modem Settings"
5) Without rebooting, the data icon switched from "H" / "3G" to "4G" for the first time (Turn on Mobile Network if you haven't already)
6) Now go into Settings -> About Phone -> Network and under "Mobile network type" it should have "LTE" instead of what you had before
7) [ROOT][Permanent LTE] For myself, I used a root explorer (ES File Explorer) and go into "/system/app" and delete (or move) LteConfigs.apk and LteConfigs.odex. Now you should be able to go into the "Mobile network" menu and it should have the "GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto" setting. Thus making LTE a permanent option.
Those without root access will lose LTE if they restart, switch to 2G/3G, or try to go into the "Mobile network" menu.
If you have any questions, please leave a reply. Hope this helped.
If anyone who cannot get this to work, please post with your details (firmware, carrier, LTE band, etc...).
i have heard some reports that updating some settings in the hidden menu will work, but after restart, it will just go back...hmmm.. this one retains the LTE option?
Yes, after having it on for a few days, restarts, as well as going to an area of weak reception will not affect it. It will sometimes jump back to 3g in weak signal spots (underground), but after I go outside, it will switch to LTE automatically. I should probably update the title since I've learned that this applies to other models as well.
EDIT: @chacho_2me So I found out what breaks the LTE, but it's not major unless you manually switch from LTE to 2g or something like that. Step 11 should say it all, just don't go into the mobile network menu, and you should be fine.
thanks dude..currently im roaming....will try this one when im at home
thank you so much sir.. hope i could help you sometime
I really dont know why LG didnt notice not having the LTE option on othe releases
anyhow...thanks again dude
@chacho_2me Very sorry, I don't know what happened, but unfortunately restarts reverts it back to 2G/3G. But I'll look around to see what I can do to get it to retain, will most likely need root.
If it already states LTE under Settings > About Phone > Network, would you still recommend going ahead with this tweak?
@Curleyyy Are you getting LTE reception though? If you are, then you don't need to do this. This isn't really that much of a tweak, more like just some hidden settings, that's all.
If I'm not mistaken > 2G > 3G >4G > 4G LTE ?? Reception around my place is usually 3G with a bit of 4G occasionally.
@Curleyyy In terms of speed, LTE is currently the fastest. But reception wise, it might not be the best choice. If you are in an area with poor 4G/LTE reception, it is best to go with 3G connection. If you like to find out exactly which regions have 4G/LTE, I'm sure your carrier will have that information on their website.
Thank you so much
It's working fine on Fido. A heartfelt Thank you
Cheers
I found a solution that doesn't require knowledge of the network's LTE bands:
Dial *#*#4636#*#*
Click Phone Information
Scroll down the page to the GSM/WCDMA dropdown.
Select LTE/GSM/WCDMA - the data icon should switch from H or 3G to 4G.
[ROOT ONLY] Using a root file manager (ES File Explorer) go into "/system/app" and rename LteConfigs.apk and LteConfigs.odex to LteConfigs.apk.bak and LteConfigs.odex.bak
Reboot
Go to Settings -> Tethering & networks -> Mobile Networks → Network Mode and select GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto.
@icheyne I confirm that works, I will change the post.

I need to change lte band. What way i have. Secret menu ont allowed me to do it in Android 5
Oh dear, that's inconvenient. I don't have lollipop installed yet, since it's been quite busy for me and I need my phone. I will try to update the guide for Lollipop.
When I can test it personally, but for now, if you could try to surf the forums. I am short on time lately, I do apologize.

On mine, only the .apk file was present, not the .odex file. I have flashed a stock-based lollipop rom. I renamed the .apk file and the lte was added to the mobile networks menu, but my phone is still not connecting to lte .
It is correct, the "phone information" menu loads on lollipop, but an error message pops up overtop and you can't get to the settings due to this.
I sure hope I can get this working or I'm going to have to get a different device!
@vinistois Thank you for reminding me about this. I do apologize in advance for not keeping up with this as I am still sticking with JB for the time being. I just flashed L to try to clear things up. Are you currently rooted? And do you have the D855 model?

Lol was going to say the same
Sent from my LG-D852 using XDA Free mobile app
Compiled from FCC information and Wikipedia for two of the Moto E LTE models:
FCC ID IHDT56QC8 (XT1528) -
This LTE transceiver supports high-speed wireless data communications within LTE Bands 2, 4, 5, and 13, with channels up to 20 MHz in bandwidth.
FCC ID IHDT56QC7 (XT1527) -
This LTE transceiver supports high-speed wireless data communications within LTE Bands 2, 4, 5, 12, 17, 25, 26, and 41, with channels up to 20 MHz in bandwidth.
From Wikipedia:
2 = 1900Mhz (PCS)
4 = 1700Mhz (AWS)
5 = 850 (Cellular?)
12 = 700 a
13 = 700 c
17 = 700 b
25 = 1900 g
26 = 850 (SMR?)
41 = 2500 (old WiMax)
So, the Verizon model (1528) will technically support LTE on AT&T and T-Mobile bands 2 & 4. It has all three Verizon LTE bands (obviously) - 2, 4, 13. You would be missing LTE on AT&T band 17 and LTE on T-Mobile band 12.
The other model (1527) will support LTE on AT&T in 2, 4, and 17. Will support Sprint on 2, 25, 26, and 41. Will support T-Mobile on 2, 4, and 12. Technically it might also support Verizon on 2 and 4. (Verizon is currently using 4 as part of XLTE in certain markets, and I don't know if think are running LTE on 2 at all. )
It appears that the 1527 model is the better one to get for band coverage, unless you want Verizon LTE on band 13.
Found a third model. From FCC docs:
FCC ID: IHDT56QC1.
This mobile device is also equipped with an LTE transceiver. This LTE transceiver supports high-speed wireless data communications within LTE Bands 2, 4, 5, 7, 12, and 17, with channels up to 20 MHz in bandwidth.
This particular variant will work on LTE on AT&T in bands 2, 4, and 17. It will work on LTE on T-Mobile in 2, 4, and 12. It will work on Verizon's LTE on 2 and 4, but is missing Verizon's core band 13 (700c). Not sure which provider is using it with on band 5 (850). This model apparently (compared to QC7) is missing the Sprint LTE bands completely (25, 26, 41).

Does the Verizon XT1528 support GSM bands?
All postpaid Verizon 4g lte have UNLOCKED GSM bind if I am correct. Has Verizon been able to block GSM bands in the Moto E 2015?
I have been trying to figure this for last couple of days.
Thanks

I got the VZW Moto E working on a AT&T GoPhone SIM. The phone complains that it isn’t a VZW sim and there isn’t an option to switch to GSM is the settings menu. Though you can definitely adjust that setting elsewhere (no rooting involved). Just install this app "4G LTE Switch" . All the app does is spawn an activity that is actually in the Android Settings app that normally is only accessible by a special code in the dialer. Motorola has removed that special code, so you have to get at it this way. This app is hardly the only one to do the same thing. You could do the same thing from APEX launcher by selecting the right activity to spawn in the Android Settings app.
Once you’re into the Phone Info menu, just scroll down to “Set preferred network type” and choose LTE/GSM. Once I did that, the phone connected to AT&T LTE. I was able to place a call as well. I also saw it drop to H+, so I know UMTS was working as well. If you reboot the phone though, it will revert to “LTE/CDMA” mode and you will again have to change it back to “LTE/GSM”.
A STRONG WORD OF CAUTION... There is a menu in the upper right hand corner of the phone info screen. In that menu is an option to "Set Radio Band". In there, you will be presented with two options. Choosing either option will limit the bands your phone will use at a given time. It will not open up more bands for you to use. By default, your phone's baseband (the processor that controls the radio) will select bands automatically without restrictions. Once you make a selection from this menu, YOU CAN NEVER GO BACK TO AUTOMATIC MODE. (Never say never... you can just reflash the baseband to reset it... but you don't want to have to do this) A factory reset doesn't fix this because this setting is made in the phone's baseband and not within Android OS. Bottom line, don't get curious and use the "Set Radio Band" option. I made this mistake with a Moto X and was finally able to fix it by reflashing the baseband.

This intrigues me as well. Airtel, the most popular carrier in India, runs GSM 1800,900 UMTS 2100 LTE 40 (2300). The VZW Moto E according to the RF Exposure Report on the FCC for IHDT56QC8 says that the Moto E only supports CDMA 1900,850 GSM 1900,850 UMTS 1900,1700,850 LTE 2 (1900), 4 (1700), 5 (850), 13 (750). That would mean that there is no way that a VZW Moto E would run on Airtel. Does the phone support more bands than are listed in the FCC filing or did you do something else like flash a different baseband?

Appreciate the warning, but there is a simple workaround I just accidentally did this and the radio was disabled, but if you set 'LTE/GSM' in the app, and then go into normal 'settings -> Wireless & Networks -> More -> Cellular networks -> Network Operators -> Choose Automatically' will bring back auto selection.

This thread is for those who feel brave enough to venture into this settings menu. No, that isnt a challenge, its a warning. Even if you follow these instructions down to the letter, I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone. THIS MENU CONTAINS STUFF THAT CAN HARD BRICK YOUR PHONE!!!!
That being said, heres the reason for this thread. Some of us have ventured into the sim unlocking of our devices for a myriad of reasons. Some of us are planning on using the device on a network that uses LTE bands that Sprint doesnt. That being the case, there are some LTE bands that are disabled by sprint but the phone is still physically capable of connecting to. In order to enable all LTE bands that the phone is physically capable of, you can do the following.
from the dialer, dial
*#0011#
hit the upper right menu button, select key input, and type a capital Q, then ok. then menu again, key input type in 4 zeros "0000" and hit ok. Menu again and hit the back selection, menu again and hit the back selection. It can take up to 30 seconds for it to give you the next menu and you may need to repeat that process, but once the menu is up, make the following selections.
UE SETTING & INFO
SETTING
PROTOCOL
NAS
NETWORK CONTROL
BAND SELECTION
LTE BAND PREFERENCE
LTE ALL
if the LTE band youre trying to use isnt in the list above "LTE ALL", then the phone isnt physically capable of that LTE band, and if you absolutely NEED that missing band, youre going to be best served by getting a different phone made for a carrier that uses said band as its not possible to add LTE bands that the phones physical radios arent capable of connecting to.
First want to put it out there that you do this at your own risk
I love that T-mobile has Band 12 LTE coverage but for me the data speeds on Band 12 are horrifically slow, so I prefer my phone to be on Band 4 LTE (at least while at work).
I used to do this change all the time on my S6/Edge and the steps are vary similar to do them on the S7(slightly more involved).
To start with, if you mess with bands, it can(and probably will) affect some sort of your service
So to change network bands you have to enter the service menu. To do this, go to the phone dialer and enter
*#2263#
Once here you will see a screen saying ServiceMode followed by various options
To turn off Band 12 choose LTE Band Preference (#4 on the list).
Then hit next page until you see Band 12 and deselect it (this will remove the * from next to it).
Once that is done, in the top right you'll see where it says "More" select this and choose "Back" - do this until you get back to the main page
Now back at the "Main Menu" choose "Apply Band Configuration" (option 7) and you're done.
Once you exit the menu(by hitting either home or the back phone key) you'll lose signal for a second while the phone switches the bands around.
To revert back to normal, enter service menue *#2263#, choose "Select All Bands"(Option6) and then Choose "Apply Band Configuration" and you're back to normal
Hope this helps someone
EDITed the info above so that you can turn off just Band 12 and keep calling features
Updated the instructions, figured out how to make the phone stick to Band 4 and still retain ability to make/receive calls
Oh Ya band 12 is terribly slow. At least when compared to band 4. Band 4 is wideband at 20x20 20mhz bandwidth while band 12 is 5mhz bandwidth. It's just barely enough.
I was wondering why my speeds suck since I've upgraded to a new phone guessing this is why
Do you have any approximations of the speed difference between the bands, like with speedtest or something?
I didn't notice any difference in speed with my tests was really hoping for better. I'm only getting about 15-20mbps now I was getting between 60-80 about 3 months ago

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I'll get some later tonight - something is going on with LTE around my work and Band 4 and Band 12 are both acting up
I cant access *#2263# menu on my galaxy s7 edge exynos version
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
