[Q] Re-enabling 4G? - Thunderbolt General

So, when I got the phone I wanted to turn 4G off to safe battery. So I went onto the market and downloaded the LTE On/off app and used it accordingly. However, I've changed multiple roms and now that I've re-installed the app and want to enable 4G again there is no option for it at all. LTE is not mentioned in any of the setting options. How can I enable 4G again or get the options to show?

What ROM you running? Had the same issue running Liquid.
Try fixing permissions?

Wireless settings, mobile networks, select network, cdma/auto or LTE. If that isn't there I don't know.

You shouldn't need the LTE on/off App
You can just go to the wireless and network settings and enable it there and you should see LTE and CDMA Auto select it and it should give you back 4G, unless of course it is down. Good luck.
Also try and uninstall the LTE on/off and re install might help also.

If for some reason, it's not accessible in mobile networks as mentioned above (it depends on the ROM you are using), it might be in the notifications > quick settings or you can dial *#*#4636#*#* on the phone and it will bring up those settings.

I'm running Liquid.
And it's not showing up in phone information, wireless settings or anything.

IIRC, not a setting in Liquids ROM. Above 4636 method works, 4G/LTE shows up as unknown. Be advised, last time I switched to 3G and tried switching back to 4G it would not connect, stayed on 3G. Had to reload a different rom and re-aquire 4G. Oh well, I just leave it on 4g. Btw, also running Liquid GB.
Doesn't really answer your question, more of a heads up.
Good luck

On Liquid GB 3.2
I am running Liquid GB 3.2 and here is how I was able to get my 4g back up and running:
Settings- Wireless and Networks-Mobile Networks- Network Mode- I set mine to CDMA+LTE/EvDo auto
I have played around with the different setting in the pop up menu after you hit Network Mode and the CDMA+LTE/EvDo auto seems to work the best for me.
Good luck and let me know if that helps solve the issue.

maybe you should try a custom rom. no problems over here.
he shouldn't have to try a custom rom to fix something that shouldn't be a known issue. i haven't heard of that problem at all so far. maybe you have a bad device?

yeah its not all the time, but i jsut notice it..strange. almost like a "power saving" thing
It's not your device, mine does the same thing in low building with low reception. Coming from the captivate this phone definitely has worse reception, I would always get 3g on the captivate, but now It bounces from edge to H+. Hopefully they can fix it. Atleast the GPS works.
hmm actually look at settings > wireless & network > mobile networks > enable always-on mobile data
maybe its not checked on? mine was on by default

Its not on because it intelligently toggles data when connected to wifi. I imagine if you toggle it always on, it will...always be on...
sorry, i meant mine was enabled by default.
Switch to a desire HD Rom, I get constant data unlike before on stock

Is your account provisioned for "4G" (aka HSPA+) data access? If you don't know for sure, I'd check with AT&T.

4G LTE Problem CM10

Flashed on verizon CM10 and now 4g does not work. wiped and flashed again and still 4g does not work.. so confused
Did 4g not work from the start? The most important thing to make sure is that you don't mess with any settings under the Mobile Networks menu in Settings. I've found that when I even look at that I lose data, don't mess with mobile network toggles either. Also download the Phone Info app from the Play Store and set the network service to LTE/CDMA auto (PRL), that has worked for some people.

Seems to be a common problem, reverted back to stock fixed it.

Yeah, did you mess with them the second time? I did the same thing and I just backed up my user downloaded apps with Titanium Backup and then reflashed CM10 and the GApps and stayed away from data, so far so good (although I've only been running this second flash for about 4 hours). If you want to try that I believe it should work for you too
My experience running CM roms 4G is usually one the things that don't work in early stages of the rom

Phone Info from the app store fixed this for me. Switched it over to LTE/CDMA/EVDO (didn't have a LTE/CDMA auto (PRL) option...?)Currently running 4G just fine on Synergy 1.1.

[Q] Thunderbolt wont hold Network Connection

]On my HTC Thunderbolt, I have it set so the wifi is off and the Network connection is on. Even although it's switched to the "on" option, once I leave the settings page, the connection (either 3 or 4 g) is dropped and i cant access anything requiring an internet connection. When I go back into setting, the connection is on the "on" position. as soon as I go to access google play or My Verizon data, I no longer have a connection. What is up wit this? I need to connect.
thankyou to all who read and respond to this. Greatly appreciate it!
I get the same thing on mine after installed cm. Anyone know a fix before I try a different from?

How to turn off Connection Optimizer?

Hey everyone!
Does anyone know how to turn off connection optimizer for the Sprint Note 5?
I had the option to turn it off under Mobile Networks, but it seems to be missing from the Note 5.
Thanks!
I too have been having a problem with my wifi. Is connection manager hidden or somthing. Atfirst i had to enter ##data# and add null to the apn settings. Now when my hotspot is on i constantly get a message attention turning on wifi will disable hotspot. And also sometimes my phone will just randomly restart. I have uninstalled every app and i mean everything including alot of key modules just to see if it was an app trying to turn it on. Its really driving me crazy.
I'm also having the same issue. Hopefully we find a solution.
Settings> WiFi> More> Smart Network Switch
I feel that they may have switched the name up.

I thought this as well, but I wasn't getting the desired results. I went to a repair center for something else and asked about where to find the optimizer setting and the employee there thought that it should be there in settings. It is on the s6+. He had me do a reset to see if it would show up, but no improvement.

So you're saying that the S6+ has the connection optimizer setting, but the Note 5 doesnt? Damnit Sprint/Samsung..What a mess

General leaving WiFi and then onto network issue

Now let me start off with this happens when I was on Verizon and now on ATT and with several different Samsung phones. I have an S22 Ultra now.
Really not into rooting anymore but might get back into it to run better roms and take over Android Auto. I hate AA it's too pushy taking over everything. I stopped using it. I'm old fashioned and not taking calls on my truck I would rather use the bluetooth headset.
Sorry...
Ok onto the issue. So you sitting in the house hotel whatever on WiFi you leave and then phone goes to the network automatically. I have no internet just sits and try's. I can fix this by rebooting the phone or go into airplane mode and out. Then all good to go.
Makes me to never use WiFi on my phone ever. Kinda annoying.
I'm I going nuts or is this an issue across the board?
.
Reset your network settings.
Why go through the trouble of resetting your network?
Go into Settings -> Apps -> Andoid Auto
DISABLE THE DAMN THING. I HATE ANDROID AUTO. It's what I did.

This has nothing to do with Android auto. I was asking about going from wifi to cell network and no internet.
and resetting network settings is an option like @pjaysnowden said.
Thanks
ok so I reset my network settings and will report back after a few days. I was having issues with my bluetooth devices disconnecting all the time and that seems to be better now. So we will see.
Ok well resetting the network and losing all my saved wifi data was a waste of time as I have found resetting the network data never fixes anything.
So still if I'm on Wifi and then leave the wifi then the phone goes to cellular automatically I have no internet unless I power down and back on or airplane mode on and off.
This all started on several different phones and with ATT or Verizon when this 5G crap rolled out.
If I force the phone on 4g all fixed does not do this. Very Strange.
My fix never get on Wifi. LOL
.
Sorry if this was mentioned before, have you tried messing with the "Intelligent Wi-Fi" Settings?
Settings -> Connections -> Wi-Fi
Tap the 3 Dots in the (upper-right and select Intelligent Wi-Fi.
Make your adjustments accordingly

Don't see much in there that would help with cellular network internet connecting when moving off wifi? I did look though.
I'm not having issues with wifi at all. It's the cellular network when going off the wifi.
Ok I just forced the phone off of 5G and use 4G LTE only on ATT. Network is faster and no longer have the leaving wifi issue. As for Android Auto. I removed it form my phone altogether. It's not worth the hassle. It also it not ready for prime time. LOL
5G is not ready for prime time yet... It suxs
Hi, is this happening to you with a specific wifi network or is the same with all of them? Is your WiFi signal strong when this happens?

No this happens no matter what wifi network I'm on. Really a PITA. I switched over to 4G and have not had this issue. Like I said. Did this on Verizon and ATT and different phones. I using the S22 Ultra now.
Thanks
