Anyway to toggle 4g to 3g?

Just got the revolution. 4g is killing my battery. I was wondering if there is anyway to toggle between 4g and 3g?

settings/wireless networks/mobile networks/system select/network mode/ select cdma only and it will reboot.

unfortunately, the only way to do it makes the phone reboot.. wonder why.. the charge can do it without rebooting

Widget
So theres no toggle widget like the evo? Kinda a lame. Does this cut all mobile data or does it just set me to 3g. Stupid questions ,but just asking.

setting to cdma limits it to 3g which is kinda useless since 4g allows for voice + data which is a big deal. it really is dumb how it has to reboot. hope a rooted rom fixes this somehow.

I think that would require a radio update from LG if i'm not mistaken. Someone will correct me if i'm wrong. I guess a rom dev could fake a reboot or something possibly. I really don't have that big of an issue letting it reboot.

Nah, looking through the code and it doesn't seem to *require* a reboot, it's just LG's cheap way to avoid having to tell all the 4G-related frameworks that 4g isn't available anymore.
They took the easy route it would appear.. (however, I haven't dumped the radio just yet, so I honestly dunno if it's required by the radio)

I mean... uh... switching 4g off w/o a reboot would be amazing!

I second that! I just used the *#*#4636#*#* method on the Thunderbolt, but alas, after four TB's, I decided to jump ship. No reboot was required. It would be awesome as said above by powder.

Lte switch from market place works great.

Which one? I've yet to find one.

The name is actually lte switch. Out requires a reboot. But works great.

why download a app for something that is already built into the phone menu? Lte switch was usefull for my old thunderbolt, because the only other way to switch off 4g was to type in a number into the dialer.

[Q] Does the RoamControl App Work?

Has anyone tried the RoamControl app on the stock One? (non rooted)
Just want to run stock for a little while to make sure everything works well when I get my phone next week. I will be rooted shortly after, but I do like the widget on that app to switch roaming modes.
Peace.

You have to be rooted to use roam control

No you do not. I used it on my EVO 4g and 3D before I got root on those devices. It even states that it will work on some non rooted phones on their website. I sent an email to the dev, but I don't expect him to get back to me before I get the phone. Lol

I tried it on my unrooted HTC one, the app takes very long time to try roaming, but fails. I checked it under about, it says "Not roaming". How did you make it work, thanks.

I'm rooted, using v 1.4 of roam control which had been reported to work with the one.
my set up: using PRL 01115
Mobile data > network mode > automatic
Domestic voice and data are checked.
I am able to force the phone to roam and the roaming 3g speeds are at least double that of sprint's 3g speeds.
hope that helps.

Thanks.

So it appears we can no longer use RC on multiple devices with the same activation code.
They are offering RC for $1.00 for a short time so jump on it
I have it installed on my HTC Evo LTE and my HTC One

just purchased it and it works great on my htc one

The newest 2.8 update fixed all the licensing problems for me, but their support was frankly atrocious and did not get back to me at all. By the time they pushed the 2.8 update, my 7 day window for a refund had expired, so I wasn't able to refund/rebuy at the $1.
I have no problem with paying a dev for their work, but keep in mind that their e-mail support seems very hit and miss, which is poor form.

Enable ART on 24a w/build.prop?

Is there a way to enable ART on stock rooted 24a via build.prop? If so what do we need to change?
Sent from my VS980 4G using xda app-developers app

Yeah, I've been scouring the web for this as well. I can't even find a decent guide to what all of the build.prop parts do, much less where ART is hiding.
Anyone out there know anything about this? I hope we don't have to wait for Android L to do this, because you know Verizon will be the last carrier to allow it.

I don't think all the LG legacy apps are compliant with ART, specifically quick remote, something to consider if you use it.

Yeah, there's that... Maybe we're better off waiting until LG updates the G2 to L, as ART will be the default.
And hopefully LG will use that as an opportunity to update their own apps.

I'm really keeping my fingers crossed that Rovo figures out how to enable xposed on ART, I know I won't be updating until that happens. Xposed is too d*mn useful...

I'm glad you asked this question. I had wondered the same thing. Now I've discovered a whole new area to explore. I had no clue there was development for all variants in a different thread.[emoji2]

I didn't either, and apparently, Mahdi is the most popular G2 ROM currently available. Not to mention, it was recently updated on 6/11.

Because dr87 is the best developer on here for us. Fact ? I've been running it since the first build in January. So awesome. He's pumped so much source from the N5 into this ROM, its incredible. Stability and performance is second to none.

I installed it but my wireless charging did not work so I uninstalled it. Anybody knows about a fix?

Is see its available for Verizon correct

Does the inductive wireless charging works in your Verizon G2 with this ROM?

I don't use the wireless charging, but I heard people say it does.

Any G3 based Roms yet?

I just went through a bunch of posts and I am not seeing any Stock G3 ports yet. Has the firmware just not been released yet?
Sent from my VS980 4G using XDA Free mobile app

Look in lg-g2 android development section, there are several g3 ports for "all variants"

I use CloudyG3. Absolutely love it!

xdabebb is supposedly putting together a ported g3 rom for the g2 based of the Verizon G3. There is no eta but he stated that he should have one available in the coming weeks.

I just upgraded to LG G3 from the G2 with cloudyG3 installed and still thinking in going back to the G2. Cloudy is so smooth in the [email protected] that it i unbelievable. Only thing that prevents me to go back is the SD card slot of the G3 otherwise G2 with Cloudy G3 best smartphone out there and I have had them almost all.

So CloudyG3 works with our Verizon G2? The thread there says only GSM phones are supported.

This is what I was referring to with my question earlier. I am looking for something that is Verizon based. Hopefully in the near future.

Cloudy does work on a verizon g2. I'm using tmobile on one right now and it works perfectly

T-Mobile is GSM, that's why there's no issue with your MMS. It's a Verizon phone, but you're running a GSM network on it, not CDMA.

Both g3 ports that are gsm based work pretty rough on Verizon. I was roaming most of the day.

I had some signal issues when I was using cloudy G3, sometimes I'd lose service completely for about 30 seconds then it would come back.
