Oh ok. I tried that but the option isn't there. It has all the other data there but doesn't give me the option to change bands. I think maybe I need a hidden menu apk from another lg? Thanks though

Hey man ive finally find the solution but first your device must be rooted so as to access the buold.prop file. To enable network selection mode edit build prop using root explorer change the following line from ATT to OPEN root is required for this.
Chek the photo to know to line. That's all enjoy dude

What's the purpose of enabling preferred network? Should I do this? I have a D950.
I just tried this now. I am here in Florida with Cricket wireless and service has been spotty. I think the mod stops priority of the LTE and allows for other speeds to function. Stopped getting spotty LTE and now 4g but at higher bars.

3. Changing this disables hidden menu.
I really dont know why this happening. But i have confirmed this by doing/undo changes many times.,.. but is it because of issue no 1?

It would help to know which app and what you did. From past experience only reflashing gets you going.

Use the Phone Info app like this.
Now if you go to Phone Information, menu, Select radio band, there are 4 choices:
-USA Band
-Cellular
-PCS
-2-GMHz IMT2000
If you select any of these then some of the frequencies are turned off and there is no way I know of to turn them back on except reflashing the phone. You should only back out of this menu,
and if one of them turned off I should flash with the original stock rom or I can use the batakang too?
Sent from my MB525 using xda app-developers app
in phone info app, click phone info, and then scroll down to set preferred network type. gsm is edge, wcdma is 4g ( my preferred batterys saver), and lte is 4glte. gl mate this should fix it, the other 4g changing apps cause me to lose signal too.
I really need help guys, I got this model atrix mb886 i havent been able to use tethering option. First i have an issue when trying to turn it on because it was being fowarded to at&t website to set my hotspot account, i fixed that using one of the tutorials found here changing some settings with SQ Editor app then seems to be working fine but when connecting to any other device (laptop or tablet) is not trasmitting no signal and im not able to browse. I have read a lot of tutorials found here. I have also set up apn settings like my provider suggested to but still doenst work. I tried to change the apn type adding dun after default (default,dun) i got an error message that is restricted and can be only provided by the carrier. Im done with this ive tried everything you guys can think of. I need help. My phone is rooted, it runs official OS 4.1.1 and im using it in Panama (my carrier cwpanama) it is unlocked everything works fine. However my tethering and mobile hotspot doesnt. I googled it nothing found. Please help me guys. I open this post because nobody seems to have same issue. Thanks in advanced

You also need to change the dun_apn_changeable to 1 with your SQ editor. It's in the relevant threads.

I discovered this while digging around in the hidden menu. Accessed via dial pad in your phone apk by dialing 3845#*959#. (959 due to the 3 numbers in the device variant). Other carriers /variants use their last 3 accordingly. I don't know if this works for all carriers or not. I only have a D959.
First off let's learn why the "tether dun" option by using sqlite editor and changing the 1 to 0 doesn't work nor stick after reboot.
Carriers seem to have become wise to this hack since its been around from the first Moto RAZR XT912. And probably before that. Seems they have found a way to still tell whether or not you're tethering by monitoring the data stream and seeing the desktop user agent or style that is used by laptops and desktop PCs and/or other tablets use when tethering off of a devices hotspot.
So with that said there needs to be a way for carriers to disable this feature. So I went probing through my D959's hidden menu and found the option. I'm posting screen shots (hopefully in order of the method used) as well as my account page showing my hotspot usage has ran out at 3 gigs free that comes with my unlimited data.
I'm not responsible for your device or lack of following instructions to a "t". Its your phone and your choice to try or not.
With that said here we go:
First create new APN in your " access point names settings" to mirror that of your stock APN. And add to the APN type line - ",admin,dun"
The do the following :
1. Go to dail pad type in "3845#*959#
(The menu comes up)
2. Scroll to find option named " settings" click it
(Another menu pops up )
3. Scroll to find option "up sell url". Click it
(A smaller menu window pops up)
4. Chose " TMUS hastetheringoption". Click it
5. Back out like normal. I don't know if this matters but I use a 3rd party hotspot toggle as to not enter the T-Mobile hotspot apk.
6. Profit
Sorry to those of you who have trying with no luck due to I left out a step. My fault I apologize.

UPDATE: I have been using this script from the LG G2 forums on Jellybean 4.2.2 and all has been working great. Smanager works great at changing the 1 back to a 0 on boot. So no more having to do it manually.
LG G2 forums with script -
But since I've moved up to KitKat and still using said script, I got a message stating I've used all available data allowed for my WiFi hotspot. What? All available data? How could this be when I'm clearly changing the "tether_dun_required" -1 to a 0? Well I don't know if T-Mobile got wise to us or what. But I found another line in the same settings using sqlite editor called
"Package_verify_enabled". It also has a 1 (for true) out beside it. So being that I need my hotspot for my son to play xbox360 live, I changed it to a "0" . and what do ya know? I now have working WiFi hotspot and I tested this mod out for the entire Florida St. vs Louisville game tonight while streaming it to my Nexus 7 (2013) at work so all the co workers and I could watch what we thought and what seemed to be a Florida St. ∆$$ whipping but sadly enough Florida St. Pulled it out at the end. But on a good note, the WiFi hotspot hack still works.
Good luck

It never stuck after reboot and I always had to change the user string agent but editing the tether dun required value worked for me.

Thanks for the response. I'm currently running stock kit Kat (when i upgraded it borked something with the ability to connect in different modes with my computer, i can only connect with the "pc software" option) (getting new one sent on Monday) so it can't be any frozen programs. Not sure what it could be though really cuz I've never really messed with the hidden menus on phones. Always had build props and custom roms to do that stuff for me.

I have no idea about the other variants of the g flex. I have T-Mobile d959. I'm not even sure if those options are the same in the other variants. I do believe the hidden menu is still accessible with the 3845#*your variants number# but beyond that have no idea.
UPDATE 4-27-14 :::
I've had my hotspot on all weekend watching YouTube, showbox, surfing the web, as well as my son has been doing the same and even had his Xbox 360 tethered thru it and my hotspot data amount is still sitting on 3.0 gigs according to t-mobile's built in apk that is linked to our accounts. The T-Mobile folks no the apk I'm speaking of. It doesn't update instantly but does do so at least twice a day or more. Here's a screen shot showing. Notice the dates.

After reading my original post I left out a step. Make your own APN setting and add to "APN type" ",admin,dun". And reboot then follow original post.

Hello, I tried this and it didnt work so I deleted the new APN I created but ever since my otherwise amazing data speed and connection has been inconsistent and spotty. Even looses signal sometimes which has never happened. Speeds are also not as good as they were.
I set the " TMUS hastetheringoption" option as advised.
My question is what is the default setting so I can go back to it as I believe it has something to do with what I am experiencing.
Thanks!

I believe its TMUS dataplanrequired. I don't understand why your signal is spotty and loss of signal. The more I mess with these settings I'm realizing that all this has done is create another option in the settings storage file where the other method of changing the tether fun required 1 to a 0 is. The other file I know have ,mind you im not sure how I got it, but I believe from testing one or several of the upsell URL options. That now has that tether dun required set at 0, not by me, and sticks through reboot. Here's a screenshot of said settings option that used to not be there. Let me know if this is just me or if others have noticed this now showing up.
Well actually I lost the pics when I flashed back to stock after a weekend long brick. But I managed to some how have screen shots saved to Dropbox of some build.props that I didn't notice before. The other settings option was seen thru sqlite editor when used to change that 1 to a 0 when I clicked on "settings storage" there used to be only one choice then a few days before I bricked and flashed back to stock I noticed another one called settings BCPM I think or something like that. It had all the same build.props in it except the tether fun required was defaulted to 0 already. Which kept me from having to set it or from going to the upsell URL again. The "BCPM" may not be the correct letters but it was something like that. Sorry for the delayed response also I've been bricked all weekend and trying to get it back lol

As soon as I hit the last # it instantly clears out the dialer box and nothing loads.
I am on Dynamic Kat 1.2. I wouldn't think that the ROM would prevent me from doing this.
When the last # is entered on stock it clears out as well, but then the service menu opens. Dialer codes might not work on that rom.

After doing this, I was unable to make a call, why is that? Do you know what the original setting was? I selected "LTE/WCDMA Auto" but I am not sure if that is correct.
I would go for lte/gsm/auto or wcdma/gsm auto
This way you always have chance for fallback to gsm when needed
