Unlocked V30+, triangle in status bar - LG V30 Questions & Answers

Hey all, just inserted my existing Verizon sim into a new V30+ and everything seems to be working correctly. However, I've got a triangle in the notification bar and not sure what it means. I'm thinking maybe roaming? I didn't have a roaming signal in my current location on my Nexus 6 though. Any ideas?

Screenshot? Usually a triangle of the very left notification bar means a recent Google Play store app update.

I have the same thing on the same phone on the same carrier.
Don't know why I'd be roaming. I have a 4G access point in my house.

Yep, I think it's because technically the phone isn't activated on Verizon. I just went into my account and it does not show as activated, when I try to activate it it says this phone is not compatible with VZ's network .. I'm guessing I can probably call in and get them to add it, have you already done that?

Huh, mine says Roaming but shows LTE and 1x. I'm wondering if the 1xRTT is causing it, it says it's network extended so I'm assuming being on 2.5g may count as roaming. Once I leave my house tomorrow I'm going to keep an eye on it and see what happens. Still haven't been able to get HD Voice but VZW support said they're opening a ticket to get it added to my phone.

Can confirm, out of my house my roaming triangle goes away. Looks like because I'm on 1x in my house it brings up the roaming icon even though I still have access to lte.

Not sure why you are posting in this thread. This thread is about US998 V30+ on Verizon network showing roaming indicator...
Advice? Yes. Stay away from Sprint phones unless you are a Sprint customer. Even then NEVER buy them on eBay.

They need to update your imei number on your account to your new device, and also change to the lte data plan. I've been trying since earlier and theyre systems are down for this as they are updating. I've been stuck on wifi all day. You can try , dial 611.

They asked me what kind of SIM I had and I told them I had a 3G SIM so he told me he would have to give me a new SIM for the LTE and he did. The SIM is orage with a globe on it, and the top half is white with a long number on it.
He did call and I physically heard him give her my phones IMEI number however something could have gotten ****ed up because they made me buy a 2nd SIM for my other line because I was "cross upgrading" by upgrading MY phone by using an upgrade that was on another line. However, he sounded like he knew his stuff and since I heard him give her the IMEI number I cant imagine how things got twisted up.
And yes it would be nice to be able to login to ATT or call tech support to check but there isnt a damn thing I can do when the website is down and its after tech support hours.

You may be right, but what i dont understand is the dude asked me if it was a 3G SIM and when I said it was he busted out a brand new one for me. My old one has 3G right on the front, the new one does not resemble it.
Also when I did a google image search I found a lot of LTE SIM cards that look exactly like the one I have. However I did see a couple that were all a solid orange like the one you described but there was info to suggest my card was the incorrect one.

Need help only getting EDGE network????

Well I have a Samsung Note on Straight talk and I am only getting EDGE network its a AT&T Sims for Straight talk not the tmobile. My wife has a LG Thrill and its running Straight talk and always has H+ 3 to 4 bars all day. I took the Sims card out of the Samsung note and put it in the LG Thrill and got H+ with no problems. I did drive around town and got 4g anywhere from 2-4 bars but when I got home it went back to EDGE!! I notice in some areas was on EDGE when it should been on H+. I have tried different apns and get the same results. Is there any service code I should be looking at??? If so how do I do that? Where else should I be looking?? Thanks Bud-sc
Straight Talk uses AT&T network so you should get 3G. I also read about a fix to get 4G I'd you're in a 4G area.
But you said you tried several APN's and nothing improved. What modem are you using (settings>about phone>base and)?
Also, check this setting:

You probably used more than 2GB of data in a month or used more than 100MB/day. Your probably being throttled by ST. Might give them a call and if my assumption is correct, act innocent.
Good point. Even the $45 unlimited plan gets throttled at 2 gigs. But it sounds like he never got 3/4G yet.

All go on everything and I only had this new Sims card for 3 days so using to data might out. OK my baseband is T989UVKL1 and here is my zip code 29582. Thanks Bud-sc
That looks like the stock modem. Did you root? I'm guessing yes because you said you changed your APN.
If I were you I would flash the UCLE5 modem from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27863509
Why? It sounds like a reception or antenna problem. So changing modems could improve your reception.
But you need CWM recovery installed to do that.
No the phone is not rooted.I just only change the apn that Straight talk give me then after that I tried a few other apn settings to see if I get different results but no luck yet.I am not going to give up yet but this phone is suppose to get ics this July so maybe then the new fireware might make things better. I hope so. Thanks Bud-sc
Is your phone the at&t or international version? Did you unlock the phone to put in the ST sim card?
ICS is out now. The modem I suggest is the current ics modem.

That's your problem right there sir. Thats a Tmobile Baseband. All you need to do is dial *#2263# and select GSM Bands then select all...and bam you should have 4G or H+ in no time.
another solution is to flash any AT&T Baseband/Radio. But that would require flashing CWM thru ODIN. But no root required for that.
Its the att and yes its unlocked. I checked the update last night nothing yet. Is there away to check the update with out the time limit?? Is there a stock firmware on Samsung web site for At&t??? Thanks Budsc

dude did you see my reply? The T989 Baseband is specific to the Tmobile's Galaxy S2.
And the stock AT&T Radio can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1506212
Just flash thru ODIN.
If your phone has at&t logo but has a T-Mobile modem (as the baseband suggests) someone has already flashed a different modem.
Do you know about CWM or Odin? In other words, what is your skill level for solving this problem?
My skill on something like this little afraid too be truthful. Thanks Bud-sc
OK what do I need to download to my computer and how do I do this??MY phone does not or does it need to be rooted???
try disabling mobile data?
Does your phone have the AT&T logo at the top?
You don't need root access to flash a modem.
Are you chatting with me from your phone or a PC? Why? Because you will have to perform the next steps from a PC.

First things of, download drivers for your phone. Enable USB debugging in settings. Then download latest ODIN (i believe its v1.85 or something), then download the http://m-s-j.net/dagnarf/phone-odin-att-stock-radio.tar.

Are you still doing this? and if so what APN settings are you using now?

SIM unlocked for VZW S4

To clarify as I am sure this question will get asked.
The VZW S4 is already unlocked for other SIMs (T-mobile verified - like the VZW GN2.
I haven't checked the Add APNs section under mobile network settings but assume it is there and working as it now does on the VZW GN2.
EDIT:
To access the Add APN menu you must have a SIM other than VZW in your phone.
Thanks astralentity for confirming.

New here, but I've been following the site for almost 3 years now.
I got my S4 yesterday, and I can confirm that with my AT&T microsim for GoPhone service, I was able to get HSPA+ without any software or hardware modifications. When you have a different SIM in your phone, you can add APN information. After I added the wap.cingular info, HSPA became HSPAP in the Status menu, and I had H+ on the notification bar.
I have no money in the GoPhone account right now, so I was unable to test the speeds on HSPA+. Verizon is still my primary service, the GoPhone is my emergency backup.
Hope this helps everyone! I can provide screenshots after when I get home and able to pop in the AT&T SIM.

I did not need root to add APN info. You should be good to go with international SIMs, since HSPA is available on all bands with this phone, with the possible exception of 1700.
What about that World Data plan that the verizon customer service been telling me all the time when I asked them if the phone would work outside US.
P.S. I'm aslo talking about a 200$ on contract version
FInally the thread I was looking for, i for one would like to see this thread keep active as I am thinking of purchasing a verizon S4 and want to know what prepaid and mvno options I have for it as well as what speeds. Sofar I see gophone im curious how it will work on tmobile and simple.

The verizon version does not support the 1700 band (according to the Verizon website), so you would need to be in an area that has been upgraded to the 1900 band of hspa+.
Here's the info straight from Verizon;
Network
Network: LTE, CDMA/1xEVDO Rev. A (800/1900 MHz)
Global Network: EDGE/GSM (850/900/1800/1900), HSPA/UMTS(850/900/1900/2100)
Hi all
I have a quick question under your APNs are you only seeing one line "Verizon LTE" as the only access point? I was messing around with my apns-conf file and I wanted to make sure I restored the right one. Does your screen look like this with a Verizon sim inside?

Not necessarily.. phone such as the D801 for Wind Mobile in Canada, has LTE disabled by the carrier and needs to be enabled manually. This is mainly because Wind does not have a LTE network and so if you have a non Wind LTE SIM you will need to unlock the LTE option in order to use the LTE network or be stuck with 4G speeds.
What is the method to enable it permanently with root?

you dont want to permanent enable LTE because then voice would not work maybe sending SMS would be a problem too, this is the case for T-mobile and I imagine the same for ATT, verizon and sprint uses CDMA technology so it may be different, but if you insist on doing it, follow op guide and check LTE only...
Indian Model also has LTE disabled, but this should enable it. Only problemwe do nt have LTE in the country anyway
I guess it will help me when i am travelling to Europe next.

Sorry i should have expressed more clearly what i meaned! I am looking for a solution that once i set it to GSM / WCDMA / LTE auto, this setting survives a reboot.
Untill now i have to set the optinion after every reboot again
Unfortunately this solution not run for me, I must activate it manually with an app.

I have a d80210a_EURO_xxx and when I try to click the LTE=only it says not supported. I am using Telia.Dk service but the phone was bought unlocked from another non-Telia vendor.

No it doesn't but I would figure it would allow me to switch it to being open. The phone was bought unlocked from a 3rd party 3 vendor which I know have LTE. Maybe it is because my Sim doesn't support it?
i have same issue with my G2 unlocked EU Version. My others Devices (Xperia Z1, HTC One, Samsung S4) have i no Problem with LTE and Sim.
I think, it's a Firmwareprobllem.

i think, it a Issue from Firmware.
Under Android Test Menu (*#*#4636#*#*) can you LTE enable and it works but to next Reboot it is no longer active. I have testing with this Setting and LTE work without Problems.
I hope, you understand my english

I think you hit the nail on the head, I pulled a complete blonde moment. Just checked the networks settings under mobile network and it's already set to LTE/GSM/WCDMA. My apologies for the run around.:silly:

[Q] Can I Flash an AT&T Rom to Get LTE?

Newbie here.....
I have a Verizon LG G3 that I am using with AT&T.
It works well but a couple of issues I'd like to address.
1) I only get H+ and would like to get LTE
2) I am having issues with sending & receiving mms messages where the pictures wont send if I'm on WiFi but send fine when I'm on the data network.
Is there any way to correct/ improve these issues?
Can I flash the stock AT&T rom on the Verizon phone and would it work?
Any help and/ or enlightenment is greatly appreciated.

oh you never flash att&t rom to this phone....and software wouldn't solve ur issue....you only get band 4 lte if im correct...and you never ever flash any rom other than a "vs985"
also..mms has to do with apn settings...
Thanks for the info.
Do you know if the Verizon version has all the LTE bands as the AT&T version but just has them locked or deactivated somehow?
Is there any way to get LTE working for AT&T on the Verizon version?

I have the correct ATT apns and when I receive a MMS I have to turn off WiFi in order to download the picture. It has something to do with the phone
You will get LTE off AT&T (and T-Mobile) if they are using Band4 in your current area. In some areas they use a different band, maybe band 21 - I can't remember offhand. Our VS985 cannot use band21, it uses band 4 and band 13 for LTE though.
It has been figured out that it is also possible to enable Band3 LTE on the VS985, but that is only going to help in other countries, particularly France.

I recently went through this. I was assured from att that I would get lte. Well, after days of trouble shooting with att and trying different hacks I could only get h+
I even went right next to a strong att tower area and still could not. For mms the only way I could get it to work was by using textra, which had a fix for mms by turning off wifi.
What I have learned is that there are some att bands that are locked out in the Verizon phone. There was an xda post that almost had it figured out but nobody could get it working.
H+ is pretty fast by the way, but I was unsatisfied so I am back on Verizon.
And also, do not ever flash anything other than a Verizon rom and radio.

I would message @autoprime about this. He was recently working on unifying all G3 variants' modems since they all use the same radio with different bands unlocked. He may have a method to unlock the bands you need.

Did you make sure Band 4 was supported in your area? I know that's the only LTE band that is supported by the Verizon G3 variant.
The VErizon version uses only the Verizon modem (radio) firmware. It does not and cannot enable the ATT LTE bands.. Just so happens that one band is the same. For the rest you are out of luck. Read this for more information.
