Thanks for confirming.  I have a flashable ZVD modem zip but wasn't sure if I should post it.

 

Thing is, the filesize is different than ZVC, whether it's a separate partition changed or what.  The baseband is the same number.

 

I wonder why LG didn't release the OTA with an updated baseband?

To the people reporting poor Band 25 reception.   Did you enable Band 26 and Band 41?   Maybe Sprint was already ahead of you on this and you actually are causing the problem?   Maybe they made

According to this:   http://device.sprintpcs.com/LG/LS980-SPRINT/latest   Sprint is currently testing KitKat 4.4.2...(LS980ZVB) as well as a new Modem baseband:   (M8974AAAAANLYD1311)     ...

What's even more curious is that the Sprint Zone app is telling me that I need to "Update Now" even though it shows the current ZVD build number. Wonder if that has to do with the incorrect baseband.

Have you ever rooted before? I wonder if it's not installing if you have a previous record of root installed.

There is an update for Sprint Zone, the app.

I tot'd back to ZVC and took OTA and before even rooting I had the ZVC baseband or the ZVD baseband with the same number as ZVC.  If you're going all in, might want to try ZV8. lol

So, as to not quote myself.. Lol

 

I ran the ZV7 tot and can confirm there was no baseband change from ZV7 to ZV8, it changed from ZV8 to ZVA as well as from ZVA to ZVC but did not from ZVC to ZVD.

So then is there really an issue when people are saying that they are getting stuck on 3G and it not switching back over to LTE?

I'll leave that to someone that is on ZVD to answer. I just did that experiment to see about baseband. I'm on ZVC as we released our finished rom tonight. I'll probably move to ZVD later this week.

Unfortunately the issue is real. I switched to LTE/CDMA for my network mode and that seemed to help a bit but still not back to what it used to be before the update. It almost seems like they messed with the priority and have the phone connect to and stay on 3G if its any amount of a stronger signal than LTE.

Agreed, after the update I'm not connecting to LTE as well as before. This and not getting Wifi Calling are very disappointing. I haven't changed the timing in the LTE menu as another user in the thread did yet. Supposedly that helps

I tried setting the LTE timing as well and didn't help me. I'm almost wondering if a factory reset is in order.

If you can wait, don't factory reset.  My G2 is out for GPS service.  I wiped the phone before I sent it in.  When I get it back I am going to do a fresh install of everything.  I can let you know if the problem still exists, if you can wait that long.

I can wait and thanks for the heads up.

My HTC resized and spaced words so that all the words would fit and all I would have to do is scroll down. Does the G2 do the same?

Are you talking about text in a browser? I use Chrome and it spaces text just fine and that is not phone specific.

Anyone that calls me while I'm connected to LTE (band 25 is the only one up on my area). It rings once on their end and then forwards them to my voicemail. Never ever get an indication of having received a call on my end unless they leave a voicemail. Then I get a random vm icon with no explanation.

 

Any ideas as to why this is happening?

 

I just got the phone back yesterday. LG replaced the board chipset because when I received calls the phone would ignore my attempts to answer it. Outgoing was fine, incoming couldn't be answered.

      Roaming experience in Japan

      By cooltech6597 · Posted

      In China now and roaming on China Mobile with Google Fi/TMUS. 5G is enabled on roaming, however most areas in China have NSA disabled on the network. so SA is the only way to get 5G. This is only possible using a native SIM from the Chinese carriers. Also, LTE CA is disabled on basically every site, except for a few I've come across while on the bullet train.   I'm lucky enough to be in a small town where NSA is still enabled on China mobile, so I'm able to have a decent experience while roaming. Haven't speedtested much but it seems to top out at 300mbps over roaming on b3 + n41 100mhz. The networks here are dense AF and every site seems to have midband 5G deployed. Also, interesting to see that most sites have antennas branded by the carrier, or painted a certain color (which I haven't figured out what that means yet).

      My S21FE, which is my primary phone, has burned in quite a bit from SCP.  Not sure I could get a good picture of it, so I won't try.  Helpfully, since SCP allows full customization of app colors, I'm going to see if I can't undo it a bit by flipping the colors. https://imgur.com/a/QQr5Ncv We'll see how long my eyes tolerate the change... - Trip
