I'm having a similar issue with my Lg Optimus G LS 970 (Sprint) Flashed to Cricket. 3G Does not automatically come on and off. What I have to do is turn off and on the wi-fi multiple times in a row. then the 3G pops on. My data is very slow under 50K down and the 3g times out within 3 to 4 minutes. I tried at different locations around my city. I feel like i'm so close like one setting off.

I have tried re flashing the internet settings with multiple programs, tried simple and mobile ip, I almost think its a setting in the phone. What could be causing the phone not to automatically connect to 3g mobile data? Also why when it does connect the speeds are slow and the connection times out so fast?

This phone is awesome but not having reliable data out and about is killing me.


Oh more thing is it possible to configure the LTE radio on the phone now for when cricket brings LTE to the Portland Market?

Any body have any ideas?

you need to turn on admin data,it is in a hidden menu we generally use an apk to get there,but you can use the shell command to do it also and lte needs to be off.as far as getting cricket lte on it,who knows maybe - maybe not,since crickets lte is far from a reality your grandkids may get to test it for you,but the rest of us will have gigabit speeds on our devices by then,lol.

Is the hidden Menu located in one of these codes below? I cannot find any info on a "Admin Data" or how to change any values. I tried the hidden menu code but there are many options after that and I didnt wanna brink anything.


From a different site:
Dialer codes for the Sprint Optimus G. Dialer codes are entered on your phone's dialer screen. As usual, don't mess with this stuff if you don't know what you are doing. I am not responsible for anyone ruining their device.
