LG G4 - DATA WON'T WORK

[Meganmac812]

Hello everyone,

I registered on the network and followed all the APN settings and my data still isn't working. Everything else works. What can I do?

Have you done a factory reset?

Have you tried putting sim into another phone to isolate account vs hardware issue?

It is still not working and I have read a million threads lol this is getting bothersome.

This sounds like a network thing.  I just don't understand why carrier brands insist on putting customers through all sorts of hoops when switching carriers.  Even if the carriers want this feature included, refuse.  Apple is able to tell the carriers to buzz off.  Other manufactures should do the same.  The ultimate customer is the customer not the carriers.

@Meganmac812. Did you ever get your data to work?

This was the thread I was referring to

I checked them out.

Oooooh Tasker.... my favourite app. 🙂 That should do it, I would've mentioned it before but most people are not up to the, uh, task of learning it. Good on you!

Would either of these work for you? 

Silencer: Do Not Disturb app

(Got these from the OnePlus 5T forum from XDA: Scheduled Do Not Disturb )

FWIW, I started my PM service with a G4 and never had any problems. Plugged in the SIM and off it went. Then again, it was the European mode (H815).

Moved away from it when I realized that LG was going to stop doing software updates less than two years after release. I really liked the phone, one of the last flagships with a removable battery. Especially nice was the leather back. But it had reliability problems and I couldn't trust it for my daily phone. Replaced it with a Oneplus 5T (the guy in the Koodo store had never even heard of oneplus) and (with one exeption*) am very happy.

* I like having a hardware switch to turn off the ringer, but I really dislike that in return I can't schedule Do Not Diturb overnight.

Do a network settings reset and if that doesn't work factory reset.

It's a known lg bug

For a good readon this topic search for *term* and PM-GUIDE (remove "-" during the search) and replace *term* with apn
