Connect to 4G networks
If your phone has the ability to connect to 4G networks, you may have to configure it
to connect to them.
1 Press Home , press Menu , and touch Settings to open the Settings
application.
2 Touch Wireless & networks > 4G settings.
3 Check 4G.
The 4G setting also displays the current status of the 4G connection (connecting,
connected, and so on).
You can check Network notification to receive a notification whenever your
phone connects to or disconnects from a 4G network.
You can touch a 4G network in the list to learn more about the connection.
If you’re carrier uses a WiMAX-based 4G network, the 4G Status bar icon indicates
whether you’re connected to a 4G network, the strength of the signal, and whether
your connection is idle (that is, whether you’re currently sending or receiving data).
Determine what GSM network you’re using
1 Press Home , press Menu , and touch Settings to open the Settings
application.
2 Touch Wireless & networks > Mobile networks > Access Point Names.
The name of the wireless service provider you’re currently registered with is
selected in the list.
Disable data when roaming
You can prevent your phone from transmitting data over other carriers’ mobile
networks when you leave an area that is covered by your carrier’s networks. This is
useful for controlling expenses if your cell plan doesn’t include data roaming.
