LTE band selection - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way for an Xperia to show which LTE band it is currently connected to or even force select which LTE band to connect to?
Some phones from other manufacturers seem to have it under hidden menu but not the case for Sony

it should be in
*#*#INFO#*#*
OR
*#*#SERVICE#*#*
type this into your dialer
i forget which menu because i cant check becuase im not on a stock/stock based rom

[SOLVED] Stuck on 4g or 1x all the time?

Do all this steps.
1. I dial ##778#
2.tap edit mode
3.password. is 000000
4.tap on modem settings
5.tap Rev.A
6.Tap on enable
7.Tap on the menu on your phone
8.Tap on Commit modifications
And after you do that your phone should reboot and you should have 3g
THEN AFTER THE REBOOT
Dial *#*#4636#*#*
Okay now scroll to the bottom. the box should say "LTE MODE" I have no 4G service in my area. So I only got. 1x. I changed my radio settings to auto PRL. Its 3G only saves battery. And for. 3G and LTE
Is (CDMA+LTE/EvDo) then after just press the home button then. 1x will disappear then 3G will appear there you go. Ladies and gentlemen

How to change LTE band on Samsung S20/+/Ultra
Works on both chipsets.. I saw this tip on the board so I decided to make a clear instruction note on how to use it.
Download QuickShortCutMaker from the Play Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sika524.android.quickshortcut&hl=en
Run the app:
Go to Call Settings
Then select the LAST:
Call Screening option should right after Call Screen Emergency and one up CAMERA
Click on TRY
Click on Top left menu ≡
Select Band Selection
Take a screenshot to make sure you can come back to factory settings in case you have issues.
Pick the band or bands you want, toggle the SELECTION button on the right up corner.
Go back.
You are all set.
I suggest rebooting the phone but this is totally optional.

Reporting that it works
Thanks
Thanks a lot for a tip
After the last Android update I did app lost its permissions and I can no longer access the settings menu. Would appreciate it if anyone has any work around as I live on the US Mexico border and I cross everyday any now my data intermittently works because it's constantly switching bands.
