So I have two phones the G2 & G3. I disconnected my G3 and I'm trying to connect my G2 now. But I'm getting difficulty in connecting the smart watch. Any ideas?

Well, it took me long enough to figure out that the Verizon S4 has its own completely separate set of subforums from the International and AT&T versions.... No wonder I got no responses to my post over there. So, I'm reposting it here:
From yesterday:
My brother and I both got S4s almost 2 weeks ago. He upgraded from an S3. Me from a Rezound. He also has a work phone that is a Verizon Note 2.
We were out at our parents' house over the weekend. Our dad has a RAZR Maxx and a 4G Verizon MiFi for his house. All 5 of these phones/devices are on Verizon.
Both of Dad's devices and my brother's Note 2 were maintaining a steady 4G LTE connection. The Note 2 only showed about 2 bars, but it held it steady and never dropped back to 3G at any time while we were there.
But, both my and my brother's S4s would not hold 4G. We played around with network settings. Changed them from CDMA/LTE to Global, and then back. They would both occasionally switch to 4G for a minute or so, then always switch back to 3G.
I called Verizon tech support and they walked us through things including turning off the phones, pulling the SIMs and letting him push a new PRL to us. Nothing helped, so he told us to go get new SIMs. I did that yesterday and went back out to my dad's and it's still the same. My dad's phone and his MiFi maintain a steady 4G LTE signal and my S4 mostly just stays on 3G.
I also noticed that I went to the movies yesterday and when I was in the theater lobby, which is right in the middle of town, where there is strong 4G signal, my phone had dropped back to 3G there, too.
I'm still within my 14 day return period and I am seriously thinking of returning the S4 and getting a Note 2.
Does anybody have any better suggestions?
*********** then, yesterday ***********
I found a thread on the AC forums where a guy reported the same issue I'm having. He took the SIM out of his Rezound, cut it down, plugged it in, and he said that fixed his 4G reception problem.
I'm going to VZW after work and trying a 3rd SIM. This time, one of the old style, that doesn't support NFC.
*********** then, today ***********
I went to Verizon after work yesterday and got a new non-NFC SIM. Then went back to my dad's house. The SIM does not appear to make any difference. My phone still wanted to switch to 3G and stay there.
But, I did figure out one encouraging thing. I used Battery Monitor Widget to get into the Testing screen. There, I was able to change the phone from "CDMA/LTE (Auto PRL)" to "LTE Only".
After doing that, the phone went into 4G mode and stayed there, and actually worked fine. I turned on my hotspot and connected to it with my tablet and surfed for a while, with no issues.
This tells me that the phone's LTE reception is pretty much just as good as the Note 2 and other devices I mentioned before. It's just a software issue that is switching it to 3G mode when it doesn't need to.
Hi guys, I haven't found a good method through my usual search methods, and I was wondering if anyone might know if this is possible. I want to be able to tether two android phones simultaneously to my laptop while traveling or at my siblings youth football games so I can still do my school work (I multitask). I want to do this for increased speeds so places I only have one or two bars it doesn't take five minutes just to load a single site. My laptop dualboots windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04. Also my phone (LGOG) is rooted with USB and wifi tethering already unlocked. The second phone will either be a HTC Evo 4G ( soon to be upgraded to the LTE version) or a friends phone that I can root if need be. Both on sprint. If this is possible either using wifi tethering, USB tethering, or a combination of both this will help me greatly. Thanks.

If you have found a way to do this, let me know. I've found next to nothing online about tethering two phones at once. Microsoft's Cool-Tether seems like a possibility but after it was announced back in 2009, it never really went anywhere.
I'm fairly new to messing about with my phones. I've only ever had pure Google devices up until this point. Now the crux of my current problem lies with the fact that the majority of my office building uses Verizon. So, while I get a solid 2-3 bars of LTE, actual use is basically impossible due to signal noise (-113db). With my previous phone I could force it into 3G abs I would get decent service. However the G3 does not have this option. Is there any way to accomplish this with the G3? I'm basically at my wit's end here.
Thanks,
Any luck?
I'm running into the same exact problem. Large office complex - everyone using Verizon. My phone just clocks when on 4G. Works great on 3G.
The Motorola Moto E 2015 4G LTE that I have has a weird issue, it will not allow me to use the internet on my home wifi at all. It will be connected but, no internet traffic is there. There are times wifi will work, but in 30 minutes, a little exclamation mark appears by the wifi symbol. My sister has the same phone as me and has no issues as well. She had gotten her phone about 2 months prior before I got mine. She has no issue using wifi on our home network. I have power cycled my router, updated my firm ware and reset it to no avail.
On a slightly unrelated note, my data does not work at all either 4G LTE, 3G or EDGE, none of it works. My sister on the other hand, has no issue at all.
The phones were purchased through the same company, they are the same color, (if you realy wanted to know) and they are about the same age, (mine is 5 months newer.) I got mine this January, she got her phone in September. It is running Android 5.1 and it is surnia not otus.
Please Help
I am using Cloudyg3 2.5 on Sprint LG G3 (LS990) everything is great but sometimes for a minute or two the cellphone drops the signal.Why is that!
I think LG G3 LS990(Sprint) has weak antenna i.e it cant support 4g ... so it is design for sprint network althoug i use it personly and work well but some time signal drops so i restart device and goes normal again ..
