Network Selection Overview

Manual network selection allows you to choose a specific mobile network operator (e.g., AT&T) instead of relying on automatic selection. This is beneficial in areas with weak signals, during roaming, or to avoid unwanted network connections.

Manual Mode	User selects a specific network from available options

Accessing Network Settings

To access network selection settings on your LG G2:

From the Home screen, tap Apps > Settings.
Scroll to and tap Networks or More Networks.

Manual Network Selection Steps

Follow these steps to manually select AT&T or another network:

Go to Settings > Networks > Mobile Networks.

Wait for the phone to scan and display available networks.
