      option. You need to force your network to respective network via

      Some manufacturers disabled this option in their phones. But still you can force the network trough settings -> Network & Internet -> Mobile Network -> Advance (Preferred Network Type to 4G).

      Samsung phones did not enabled phone information. In such phones, only option you have is go to settings - connection - more networks - mobile networks - network mode - WCDMA only for 3G , LTE only for 4G.

      Some phones disabled this option. In that case you can find a setting to force your phone to 4G/LTE under network settings.

      Papa Bear: It will not do any damage to your phone. It just looks always for 4G /LTE/3G based on the setting you choosing. It’s make to your default one if you move to another tower.
