Just a quick tip on getting 4G to come on faster when toggling 3G/4G.

When I use the 3G/4G toggle, it sometimes takes several minutes (>10) for the phone to switch to 4G. I realized that if you go into the network settings and select LTE only, it will immediately switch to 4G. You can then switch to LTE + CMDA/EvDo auto.

If this wasn't obvious to you, I hope it helps.

I bet you'll have better luck with a different radio. It's not the case for all of us but most of us get nearly-instant 4G when booting up with the proper radio. However, "the proper radio" is different for many of us, so you'll have to find yours by yourself.

I should have been more clear. I manually keep my phone in 3g for battery life. I toggle to 4g when streaming video or downloads. Sometimes it takes 10+ minutes for it to switch from 3g to 4g. Forcing LTE only mode makes it immediately switch to 4g. I have no issues on booting to 4g.

Oh, I see. NVM my post then.

Thanks for trying to help, though.

Still may want to try another radio. I am on the 802 radio and i get instant 4g when switching from 3g. Takes maybe 10 seconds to switch back to 3g though.

Are you using CM?

I'm on CM7 with OTA MR2 and stay on 3G and when I toggle to 3G/4G its also fast as heck.
