How do you change it back
Hola, he realizado dichas operaciones, finalmente he logrado tener todas las opciones de red disponible pero al habilitar LTE se me va la señal, quería saber si eso puede ser debido a que la frecuencia de navegación a Internet en mi país es de 1800 Mhz?? Por otro lado he aprendido mucho con este tutorial, gracias por todo y espero que me pueda responder.
