The Fix Checklist

1

Force 4G Only (Lock Band)

Use an app like 'Force LTE Only' to stop your phone from switching to 3G/H+.

2

Disable Background Data

Go to Settings > Apps. Restrict data for Instagram, TikTok, and Updates while gaming.

3

Airplane Mode Reset

Toggle Airplane mode ON for 10s, then OFF. This forces a fresh connection to the nearest tower.

4

Remove Case

Thick cases trap heat and block antenna signals. Let your phone breathe.
