I have a question, for those of you with the Verizon Wireless LG G4 VS986, is the current network being used actually on the screen somewhere since I don't have it on mines and I can't find the setting to turn it on or off. Thanks!
 
No, I mean usually on phones in general, it will show the name of the network such as "Verizon Wireless" on the top bar somewhere except I don't see it on the LG G4 anywhere. 2G, 3G and 4G is the current type of network it's connected to.
 
My ATT branded LG G4 does show "AT&T" in the upper left of the notification bar when it is connected to the ATT network. (For example, it goes away when airplane mode is turned on.)
 
If I remember right, it only shows Verizon wireless in the upper left corner right after Android loads after a restart, and only for a few seconds.
 
It is supposed to show it on the lock screen along with my contact info but for some reason, I no longer have either of those two. I looked at the screenshots online and it seems like the Verizon version of the G4 doesn't have the network name at all.
