This is what we are worry if we do some root at this phone, because some wrong steps can delete important system files and can not boot properly again. Unfortunately we can not give good answer for non standard tweak, maybe someone else can give good answer. The other alternative is try to browse at XDA Developer community, maybe they can give solutions. Otherwise, please contact LG authorize service center.

    • Hi, LG L80 have 3G GSM connection if your provider network support for that. Please try to do hard reset first and your LG L80 will restart to factory default including 3G setting will be preferred. IF still not work, you can try to use different simcard which already run 3G at other smartphone. If it work, then maybe your simcard have trouble and need to replace, please consult with your network provider office.
