LG Signal Booster Guide

Solve common LG Cell Phone Signal issues with a weBoost or Wilson Cell Phone Signal Booster for LG phones.

LG is one of the more popular brands among cell phones. With devices being offered by top networks as well as being provided for monthly pre-paid cell phone carriers (such as smart talk), LG's user base has boomed. Unfortunately, a great deal of the LG phones have a common problem with cell phone reception. This is not to say that the phone is substandard or that it is poorly manufactured, but that due to the popularity of the phone the network becomes cluttered and the amount of simultaneous users trying to access the network causes weakened and/or dropped signals. Using a LG cell phone booster may be one way in which to increase your phone’s signal strength. The following booster kits will also boost coverage for cell phones by other manufacturers and cell service providers. That means that your friends, co-workers or family members who have cell phone made by another manufacturer and cellular service with any other wireless carrier in USA or Canada, can also benefit from the boosted signal when they visit your home or travel with you in your vehicle.

BOOSTER MODEL	DESCRIPTION	MSRP	DB GAIN? What is dB Gain? Signal strength is measured in decibels (dB). Theoretically, -50 dB represents peak signal strength (5 signal bars), whereas -110 dB implies practically zero signal on your LG. Therefore, this means that signal strength reduces, as this number goes further away from zero (a higher negative number is further away from zero than a lower negative number). The number shown in this column indicates amount of potential improvement of your LG signal strength. As you can see, all of them provide a drastic improvement in LG reception signal strength.

What does a LG cell phone signal booster do?

The LG cell phone signal booster is designed to meet the needs of specified LG phones. The booster scans the area for weak signals and combines those weak signals to the strongest signal that it can find to produce an optimized signal. This signal then allows the LG phone to have eliminated dropped calls, can increase the bars of the phone up to double what was previously accessible by the phone, increase the clarity of the communications between the phone user and other cell phone users, maximize the download speeds of signal based internet, and in some cases optimize the battery life to allow for up to 2 hours of use than normal.

The four parts of LG cell phone booster.

Cell phone boosters consist of four main parts. These parts are the booster which is the physical hardware that takes the weak signal and couples it with a strong signal to maximize the strength of your phone's signal. The second part is an antenna which relates the signal to the phone. Sometimes the booster and the antenna are in the same unit, but this is rare. Third is the power supply. Typically, the power source can be plugged into a standard outlet. It is advised that a dedicated outlet and a surge protector be used. On mobile cell phone signal boosters, a cigarette adapter or a USB port adapter may be available for the main power. Finally, the coax cable component will be present for a cell phone booster.

Which LG model will work with these cell phone signal boosters?

While there are several companies that offer an umbrella-like booster, these typically fall short on providing a cellphone booster for the LG phones which meet the FCC and the network service providers requirements for a cell phone booster. Our boosters work perfectly well with all LG models including the following:

• Cosmos 2
• Cosmos 3
• Enacta
• Enlighten
• Extravert
• Extravert 2
• LG G2
• LG G3
• LG G4
• LG G Vista
• Intuition
• Lancet
• Lucid
• Lucid 2
• Lucid 3
• Optimus Exceed
• Revere
• Revere 2
• Revere 3
• Revolution
• Spectrum
• LG Terra

Do not opt for a different brand than weBoost or Wilson Electronics just because you do not see your phone on the list above. A generic brand can cause damage to both your phone and the network (including 911 services). Unregistered products which cause damage to the network, tower, or public services may be subject to fines and repair fees.

Apart from generic models, cell phone users should not attempt to "make" their own cell phone signal booster. There are a great many sites that claim that you can do so legally. However, as the FCC requires that you register the product and the manufacturer, unless you are a licenses cell phone signal manufacturer then the making of such a device would be outside of these regulations.

How can I determine if I need a LG Cell Phone Signal Booster?

To determine if your phone or if the signal is problematic, perform the basic troubleshooting practices and procedures recommended by LG and LG's forum platform. Once you have determined that the phone is not the issue, try these steps to see if you can increase your signal:

• Check to see if you get a signal outside of the building – In many cases, the building may be causing the weakened signal. This can be the result of the construction of the building (for example concrete and steel) or it could be the result of too many obstructions within the interior space. If you find that your signal increases on the exterior of the building, try to get as close to that spot on the interior of your building and note if the signal strength increases.

• Check for man-made and natural obstructions which could weaken the signal. – In urban environments, other buildings, radio towers/stations, can cause a weak signal. In rural areas trees can cause signal disturbance. If possible try to find another location (possibly the other side of the building) which does not have the blockage and note if the signal strength is increased.

• Check your proximity to your network’s tower - The tower’s proximity to your access point is vital to the strength of the signal. The further out that you are the weaker your signal will be. It may also be the case that you are on the very edge of your tower’s radius and that the weak signal is a result of not being, technically, within the network coverage area. A signal booster would be an extremely beneficial tool in this instance as it would be able to take the nearby signals and maximize them for your usage.

• Is your signal getting weaker in your vehicle and stronger outside of it? – Where we embrace the new technologies and the LTE capabilities of the modern vehicle, these advances can hinder your LG phone’s cell phone signal strength. Features such as the GPS navigation, emergency assistance, and the soundproofing of the vehicle may cause you to have a weak signal. In such a case a mobile cell phone booster may be needed.

• Check for cross signal interference – Existing boosters and antennas can cause cross frequency weaknesses and dropped signals. If possible, temporarily disable these devices to see if the signal strength is increase. If it increases, adjust the device so that the signal does not interfere with your cell phone or upgrade the existing cell phone booster to include your model.

Determine the type of LG cell phone signal booster that you need

Cell phone signal boosters work in essentially the same way. However, there are a few differences in how the signal is boosted depending upon your needs. Primarily there are three ways in which a signal will be used. These are personally, commercially, or mobility. Commercial level products are intended for spaces that exceed 50,000 sq. ft such as arenas or large warehouses. Products which cater to the professional building must be installed by a FCC licensed professional. Personal desktop devices are the most common form of a cell phone booster and can be used in personal homes as well as offices. The benefit of using a desktop LG Cellphone signal booster in an office is that various models of LG can access the network. You are not limited to just boosting the LG G3 phone. Any LG compatible phone can use the booster.

Mobile functionality will require a magnetic or a bolt mount antenna. When a mobile option is desired, the type of vehicle needs to be addressed ATVs and RVs sometimes have specific boosters. If you are using the booster in a company car, it is advised that you use the magnetic mount. Those which are leasing a vehicle should check to see what possible effects a booster could have to the vehicle before purchasing the booster.

What are the limitations of an LG Cell Phone Signal Booster?

Cell phone signal boosters are intended as a tool to help maximize the signal strength on your phone. A signal booster can eliminate dropped calls, increase the voice communication functionality of your phone, increase download speeds, and optimize your battery for up to 2 hours of more usage. However, there are limitations to what your cell phone signal booster can do. A cell phone signal booster cannot:

• Hack a network.

• Act as a substitute for a network subscription.

• Bypass the restrictions and permissions needed to access a tower.

• Split your subscription to another person.

• Increase your data plan. Where it does optimize your phone for better usage you will still need to keep up with your data plan.

• Extend your home wi-fi connection. Cell phone signal boosters can increase the speed of mobile signal based internet. However, if you need wi-fi boosters, it is advised that you seek out a wi-fi booster specific to your brand and your needs.
