I want to show the network signal strength in my app. I am using LTE network for transmitting data and want to show any real time variations in network strength. I was able to get the GSM signal strength but how can I get the same for LTE?

mCid = gmsCellLocation.getCid() & 0xffff;
mLac = gmsCellLocation.getLac();

and is there any library or formula how to get/calculate the correct LAC and cell id for LTE network (4G) ?

I live in a remote location with awful reception, and a friend suggested I should get a signal booster. I can connect to LTE if I force it in my phone's Hidden Menu (LG G5) but it functions basically at the same speed as HSPA, however when I visit a big city the 4G connection kicks in on its own and at very high speeds.

I found out that my phone carrier is using Band 3 for LTE which should mean that I need a 1800 Mhz signal booster which I found on ebay, but I'd really appreciate it if someone who actually knows this stuff could take a look and say if I'm right in my choice of this signal booster.

Included are screenshots of my Phone's LTE connection details as well as the item page of the signal booster I found.

I working on a project which needs adding a service with JNI to the system server and also a new daemon in init.rc script. I have successfully done this.
I might need the system service to periodically send SIGUSR1/2 signals to the daemon. Linux requires a sender of signals to be root. Do I have this privilege inside system server in Android?
