Verizon Wireless has tweaked all LG phones and disabled various features out of sheer corporate greed. It is sad that such a good productive company resorts to such juvenile behavior in order to increase revenue. 
On the bright side, there are a few ways to circumvent such nonsense. Your best bet is to skim around http://www.howardforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=33 for information, tips, and tricks.

Improve Reception (LG) -Verizon-
( * 2 2 8 ) Option 1, works only to activate (program) the phone after establishing an account for service with verizon.
( * 2 2 8 ) Option 2 is to update your Preferred Roaming List (PRL) that lets your phone receive signal from antennas that are being put up all the time.
