i upgraded rom and radio (dcd 2.2 and 3.16 radio). everything works fine except my data connection. it says sprint (dial up) is connected but sprint pcs doesn't connect. any help would be greatly appreciated.
Can you make calls? Can you send txts?
try a restart and load up google.com if it doesnt work then i recomend a hard reset
if you cant make calls check your msid
yes i can make calls and send texts. the internet connects just not on sprint pcs network. it is some sprint (dial up) network and it is super slow.
Sounds like IWF
Greetings,
Sounds like he is making an old style CDMA data call that is what we used before 1xRTT or EVDO, and it is still supported so probably falling back to it because his settings for 1x are not right, but since his phone is ok he can make the old style calls. Make sure that your data call is dialing #777.
it tries to dial 777, but then connects to the sprint dial up
honestly i would call sprint and see if they could update your prl
either that or drive to a area that has evdo and try it there

Yep, thats most likely the issue... something isnt authenticating for data correctly.
i updated prl to 60611, ran iota and still same thing. i can connect to internet but it is really slow, says im connected to sprint(dialup) but not sprint pcs.
I just got the data plan, finally, and I am one of the many noobs that didn't read any instructions and went ahead and flashed without writing down all that useful EPST info. I have gotten "a" data connection, but it seems to be terrible, and I know it supposed to be much better.
My question is, is there any difference in a "dial-up" connection and a higher speed connection in terms of icons. It shows that I am in an EVDO coverage area, but under connections it shows a dial up connection.
I never used the data on the mogul before, so I'm not sure if I need to call Sprint Customer Service, or just deal with their crappy data in my area.
Thanks for the help
You should have an "Ev" icon at the top somewhere as far as I know.
Telling us what ROM and radio you flashed might help us help you.
Make sure it still says EV at the top when you are online, if the EV changes to a 1X then something is wrong with your configuration.

sorry, i'm running reloaded 4, which i believe is dcd 3.2.6 with the touchFlo 2D.
sorry, i'm running reloaded 4, which i believe is dcd 3.2.6 with the touchFlo 2D. I have the EV symbol, i just wanted to know if it should say I have a dial up connection as well whenever I'm using data or if that is the wrong one.
thanks for your help

Did you install the carrier cab? If not, it would make your data connection not work.
EVDO dials up just like 1X, it is just able to connect at a faster speed.

yeah i installed the newest one, august 08 i believe, and got EPST to work so I could make changes, and i get a data connection, its just terrible.
well i took it to a sprint guy i know, and he had a tech look at it. the verdict he had was that my "downloaded software" was causing it to slow down. i just laughed and said thanks. his idea of downloaded software was my ROM, and i cannot believe that dcd has created a ROM that slows down internet connections.
any ideas?
Edit:
eek, double post
i did the same thing.. flashed without writing down the EvDo password (known as the HDR AN AUTH LONG password in EPST.
The method to extract your EvDo password is to use CDMA Workshop to do a memory dump and then use a Hex Editor to read the data and obtain a 16 digit hex number which is your EvDo password..
Havent been able to figure this out.. Some programs already have a built in EvDo password reader..
Good luck if you can suss this one out!
1X is approx 150 kB/s download speed
EvDo is around 1500 kB/s download speed
(New Zealand) I'm not sure if it's the same in your area/country

I saw that the HDR AN AUTH LONG was all gibberish in the settings, and I was curious if that was supposed to be something. Does anyone know if that's something that Sprint should be able to give me, or am I going to have to just wait and have an "accident" with this phone?
No idea, I get about 100-300kbps over EVDO though.
evdo
you could try running your carrier cab again (after deleting the existing modem connection for data). Verify that it is not weak signal by going somewhere with a known good evdo signal
Just curious... I have the Ev for data... but when I place a call, it changes to 1X.. Is this normal?

Yes. Just FYI the Data will not work while you are in a call unless you have WiFi turned on.
well, because its useful to others who might be in the same boat, I will continue replying, but I figure out another way to get data, and that was to get sprint to change my mogul into a touch pro...
I have run the carrier cab a couple of times now, and its verified that i have the crappy data, but i can't figure out how to get the HDR AN PASSWORD (Long) other than to do a dump, and i don't think i'm gonna go thru that trouble since i send the thing back tomorrow.

I have the same thing happen to me always, I will have full bars in EV, but when I make a call, it switches to 1X. This is the same for data.

The Ev means that youre in an area that has EvDo mobile broadband capability. When you make a phone call, that will always change to 1X because phone calls run via the 1XRTT network.
When you connect to the net, your phone will try firstly to connect to the EvDo mobile broadband network but because you dont have the correct EvDo password (HDR AN AUTH LONG password) it will instead drop down to the 1XRTT network.
I ended up getting a second hand Titan and made sure i wrote down the EvDo password before upgrading and flashing. So now when i hit the net, it doesnt go to 1X. The Ev icon stays the same which verifies that im on the EvDo broadband network instead of the 1XRTT network.
While connected to the EvDo mobile broadband network, you can still receive calls, texts. On the 1xRTT mobile broadband network, you wont be able to receive calls or texts.
Hope this clarifies things.
I have T-Mobile version of this phone but I use it with Mobilicity.
Any time I go into a place that has no reception I obviously lose signal and both the bars and the 3G icon disappear.
However, when I leave that area and come back to the area where I had reception, the 3G icon never comes back. When I attempt to make a call I a get a message saying "not registered on network". If i go to wireless settings and try to manually search for a provider, the phone will only find Roaming.
The only thing that solves the problem is rebooting the phone.
I have Bionix 1.9 rom but this issue happened on stock as well. It also happens to another guy that has Vibrant9 rom.
On the other hand, other phones like the old samsung galaxy doesn't have that issue.
Any ideas. Am I missing some settings option?
Thanks...
I can only tell you I have exactly the same problem. Using it with Mobilicity.
Let's hope someone will come up with a fix.
A guess is that it has to do with the order in which it is searching to network operators after it loses signal. I am not sure how the phone is hard coded, but it is possible that upon reboot, it checks the SIM for which network to lock on to, but without a reboot it is looking for T-Mobile, because that is hard coded into the phone.
This is all a guess, but perhaps setting it to Manual network selection instead of automatic would help lock it on your network.
^yes, I think if you take it off the auto setting in your mobile network, that may solve the problem. Even though I'm with TMO we had a 3g outage and while it was on auto the same message came up for me, even after the outage was over. Set it to wcdma only, and I was able to make calls and get back on the network.
Setting it to Manual will just force us to do it manually every time it gets disconnected.
Not a solution, unfortunately.
Thanks guys,
Is there an application perhaps that will search for available networks and register on the network of your choosing once found?

Where you able to find a solution to this problem? I'm having the same problem. Let me know. Thanks.
+1111111.... i meant plus 1... but yeah ...i'm having the same problem... Vibrant on Mobilicity w/ Froyo Rom from Axurus <-- i think thats how u spell it
Anyways, this happends while im at home, sitting on the same chair as i was when i had the 3G...and then boom..............3g just disappears and doesn't come back til' i restart....
Have you tried setting the mobile network to "WCDMA Only" ?
Mobilicity doesnt have a GSM network.
hello
having some trouble to activate my Photon 4G im not US resident
and every time after reboot the phone trying to connect to sprint network
but it couldn't of-course because i live in Israel and using different Sim card.
before the Update MR5 i was able to register my device but after the MR5
it's switch's to the Sprint network and says to call the costumer care service.
what is wrong?
Settings, wireless and networks, mobile network and then network mode? Have you tried that? That way it wouldn't search for Sprint.

update
i dont know what i just did but its activated but again giving me "WIFI ERROR"
** MOD EDIT - Please refrain from vulgar language **
You need to put it in GSM only mode in network to work off your sim. If its set to cdma it will only search for those specific networks. Also you can do a manual setup by using the codes in the dialer. Not sure if they work but try *#*#3282*#*# and you will need your msl from your carrier to access. Or root it and use the msl app from the market
Edit its ##3282#

ok im in the menu but i dont see any GSM in none of the menu's
what i see that i can enter 6 digital code to enter
but i dont have it
i send an email to the seller that i'v bought this phone from.
hope that he can give me answer soon.
Why do you need your phone activated on Sprint if you're not going to be using Sprint?
The phone works fine without Sprint activation on an International SIM...

What is most likely happening is that the phone is trying to roam by default on Pelephone's old CDMA network (they have not shut it down, it is running in parallel with their newer 850/2100Mhz UMTS network). You can try to go into Settings->Wireless Networks->Network Mode and change it to "Any GSM/UMTS". See if that helps.
becuase everytime after the stupid update i was restarting the phone its trying to
access the Sprint network from some reason.
after i was activated the phone the wifi stopped working entirely.
I'm on an un-activated Photon and just updated myself. I do not seem to have the Wi-Fi issue you are having. Maybe it's something else...

GUARDIANBD, I am not sure why you are having wifi problems. With respect to your network issues, please confirm that you have indeed changed your network mode to "Any GSM/UMTS". If you have not done this then by not registering on Cellcom, your phone is actually acting as designed. Please understand that this phone is primarily a CDMA phone with GSM/UMTS capabilities added by Sprint as a "bonus" to their customers who go overseas.
Sprint is a CDMA carrier and if your network mode is set to just "Any Network" then they have correctly designed it to first look for a CDMA signal. If it finds one (which in your case it is finding Pelephone's old network), then it ignores any GSM/UMTS networks. If you did indeed change your network mode to "Any GSM/UMTS" and it still is trying to lock onto Pelephone's CDMA network then (and only then) you are right, the phone's software does appear to have a bug in it.
the first thing after i powerdup the phone for the first time i changed it to GSM mode.
like i say'd before its a bug in this update so i want to reverse the process and
return to MR1 update.
if i restart the phone in Airplane mode the wifi works like a charm
but after i change it back to GSM (and for some reason enables the 4G network with it) it disconnected from wifi.
Is 4G enabled on your phone?
Again, if you aren't on Sprint, it would be pretty useless to have 4G enabled.
Un-check 4G in Settings->Wireless & Networks and see if that fixes the issue for you...

Hey guys, I have a few questions that I need to get resolved which MAY help in getting LTE Working solid on Verizon One maxes for those who Have T-Mobile, but I would like to confirm that T-Mobile LTE does work on the Verizon one Max. You don't need to flash ANY special Radios. You can even use Verizon's Latest Radios and it works. All that needs to be done is use *#*#4636*#*# to change the preferred network type to GSM/WCMDA/LTE and boom, it works. The Problem I am having is that you have to switch to GSM Only first, just to get it to Work on T-Mobile before you switch to GSM/WCDMA/LTE. Another problem is that when you reboot once or Twice, my radio keeps on going crazy Rapidly switching from No Service to T-Mobile and Back. I go back into *#*#4636*#*# and I see that it changed to EvDO+CMDA/LTE Mode. I would have to go back and switch to GSM only to fix the problem then back to GSM/WCDMA/LTE Mode to connect to the network again. And yes I have the fast.T-Mobile.com APN Already inputted. This is with both Verizon and Sprint Sense 5 or 6 Roms. So we know LTE works on T-Mobile with the Verizon HTC One Max, But it won't stick. However, I decided to Flash a Cyanongen 11 Rom to the One Max, I am able to go System > Mobile Networks > Preferred Network Type and switch it to GSM/WCDMA/LTE, Reboot, then go into dialer and enter *#*#4636#*#* and Switch to LTE/GSM auto (PRL) and it works flawlessly. No matter how many times I restart, I still instantly connect to T-Mobile's LTE Network. Texting and MMS works with no issue. So what I think the issue is that On Sense roms there is only 6 Different Preffered Network types to choose from but on the Cyanongen 11 Rom, there are over 15. Also, On Sense ROMS there is only a GSM/WCDMA/LTE type with no Auto and I think that's the issue. There is no LTE/GSM auto (PRL) Selection in Sense roms. Because when I choose GSM (auto) on Sense, I can connect to HSPA, 3G, and EDGE with no issues. So I am asking for some help in How can we get more Preferred network type selections under *#*#4636*#*#. Or is there some scripts we can change with the current ones that resemble a LTE/GSM auto (PRL) Selection. But I think that is the culprit in Getting LTE fully working.
And just to Confirm that LTE is working on HTC One Max Verizon Version.
Even when I put my phone in wcdma/gsm/lte my service stays outputting no signal. Even when I reboot it stays like that until I change the network mode.
I wish t mobile released a one max so we could get WiFi calling

This does seem to fix one of the Issues, but I am getting Signal Dropouts on LTE when going from Tower to Tower and have to turn on and off Airplane Mode to get it working agian. Do you ever experience this issue?
I don't have to use airplane mode to regain a signal. In my area T-Mobile has spotty signal strength. That is one reason I use LTE but only when signal is fair to good and for long video streaming. Hspa+ for me is better on battery and suffice for Tapatalk, email, mms, market downloads, apk even short videos, etc. I stream more on the weekend because it football season.

I use to Have a Sprint One Max with it Unlocked as well and I only got HSPA+ Speeds with it. I never Went about getting LTE to work because I though it didn't have the Compatible Radio inside of it. I am hearing that the Sprint Version has the Same LTE bands as the Verizon Network Uses. But I would try to go into you *#*#4636#*#* (or Download Network from the Play Store) And try switching your preferred network to GSM/WCDMA/LTE and see if it works. Make sure, that your APN Is set to the Fast.t-mobile.com One also. That is all I did to get it to work on the Verizon Version.

Same here. Also, I tried switching bands and it did seem to fix the Problem, However it prevents me to Call out or Receive Calls because usually when making or Receiving a Call, the LTE Band goes back to 3G/H/H+ because T-Mobile hasn't Activated VoLTE yet. But it is good to know that LTE does work but it's not really Stable and Global Phone Friendly. The Problems really happen when Driving around or Going from Tower to Tower. Signal goes from perfect to NULL and just stays at 1 or 0 Bars no matter where you go. And you either have to Restart the Phone, Turn the Radio off then on, or Just simply Turn on and Off Airplane Mode to fix it. So I am just using WCMDA or GSM Only for the time being and I don't really want to go to a AOKP CM11 Rom because most of the Features I use aren't there. And just to Clarify, Switching/Flashing Radios and basebands does NOT Fix the problem. I have tried All sorts of Radios, even from T-Mobile HTC One Phones and just doesn't work.
I had used the steps in the link pasted under this to get my LTE working perfectly on the stock Verizon ROM with Sense 5.5 but after upgrading to Sense 6 these changes have caused some issues. The changes worked fine for a day but then the second day mobile data stopped and nothing I did could bring it back. I ended up having to flash a stock rom RUU to get mobile data to come back. I'm not sure why the data stopped on the second day, I may have been from other changes I made to dpi or adding on screen buttons or re-locking the bootloader to use the fingerprint scanner. For now I'm just using gloabal mode which gets me good 3G till I re-gain my courage to try modifying the settings to get the LTE again.
