Tethering messes up my 3g! - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I seem to be having trouble with wirelessly tethering. Every time I try to tether either the 3g seems to toggle on and off every 30 seconds or the 3g stays on and just hangs. I am on the 605.3 radios and flashed CDMA first followed by LTE. I HAVE to stay in CDMA - rev. A mode other wise I lose all data connections.
Another thing I noticed is that I can not connect to the LTE network. I assume this is because I have to stay in rev. A, but upon flashing the new radios this is what I have for connection types.

CDMA (PRL) works and unknown works until I enter a LTE area.
What should I do?

When i tether on wifi hot spot or usb tether to my laptop (my friends connect their iPods and phones to them all the time and i never get compaints) it redirects what ever page i want to go on to a T-Mobile page trying to get me to pay for tethering. I can easily get around it with a proxy but sometimes i can't use it. Is there anyway around this?

4G signal....but no 4G connectivity

The tower near by finally switched over to 4G today. I've always had crappy 3G service at my house, and have been waiting for this day to come hoping it would improve signal a bit and provide faster service. I don't have DSL/Cable options, so my primary source of inet is Verizon. Does anyone have any idea why the phone would show 4G signal in advanced signal status, but only connect to 3G. I know i'm in a bad area, and sometimes if your near a window it will switch to 4g...but it ALWAYS shows a 4G connection if you open advanced signal status. I am debating on getting the Wilson 4G LTE 700 signal booster...but not too sure yet. Any suggestions?

No extended, only roaming?

My phone doesn't go into extended CDMA (Verizon) service area. It completely skips it and goes into Roaming Service. My old phone would pick up the extended service no problem, and actually never roamed, but it was CDMA only.

Is there any way I can force Extended over Roaming? I would hate to be charged over this... We have WiFi, but it's not the most reliable because of where we live. I used to be able to pick up 4g Extended, which is faster than our WiFi anyways, and I would love to get that again!
Thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it!

Can't turn data in roaming on

Hi
Got a problem
I'm unable to turn on data transfer when I'm on roaming. This problem is very irritating, because my network provider (PLAY PL) uses another providers transmitters, e.g. T-Mobile, and my phone is in national roaming - it shows: Play (T-Mobile PL).
When my phone is in roaming, I can't get into internet without Wi-Fi. Everything is enabled, but no data.
Tried on PureX Z2 9.0 by @Rajeev and on MX ROM 7.5.0.
I have locked BL after DRM restore, everything was working fine on ExistenZ.....
Does anybody know why I can't connect with internet in roaming?

Redmi 3 sees EV-DO signal but can't connect to the internet with it

I use Smartfren (a CDMA provider in Indonesia that's transitioning to LTE). I wanted to use its LTE service with my Redmi 3, but I can't - http://en.miui.com/thread-253364-1-1.html (well that's a bit of a guess but the symptoms are exactly the same...)
I want to use that Micro SD slot, and with me not wanting to cut up my SIM card that leaves me with CDMA+EV-DO (at least until I get my bootloader unlocked and flash CM in the hope of seeing the problem solved).
My phone sees the 3G signal, but seems to never be able to connect to the Internet with it. Any ideas?
