[Q] Choose Roaming Network (Japan) - HTC Rezound

I am in japan and can't get my phone to make calls or send SMS. I can receive SMS and some times get calls. I get a busy tone and a pop up error saying "network busy"
I talked to global support about this and they said that the phone should work on the CDMA networks here but thinks that being that this is a new phone it may have problems actually accessing the networks*cough* B#llSh*t *cough*... They didn't have much else they said they could do to help. I had to use Google Voice to call them...
Can some one help me figure out how to choice what network i use to roam on. I have gone in the the *#*#4637#*#*->Phone Info and tried changing the "set preferred network type" with no luck
Also tried this(found from google search):
A. From the phone pad enter *#*#4636#*#*
B. This should show a screen with a number of options, choose "Phone Information"
C. From the Phone info screen use the menu key to bring up the menu and select "select radio band"
D. Select "JAPAN band"
E. Your phone should connect straight away.
But i do not see the "select radio band" option from that menu.
Any Ideas? Big thanks to anyone that can point me toward a solution!

There is very little CDMA as we know it here in the US in japan. Mostly in airports alone or common international ports. Who told you you could use a CDMA in japan without an issue? Wifi is going to be your only friend there. The Rezound is by no means a global phone. The sim card is for LTE only.
Also... The rates are outrageous for calling. Receiving a text is not bad. Just wifi skype or google voice it.

Yea very true the rezound or any vzw lte phone is not a world phone. Unless the country is on the same band as cdma then there's nothing that can b done.

The VZW rep said so and so did their web site ( I can't post links here yet... http: //b2b. vzw. com /international/Roaming/Asia-Pacific/Japan.html or google verizon wireless cdma japan)
I was skeptical to hear it but just went with it. My boss has a VZW CDMA non global phone and can make calls but has problem with the SMS out. The price the my companys problem... So I got a temp rental for the trip just wish i could have mine working!

I am getting signal and can recieve SMS and Calls so i must be on some type of network in the right CDMA Band...

Would probably be easier if you are just visiting there, to get a global phone as a secondary phone and buy a prepaid sim when you travel.

I can actually roam with my SPRINT (CDMA) HTC EVO in Tokyo. On Sprint website, it says I can receive text msg but not sending one. Calling/Receiving call is no problem.

setup MTNL Garuda service (Mumbai) on HTC Touch Pro CDMA US Cellular

Hi,
I purchased HTC Touch Pro (US Cellular CDMA). I want to use it with Mumbai MTNL Garuda Mobile Phone service in Mumbai, India.
I don't know much of cell phone flashing and reading web pages would like to get this done.
1) How do I check my phone needs what ROM and which one is it already using ? I assume ROM is like BIOS and windows mobile is like win xp os. So installing ROM will not affect windows mobile. do I have to flash rom for a specific carrier\service provider ?
2) How do I check whether my phone in unlocked since this is CDMA and has no sim card ? In ebay ad said it was unlocked.
3) How do I find roms for "mumbai garuda mtnl". You can google the quoted string for information on service provider. I don't see much helpful info on site and the service provider is not helping. It is open to questions if I have any so let me know if you want me to ask them. can one check compatibility between US cellular and MTNL garuda mobile cdma network so I know I can use the phone.
4) Please enumerate high level steps with some pointers for me to follow through the install process.
5) is the handset supporting 3G since I see its network specs as:
Network US cellular:
Dual-band (800/1900MHz), CDMA2000 1xEVDO Rev. A/1xRTT and IS-95A/B voice or data with up to 1.8 Mbps up-link and 3.1 Mbps down-link
MTNL Garuda mobile network is CDMA-1x. Another MTNL 3G Jadoo is 3G (WCDMA, HSDPA).
so compatibility wise can I use the US cellular handset on MTNL ?
CDDMA-1x and CDMA2000 1xRTT are same so I suppose handset should be usable.
6) when switching carrier is it simple as registering your new handset with new carrier ? is there standard process for it like call in their network using some special number and type in your existing number which you have with their network. ex. if I have 20337444 number on MTNL network then on HTC Touch Pro I dial in some special number for MTNL network and then key in my existing 20337444. This will register the ESN on their network and I am all set.
7) the MTNL guy said that first check if dialing *228 gives you MTNL network. If so then go to customer service and get more help. When I dail I don't think it does any thing. It gives 3 beeps and returns to home screen.
Additional info MTNL gave was they use channels primary 185 and secondary 226. I am not sure what these channels mean.
Regards,
i dont beleive you have to flash any specific rom to get your carrier to work, but you will have to google for "carrier cabs" + your provider name to find what will work for you
to see if your phone is unlocked take the back off the phone, pull the battery, and then put the battery back in, hold the volume down button and press power till the phone turns on, i beleive it will say something like "security unlocked" if the phone is unlocked, after you check that just pull the battery and put it back in once again and start up your phone to get back into windows mobile(not holding the volume down button this time)
as far as roms for the mtnl garuda, any rom will work, i reccommend the energyrom, google energyroms.com, cdma seems to be cdma anywhere you are, if it says cdma it should work in theory
your handset will support 3g, the us cellular version of touch pro supports 3g
for the mtnl garuda carrier to support your phone, you will have to see if they will accept your meid or esn under the battery, here in the USA verizon wont accept sprint esns, and vice versa
sorry i cant be more helpful, but hopefully somewhere through this i have helped you, good luck!

thanks for reply. I searched for "carrier cabs mtnl garuda" but no good results.
I learned from specs the model is RAHP800. does it mean that it will not work on MTNL garuda ?
MTNL garuda CDMA carrier cabs
Hi,
can some one provide carrier cabs for MTNL garuda CDMA (no RUIM) along with install instructions. would be nice if you have activation instructions. how do I get *228 to connect me to MTNL network ?
a touch pro 800 is the sprint cdma touch pro, and about the cabs sorry man i have no idea, usually when i call boost mobile to activate a new phone i provide them with my numbers from underneath the battery, and they will give me the msl code to enter epst and change the msid and mdn, maybe you could call your carrier and ask for the msid and mdn? as far as getting your msl code, as long as you have the microsoft .net cf 3.5 cab installed on your phone you can use a program called "baf msl grabber" to get that code
good luck, hope you figure something out, and if you need anything else feel free to contact me
Do you know anyone else with a TP runnon that same network? Maybe you can get some files from their phone.
the terms you used are new to me like "msl code to enter epst and change the msid and mdn".
You state "msl code to enter epst and change the msid and mdn," and use "baf msl grabber" to get that code. The MTNL garuda mumbai service folks I talked to are not willing to give any details. They in fact are just not supporting any handset other than what they provide. Now they are discontinuing new cdma handsets which are not using RUIM card (they say its similar to sim card).
can you guide me to some article which has instructions and explanation of various steps we might take to get things done like ones we have on eHow.com.

I do not know of any such user. can you guide me to simple article which expalins the steps involved in doing any programming / install of cabs etc. I have not much idea about cdma programming.
Regards,
Installing carrier cabs and flashing roms wont make the phone work on the network you want it to. The first thing you need is to change the PRL on the device to one that works with your carrier. This a file file you may be able to download, or get it from someone elses phone who uses the same carrier. After that, you will need to program all your info into it, MDN, ect. Then hopefully your carrier will even allow the ESN on their network. Did you say this was a US Cellular device?
Hi,
I learned from service provider that need to disable PRL and then use programming code so can feed in information. So for US Cellular HTC Touch PRO CDMA (no sim/ruim) can one provide programming code\dial codes ?
Do I need activation code in order to be able to enter into programming mode ?
Here is some reference for it: http://support.sprint.com/support/a...e-vw371511-20090807-140419?&INTNAV=SU:DP:HDIB
I would like to program my phone and when I dial ##778# and make a call it just ends. I am not sure how to enter the progam mode. Please guide.
There isn't a master list or anything like that. I used to flash phones to cricket and the 2 TPs I've flashed from us cellular were problematic. Could have been a coincidence. You need to obtain the PRL.

HTC Touch Pro unlock and program code
Hi,
I dialed ##000000 and it now put me into EPST (Activation Wizard(MSL)) screen. I guess I have made some progress and I see MDN, MSID, Home SID/NID #1.
It seems all sprint code listed here http://www.pcoperative.com/ppc/htc_tp_dial_codes.htm
works just that no need to key in ending # for each code.
Well how to check that phone is unlocked. I dialed ##775 to update PRL and it prompted me for unlock code.
I purchased phone from ebay and the ad mentioned that its unlocked.
is unlock code same as SPC/MSL unlock code ?
I went into bootloader and it shows Security Unlocked.
Why does it prompt me for unlock code when I go to ##775 to update PRL ? what to do so I can disable PRL ?
Few other codes like ##DEBUG and Advanced EPST show me information fine without prompting for any unlock code.
Regards,
You haven't made any progress at all unfortunately, you still need the prl. Any codes you enter that allow you to MODIFY phone settings will require an unlock code.

[Q] Only data network available - no calling/texts

I picked up an unlocked TMo One in New York last week. I used it there with my Norwegian SIM with no problems.
Back home, I get "No Service" using the exact same SIM-card. Using the *#*#INFO#*#*-menu, I can see the SIM-card is recognised because it displays my carrier in the "Current Network" field. I am suspecting the TMo-infused Sense OS to reject my card, since to my understanding the phone is compatible with EU networks. Will i be fine if i flash another ROM, like the stock GPe, and get rid of the TMo-stuff altogheter, or is there another rock in the road here?
I used my Tmobile HTC One with the stock ROM in Norway using a Telenor SIM and in Greece using a Vodafone SIM.
I would make sure you have the proper APN info (I can't remember the appropriate one for the Norwegian carriers). I believe it should work without issues (mine did). If it worked with that SIM card already, it's not locked and it's not rejecting it.
Also, I found that when I returned home to the US, I had to choose Settings -> Mobile Data -> Network Operators and choose Select Automatically (even though it was already chosen). Maybe you need to do that too.
Currently I am running Android Revolution and that also works fine with my Norwegian and TMOUS SIM cards.
Good luck!
Thanks! I've at least made some progress. I tried setting Network Selection to automatic, and got reception, however only for about half a minute. I then tried adding my provider's APN info. This has given me permanent data connection, but still no GSM reception for texts and phone calls. I do get 2g data when in low coverage areas. I am finding this weird. Can anyone shed some light?
Okay. Just wanted to post my latest findings - if others are experiencing the same issue. I've flashed the latest Google Edition RUU, to see if the TMo ROM was causing it. But i still don't get GSM coverage. Data still connected on both 2G and 3G (haven't been within 4G coverage yet..)
When flashing I also updated firmware to latest.
Phone info says Current network: "NetCom" (my home network) GSM service: "Emergency Calls only" (I tested this, and I am able to place the call to emergency services) and GPRS service: "Connected" (I am typing this on my data connection via WiFi-tethering, actually)
The status menu shows this: Service state "Out of service" and My phone number "Unknown".
If anyone can come up with a theory, I am all ears..

Have you tried taking the phone to your provider? Maybe you need an update which or setting which they can provide.
I find it strange that it wouldn't recognize your phone number, usually that's a sign of some type of incompatibility with the phone and the network.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
I have contacted my provider to see if there's anything they can do. But they're playing a little hard to get.. I was afraid there would be an issue with compatibility at first, by since my data connection is all right, I'm not so sure. Also erdelyt above here says he has used the TMo phone in Norway without trouble. He has another provider, however. They run their own network, so I will be trying with one of their SIM cards next, if my provider NetCom aren't of any help. Thanks for your help so far. I'll be posting my findings further!
So, I got to try a Telenor SIM card the other day, and the issue is still there. Although, with that card the phone number was read and displayed in the phone info menu. The owner of the card suggested there was an unlock issue - but I did make calls with my phone and SIM card in the US, so I don't see how that could be.
So that's a small step further, but now I just have to wait to see what my carrier says..
I changed the title for this thread after my findings.. I got a new SIM-card for my carrier, and i got coverage to make one phone call, but after i hung up, it was gone. I am really in the dark here.. It can of course be a hardware fault, but that's a bit strange for an entirely new product..

Should Rezound show signal bars with no SIM card?

Here's the deal, I bought my Rezound in 2012 and flashed it to PagePlus Cellular using CDMA WS.
I've used it and it's been fine, running CM10 most of the time. I just bought a Evo 4G LTE and switched to that. So I RUU'd my Rezound, and it says a SIM card is required, etc.. but there are no signal bars.
I go into About Phone > Network >
and Operater name is "Unknown," signal strength is "0", service state is "out of service."
Now, the question is, is that normal? Does the phone need a sim card to connect to verizon towers?
I don't want to sell it while it's not working. I did call up Verizon and they said the ESN was clear for activation though.
So if I sell it and the new user puts in a SIM card, will it clear up all the signal issues? Or have I done the RUU incorrectly? [I did it a couple times because it didn't work the first time (the SD card method, then I did fastboot method)]
Thank you!
That is not normal behavior and you may need to do some more work before you sell it.
Make sure all related network settings are correct for Verizon instead of GSM under Settings > Mobile Network menu.
Try entering on the stock dialer *#*#4636#*#* to access the hidden testing menu as well for the phone radio and verify it is on CDMA. If that code doesn't work on the dialer try it via an app like "Hidden Menus" or even "Battery Monitor Widget" by 3C (click "Tests" icon > Phone information from main page of app.)
Background: I broke off of my Verizon contract six months in and used my phone as a WiFi-only device (VoIP and internet texting apps) for the longest time. While I typically hid my signal icon and ran the phone in Airplane mode with WiFi toggled back on, I would occasionally turn my radio on to resync time and date to the cellular network. With no SIM in it clearly was syncing off Verizon CDMA signal still; I simply wasn't fully activated on the network any longer.
I just made the StraightTalk AT&T SIM card plunge the past couple of weeks and did an NV edit in CDMA WS as well, all alright on GSM. I am on the stock global ICS ROM at the moment, one I know could sync time on CDMA before. However, I cannot get the phone to switch off of GSM even in the hidden testing menu, even without SIM in... Likely has to do with the NV edits I made, and perhaps that may be your case too.
You *could* repurpose the sale as a GSM enabled unit... If it was even set up and working well as such. But due to the current technical issues of getting GSM mobile data above 2G I'd suggest to get it fixed and working back on stock CDMA for the consumer's sake if you can. Again AFAIK It should pick up a CDMA signal even without active service or the Verizon LTE SIM in, did so for over a year lol.

in the mobile network, I have it set to "CDMA / LTE" but I tried "CDMA only" and "Global" but none worked.
*#*#4636#*#* didn't work in stock dialer, it just disappeared when I finished typing it.
then I downloaded Hidden Menu, found *#*#4636#*#* in the list, tapped it, and it did nothing. I did some other ones and they did do something. I found htc diag mode, the same one I used to program it originally. I clicked read, and the phone number and min were blank. so I went to the prl and tried flashing a verizon prl file, then rebooted, and still nothing.
I'm going to try to RUU again and hope that solves it.
Update
I RUU'ed again, but still no luck..
Can anyone confirm whether or not, say you got a Rezound out of the box never activated, would you need a SIM card to get the signal initiated? I'm thinking either that's the case and my phone just needs a sim card to jump start it, or my rezound is toast.

phone is stuck on claro network (dominincan republic)

Standard htc one m9 with ATT. not rooted and up-to-date with android 5.1.
I went to domincan republic for 2 weeks and I purchased the att passport package. Once I was there, I searched for networks and used the Claro 4g network over there the whole time. Once I return to the US, the phone refuses to automatically connect to the ATT network and continues to search for the claro network.
What Ive done so far.
-muliple restarts
-remove sim
-When I go into network operators, both options "search networks" and "select automatically" are greyed out and I cant select them
-When the phone is restarted, the "network operators" screen pops up and lists ATT, sprint and verizon. But when I try select any of them, i get an error message saying "operation failed"
-ive reset the APN to default multiple times
Heres where it gets weird. I popped out the sim and put it into my htc one m7 and the phone works fine and connects to the att network. I can make calls and use the web. Once I place the sim back into the M9, it will connect to the att 4g network briefly. I can make a call to my voicemail very quickly once i gain service and it will work and I can browse the web during the call. Once the phone call hangs up, the connectivity bars slowly go down until i lose service and the a msg pops up saying "Claro Network unavailable". I can repeat this cycle over and over.
I tried placing the sim card back in and resetting the APN right away a bunch of times. This actually allowed me to stay connected to the ATT network for a few days. HOWEVER, I had to restart the phone and I was back to square one.
ATT was no help and they basically told me to hard reset the phone. WTF.
Any advice?
anyone?

Anyone using this phone with AT&T in the US?

I love this phone....there, I said it. But it's driving me crazy.
I bought it from a Chinese retailer, who shipped it with X821 firmware, but the box states that it's an X820. I doubt there is any difference in the hardware.
I would have left everything as it was, but I can't seem to make phone calls (don't have a data plan yet...yeah, I know....) with anything other than 2G, and that is about to go extinct. When I set it to WCDMA, it shows a UMTS connection, with no carrier designation, but the tower is the same one I connect to with 2G. The phone does sometimes show an AT&T 3G connection in the status bar, but I can't make calls, even though I have full signal. When I place the same SIM in my old HTC Inspire, the same monitoring app shows "UMTS - AT&T HSDPA+" and works just fine.
I'm at my wits end. I have rooted, installed TeamSpain recovery, replaced the firmware with the X829 and even tinkered with the frequency configurations through DFS Studio (which did a lot of complaining, and I'm still not sure if the changes stuck 100%). I also played with APN settings and tried the SIM in different slots, both alone, and with another SIM. And after all of that, still no progress in getting this phone to use a 3G or 4G connection to make calls. If I don't set it to "GSM only", no phone calls in or out. I'm essentially right under a tower, so signal shouldn't be an issue.
If anyone is using the same provider in the US, and is not having these kinds of issues, I'd really appreciate hearing what firmware you are using, and/or what you did to get things working.
I am using it on x820 with official stock 0.17s firmware, and did a dirty flash to cuoco92's 17s firmware. Everything works including HD voice calls, and full LTE.

I tried this, as well as the Remix ROM. In fact, I think I've tried just about everything, without success. At one point, I had one of the apps indicating a 4G connection, but the phone diagnostics showed GSM (2G). Even the apps aren't all sure what to make of what's going on with the connections reported by this phone.
Currently on the cuoco92 v35 ROM. When WCDMA is enabled, I see simply a good UMTS connection , sans carrier name, in the "Network Cell Info Lite" app, and no ability to make calls. I also often (but not always) see the "AT&T 3G" sign. 4G or LTE never shows at all, even though the diagnostics show that the phone is communicating with an LTE transmitter, when preferred network is set to "unknown". It won't even let me set things like "LTE only".
Any chance you could set your phone to WCDMA and see what the "Network Cell Info Lite" app shows you? Anyone else with this phone on AT&T?
BTW, I am now using a data plan, which I thought might make a difference. It doesn't. EDGE data only for me . New SIM card is on the way, but my hopes aren't high.
Is it possible for a Chinese seller to have borked the phone so thoroughly with their x821 ROM (it's an x820 marked phone), that it keeps any subsequent radios from flashing properly? I don't know how/why it would work for some and not others.
Starting to really dislike this "phone"......it's more of tablet at this point.
Thanks.
I think APN is not set for AT&T
try this:
"Main steps
To use data services on our network with a non-AT&T device, you may need to program the data settings. The sections below provide the correct settings and steps for programming based on your device type and operating system.

Thanks, but I wish it were so simple. I have tried this, and other APN settings. None work to get this phone to be usable on anything other than 2G.
I just received and activated the replacement SIM. Still no improvement. While typing this, I have Network Cell Info Lite app running, and with the Set Preferred Network Type showing "Unknown" in the phone's diagnostic screen, It will switch randomly between "EDGE AT&T" (which works fine) and "UMTS -" (which is useless). Both have strong signals. For a split second before it switched to "UMTS-", the app showed "GPRS AT&T", but only for a split second before it kicks over to "UMTS-".
I wish someone using this "phone" on AT&T in the US, would run this app to compare notes. It may be that that the phone works fine on a full implementation of LTE (i.e. in locations where AT&T have already deprecated 2G) but not in other areas. Still, that doesn't seem to explain why this phone seems unable to register on the same 3G network, used easily by my other phone, with the very same APN settings and SIM.
You would have to call att and check if they turned our phone on to use lte. If your phone is not "registered" as an LTE capable phone it wouldn't be able to pick it up. This phone has all the bands needed for AT&T because I am using it now. All LTE work straight out the box, and i'm on the latest 19s cn rom

I'm a bit confused. Is this what you did to achieve proper function of this device? I.e. calling AT&T and getting them to do this for you? My conversation with their tech person didn't seem to bear fruit in this regard.
Also, which slot do you have the SIM card in? I've used the stock 17s and now on cuoco92 v35 ROM. There definitely seems to be a difference in how the network settings behave, based on the location of the SIM. At one point, after selecting BAND 6 (when it would let me), the phone showed a constant "AT&T 3G" connection, but it was useless. No calls and no data.
