In my epst I switched the radio mode from cdma hdr to just HDR only and saw a huge improvement in 3g speed and connection strength, anyone else try this?

After doing some investigation I came up with this link.
http://ntrg.cs.tcd.ie/undergrad/4ba2.01/group1/hdr.html
xBudahx is correct, it's a high data rate version of CDMA. Probably set to CDMA HDR for better backwards compatibility and/or roaming.
Not quite sure, but if anyone could come up w/ some more documentation on this I would love to see it =)
Oh and anyone on a Verizon PRL, please try this!
Bump bump. Anyone else do this?
LTEvo yea!
I see it running in the background, how do you get to it's settings?
y u no tell us how to change setting
You need your MSL number then in the dialer you type ##3282# and edit the setting in there somewhere. I haven't done it but messed around in there on my EVO Shift.
These changes always seem to get answers all over the board as to whether they help or not so I don't mess with it anymore.
I know the RSTP or HTTP proxy is a setting people like to change as well. It is set to some Sprint address right now but people change one of them to 0.0.0.0 and it supposedly speeds something up. I am sure we'll see a thread on it eventually.
You can get your MSL by calling sprint or downloading the app MSL Reader from the market. It works on the EVO LTE if you're rooted, I just tried it for the hell of it.
found it...
sort of its under the EVDO settings then preferred mode and you can change it there but I am not seeing the HDD option as stated in the OP only HDR. I am going to give it a try.
when i go to edit the stuff it asks for a password. what is it?
I'll give it the ol' college try when I get mine tonight. It's minute away from being delivered.

Not exactly, because there are multiple modes in the EPST. There is a CDMA HDR mode and just a purely HDR mode (sorry about the spelling mistake, was on break at work when I posted -___-)
I'm not sure what it does, lol but I saw the same results at another poster's data speed change, high download, less ping and lower upload?

I'm on verizon and the carrier cab worked for me. Other than doing *228 with Option 1 and letting it reprogram your phone... I can't think of anything else besides those connection settings. If you have another verizon phone that isn't connected... go to the website and activate that phone on the same #... basically killing the current 6800.... after the "New" phone is up and running... then switch back.... *228 , 1... *228 , 2.. and also verify your settings for the internet connection.
My browser hung up... sorry for the double post.

Okay first off I can CONFIRM THE REZOUND IS A GLOBAL PHONE (lets just get that out of the way).
EVIDENCE
Okay so I purchased my HTC Rezound form an American eBayer and he shipped it to me just after Christmas (i live in the UK), i was already under the impression that the Rezound was a global phone but just before it arrived everyone was saying that it doesn't have the GSM or WCDMA networks which made me sad
But when it arrived i thought i would try what i thought would work, sooooo i place the sim card in the phone and powered it up. After setting it up i went to the phones dialer and dialed: *#*#4636#*#* and then went to phone information and changed the network type. I was shocked to find that there was many options including 'GSM only' and 'WCDMA only' . So i switched the phone to WCDMA only and the phone picked up signal and showed T-Mobile in the notification bar .
(I got my data by adding the T-Mobile APN and then going to wi-fi settings>>advanced and changed the time till wifi switches to mobile network to 15 mins (then waited 15 mins))

Problems (That i think can be fixed)
Okay so the only two problems are:
1. I can receive and make calls, can use data (internet) but i can only receive texts and not make them?
(When i try to send a text, as soon as i press send the network signal shuts off and i have to press no when a message appears that says something like "would you like to try and send text when phone has signal?")
Anyone know how to fix? Is this T-Mobile UK SMSC Number?: +447958879879
I HAVE TRIED:
1. Changing SMSC number under: *#*#4636#*#* (there is no option in the HTC Mms.apk (Messaging app))
2. Changing to/installed HTC Sensation XE's [SENSE 3.5] Mms.apk and still same problem (also made sure the SMSC number is correct)
Screenshot to show texts not sending and network stops: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B0U8I71u15EGYTFhMGEwZmMtMzYwZi00MTdkLWI2MGQtYmIxMDljNGUyZDgy
2. And the other is just to get rid of the lockscreen message that says "This SIM card is from an unknown source".
TEMP FIX (Until Reboot): If the ROM you are using has the tweaks menu (MikROM) then you can go to Miscellaneous Options>>>Choose Lockscreen Style and select 'Android Lockscreen', Then Restart or Hot Restart and change the option back to 'HTC Sense Lockscreen'. THIS WILL REMOVE THE 'This SIM card is from an unknown source' message, but this process must be done every time your battery dies or you turn off the phone.
(still better than the ugly message every time you turn on the phone screen).

So please could some DEVS work on this cause this is another great advantage to the Rezound that was let down by the Verizon tailored HTC Sense.
This
You just need the exact right apns for sending texts. I hope you deleted the Verizon ones?
I'd do an APN backup of an htc t mobile phone, then in the rezound delete apns, then restore apns
I use apn backup and restore
Mb you've already done exactly this but thought I'd suggest. Need to customize a few apns for your phone number, mb didn't customize all of them? Our if Verizon one still sits there?
Possibly need a copy of an mms.apk from a gsm phone because some settings built into the Verizon apk may make it fail to send
I did delete the verizon ones, and i only filled in the T-mobile APN like this and left all other settings blank:
APN: general.t-mobile.uk
Username: user
Password: pass
Dude, seriously.... DOES NOT BELONG IN DEVELOPMENT!
Back in my experience with AT&T, there was a phone number for the messing center that needed to be input. Otherwise, you couldn't send text but could receive them. Do you'll need 2 things ... the phone number to your carrier's messaging center and the place to input it in your phone.
I did a quick look and couldn't find the field. But that's what you're missing.

No, it does not belong in development. Development is for WORKING MODS/HACKS/ROMS/KERNERLS/ETC, not to talk about or request Developer help. Hence why it was moved.
I think it is funny that people think that the Devs are locked in the development forum and can't get out. That the only place to reach them is in there . Yes they can and do read other forums!

That would be because you used the VZW sim which only works on certain frequency. They are talking about unlocking the sim and using one that authenticates for GSM/WCDMA/LTE.
The MMS.apk app you have is the CDMA version of it so no you will not have access to the SMS center number... You need to have the mms.apk from a GSM sense phone to have access to that settings, but even then you will probably run into problems.
Problems like.. Resolutions issues, FC's ... It not working at all
OR... Its a universal apk and a simple edit with in one of the XMLs would enable that options or something..... Food for thought

try pushing the mms.apk and such from a european sensation sense 3.5 rom. Then reboot into recovery and clear the cache and dalvik cache. Maybe that will work for you.

Hi,
is there any way to put a different ROM on an AT&T Lumia 920.
I intend to use it overseas but I need the Internet Sharing option enabled (wifi hotspot) and as far as I know AT&T and Rogers has it blocked by default.
Any help on this?

But does it enable it to any carrier?
Because I have read that this app has predefined APNs for some selected carriers, and I'm planning to use it on carriers that may not be listed on it.
Actually, it uses the APN's from the SIM and it works really good.

Are you asking if a ROM flash will unlock your phone so that you can use a different carrier's SIM? You'd need to do that first. Then you can use Access Point.
Are you saying that the access point app enables tethering on AT&T without a tethering plan???
If so, I suppose anyone can sideload this app and start tethering on AT&T without flashing new ROMs?

I can't either, its region/ROM specific in the Nokia store apparently. You would need to sideload if anything or else flash a different ROM to get the app.
Can we sideload apps on WP8?
I didn't know this app was not available for all regions.

Hmm, does anyone know if you select AT&T 3G, does that then disable LTE? Is there any benefit to have one of those AP's selected over the others?

I suspect this:
When a carrier has LTE aside from GSM it has to have two different APNs since there are different core networks.
That's why you have to have at least 2 APN configured, one for LTE ( the data will go thru LTE data core) and when the phone is out of LTE coverage, in 3G/2G GSM it uses the other APN configured for GSM data.
you can confirm this by just leaving only one APN configured and try to use data on LTE and 3G HSPA, only one should work depending on which APN you configured.

I see, so what you are saying is if I select 3G, it should automatically switch to one of the LTE ones. But if I select 3G and delete the other two, it will only work on 3G?
I would test that theory, but my device will not let me delete or modify the built in APNs (guessing it's an ATT restriction).

Once installed, it will be on Settings. As far as I know, you need an unlocked device to make internet sharing works. (I could be wrong)
APN wise, it should automatically detect the settings of your carrier from the SIM. I never really messed with it as much. I was just curious about the app hehe.
If you guys need more help, go to wpcentral's forums and search for access point. There are tons of threads about it.
well guys, I'm onboard. I just ordered my unlocked AT&T lumia 920 and as soon as it arrives I will install this app.
Thanks everyone for their sharing.
Installed the app and I'm still not able to enable Internet Sharing. In Access Point there are two LTE options and one 3G. For both LTE options attempting to enable LTE gives the message about going to the AT&T website.
With the 3G option it simply saying "Internet sharing isn't currently available".

Thank you, that did the trick for me. I just moved from Straight Talk to MetroPCS. The rom I am currently running on my phone had MetroPCS APN settings built in, but they were different. I assume they must be for the old cdma network. In any case they were working for me, but LTE was only pulling 2 mbps. I changed to your settings, and speeds are now back to where they were on Straight Talk.

Unless you have an international plan with T-mobile your phone will not work outside of the US.

Update on metroPCS APN settings.
Hello, all:
I just set up two phones on metroPCS, one of them a new Kindle Fire phone for my wife, and my Samsung S4 GT-i9500 [PhoenixROM]. I tried utilizing the settings supplied on the phone after the initial configuration; Internet connectivity from the phone did not work. I tried the settings listed here, but I continued to experience the same issue.
After dealing with these not working, I ended up taking a look at my wife's phone, which had worked without any problems immediately after setup. Upon comparing her settings to the settings listed here in XDA, the one big difference I had noticed was on the APN setting. When I changed the setting to what she had, it started working immediately.
If anyone is having a similar problem, change the "APN" setting to: fast.metropcs.com vice fast.tmobile.com (or fast.t-mobile.com); it should take care of the problem. HTH someone like the site has helped me.
Hello, I am in the same boat and the above posts have not worked for me. I recently bought the Elephone P6000 so it didn't come with any APNs by default.

Name should not make a difference (whether MetroPCS, metripcs or LeroyJenkins, it's just the name)
Fast.t-mobile.com and fast.t-mobile.com both worked for my M8 (fast.metropcs.com did not anymore after Lollipop upgrade), however, since you are not using an HTC One, try using the fast.metropcs.com APN as suggested by OS2Tech. Good luck!

I have the LS990 (Sprint) so I don't know if it is the same for other devices (comment below if it works for you)
I am not responsible for any damage you do or any mistakes.
ROOT IS REQUIRED
DOWNLOAD THE SHORTCUT MASTER LITE APP IN THE PLAYSTORE: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.shortcutmaster.lite&hl=en
I was messing around with the hiddenmenus in the phone and I found a way to force LTE only on the LG G3. It normally does't give you that option in the Mobile Data network settings because you can't make calls on just LTE yet so if you turn this on, make sure you switch it back to what setting it was before so you can make and receive calls.
Launch Shortcut Master Lite and open the menu to search for "systemselection"
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
tap on "com.lge.hiddenmenu.vzw_only.SystemSelection" and click launch. Then Grant SU.
Then finally tap on Network mode and you will be able to select LTE only. Again make sure you switch it back so you can receive and make calls.
There you go! I am with Sprint so sometimes data is really slow and for whatever reason sometimes my data would stay on 3G even though I am in an LTE area so this way forces it on.
I have more goodies if you guys want to see them (ex: see what LTE band you are on and and turning them on and off, turning on Lab mode, production mode to Lab mode, etc)
Just to let you know lte does not support calls so you will need to enable VOLTE so you can get voice over lte (volte). You can enable this via shorcut master just search "VOLTE" then enable it. (Just thought I'd let you know )

Yes I've mentioned that many times in the post. Also I can't find where to enable VOLTE like you mentioned. Can you please give instructions.
What's Lab mode?

I'm not sure. Something with testing though. I did turn it on and everything was the same.

I was just complaining the other day about how I missed svdo that the HTC evo 4g lte had. Simultaneous Voice over data. On this device, when you start a call, data connection stops.
Would VOLTE enable svdo? Thatd be absolutely awesome.
I was reading about some secret menu and it has a mode like that I tried it and I was able to make calls and come on xda. I will have to look for the exact setting but you can find the area in shortcut master just search for "com.lge.SprintHiddenMenu.sprintspec.Data" (No quotes). You need your MSL code in order to modify these settings if you don't have it you can call sprint and request it for free. The only thing you need is your account pin code and your phones iemi if you have multiple device's it just makes life easier for the person. Then just click "Edit" and type in your IEMI number and you can edit anything.
I don't know for sure and I don't take responsibility if you do this but I am pretty sure that you have to turn on "DDTM". You can find it under "EVDO". Again I have no idea if this is it so just make sure before doing this you make a backup. If something goes wrong PM me and I will help you. If you don't make a backup and something goes wrong don't get mad at me because I will not help if your mean
So VOLTE allowed you to browse Xda while in a call, or DDTM did? Sorry, just a bit confused. But if you found a way to have data and phone at same time, that would be fanfreakingtastic !

VOLTE allows you to do that but Sprint is not setup for that. You can't call with data anyways with tri-band devices but you could with LTE non-spark devices. It has to do something with the number of radios.
Damn, that sucks. My evo LTE had svdo, and that was such a great feature. Really pisses me off that CDMA tech makes it necessary to have extra radios for that, radios that no one includes. I believe the evo lte and one Samsung or moto device had the appropriate radios, and that was it. The 2 flagships during early stages of lte rollout were the only ones.
Sorry for hijacking thread.

It's ok. Did the force LTE on work for you? No one else gave me confirmation. If it did could you say the version of Android and what device you have?
I haven't tried yet, sorry. I was unclear if DDTS needed to be selected, or just VOLTE.
Has anyone had luck with DDTS change?

That short cut is for ##data# dialer code, now I wish I had data when making a call. But no sprint phone I ever owned did it, so I guess I don't know what I'm missing.

I did the force LTE and it works great. I'm in a horrible LTE area, aka, the entire state of NH, so forcing it to only LTE really helps keep it there once I have it. Thanks!
great job on this one....it does work but yes u cant make or receive calls but text does work....to change it back u can just go under normal network setting and reselect it

I was able to perform the same steps on the VzW G4 with success. Each of the modes seems to work as described!
I wonder if there is a way to get to the Phone Info screen though, I'm fairly sure its just a simple hack to enable it, as a dialog pops up over the info screen that says "This application does not work on this device."
