3G data issues (CDMA ONLY) - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I recently rooted my EVO LTE using Regaw's "one-click-root" and S-OFF with Lazy Panda. I applied the De-odexed STOCK 1.22.651.3 ROM and 1.05.11.0606 radio and PRI 2.45_003.
Everything seems to have been running fine so far. But today, when I change the network mode to "CDMA only"..from "LTE/CDMA"..my 3G data is disabled. When I change back to LTE/CDMA and reboot my phone, my data works fine. Needless to say, when I'm home my WiFi serves my data needs, but I'm concerned I'll end up without data when I'm on the road.
After doing some research, I decided to download the Android app "Network Signal Info" With "LTE/CDMA" selected, "Network Signal Info" reports network type as eHRPD with a data state of "connected". And with "CDMA only" selected, network type is listed as EVDO Rev A, with a data state of "disconnected".
At one point I was able to "update profile" while LTE/CDMA was selected, and my phone prompted me to reboot. But much to my chagrin my issues persist. Can anyone offer me some insight here?

Honestly, I can't pinpoint your problem. There are a couple of things I'd recommend you try, though. First, try toggling airplane mode on and then off while in "CDMA only" mode. Then try the same with mobile network if airplane doesn't fix it.
After toggling those settings (remember to turn airplane mode back off/mobile network back on and check if your data connection is fixed), if you're still having problems, I'd try re-flashing your ROM (wiping recommended ). If that doesn't work, my last resort solution would be running the RUU, found here.

Try updating prl & profile, then reboot

After you change it to cdma only make sure you select "sprint only" in roam settings.

Losing 3G and not getting 1x

When I am not getting 3g coverage I am without data completely. No 1x, I just get a message saying "no data coverage available"
Any suggestions?

I would first suggest looking at the 'mobile network' setting. Go to 'settings' -> 'Wireless & networks' -> 'Mobile network' -> 'Network Mode'. Try different modes and see if this makes anything better. If it's the obvious, it could be that your settings may only be set to 3g. Also, check the radio basebands. Also, I'm not particularly familiar with the ROM you are using as I use the alpha of CM7. So the settings may not be the same. Hope this helps!

Try pulling your battery out, if that dosnt reset the settings go under Settings-about phone-system updates
Run PRL first ( Prefered roaming list)
Run Profile update ( this is for data connections)
Make sure under wireless connections that the phone shows that is is selected to be on automatic connection
Take off any roaming gaurds and re-boot after the changes have been made. Also try toggleing the airplane mode on/off to reupdate connections.
lastly if that all fails, go to dialer and typer *#*#4636#*#* should bring up a list of options, choose phone / connection on the top.. in the middle of the whole list it should have the option for cdma auto or auto Prl.. just verify it is on auto prl...
GOOD LUCK

[Q] VZW Google Edition ROM 5.9 NO LTE

Hi, I am currently using the VZW Google Edition ROM 5.9 and have service and WiFi. My problem is it only connects to 3G, and not 4G. As advised, I have not gone into network settings, but I did open Phone Info and see that it is set to LTE/CDMA auto. Any reason I am not getting LTE?
Just a thought, but maybe you could check the APN settings and see if they are different than what you should have.

Thanks for the response. I am kind of new to this, where do I check the APN settings and how do I know what I should have? Thank you.
Do you have LTE coverage in your area? If so, can you use another phone/friend to double check if LTE is working? I only ask because we had LTE go out where we live.
Gir brings up a good point, I don't have 4G where I am (and probably won't for years!), but that may be simplest as long as they use the same network (although many carriers piggyback off the same network).
The APN settings should be under "Settings > More networks > Mobile networks > Access Point Names". On a stock ROM you have to get to the actual file through ADB, you should be able to see it if you have an aftermarket ROM. The settings for the APN will depend upon Verizon. Here is a good post with APN settings for Verizon, the first part is for Android.
Coverage could always be the issue as that has plagued me more times than not.
From the ROM thread:
Go into mobile network settings.
Verify that your CDMA subscription is set to RUIM and not NV.
For good measure go into the rest of the options and set it to CDMA/LTE, automatic, and allow data roaming.
Back out to your home screen.
Then go into Phone Info app.
Scroll to bottom and tap radio off.
Open the drop down list and select CDMA/LTE auto (PRL).
Turn the radio back on.
Reboot.
Upon reboot open Phone Info again.
Verify it is set to CDMA/LTE auto (PRL)
** you should have full service now * *
** if not * *
In Phone_Info(*#*#4636#*#*):
Try CDMA auto (PRL)
Then try CDMA/GSM/LTE
If those still don't work then your nv_data needs reset. The only way to do that is in the hidden menu dialer codes in a touchwiz-stocktype rom
If you destroy your nv_data and cannot get data back via the above you need to (stop screwing with your network settings)flash back to a TW ROM, enable hidden menu, and do a NV data reset via dialer code. After doing that make sure your phone is not in modem mode under diag dialer code. Until I update this section Google is your friend. And it is available information, verified. Your lack of searching skills doesn't mean pester my inbox...
I do have LTE in my area, as I had 4G before I loaded the rom. I do not have an APN menu under mobile networks. Do you think it could help to dial *228 option 2 to update roaming? Or possibly a new 4G sim card?
Anything about updating I would research first and be wary of... A new SIM card could help, but I'm assuming it is not the problem. Did you make a NANDROID before you changed ROMs? You could then go back and see it you still got 4G to make it evident if your SIM card is the problem.
FIXED
Just needed a new sim card. Thanks guys. I appear to be receiving signal bars with my LTE on the GPE rom as well.

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.

LTE after making a call.

Hey everyone. I just picked up a Verizon LG G3 over the weekend and I am using it on Cricket Wireless (ATT). And everything works great, I have the APNs set up correctly. The only issue I seem to have is that I will be connected to LTE on ATTs network, and when I either receive or make a call it will disconnect from LTE and will connect to global (my guess since it will show a G where it would normally show "4G LTE" or "H". And once I disconnect from the call it connects to the internet again but only to HSPA+ and not back to LTE even though I know for a fact I am still in a LTE supported area. In know this because the only way I seem to be able to connect to LTE is to turn off mobile data and turn it back on. My question is, does anyone have this problem on the Verizon LG G3 while using it on Verizon's network or with ATT/T-mobile?
From what I know the phone should automatically connect to LTE again after the call, not HSPA. Thanks.
Not sure if this is what you want, but perhaps try System Settings, and under Wireless Networks select More, then Mobile Networks.
In Mobile Networks, try System Select. Press "Network Mode" and try adjusting to one of the other options. I'm strictly Verizon, so I changed mine from Global to LTE/CDMA.
Worst case, you don't get connectivity, you can go back and change it again.
HTH!

Thanks Ill try messing with that wen i get home, left my phone there. I have it under global right now.
Just doesn't make sense to me, why would it not connect automatically to LTE after a call. S
