I brought my Verizon rezound to south korea in hopes of using it. It was unmodified, only OTA ICS update, S-On etc. I put on the Global RUU from androidpolice, but only ran it one time. (I read that sometimes this phone needs flashed twice, does that apply to firmware updates like the Global RUU too?) Anyway, got a Korean carrier, KT Olleh, and put in the SIM card. I have fully functional calling and texting in and out, but cannot get a data signal. I have the APN set correctly to alwayson.ktfwing.com. Any ideas where to start gentleman? I am a bit of a noob, but I'll try anything if I have the right instruction! Thank you!
Are you on stock global or on another rom ?

I know but im just asking if he changed roms or if he stayed on stock global. If he changed roms it can causes no data if you flash a non-global rom unless you use a GSM patch. As for getting data one time i put a GSM sim in my phone and it took a while before i got any data and i was on a global rom. Also make sure your data type is set to either Global or GSM/UMTS in mobile network settings.
Sometimes you need to enable roaming as well however I would make sure that you are supposed to be roaming.
Yes stock
Yes, I am on the stock Global. No other modifications. Just tried setting to GSM/UMTS instead of Global mode and still no data. Restarted the phone for good measure, nothing. Turned on Roaming, reset, nothing. Someone else suggested that the rezound may not have the radio for the data frequency band here, but I thought I read that it had 2100Mhz. The carriers network information is as follows:
Supported Frequencies
The mobile phone must support 3G WCDMA 2100 MHz frequencies. Note that CDMA mobile phones are not compatible, as they are different from WCDMA phones.
That is from the KT Olleh website. I'm stumped why its not coming on.

You can try switching to wcdma preferred in the hidden info settings. See if that works

hidden settings?
I can't get to the hidden settings menu on ICS with the 4636 trick. I can't find anyway into that menu for the ICS OTA release rom. I really want to try the WCDMA setting too, being as that is what the carrier claims to be on. ... Any other way into that menu on the newer releases? I tried the "Hidden Settings" app but couldn't get into anything.

You can try a different rom, almost all sense 3.6 roms are global based, Newts one XxX is sense 4.1 global, and any CM9 rom is global. I know you can get into the mobile hidden settings on newts rom if you go into suite tools.
Thank you

Hi
OK, I have just received my Atrix, and am having trouble. Basically, it will not connect to mobile data.
It is an AT&T model, unlocked to all networks by the seller. I can make & receive phone calls (now I've found how to skip Blur setup), and have entered the correct APN settings, but it refuses to connect.
I am assuming this is a radio/frequency issue. Are there any radio images that can be used to correct this, so I can use this in the UK? On the Defy there is an app called "baseband switcher" which can install the correct info for you.
---------- SOLVED ----------
Just a quick edit to show this issue is fixed.
I am unsure what fixed it. I have performed most of my testing at work, and found that the issue here was a problem with my provider (they were doing maintenance in the area). But it didn't work at home either, initially. I have flashed several radios, modified pppd-ril.options and replaced libmoto-ril.so. Something out of these has fixed my issue.
If I get chance I will remove some of the mods to see if the issue comes back, and post the results here for anyone else who comes accross this problem.
By the way, this has only fixed the issue of no 2G data. 3G data on 900MHz is still unavailable, as far as I am aware. If anyone knows how to check which frequency is currently being used, I can check this further, otherwise I think this is the best we can hope for at the moment.
Hi
Does anyone know the answer to this?
Can I flash a UK/European radio on this (AT&T) Atrix? I have installed Aura, will this make a difference? Are there "fruitcakes" available for the radio, or must I use and SBF?
I have tried to research this through the site (and google) but I can find no definitive answers. All I think I need is a 900/1800/2100 baseband. I definately have the correct APN settings, and mobile data has worked while I've been out and about, but it is very patchy and I am not getting mobile data in places I know have good signal, and am noit getting 3G in places I used to.
I had this same problem on my Defy, and this was easily fixed using the Defy Baseband Switcher app. Selecting a UK baseband fixed all my issues then, so I expect the same now.
Please help
Thanks

Hello
I'm interested at the answer too. I have bought AT&T version from US and imported it to Europe.
The problem for me is that I need Atrix to use 900MHz 3G. I can use 2100MHz 3G but when the 3G is build using 900MHz, Atrix is not able to use 3G, only Edge or GPRS. I have other phone with 900MHz/2100MHz support which I use to verify existence of 3G service.
I have tried with radio version N_01.95.00R which did not work with 900MHz. Just couple of minutes ago I installed N_01.100.00R (CWM zip), haven't yet tested it with 900MHz.
I have seen reports from users owning Atrix, that they have been able to activate 900MHz 3G support by installing N_01.95.00R or N_01.97.00R.
If N_01.100.00R does not work, I''ll try N_01.97.00R and after that I don't know what to try.

Thanks, that's more info than I've managed to glean from my research.
I'm also on a network which uses 900MHz for 3G (in some areas at least) so this may be my problem. I'm currently on baseband N_01.77.15P. If you wouldn't mind letting me know once you've checked I'll wait for you to report back about
N_01.100.00R.
By the way, does anyone know if there are these "fruitcake" things for radios, or do they have to be flashed from SBFs?
Just FYI, I got impatient, and work has been quiet, so I tried myself.
1.100.0R and 1.95.0R made no difference for me.
I also tried an international 1.97.0R SBF, and this gave me an error while flashing... was quite worried till I pulled the battery and it booted back up fine.
I just want to add, here, that if I manage to get 3G reception I can use it fine. However I don't get 3G in very many places, including ones which worked perfectly (full signal) on my Defy. Also, as soon as it tips over to 2G in these places, it shows the "G" icon but does not allow any traffic.
As I said, this is exact problem I had with my Defy when a ROM I installed changed the baseband to a US one from a UK one, and it was fixed as soon as I changed back. So "all" I need is a baseband which will install on my (BL unlocked, SIM unlocked, Rooted and ROMed) AT&T Atrix which is compatible with (O2) UK bands (specifically 900MHz for 2G & 3G and 2100MHZ for 3G only).
I tested with N_01.100.00R, but no success.
I don't know anything about "fruitcake", but I have installed new radio versions either from sbf with RSD Lite or from zip-files using CWM.
Where to find radio versions made for Europe/international use?
I have an AT&T Atrix in Germany, everything works out ok. Try following:
Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1163009 and flash the radio from there.
In your stock dialer, dial *#*#4636#*#*, choose Phone Information, Set preferred network type to "GSM auto (PRL)" or "GSM Only".
Before all that though, make sure you have the correct APN, it'd be a bummer if it's that simple..

Hi
Thanks. I have checked the APN settings so many times now that I could probably recite them by heart I have also installed an app which sets up the correct settings for me, so I'm pretty sure they are right. From *#*#4636#*#* network type is set to GSM auto, and "GSM disconnects" says "fail because Unknown Data Error".
Which radio from that post, BTW? The AT&T .91 one?

Yep, that's the one I'm using.
Try flashing that and see how it goes. Though data should work regardless older / newer radio; have you tried calling your provider?
Nup
Flashed the linked radio, and it made no difference.
By the way, I finally found where the "Select band" item was, it's in the 4636 menu, phone info, menu key, select band. This shows only USA.
I think I may try flashing the French fruitcake located here just to see if that fixes it. Orange France uses the same frequencies. I know it's stock, but I can try flashing a custom ROM after. I just want to get this thing working now...
Also, there is a post here which seems to suggest a method to fix it, but I am at work and it's too much hassle to set all that up here.
I tried to flash couple of international sbf's but none installed, sec_exception febe 35,35 was the problem.
Then I tried to install Bell radio from bellradiolatest.zip using CMW. Now I have version n_01.77.30s.qn, haven't tried 900MHz yet but 2100MHZ is working as it was with other versions.
4636 menu shows me also the USA Band, which is only option, cannot be changed.
After I have verified that this n_01.77.30s.qn ain't working, I'll try AT&T .91.
I'm using Cyanogenmod and prefer it, I just can't stand the original firmware or something based on original one. For example, week starts from Monday here, in CM I can choose it but US based firmwares week starts from sunday and cannot be changed.
I can confirm that flashing a French fruitcake doesn't work, results in flashing red led. Restored from backup, back to square one.
The Atrix from AT&T does not have the ability to utilise the WCDMA network on the 900Mhz band.

Never heard of a carrier disabling a network they already have, but why would you be worried?
That sucks!
Anyway, the reason I was wonderring is that I cannot get a 2G data connection either. I have been told now on another forum that this is not the case, and I should be getting 2G data. So it seems the phone cannot even make a 2G data connection at 900MHZ (this network only does 2G at 900MHz, 3G is at 900/2100MHz). In *#*#4636#*#* it shows DcAtivatingState for ages, then goes inactive with "Unknown Data Error".
When I can get a 3G signal it is fine.

Could you type the whole thing out? Also, check your apn settings
I am absolutely certain the APN settings are correct, I have checked them over and over, set them using an app, and verified against my previous phone as well.
State: Dc ActivatingState is connecting to [ApnSettingV2] giffgaff data, 1357, 23410, giffgaff.comm , , , , , -1, true, -1, 0, 0, *, IP, IP

I have also just had a reply on my operator's forum from another user who says he had exactly the same problem with this phone.
Now it's just gone into DcActiveState, and says the connection is available. However, nothing gets through. It reckons it's sending and receiving PPP packets, but I can't ping anything, can't nslookup, and obviously can't browse.
Just tried with my old phone, and everything looks the same (when restricted to 2G only), and it operates perfectly. So it is the phone. I checked the APN settings again, before you ask, and they are identical between devices.
I did read something about the stock AT&T firmware blocking other APNs, but that can't be what's happenning here, can it? I mean, it works fine when it can get 3G.
Right, this is getting irritating.
I just flashed a stock 2.3.4 fruit cake to see if that helped. I added my APN settings, and couldn't connect. Set it in WCDMA only and it got a weak HSPA signal, went through Blur setup. Tried again on GSM auto and no joy, even when it hits DcActivatedState nothing gets through.
I am absolutely certain it is not the APN settings. I am sure they would not even allow 3G access if they were wrong, but with a 3G signal it works perfectly. But on GPRS (in several places, miles apart so on different cells) I can get not data connection.
I currently am in London, so I used radicomm to unlock my international bands (thanks to help from cellzealot and jimmydafish.) This is pre-ICS OTA. I have 2 Razrs, and both are now working for voice and text using the O2 network in the UK.
My problem is that on one of the phones the radio will not pick up 3G data bands. And 2G is painfully slow (1000X slower than 3G.) The second phone works perfectly on 3G. I know it is a phone/radio issue, since when I swap sim cards the issue remains. Both phones worked fine in the US on 3G and LTE prior to he trip.
There must be some setting I changed that turned off the 3G in the first phone. I remember when I first put in the UK sim it picked up 3g, but by the time I finished messing with settings to get up to work it only picked up 2G. Again, the second phone I set up (once I knew what I was doing) works great with 3G.
I have checked:
1. Ensuring I have the correct APN.
2. Operator selection in Mobile Network Settings (shows only 2G options on bad phone, 2G and 3G options on good phone.)
3. Radiocomm 1877 setting is correct.
4. Radiocomm 850 and 441 are correct.
5. Preferred Network st at either WCDMA preferred or GSM only.
I think my initial problem stemmed from "Phone Info's" menu: Select Radio Band" where I selected USA GSM bands. That was a mistake, and cut off all data entirely until I reset Radiocomm 441 to 00FFFF, which got me back to 2G but not 3G.
Any suggestions, or should I just wait until I get back home and apply the ICS OTA, which will hopefully reset the radio?
I would recommend a factory reset/wipe, which will reset any changes made in the Phone Info menu. If that doesn't fix it, then reflashing the stock firmware and radio image will absolutely reset the device completely to a default configutation.
Then you can start over and reapply the NV edits and it should work like your second phone with all bands.
Thanks, I definitely appreciate all your help. I'm thinking that my next step is to try to side load ICS and see if that fixes the radio at the same time. If not I can use Matt's utility to go back to stock GB. I do hear a lot of people struggling with side loading and I'm not sure if the changes I've made could cause the OTA to fail.
I was just checking first to see if there might be a simpler solution such as fixing or flashing the radio... but it sounds like there is not.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk
Factory reset/data wipe is much simpler than any other option and is a recommended part of either flashing back to stock or running the update to ICS.
The changes you have made to the radio NVM via either RadioComm or the Phone Info menu will have no effect on your ability to update to the leaked ICS builds and any changes will be overwritten by the update when the radios are updated.
The ICS update will, in fact, have the same string in 1877 that we manually edited for GB. That's how it works and enables the full function of the radio.
I am from Winnipeg Manitoba, and am using Nocturnal 2.0.4 Jellybean 4.2.2 (not using AT&T Icons) was wondering what ROMs you all are using and if you are getting LTE to show up in you notification bar, currently the best I get is H+ I know when I was running cleanrom a long time ago and I was in Vancouver it worked (that ROM had the AT&T fancy icons...) but tethering didn't work for me...

Moved out of development and into Q&A, here's why
Please heed Sarge's advice.
Ok, I suddenly have lost LTE data and cannot make phone calls.
I have pulled the sim card and reinserted but I keep getting a popup window asking me if I want to connect to Global and not CDMA/LTE. I change the request to LTE and make sure setting is there.
It won't connect to 4G. and keeps asking about Global.
I am rooted and ROM'd with unlocked bootloader and have even tried my trusty stock image -- no go!
All of my ROM backups have the same issue and I can't place a call.
:crying:
Yes, my bill is paid and in order.
What can I do? I doubt VZW will help me since it is a Dev Edition and I purchased through Samsung, not them.
APN settings seem to be blacked out so I cant change. It does allow me to delete it.
HELP! I need to place calls.

If it persists across different roms it sounds like either faulty sim or for some reason your modem or kernel is corrupted. I would re flash modem. After that try to re flash kernel. If that fails a new sim might be in order. I presume you have checked with another phone to be sure it's not a VZW problem.

Thanks! I will try the modem route first and then the kernel route.
Although each ROM has a different kernel, so I don't think that is the issue.
Yes, no problem with VZW as the other half's phone is working.
Data works on LTE for Internet but can't place any calls and all received calls do not ring phone: goes into VM.
Edit: at Verizon and not SIM card. New SIM card gives me voice but no data. Says voice roaming.
Ok, here is the problem after 2 new sim cards: Data is showing as "CDMA RX1TT" I cannot get data or voice now. Says voice is roaming with a triangle.
Is this a software setting or hardware setting? Something has changed on my phone, despite changing from stock to ROMS, etc.
VZW store is at a loss and though the rep was good, suggested I call top tier VZW support tomorrow and made notes in my account.
So, any clues as to what could cause this? Is my Dev phone now shot?
If it truly is an APN issue i can post my APN from my Verizon SGS4 and you can use an app called APN backup and restore to push it to your phone or push it manually using root explore and then set permissions. Let me know.

You might have a corrupted EFS partition in which case you would need to restore a good copy of that. Some of the time its in LTE/GSM mode for whatever reason in which case you would need to change it to LTE/CDMA mode.

I had a "DUH" moment when I was in a similar situation. I had forgotten that I had enabled the hidden menu on my DevS4 and changed the "band" preferences to try and force the AWS band. This took the phone off of "automatic band connecting" and I was unable to connect to data. Once I remembered what I had done, I simply when back into the menu and switched from forcing AWS band back to "automatic". Just my 2 cents.

Hello Everyone! Sorry for the delay. Actually, this is what kinda occurred, as the 1/15 build of OctOs ROM which I flashed had an issue and it was posted on Facebook, which I didn't see until Saturday. It changed the CDMA subscription to NV and so even with stock or other ROM backup images, it carried over and didn't re-adjust. I had to reinstall that bad ROM, make some changes per OctOs instructions and BAM: all is well.
As you know on stock rooted, one cannot change certain settings and they were greyed out.
At least I got another backup sim card from VZW should I ever need to activate an older phone.
Thanks for everyone's help!
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

I have come to use xposed module Intelli3G to auto select the network. It has to be set to you liking of network chose.
I'm trying to do this too. But the roms I have tried so far won't let me get into *#*#4636#*#*. What Rom did you use to get into it?

I am using NuSenseSIX-KitKat Rom. If you cant get into the Settings, Download Network App from the app Store.

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.
