Help with 800-850mhz frequency - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I messed around with the 0001.prl and it was adviced with it to change the mode using some code in the dialer like *#*#89983## something im not sure, well i messed it up. I get x service under sprint and only 1X roaming. I need help on restoring the settings I changed.

The 00001 PRL shouldn't be used anymore as Sprint is canceling people's service because of it. There are several threads in the general section that should be able to help you update to the latest PRLs though.

My prl is not the problem..im on 24006 now, i need to restore my regular service.

The more information you can post about what you did or which guide you followed the easier it will be to help you, but from what you've said so far it sounds like you changed the preferred network.
If so you should be able to fix it by dialing *#*#4636#*#* -> Select 'Phone Information' -> 'Set prefered network type:' to CDMA + LTE/EvDo auto

i cant even remember what it was, and the thread I got it from Im pretty sure was deleted.

You messed up the auto frequency. I did it before and there is a way to fix it but I do not remember how.

You can try ##SCRTN#
That resets and reconfigures all network related settings. You'll just need to know your MSL.

Not to be confused with ##RTN# which hard resets a phone.

By the way, sprints policy is to repair a rooted phone just as if it were not rooted. If any employee ever tries to argue about that tell them to check their methods and procedures.

[q] please help! Droid dna on straight talk!

I been doing alot of research before switching to straight talk with my dna
straight now offers lte with the att gsm sim
i activated my account yesterday but all i seem to get is att edge wihich is like 2g super slow!! I have internet but i cant download or send mms! And the straight talk reps are retarded!
Ive seen others post saying that they are getting hspa+ and fast 3g
i have the default apn settings that they told me to enter in and told me that there is no problem with the coverage in my area..
So my question is my dna in gsm unlocked how come im not getting the data speeds that i want??
Anybody has any new apns to share?
Please help!! Thanks!!! I been looking everywhere for answers and seem to not get any!
You wont be able to get At&T Lte with a Droid Dna,you will be limited to HSPA+ which is kinda like 3.5G LOL.
Did you change the APN settings, that is usually what you need to do.
I do not want to post links to other forums,so just Google " Straight Talk HSPA+ settings At&t " and you will find your answers.

If it's not the APN It's probably the radio mode. If it's not set to WCDMA you will only get edge over GSM. In viper Rom there is access to this menu in tweaks. If you're on stock sense the dialer code is *#*#4636#*#* That code isn't guaranteed to work but if the radio mode is on GSM ONLY then you won't get HSPA+ The reason the DNA doesn't receive Straight Talk LTE is because it doesn't support the band. An at&t unlocked lte phone would though like an HTC One or what have you.
Your APN should be "tfdata"

yes ive changed the apn numerous times looking up different apn to input but still nothing still stuck on edge!
ive seen videos of dna getting HSPA i dont know how i dont have it im in Grand Rapids, MI where coverage is superb for LTE HSPA so idk what else is there to do
I just bought Att GoPhone Just now prepaid and they said LTE too and i activated and im still on Edge network! so im like clue less now -_-
Hmm,I dont know honestly.
I have a Droid Dna on at&t and soon as I popped in my sim and changed the settings to GSM I was getting HSPA speeds.
Are you running stock or on some custom rom?
When you go to settings ,go to Call,Preferred Network,make sure GSM/UMTS is checked,press it and make sure GSM/UMTS DUAL is checked.

No MMS with stock messaging app is a known issue for the majority of Straight Talk users. Straight Talk has never addressed the issue. The only app that has ever worked for me is GOSMS.

Weird I don't have any issues with the mms in stock app. I'm a little compulsive when setting up me service I always make sure the apn settings are set to gsm/WCDMA AUTO. Then go to my stock app and clear the data and cache, then go into the app itself then settings an set under mms the max size, then enable auto relieve and enable retrieve when roaming. Then boot to recovery clear delvik and cache then reboot... Hope any of that helps.

What's your APN setting so I can try. I've tried every one posted in online forums and it has never worked for me and a large number of other people.
They are the same as what St gives you but I do leave the proxy and port blank... And I'm on a viper Rom.

The MMS proxy and port or the APN proxy and port. There are seperate fields for all 4. Here's what I have
APN : tfdata

PORT: BLANK

Tried deleting mms proxy and port, nothing. Messages never go through it just hangs with the little htc mms icon with the clock. If someone sends me one it shows up but says download but pushing it never downloads the message. I can see my data signal as active when I'm trying to send but it never goes through. Gosms always downloads them.

No Data Connection

Hi guys,
1/8gb 2100 UK model
Omate Truesmart 20140328.182336 v2.0
No changes to stock
No pc used.
I've turned everything on in sim management. Data connection is saying Vodafone UK, 3G is enabled, network mode is auto, APN set to wap. vodaphone . The only thing i can spot is in Sim information, default settings are all greyed out apart from data connection which is bright white and states vodafone uk. Im receiving texts and voice calls, network bars are showing on status bar but no E, G, 3G. Can someone help please as ive tried two different sim cards with no results. Cheers
Double check vodaphone that the APN settings are correct. AT&T users are having an issue where it APN says AT&T but the APN settings themselves are wrong.
Sorry I don't have a patch ready.

Same here, I've been through a hard reset, rewriting all the APN settings, copying them over from another Vodafone device, and the wretched data connection icon just has an inscrutable tiny blue blob on it. SMS works, but it's a paperweight if it has to be tethered all the time.

Think we need @mcteague to state exactly what settings he has entered. He did send me a PM earlier so thank you however even after trying the settings listed under the link he sent (they were slightly different to other settings I found on Vodafones website) it still would not work.
Exact steps and details would be greatly appreciated and also if you have flashed any patches etc....

Carrier not saying Sprint..

In the new Hangouts update, it says what carrier you're on, in a small message under the text box. Instead of saying Sprint, it says Chameleon. When I go into Settings > About Phone > Network and under Network, it says LG, usually it says Sprint.. Can anyone help me get it back to Sprint, please? All help is appreciated. May I add I noticed this after doing a factory reset using the LG Flash Tool.

Are you missing WiFi Calling, Sprint Boot Animations and other Sprint bloat? If so try using ##RTN# (need your MSL for it) in the dialer (I forgot if this wipes data, it may so backup your internal/external storage just in case)
If you have all of those try ##SCRTN# or ##UPDATE#

Having the exact same issue after flashing with LG Flash Tool. It isn't a functionality problem, cell and data still work. Have you resovled this issue?
I also tried dial-er code above, ##SCRTN# & ##UPDATE#, as fergie716 suggested. Neither of which changed the network or brand now listed.
anyone have any idea why this happens or what it is?
Did you make an EFS backup? You can try and restore that. To make sure it isn't messed up. Info is in the FAQ.
If you didn't, don't do it now as it may be corrupt.
Xposed, and modifying the build.prop and cause that issue also.

Try ##UPDATE# in the dialer. Choose the corresponding numbers.
It'll do a hands free activation and should fix your problem.

I'm a Boost Mobile Rep that's the code to reactivate the device to make sure that it's not the problem and when you do it make sure your connected to Wifi, once you are you can use the code again and it should work provided that you are in the service area.

LG Tribute HD (LS676) SIM/Carrier Unlock Discussion - No Root

Attempt to find a way to carrier unlock the LG Tribute HD (LG LS676) without having root access.
One consideration, GCPro Key might operate by generating a 'pseudo key' which tricks the phone into believing the system has been unlocked by the carrier. This is deployed to the phone via adb. If this is the case, it would not require root.
Second consideration, begging and pleading with Sprint to perform OTA unlocks. This doesn't seem likely.
So, just as an update, I was able to get the phone to recognize a FreedomPop global sim, but without being able to edit the APN settings, it is unusable.
Have you tried to change the APN by dialing ##3282# to get the Data settings menu? It requires entering the MSL to edit.
I looked at the APN settings, but even with the MSL given to me by Ting it didn't seem to want to let me edit any.
I just unlocked my friend's with gsmzambia. Everything working perfectly.
this gsmzambia is bot

It was activated on Ting, and they were able to perform an International SIM unlock.
Since APN's cannot be edited, it isn't worth very much, though

Why can't anyone edit apn settings? I have a **** boost mobile LG tribute had (LS 676), and boost provided me my msl code, so I CAN edit apn settings. What kind of screenshots can I post to help? If love to have root on this device.... Not a bad daily driver, but root for make it that much better. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide...

Why can't anyone edit apn settings? I have a **** boost mobile LG tribute had (LS 676), and boost provided me my msl code, so I CAN edit apn settings. What kind of screenshots can I post to help? If love to have root on this device.... Not a bad daily driver, but root for make it that much better. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide... And come on, gotta give it up to the devs, who have lost so much sleep...and probably a little hair, working on this!?

I did - I can see the menus and settings and set LTE etc - but APNs are read-only. You can open to see but can't create any.

Can you post a screenshot of the APN settings Add/Edit view as a starter? I have MSL code too but unable to add/edit APN.
It took me a bit of time to figure out what is being suggested above related to following the G5 procedure to unlock the Tribute HD, so I am posting here to make it easier for everyone else trying to unlock this device.
For starters, you don't need the Service Programming Code (SPC), you don't need it rooted, nor do you need to have it internationally unlocked by a Sprint MVNO -- I unlocked two, and the second was pretty much straight out of the box (the first was internationally unlocked first).
Follow the instructions here for the G5 -- Same Hidden Menu app APK and same first 8 steps up to the point where you reboot and are about to add the new APN:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-lg-g5/how-to/guide-gsm-unlock-sprint-lg-g5-t3574819
Then, to add the new APN, which is where I struggled to find the solution and the "trick" to creating the new APN was recently posted towards the end of the G5 thread. To create the APN, use the Hidden Menu app and do the following:
1) Select IOT (GDG2),
2) Select LTE Setting
3) Select APN Setting
4) Now press and hold the multi-function key (the little square task-switcher on the lower right of the screen) and select NEW APN
5) Fill in at least the following 3 fields:
NAME -- Call it anything you want
APN -- Enter the APN for your carrier
APN Type -- Enter "default,dun" (without the quotes).
Note: If you have other APN entries that you know, please add them too -- the above 3 items will get at least the web working (and perhaps hotspot), but you may need additional carrier-specific settings for SMS/MMS/etc..
When you are finished entering the APN entries, press and hold the multifunction (little square) key again and select SAVE.
Make sure your new APN has the radio button selected on the right side of the screen, and then back your way out to the main menu and close the Hidden Menu app. Close the Hidden Menu app with the task switcher.
Your device should now show either 3G or LTE for your GSM-based carrier. The web should work, as should calling (admittedly I used FreedomPop SIMs for my testing so I was only able to test 3G with the Global SIM and LTE with the AT&T LTE SIM, but I didn't test calling/texting/MMS with a US-based SIM myself). If something isn't working, I'll borrow a T-Mo postpaid SIM from another phone and try to provide further assistance.
Kudos and thanks to all of those who figured out the G5 -- I am merely outlining the steps they developed here for the Tribute HD.
