LTE Crashing OS
I did some searching on this forum and did not find anything related to this.
I live in Minnesota and Sprint announced at the beginning of this month they are working on LTE in my area Today when I got into work, my phone crashed while I was listening to music. It would boot all of the way to the home screen and then proceed to crash again. This happened continuously. I noticed that it would crash once acquiring a data connection and this is when I realized it was connecting to 4G (the first time I've seen 4G!). Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is it because I haven't upgraded my software since I've been waiting for a way to s-off since HBOOT 1.15? (Yes I know it is possible now, just been lazy and haven't gotten around to it yet ).
I temporarily fixed the issue by switching to cdma only.
Thanks!

my phone just developed this problem this morning. the phone is rooted running twisted sense 1.5 i had the newest radio update installed but was having problems with it randomly restarting so i reverted back to the factory radio version. after going back to the factory radio the phone was working fine until this morning, it will connect to the 1xRTT network but not 3g or lte. i have tried restoring to an earlier backup and i've tried installing the new radio as well without any results. please tell me there is a way to fix this i just bought the phone over the weekend and really dont want to have to go back and buy a new phone this soon.
thanks.
there are a ton of posts about this.
verizon has an outage.
well **** i guess im an idiot. this is the first time today i got online so im abit out of the loop. thanks man
I had the same issue. After using the search button I found this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1052727 it fixed the issue and I am back on 3G.
I have never before seen anything like this, and honestly it is confusing me to no end.
So here is the problem, I was having a issue a few weeks back where my router kept crashing, after days of trying to figure it out i turned off my phone and wala the problem seized to exist so i assumed it was a problem with the wifi firmware i had on my phone. so until last night i have kept my phone off.
I have since changed routers, and my entire network configuration
I was on Hboot 1.4 s-off with a JB rom.
So last night I flashed back to 1.13 RUU GB sprint stock, then Flashed the stock ICS RUU
when I awoke this morning my whole network was down. and I found out once again it was my phones fault, and from my routers end my phone had garbed 10 IP address's, I'm to the point where I have no clue what to do, because I need my phone, but i need my network working too. any Ideas on whats wrong or how to fix it?

Have you tried flashing a new rom+kernnel?
yes 3 different roms, 3 different kernels
your problem may be hardware then, did the phone fall or got wet? also have u tested id the same problem occurs on someone elses wifi network?
You don't have any network spy apps or torrent apps on, do you?
Starting on Monday night 02/18/13 I was going through settings on my phone and accidentally selected Band 800 not knowing what I was doing. Immediately I noticed I was unable to send sms/mms. Later I discovered unable to send/receive calls. I can receive mms/sms and data works just fine.
The phone shows a 4g connection (cdma+lte) but if I switch to cdma it loses signal.
I have already spent the past 2 days on the phone with Verizon and HTC. Neither of them can figure out how to fix my problem. I have factory reset the phone, replaced SIM card with a new one, updated OS to ICS from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2136273 and updated the radio from the same post.
I used the DEBLOATED Rom Deodexed version: 7.02.605.06 710RD
Phone is rooted with Revolutionary.
After several more factory resets as directed by Verizon and HTC, the initial issue remains.
I rooted my phone in 2011 and have had zero issues til Monday when I selected that band 800 setting.
I am unable to receive a factory replacement due to the phone being quite worn and used. I am not willing to pay Verizon a $100 deductible to replace my phone (pointless having insurance if I have to dish out more $$$ to use it)
Please if anyone out there knows how to fix this...help me.
Go back to what you messed around with and see if you can change it back
If I hadn't already tried that and it worked, I wouldn't have made a thread on here. Verizon and HTC both can't even figure out why it won't work.
The craziest thing is I had switched service over to a different phone (HTC Imagio Windows Mobile) and still had the same issue. That phone isn't rooted or modified in any way. Had never been used til I took it out of the box and had Verizon change service over to it.
It is definitely something with Verizon and HTC phone on their end, not mine.
I am now on a 3 year old Blackberry Curve that isn't having any of the issues either of the HTC phones had.
Hmm strange but i remember back in september i flashed Newts sense 4.0 rom and it was too laggy so i went back to stock 2.1 and my data was out it had the 4g icon and everything and but it would timeout and my texts would come in late even though i tried many radios and even called verizon but no luck. In the end I went to the Rom Roll up thread and flashed the Froyo Ruu from Hboot and let it do its thing then i upgraded it all the way to Gingerbread rooted again with revolutionary and that fixed my radio problem might fix yours too im not sure just sharing my experience
unlocked, on the htc 3d, 2.95... I could connect to wifi but it was really slow where my GF's phone with the same version, but truley stock would DL at 15mbs while mine only .3mbs.
I did the wire rick for s-off and I flashed a 1.13 ruu signed. Then I ran the software updates to get me to 2.95. I can now DL at 2mbs, but that is no where near the 15mbs she can DL..
Any thoughts on this? Sorry for the lack of detail, just ask if yall need more
Thanks

any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks
now I am where i started before the s-off. Can hardly connect to wifi, and when I can, there is no connection to the internet, just a network error.
I found this link, seems that it might improve something. Any one try this?
http://androidforums.com/evo-v-4g-all-things-root/595109-fix-everything-turning-your-phone-into-evo-3d-thread.html
does the wifi use the radio? Seems like a silly question
Okay,
Seems that no one has replied. Maybe this bit of information will help.
I can obtain the desirable speeds if I am right next to the wifi router. If I am 10 - 15 feet away the speed greatly reduces, while my GF phone that is a true stock phone, has the same speed.
Any ideas? I am losing faith in this forum...
NOTE:
I did reset my router, leading to more reliable connections ( to literaly connect to the wifi or not )
after the reset my GF phone is still fine, mine has i geuss 'bad signal' ... i can connect but it is slow if I am not right next to it. while my GF phone is fine being far away from wifi...
Any ideas?
I am on the out of box firmware for the M9. I have gotten TWRP, Root and Badboys rom on my phone but am experiencing a very unusual problem of random Handsfree activations on any rom. I am aware that going onto the latest RUU is very difficult atm due to no S-Off, but I cannot find a solution as to why I am getting this happening. It causes the phone to go through half a set up phase and does a PRL and Profile Update. Are there any fixes or should I get a replacement for my M9? This problem really blows since I did the HTC Champions for my upgrade.
I was told switching sims might help but the new m9 uses a 63.05 sim versus the m8's 53.05 sim card and the site says they are incompatible.
I don't think it's that difficult, there are threads with the RUU and completely stock (x.xx.xxx.15) operating systems available if you need/want to start over from scratch. Assuming your out of the box software was 1.32.651.15

My only other concern was if I updated to the latest firmware, if it would stop the constant sprint updates on a custom rom.
I Would try latest firmware first.
OMJ thinks all you need is to relock for RUU to work.
The RUU has the latest OTA.
I think OMJ mentioned something about Extra HFA's (before OTA).
Let us know how it goes.
it's a known bug on 1.32.651.17...it's fixed on 1.32.651.30...I was having the same issue, very irritating...especially when I was trying to s-off & HFA kept interrupting
I am still facing this problem even after the update. I'm running the latest bad boys rom on the most up to date firmware and rom even with s off I'm still getting this hfa problem
Mine doesn't even seem to want to activate at all. I updated to 1.32.651.30 and it will just sit there at HFA and fail eventually. This is very frustrating because I opened up a phone number to try it out and can't even use this thing. I actually work in wireless and in fact every M9 I've sold (only a few) had a HFA problem which I thought was Sprint's fault, but I guess not. I don't even want to sell them at this point, because when I sell the S6 they activate in like 10 seconds. Ugh.
I'm Wondering if it's a sim issue. Or if getting an international rom would help.
Just got off the phone with tech support and there is now a workaround for this issue until they fix it. What you need to do is go into Mobile Data settings and change the mode to 'CDMA Only' and let it activate, then set it back to 'LTE/CDMA'. Worked for me.
