Stuck on 3G - HTC Rezound

Recently replaced my Rezound with a used one; S-Off'd, flashed Amon Ra and CM10.1. Noticed this morning I was only getting 3G. Thought it might have been a software issue so I toggled network modes a few times, it didn't help. Wiped and reflashed, didn't help. Wiped again and installed a stock based ROM, didn't help. Flashed the new firmware and radios (again), didn't help. I know for a fact that LTE does work on this phone; I activated it before I started the software mods. 4G is working fine on my old Rezound (and my government issued Razr M) so it's not a network issue.
Help would be greatly appreciated...I'm about to call Verizon on my wife's phone and make sure that this one was properly activated (I punched in the ESN on Verizon's site).

Make sure LTE/CDMA is selected in network options. If they are. You probably need to flash stock recovery and do a factory reset inside of HBOOT.

No service Problem

okay so last night i was flashing Roms trying them out to see witch one would be my daily driver
but the problems happened when i flashed MIUI. Then I flashed newts one xxx and i had the roaming triangle on my signal bar

I already went to settings > mobile network > and the setting in there and still no luck
im s on
HTC unlocked
any help thanks
is ur radio up2date ?
did u flash the ruu of global rom ?
No i havent how would i go about doing that
what is your hboot?
Option1:
Flash the stock recovery. Then try a factory reset inside of HBOOT.
Link to stock recovery: http://goo.im/devs/Flyhalf205/Rezound/Recovery/stock_recovery_signed.img
Option2:
Go into mobile network settings and change to Global Mode. If already on global. Change to CDMA/LTE auto
EDIT
I posted in the wrong thread
Thank you all for your help
Flyhalf205 I flashed the recovery and factory reset and that worked. Thanks a lot

It's many months since Flyhalf's post, but I wanted to report that after getting a replacement unit, I also ran S-OFF and htc dev unlock and pushed the radios forward to the latest and found that I could no longer make or receive calls, send or receive texts, although data/4G/wifi and BT were all functioning nominally. Tech support couldn't solve it; a new SIM card couldn't change things, and when I finally rolled all the way back to the last GB RUU, and FINALLY did a factory reset WITHIN HBOOT that cleared the problem. I then let the handset download the OTA's one by one to bring it up to speed.
I'm putting this here because I didn't find anything else for "no phone service" or "lost cell service" and was about to open a new thread in troubleshooting when I found this thread, followed Flyhalf's advice and I am now fully operational again. Hppefully someone else doing a similar search will see this post.

I wanted to 2nd this post with a small addition. After S-offing my rezound and flashing the latest CarbonRom, I ended up losing 4G. I mistakenly though it was related to gaining s-off and performing a full factory restore and update. I was left with a phone that did everything but receive 4G signal. I had reliable 3G data and could make/receive calls/SMS/MMS. I only lost 4G data. After finding this post, thank you hgoldner for talking it up, I flashed the ICS RUU and then performed a factory reset. I probably could have just flashed the stock recovery but the Goo.im servers appear to be acting up and I couldn't download it from Flyhalf's link above. For those of you with signal issues following a custom ROM flash, I'd definitely suggest giving this a try.

[Q] Help, phone won't switch to 4G, stays on 3G data now after ROM swapping...

Hey guys! So I moonshined and got S-OFF on my phone. I first backed up my factory ROM after I wiped all the data so I would have it to go back to in the future if needed, this was done through clockwork mod. So I first tried using the NOS M7 ROM, didn't like that as the home screen seemed too Window's 8 phone like to me. I then tried the CyanogenMod 10.1, I noticed that my phone was only getting 3G data at this point. I was using my wife's new Galaxy S4 that was getting 4G as a comparison to mine. We were traveling through town so it's not a tower based issue, as her phone showed 4G.
I then tried to switch to viperDNA1.3.1 and I had all sort of issues with it. Heck this morning it would not even show me my alarm notification when it was going off to shut the phone up. I had to power it off to silence it. It even stopped showing the notification bar on the top of the screen and I couldn't even do the drag down thing to see notifications and settings.
So today at work I downloaded RageDNA to see if an optimized stock app would work for me, no change..... I even formatted my sdcard to blank it and the did an adb push to transfer the ROM.zip back to my phone.
SO.... between each app I would launch into ClockWorkMod and 1. wipe dalvik cache. 2. format system. 3. wipe data/factory reset. 4. choose the zip from the sdcard (haha like we really have a true sdcard) and wait for the install and then launch into the phone and do the basic setup to get the ROM working.
HELP!!!! (me crying) I am afraid I did something to my phone during the flashing that jacked up the radio causing 4G to be broken. Is there something else you need to know from me to help me out, please let me know!
**********UPDATE**********
I double checked all my phones settings with a coworker who also has a DNA, but still S-ON. Everything is setup the same for settings on the APN's. I even recreated a duplicate APN that used the specified "LTE" network instead of the one that was defaulted on both of ours "unspecified". No change, even rebooted.
I also restored my CWM backup I did before making any changes to my phone via switching ROM's. The only difference is the fact that their network typeshows "LTE" where my shows "eHRPD". I am going to look into seeing how to reflash the radio to see if something got corrupt.
If it comes down to it I am going to reset my phone back to S-ON and reflash everything that I can find that I can do.
*********Resolution*********
After reflashing my radio, I did not get any 4G signal any more, I know Verizon towers were down for 4G near my work so not sure if they moved over to the towers by my home as I only live 10 minutes from work. So only after being at work for about an hour my 4G signal started on it's own without anything done by me today.
So as I was on the path to trying to take it back to stock I followed the guide that Phaded posted for getting back to S-ON http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2293919. I had a few issues with that, as it turns out my phone was not showing anything about being "LOCKED" after running his first set of commands. So I pressed forward after talking with Phaded on this situation. I had even flashed from my CWM recovery back to the stock recovery (also notice when running the RUU that it flashes the recovery.) I ran the RUU and then got the 158 error then had to flash the HBOOT. After that flash the phone showed "***Tampered*** & ***LOCKED***". I then proceeded to run the RUU and it completed at that point with no issues. Then the last few DOS commands for fastboot and back to Locked and S-On. I updated back from 1.15 up through 2.06. Also doing so that made me realize you have to step from 1.15 to 2.04 and finally 2.06. So far the 4G is still working. I will keep it stock for a few days to ensure no further 4G issues then I will be moonshining again!!
Just a guess, you may have to flash the boot image. If so the directions are in the install directions for Viper

I just tried to restore my CWM files from prior to any ROM changes. So far I have 3G data, but I tend to get 3G more so at my house than 4G, so not sure if anything will change.
I am wondering if the SIM card could have anything to do with this issue as well.... could a ROM have written to the card and caused it to not read the 4G data, or whatever is on there.
I also see that my phone's network seems to be "eHRPD" not sure if this had anything to do with it or not.
I double checked all my phones settings with a coworker who also has a DNA, but still S-ON. Everything is setup the same for settings on the APN's.

U need a new SIM card. 99% sure that's ur problem. They r free from any Verizon store. Give it a shot before u go thru the hassle of going back to s on and stock.

if you download from the play store this app (its free) https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwxLDEwOSwibmV0LmFuZGlyYy5sdGVvbmZvZmYiXQ.. open it and scroll down what does it say under set preferred network type? that screen has more crucial settings then the normal one. if you running viper in viper tweaks its the first option under misc. If you need help ill put up a pick when i get back. someones borrowing mine cause they stepped on their phone lol.
EDIT: also if you are running viper 1.3.1 you should download ind flash after the normal rom the ota update(the one that says 1.3.1 to 1.3.3.

Too funny that you pointed me to that app, I just found another one LTE Settings.
So I tried your app also and they had the exact same data listed. So here's the screen shots I took from my app I pointed to. My phone will connect to 4G only and only if I choose "LTE only" if I move it to something else either by changing it through the OS settings, or changing it through this app, it goes back to getting 3G service. So at least this tells me my phone isn't broken, just some setting is F***ed up somewhere.
I have tried Global and CDMA/LTE settings with it always showing 3G.
yup that's freaking weird lol swing by a VZW store and get a free sim card since yours seems like it might be messed up what happnes if you flash something like crpalmers kernel though? your boot image might just be all screwed up. his latest version is June 24th.

Yeah weird! I just used the DNA Toolkit v1.0.5, I flashed the 2.06 radio and after it rebooted and what not, I went outside (as I have bad service inside this house) and now 4G won't even connect. Not sure if it's the towers, as the one by work went out around noon today.
So as it's a kernal and not a ROM how do I do that, just the same install from zip file in CWM? Do I need any certain ROM for it? As right now I have the factory one that I backed up with CWM when I did S-OFF. (it was a blank fresh factory reset)

if your using viper it supports only 2.04 as a base for its radios i believe. like I said try flashing crpalmer's one this one http://d-h.st/hu7

does the factory restore work like your cwm one i mean?
Click on Mobile Data in your settings, and make your 'preferred' network LTE/CDMA.
I had the very same error with the stock phone, and once I switched it - I started getting 4G almost everywhere.

I don't think you would notice the change instantly. You will see in a few hours, especially if you go somewhere, you will be getting 4G - or if you restart the phone.
Further, what you can do is flash the radio.
Here's the file you need to flash: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B9yd_oFytDSzUjRpLTZhSFEwWnc/edit
That is a Verizon radio, and it works also with other providers.
Use fastboot to flash:

When I was at work, I compared a coworkers DNA and he was getting actual LTE signal. So don't think it's that with the eHRDP thing that I keep seeing. But yeah it looks like a "cheaters way" to get their CDMA hardware to work with LTE. lol
Sorry, I feel like a tard and not really following what you are talking about with the "factory" thing. If you mean in the hboot the factory restore, it takes you to the CWM recovery to do that factory restore. Plus the ROM restore seems to almost go through CWM as well, but does it automatically. I'm going to do a full wipe and set this thing back to factory settings. As when it's broke and not working, best thing to do is start fresh.

okay if you do it from hboot it wont do anything cause now cwm will stop that from running but that is the same as running factory reset in cwm, thats not what im talking about though when you first moonshined then booted cwm after getting it, did you run a backup of your factory(stock) ROM? if so it would be in sdcard/clockworkmod/backups it also would have been about 1.5-2GB's. you could also try the radio.img amer is taking about as well, that you need to flash with adb though in fastboot as he stated.

[Q] 4G is lost after flashing 4.3...

Last week I was using NOS M7 v3.0.6 and everything was working great but me being a flasaholic, I wanted to try out a 4.3 Rom so I flashed SlimBean DLX 4.3 and it would not connect to 4G. I used it for about 2 days and tried changing the preferred network and rebooting but still didn't work. I then did a full wipe and flashed ParanoidAndroid v3.99 and still no 4G. I then tried crDroid AOSP after a full wipe and still same results. I then decided to go back to NOS to see if it would correct it but it didn't so I even went to Tranquil's 4.1.2 Rom which is what I am on now but still have no 4G. Anyone have any suggestions for me?
I am considering taking it back to 100% stock and see if it works.
Also...my wife's rooted Galaxy SIII connects to 4G in the same area with no problems.
RUU

Its a known issue on some 4.3 roms, you must do a RUU but do not forget after Ruu a Phone Reset is obligated , so all your
factory original settings will be back.

I had this issue before, check out my thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2338810
No issues since.
I'm running the NOS GPE 1.0.3 rom, and ever since, I too have only been able to connect to 3G...until like 20 minutes before this post. This worked for me.
Go to phone, dial *#*#4636#*#* and go to Phone settings, scroll down and set the preferred type to LTE/CDMA. Go to settings, "More" under network settings, go to mobile networks, turn off data and change the CDMA subscription to NV, then restart your phone. After I did that, after unlocking my phone, it tried to activate but it was stuck roaming, from there I pulled down the notifications and went to settings from there and went back to Mobile Networks and changed the network type to CDMA/LTE/EvDo and restarted my phone again, now LTE works perfectly Only thing is, it seems to always be on 3 bars of LTE, no matter what, but I'm not complaining, its much faster than 3G.
Ok, thanks for all the help. After flashing the RUU and upgrading to 2.06 it still wouldn't connect to 4g. I then went to a Verizon store and swapped out the sim card and it still didn't work but after about an hour it all of the sudden it connected to 4g. So, I guess it was the sim card and it just took a while to connect. Thanks again.

So I reflashed, no dice. So I tried another sense rom a stock one rooted nothing. I relocked my bloader and flashed old hboot per .torrent thread and radio and recovery, I then factory reset from stock recovery per a post I saw by .torrent waited and nothing! My verizon sim works fine in my nexus and galaxy S3 but dna just roams. I tried swithching off and on airplane mode tried switching it to cdma everytime and just get the little triangle that mean its trying to roam. ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED!

Using latest NuSenseSIX-MAX ROM, Won't stay connected to LTE

After trying several ROMs that would not connect to VZWs LTE network (Cyanogenmod, LiquidSmooth), I decided to go for a stock-ish ROM: NuSenseSIX-MAX which is an HTC One port. It installed without a hitch and says its on LTE but then after about 10 minutes, switches to 3G and won't go back to LTE unless I reboot the phone, and after 10 minutes, back to 3G. I installed the latest firmware and baseband (1.02.01.0207) so that isnt the issue. Anyone experience this? Have any ideas?

Any luck finding a fix? I am having the same issue.
You guys need to flash a stock recovery and perform a factory reset with the stock recovery installed.
Many aosp roms corrupt the NV radio partitions and nothing will fix that except stock recovery.
So back up anything important on the device, grab the stock recovery, load it up.
Then either from hboot, or rom settings menu, or from stock recovery (exclamation point/phone image/volume up+power to get menu) factory reset.
That will fix the NV radio partition that corrupt.
Then you can reflash a custom recovery and set back up your rom.
This is the only true fix for this issue.
Yes RUU will fix it too because it does the factory reset with stock recovery as well, but that's not necessary, just having the latest firmware, stock recovery and doing the reset is all it takes. :good:
Same rule applies on the m7 and m8 as well...

Then either from hboot, or rom settings menu, or from stock recovery (exclamation point/phone image/volume up+power to get menu) factory reset.
That will fix the NV radio partition that corrupt.
Then you can reflash a custom recovery and set back up your rom.
This is the only true fix for this issue.
Yes RUU will fix it too because it does the factory reset with stock recovery as well, but that's not necessary, just having the latest firmware, stock recovery and doing the reset is all it takes. :good:
Same rule applies on the m7 and m8 as well...

Tried this - no love.
Steps done: Flashed stock recovery, chose factory reset from modified hboot, flashed custom recovery and PA 4.6 ROM.

Number one cause of the problem: Aosp roms
First thing you went and installed after fixing the issue: Aosp rom
I've been having network issues as well for a couple of months now. I think it's actually a Verizon issue as I just got a certified replacement device that's having the same problems as my old device. The issue seem to have coincided with the latest update/as well as Verizon's switch to xlte for certain phones. My signal strength/bars is a lot weaker than before. I also have a lot of drops to 3g and 1x in a 4g area that seems to have trouble switching back to 4g. When I called to report the issues/get a replacement device they said that they are aware that many DNA users have been having issues since the latest update. Hopefully we get another update to fix these issues. Also I've never loaded anything aosp on this device. Just stock and viper.

I had this issue for a very long time. Couldn't stay connected to 4G to save my life. But as Santod said, you need the stock recovery and stock hboot, then do a factory reset from hboot. I have been connected to 4G for the last 3 days since I fixed this prob. Now waiting for my new sim tray. I actually RUU'd to stock 3.06 and still had little to no 4G. Factory reset and instantly connected to 4G. Gave it a whole 24hrs, no issues or disconnects, then weaksauce and firewater. Now back on Viper and I haven't seen 3G or 1X for 3 days and counting. Hope it helps.

Ok, so I flashed stock recovery and stock hboot and did a factory reset from hboot - however my previous rom still loads... shouldnt the factory reset delete the rom? I'm not sure how to verify the factory reset worked.

Factory reset only erases /data (without wiping /data/media) /cache and resets NV partition.
