Hello Guys, This is my first time Posting a Thread but this one is quite interesting.
Everyone knows that the HTC one Max from Sprint is Sadly Well Sim Locked, and the Verizon HTC one max is Unlocked straight from the factory due to FCC regulations. On Sprint devives, even when you put in the SIM Card, it won't ask for the Unlock Code. It says Invalid SIM and wont let you use it at all. But I have found the way to Sim Unlock the HTC One Max for Sprint. It's really almost the same way as on the HTC One but with a few more steps.
Step one is that you have to be Rooted. Now, I am not sure if you have to be S-OFF or S-ON but I am S-OFF so you might have to be S-OFF as well, but you guys can confirm that for me.
Next is you need the Following apps: Root Explorer, Sprint HTCOne SIMUnlock Helper. You Must install them before continuing. You can get these Apps from the Play Store.
After that, you need to download the HTCOMADM_SPCS.apk File (I have attached the modded file in this Post). This file is the file that needs to be replaced from the one in your /system/app Directory. You need to Remove the HTCOMADM_SPCS.apk file first (Or Rename it) before you place the modded one in there. Once done, MAKE SURE that your permissions are set to rw-r-r and reboot. If you don't set the permissions right, it WILL not work.
After you replace the File, You are going to use the SIM Unlock Helper app next. After you select the app, it might say "Device Check Fail" in Big Red Letters. It might also say, "This Device is not a Sprint HTC One! Therefor, this Program will not run". This is ok. What you want to do is click the 3 Menu Dots on the Upper Right hand side and Select "Display SIM Unlock Log". It might ask you for Permissions. Make sure to Grant them. After that it will say "SIM Unlock Log". There shouldn't be anything there. Now hit the back button and now it should say Device Verified, Root Available etc. etc.
Next is you want to tap Start. If everything goes well, within seconds you should be in the OMADM Test Client. Scroll all the way down to the end and tap the selection SIMLOCK. The phone will freeze a couple of seconds and then return to normal. Once done tap the back button and the SIM Unlock Helper should show SIM Unlock Results. If it says Successful, reboot the phone (Although tapping Reboot might not work from the app itself)
Once Rebooted, Insert your SIM Card of your GSM Carrier and go to your Settings> Mobile Data> Network Mode. Once you tap that, Tap GSM/UTMS Only. If successful your phone will switch from Sprint to the GSM carrier. All there is next is to setup your APN settings to be able to receive the carriers data services.
PLEASE NOTE!!! That you won't receive HSPA+ (4G LTE) Data, but you will only receive the 14.4Mbps HSPA Speeds. Talk, Text, and Data should work with no issues.
Please Confirm that it works. I will be posting some pics up later of the process.
Credit also goes to chas123, he's the one who hacked HtcOMADM_SPCS (which is also used in Sprint HTC One SIM Unlock Helper) making it possible to unlock!
Also, for those who are having a vdm error. Replacing the original apk after unlocking fixes it. For those that flashed the ruu maybe replacing that apk will help also.
Has anyone else with a Sprint version accomplished this successfully?
Confirm worked

Screenshots of my Phone
Here are some screenshots of my Sprint HTC one Max SIM Unlocked.
What kind of speeds are you getting on T-Mobile?
3G or 4G?
did you lose any functionality, like wifi N/AC, or anything else involving the radio?
thanks!
I have been getting upto 14.4 Mbps Download and around 3-4 Mbps Upload on T-Mobile which is Standard HSDPA/HSUPA speeds. I have to Test AT&T next

Nope. I can Still Connect to the Dual Band 5Ghz A, C, and N Channels just fine. Only issue there might be is the Force Closed issue on a App. But nothing major.

didn't work for me. I''m S-OFF, set all permissions correctly. after pressing START button or even thru Terminal Emulator I get the same message that "OMADM application been unexpectedly stopped" Any thought?
What Rom are you using? I am using SkyDragon Max v 2.0

Didn't work for me either on stock rom, but worked after I flashed SkyDragon..
The Rom I used to perform the SIM Unlock was SkyDragon Max v. 2.0 Sprint. So you might have to be on this Rom to work.
ALSO, you MUST be on a Deodexed Rom for it to work. The Odexed roms wont work since the file you are editing is only in Deodexed form and doesn't contain the .Odex file.
Probably had to be on a Deodexed rom.
Just caught in another forum that network unlocking your sprint Max (taken from directions for sprint One) causes that vdm error. Replacing the original apk after unlocking fixes it. For those that flashed the ruu maybe replacing that apk will help also.
*you probably want to note this in the OP

The same happened to me, try the process a couple of times and even reflash ROMS, every time the SIM unlock helper show success but it didn't worked. I read multiple times the forums and when I was about to quit, decide to try another time but instead of uploading the HtcOMADM_SPCS.apk file from my MAC, decided to do a direct download from the phone and finally I it works!!!!!
Now I want to go back to my nexus 5, I am not sure I am going to keep this phone (for now I already remove the notebook case, its really complicated to use with it..)
I thought AT&T had been migrating their UMTS services to 850 Mhz? You might find yourself not getting 3G with AT&T just as you would with T-Mobile, since only 1900 Mhz is usable on this Sprint version.
If you want to use this in Mexico, Telcel only uses 850 for 3G, so you will only get EDGE. Movistar and Iusacell use 850 and 1900, and depending on the region, there will be no 3G services (if the region uses 850 vs 1900)
I know I can get 14.4Mbps on T-Mobiles Internet which isn't terrible but isn't bad either. Hopefully the next Gen HTC one max will be better.
wont detect sim

Im having a similar problem, I was able to bootloader unlock, root, s-off, custom recovery and custom rom (skydragon) but I still cant get the sim unlock to work. I replaced the HtcOMADM_SPCS and set the permissions correctly, got simunlock helper to work, ran sim lock; but still doesnt detect my sim card. I get no bars and phone settings shows "no sim card found" under Available GSM networks.
Here are my settings as seen in bootloader exactly

I have a Straight Talk Sim.. with my Unlocked NOTE ..actually now I have 3 ST SIMS as the 1st 2 were thought maybe defective and ST sent me 2 replacements.
None of them get recognized as the message " No SIM Card" just pops up with all 3. Its not the APN settings, as I have tried all suggested and they are primarily for data and not the phone.
Any suggestions here? I have talked at length to both Samsung and ST and tehy each say its the other. Phone works fine with a TMOB SIM.
Thank you.

It seems to me its gotta be the sim cards...bcuz i use ST with my note with no problems...and now using it with my s3 without any issues at all...from wat u posted its the sim cards...especially if phone recognize the Tmobile sim card...
Just stick the sim cards in another phone, then you'll know for sure its the ST sims.
That is interesting because there a quite a few Note's on ST SIM cards..
Rarely if ever does a SIM card go bad unless it was chewed by a dog or hit by a lightening bolt.
There is something very simple yet wrong. Wrong SIM card? It is in backwards or upside down something like that.
Why is your phone 'unlocked'? The StraightTalk SIM card should already be for the AT&T phone so no need for unlocking.
You don't need to unlock but if your ESN was carrier locked that would explain it. Phone under contract but customer stops paying on 2 year contract and it gets the boot. Just one of many examples of how to get a carrier lock.
My AT&T carrier unlocked/rooted Note ran on Tmobile and is now on ST.
These are the only settings that work right for me. Although the phone should boot with the ST SIM even if these are wrong.

Yes I messed with the APN settings .. and yet those are for data . The phone as you have mentioned should boot automatically and yes many Galaxy NOtes are using Straight Talk. Now I have 3 different SIMS not working !? And yes they are in correctly etc.. if they weren't the Tmob SIM wouldnt work either.
I bought the phone New and it came unlocked as I prefer it that way rather than deal with ATT. I also travel abroad.
It's been a head scratcher.... Though I know the answer has to be out there.. I cant believe I have 3 bad SIMS in a row.
I am open to suggestions. Thank you.
ok good to know, please let me know how it goes for you, as I am also in the same boat and trying to use SL for my lovely note
did you flash custom roms?
you might want to take a look at your device informations, especially the IMEI, if its not your correct IMEI it means you've wrecked your /efs partition, search for EFS recovery to fix your imei and your sim card not recognized issue
Originally I did not..I inserted into the stock ROM. That didnt work , So then I flashed custom ROMS.. 3 different ones.. and they didnt work.
I dont understand what you mean by not the right IMEI ? Its a number.. the SIM doesnt screen IMEI's ? I bought it brand new about 6 weeks ago from Negri Electronics which specializes in unlocked phones.
They have a very good resellerating but one customer Lawrence reports something that would explain your case:
"Some of their unlocked phones (unlocked-originally branded) have the problem that they come with generic IMEI 004999010640000, this imei is generic and it is not unique. Phone won't get service in some countries(i.e UK) and it is a matter of time before this imei gets banned in US. Negri recognizes the problem but won't repair or exchange the phone, read their store policies before buying......................".
Well... then why would it work with T Mobile? I mean after all, its an ATT phone and designed to run on their networks? So it works with ATT and T MOB but not Straight Talk?
As well Thats not my IMEI, not to say perhaps its another generic one, I have no idea. You make some interesting points that I haven't heard before.

once again look at your device information - imei, and look at your imei on the box package or from under your device's battery, if they don't match then your EFS is ruined
flashing roms could cause these, but its pretty rare

in this case, i think you have 2 problems..
1. your device is sim carrier locked (which you could unlock manually)
2. your /EFS partition which hold your original IMEI is corrupted (you could restore/fix this too)
if you happen to have some files mentioning EFS on the root of /sdcard then you should backup those files.. you might need those to restore/fix your EFS partition

Thank you for your insights Twiq.
OK... The IMEI #s match. SO that's not the issue ( I think).
It's unlocked, so even though its an ATT phone, it works with Tmob SIM.
As for the EFS corruption possibility, well, it didnt work with all original Stock ROMS on Android 2.36. I rooted it thinking maybe ATT had something in there..but it still didnt work after 3 different ICS ROMs. I restored the original ROM yet still zero.
It works for Tmob. If the EFS was corrupted, then even a Tmob SIM wouldnt work.. right?

nope, then my earlier posts are irrelevant..
i think what you need here is flashing a different modem version which works with your current carrier/location.
what is your Baseband Version? it's on the about screen
you could try several modems listed Here, but flash only modems compatible with your current rom (GB/ICS)
there should be modems for international versions of Note, but i couldn't find one without downloading full rom.

Just cutting in here. . .
With a galaxy tab if you wanted to put in a sim from a phone T-mobile would block you and you would get a generic web page saying go buy a data plan for your tablet. The solution was to delete the efs folder and let the android system rebuild it. That rebuilt efs was the generic 0049etc. So a bad efs won't stop you on T-mobile's network.
As for esn, US GSM carriers don't block that. I asked a service rep why not, especially in the cas of stolen phones? He said those stolen phones are new customers.
Sorry there's no help in those paragraphs, but they eliminate some things. . .
I still haven't seen that you tested the ST sims in another phone. Its unlikely but a good possibility.

Baseband is i717UCLE2
I have flashed several of the ICS radios for T mobile... but that would effect the reception etc.. This didoes even recognize the SIM. From the moment the phone powers on it says "no SIM".
I talked to Negri, and they just unlock the phone just as you or I would with a code they buy in bulk.
So its no generic IMEI or any grey market stuff.
The radios it has are for ATT and this should work for an ATT StraightTalk SIM.. but it doesn't !?
Find someone with an AT&T unlocked phone. Your SIM should start up in their phone and their SIM should start your phone. If not then take it from there. I've had at least three radios that didn't work right with ST but all booted up fine.

Right.. this is beyond a radio issue . They dont boot. When I boot with a non activated TMOB SIM, it doesn't say " NO SIM". It boots, if I try to make a call, it will say "network unavailable".
With the ST SIMS, it immediately says "NO SIM" before it even accesses the network. Samsung said that since it reads the TMOB sim, it cant be the sim card reader.
I am grateful for all who have volunteered their expertise here, yet still have yet to find a solution though I know there is one out there. Thank you.
Dude. . . The ST sims are dead.
OK so this is a good one, and i feel this needs some attention.
Phone: Samsung Galaxy Nexus provided by Sprint ( NO PHYSICAL SIM CARD IN THIS MODEL) sprint doesnt use SIM cards in most there phones currently.
Problem: Phone displayed message "SIM card is PUK locked, Please enter 8 digit PUK Code to unlock. contact sprint for details". i browsed sprints forums and found a few posts of codes to attempt. Only so many codes may be entered before the Sim Shuts its self down for good. now the phone was displaying across the bottom at lock screen "No SIM card:sprint" (yes i confirmed and double checked there is no removable SIM card In the phone or under the battery). so now the phone service is limited. no mobile data is usable and phone calls often were dropped with "NO SIM CARD" error.
Rooted Status: phone was Rooted and custom rom JBsourcery was currently in use. prior to seaking sprint store for help. i went ahead and did a full restore using Nexus toolkit application to Flashback stock OS and lock boot Loader so warranty would still be eligible.(note this flash back did not recover sim error)
What i tried to fix the error: Flashed other custom roms, as well as a stock rom later on, Factory reset both done by Team Win Recovery Project, and factory reset done with stock Recovery after i restored phone to stock, Wiped Cache and Dalvik. No use off to the sprint store
Sprint Store Diagnosis: showing them the "No SIM Card error" gave them a good laugh. the store tried there version of full reset. No fix here. associate called Sprint Tech support. they were stumped as well and simply replaced. I got new galaxy nexus
How did this happen/ What caused it Yes! i have the answer for this believe it or not. i just couldnt find a fix. once the galaxy nexus is Rooted and so far custom roms i can confirm have this Feature. ROMs included are: JBsourcery for nexus 4.4 and 4.5, And the 4.2.1 stock rom available on Galaxynexusroot.com. i assume this feature is thrown in because the roms are universal for Sprint, verizon, and GSM phones. therefor if you have a Sim card you can edit your sim card lock.
In my case, for my sprint Nexus under Settings> Security= this list has an added toggle "set up Sim card lock" of course my curios mind checked into this. little did i know that as soon as you trigger that bad boy. something in the phone changes Permanently .
as i stated i did get a new phone in exchange for this error, and of course i rooted again and flashed the 4.2.1 rom and this setting is back again. as so long i dont touch it. there will be no issue. however, i think this should be looked into and possibly removed from certain roms specific to "SPRINT" lol as we dont need it. also maybe look into a way to recover from this scary phone breaker. i dont beleive i am the only one who did this. there will be more so long as there are curious minds out there who Root and custom rom flash. thanks guys

Yup, I got myself a nice useless brick as well because of this stupid SIM lock setting. VERY VERY pissed, as there is no solution, and sprint will not provide the code.

I have same problem
Any news?
Have the same problem. I bought the phone with this problem. Did not know that it is can not be fixed.
I'm to far away from Sprint so it can be resolved replaced the phone.
I firstly want to say that this is not my work, i am just sharing a patch that always works for my LS990 with any rom i've flashed on it. Credits goes to mentor (he published it in this site). I see many people asking for GSM enabled custom roms for ls990 and maybe this can be helpful for them.
This patch will just change some properties of the build.prop file in order to enable sim detection and GSM capabilities (for more info you can visit the previous link).
I've used it with Blisspop, CM 12 & 12.1, Dirty Unicorns, CloudyG3 and others Lollipop based roms out there (i can't remember all of them) in GSM networks outside U.S.
Today i flashed 6.0.1 Marshmallow of Resurrection Remix (link to the rom here) and after flashing the patch everything is working just fine.
Despite whatsapp notifications , here some captures of my phone running RR 6.0.1 on GSM network Claro:

Click to expand...

Before flashing to BareCee ZVC, I specifically asked questions about GSM working. At least one user confirmed to me that GSM worked fine for him on BareCee ZVC, without mentioning the need for any additional modifications.
I haven't tried it yet, as I am heading to Japan next month, which is where I connect to Softbank's GSM network. What I did notice when I first flashed BareCee V2 is that the GSM option was not visible. In order to reveal GSM as an option, you must first be sure that both "international Voice Roaming" and "International Data Roaming" are checked under the "Roaming" menu settings. Once those are checked, you can go back under More > Mobile Networks > Network Mode... and you will now see the option for GSM/UTMS at the bottom of the list.
While that option is now visible and accessible, what I do not know is whether or not it will actually work, without any modification. However, just in case you're not actually seeing the GSM/UTMS setting, I thought I'd pass this info along.
Good Luck!

Ahh thanks, did this for a friend, those options were greyed out, so tried this. oh and the sim had an exclamation mark stating unsupported sim. Dunno, may give this another go.

We you able to get GSM working? If so, did you need the mod here or did you simply use the instructions I provided above to reveal the GSM option?
not quite yet, went back to cloudy, since this was a friends phone , didnt get to play around much as he didnt have a phone for work. but having a look at the script, i believe some settings in the build.prop is incorrect causing these issues, need to compare with the one in cloudy , there maybe other dependancies, but havent had the time to check

I firstly want to say that this is not my work, i am just sharing a patch that always works for my LS990 with any rom i've flashed on it. Credits goes to mentor (he published it in this site). I see many people asking for GSM enabled custom roms for ls990 and maybe this can be helpful for them.
This patch will just change some properties of the build.prop file in order to enable sim detection and GSM capabilities (for more info you can visit the previous link).
I've used it with Blisspop, CM 12 & 12.1, Dirty Unicorns, CloudyG3 and others Lollipop based roms out there (i can't remember all of them) in GSM networks outside U.S.
Today i flashed 6.0.1 Marshmallow of Resurrection Remix (link to the rom here) and after flashing the patch everything is working just fine.

IT WORKED! Thanks! but I want to set up my APN but when I try to set it up I got a Msg saying :APN setting are no available for this user"
Just to make sure I understand, this does not add LTE functionality, correct? Those bands are just absent from this model?
Thank you , its working , but I have a problem, can't switch between 2g and 3g from the settings , when switching it just mentions than it's 2g but when activating data it's on 3g, I don't know if I must add or modify some lines from build.prop.
I did not try this patch but i did edit my build prop from SPNT (or what ever) to OPEN and also got that unusable phone with non stop pop ups. This discourages me from trying this but would like to know if it works on Sprint LG G3 LS990 ZVC

You can edit your build prop just adding these two lines here allow u to edit your apn
http://forums.androidcentral.com/ve...41691-mod-add-apn-editor-system-settings.html it works on ls990 i have my other lg g3 working on gsm using that method no com.phone errors ir anything atleast confirmed working on sprint ls990 in US on att. I used shorcut master lite from the play store to get to apnsettings. Clicked 3 dots on top right corner to make new apn and made it and it stuck. Some thing ive never seen my ls990 do.

Thanx a lot!!! This was what I was dying for months and i finally got it!! LG G3 LS990 with candy six rom 6.0.1... From Nepal. Just flashed and is running smooth till now. very happy. thanx again.
Anyone has tried this on LG Gstylo ls770 from boost?
running android 6.0
Modem fatal error when I insert a sim - AS990 flashed to LS990
I am trying to determine where i have gone wrong in my process of converting an AS990 to LS990 and then use it on GSM service. I followedd the procedure posted on XDA by BakedTater, and everything looked to work correct until i attempted to take it further for use with GSM. i am trying to apply the CDMA to GSM patch and then use the phone with Tmobile or ATT service.
i did not locate the line in the build property to edit ro.build.target_operator=SPR to GLOBAL or spr etc, so is this the cause? I have tried the CDMA to GSM zip for Sprint LS990, as well as the zip for generic global gsm phones. Everything appears to be working fine, UNTIL i put in a GSM sim and then i receive the following error. Is this due to the wrong modem or maybe this phone needs more things updated to support GSM? I have flashed all available LS990 modems, as well as an original AS990 modem, with no real change. The phone did show it connected to tmobile service briefly before the latest crash detailed below.

Hello,
Are there any users with Redmi note 3 Pro / Snapdragon version that have issues like no 4G or LTE connectivity while using sim1?
this has worked for me when I first bought the phone.
I unlocked the bootloader - unofficial version, installed twrp, tried to flash a rom, bricked my deice, than I managed to flash 7.2.3 global stable official rom - my bootloader was relocked, but sim1 could no more connect on 4g network.
while searching for it manually I can see it, but when i click it to connect, it just registers on 3g network.
since than I have tried to reset the device, full erase, no luck.
I installed global developer rom - with locked bootloader - no luck
I received a code to unlock bootloader, i Unlocked it, but still no 4g connection on sim1.
Any idea what could be wrong?
P.S.
If I put the same SIM in slot 2, 4g connects with no issues, but I want to use that slot for the Microsd card.
And I kind of found the culprit.
The phone that is sold in many countries comes with customized miui 7.1.9.0.0 (note the extra 0) and on this rom version 4g works on sim 1, on global versions it does not.
And now I am searching for a customized rom that can't be found anywhere.
Well I had the same version 7.1.9.0.0 (the unofficial multilanguage) when I got the phone, but I have not activated the 4G on my providers. In the mean time this rom had many issues (didn't recognise the second sim etc) so I flashed with EDL and MiFlash the original Global rom (7.1.7.0) and was ΟΤΑ updated to 7.1.8.0 . Since then I have no 4g on SIM1 but it works fine in slot2
I then got permission to unlock bootloader and unlocked it by flashing the official Chinese Dev 6.3.31.
Someone on the official site reported that the baseband of the AOSP and/or 7.1.7.0 solves the problem if you flash it manually via fastboot... I tried all the following basebands but no luck either.
- AOSP rom baseband (A.2.0.c1.1-00005-8976_GEN-PACK-1)
- Stable 7.1.7.0 rom baseband (A.2.0.c1.1-00019-8976_GEN-PACK-1)
- Stable 7.2.2.0 / 7.2.3.0 rom baseband (1-00019-8976_GEN_PAC K-1.49420.2 .)
Now I have the Greek Stable 7.2.2.0 (based in the Chinese Stable and made by the official fan site in Greece Xiaomi-Hellas) and yet no 4G.
It has been reported as a bug on the official site and as they say the developers are looking to solve it within the next updates..
Hi Project_P we meet again! heh
OP: if you don't need dual sim, try adding a dummy sim on slot 1 and turn it off and keep your normal sim in slot 2. That fixed the issue for me (obviously not ideal if you need dual sim OR if you need to expand storage).

That is the trick, I want to be able to use the microsd slot also. I am thinking of stripping a sim card and glue it to a microsd card as per the many tutorials out there.
Have you tried changing the cellular network type to "LTE" or similar?
I managed to regain 4g by doing this

I have tried to select it manually, but as soon as i click it, it just connects to 3g network.
There are many people who have this issue on en.miui.com/ thread-265011-1-1.html (correct the link) including me.
I came from a modified ROM 7.1.99.99 by the seller and I flash Miui (7.1.8.0) without unlocking the boatloader. Result: No LTE.
I flash the 6.3.31 the same way. No LTE too.
I set preferred network type to LTE only and no signal.
I've 4g on SIM2 when I've two SIM cards and sometimes on SIM 1. It's not stable
Hello,
I am French and I also got my phone with the Rom 7.1.9.0.(0) and I also lost 4G on slot 1. Sometimes I can have it on slot 2 by putting a second SIM card slot 2, but it is very unstable and sometimes I lose it also on slot 2. I installed all the Rom that exists but the Chinese / English, but nothing has changed . Even forcing the preferred 4G, I stay in H / H +. It's hopeless, now I think selling it but I will lose money because the 4G does not work.
Up ! We need some help here

Same problems here. Have to try changing to SIM2 slot and will report back. Weird bug.
edit: Better late than never. SIM2 only supports Nano from what I can tell. Couldn't switch since I'm on Micro. Will have to try with another SIM.
Same issue here. I lost 4g in sim slot 1 somewhere along the way through changing MIUI roms (Official/Dev/China etc) trying to unlock officially.
Until today with SIM1 slot Active, and SD Card inserted - No 4g anywhere.
Today I tried the hardware mod (sticking SIM to SD Card) - I now have 4G!

This is a method to get 4g working on SIM1 for a while. I got this info from XIaomi forums:
1. Turn off your phone
2. Put two simcard (micro & nano) that support 4G
3. Set data/internet to simcard 2
4. Eject your simcard tray without power off
5. Remove simcard 1 and put only simcard 2
6. Set LTE only on simcard 1 (using *#*#4636#*#* method)(dial that number, click phone information 1 and "Set preferred network type:" to LTE only)
7. Eject your simcard tray, and put simcard 1 again
8. Wait a few minute, if simcard 2 change to H+/3G
9. Switch data/internet to simcard 1
10. And ...... 4G/LTE work again using simcard 1.
11. After this you can eject the tray again without turning the phone off and swap SIM2 with microsd card.
I have the exact same situation as OP, even living in the same country. The thing is other users on the phone's softpedia section don't have this issue after flashing the 7.2.5.
I was hoping the 7.3.2. OTA would resolve this but there's no change.
My bug report was closed saying an update will come: http://en.miui.com/thread-280981-1-1.html.
Edit: I don't have a 2nd SIM to try that, nano-SIM too.

Whenever you can do the truck, do it. I also got the update to 7.3.2.0, but it is now back on 3g. I will do the mod again now.
A few have reported that a factory reset solved some issues.

I have the same issue with my handset too. even after update to 7.3.
Today I tested with only nano sim in slot 2 & it started finding 4G signals.
But slot 1 still work only for 2G & 3G
Hello,
I will repeat myself once, but I can confirm that if you received your phone with the Rom 7.1.9.0.0 dealer, it is because of her that we lost 4G on slot 1.
I really tried everything, even change the line build.prop but nothing has changed, still no 4G on slot 1.
Maybe if Xiaomi is an update of the Baseband, we can recover but this is not certain.

I know that, but still, it should work normal with international rom, because it uses the same modem as all redmi note 3 snapdragons out there.
Basically, Redmi Note 3 comes in 3 versions, two Chinese ones (One with MTK and one with SD650) and Global one(SD650). The Global version is the one that is sold in India, Taiwan, Singapore and part of Europe. The Chinese SD650 version, mostly sold in China, says it supports more bands than the Global one.
Chinese SD650 version LTE bands:
B1/B2/B3/B4/B5/B7/B8
B38/B39/B40/B41(2555-2655MHz)
Global Sd650 version LTE bands:
B1/B3/B5/B7/B8
B38/B39/B40/B41(2555-2655MHz）
I bought the Chinese one as I need to have Band 4 to work with my USA carrier. It worked when i was in China, but same unfortunate thing happens the me when I came back to the States and wiped my phone to dev. I can't access 4g band 4 on Sim 1, 3g connection is bad on Sim1 too. Sim 2 works fine for two days and then the 4g downgrades to 3g and then 3g connection is on and off.
Hello everyone!!
I received my Redmi Note 3 Pro last week. Yesterday, I received Xiaomi message saying I had been allowed to unlock bootloader. I did it, I flashed TWEP and SuperSU.
I was trying to unlock the 800mhz LTE band, although I had LTE with the other banbds, with the tools QPST and QXDM. First of all, I did a backup with QPST, in software download. In QXDM, I edited 06828 line, following this tutorial (http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note/general/unlock-lte-bands-step-step-xiaomi-mi-t3084774), and transforming my original number to make it has LTE 20 band, with an app of Play Store.
What I got is no LTE, when I put the original code, after reboot, it kept without LTE. I flashed miui.eu ROM, later Resurrection Remix and today, fastboot ROM V7.3.2 official with MiFlash, and there is no LTE anymore, except in RR, in which changing the mode from settings, it catched LTE (but no WiFi).
Therefore, I think I need the originao baseband to flash it trhough TWRP or whatever, to make the phone has LTE as it had.
Thanks!!
Regards!!

With 2 SIMS, no LTE on any of them. With SIM2 LTE. With SIM1 no LTE.
I also tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66889532&postcount=13 But not results at all. After putting another time SIM1, SIM2 gets LTE, but SIM1 doesn´t.

Dont give up miguel! Are you sure your carrier has active band 20 in your area? I've unlocked extra bands and what I've found is with our note 3SD's we cant check the frequency that our phones are actually using to determine what band we have in our environments. The reading of the incoming frequency(number) isn't built into the software. There is that small disconnect between our roms and the hardware. Unlocking extra LTE bands work. I unlocked all possible extra LTE bands. The problem is I cant tell what bands the carrier I use is using by looking at my phone to see what band its connected on.
The best way to see if band 20 is working is use another phone that doesn't have the hardware to software disconnect. See if the device connected to lte band 20 and if you have connectivity. Then on the note 3 only enable band 20 LTE on line 6828 of sim0. I'm not sure what the value is for only band 20 LTE. Maybe someone can post it.
After you restart the phone, switch the sim to slot 2, go to cellular networks in settings and connect manually to your 4g network. After it connects and before it gets data, pop sim out while phone is on and put the card in sim0 slot. let it load for a few min, and if you don't see anything after like 3 min go to cellular networks and see if you can select the local 4g network that you know works and on band 20. If it cant see the network or doesn't automatically connect then band 20 wont make it past the phone bandpass filter.
A bandpass filter is the only thing that stands between us and being able to receive all frequency of signal: https://www.google.com/search?q=bandpass+filter&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
If the filter is infact the reason our unlocking full bands doesn't work then I need someone to link a bandpass filter from ebay that will allow the extra lte bands and write a short tutorial on how to solder in the new filter.
I think unlocking bands the way the hardware currently is already works. I'm not in a location to be able to test my successful lte bands unlock until next month when I'll be on AT&T.
Good luck and please PM me any new information on nv memory hacking on redmi note 3's. I am very interested.
Any progress? I can't test Band 20 because my provider doesn't support it.

check link in first topic above, there is manual how to unlock B20 band and in step 2 use that commands instead dialers code (you see nothing on phone, just your phone opens port in device manager in PC). I have tried unlock B20 but without success and now I dont have any LTE

when the phone is booted up go to developer options, turn on usb debugging. Go to notification bar, turn off MTP mode. The phone should say, connected as installer. Then you go to your adb folder and open a command prompt and put in the three commands, one at a time.

i tried what you have posted, but still nothing happens, no ports tab on the device manager
i found the error, i typed usbconfig instead of usb.config
done editing,, is there an app where i can see if the bands are added??
or just by enabling the data to check for lte?
although i think it worked.. before no reception on some part of our house
now i got signal on those areas.
i researched all the lte band provided by the network(both sims)
i come from
11110000000000000000000000000000011011111

Then on the note 3 only enable band 20 LTE on line 6828 of sim0. I'm not sure what the value is for only band 20 LTE. Maybe someone can post it.
After you restart the phone, switch the sim to slot 2, go to cellular networks in settings and connect manually to your 4g network. After it connects and before it gets data, pop sim out while phone is on and put the card in sim0 slot. let it load for a few min, and if you don't see anything after like 3 min go to cellular networks and see if you can select the local 4g network that you know works and on band 20. If it cant see the network or doesn't automatically connect then band 20 wont make it past the phone bandpass filter.
A bandpass filter is the only thing that stands between us and being able to receive all frequency of signal: https://www.google.com/search?q=bandpass+filter&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
If the filter is infact the reason our unlocking full bands doesn't work then I need someone to link a bandpass filter from ebay that will allow the extra lte bands and write a short tutorial on how to solder in the new filter.
I think unlocking bands the way the hardware currently is already works. I'm not in a location to be able to test my successful lte bands unlock until next month when I'll be on AT&T.
Good luck and please PM me any new information on nv memory hacking on redmi note 3's. I am very interested.

Sorry for late reply friend. I first tried to just enable the LTE 20 band, disbaling the rest, but no result, I would try that hardware hack, but I will have to change to MIUI 7 once a time more.
I will give u more news soon!!!
Regards!!
Try CM13 build from @banmeifyouwant
I have fully working LTE/4G now 100% of time in Vodafone, UK. Before on MIUI... Only in some parts of Manchester, about 10%, now, perfect
