For the past 3-4 days, I havent had 4g. Not sure if it's related but I first noticed it within 24 hourss after taking my phone apart to clean the proximity sensor (I use wifi at home so 4g isnt on). When I turn wifi off it takes anywhere from 30 sec to 3-4 minutes to connect to data, and its a 3g connection. When it does show a 4g connection, I cant actually connect to the intenet.
I've tried everything I can think of. Started with toggling airplane mode on/off. Made sure the settings were correct under mobile data options.
I was running slim 3.6 with KT's kernel, but I've tried other roms w/ stock kernel. I odin'ed back to stock & unroot. I went into verizon and had the sim card replaced. nothing has worked.
Any ideas? I've since taken my phone apart again, dont see any noticable damage. is it possible I did some damage when I took it apart the first time?
wifi/3g/phone all work, just no LTE. My wife also has a stocked/unrooted s4 and her's is working fine.
Thanks
Dan
Are you able to make phone calls?
Edit: Are you on stock tw right now? The reason I ask is I've had AOSP roms default my CDMA subscription to NV. Which should be on RUIM / SIM.

Just curious but are you on the correct APN setting>> LTE- Verizon Internet?
Edit: I know you said you had Verizon replace your sim card but they can screw up sometimes. Since your wife has the same phone I would swap sims and test both devices. If her sim gets 4g in your phone then your sim is no good. Just a suggestion.

I had some strange radio issues a month ago. Where I only had 3g. Flashing a stock tw build with clean wipe fixed it. I know you said you odined back to stock so not sure if that would help.

Flashed TW, first time i went into apn settings the only option was the vzn lte and it wasn't selected. After selecting it i rebooted but still no luck. When LTE is showing in status bar i have no Internet connection. Flashed back to aosp and no different.
Appreciate the help from both of you

Yep, try a Sim, free if you go into a vzw store. Mine just started only getting 3g one day, new Sim fixed it. By chance did you *228 on the aosp, I know this will nuke the Sim.

No on *228, maybe I'll try a new sim card again.
I don't know anything about APN, if Verizon wasn't selected would that affect anything when they replaced the sim card yesterday?

Anything is possible. You would think they would have checked your APN. Were you on AOSP when they put a new SIM in?
Also from what you've posted, your CDMA sounds like its working fine. Just need to fix your LTE, which is were it boils down to your SIM.
Edit: You are on CDMA/LTE/EVDO in mobile network settings right?

This will narrow down whats going on and its easy. download this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.htsoft.sqleditor
Open app, grant root privilege, under apps, find settings storage, then settings.db, then global. Now look for preferred_network_mode should be set at 10 , mobile_data should be set at 1.
If those values are different change them , save, then reboot.

Can someone PLEASE tell me where to find the wifi calling service and or app so that i can get rid of this garbage annoying service and icon. Thank you.
No it's not in my settings. Yes I'm using a custom Rom but no one else using the Rom is having the issue so if someone could just tell me where to locate it in root explorer that'd be great. Thanks
Btw I deleted the WiFicall.Apk in system /app and it's still there so I know that's not it

IN the phone app, menu settings, should be at the bottom.
Under the dialing tab, hit the menu, choose call settings
at the bottom under Internet Call Settings
Try Titanium Back Up from Playstore, and go to Menu ---> Then Batch, find it and un-install it from there.
Lol it's not in either of those places. It's not in titanium backup either. Anyone know where it is in system?

Does it count as calling from abroad? Or does it just use regular minutes?
Go to settings > More Settings and uncheck wifi calling
And wifi calling deducts from your limited minutes. It isnt free calling but its just in case you have a bad phone signal you can use someones wifi to make calls. Once you make that call you cant be out of the wifi range or your call will drop. I disabled mine.

Download the "Phone Info" app from the market. It allows you to choose between 3g and 4g.
I was wondering the same thing. If theres no toggle, does it automatically go to the highest/best available data stream?
Thanks i just download this app and mess al lil bit with that an forget wich is the original set up could u help me with move it back

hey guys i was hoping someone could help me out. I'm not getting a gps lock on my phone. I have tried going back to stock, getting a gps lock and flashing different roms to see if that helps but nothing has worked. I know people usually get a lock after they flash back after going to a stock rom. any help would be appreciated.
i was having this issue as well could not get a lock for the life of me then i realized it was my house i took a drive and with in 5 minutes i had a lock.. maybe worth a shot maybe app on the market gps lock best of luck buddy

Get a navigation lock on the Verizon ROM. Then immediately boot into recovery and flash new ROM.

Let it sit then. Also try gps status from play. If it's showing that it should eventuality get a lock, then locks after the first will be much faster. Also, make sure you're outside trying to get the lock, much faster

I'll give it a try and let you know. I have tried the gps status before on a non Verizon rom trying to get a lock but it never did and it was outside. Might have to stick to Verizon ROM. I hope not tho

When you lock that way it is not using gps satellites and you will find out that your not even close to your proper location

How does that work? I tried downloading and it does not work. I can't seem to get mms texts or HSPA *** ACTUALLY I FIGURED IT OUT AS WELL. Usually on Samsung unlocked phones I don't have to add the APNs. Did this time tho.
Guys you can put "phone" for an and "default,mms,supl" for apn type and you'll get great signal...faster than network.
OK so i bought a Verizon s4 and im trying to get it to work on t mobile. i put the Sim in and put it on global but wont connect.
