So I foolishly tried to flash the gt-i9505 miui rom to tinker with it. I added the files that was in the OP on that thread and got it to boot up but didn't get any further than the setup screen. I had also flash Chronic Kernel alongside it because when I didn't add a kernel it wouldn't boot.
Decided I needed to start fresh and I odin'd back to stock recovery w/out root and now my phone is stuck in roaming mode. I cannot activate my phone at all...when it goes to setup wizard it asks me to press 1 to complete activation but I can't pull up the dialpad to press 1 to activate.
Did I screw up my radio on this? I have a replacement coming but I won't get it til Tues I was kinda hoping to fix this myself since Verizon tech couldn't fix it.
Any help would be appreciated. I'm stock vmdk right now.
Sounds like your apn got hosed. Check to see if it's correct fit your carrier.

That is what I was thinking but how do I go about changing the apn on a stock factory image? I looked in the mobile networks and didn't see anywhere to fix the setting

clicked mobile networks/access point names/say Lte-Verizon Internet with VZWINTERNET below it in small font. The button wasn't highlighted so I clicked the button and it acted like it was going to switch over to data but it went back to roaming...
hit menu button and Add new access point and reset to default it greyed out...can't tap any of those options

Download cyanogenmod. Install and Boot without the sim card in. Go to network settings and change from SIM to NV. Reboot with sim in. Your problem is solved.

I wish I would have thought of this sooner before I flashed the new baseband on it It's getting replaced Tues I just wanted to see if I could fix it myself and thought maybe updating the phone to the new build would have worked (it sure didn't) Thanks for the idea and I'll keep this in mind should it happen again (it better not though)
It will definitely happen if you switch between stock and aosp. If you choose one or the other stick with it. I know it's hard but it will save you a lot of headaches.

I didn't realize AOSP would do that as well...do very much appreciate your advice and help...thanks again
i'm unfortunately in the same boat here. I was trying to decide between an AOSP and TW rom, screwed up my network connection, and then somehow thought Odin with ME7 update would be a good idea. It sounds like this is just a network settings issue, is there anything that can be done with root and the terminal or some other setting/configuration change?
Please help, thanks in advance for any leads to fix this...
I'm sorry but without a custom rom I doubt you can get to CDMA subscription setting and switch it to the proper value. Look it up maybe someone has a solution that would work with stock.

I can't tell you the exact steps (I was doing all sorts of clicking and restarting), but it has something to do with enabling hidden menus and making some changes in there. If anyone else runs into this issue, reply here and I will try to help where I can...
Too bad you are now stuck with just root and stock only.

Meh, after a good debloating workout it's not so bad. It's nice to not worry about a random FC, only downside is just preference for some of those visual mods and themes...who am i kidding, I can't wait until Safestrap is rolling.
So now i'm wondering what mods I can use with factory recovery...anything that isn't a full rom should still work...right? I'm a little worried of messing it up again, but I feel like some of the tweaks out there should be possible while running stock.

Yeah I thought the ME7 update would fix my issue with my phone but it didn't...sadly my replacement phone has wifi and bluetooth problems and all I done was root it (which has NEVER happened to me) Verizon sending me yet again another replacement. Glad to hear you got yours fixed though. Hopefully this thread will help the next person out who ends up with this issue
You can try to deploy 3minit framework but you would have to do it manually since you cannot flash it. If you manage that without breaking it than you should be good without the custom stock rom.

No promises but...
First, root
Then, enable hidden menus
Finally (I'm not sure yet, waiting on someone to get back me about if this was the fix or not) from the dialer type ##RTN# and at the menu tap Reset, then reboot, double check your network settings, and then come back here and verify that it was the rtn menu that fixed the issue so the next guy who comes along knows what to do...
It's kind of ironic how useless official support is, I spent hours on the phone and hours digging through xda to get my fix...support did nothing, xda helped with everything
I am running stock rooted 4.3 with the tethering fix from runandhide05. Does anyone else have an issue where the stock app takes like 30seconds to finally allow an attached device to browse. My computer connects very fast but ti says there is no network available for a long period of time. Meanwhile the tethering app doesn;t say a device is connected. I really liked wifi tether for root TrevE mod because its connection was instantaneous. Any suggestions or has someone got the old app to work?
Any suggestions??

No it doesn't.
And to complain about something taking 30 seconds to authenticate, assign an IP and allow passthru....
Anyways this is the norm. To verify you can restore to stock, purchase tether package and verify that's normal.

Was not trying to come across bad. It's a proven method that involves changing two lines of code. It gets old when people who don't know how something works try to blame the person who does and their method/code.
My suggestion is a valid and proven way to test something that you may find unacceptable
If you don't want the person who wrote the code then don't mention them in your post. Then others who don't know how it works can continue to speculate on what the "problem" is.

Ok so i have the tmobile sim in my verizon phone I am using the fast.T-Mobile.com apn settings I'm in a 4g area. My issue is my phone rapidly changes from h+ to 3g, to 4g lte and very seldom edge..... Fyi happens as I'm at work so I'm stationary. Data works but kinda lags at times.

The stock lollipop Rom has an issue with syncing hangouts and gmail. In order to force sync,IPv6 is manually disabled every 1 minute. When that happens, your data connection resets, and you see your phone go up through the speed technologies.

This is probably what you seek, but a word of warning; I haven't tried any of this myself. I don't know whether this will work or break your phone. If I were trying to do this, I would probably just comment out that second line (put a '#' in front), but if you start getting sync problems, this will probably be why.

Not sure I wanna delete anything like that off my phone when I'm not,sure off this will help. Of I went back to stock kk would I still have this issue?

Theoretically you won't still have this problem if you go back to KK. I haven't gone back to KK since I took the plunge into LP, so don't quote me on that. In fact, if you just install the stock LP ROM, you won't have this problem any more as well.
OR, you could install Jasmine 5.0, and then upgrade it to something like 5.0.7 or 5.0.8, which ever one was before the IPv6 fix started getting baked into the Rom. That's probably what I would do, but I haven't tried SkyDragon yet, so I don't know what I'm missing.

If you don't like the Edge > 3G > H+ > LTE, don't use 5.0.11, I'm on that, and it happens to me. I'm also Unlocked and on the T-Mobile network, just like you. It didn't happen to me at all before the IPv6 stuff started going into the Rom. And I also didn't have any sync issues.

You'll have to follow the steps from the 5.0 post. Extract the files to /sdcard/ and then do some shell commands in TWRP. Takes you out of your comfort zone a little, but it worked for me.

Perfect!!! Thanks. I got it loaded up now i am getting all my data back up on the phone.
I just made a call and my LTE didn't drop and I was able to surf the internet while on the call so I think the official OTA is about to drop and they've activated the advanced calling features.
on prerooted .509 btw
I just gave mine a try on .485 and it dropped my LTE as soon as the call began. Can anyone else confirm that it is working on the alternate lollipop?
You can see the ongoing call in the status bar as well as the active LTE

was it active on your line before with another device? Mine was, and I suppose it could be location specific. Who knows for sure, but it is definitely working for me. Simultaneous voice/data and HD calling.

No, it wasn't active on my line before but we have over 40 phones on the business account and there is no way to activate it on our side of the account management.
Coworkers with the GS5/6 iPhones have advanced calling.
I can't seem to get it working either. Hmmm, I wonder if it is a regional thing or why one person can the feature over the others.

I think unless you had it active already on a different device it won't work. I suspect they have activated it for testing prior to the lollipop update.
Again it's possible they've only activated it for testing it in limited areas.

Can anyone please verify if there is wifi calling on this phone. I live in an area with horrible reception so its somewhat important. Thanks in advance.
It is, and it works.

I had assumed that the setting would always be there but greyed out if not supported by the network; but perhaps not! The phone definitely supports it as you can see.
I think this is sim dependent, based on my experience with other phones

Sorry can't help further; it does work for me in the UK on the BT (EE) network with the Find N (I have terrible network reception where I live also). Might be worth checking with your network provider to see if Wifi Calling is only enabled for certain phones on their network, and whether they can enable it for the Find N?

I was already on ColorOS 13 developer preview 2, so I suspect this has something to do with it.. The problem is, 1 - The software needed to get DP2 is no longer available on the Oppo developer site. 2 - Most importantly, if you did manage to get your hands on a copy of DP2 and your version is already above 19 this wouldn't work anyway, as the process to install DP2 only worked on versions 19 and below..
