I'm a new member here, I have done extensive search on this issue and have not found a solution yet.
My phone is Droid Razr Maxx XT912 that was flashed to PagePlus 3G months ago. I used a thread on Howard Forums that details the process for flashing various Droids to PP 3G.
It worked great, no problems. Last week I installed CyanogenMod 11 and it still worked good. Yesterday my PP LTE SIM arrived and I began the process of getting it to work on 4G. Settings in Mobile Network Settings are as follows: CDMA Subscription is set to RUIM/SIM, and Preferred Network Mode is set to Global(CDMA/EvDo/LTE/GSM/WCDMA. I tried a few of the modes, with same results.
The issue is that LTE works great, but I have no voice or SMS. MMS works fine. I have been back and forth with PP support, they programmed it for 4G and they say everything is correct on their end, which it probably is.
Is there an obvious setting I'm missing here? Again it is running CM11 with SafeStrap. Installing CM would have fully erased the 3G flash and settings, is that correct?
Thank you!

Installing CM has nothing to do with the flash, I think your best bet for it to work is to uninstall everything including safestrap, boot into fastboot, and RSD It to this: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13566-how-to-droid-razr-return-to-stock/ This is the only known way to restore the 3g settings you flashed the onto the device. Make sure you download this update: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/download.php?device=9&file=156 and not the Blur_Version.98.72.165.XT912.Verizon.en.US update, because the latter has no way of rooting it. Sadly, the only way to get your phone to work is to wipe it completely. Good luck!:good:
Thanks for the reply. I decided to try that about an hour ago, figured out how to uninstall safestrap, then used RDS Lite to flash the stock ROM (it was the same one you linked to). Now voice, sms, and 4G data are working flawlessly. The only drawback is that I'm back to the unrooted stock ROM. If I would install CM11 now, should it stay working or was there an issue with CM? I am assuming the 3G flash had affected files that are not part of the ROM?

CyanogenMod ROM has nothing to do with the service. You should be fine installing CM. If you need a root tool, use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-razr/development/droid-razr-utility-xt913-jellybean-t2861798 and install safestrap, and then install the ROM of your choice. It doesn't matter if it is Stock Slot or Slot 1 etc., it should work fine.:good:
It was just the leftovers of the previous 3G flash that caused the original problems.
I got my PagePlus 3G flashed XT912 onto PP 4G LTE with no problems by flashing the phone back to stock with RSD Lite and the .165 update. I then (after activating the LTE sim with PP) rooted, installed Safestrap, and installed Axxionkat. The one thing to check on any rom is in Settings>Data>Network>CDMA+LTE/EvDo.

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.

Factory reset after RUU worked. Thanks man.
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.

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.
Operator: U Mobile (Malaysia)
Rom: 2.3.6(4.5.1.41.MB860.ATT.en.US) flash with CWM using fruit cake rom.
Baseband: N_01.77.36P
Kernal Version: 2.6.32.9 a21`[email protected] #2
Status: Can make call and receive sms. Apn setting is good. Wifi and bluetooth also work fine. Only mobile data state is the problem.
Problem:
1.I got this Atrix last 3 week. When i put a sim card it cannot detect my data so i install TWEAKKER from Play Store and get the setting for my APN. Everything work fine.
2. After a week i unlock the bootloader, install Nottachtrix, and again using TWEAKKER to set my APN, have fun with lapdock (overclock it using faux kernal to 1.45ghz). Everything still work fine.
3. Last 5 days i start play around with Titanium backup and supercharged v6. I backup and remove system application that i think i dont need it. I end up with mess around with the system but since i already made a backup i just restore it to default and then i start notice i lost my data signal.
4. I reflash fresh nottachtrix rom using CWM but the data still disconnected. I try flashing other rom like ICS rom also same problem. And then i flash official rom using CWM (fruit cake method) and RSD method. Still no luck. But today i play around with HiAPN and i can connect to data again but it seem not stable. But i can receive Phone call and sms without problem.
5. I already check my sim card by put it to other phone and i got no problem with it.
Any suggestion what i need to do to make data work again normally?
Update 18 May 2014:
1. I reflash 2.3.4 rom using RSD. Mobile Network State still disconnect. I will buy a new sim with different operator to test either my phone got problem or is it the sim/operator problem. Old but powerfull phone. I hope i got change to use it as daily phone again.
Update 21 May 2014:
Already test with other operator also no luck. Flashing all the radio that i found also no luck. Guessing the hardware got problem but quit confuse because call and sms still can receive.

Not a smart advice, use it as last resource:
Find the radio version your phone have and flash it, or simply flash another radio. Be careful, tough as an incorrect version (not all radios work on every atrix) you may end with a nice hi-tech papeweight

I found all the radio in fruit cakes link except for D. Still no luck. Is it a problem with my phone? I can receive call and sms normally. Only data not work and i believe my APN setting is correct.
Already call my operator services and they also can't help. Today will try another sim card with different operator that i will borrow from my friend to check either i need to upgrade my sim or not.
Still hope to get any expert help from XDA forum
Any expert? I got iPhone and windows phone but nothing can beat this atrix+lapdock.

Hallo miogy,
this is a well known issue,
i am experience the same problem with my atrix 4G,
i recently flash the CM9 of CyanogenMod , (android 4.0.4),
before that i had the 2.3.4 (GB) - in this version my atrix had restart himshelf every day.
on the current version (CM9), i experiencig strange things with the Network.
this is not only us that experiencig that - it is a very common and wide .
its called RIL bug (RIL --> Radio Interface Layer),
my phone can work fine 2 or 5 ot 8 hours, and suddenly the data connection disconnected.
i even once had connected to a Mobile Carrier that is not mine.
as much as i understand till now, this RIL bug is caused of a bug in the Kernel, adn the best guys here in the XDA, are trying to solve it.
i am waiting to this solution very much, because this atrix 4g is great phone, and i like the CM9 also.
you can see for example this thread:

Hello,
I am currently running a VZN SCH-I545 MDK on a AT&T network that has worked perfectly for all pre-LP versions and ROMs. Although when I try to update to a LP ROM, my mobile data doesn't work. I get an exclamation mark next to the signal bars even though data is on. I do get phone signal and wifi works. Am I missing something when updating to a LP ROM? Is this an issue when porting from VZN to AT&T when LP hasn't been released?
1. I tried several LP ROMs, but the only one that has worked so far is Dirty Unicorns 9.2.
2. I always do clean flashes
Any help would be appreciated greatly!

So I found the fix... for me using a Verizon phone on an AT&T network, then the mobile data settings are incorrect when installing LP ROMs. Somehow I got it to work when I messed with the following -
1. Preferred network type to LTE (preferred)
2. APN set to wap.cingular or pta (?)
3. Dialed *#*#4363#*#*
If my Droid Incredible 4G LTE is connected to Wifi, it disconnects from Cellular Data. When I leave where ever it is connected to WifI, it won't connect back to cellular data. I have to turn off Wifi, then reboot the phone. I haven't tried something like switching to Airplane mode, I will try that. Has anybody else seen this issue? The phone is on Straight Talk Veriozon network, so is using SIM card for 4G LTE and CDMA for voice.
Are you stock?
No. Probably would help to mention that. S-OFF, partitions swapped and rooted CM 1.2.1 FWIW, this was happening with CM 11.2 before the partition swap. It wasn't happening before I did S-OFF and flashed CM 11.2 but I was also living in a different location for several months. It didn't start until I moved to where I am now.
I would try to do a clean reflash and see what happens.
I will think about that but I did a clean install when I did the partition swap and flashed the new ROM. I'd rather not do that again and have to set the phone back up again.
Today it seems to be better, I moved from Wifi to out and about and it switched to LTE properly.

I may have to try the reflash after all. The problem's gotten worse and now as of yesterday and today a reboot of the phone isn't getting me cellular data back. This did not start until we moved to a temporary place where I get voice service but not data at home. So the phone spends a lot of time on Wifi and not in a place where it can get data. So I'm wondering if the Verizon network is somehow forgetting about the phone or somesuch. At my old house, it was connected to Wifi but the data network was always available. The phone is S-Off with a custom bootloader and recovery. Assuming I wanted to try, can I put the stock ROM back on it without undoing all that?

If you want to go to stock, you will have to reverse the partition swap.

That part I understand. What I should have asked was "if I want to go back to the stock ROM, do I need to undo the custom recovery, relock the bootloader, go S-ON, etc? Any other ROMS besides CM I might try? That could tell me if it is the ROM or not but, again I did not have this issue until I moved to an area where I can get voice, but no data.
You should be able to remain s-off. here are the stock packages if you don't have them, http://android.cmphys.com/stock-fireball/

Thanks. I will grab a stock ROM. I really like CM 12.1 (and the swapped partitions) though. I was able to get the phone back to cellular data this morning while I was on a chat with Straight Talk. Why a reboot worked then but not the 3 other times I have no idea. I'm also wondering what happens the next time this happens if I go into APN settings and change it to one that doesn't work, then change it back.
Over looking at the stock ROM downloads I see a link to this patch:
http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/93484/
The ROM I am running now was built on 05/26. I see a newer CM 12.1 ROM dated 06/12 that contains that patch so I will flash that ROM, probably next week. I'm on call this weekend and don't want to risk bricking the phone.
I'm running the 6/12 build and it seems happy. I only run my Fireball on WIFI since I switched to AT&T and have a Nexus 5 for my primary.

Ive thought about getting a new phone on a GSM network but where we are building our house I can't get a ATT signal there, so I'm stuck with Verizon.
