there is also one thread about this but i cant post there.so i want to know what's matter with my alpha.it's missing 4g/lte option in network mode.it's brand new
try hire
same problems & explanations
if im not mistaken those kind of options are carrier dependent (if your provider doesnt support lte, you wont see it in menus)
if any1 knows better pls correct me
yes you are right.As i found its not phones problem,i've been told that theres no 4g area where i am,so thats why my phone doesnt have 4g option
plz close this thread
After you have rooted the device completely, go to Google Play and install 'ES file explorer'. Open the app, and press the menu key on the device and you will get a panel to your left on the screen. Scroll down and enable Rootexplorer (you will ask to grant permission by the SuperSU app since you have rooted, so give permission). Now use the search function and find the file with this EXACT name 'persist.radio.lteon' and delete it. Please make sure you are deleting this exact file. Don't delete anything else and end up bricking your device. After deleting restart the phone and that's it! You will have the LTE/WCDMA/GSM option in the network mode once you are booted and you will receive 4G signals if you are in an area with LTE coverage.

Does anyone know a signal bar mod that removes all signal bats so I only have the 3g signal?in my school everything but phones is allowed so ,I wanna be able to use my phone.
Please,do not say something dumb like, well why don't you turn airplane mode on?
I'm running gingeritis 3d beta VIII
I'm assuming that, contrary to your description, you don't just want to "remove the signal bars" since that would just be a visual change.
As best I can tell you want to still have 3g data without phone? In that case you would just set your preferred network to "EVDO only" either through Settings->Wireless&Networks->Mobile Networks->Network Mode (use this method if your rom has this menu) or opening your dialer and dialing *#*#4636#*#* -> phone info -> prefered network.

No no no, I want the bars to not be visible, as it would be a clear indication that its a phone

Hmm...so it was just a visual change you wanted. Guess I missunderstood.
Well, overlooking that you feel the authority in your school will believe it isn't a phone just because there aren't little bars up there (and btw, if they buy that you might want to consider transferring schools )...
Use Ninjamorph (or look up how to manually theme apks if you want to do it from a computer) to remove the corresponding image files and/or edit the xmls of the appropriate apks (which apks will depend on the rom and I'm not personally familiar with Gingeritis much less your specific release but I'd look for SystemUI.apk in /system/app first). I'm not completely sure if this will fall back onto some defaults or not but it's easy to test.
If just removing the files doesn't work, you could always just replace all the images you want with a replacement clear filler image so that all you see is the statusbar.
Either way, you may want to do a little reading up on theming apks so you have an idea of what to look for (i.e. res/drawable-hdpi where the images are located and how to edit them)
Maybe I should make a TMo theme for this...lol
I actually don't have much time right now or I'd give you more details (or at least check #1). But IMHO, it's better to learn this stuff than be told anyway. If you need more help, I'm sure there are themers out there that will help you further.
I use my phone daily in a non-Verizon network, so having Data Roaming enabled is very important for me. The new ROM I installed, however, does not have a menu option for enabling/disabling Data Roaming.
Does anyone know of a way to do this through script? Or maybe there is something that can be changed in "build.prop" (or another file) that would change the default setting of Data Roaming disabled to be enabled?

Thank you, but that isn't quite what I'm looking for. It looks like it could possibly work, but I I'm looking for a way to permanently turn the Data Roaming on. I don't care if I need to edit the ROM files before I flash them or if there is some sort of hack I can install/perform after the ROM is running.
Maybe there is a way to install the AOSP or stock version of the component that controls this? Does anyone know what component controls the data roaming?
hmm i dont know how could you achieve this....its a bit more advanced
Still looking for the magic bullet
I'm very interested in this as well.
Does anybody know if the Roam Control app is able to keep Data roaming on at all times? I have not been able to find a trial version to try it out...
Or is there any other way of keeping it on? For a Motorola Droid 3.
I have tried modifying build.prop with many different settings that I have found in other threads but nothing has worked so far. I need to re-enable data roaming manually maybe 20 times a day.
Thanks!
Nobody?
I sent a mail to the author of Roam Control asking if his app is able to do this but still no answer
I finally took the problem in my own hands and managed to make a small app that re-enables data roaming at the touch of a button.
I needs to be installed as a system app for it to work, but it works! :laugh:

I want to permanently enable data roaming but several Google searches have led me to only this thread. I have just downloaded Roaming Control and will tinker with it to see if it solves the issue of the constant nagging data roaming warnings.
I am confused. In my Jellybean settings there's a selection field titled "Show roaming reminder". Even though I have set it to "Never" it still gives a data roaming warning every single time. Either I am misinterpreting the use of that selection field or it's flat out broken or disabled by the carrier.
I was quickly able to activate my Samsung Vitality (Gingerbread 2.3.4) to Page Plus with some limitations to MMS and default browser and stable 3G. After two weeks of reading every post I could find, I decided I should ask here !
1. The ##Data# does not do anything so I am unable to edit the default "Cricket" internet/MMS settings and apply the Page Plus settings. This causes issues with the default browser... it doesn't work and with MMS message sending. I have been able to overcome the MMS issue by apply a Page Plus APN, but it doesn't correct the browser. Does anyone know how I can get into the ##DATA# mode ?
2. I use QPST to change the settings necessary for Page Plus including the latest 3G PRL. 1x is solid as a rock, but 3G comes up, sometimes I can get a single web page to load then it drops ... within a few min. it will drop again... any idea on this ? (I am trying to be brief so if you want my QPST/PRL info please ask and I will provide.
3. I know Samsung had a "generic" update to 2.3.6, but it is no longer showing as available for download .. does anyone have the update available for download ?
Thanks in advance

I assume this is the 2.3.6 update and I installed the program on my desktop. However, when I start the upgrade process .. it tells me to hold the following keys ; "camera key,USB cable". Not sure what this means. I assume the camera key is the key configured for the muve music launcher presently, but .. for the usb... scratching my head . I assume I need to use a key sequence to get into the correct mode.. can you tell me what that is? Really appreciate your reply.
I figured it out -- hold camera key while plugging in usb cable !

Turn your phone OFF
Pull Battery
Re-insert Battery
Hold down Camera button (MUVE) while pluggin in USB cable.
Hit Vol. up to select download mode.
Thanks ! I successfully updated to the 2.3.6. Unfortunately, I still have the problem with 3G, browser, mms msg and now with the Google Play Store. Steps taken -Used one click root to get root back, activated via *228, updated PRL, checked settings in QPST, identical as they were before.
1. Using same method as before to enable mms. I go into airplane mode, delete apn and load the pageplus apn via apn backup & restore app. Then MMS works. Do I need a special MMS.apk for page plus ?
2. Stock browser, dolphin both still have same issue on data (not wifi), connection error on any url load - Opera mini works in socket mode but has same problem if changed to http.
3. 3G has same symptom, it will reflect 3G in hybrid mode and in EVDO mode, but drops out comes back, drops out and cannot load web pages etc.. in CDMA mode only, have solid 1x like before and 1x speeds.
4. New problem, Google Play Store unable to connect unless I use marketaccess.apk to manually set to Verizon 310004 and emulate on boot. I expected the upgrade from market to google play to eliminate the need for me to continue to emulate the provider I am on in the US.
Thanks again !
Update
Update on browser issue. I called Page Plus .. told them I was using a "motorola Citrus" even tho they know I'm not, the rep looked at my settings and said hang on there are a couple of features that could be enable.. 5 minutes later I reactivated and the stock browser works. I wish I could tell you what features on my account they enabled, but they did not tell me. Prior to this my only browse ability was thru Opera Mini configured in socket mode... like I said .. http would not work. I assume they default "unknown" phones to WAP. So if you have a smartphone and are having problems with browsing with stock browser ...
This did not fix the APN issue. I still must use the pageplus apn file and restore it after every reboot or I cannot send MMS messages ...I have provided what is default on my phone ... after activation ? vs. what I enable to get MMS to work
3G - Same issue .. it will not stay connected in hybrid or evdo only mode
Market- Same issue I must use market enabler to emulate the US carrier code I am on after every reload .. the "emulate on boot feature" does not work !
As a side comment .. this is my 14th time attempting to correctly enter the different "spam protection code" ...
Does anyone have links to these files for the sch-r720?
You can try this but I cannot guarantee that this will work. but it has worked for me. first off go to about-software update, and their on the top right corner is a settings button where it says update over wifi connection and make sure that this box is checked. then take out the sim and then go to settings-mobile data-preferred network and change from gsm/umts to cdma/lte. now make sure that your phone is connected to a wifi connection. you will get a message saying no cdma connection was found. just hit okay and ignore it. then go to settings- apps- all- and find google services framework and then hit clear data then force stop. now go to settings- software update- check new. do NOT go to settings-about-software update-check new to check for updates because it did not work for me and kept telling me that their was no update. I do not know why but if its confusing to understand then make this note- if the check new option is under status then you are in the right place I thought I would post this because it was such a pain in the ass to look for this solution, and finally somebody that had found this posted it in a section that I cannot for the life of me remember to find it to give credit to. but this worked for me. and thought I would share to help all others out because it was difficult as hell to find the solution for me
I don't know if there is another thread out there that has this same info in it, if so i totally apologise. This is for people on android 5.0+ but also worked on previous android versions as well. Also this was just the way i choose to do it so that my LTE antenna would be totally off all the time.
1) Go into service mode *#0011*# hit menu:back next menu:key imput, type in "Q0"
2) #1UMTS
3) #1DEBUG SCREEN
4) #6PHONE CONTROL
5) #1DRX CONTROL
Click on LTE Rx0 And Rx1 off. Your phone will reboot by itself. When it turns back on it will only stay on 3g from now on unless you go back through those steps and turn it back on.
Not 100% sure if that is the most beneficial way to do it but when i didn't want 4g on at all to conserve data and battery life that was how i did it but i actually did it on accident the first time but after i figured out what i did i then used that method all the time especially now since android doesn't give the option to switch through mobile networks.
I got the hidden menu you described using *#0011#, but I can't get anything else to work. When I press the menu key, I see the menu and the option BACK, but nothing happens when I press it. I don't see the "next menu" step. Any advice? Could you maybe tell me how to do this like I'm 3 years old? I'm so annoyed cod the only way I can text on this verizon s4 is via mms since I switched to tmobile. I managed to get root but still haven't found a way to subvert the verizon smsc setting.
Thanks in advance!
