Can anyone offer any suggestions here? I recently tried upgrading my wife's phone from stock LG to Illusion....and everything went great, except for the fact that no matter what I do, the cellular network name (Verizon Wireless in this case obviously) will never populate. For clarification - everything works, data, calls, etc. but no carrier name is ever seen in the quick settings tiles as shown, and in settings > about phone > status the network simply says "Unknown". I personally have the exact same phone, same 23B modem, same identical setup in every way, and yet mine for some reason shows Verizon Wireless all the time just perfectly fine.
I'm at my wits end...and my OCD is killing me on this one! I've tried dirty flashing, full clean flashing, with and without wiping the internal storage, flashing the 10B, 11C, and 12B modems back and forth as well, tried re-flashing the 23B modem obviously, tried adjusted the global vs. LTE settings, played with the APN's, normal and soft reboots, install of a CM12 nightly for comparison, let the initial phone setup go through solely on mobile data, even fully tot'ing back to 10B and repeating everything again in an attempt to fix! Can anyone offer any possible help or suggestions here? They would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!

Alright.... I dont have enough posts to put this in the development thread. I took the omni rom ota update and like a few people my phone rebooted to the invalid software please take this phone to a verizon store..... I odined back to stock and eventually got things back to normal or so I thought. Now it seems that anytime I am on an aosp based rom my signal is borked. When I am on a touchwiz rom everything seems fine. It does seem to want to go to global under mobile networks and my singal strength seems way lower than normal also the connection seems much slower. So i odined back to stock again and backed up the apns went back to liquid and restored apns. That didn't work. I can receive and make calls no problem. I can receive sms and mms. If i go into mobile settings and change it from global to LTE then turn on and airplane mode it will send messages for maybe a minute then it cuts back out. I am assuming my next step is to get a new sim card. If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate some input. I have been searching this and other sites since the 24th when I took the ota and have had no luck. I have been on this site and fiddling with my androids since the original droid. I didn't think I was a total noob but this has me stumped.
I am on MDK and my IMEI seems fine I actually Just noticed my IMEISV says "00". So help please!
You're having problems with SMS?
Try going from TW to the GPE rom and see if if keeps working on that, then if it does go from that to whatever rom you want.

Hello, all.
I seem to have a tricky one. Two days ago, I decided to give CM12 a try on my OG Moto X dev edition. Turns out I couldn't forgo Xposed, so I reverted to my nandroid backup. The install of CM12 was preceded by a wipe of data and system and an install of CM11, followed by a dirty flash of CM12, as per the rom instructions. Both CM12 and reverting to Kitkat went well, with no noticeable hiccups.
When I booted to CM12, I noticed my weather app referencing a location in Colorado. I live in Arizona, so that's quite a bit of error, but I didn't pay additional attention to it at the time. After I got back to Kitkat, I realized it was still giving me an incorrect location. After some further investigation, I determined my Net location was very off, but my device GPS was spot on. I have a VZW network extender at my house (acts like a mini cell tower and routes calls over the home broadband) so I suspected it was giving out the wrong location. While it was powered down, I was getting a correct Net location, but once it powered back up, I was back to the precise same wrong location. I have tried rebooting the extender, router, cable modem, and phone. I have also cleared the cache and dalvik cache on the phone.
To further complicate things, this is not consistent. My dad has a Note 3 which, when connected to the extender, has correct net and gps location. Phones expected to be connect the extender were confirmed by dialing #48.
Is there something I'm missing here? I been a fair flash-ohalic on previous phones, but far less on this one, but I've never seen something like this before. Thanks ahead for any help.
I have since reverted to full stock 4.4.4 via fast boot recovery files. I tried that pure, as well as Eclipse ROM (4.4.4). Both still exhibit the location error. I also cleared my location history from Google. Sigh...
I did the build number Darklord N5 (looking at settings), Kernal 3.4.0 Kernal now I only have data for a few min then it say's no data connection? It's a Sprint Note 3 and still using Sprint. But the model number no longer says SM-900P and now says SM-9020C. The file I used was DarkLordN5.RC2.1.SamsungViet.vn Sorry I'm a little new to this but I do tend to follow directions well.
It's like Sprint lets me have data and then see's something it doesn't like about the mod and shuts off my data. It always works at first then goes away within 5 min and says no data connection and roaming is turned off. And if I get data again will I still have LTE? So far I just saw 3G when it was working.
Other than that I love the update but I can't do without mobile data! Please help. I've looked everywhere I could think of on here and it's been almost two weeks without data.
Thanks!
Jim
Bump??? Please help???

That rom is kinda old and has bugs. If you want to use the latest note 5 port, I recommend http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-base-n9200zcu2apa1-stablefast-31-01-t3308842
It's based off the last version of darklord's rom and tweaked/fixed it's issues like youtube lag...
It's tricky to get data from it. I use Ringplus so it might work without tinkering with sprint natively.
Just install rom normally, with SPR csc, and see if you get data like that.
If it doesn't here's what I did:
I had to install it with the XAS csc (the SPR csc won't let me change apn's but you're free to try). I then switch radio to cdma or anything else until the apn settings show up AND can be edited in Mobile Networks settings(LTE radio won't me edit). Then I delete all apn's because it won't use the custom ringplus apn i put in by default(yes, I choose it and it still won't use it). Once i'm all done, i set radio back to "cdma/gsm/lte" to get back lte/cdma data (for some reason the "cdma/lte" setting won't work for me). I used app's to get me to the radio and apn settings. There's a few out just take your pick.
Might take some trial and error to get the apn's to show up but in the end i have zero issues with data. good luck.
Thank you very much for your detailed reply. I was wondering if it was old. But being pretty new to this I'm going to have to do some research to try to digest all you said! Although yesterday I did successfully replace the screen/chassis of my old Note 3 which required switching over many components. Now just waiting on a new power on switch. So I'll be back.....
Hello.
I recently purchased an unlocked AT&T model V10 and am using it on Metro PCS.
The phone is having a hard time making and receiving calls. It will take a long time for an outbound call to begin (or will not even go through after a lengthy wait), and many calls are not being received and going straight to voicemail.
The problem and severity is intermittent, sometimes it will work without issue and other times no calls can be made or received for some time.
The data connection appears to be solid whenever it is being used, it just appears there is a problem with the phone trying to negotiate from a data connection to a GSM cellular connection.
Any input would be greatly appreciated as I have been searching around and have not had any luck. I've tried reseating the SIM, factory resets, etc.
Thank you.

I'm running the factory AT&T install, so no custom rom - I will try LG Bridge and see if there are any available updates.
Thanks for the tip, I haven't done much with LG phones before - I am certainly open to rooting the phone / trying a custom ROM to see if that will sort things out. It just seems like either a setting (I tried all different APN settings to no avail) or a software issue as it does work, just not consistently.

Thanks, I noticed that I was having trouble finding an update past H90021w online and the phone shows no update available (I was previously on H90020j).
So now Wi-Fi calling is an option, however it does not let me enable it, it just sits on "Processing" until eventually it gives me an error connecting with the network. I turned it on manually through the SVC menu and it shows it as enabled in the settings, but I don't think it is actually working as it doesn't give any indication as to whether or not it s on a Wi-Fi call.
Looks like I'm running out of options and may need to go with a different phone.

yea you had bad luck with this one, v10 is great phone, but no custom or anything. I am luchy i have 960a, so everything works haha
OC1 firmware, unlocked/rooted.
I had been having trouble getting data connectivity with PagePlus and had been messing with APN settings. Finally, I got data connectivity and everything seemed to be working fine after I went into the testing menu via the dialer (*#*#4636#*#*) and set the radio band to auto. Then, I wanted to upgrade from 4.4.4, I flashed a new Slim ROM. Once that process completed and I booted, my connectivity was completely gone. Before I was only having trouble with data, but now even when I try to make a phone call it says "No mobile network available."
I've tried changing things in the testing menu, adjusting APN settings, and I even did a full wipe and flashed back to 4.4.4, but nothing I've done has worked. I tried the SIM card in an old S3 and I can make calls and text, but no data.
I've spent the entire day researching and trying different things, but I'm at a loss now. I'm probably going to buy a newer phone anyway, but I'd still like to troubleshoot this one. I'm just wondering if somehow I fried the radio or something?
Thanks!
