I recently got myself a galaxy note from bell and it has not been what I expected. The phone works great for other non-aws providers but a nightmare with wind.
I installed several different modems, not knowing what works the best. Also forced it with *#2263#. However the result are ultimately the same. I'm constantly getting signal drops even though I have 4/5 bars. I'm unable to send texts or make calls even when the bars are near full. The data is essentially unusable at all times.
I have tired the phone with different sims which seemed to be working perfectly fine. Is there anyone having this issue as well or have a solution for it?
If I'm not mistaken, Wind uses the same frequencies as T-Mobile. Perhaps you could read the threads relating to their modems, settings, for some advice.

Yes, I have tried several different models for 1700MHz , all of which have the same problem. I'm able to connect to the network and says I have good reception but I get cut off A LOT!

I select default wind. Not sure what more I have to do.
Are you on Gingerbread or ICS?
I had huge problems at first with Wind Mobile as well until I switched to the TELUS modified modem. People recommend Blaze but in my experience, it was just as bad as yours was.

I'm currently on ICS using icsblaze, I have also tried using gb but I didn't see a difference. Is it possible to link me to the modem that you are using?
I finally figured it out! I had to setup the APN manually, now it works as expected.

Thank you gentlemen for your suggestions. I cannot delete the factory apn, or edit it. I saw there was a mod to remove it, but it's been removed. Anyone know another way to remove/edit it?
As for the steps people have been having success with, after following the steps, it not only still doesn't work, but I don't ever even see the GPS signal in the status bar.
Anyone have any other suggestions?

I had the same issue. Couldn't even see the GPS symbol in the status bar. But following those instructions got it working for me.

Flash your nandroid of cm. Once it boots up, wipe cache and davlik, then flash the 33 modem. If you don't have one do a clean install of cm, flash gapps, then flash the 33 modem. Go into your APN settings. Delete all of the ones in there except the one you are using. Reboot and let me know if that works.

The jb and/or 33 works. 33 displays att instead of maritime. That's the only difference I have noticed.

I deleted all of the APNs except for 'ATT Phone'. Not sure if that is the default one or not. If it is not, you can simply edit the default one that can not be deleted and just make it identical to 'ATT Phone'. The info for that apn is on xda somewhere but here it is just in case....
Name: ATT Phone

Bearer: Unspecified
Reboot after changes are made. Then install "GPS Status" app if you are not using that already. Turn off WiFi and 'WiFi & mobile network location'. Then test GPS using that app to see if it detects gps/sats.
This worked for me and I had the same symptom you are having. My thinking is that it was not happy with the other apns being in there. Which makes sense because stock/slick/snow roms are built off of stock and they only have one apn.

Well still didn't owrk on stock jb, but GPS is working in EVERY other ROM i've tried. Wierd.

GPS on this phone seems to be kind of a mystery.
I have been using TWRP since day one, I've run CFX from original development, as well as SnowJB, Stock ATT 20j, SlickJB, Rootbox, CarbonRom, AOKP and CM10.1 from android development, and now LiquidSmooth, and I have NEVER had an issue with GPS. It actually locks faster than my 2010 tomtom (350LMT?). I have never taken any action toward ensuing that my GPS works aside from running GPS status after flashing a new rom.

Same.
On two occasions I was unable to get a lock. Once I had WiFi disabled, so I enabled it, got a lock, then proceeded to disable WiFi and haven't had an issue since. The next time I simply walked outside of the building I was in, and instant lock.

Yeah, literally the only issues I have EVER had with my GPS have been caused directly by the building I was in.
I did have an issue with HSPA not wanting to connect once after flashing an NFC fix, but even that was temporary. On that note though, I have yet to be able to get NFC to work on an AOSP rom.
EDIT: NFC works fine on LiquidSmooth. Did not even turn on with Rootbox or CarbonRom.
Yeah my issue is that I don't even see the GPS icon in the status bar. Nothing. The only time I get a lock is when I enable help from wifi and cell signals.
It is really frustrating because almost every ROM I use the GPS works, but as soon as I go back to stock rooted JB GPS is gone.
I'm beginning to think that my file structure might be the culprit. I have multiple sdcard directories (labaled 0,1, etc.) and several erroneous ext_card directories. I'm thinking I might have to just scrub the entire phone and restore it to bone stock, update JB OTA, and root it, to get it working, but I would really like to avoid this, as it's a butt ton of work.

so I am happy to report that I finally got gps working again. for me it involved going completely back to stock (via LGNPST). then following the slick rom guidance for fixing gps and actually flashing slick ROM. at the end when gps was working in slick ROM I flashed stock jb again and behold it was working. the key step here for me was flashing back to stock.
thanks to all who helped me with this process!

But when I'm using this APN settings bellow

I hope I am not intruding here, but this thread is the closest to what I am looking for (stock) and I figured that any one of you could probably answer this question.
I do not have direct access to the phone and need to pass this on to my son, so please dont skip any steps, assuming knowledge. I have never even held an HTC phone yet. My son absolutely loves it though and has me intrigued. ?
Anyway, he has an "HTC One" that he purchased here in the USA, at a T-Mobile store.
I know that with my Samsung, there is not only the Samsung line name (Note 2), but there is also a specific Model # that Sprint puts into the phone (in my case, SPH-L900). And then, even from there, it divides up further into US & International versions, each with its own model #, even within the same carrier.
I am thinking that maybe it is the same for the HTC One line?
My son looked in the Info" screen, but all it says is "HTC One" and nothing else.
Please, where should he go to find this information?
Or is this not relevant in the HTC world?
He wants to stay with the Factory ROM, but Root it. I know applying the wrong tools can quickly brick a phone.
Can someone help me with this please? Once I have the right tool, then I can take it from there. Thanks!

The only other two things I can think of that might work are go into the APN settings and click 'reset to default' reboot and see if it works. And try registering on another carrier in the network operators menu - you should get an error that your SIM isn't supported and then manual re-register on T-Mo.
Update: Straight Talk's website now tells you the apn setting you should be using, to do this visit the link at the bottom of this post and follow the directions. The apn settings in this post should be the settings all new users are assigned, checking the link would tell you for sure though.
Just a heads up, if you're using Straight Talk's BYOP sim card and your data quit working, you may have been transitioned to new apn settings. I read about it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2310215 in the Nexus 4 forums.
It seems users there lost all mobile data connectivity after their service renewed. The new apn settings seemed to have restored their data connectivity. I suggest making a second apn setting on your phone with the new settings I've posted below. The reason why I suggest a second apn is so you can easily switch between apns if you lose data connectivity on the new apn, I see it as an easy troubleshooting step down the road.
Here is the new apn

From what I've gathered, there are two different At&t apn settings for straight talk's byop sim card, either att.mvno or tfdata. I use to be on att.mvno for my apn, but when I changed to their lte sim card, my apn settings became tfdata.
I'm not sure cdma phones have programmable apn settings.

I have had problems sending mms on the i777 on non-stock based roms such as cm. I had better luck getting mms to go if I disconnected from wifi and waiting for the phone to establish a data connection before sending the mms. I never had much luck with toggling airplane mode on and off to get an mms to go. If it didn't go the first time, I'd just forward the mms I was trying to send to the same person that I was trying to originally send it to, normally the forwarded one went. I decided to forward it to them because it took less time than making a new mms message all over again. hope that helps.
In the mms proxy field put
66.209.11.33 Instead or try 66.209.11.34

You may get faster speeds, but you're not getting true LTE, because our device simply doesn't have the necessary hardware.
But I'm glad you're getting better speed, I agree with trevor, please share your setup!

Just a heads up, if you're using Straight Talk's BYOP sim card and your data quit working, you may have been transitioned to new apn settings. I read about it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2310215 in the Nexus 4 forums.
It seems users there lost all mobile data connectivity after their service renewed. The new apn settings seemed to have restored their data connectivity. I suggest making a second apn setting on your phone with the new settings I've posted below. The reason why I suggest a second apn is so you can easily switch between apns if you lose data connectivity on the new apn, I see it as an easy troubleshooting step down the road.
Here is the new apn
Name: Straight Talk
APN: tfdata
Port: 80
MMSC: http://mms-tf.net
MMS Proxy: mms3.tracfone.com
MMS Port: 80
The new APN settings can also be viewed on Straight Talk's website here:
http://straighttalksim.com/support-data.php#
I hope somebody finds this useful and hopefully doesn't cause confusion.

I am activating Straight Talk bringing my i777 S2 from ATT. They told me to use the same settings as you've listed above. How long did your activation take? I got them on the phone at 11am and it is now 8pm. I'm still waiting - Is that normal?
Thanks

Well it depends, are you porting your number or are you getting a new number from them? When I activated my straight talk sim card, I got a new number and was up in running in minutes, if not instantly.
Hey guys! Just activated my evo on Ting about a week ago and LTE doesn't seem to work on any AOSP roms.
It connects fine on Sense and speeds are great. On Pac (my primary) it just doesn't connect; under status in settings it does say LTE for the network, but it says disconnected.
Calls/texts work fine though, and if I switch to CDMA/EvDo, 3G works fine as well. I've tried updating profile/PRL in sense then going back to AOSP multiple times, but to no avail.
Does anybody have any ideas?
Thanks!
I have an idea...stop using AOSP.
But seriously, you could try installing the firmware again. See how that might help.

Haha, I've always been vanilla man. Sense is nice, but it's not my cup of tea. I'll try updating the firmware again and get back to you.
EDIT: Same thing! Frustrating...
Have you tried earlier versions of firmware? You know you can flash backwards right?

Keep in mind some versions of firmware from capts thread require an additional touch panel zip for aosp roms to work. Make sure you read thoroughly.

Saw that. But the post says not to flash the touch panel zip on AOSP roms cause it'll cause the screen to be unresponsive...
"If you plan on using an older base ROM, an AOSP ROM, or older version of recovery, then you should NOT install the below standalone file (as it will cause your touch screen to be unresponsive)."
Ting APN
Not sure if you still need this, but you have to update the APN info for LTE to work.
In AOSP rom, go to voice dialer and say "Open APNs". Next, open the LTE internet APN. Update the APN value to n.t8.ispsn. Press menu > commit modifications. Do the same thing for EHRPD internet APN. This should activate LTE for you.
Dammit guys, it's happening again. After the intermittent data drops on CM11, LTE just stopped working. The icon shows, but nothing connects. 3G works fine. Tried reflashing different roms, and LTE only works on Sense. Tried flashing various different Ting APNs which usually works, but nothing. Manually edited APNs, nothing. Updated PRL and Profile, nothing. I don't use much mobile data but this is really frustrating.

Hey Andrew - did you get this working? I can't stand sense and have had my evo for a month on Ting. I've tried some of the flashable zips with cm11 and Omnirom, but can't seem to get LTE and 3G to work at the same time. I'm curious if it's worked for anyone.
Thanks!
No, unfortunately. I ended up switching to the Nexus 5 on TM shortly after. I'd highly recommend it, especially if you use a lot or end up on L or XL on Ting.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Good luck!

No problem... I just switched to Ting - had a nexus 4 on T-Mobile, but smashed it. Thanks for your help!
Any news on getting LTE on your Ting EVO? As with the OP, I've had limited success flashing the various APNs out there. If you've found a solution that works, I'm interested in the details.

I had working LTE for a while on AICP, but then it stopped working after installing another rom and I couldn't get it back. However fizbanrapper's post in the liquidsmooth thread got LTE working again for me on Ting, seems to have the correct APN settings and it works flawlessly. I'm on Liquidsmooth but I assume it will work on other AOSP roms as well.

Awesome. Glad it worked for you. Did you just have to do step A, or did you have to use the rewritten apns-conf?
If the apns file was a necessary step, I'll put in a little more effort and make it a standalone flashable zip file.

To get LTE working on Ting AOSP 4.4+ HTC EVO 4G LTE
If the above does not fit your situation 100%, read no further or your device will get more bugs than Miley Cyrus's....
Even if the above fits you 100%, try this at your own risk. I'm by no means an advanced user and certainly wouldn't call myself a developer.
A. The APN menu
Download & install the Google Gesture Search app from the Play Store. Open it, say yes to the defaults and wait the 20 seconds it takes to index your system. Once all of that is done, use your finger to draw "A", "P", "N" on the screen. This will bring up a list of search results. Choose APNs settings. If there is a list of APN's already there, one of them says something about LTE internet. You can modify the existing values to match those shown below. Otherwise, in the APNs screen, hit the plus to add a new APN. Give it the following values:
Name: LTE
APN: n.t8.ispsn
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
Server: Not set
MMSC: http://mms.plspictures.com
MMS proxy: 68.28.31.7
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 120
Authentication type: Not set
APN type: default, mms
APN protocol: IPv4
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
Bearer: Unspecified
MVNO type: None
Save the APN. Touch the radio button to the right of the APN to select it. Hit the home button. Cycle airplane mode. You should be able to connect now. I think this alone will get your LTE working, but...
B. If you're not connecting yet:
You might want to play around with some of these settings. The APN protocols can probably just as easily be IPv4v6 instead, but it defaulted to v4, so that's where I left it and I'm not messing with it now. Also when I first connected, I had the MMSC set to http://mms.sprintpcs.com and changed it to plspictures later. I doubt that was important, but like I said already, I'm in over my head here. It's entirely possible that when LTE goes to connect for the first time, that it gets pissed if it doesn't see sprintpcs in that URL. I don't know...
If there were APNs already listed when you performed step A, but LTE doesn't work yet, modify all instances of n.ispsn to ad the t8 in n.t8.ispsn. Also if you show pamsn, modify it to show t8.pamsn. These are all correct values for Ting.
There shouldn't be a need to do this, but you could also try setting your MCC to "310" and your MNC to "00". I haven't personally tried that MCC or MNC, but I've seen those values for Ting elsewhere. If you're still having trouble change the MCC and MNC back , then proceed to step C.
C. If you're still not connected:
Attached is the Ting APN zip file you can flash to help restore Ting LTE. Note that if you perform this step, you will most likely have to go back and redo step A before LTE will work, though you might not if you're adventurous and want to take a risk and flash the zip after first boot. Either way, make a nandroid backup before flashing this.
It should be flashed after the ROM & kernel, but prior to first boot (though it could still work even when flashed after first boot). This overwrites the existing apn-conf.xml file.
D. Last resort:
Ok, if you haven't made a nandroid yet, you really really need to do so now. This works with some ROMs, but causes others to bootloop (even if you follow all of the instructions exactly) and essentially does the same thing as step A but is a bit more forceful about it.
This should only be flashed after first boot. Additionally you want to go through steps C and A before this step will work. This flash overwrites the data file you populated from step A.
Going through step A is still necessary because some additional files get changed when you access the APN settings menu and when you save a new APN. Most ROMs use those additional files to call BS and either bootloop or throw enough system errors to force you to restore the nandroid that you wisely made as was suggested several times before.
Those additional files work differently from ROM to ROM, so I can't make a zip file that works nicely with all ROMs. Or at least I haven't figured it out yet, anyway.
Took a few tries, but the "Last Resort" fix worked for me. Thanks!
I had success with the zip from Step C on CM11 (ocarinaz's build from 6/4 with the 5/8 boot.img).
I've been satisfied with the ROM so I haven't experimented further yet. Will definitely share any findings in this thread if I get the urge for a new ROM.
Thanks for the awesome work on this!!

This appears to work on my s3 as well. Did a nandroid backup just to be on the safe side but, it worked. I wonder why cyanogenmod has decided to hide the apn settings in cm 11?

I rooted my fathers Ting Evo 4g LTE, went through the Dev unlock and rumrunner S-off etc and put the latest cm11 nightly (from the cm download page) on his phone and I could not get data to work at all. So I looked around and found several places like this that said it had to do with the APNs and so I added manually the APN listed and still nothing. it would send sms and phone calls but no data, it wouldn't even say 1X, 3G, or LTE above the signal bars. I moved onto step B, nothing. Step C and flashed the zip file, nothing. And still nothing with the last resort zip. The closest I got was when the 3G symbol appeared above the signal bar but it simply would not connect to the internet. In the quick settings dropdown the signal bars remained orange and there were no up/down indicators at all.
I tried different zips from the Ting forums and some from the Optimus G forums, wiping and reflashing CM11 often to make sure the zips weren't conflicting, and still absolutely nothing! I am really at a loss here. I had to go through and run the JB 4.1 RUU and immediately 3G was working again and everything. Does anyone have any ideas on this?
