Ok guys I got a question!! I rooted my v10 on 5.1.1 and had my A/C calling on when I flashed the upgrade root package. phone started to get a bit buggie after awhile so I did a factory reset lost my A/C so I unrooted and try to reactivate it was a no go. I disabled it from my line then tried again and again and again. Did this for about 3 hours finally call Verizon they tried to help but there useless considering there reading from a script. So now I'm back to root with no A/C. I really like my A/C and they want me to update to 6.0 and I'm not giving up root no way in hell am I doing that does anyone know of a work around. I got a new SIM card coming in from Verizon hoping that may fix it. Any and all help is very much appreciated!!

Ok guys issue fixed wasn't the sim card it was timing! What I mean by that was when I reset the phone it kicked the A/C off so yes you will have to unroot phone to reactivate. I unrooted and deactivated my A/C from my Verizon account and waited a day and a half I then tried to reactivate it through the phone witch then in turn activated no problems. I reflashed the root tot and still have fully working A/C.

I've never had AC activated and was told that I could enabled to have data during calls. But I can't get it activated either. So the only way to enable it is on full stock? Do I have to do this through the website? When I click AC on my phone right now nothing happens at all. Thanks for any help.

How did you return to full stock? I can't find a thread for it...
You have to find the stock tot. Use lg up to restore and go online reactivate A/C on your line wait a few hours and activate on phone then use lg up to flash the rooted tot but use update so it saves your set up.

Sorry not reactivate - deactivate A/C 1st then follow the steps to restore and wait a bit I waited over night to do the reactivation of the A/C on my line and it worked perfect.

I'm at work now when I get out tonight I'll find ya the link to get the full stock KDZ file sorry it wasn't a tot.

Any ideas? I have a Plain Jane rooted TB that has been stuck in 1X despite (in order):
- rebooting
- pulling battery
- restoring a known good saved ROM from ROM Manager
- toggling enable on RevA
- installing jcase's rooted 1.70.605 OTA and MR2 radio
- factory reset
I am in midtown Manhattan. I should have stellar 3G/4G. Is there anything left to do but return the phone to VZ?

You should check your settings and see if your mobile network is on(obvious answer and I feel like you have probably done that). Make sure you dont have any apps that are turning it off i.e. juicedefender or any other apps that control your mobile network. It could be the ROM you are using so try and use your stock ROM and see if you get 3G/4G in that. Make sure your SIM card is in properly. I do not know if that will be an issue but it could help. Also along with ROMs make sure the ROM you are using is friendly with the radio you are using. I can not think of much else. Google it too and search this forum or others that might help too! Good luck.
The simplest and most obvious possibility that still has to be asked: Do you have the back cover on the phone?

I had the same problem you did. I used Bamf 3.0 and flash the newest leak radio. My phone all of the sudden the next day dropped 3G. I went into the VZ store today and told them my sim card died and they gave me a new one. It working now, so I said unroot your phone like I did and get a new sim card. Make sure you update to their newest software before going into the store.
Seem like alot of people on the forum are saying they are not getting 3G/4G lately after the new radio that was out. I got my radio the day it was leak.

Thanks. But I had my problem before I flashed the new radio. I've been using the original plain jane root from back in March. It worked two nights ago, was stuck in 1X the next morning.
Since I now have the new OTA stock is there an easy way to get it out of root or should I just follow the sticky instructions and go all the way back to original ROM?
Instead of taking it in you could also just give them(verizon) a call. I know they can see if your phone is rooted from there and many verizon workers have theirs rooted and might be able to help you!
Yeah mine worked 2 days ago too but yesterday it died I was using bamf for a while now. I flashed the radio before that too, all of the sudden it just dropped. The guy at VZ store told me that never happened before that a sim card just die like that.

Thanks, but I spoke to VZ last night. The rep was nice and all but said the factory reset should fix the problem (it didn't) He said the next step would be to replace the phone. I might call again tonight to see if I can bump up the tech support ladder to someone more knowledgeable. Still hoping someone here could help me out.
Like I said, I had the original plain jane root that everyone did back in March when the phone came out. No reason for it to suddenly get stuck in 1X the other day.
Ive had that problem twice now. The first time my 4g antenna stopped working for whatever reason. I replaced the battery cover and it worked again for a few days. When it stopped again I called verizon and they sent me a new phone which is probably what youre gonna have to do.
So... VZ is next-day mailing me a new phone. I wanted to exchange it in the city but they said once you have the phone for more than 14 days exchanges have to be done by mail. Still, I'd love to know why the phone died.
I flashed the ED05 stock package posted in the dev forum. Everything went well with the flash but when I rebooted, the phone went to VZW for activation and now I have no access to data network. Any ideas how to fix this?

I took a look through the forums and didn't see anyone else lose 3g with this package. Try a *228 and if that doesn't work, flash a different radio (ED04 or EC09) and try to *228 again. Can you make or receive calls/texts?
Worse comes to worse, reflash the ED05 package or flash a different ROM/stock package.
I had that happen once did a few reboots and started working all on its own. It was not with ed05 though.
If you flashed the ED05 with the SamsungPST and you lost data service you have two options (both verified to work)...
1. Login to My Verizon and swap your phone number to some other phone, activate it (*228) and then swap it back to your Fascinate.
2. Call Verizon and tell them you are not getting any data (but voice works ok) and that you would like your keys reset.
I have the same problem, ill try calling verizon tomorrow :s
I've actually tried different things now:
Connected to wifi, if I go into my verizon it says:
Your Mobile Number could not be validated, Please try again later.
When I try calling verizon, it says that my phone is not authorised.
When I dial *228 it unlocks successfully the phone, reboots, and then nothing!!
Help ??
Also I have tried going back to older versions, trying different roms but no data no where
Listen to pentafive. He's posted how to repair. Worked for me.
Update... It looks like you don't even need to *228 the other phone. Just get an ESN/MEID of some other VzW smartphone (that isn't currently activated), swap it on MyVerizon and then swap it back to the Fascinate. Then *228 your Fascinate.
Ok I called them and it worked, thanks everyone .
It was my first verizon phone so I could not try with another one.
Does anyone know why this happened ? To avoid it happening again ?
I am having the same issue. I have voice but no data. I don't have another Verizon smartphone to swap and the tech-support didn't know what "resetting the keys" meant. I am getting a replacement but I'd still like to know how to get this fixed in case it happens again. Thanks.

I recomend using odin instead of samsung pst! If you insist on using pst look up the official vzw stock ed05 thread in the dev section by pentafive. He has directions on how to keep from losing data when using pst.
I had the same proplem. No Data. I call verizon they had me pull batt waite five min replace batt reboot and i got my data working again.
Works
After asking if Tech Support could reset the "keys" for my phone, which they had no idea what that was, I asked if they could activate a different phone on my account then reactivate mine. He told me that would fix the problem if it was a network level problem (which it was.) He ended up resetting the data connection on the line and after a reboot my 3G was back. So, if Tech Support has no idea what "resetting the keys" means have them reset your data because the problem is a network level problem, not a phone level problem.
Also I used Odin and still got the lost data connectivity, so keep that in mind.
My motorola xt912's headphone Jack and Camera does not work. This happened after doing a system update a while back. I have read that I have to do a factory reset to get it back to the original software.
However, my phone is unlocked. I took it in to get it done and that store no longer exists. So I would not be able to unlock it again (for the Canadian Network). Would resetting it to factory settings get rid of the "unlock"?
Thank you!

I am in the US and was told by Verizon that the XT912 was sold unlocked (or was unlocked when it was updated to ICS). I don't know how to confirm that although on a recent trip to Canada I was able to buy a sim and use the phone to make calls on the Virgin Mobile Canada network so I'm pretty sure it is unlocked.
I never could get data to work in Canada though. There was a fix in the last official OTA from Verizon that sounded like it may address the data problem, but I have not had a chance to test that out.
I suggest you contact your carrier and see if they can confirm if the phone will stay unlocked after a factory reset. I suspect it will because a factory reset just clears user data and resets your phone back to default factory settings (I don't think it reflashes the firmware), but I'm not positive about that.

I just downgraded my Verizon LG G3 down to 10b from 12 and rooted it, did supersu and flashed TWRP and all is fine there. I then checked off Survival mode in supersu as well. When I went to my update section in settings I got the message that my phone is not yet registered. Now I did read those other threads that explain that when using a flash tool you need to pull out the Sim card, which I didn't do nor did any one of the guides that showed me what to do say anything about that step. So is the fix going to Verizon and buying another Sim card and then inserting it and doing a factory reset? Will I lose root if I do this? Is that basically what I do? Turn the power off, remove the old Sim replace it with the new one turn the phone back on go to settings and do a factory reset? Will the Sim activate that way or do I need to let Verizon themselves do this for me? How does the new Sim get reactivated for my account?
EDIT
And now I am noticing I am getting downgraded to 1X instead of 4G about a half hour after I reboot, happens every time. I assume that is due to the Sim card issue as well
EDIT #2 Damn now I notice my IMEI number is 0000 0000 0000 0000
Damn I guess I am screwed, thought I would have some answers by now lol. I regret rooting the phone....
Has this not happened to anyone else? Losing the IMEI number but the phone still works? The only major issue I seem to have is I can't use OTA to get back to build 12 because I get that message saying the phone is not registered yet and also about 20 minutes after starting the phone I all of a sudden lose 4G and it goes to 1X. I reboot it goes back to 4G and 20 minutes later back to 1X. I am hoping the not registered yet message is due to maybe a screwed up sim card and hopefully the 4G issue as well. If anyone has any ideas at all please reply. Also will reflashing the phone rebuild that efs partition that stores the IMEI number? As I am under the impression that totally reflashing back to stock rebuilds all the phones partitions.
HERE IS ANOTHER CLUE
When I go into settings in 1X mode, if I turn airplane mode on and then off again a few seconds later I go back into 4G mode for a short while then it goes back to 1X. I am really hoping my sim card is to blame for this issue as I will get a new one today to test it out.
Do some research and look at the G2 method to restore IMEI. Use the hints of how to downgrade version by tot method in connecting G3. It can be done. Try to stay off of Verizon in mean time.

Check this thread for your IMEI issue...it may work for you too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...-t3033445/post58915450?nocache=1#post58915450

Thanks a lot for the help guys. I was at work all day so I didn't see that 2nd link or I would have tried it before I did what I actually did. I went to the local Verizon store and told the salesman that in trying to get my phone to be able to use a PS3 controller (which is the truth) me and my buddy downloaded software onto the phone to alter it so it would allow for the controller to work with the phone so I could play games with it. Again all true I just left out the name of the software and I handed the guy the phone after telling him how my Sim card seems to be whacked out and my IMEI is gone. He changed out the Sim card and that did indeed fix the phone not registered issue and also the 4G problem was gone too. I was going to leave well enough alone when he said while your phone will work fine it is showing up as an unsupported device on my computer, it is still within the 14 day exchange period do you want me to swap it out with a new phone? I said that we altered the phone, wouldn't I have to pay for a new phone as that voids my warranty no? He said well I see you are eligible for a discount and since you bought this LG G3 near Valentines day I can offer you a free LG G Tab 8.3 tablet, I will knock off the 10 dollars payment per month from another phone that you are owed a discount on and basically all you have to pay for is the 40 dollar activation fee and sign a 2 year contract for the 10 bucks a month that you really won't be paying since I am knocking it off of another phone for you. Do that and I will just wipe this phone again as it works fine and we can easily fix it and I can just set you up here with a replacement and you will be good to go. I couldn't believe it lol. So I walked out of there with a new LG G3 plus a free (not really free since it is 10 bucks a month but he took 10 bucks off of a different phone which would not have happened if I didn't go there today) LG G-tab tablet AND I TOLD THE TRUTH!!!! It probably doesn't hurt that I now have 8 devices attached to my account and send somewhere around 360-400 dollars a month to them lol.
Glad it worked out for you! Yep, I'm sure it doesn't hurt that you're a non-benefiting "shareholder".
I have the VK810.4G (Verizon LG G Pad 8.3) too.
Hey guys!
As the titles says, I updated my G5 H831 (Canada, Fido) yesterday and the wifi stopped working. The slider is greyed out and will not turn on. When I tap the slider to enable wifi it slides over, but after exiting the settings app and reopening, it reverts to the greyed out off position. I've already tried and factory reset, battery pulls etc. Does anyone have any info on this or have had similar experiences?
Have you tried turning it on with O.K Google? If its set up try saying: "O.k Google, turn on Wifi" ?
I've tried turning it on in settings, notification menu and with "Okay, Google" to no avail. I'm hoping this will be fixed in the next update if it isn't a hardware issue.
I have had that kind of issue last year with my previous phone.
Have you restored your data with titanium backup?
Edit : your model can't be root so I think you didn't restore...

Sounds silly to wait for an update for a pretty necessary feature on a smartphone (unless you're lucky and have unlimited data?). Just replace the device under warranty- LG warranty lasts for 1 year. It definitely sounds like some sort of defect. Have you tried factory resetting? Always factory reset if you find an unexpected problem, or at the very least, the system cache partition.
Not sure what build your variant updated to, but I'm at the May 12A update on Verizon with no such issues

I tried a full factory reset (wipe all partitions). My phone is the Canadian Fido vatiant (unlocked,) and I have unlimited data with WIND here. Not sure how to go about getting a replacement device through warranty as Fido considers getting a phone unlocked voiding their warranty.

Didn't know you unlocked it. If it came unlocked, though, LG would be the ones to warranty it. Idk what Fido is, but it's an LG issue.
Fido is just a carrier here in Canada. How do I go about getting the LG factory warranty?
Update:
So I tried turning WiFi on again out of habit. Lo and behold it turned on! Not entirely sure what caused it to stop working (or start working again, for that matter) but it's working now. I'd still like to figure out why it quit but I'm not too sure how to go about doing that.
I see its working for you again, but just in case you run into issues in the future, Fido should be able to direct you to the LG Warranty process for you. I've had a few warranty issues in the past 5+ years with my Verizon carrier and I just call them and they set up shipment for me .
Anytime I've done it, they overnight me a refurbished phone, but idk if that's a Verizon thing.. they definitely send it to LG for warranty, but idk if most people have to wait for repairs and my carrier is just cool and will give you the refurbished one.

What solved this for me was removing the sim card and turning on the phone without it. As soon as there was no sim card in the phone the MAC address returned to normal and wifi worked again. I put the sim card back in and it continued to work perfectly.

I tried what you said and it didnt work for me. This never happen till i updated my rs988 recently.
I too have the same problem on my LGG5. I tried everything to get the WiFi button to work. I took it into Rogers and they sent it to get repaired and when I got it back it worked for 10mins. It went back to being grayed out as soon as I started to reinstall my stuff on the phone. So they sent it to get repaired again. I think that since I've been without a proper phone now for 1 month that if I get it back and it doesn't work that I will have to try and get LG to replace it. After all the phone is only 3 months old. Has anyone else managed to get them to replace the phone without difficulty?
