Hi everyone.
I bought an LG v10 from ebay and thought it was the global version, well it turned out it's at&t h900 version. It came with lollipop and came rooted also xD I upgrated to MM using lgup and then my phone has no service anymore ( I live in France) the basebands are unkown, I have no signal and it wouldn't ask me to unlock the sim either. I thought of flashing a modem.bin from a global KDZ file, what do you think about that?
I think root will solve my problem and since there's no root in MM I tried to downgrade to LP but my phone has an antiroll back feature -_- so now I'm stuck with a phone with no service.
If anyone has an idea I'll be very greatful.
thanks
It looks like your H900 is not seeing your carrier APN. Download 'Offline SIm database' from the Play Store run it and it will show you your APN details which you can then enter manually. You will find the APN under mobile networks.

It's not an internet connection problem. I have no mobile service, I can't make calls or anything and it won't detect my carrier.
As I stated it cannot see your carrier. Try the app I suggested.

I've tried it, no luck
Strange because I bought this H900 on eBay and it was the same, would not connect to my carrier (EE) UK. Have you entered all the setting listed, there are at least 7 items to enter.

Right details. Phone doesn't make calls it just ends straight away and it doesn't receive texts. Data works on Orange SIM card I believe the phone was used on orange. IMEI matches that under battery. I don't think it's blocked as data works? It says Orange TMobile in notification area.
I tried other sims Three and GiffGaff and it doesn't prompt for unlock code however only says emergency calls only. Any ideas people?
It's either partially unlocked or you need to flash another modem.

I'll try another modem but KH3 reported working on O2/giffgaff. How can it be partially unlocked? What does that even mean?
That it may look unlocked to all networks but it actually is unlock to some carriers, or something.
Get galaxysim unlock and check it out.

Oh I already tried that app and it says unlocked everything says unlocked! Starting to think it is blocked now...
Try another modem.

Thanks for the help but four modems and an update to jellybean later it's still emergency calls only. Got to be blocked.
Call your carrier & find out.
Im on giffgaff uk, using the UHLPH modem.

Do i need to use GetRIL too or should that be enough on its own?
Got this on a trade. I opened up browser and it seems previous owner was looking up on how to retrieve msl. I opened up the service menu and it says cert failed. I odined back to full stock and even did the 727 key pad and it still says the same thing. Does a Sim card have to be inserted to even connect to the sprint network? It has no bars with the little x over the antenna. Is there anything I van do with this phone? Its on nc5 and imei is different from what's on the housing but both read clean and register as sprint note 3. Maybe LCD was replaced?

Did you activate this device with Sprint ? If so, have you tried to update your PRL and a reboot after you odined back to stock ? A sim card is for international use.

I'll have to borrow my friends sprint sim card. I have another motherboard and it connects to the sprint network without a Sim card. That's how I know something is wrong

Just wanted to update by saying I downgraded the modem and that fixed it.

Can you use other off brand but ATT network SIM card like H20 or Net10 to download LL to update this phone?
I got the update using an NET10 SIM. It went smoothly.

Thank you.
So it looks like any AT&T variant like Net10, H20, etc will work.

Not any but most. Cricket Wireless for example will not work. I don't have a list unfortunately.
I believe the deciding factor has to do with if the carrier uses the AT&T network or their own. A carrier can still use AT&T towers without actually using the AT&T network. It's confusing ...

Can you explain the steps? Did you have to register your Net10 SIM card first?
I used to use NET10, but the line it's not active any more. However, when I put the SIM into my phone, AT&T network is reported and only emergency calls are allowed. I checked the update through a WiFi and could download and run the update. Thereafter I can use it with T-Mobile and Cricket. Though Cricket uses AT&T network, you cannot get the update through them. The network is reported as cricket instead of AT&T, maybe that's why.

Does anyone have any advice with this? I heard AT&T released an update not long ago to allow the fingerprint reader play nice with phone cases.. How do get this update if I only have cricket?

Hmm, have you tried removing you sim and trying to get the update over wifi? Not sure if that would work, or how you would do it. Also maybe keep an eye out for someone to grab and post the AT&T update zip
I have an old AT&T Sim card. I might try popping it in the v10 and see if that works.

Ok Kool, keep me posted. I have an unlocked T-Mobile Note 5 that I may end up using on Cricket
Come to think of it, my Note5 has a bad IMEI on T-Mobile, but it did do an update over wifi
Any news with this?
I tried using an old AT&T Go prepaid Sim card and had no luck with it.
I think I'm just going to sell this phone and very an unlocked phone since the v10 I have is for AT&T and I have cricket.

I will be travelling out of the country for 3 and a half months in May. I am on Fulmics 4.2 currently, Ringplus.
I planned to flash PrimeGSM to gain GSM service and pop in a sim while there to use, then flashing back to Fulmics 4.2 backup (or Stock Sprint ROM if there are any issues) when returning to the US.
Would using a ROM to gain GSM service (my sprint g3 is not international sim unlocked AFAIK) and then returning to CDMA service cause issues with the phone? I know that flashing a ROM doesn't change or alter your phone's activation status, just want to know if doing this will cause any irreversible changes to the phone, never done this before. Will test it when getting there to see if it actually is international sim unlocked by the previous owner (Bought it used) or not., if not will flash PrimeGSM rom for ls990.
Thanks!
So did u use prime gsm? And dod it work?

I actually am using Fulmics. What you do is get on wifi,download Mobile Network Settings app from play store, put in the GSM sim and reboot, go into that app and change mode to GSM/UMTS. Let it read the sim and then change apn for the carrier if youre using data and done
