Hi Guys,
Quick question for you experts. I use my Rezound as a 3G device, because I am on Page Plus and not Verizon, so I am only looking for 3G Speeds here.
I am facing this issue:
I get full 3G data speeds on the Stock ROM and let's say the Vennasaur Sense 4 ROM, WITHOUT ANY SIM in the phone.
However, when do the same exact process to install Newt's XXX, I get NO DATA, until I pop a generic NON LTE 4G SIM, and then, I am only getting 1X Data speeds ...
Restoring back to Stock or Vennasaur gets me 3G again :/...
Now I know that most of you don't care or would know much about Page Plus and using a Rezound with it, but, can someone tell me some of the technical reasons or differences between the two ROMs I mentioned above, that might be causing this data inconsistency between them?
I am Rooted (Unlocked Bootloader), Stock Earliest GB Build, and when I flash any of the Sense 4 ROMs, I apply the GB Firmware update patch...
Any ideas guys? Thanks for all your help!
Maybe LTE was disabled?
Check network settings.
Thanks for your reply. LTE is supposed to be disabled, since Page Plus doesn't have 4G.
I think the key lies with the way the two ROMs telephony works? Venasaur doesn't need the SIM inside to make 3G work, while XXX doesn't get data, period, until I put a NON-VZW SIM and then I finally get 1X data...
I even tried writing the proper 3G keys using CDMA WS to the 9K port of the Rezound, but the settings are NOT sticking or saving. I want to do it manually, but the ##778# and the ##Program# menus ALSO don't work in the XXX ROM ...
I am sure someone has the right answers for this, please help guys! Thanks!
Not sure if this works. You can make a note of APN settings when you are on vanesaur and create a new APN on newt ROM with those settings. Sorry if this is completely irrelevant

Sorry, didn't see you're not on vzw.
Is the network setting on "CDMA auto (PRL)"?
That's the network setting for CDMA 3G.
Sent from my Clean ROM DE 1.4 Rezound
Hi Guys and Girls,
After finally managing to get through the whole noobie learning how to root/backup/flash etc, I noticed later on that 4G no longer appears, checking through the network operators and network mode, non of them mention it, only 3G
This was active and working before I did the changes, so am a little puzzled. Also I noticed I was receiving text messages from Vodaphone regarding updates etc, but I receive non now.. so not sure if that's also linked?
Phone details are
C6833
4.4.2
Kernel 3.4.0 Jackie
14.3.A.0.757
Would be grateful for the support to get this back, not sure if I can simply call my network provider and ask for some sort of update to be resent?
Hello.
Watch in settings if 4G/LTE is selected or prefered.
Hi,
I used to have the option for 4G and a network from vodaphone for 4G
Now I only have the LTE preferred option
:/

I can't help you, sorry.
Maybe a problem with ROM or kernel you use.
You can change ROM, kernel, or full wipe your phone if you want te get 4G and other users can't help.

4g = lte
How come no symbols show up now to let you know what your connected to, when I selected LTE to start, at the moment I selected it, the connection broke then re-connected and LTE appeared but now it even shows? is that normal? 4G showed at all times so I know the coverage is fine.
Am just worried as this is my first android and my first experience performing the rooting and updates etc, and has been a stress lol

I've searched and didn't find any thread with this kind of issue specifically. I have a Verizon Galaxy S4 that doesn't seem to like GSM SIM cards; it looks like it is not GSM unlocked. I have tried every trick to get it to switch to GSM but it doesn't. I have flashed the same version firmware it came with (ME7) just to be certain it's factory restored, and also updated to MK2, yet no GSM. It sees the SIM card but doesn't show a signal, even when I manually switch to GSM/UMTS. I have programmed a CDMA number on it manually then tried the GSM switch again, yet no GSM signal. It sees CDMA signal fine though and can even make calls on CDMA. I even had to check the MEID/IMEI and it came back clean so I'm just surprised at all this. I have done this before successfully on a Verizon S3 and it worked well, how come the S4 has refused to work on GSM?
Please help, anyone?
Did you input APN's?
I thought APN settings had to do with data. I will do that now. I'm willing to try anything now.
Thanks.
I am having the same issue with a couple s4s from verizon as well. Checked the IMEI/MEID and they come up clean but they will not catch a signal with a gsm SIM card. I have tried several active AT&T and T-mobile SIM cards in the phones with the same results, no service/signal. Very strange as I have never had an issue with verizon S4s working on AT&T or T-mobile. The weird thing is that with a verizon SIM they catch signal and 4G just fine. Toggled GSM/CDMA and put in APNs and still no luck. I'll keep trying to work this out but right now I am stuck.
I had the same problem here
My GT-I9505 Rom Stock 4.4.2 ZTO(Brazil) had the same problem about signal problem.
Everytime i lock my phone (turning off the screen), by the time i light it on (lock screen), immediatelly my phone turns the signal to "No service".
In this time, i need to wait 1-2 minutes to the phone turns okay. Just wait.
I search for a lot of solutions and didn't find anything.
Notice too that the problem appears only network 2-3g. 4G didn't have the problem.
I solved this problem after Lollipop update. The problem simple dissapear!
(Sorry my bad english)
Ting on Atrix 4G
Hello everybody,
I've signed up for Ting, a better alternative to StraightTalk I believed. I tried everything I could think of to make Ting's SIM card work with CyanogenMod 11 on my Atrix, no such luck. I then flashed back to the stock rom, reluctantly, thinking I would be able to make the SIM work before flashing back to Cyanogen. This is also a failure, so it seems like to me that Ting will never work on my Atrix.
I cannot make calls, there is no Mobile Network it states. I don't care about data or messaging, all I need is for the voice to work. I've tried numerous APNs and nothing is working.
Anyone else out there running Ting on their Atrix? I'm not one to quit so after 2 days straight of this I'm ready to throw the phone against a brick wall to force myself to stop working on this lost cause.
Appreciate anyone with any insight to offer. Thanks
TracFone's SIMs also don't work on the Atrix. They are deliberately locked down to work in their own devices ONLY.
Hi, I have an LG V10 that I purchased from TMOBILE. I switched to AT&T, and brought my T-Mobile device with me. Everything works fine, but I cannot get 4G LTE service at all. I have tried 2 APN settings, and that does not help. I live in a large metropolitan area, and I know that 4G is available here with AT&T. Does anybody have any idea why I can only get 4G and not 4G LTE?
Thanks!
This happened to me when flashing a custom Rom, the fix for me was to change the network speed to 3g or 2g then keep changing Ap's until you see you are connected to a network. Once you see that you are connected, change it back to 4gLTE. Let me know if this worked for you.
This is the APN I use and got LTE to work. It's old APN but it works for me.
Name-LTE
APN-phone
proxy, port, username, password-Not set
MMSC-http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS proxy-proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port-8080 (In order for MMS to work with adblock plus, I use 8080 instead of 80 because using port 80 will cause the MMS not to work)
MCC-310
MNC-410
Authentication type-Not set
APN type-default,mms,supl,hipri (hipri is what makes LTE to work. Without using "hipri" I only get 4G, not LTE. No need to use "fota". It is for tablets)
APN protocol-IPv4
If changing to this APN setting and you still don't get LTE, reboot the phone.

Wow, i was thinking i was the only one with this wierd problem, i had a lg g3 tmobile with this issue, when i was on wifi for large periods and the back to data, the 4g lte appears like it was working fine, but it never gave me access to inteternet, then i had to revert to 3g or 2g, and when it connects and works, i revert back to 4g lte and works fine, until i get wifi, and the same all over again, but this only happen to me with lg on tmobile, i had htc, samsung and this problem does not seems to happens with that brands, so i tougth it was the lg g3 itself and i sell it, but now i get a brand new v10 with tmobile and the problem is still the same, and i don´t find anything on the internet about it, until i see this post, do you know why is this happen? im on mexico, and i use my phones whit telcel

when i hit the apn unlock option appears a message that tells me: "apn has been unlocked" or something like that, but the phone stills the same, do i have to do something else besides manually enter apn settings from my operator?
A word of advice I have an unlocked t-mobile lg v10 and I have had the same issue as you and believe me I tried every possible fix and nothing worked until I tried this fix ( put your sim card in another AT&T device in my case my girlfriend has an AT&T iphone 6 and leave it for a minute or 2 once you see the 4G LTE on that device remove it and put it back into your phone and you will have the 4G LTE all the time, of course you need to set up your apn but like I said I spent a whole month and tried everything before I came to that fix because nothing else worked) I hope that would help you.
I totally switched iphone 6 SIM on unlocked LG v10 ,,,but i saw LTE for 5sec and then back to 4G ...
Don't know if it will work ..
Just a network access problem, you should save yourself some time and just.... Call AT&T customer support?
Or hit the AT&T V10 forums for correct APNs. I'm sure you aren't the first person to deal with this issue.
Yes u can have 4G LTE ...just activate with a AT&T 4G LTE IMEI

i have the same senario...recently moved to AT&T with the UNLOCKED Tmobile LG V10 and every thing works just fine with AT&T SIM except no 4G LTE and when you asked At&T they will try to convince you to buy their device to get 4G LTE signal....it took me a while to figure it out that u can get 4G LTE on an unlocked LG V10 if u activate the service with any AT&T 4G LTE capable device IMEI..... One more thing.. u are on your own to provide the LTE capable IMEI to customer service. That means don't except to walk in to AT&T store and borrow the IMEI from their display unit..coz they wont let u do that.....
The T-mobile phones pick up perfectly on ATT, it's most likely an APN related issue.
