The other day I was getting H everywhere I went on Cyanogenmod 7.1 but suddenly I would barely get Edge, and as soon as I tried to use it, it died, no service. I tried flashing a few different radios with no success, even tried flashing Cyanogenmod 7.2 rc3 with no success... Is this the end of the line for my beloved n1 or is there any fixes anyone knows of.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Have you tried to check your APN settings? Did you have this problem before flashed a new ROM?
I did have problems before flashing, in fact I only flashed things to try to fix the signal issue. Data is enabled, international data is disabled, National data roaming is enabled, network preferences is GSM/WCDMA (WCDMA preferred), AP names is T-Mobile US epc.tmobile.com, use only 2g is disabled, network operators is select automatically
I didn't change any settings in here from before is stopped working, at least not that I'm aware of.
Current setup:
Baseband version = 32.41.00.32u_5.08.00.04
Mod version = CyanogenMod-7.2.0-RC3-passion
Is there somewhere else I should look?

Ohh well guess it's time to move on, I just purchased a galaxy nexus, guess this is just a wifi phone now... Although I would love to fix it for a backup if someone has any ideas.

Hi,
i have a verizon droid 3, i live in Argentina and im trying to get the 3g running...
I applied the radio flash described here. 3g is still not working, but now Swype is also not working.
When I try to use it it says something about the license and it doesnt work.
I first tried it with the build.prop with the model=xt883, then changed it to droid3 but still no luck.
Anyone knows how to fix, at least my scrybe issues? And if anyone else can help me with the 3g would be awesome
Thanks!
What exactly is it not doing. And swype is probably another issue entirely.

Huh? You changed the model in build.prop to Droid 3? Pretty sure its supposed to be xt883 in the first place, your supposed to use the build.prop in the thread
And I thought the droid 3 was a global phone anyway, even the verizon version
Swype doesnt work at all, its activated but not working.
I changed the model in the build.prop just to see if this was the problem, but apparently something in the radio.img has broken my swype. Is that possible?
Btw, droid3 isnt global. Here in latin america is known as milestone 3, and apparently verizon's droid 3 is a pain in the ass if you want to use 3g here...

If you are using this device is South America then why are you trying to band unlock it? The band unlock was designed for use with AT&T & T-Mobile inside the US. If you are using outside of the US you do not need to perform this procedure.
You probably should flash your device back to stock, make sure you sim unlock it and setup your APN settings.
After flashing back to stock reboot in recovery(hold x then press and hold power, then volume up & down once you see the android!) and perform a factory data reset. Hopefully this will solve your swype issue as well.

what he said
the GSM BANDLOCK is only to prevent the phone to connect to USA networks but in southamerica as long as you have the 850 band it should work! (ATT, TELCEL MX, Others)
you should flash the stock mentioned by devicesnow
(link in my signature if you have/had version xt862 v 5.6.890 or before if you had version 5.7.90X then there are other SBFs that would help)
once in stock change to GSM mode and add APNs if you are on an 850 network it should give 3g and in an 800 (like t-mobile in USA) network should give you edge
also check you are SIM-unlocked (different from band unlocked) so you can detect sims different to verizon.
What a coincidence, I bought my Droid to DevicesNow in eBay haha
When I first received it, it never worked in 3G... I have the APN set up and everything, but still not working...
I'm now using a non-Verizon sim for calls and sms, so the phone is sim-unlocked right?
I'll try applying the sbf, but since it never worked frm the first minute.. I don't think it wil now.
Thanks for your help.

Hello axel.isr,
The Motorola Droid 3 works on 3G Networks HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100. Claro, Personal & Movistar all support 850/1900.
Yes the device is sim unlocked if you are using already for voice and sms. If it wasn't sim unlocked you would be promoted to enter a sim pin code upon powering up the device with your non network sim card installed.
Which device were you using prior to the D3? Do you have a data plan associated with your sim card? Which carrier exactly are you using and what APN settings have you entered into the device?
You can download an app that automatically enters your carriers APN settings for you called tweakker here.
So.. I went back to stock with the sbf, wiped data and everything but still no 3G.
I tried using my sim card in a ZTE N720 and I get 3g connection.
I've tried a lot of apn settings but none of them worked, I also tried Tweake with standard and alternative settigns but still no luck...
Should I have to change the radio, baseband or something? I already have the radio set up to work on GSM auto (prl).

Maybe you could try the 883 radio and build.prop?

What APN are you using?
Try turning off airplane mode then turning it on again
SuperbigextremeFacepalm for me!
I called my carrier to get the apn setting again, changed it and now I at least get Edge connection
If I want to get 3G instead of Edge is there something I can change in my D3 settings or it has something to do with the 3g coverage in my area?
Btw, thanks a lot to everyone for helping me out. Specially to DevicesNow for my awesome D3, I totally love it <3

Glad to see your up and running.
3G will work when in coverage areas and there isn't anything that would need to be done to enable this.
I am using the Unofficial ParanoidAndroid 3.00 and had previously tried Touchwiz UX Nature Jelly bean ROMs. In both I was unable to change to change the preferred network from GSM/WCDMA to LTE/GSM/WCDMA in both settings and using *#*#INFO#*#* and have it stick.
I on Virgin Mobile in Australia though. I've had 4G activated on my network account, have the correct APNs, and can confirm that I get a 4G signal when using the Borked ROM 3.7. That ROM works perfectly for me, but it isn't Jellybean and so there are too many features missing, and it looks ugly.
I've also checked the build.prop file and find all the settings are correct.
Code:
ro.config.lte=1
telephony.lteOnGsmDevice=1
ro.telephony.default_network=9
ro.ril.def.preferred.network=9
I have noticed in *#*#INFO#*#* when I set it to LTE Only and the reception goes to zero the Current Network says Telstra Mobile instead of Optus Mobile as it should for 4G Virgin Mobile Customers.
Could be something to do with the APN not being recognised as LTE capable somewhere?
Could it be something to do with the radio? The ROM that worked used a .19L, whereas the PA ROMs use .22L.
I have tried reflashing the ROM (wipe cache/dalvik, flash). I have tried using 4G from a clean flash.
I have run out of ideas @[email protected] And now starting to wish I saved that money for the One X or stayed with my super reliable Incredible S which even has a super fantasmagorical and stable JB 4.2.2! @_____@*
Fixed. The sim card must be 4G LTE compatible. My sim card was from before 4G was released. New sim card -> 4G LTE reception.
I looked back in the forum a couple weeks for similar threads but couldn't find one that was just like this issue.
On the stock ROM that came with the phone and with the d3rpOne ROM (Android 4.1.2, HTC Sense 5) I can get LTE working fine. I don't think it even really requires any airplane/network mode toggling.
This morning I tried Beanstalk (Android 4.3, CM 10.2) and two different releases of another CM ROM (Android 4.3, CM 10.2 and Android 4.2.2, CM 10.1).
The general instructions with those ROMs were just to toggle the network mode between LTE/CDMA and CDMA only, or to toggle airplane mode. Neither worked.
So how can I fix this? I don't really like Sense-based ROMs, but I definitely don't want to be without a good data signal.
Having the same problem. With the stock ROM, I get 4G. On CM 10.1.3, I can get 3G after toggling the network mode, but I can't get 4G.
LTE works for me using beanstalk with out doing anything special
Yeah, I got the impression that was the norm with most people. I might not have read the full thread, but I did read the first and last few pages and it seemed like everyone got 4G working at some point.
Glad I'm not the only one with this issue, though!
Bump for a new week.

Credit goes to David in the dev forum for the fix.
The APN will change back occasionally so you need to just select lte internet again.
With lte internet selected 3g and lte will work.

That sounds like a good solution, but it's still not doing it for me.
I went to APNs and selected "Sprint LTE Internet". That alone didn't do it. I toggled airplane mode, toggled my network mode, still nothing. I tried both Global and CDMA+LTE/EvDo. I gave it a few minutes for each one and still nothing. Rebooting didn't do it either.
Is there something I'm missing? How do my screenshots look? I read that someone wasn't getting an LTE indicator when they followed these steps, so just to confirm I tried to use my browser. I couldn't connect, so it's not just a matter of the signal icon being inaccurate.
I'm still seeing the same symptoms as Roboslim. Tried the same things, got the same results.
I finally got around to flashing a new radio. Could that make a difference?

When you flash the radio are you adjusting the frequency or band? Sprint uses LTE 1900 are you/can you change that? Trying to find ways to benefit an unlocked phone and take it to another carrier as Sprint sux so bad and has no 4g in my area?

I'm not very experienced beyond flashing self-contained ROMs, so I just got a ZIP someone posted in the Sprint HTC One boards and flashed that without any modifications. It didn't break anything when I went back to a Sense-based ROM, so I'm assuming it's alright.
As for unlocking and leaving Sprint... I'm actually with Credo, who uses Sprint towers. I like them, plus I just started my contract, so I personally won't be leaving anytime soon.
One last bump, I guess.
I suppose if it comes down to it, I can deal with Sense. The system settings really are way too simplistic, but with Widget Locker and a custom launcher it's something I can live with.
Alright one MORE bump. I'm getting the CM itch again. I just gave the MoKee opensource ROM a try and am having the same issue as ever.
Are there any other possibilities out there?
Flash the latest nightly. It should work fine. Worst case do a reboot after a fresh flash when the new ROM is fully booted.
Also try installing the most current firmware.
Make sure you are set for CDMA+LTE/EVDO and also try "home only" with a stock PRL before straying from default.

I have been flashing the latest releases for multiple ROMs and have had the same issue with all of them. I've tried reboots each time too.
Now, I might need some education on the rest of that post. Where can I get the latest firmware? Would that be an official Sprint/HTC thing?
I've messed with a lot of different combinations of settings after flashing these ROMs. I've done CDMA+LTE/EVDO and I'm pretty sure I've done "home only" (would the other option be "automatic"?). As for the PRL, would updating it from the system settings give me a stock PRL?

There is a firmware thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2406330
Download the latest version and flash in CWM or TWRP.
The radios are the firmware images.
Changing the PRL can only be done in stock ROM, or by using QPST. The stock rom is by far the easiest if you have your MSL. Sprint should give you your MSL once you give tech support a call. If they don't then call back and get another tech. (I have never had a problem).
I would recommend using the latest stock PRL. I have noticed that if I try to roam on 3g there is a problem getting data (verizon towers IIRC). I believe that is because it is using EVDO vice eHRPD for 3g. What the difference is?? Well I don't know?
I do know that evdo and 1x still have ongoing issues. So I usually stick with home only to ensure that I stick with Sprint towers. I believe that this is the issue with me connecting to 3g data to my airave as well.
Could you post a screen shot of your APN settings?

I'll have to re-flash a CM ROM before posting a screenshot, but from what I recall my APN settings looked like your image. I had "Sprint LTE Internet" selected. I'll flash the latest firmware from that thread while I'm at it.
As for the MSL, I'm not getting my service directly through Sprint. Would I get the MSL from my carrier, then, or would I have to get in touch with Sprint somehow? Do you know how that works? Either way, that'll probably take a little more time and waiting around than just flashing some stuff.
Once I get that MSL, what are the steps to set my PRL?
Who is your carrier? Did you buy the Sprint version off contract?

I have been running this ROM w pretty much without issue for a while now. One that is currently happening though is the weird thing with the "preferred network" selection under the mobile network settings (settings->mobile network): I can only select 2g and 3g. Thanks to rignfool, I can get LTE back as the preferred network type using *#*#4636#*#* and changing the network type under phone info, but I was wondering if there was a way to get both 4g and LTE (or just one) into the list so that there wouldn't be a need to go to the "testing" section.
And I just restarted my phone, and the preferred network switched back to 3g. I am a little sad the fix did not stick. Is there a way to write a script that changes the preferred network type via phone information, and then have it run at boot?

What do you mean quick setting toggle? Do you mean the toggle under settings->mobile network->preferred network? That's what loses the ability to select LTE.
Going through #*#*4636*#*# temporarily lets the phone connect to LTE (and becomes the preferred network, but it's randomly turning back to 3G (still cannot select it through normal settings) without restarting now. I'm going to flash the kernel that matches the ROM just to be safe, and report any findings.
So I just noticed RC-3 was released today, so I will guve that a shot afterwards!
EDIT:
Flashed the correct kernel and no dice. In fact, after using the TEST menu, my phone disconnected from the network and the preferred network switched to say "change the preferred network" after it reconnected. In the TEST menu (phone information), the preferred network is "unknown". I'm gonna go and test out RC-3 and get more current with the times.
Die Letzten Edit:
Using RC-3, it seems that my phone is staying on LTE/GSM (prl) for preferred network. However, one other thought: I have the phone switch to 2G when the screen locks, that may be why it keeps switching on me.
