When using this function and I chose my preferred network as lte/cdma my phone automatically goes to gsm. Can anyone tell me why it is doing this. I have a tower with lte on my street about 1 mile away and can get lte now and then. That is why I was trying this method to try and stay connected to lte. Thanks.

Have you unlocked your sim and changed your settings at any point? It sounds like your device is defaulting to gsm and causing this headache.

I have not unlocked my SIM. Never done anything that involves the SIM card. That was a good thought though. The phone has told me that I cannot get lte because I have no SIM card before though. I read up on that. It said to clean my SIM card. I never did though. I won't if that is the problem? Thanks

We just got lte where I live. I'm on tranquility rls 2. But I also have the stock rooted rom and the same thing happens. I can't think of any other details that I can give. I'm going to pull the SIM card and clean it right now. I'll be back. Thanks

If you have a original stock backup maybe you should restore to it and see what you get......just a thought. Sorry I'm not more help.

No, I got a replacement and it wouldn't get 4G at all, just 3G. Figured I'd try to toggle it like you did, same result. Turned out the UICC ID wasn't matching up with Sprint's records. They reprogrammed it or whatever they had to do and all is good now!

Curious if anyone knows the status of the Force Roam option.
I've really enjoyed having that option on my HTC EVO LTE.
Thanks
I've heard a rumor that Roam Control works on it. Haven't had a chance to test it out, I'll see if it works at all sometime later today. I too would enjoy having the ability to force roam (I live in the vicinity of a rural area so at times it's needed) - is great on my EVO LTE running MeanBean.
I've ported the mod but it's not working it worked on the sense 5 port for the ELTE

Ah I got it. Thanks I've never dabbled in force roaming before outta fear of Sprint axing my contract for "excessive roaming" and that causing my wife to kick my a** lol but I'm checking into it to see the difference in speeds and just use it in a "as needed" situation. I've come to the understanding that with the right mods you can do the ##778# and edit the prl from there but I'm not entirely sure yet what all that entails. I was just checking around in there and when I selected edit mode under the prl option it asked me for a password and I'm not sure what password it wants. Lol still digging but I'm at work now(in a warehouse so reception is god awful) so after work I may looking into it more. Thanks again any further knowledge anyone shares is much appreciated.

Okay, the RoamControl app does not work on an un-rooted phone. Confirmed using version 2.7 and selecting htc unrooted in options. The developer does not return emails, so those that are looking to roam on a stock device will have to wait for the app to be updated.
It's cool tho, I will be rooted as soon as I'm convinced this phones hardware is worthy of the pounding I'm gonna put on it over the next year! hehe

Hey I have a sprint HTC One and im wondering if i trim my sim card and put it on a Sprint iPhone 5 would it work ? If it does can someone tell me.. I just want to swap phones whenever i want too
You have to call sprint in order to swap phones. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the SIM card is only for international uses. Not Sprint to Sprint

I don't think it works like that on sprint see the sim card is just to get on lte. I remember when I got my replacement HTC one the sim card stayed the same but in the system sprint said it didn't match the one they had on record so my phone wasn't connecting to LTE. After a quick call and putting the right numbers in I got LTE. So you would still need the phone to be active which involves calling sprint to do the swap

Yes. The phone uses the sim card to connect to LTE. That's the only reason it is there. Your phone number isn't attached to it like GSM. So swapping the sim card won't do anything.

Just tell sprint via chat that you aren't getting service. Tell them your imei ID and ask them to reactivate your phone via a service update.

i think you can get an app called apn shortcut from the market, it will let you access the apn settings, at least it used to on sense roms.

I wouldn't give up so easy, I'd take it up to tmobile and complain about their service. Don't mention where or how you got the phone just tell them that you won't continue to pay for what you're not receiving. I have a feeling they may just exchange it for you to keep you as a customer.
