LG G2 VS980 not detecting/connecting to mobile network.. - Verizon LG G2

isnt the VS980 supposed to be unlocked for GSM use ?
I am in India at the moment...i have 3 Verizon G2 phones...SIM cards work fine on 2 of them...On the third one...it does not detect the mobile network...sim is detected ,coz it gives no alert...and when i search for networks...the networks are shown...it just doesnt connect to the network...the sim cards work fine in other phones...in the other G2 phones and in a HTC DROID DNA...so its not the sim at fault....
Have tried multiple SIM cards from Vodafone/Loop Mobile/Airtel...none of them work on this particular phone..
When i search for networks...im getting networks...but cant connect to them...most times it shows error while searching for network...
What can be the problem ?
Please help me out...otherwise will have to send the phone all the way back to USA...

if i am right... verizon phone is unlocked to all US carriers only....try to verify if its globally unlocked
EDGE/GSM (850/900/1800/1900), HSPA/UMTS (850/900/1900/2100)*
those are the frequence bands it support.
India support 900 1800
So technically it should work..
try *#06# to check if it shows imei number and other is to try to unlock phone

I got 3 Verizon g2... 2 of them work fine with Indian sim cards.
The third one is facing this problem.. I thought the IMEI was lost.. But IMEI is still intact and dame as that on the box.. Also Verizon g2 has no unlocking system as it is already unlocked..
That ink which u posted says it is unlocked for us carriers.. And not that it cannot be used outside the US.. People use it in UK, Australia.. Mexico.. Germany.. To name a few..
It seems the efs partition is corrupt but I don't know how to fix that as I have no backup..
Also if it wasent unlocked the sim won't be detected.
When I search for networks, the networks show.. It just doesn't connect..
The problem exists only in one of the 3 phones..

Ok then install custom rom and try with that.
I can recommend you for cloudy g3 rom. Best one out there
If your phone is not rooted and no custom recovery then open towelroot.com from your phone and install apk and it will root right a way
Then install rashr flash tool from play Market and install twrp recovery.
It's the easiest methods to install custom recovery and root I can recommend.
I hope this will work for you and don't forget to setup apn setting if data plan not working

I have a very similar problem. Using a SIM with 850 mhz HDSPA provider LG G2 works.
But when I use a SIM at 900 mhz, I got only voice. No 2G even.
Ideas?

Fixed for me. I rooted the phone. I installed the cloudy rom, based in the D802 version of LG G2, now, the phone works perfect. No issues at all.
I suggest change the rom and try other software.

does the phone have a big verizon logo in the back or in the screen? Then yes, it's a VS980. Pick that option in the aroma installer.

VS980 not picking LTE Frequency
I am from Pakistan and I have the same issue. Did anyone find any solution?

Ihave thisproblem too

I am using Verizon G2 32gb.. and yes... signal reception is so so soo poor.. at same locaiton, others handsets with same network are receiving very good signals while its on no network :/

Not picking any frequency or signal at all
Upgraded my VS980 to lolipop and after a couple of days same thing happened to me. I am in Pakistan btw. Sim is working fine on any other mobile. Have tried restoring to stock nothing happened. One thing i want to add is when i change my location sometimes for a couple of minutes, network do appear. But it does not makes call or uses data then it again gets to emergency calls only status... Phone is no better then i web browser now.... Help needed

Also not connecting (But it detects networks)
I have an lg vs980 and I was using it with H2O wireless and later I changed to Simple Mobile. I'm living in Puerto Rico. The phone was working all right and, suddenly, one day it was always displaying 'emergency calls only'.
I did factory reset, then I reflashed stock lollipop and it was like nothing happened, keeps displaying 'emergency calls only'.
Then I found this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2394689 and applied the patch but didn't seem to resolve the problem.
As a last resort I tried flashing cm 12.1 and before first boot applied the patch from the cited thread but no result, keeps displaying 'emergency calls only'.
Has anyone found a solution to this problem?

Sprint GSM Rom for Unlocked Sprin Htc One

I recently unlocked my sprint htc one and im trying to use it on tmobile, everything works, i even get 3g data but the big problem is that the network settings doesnt automatically choose the tmobile network and it disconnects way, way to often, when it disconnects i have to manually search for the network every time as it wont select it automatically. I think that whats needed is a Sprint gsm rom for it to work as it should or maybe a flashable patch. if anybody has the knowledge, i would appreciate it. big thanks!!!

The print htc one is a world phone, just like they make roms for the rezound from verizon, which is a world phone as well or the droid 3 global, they make botch cdma roms and gsm roms. So now we need a gsm compatible rom.

Don't flash any Rom unless it's sprint compatible. Intl/other carrier roms have different mount points and will make your phone reboot/drop service with only fix being RUUing

Absolutely not. That's your one-way ticket to RUU-hell land. It's not just differences in the kernel, but also in how the internal storage is partitioned. I'm pretty surprised that even with GSM/UMTS you're having trouble. Anyone know if the stock PRL for the Sprint ROM might be interfering (i.e. the phone is trying to search for one of Verizon's CDMA towers first)?
If anyone wants, just send me the updater-script from a GSM ROM, and I will change the mount points to be for Sprint. Like that you can flash the GSM rom. However, I would like to know if there is anyone brave enough (with S-Off) to flash the firmware bits of the GSM phones (radio, adsp, rpm, and maybe the sbl*; not the bootloader and recovery).
The radio.img is the most dangerous thing... But I think getting the GSM f/w on the GSM-unlocked Sprint phone will be a good thing. Unless, anyone knows that the radios are different? I know the mount points are different, but does anyone have any info on the firmware itself?
Anyway, just let me know if you wanna try to flash a GSM rom, I will update the mount points for you.

I was playing around with qpst and on service programming on the umts tab system there is an option "preceded network selection" and is set to limited, I try changing it but it won't let me write to phone, I think that's what sprint did to limit connection of gsm in USA
ill try it

SimLock Solution For All 4.3 users

Hello to you all
I would like to show all of you 4.3 users the solution "elvisypi" gave me in my private mail and finally i succeed to unlock my device.
So all of us know that sprint or google changed the way HtcOMADM works and we can't use the original system for unlocking our device.
So here is the solution that "elvisypi" gave me :
1. Download the "Stock with goodies 4.3 ROM". Don't flash it wet. (link : http://www.mediafire.com/?9y21d2wlszh6d6c )
2, With an archive viewer like winzip open the ROM.zip and go to /system/app
3. replace 2 apps which I have attached: HtcOMADM_SettingsPlugin_SPCS.apk and HtcOMADM_SPCS.apk. Just drag and drop and replace.
4. Finally flash the ROM.
5. Install the HTCOneSIMUnlockHelper and follow the onscreen instructions.
This system works 100% and this way you can be on 4.3 rom and still have an unlock GSM sprint device.
again , many thanks to "elvisypi" for his great support
sim unlock
Hope it does
downloading....

I've followed your directions, using the ROM you provided (only difference being flashing the root-fix) and I get vDM errors every time I boot and the app says it's unlocked but my Tmobile SIM gets no signal. Is there any other way i can check if my phone's unlocked?

Yes I have, it says preparing SIM card but I never get any bars. I read in another thread that I need to be on an older radio in order for Tmobile to work. And for that I'll need s-off which I can't. Sigh.

i was getting annoyed that i couldnt find the files before i found this thread
HTC ONE
I did everthing s-off....flashed to the old radio baseband....tried everything still havent got any signal....who know what a problem?
The only thing is that I've flashed my sprint htc one to the Straight talk. Could it cause a problem?
I am also trying to unlock for T-Mobile. Running into the same issues as others. I was reading a thread where someone was apparently using it on T-Mobile, and PMed them on how exactly they did it but never got a response.
Would love to hear if anyone has it working on T-Mobile
This works. :victory:
Only need to extract, modify and zip again.
Flash with TWRP.
And everything is working normally, no need to reinstall or root, or whatever.
The only problem is that every time I turn on the phone, I get the error message VDM, but it disappears instantly, without stopping or forcing any application.
I live outside the U.S., and continues to operate all perfect with SIMUnlockerHelper. :fingers-crossed:
My device: Sprint Htc one = Unlockboot, TWRP, SIMUnlocker Helper, Root, and the rom on the top of the post. (benny's 4.3 LOL)
it actually works, but if you're using a sense rom I think you only need to download the apps in the op and replacing in system/app
I did this with insertcoin 6.0-4, the unlock helper app didn't recognize the rom, but with the terminal emulator method it worked just fine, tried with a sim and all fine ... then put again the original apks and you don't have to deal with any error popups
Interesting. I was under the impression that our version of this device did not support domestic (only international) GSM bands, hardware wise.
Is this version of sim unlocking different than what you would get if you asked Sprint? (they do allow you to unlock it if you meet certain criteria, like good account standing)

it supports the bands, but all the radios except the original one block domestic gsm carriers. if you still unlock and use that radio, it'll work.
Not working
I tried everything mentioned above, ( Unlock bootloader, S-OFF, Root) also changed the 2 apps in the system for the 4.3 ROM Stock rooted deodexed and then used the SIM unlock helper.
Then Got the same result : No GSM signal, and the SPRINT logo still on the top when I make a call, the same answer comes: " Error number 16 script 3."
I'm using Straight Talk Sim by ATT.

i9305 no mobile signal..what else can i try ?

I Have had this i9305 now without mobile signal, with a vodaphone it did used to show signal but in all cases it always says 'no mobile networks' or 'not registered on network' i have tried with every sim i can think of... it was suggested to flash a stock rom which i did..this made no difference, i then tried installing CM11 and followed the guide to the letter.
I know this phone is not blacklisted as i checked with the imei, i have tried flashing different modems but to be honest im not sure what i am flashing to it..i have tried three different ones now starting with XX as i am in uk...i really dont know if i have missed something or doing something drastically wrong..i have read and read and usualy i would have had this resolved by now...can anyone please help me as i want to give this handset to my girlfriend for a present very soon so we can keep in touch..i am at my wits end with it:crying:
Thanks
Try an emergency restore through Samsung Kies - this should eliminate any software related problem. Sounds to be a hardware problem though so get Triangleaway going and send it for repair if that doesn't work.
Flash 4.1.2, then enable and disable the LTE-only mode hack in the hidden service menu (the *#2263# one, not *#*#4636#*#*). (If you have root, you can also access that menu in 4.3 or even the 4.4.2 port, but it's a bit more involved.)

it won't let me do that as it doesn't list the phone as needing an emergency recovery. I flashed a stock rom and the signal is showing but it keeps saying not registered on network.. if I do a search it finds providers but when I opt for the provider of the sim it just perpetually spins at registering on network.

Have just followed a guide to root this unit, upon installing root checker it says this device does not have proper root, Odin reports that everything went ok and i get the red pirate android..when the phone boots a pop up comes up saying unfortunatley SU has stopped working... not sure whether KNOX is stopping this ?

Problem phone only working in gsm only??

Hello developers.
I am amz. In dire need of your help.
Ok so i have a new mini
I turned it on n it would jus turn off if I used apps. I got a new battery. That stopped.
I then try use Internet it works only on G and E but if I go to 3g or Lte. .H will never come on. Can't call it says not registered on network only on the higher bands not gsm.. It's a 4G sim it works perfectly in my old s5 mini and signal is excellent here. I got new Internet settings too. G n E works why the he'll doesny the other bands register on network? Imei shows its not blocked either. I'm in the UK on EE. I cannot understand. I have all the OTA updates. Can u tell me if I can fix it by doing something thro service menus or anything also all sims do the same in this phone. I don't have a pc to change the rom. Could I do it through a external SD card.
Please I beg of you help.
Run the system updates, I had network issues until it was fully updated.
They are only patches, no new rom.
Reboot once each batch has completed until there are no more.
If that does not work, potentially you have a row version which uses a different band than us in the uk. Send it back.
I have the June 2015 update. I ran all updates. Still not working? I wanna install the cm12 rom m see if that'll fix it but kingroot not working. How do I see what band my phone is tryna connect in wcdma mode n what is required by the network? 4g don't work either?
I just Checked. My networked EE uses wcdma on 2100mhz. My phone is trying to connect. But it just says emerge calls only. Wth. What's wrong with it??
Can you post a screen of the About phone?
Should look identical to mine
Also, have you tried googling ee 4g settings s5 mini?
My network required me to get a 4g sim upgrade, before that it needed settings for hspda 3g which worked
I have a similar problem. Phone worked fine for couple of months, but since tuesday, it only works when I force it to GSM only.

(the thumbnail above equals to mine)
Maybe the network providers have changed 3g/4g details.
Check the website for correct details and update them in phone, if that doesn't work try a friends sim, if that doesn't work return phone
I had the problem aswell. I searched for the newest firmware in the internet (in my case I used the russian one). Then I extracted the modem file and made a tar file of it to flash it through odin. After I've done it everything worked fine.
If you want me to, I can do this tomorrow or saturday for u.
I flashed the original firmware (July 10, Nee), that did not help. What is the date of your firmware that works now?
I thinky june 2015.. I had the problem in February last year
It's me amz
Ok so basically I found out I need to flash my modem file or change the rom. But I have no PC to flash
.so I need a app which can root my phone or something without a computer. Kingroot didn't work. Anyone got any ideas on how I can do this? I've Google relentlessly. I need a developers help lol
I'll even pay them

I returned my phone and they changed the "circuit board". So mine was a hardware problem.
I've rooted my phone and going to change my rom however the tar.md5 file I can't use as I can.tell use odin. I need the .img file to have the twrp bootloader. anyone know where I can download this?

How should I downgrade or enable GSM/WCDMA option on Sprint LG G4 LS991?

Hey, guys this is my first post here on XDA so please apologize me for any inconvenience.
I bought LG G4 Sprint i.e., LS991 yesterday from someone else I don't have contact with him now. The sim card which works on 3G was working fine when I bought it. But, then I tried to go in settings and then to mobile network and I opened the list of network bands and unfortunately I was only able to find only two option that are 1. CDMA/LTE and 2. CDMA.
I was forced to select one from it and boom no signals at all and status says searching for service. Where is the GSM option? I'm sure that this phone is already unlocked and it is from Sprint.
Also, I'm on the latest software version that is LS991ZVD. Can I go back to ZV6 International ROM or will it brick my device?!

Bro, I found this on this site:
1. go to settings and add new APN manually (fill the values according to your carrier).
2. in the APN type input "default,dun,fota".
3 .save.
4. Restart phone and you are good to go.
Works like a charm... The signal loss thing happened to me too. Don't select either option after you fix it. Go to backup and reset and reset your network settings. I think this is what I did to solve the problem.
