My phone is not connecting to 3g anymore. I have tried flashing different radios from flipz. I also tried flashing different roms. Also, when I dial *#*#4636#*#* and change the thing to evdo only it still says 1x. I tried all of the options it has. Can anyone help please.
Does it say you are roaming in "about phone"?
What is your prl version?
What is your signal strength (average dB)?
It says not roaming, the signal strength right now is -88 dbm, the mobile network type is CMDA- 1xRTT,the PRL version is 60670. I got an app called Real Signal and sometimes the CMDA signal is full while the EvDO is always empty
If I download the 2.1 update from htc.com/us/support/hero-sprint/downloads/ will that fix it? And will I be able to root it and flash a custom rom

Yes, the 2.1 RUU from Sprint/HTC can be rooted. It's worth a shot to see if it fixes your error. Many people run this RUU from time to time when errors happen that can't seem to be fixed/solved. It will often fix the errors, and then they can re-root and go back to custom roms.
Alright, I'll give it a shot!
Is there a .zip file instead of an .exe or do I have to update it following their instructions to maxmize my chances of fixing the error?
My phone is Verizon Droid 3 XT862.
It can't use cdma 3g or 1x network.
SMS and voice is normal. WIFI is normal too.
If i use GSM card, same problem appears.
I flashed the rom , changed the file named 'ppp-rils.option'.
But nothing happened.
Please help me.
thanks.

Fully restore your phone using my Fast / Easy unbrick method, just search the general section. (All it does is restore your phone to complete stock.)
You can try other stuff, but this method seems to fix most issues that aren't "easy" to fix.
I will try this method.
But I want to know if there are something can be changed or flashed other than this rom.
I want to fix my phone's network.
It not work on cdma , gsm or wcdma.
I flash xt883 rom, but nothing happened.
Can i flash radio? Change hardware setting.
who can tell me.

You don't need the xt883 ROM in order to use the phone on any foreign gsm. The phone must be unlocked by Verizon, then you need to flash the xt883 radio.img, then edit/replace the build.prop. I would flash back to stock first, since the xt883 is a weird ROM, but you probably don't have to. There are already plenty of threads where the explanations have been given, so look around: search Verizon D3 on T-Mobile, D3 on AT&T/T-Mobile, etc.
You will have to turn off 'automatically select operator' in settings and choose manually the one you're using. T-Mobile users will only get edge and below, while AT&T users will get 3g.

I'm not sure what is wrong with your connection, but mine has problems sometimes where the phone will not recognize any available gsm networks. It's sometimes like this after I reboot my phone, but if changing my settings doesn't work, rebooting again will usually work.
Is your phone unlocked by Verizon? Did you flash the xt883 radio.img since changing your ROM? Did you replace your build.prop file with the tweaked one? I will try to find these resources for you if you still need them, but you should be able to find them by searching if you haven't already. After doing these things, you just have to reboot then go to your settings and tell it to prefer gsm. On T-Mobile, you wont get umts. On AT&T you will get gsm and umts.
In settings, you need to select wifi & network settings -> mobile networks -> network mode -> then choose gsm/umts, back to mobile networks -> under gsm/umts settings, click select network, then choose gsm only for T-Mobile or automatic for AT&T, then click operator select, select network and choose your operator. Select automatically will have a check box next to it and you should deselect it. I didn't have to put in my apn settings, because my sim card provides those automatically.
If these settings tweaks don't work for you then I really have no clue what will fix it because it is likely that something else is wrong. I can't be of much more help without seeing the device. I would suggest to keep playing around in settings and just use your head to see why it's not connecting. If you are getting voice and text service on your carrier, data shouldn't be a problem if your settings are done correctly.
Good luck!

I have been fiddling with RadioComm v11.11.11 (is this the latest version?), and there are some sections that deal with the TX power and other items for the radio. Has anyone successfully tweaked the radios on these devices? I am running a XT862 with a Xt883 radio, on T-Mobile. The reception of this phone is pretty bad, and it takes it a LONG time to find signal again, once you get it into a known good reception area. Any ideas/pointers?
Did you try using CM9 for some reason I get better reception on it.

Does it do this with all roms? It sounds like something may be wrong with your phone. I have had very few issues and I live in a notoriously poor reception area for both AT&T and T-Mobile.
Also, are you running the updated build.prop? I added some signal improvements in the v2 file.
It has done it with .894, .905 and now on .906. I realize these are VZW CDMA ROMs. Not sure if something is hanging around in there. I also have not tried swapping out any of the RIL files. Should I? I've made my own build.prop (attached), renamed build.txt, for the .906 VZW build. It gets GSM and EDGE data on T-Mobile. Would you mind looking it over? If it can be tweaked, I'm all over it!
I have tried flashing CM9, and it just keeps giving me boot loop issues. I will download the latest, and try it tonight.

It should not matter since the radio is independent. Only some custom roms might have issues with GSM. Stock Verizon would be the best place to test reception issues.
Try this build.prop on your existing rom and see if it makes any difference:

Hello,
Did you got it working ?
Many people in Austria have since mid of July problems with the Droid 4 GSM.
I used the Original JB ROM with Mentor, but since mid of July it didnt found any GSM signal anymore.
Now I have installed CM11, GSM and Internet works,
but the GSM works only with 2G and the Internet only with EDGE mode anymore.
Did you found maybe already a solution to get it fully working again ?
We cant find any solution...if you know something, let me know please.
regards
I can try to helping you but you should answer to these questions:
Did you do some change before to not having anymore gsm signal?
What is your stock rom version?
With the original stock rom without any modification what is the situation?
Could you try the original stock rom without my gsm rom but with my latest gsm patch?

I'm in Austria too (provider yesss) and i'm facing the same issue. I already did an full wipe, went back to stock, rooted, installed safestrap again und finally slimkat 7.0 with the gsm patch. Still i just get an edge connection but whenever the droid tries to connect to umts, the signal gets lost totally (no service).

@Mentor.37
i did not any changes - it didnt worked anymore from one minute to the other
i used the Original JB ROM with the Mentor ROM (i cant remember the exactly ROM Version, but it was the official Stock from Verizon/Motorola)
With the original Stock ROM i dont get any connection (no telephony and no internet) - also not any 2G connection...
With the Original Stock ROM and Mentor ROM its the same....no connection (no telephony and no internet).
I flashed CM11 and there i got a connection, but the connection is only 2G (telephony and the internet works only with 2G mode) - no 3G mode.
I also flashed the "Original Motorola Image" back, but there i didnt got also any connection
I used some "Moto XT894 Utility" which i found here in the forum - but always the same - no connection. The "Moto XT894 Utility" contained the Original JB ROM.
@magikstar which Tool you exactly used for flashing back the Original Image ? Can you send me maybe the download links ?
Maybe you have used another tool for flashing back than i.
As Provider i use: A1 (Telekom Austria)
many other people in Austria have the same problem....
@lzmichael
My provider is YESS!!, which belongs to A1 and therefore I'm in the A1 network too. Seems like an A1 issue, because a friend of mine (he has a droid4 too) has Drei, and does not have a problem with 3G.

go to http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=11 and download the latest firmware Android 4.1.2 Blur_Version.98.72.188.XT894.Verizon.en.US
then unzip it and boot your phone into bootloader
flash via fastboot the boot.img,emstorage.img,preinstall.img,radio.img,re covery.img,system.img
and reboot your device and finally mentor's rom wia safestrap
not working
thanks, i did that....but it still works only with 2G mode
with 3G it didnt connect (no network)
what can i do ?
You could try installing the stock 18-9 version, if i'm not in error in it there has been some little update in the radio for gsm users in the canada and that could help every gsm user.

I dont have installed a GSM Patch (i never had that installed before), but i can try.
Today i have installed:
VRZ_XT894_9.8.2O-72_VZW-18-8_CFC.xml.zip
and the MentorRom (Version from March 2014).
With that i have 2G connection. 3G didnt work.
The same problem was with the CM11 - only 2G worked
Where i can get the 18.9 Version from the Stock-ROM?
If you are using my rom you do not have to install the gsm patch but if you are using any other aosp rom you have to install my gsm patch.
Now for testing you can try installing my latest gsm patch, in it i made some change that i have not yet merged in my gsm rom, if no luck you can try updating to 18-9 in this way:
- install the 18-2 version, here the download
- from ota you should update to 18-9
- now you can try the stock rom without any mod and with my patch
if these things will not help we will try in another way.

I have installed now the latest GSM Patch (v3.2.2), but it still doesnt work with 3G mode (no internet connection and no telephony with 3G)
...if i switch to 2G it works
(for example: with a Drei Austria sim card the phone works fine - and with T-Mobile Austria is the same problem as with A1).
I will try to install that 18-2 Update later, when i have a fast WLAN connection to get the OTA update (to 18-9) quickly...

There is something that your provider changed and that that caused this, I hope that we will solve the problem but with our locked bootloader this will be really hard.
Have you tried contacting your providers to knowing what's happening?
Anyway if after updating to 18-9 the problem will be yet present you can attach here your logcats when you are in 3g with no service.

Yes, i have contacted the provider in July and have asked what i can do. i have then asked if they had changed something - like APNs or so, and the provider said, that they didnt changed anything. they replaced then my simcard - they thought maybe is the simcard defect, but the simcard was ok, anyway i have now a new simcard.
but the phone-support from the provider didnt know if something "internal" got changed at the provider...thats what i think.
After flashing the stockrom (with mentor addon), i got a 3G signal for 30-50 seconds, then the signal was away.
the same thing was end of july, after flashing the stockrom (there i had some older version flashed), i got a 3G signal for few seconds - then never again.
no 3G signal after rebooting and so again - it worked only short after installing the new rom.
How its possible to get that "logcats" ? I never did that before. In which directory or so on the phone are the logs ?.
Pretty interesting the output of the log.
I'm writing from my droid so a full log may be diffult now.

I cleared the log before I captured the radio log. At the beginning I had an established 2G (GSM only) connection. Then I switched to "GSM auto(PRL)" - the connection dropped and finally I went back to "GSM only" again. Just fyi what I was doing when the log was captured.

Be careful messing with radio's, that's one thing if you get wrong will kill your phone forever, you must have a 4G enabled phone (M7_UL) have a look for this in the bootloader and also a 4G enabled sim, your network provider will provide you with one if your paying for a 4G service.

I have the m7_UL, I currently have 3 apn settings available. Two are for lte other one is straight talk. I set the phone to lte as the preferred signal. I also received recently a 4g plan with 4g.
I'm going to try my family's sim cards, they run on 4g.
Tried mine on their phones and theirs on mine. All sim cards run on 4g. What could be wrong with my m7?

custom rom could easily be the fault, unstable or corrupt lib or system files etc, go back to stock to be sure.

Lots of people in that thread cant get 4G working, open the thread from your original link and in the search this thread box just type 4G, you'll see all the problems, read a couple of pages myself, its a very buggy rom ATM.
If your looking for a 5.0 rom then you could try DU or AICP. Both last i knew had LTE working in them. CM12 is not gonna be the most stable at the moment.
