Any idea on getting the Nexus 6 in diagnostic mode to connect to QXDM / QPST? Also trying to locate the diagnostic drivers for this device.
# Setting usb.sys.config prop doesn't seem to do much
su -c 'setprop usb.sys.config diag,adb'

I'd also like to know this.
Does anyone know how to enable diag mode on the Nexus 6?
as far as i know, no nexus ever had a QXDM/QPST mode.

On the Nexus 5 it was possible to enable Diag mode by flashing a custom kernel:

I was wondering whether a similar thing could be done on the Nexus 6 as well

it wasnt a diagnostic mode on the n5, it was a menu for sprint. and it proved to be no use for any other provider. and if you had root, you could always look into /system/app/ and see its apk.

it was a way for sprint users to get more info about their network coverage.
I was actually trying to find out whether it was possible to unlock/enable additional LTE bands on the Nexus 6.
For example some of the US bands on the XT1100 (eg. 2, 4, 17) and some additional European bands on the XT1103 (e.g 20).

I used that menu and actually got the n5 to work on att. Had data, no voice or SMS. The cellular network in the settings menu did not give me an option that worked.

Straight out of the box perhaps. I had already taken sprint and t mobile for test drives before trying att. I was comparing and wanting to get away from big red until I saw my choices. Thankfully the n6 works on vzw.

It looks like they are actually using a special LG driver for Diag mode instead of the standard Google USB driver.
We'd need some sort of Motorola Diag driver that works with the Nexus 6.

Thanks for trying.
Just to get a clearer picture, what exactly didn't work for you?
Which model did you try this on? XT1100 or XT1103?
Where you able to put the Nexus 6 in diagnostic mode and connect it to QXDM?
Did the new NV values at lines 6828 and 6829 stick after a reboot?
If the answer to the previous 2 questions was yes, did you pop in a local LTE-enabled sim card? (for "local" I mean a sim card from the region where you want to enable the additional LTE bands, and not a foreign sim card - if you are overseas at the moment - as some network providers have not enabled LTE roaming yet).
Furthermore, did you also try the very same sim card with another (local and LTE capable) phone to see whether it actually gets any LTE connection?
Sorry about all the questions. I just want to get as much info as possible.

Follow these steps to get it into diag mode.
1. Power off the phone
2. Press and keep pressed both volume up and down and at simultaneously press the power button. This will take you to the bootloader menu.
3. Use the volume buttons to navigate to the "BP Tools" option and press the power button once. This will reboot the phone in diagnostic mode.
4. Connect the phone to a Windows PC with a USB cable. Windows will try and fail to install the drivers. Go to Windows device manager to see the failed drivers. Follow the other steps from link I posted earlier to proceed and update the correct Motorola drivers

Hi Everyone,
I'm not sure how to try this out, since I'm not in the US, and that RadioComm doesn't work for my Droid 4 (it's been upgraded to ICS)
1) Install latest Motorola drivers and RadioComm
2) Launch RadioComm
3) When it RadioComm launches, Click Main -> MA -> Common -> MDM 6x00
4) Click Settings -> USB -> PST USB
5) Click on FTM Common 1
6) Connect the phone to the PC and wait for it to go green
7) Under NVAccess, find the following values:
4870, NV_GSM_850_CARRIER_SUPPRESSION_I
4871, NV_GSM_DCS_CARRIER_SUPPRESSION_I
4872, NV_GSM_1900_CARRIER_SUPPRESSION_I
8) For each value, press Read, then replace all of the numbers with 0. Once done, press write. Repeat for all 3 values/
Let me know if this works!
Again, I mentioned a problem with RadioComm. I'm using Windows 8 x64, RadioComm worked fine with my Bionic on GB, maybe it's an ICS thing, maybe I need newer drivers, etc... Please let me know if this works!
I was able to get this going on my Droid Bionic (which also had a corrupted IMEI number) so if you want to see that post, view it here :

This looks awesome -- I saw your post in the Bionic forum. I was curious if this worked for anyone in the states on T-Mobile? I was looking to get a Droid 4 and use it on Straight Talk. Currently have an Epic, but loved my OG Droid. 3G is fine enough for me -- just curious if anyone is also able to get MMS working as well, along with APN settings?
What version of RadioComm do you recommend? I've tried 11.9.0 and I get the error when I try to open it:
"Error in getting the pointer to CommP2K and/or CommQC. Error number: Exception of type 'System.Exception' was thrown."
If you can help me get past this error, I'd love to try this out...

Awesome, I'll give it a shot when I get home. Out of curiosity -- I'm assuming this is similar to QPST. If I bork the modem, I should be able to go back to a prior group of settings, right?
SIM Card should be coming in on Saturday or Monday -- so should be able to get some news to everyone by then.

Still trying to figure it out... I don't think we have a solution just yet.
I'm a developer outside of all of this (C# primarily these days, but have an extensive background in C/C++) -- and I've flashed phones to cricket with QPST -- so maybe I can help you guys out with this. If you're up for discussing any background that might catch me up to speed on this (already have my phone), would be up for trying to help break into it and enable this. Just send me a PM if you're up for this. Thank you!
Hey all,
I've only used this program for a little bit but I was able to change the values to what the OP suggested however, I used the Motorola Factory USB cable. I couldn't get the program to recognize my phone w/o it.
I'm using stock rooted ICS too.
Sent from my DROID4 using Tapatalk 2
So, you updated it with that -- were you successful and does GSM now work in the US?
Did anything change?
Phone doesn't make calls now
I followed the steps above
Radio Comm v11.12.2
Motorola drivers 2.2.28
Whatever data card drivers came with radiocomm
This did not allow me to see t-mobile or at&t here in the states.
So, random question/thought... If we find another modem with similar chip in another phone -- say on AT&T -- would we be able to read some of these fields and stuff out -- and then push it into our modem?
it would be great if we can set the phone to just swap SIM cards very easily, especially in the US

Hmm, might be an idea. I don't think that there were many AT&T phones with this capability though. My idea is to compare an XT910 vs an XT912, since that was a worldwide release.
Best idea, get an XT910, put your SIM into it, grab a full radio dump, then put your SIM into the XT912 that doesn't work and grab another full radio dump and compare the two.
You'd need an internation XT910, since AT&T didn't ship them down there, but that would be a great starting place...

Only thing is that I'd have to go out of my way to do that and spend even more money. I just dropped some on the Droid 4 for an off-contract phone. I wonder if there's any way we could ping some of the other forums, i.e. the Razr and see if anyone can potentially get us full-reads, so that way we could compare/diff them?
In addition -- I wonder if it's possible (probably a long-shot) to potentially order a SIM card or something from another carrier in Europe or somewhere outside the US and get it into the phone, but then have it "added" or "roaming" on a US network or something -- if that might provide a workaround?
Just trying to take stabs at it. I figure I'll hold onto the D4 for another month and see if we have any exciting developments -- and if not -- just push it to Swappa.
So i could use this to unlock the radio for overseas teleco use?

Not sure what you a proposing in your second paragraph. I have a UK SIM card, and when I plug it in two other phones (Samsung Renown, a CMDA/GSM basic phone) and a Motorola quad-band GSM phone, it works fine in the US. When I move the SIM into my Droid 4, no signal, although it sometimes gives the Unrecognized SIM message. So it's not a matter of non-US sims.

I get the unrecognized SIM message also. That doesn't affect the phone one bit though, since I just press okay to the message and the phone connects to my carrier. Is your carrier one with a Verizon roaming agreement?

03. Power on phone and edit the hex values with Radiocomm see: post 29/30 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1297714&page=3
04. Power off phone
05. Remove sim card

08. Root
09. Delete STK.apk (edit: you no longer have to delete, just rename to stk.apk.bak)
10. Delete STK.odex (edit: you no longer have to delete, just rename to stk.odex.bak)
11. Modify Build.prop values as is:
ro.telephony.default_network=7
ro.mot.phonemode.vzw4gphone=0
telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=0
and add this to the bottom:
ro.telephony.ril.v3=signalstrength
12. Power off phone
13. Insert SIM
14. Power on!
15. Dial *#*#info#*#* switch to WCDMA Preferred
Should be good to go!
I'm sorry, but I need to ask a question that is probably frustratingly obvious,
When I go to use the RadioComm tool, the instructions says to put the phone in PC mode. I can't find PC mode on the phone, and whenever I try to use RadioComm, everything is red... the blood-red of failure...
How did you get around this? I've only had the phone for an afternoon (I'm enabling TMobile for a friend) so maybe I just don't know where the button for PC mode is!
Thanks for this. I was about to give up. I thought it was required to downgrade to the last GB rom (which is, apparently, impossible). I'm glad to give this a shot.

Haha... It turned out to be just as stupid an error as I thought it would be... I didn't have the correct drivers installed -.- . I installed MotoCast, rebooted, tried again, and it worked! Yay.

Also, more notes for people who are as moto-clueless as me:
Stk.apk and Stk.odex are in /system/app
build.prop is in /system
It now accepts my Tmobile SIM, but it can't find any service. I've looked around, and it seems that lots of people with TMobile are having no luck with stock ICS, but ATT works fine. Any ideas?

Do you have it working on T-Mobile? I gave it back to him this morning, but I sent him idiot-quality instructions to replace the build.prop. He says it doesn't work. He's on prepaid, so he as decided to just switch to Verizon. (This is a great idea where we live, T-Mobile has 2G and Verizon has 4G...) I hope this is an isolated instance rather than a generic problem with T-Mobile on the Bionic.
If I'm walking with him past an ATT store, I'll see if they'll let me try a SIM, so see if it was just me or if it's locked (or something?)... Unfortunately, there aren't many ATT stores for hours of where we live

Yes I have it working on T-Mobile here's a screenshot. The reason 3g/hspa+(4g) doesn't work for T-Mo everywhere with the Bionic is because they are in the process of switching bands to the standard 1900mhz band in the US. ATT users get full use of their band and 3g/hspa+(4g)

Yes they have the same type of network but they work on different bands. ATT=1900mhz T-Mo=1700mhz(switching to 1900mhz by end of year) The reason SMS/MMS isnt working is because you need to modify the build.prop file in your root folder. Ive attached the 1 click root program for the Bionic, use this to root your phone. After you root your phone you will need to download some type of root explorer so that you can access the root folder. You no longer have to delete the STK files just rename them with .bak extensions. They are located in /system/app. Then access /system and switch to R/W mode. You have to edit build.prop with the values in the guide.
T-Mobile AND AT&T

Yes they have the same type of network but they work on different bands. ATT=1900mhz T-Mo=1700mhz(switching to 1900mhz by end of year) The reason SMS/MMS isnt working is...

Works, but i'm only pulling 'Edge' Network. No 3g like before
Thank you VERY much. But i've got some information and a question...
I was too excited to try what you said to do so i didn't go back and read the instructions on post #1.
My phone had the SIM already still in it.
WCDMA was selected
Hex was still set to AT&T/Tmobile.
Then...
-- I Root it.
-- I edit files as given above.
NOTHING CHANGED! CANT SEND SMS STILL!!!
-- Powercycle.
NOTHING CHANGED! CANT SEND SMS STILL!!!
-- Reboot, wipe cache, wipe data/factory reset.
turn phone on: FULL BARS! (had to wait 1-2 minutes. and input SIM password)
Had Voice, but the calls kept failing
--Input APN for ST(att)
SMS/MMS work!!
Voice works
DATA works! ( Shows Edge2 )
My question is, Booted up on: GSM/CDMA Auto (PRL)
GSM = -80dBm
Network: home. ( i have never heard of this.)
IMEI: unknown
my phone number shows on *#*#info, and under phone information -unlikebefore it did not. Yet my IMEI isn't showing... It did before.
The network i had before i made these changes phone displayed ATT as network, not it is 'home'
network type before was HSPA/HSPA+/Edge, not it is just EDGE2.
So i'm not on ATT like before, i am on GSM?
When I send SMS/MMS to my other phone it takes 20 seconds to 5 minutes to show up on her phone.
When I am sent SMS/MMS it takes just as much time to show up on mine.
after about 20 minutes of running the phone SMS send normal speed.
I never did do the "then access /system and switch to R/W mode." Because I don't know what you mean.
when i switch to WCDMA preferred, it took about 3 minutes to load up a signal, The network type is still 'home' before all this it used to be 'ATT'

Yes I have it working on T-Mobile here's a screenshot. The reason 3g/hspa+(4g) doesn't work for T-Mo everywhere with the Bionic is because they are in the process of switching bands to the standard 1900mhz band in the US. ATT users get full use of their band and 3g/hspa+(4g)

T-Mobile is in the process of a complete "re-farm" mainly to make their network iphone compatiple. This means that everything on the network should be operating on the 1900mhz band by spring/summer 2013 which is when they are rumored to be getting the iphone. Regardless, if they still don't offer the iphone this refarm allows any unlocked iphone to be used on their network and get full HSPA+. You can bring an unlocked iphone into their store now and they'll put it on their network but if you don't live in an area where the re-farm is complete you'll only get EDGE access.
This update also applies to any other phone that operates on the 1900mhz band, not just the iCrap. T-Mo also just bought MetroPCS which, in itself, is not a huge deal as far as coverage goes BUT they also get all of Metro's spectrum (plus the spectrum they got from ATT and the failed merger) so they are actually lining themselves up to be the carrier with the most available spectrum as the FCC only has so much to auction off. I am seriously considering jumping ship for them even with my grandfathered unlimited data. They've got unlimited everything for cheaper but I have to see how service is.
I honestly was not aware the Bionic was HSPA+... probably just from not researching it as I have VZW anyway right now... My contract is up in March and even though I am grandfathered unlimited I might give them a shot. They actually charge less for "bring your own phone" and their deals are pretty good. Wife wants iphone and with the re-farm she could have one on T-Mo but her contract is not up till March 2014 so the ETF plus unlocked iphone... $1k... um no... Maybe when she sees how awesome ICS is vs GB she'll change her mind...

can I ask what you mean when you say you input sim password? Im trying to get it to work on t-mobile... Well I have 2 bionics, one is mine and I got t-mobile working fine using the radiocomm edit, removing the apk/ and odex file listed by DBoyFresh954 and doing the build prop edit listed by him in the same first post. but the 2nd bionic is my friends and I cant get t-mobile working on it. The only thing thats not the same on the two bionics is my friends is HW B 43/11 while mine is HW A 34/11. If anyone might have a fix or can explane the sim unlock that scarocean was talking about please do post or pm me would be most thankful
HELP!!
Okay, so I got my T-Mobile SIM card in today. Followed everything perfectly and still nothing. No service or anything. I double checked my area for coverage and confirmed that T-Mobile does have service here. I'm on stock 246. I rooted, applied the gsm unlock zip, re-named the stk files, edited the build.prop settings, and switched to WCDMA Preferred. I have the HW B version if that matters. I've been looking everywhere and can't seem to find an answer. Could somebody help please?!
Edit: My phone is now showing AT&T as the network. Also noticed that my Signal is reading -81 dBm and 16 asu. Isn't that a good signal?

I followed post #1 exactly and my Bionic works on T-Mobile.
What do you mean where you said "applied the gsm unlock zip" --- Either I missed this part or do not understand what you are referring to.
Running rooted Bionic on Synergy ROM on T-Mobile.
I do have a question though....
How to prevent phone from going back to LTE when rebooting. Not the worst thing but have to modify the radio each time phone is rebooted???
Also the ones who got it to work as well, are you getting 3G??? I feel as though I am not....
Thanks again to the person who started Post #1 --- Saved me $$ from buying a new phone from T-Mobile.

I flashed a zip that does what you did in Radiocomm. I finally got fed up with the problems and went to AT&T and got a SIM with prepaid. Works great! I just could never get the T-Mobile SIM card to work. Didn't go to waste though. Unlocked my wife's Torch and used it for that.
I have no idea how to make the settings stick for reboots. Odd, that your settings don't stay on WCDMA Preferred. Mine stays after reboot.
I think the Bionic can only get 2G until T-Mobile has finished their refarm. I think there's only a couple that have been set. Don't quote me on that though. Haven't really looked into it a whole lot.

just a bit more about files and build prop
I have the droid bionic and I was attempting to get my at&t service on the bionic. I have made it as far as the root step. Where do I find the files to delete? I have a folder /system on my PC but I can't find /system on the bionic. Where is the /system/app folder? Do I need to use device manger find it? A few more details would be much appreciated. a list of files and programs needed would be a nice addition to walkthrough. Just a thought. Plz help thanks

Download ES File Explorer. Hit the menu button once you open it and go to settings. Scroll down to root settings and select all options. Go back to the main menu and hit the Up button at the very top. Scroll down and click on "System." Once in you'll see the "App" folder immediately. Click on that and scroll down to the STK apk's. Once your done renaming go back once and scroll down till you find the build.prop. Click it and use the ES note editor to edit the settings.
As far as adding the signal strength to the build.prop goes just scroll all the way down and add it there.

When you do this edit, can you switch back to Verizon's CDMA/LTE by switching sim cards or do you need to redo both the apks and Hex edit?

TRY THIS *#2263#. Or this *#*#4636#*#* in phone's Dialer.
I bought At&t Note 3, unlocked it to use it with Tmobile sim and i was only getting EDGE or LTE No WCDMA, so googled and found these 2 codes.
I used *#2263# and selected line #6 for LTE and WCDMA only. i don't want GSM(2g Edge). now It works perfectly for me.
Since At&t locked the bootloader of this phone and we can't have custom rom, I might return this and get Tmobile Note3.

I did that and for some reason my phone was receiving calls but not notifying me, or the service was just really patchy in areas that I use my note 2 in and pick up LTE with no issue, with T-mobile that is

Yes, it IS possible to enable T-Mobile HSPA+ 42Mbps bands on your AT&T Galaxy Note 3, it’s running just fine on mine.
Step 1. You will need to put your AT&T Galaxy Note 3 SGH-i317 into a special modem mode so dial “*#7284#” on your phone.
Step 2. Choose “Qualcomm USB settings”.
Step 3. Choose “RNDIS + DM + MODEM” then connect a micro USB cable from your AT&T Note 3 to your computer.
Step 4. Make sure you have Samsung USB drivers installed, if you don’t download and install Samsung USB drivers first.
Next, open up Device Manager on your computer and find “Samsung Mobile USB Serial Port” under Ports. Make a note of the COM number, in my case is “27″.
Step 5. Download and install QPST and start the QPST Configuration program from link http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/tools/QPST/QPST_2.7_build_323.zip Next, hit the “Ports” tab and click on “Add New Port”.
Step 6. Uncheck “Show Serial and USB/QC Diagnostic ports only”, choose the COM port with the number you noted earlier then hit “OK”.
Step 7. Choose “Start Clients” and choose “SOFTWARE DOWNLOAD”.
Step 8. Choose the “Backup” tab, hit “Browse” for Port and choose your COM number, hit “Browse” for QCN File and make a new file name for the QCN file you will be making a backup of. We will be backing up the NV Memory on your phone just in case you mess up something. Then hit Start.
Step 9. This will restore NV Memory with T-Mobile 3G/4G bands enabled.
Hit the “Restore” tab, set Port to your COM number.
Next, choose the QCN File as “ATT_I317_AWSMOD_dumimei.qcn”. (http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyNote2/atthowto/enabletmo3g4g/ATT_I317_AWSMOD_dumimei.qcn)
Then hit “Start” button. If you get a warning just hit “OK”
Step 10. Once that’s done restoring, your phone will reboot. Just give it about a minute as it will reboot. Once rebooted, you can insert your T-Mobile SIM card and start enjoying T-Mobile 3G/4G HSPA+!

ok, so the instructions you gave are indeed for the note 2. the “*#7284#” does nothing at all on the n900a, BUT, after some digging i did find that if you use *#0808# instead, the menu you spoke of does come up. now, my concern is whether the aws mod file specified for the note 2 will work for the note 3. would anyone know or be willing to give it a try? I literally just got the n900a as a gift yesterday even though i use tmobile.

So, is there a way to get all t-mobile frequencies supported on AT&T Note 3 with t-mobile sim?
Thanks
This is really quite simple.
This HOW TO will show you how to keep your Sprint HTC One from dropping data and or signal while on GSM.
This solves the dropping of GSM when going from tower to tower.
There is a full video how to on our Youtube channel TK Tech News,
You need
CDMA WS, Or DFS CDMA Tool.
Make sure to put the HTC ONE in CDMA Mode
Dial ##3424#
Connect to your computer,
Open CDMA WS
Connect to port that has HTC DIAG 9K
Connect
Go to security, Select HTC Method and read SPC
Send SPC
Write SPC 000000
Go to main tab
Toggle over until you get to the tab that offers RUIM, RUIM Available, NV-RUIM, Or NV ONLY
Select RUIM Only.
Click write
Reboot and you are good to go.
This solves the connection issues, I have driven up and down the east cost and not lost service with this method, The video may explain it better.
Being I am new on XDA as a "Poster" I cant post the video but you can easily find it on the channel.
Thanks.
Also working on a GPE port for the Sprint Version
Looking forward to lots of development, Will be posting ROMS and other mods as soon as I am able to do so.
If a mod wants to allow me to be able to do this earlier that would be great.
TK
Free way of doing it!
For those of you like me that do not want to pay any money do the following.
1. Install QPST Download
2. Start -> Programs -> QPST -> QPST Configuration
3. Click Add New Port... and select the correct Port (HTC Diagnostic Interface - 9K)
4. On QPST Configruation windows click Start Clients->Services Programming and click OK
5. Find Tab 1xHDR Security
6. Change to R-UIM
7. Click Wirte to Phone and waiting for cell phone reset. Will ask you for your SPC code.
Now to get the SPC code I used CDMADevTerm. QPST can prolly do it but I have no clue how.
1. Phone Tab -> Setup -> Scan Ports
2. Select HTC Diagnostic Interface - 9K
3. Click Read SPC and you have your code. You can change it here as well
All credit goes to TK Tech News, I only found a free way of doing the same thing.

You are telling me that you are on a sprint htc one on TMobile?
Also are you telling me that I have to use 4.1.2 in order for it to work?

I am on Sprint HTC One and I am on 4.1.2 because the sim unlock works best as well as the connection. I have tried 4.3 and 4.4 but had weird problems like no audio or it wouldnt work at all, could just be the rom

For sure.
So it seems this was not the total fix for me. It works awesome until the phone attempts to switch to another tower and the service just drops out completely and doesn't want to re-register automatically. Any other ideas? Browsing around with QPST and see some interesting things, but know you can get into trouble while writing the wrong thing.

Have you tried using different Radios? I was on a newer one and constant drops but then I switched to older one and haven't had any drop issues whatsoever with the fix from this thread.
Here is the link to the thread for Sprint HTC One radios.

connection drops a lot less. I'm getting improved signal indoors than before. Overall, worth trying out to see if it fixes anything.

Sure have. I've all but given up on this idea. I've tried every suggestion that has been in any thread about this and nothing has helped. I've read every post and thread that has anything to deal with this unlock. I've tried 4.1.2 / 4.3 / 4.4.2 roms both Sprint Sense UI and CM based. I've tried international roms with Sprint support. I've tried cobbling together my own rom with bits and pieces of this and that. Tried different radios on the different configurations. Played around with settings in QPST (scary). Used apps and settings to force roaming only. Tried working T-mobile and AIO Wireless SIM cards. There just really isn't anything to be done at this point, I feel. It works great until the phone switches to another tower. I can hot reboot and service will come back and hot reboot again and data will come back too. Unfortunately that isn't good enough. But it is what it is and just another reason I am glad I don't have any reason to get a Sprint phone or service for myself.
Are there actual confirmations of service NOT dropping out for someone in the US? If so, what is your set up?
Hmm, I take it the diag code changes if I'm on a non-sense ROM? ##DIAG# didn't work for me.

For those of you like me that do not want to pay any money do the following.
1. Install QPST Download
2. Start -> Programs -> QPST -> QPST Configuration
3. Click Add New Port... and select the correct Port (HTC Diagnostic Interface - 9K)
4. On QPST Configruation windows click Start Clients->Services Programming and click OK
5. Find Tab 1xHDR Security
6. Change to R-UIM
7. Click Wirte to Phone and waiting for cell phone reset. Will ask you for your SPC code.
Now to get the SPC code I used CDMADevTerm. QPST can prolly do it but I have no clue how.
1. Phone Tab -> Setup -> Scan Ports
2. Select HTC Diagnostic Interface - 9K
3. Click Read SPC and you have your code. You can change it here as well
All credit goes to TK Tech News, I only found a free way of doing the same thing.

This is really quite simple.
This HOW TO will show you how to keep your Sprint HTC One from dropping data and or signal while on GSM.
This solves the dropping of GSM when going from tower to tower.
There is a full video how to on our Youtube channel TK Tech News,
You need
CDMA WS, Or DFS CDMA Tool.
Make sure to put the HTC ONE in CDMA Mode
Dial ##3424#
Connect to your computer,
Open CDMA WS
Connect to port that has HTC DIAG 9K
Connect
Go to security, Select HTC Method and read SPC
Send SPC
Write SPC 000000
Go to main tab
Toggle over until you get to the tab that offers RUIM, RUIM Available, NV-RUIM, Or NV ONLY
Select RUIM Only.
Click write
Reboot and you are good to go.
This solves the connection issues, I have driven up and down the east cost and not lost service with this method, The video may explain it better.
Being I am new on XDA as a "Poster" I cant post the video but you can easily find it on the channel.
Thanks.
Also working on a GPE port for the Sprint Version
Looking forward to lots of development, Will be posting ROMS and other mods as soon as I am able to do so.
If a mod wants to allow me to be able to do this earlier that would be great.

They did not set up your phone in store your you? They are kind of Nazi about that.
Do you have your SIM card installed correctly? If the SIM is not in, or not in correctly then 4G wont work.
Also do you have mobile data turned on, have to ask.
Mine data is set to global and works but yeah try setting it to CDMA/LTE

Settings, Tethering & Networks, Mobile Networks, System Select, LTE/CDMA. If you don't have that option, something is up with your phone, might be a bad sim or something, take it back to the store.
I've had mine on global since forever. Global does not turn off LTE. Perhaps something is physically wrong. Check the SIM
You need a new SIM. Happened to me. Did a bunch of research and there was hints of the SIM that comes with the phone by default sometimes having an issue with 4G. I called Verizon and they sent me one next day. Installed it and been fine ever since.
Try it, It is free and I am pretty sure it will fix it.

If you have a local (not 3rd party) store, you can get a SIM free there also.
