HTC M8 3G/4G not working - Sprint HTC One (M8)

Greetings. I've got a sprint har/kar m8 s-off (sunshine) latest bad boyz 2.1. Thanks to OMJ I got sim working in europe, but the only working mode is GSM/UMTS and automatic which is choosing the same. Therefore I don't have internet trough my operator ( wifi is working ofc )
I guess it because we have different band frequencies or something like that but is it possible to fix this, because this is starting to annoying me a lot!
As using it in Europe I wish to have nothing in common with SPrint, Is it possible to put a ROM not for sprint or edited one without any sprint stuff? I am paranoic type when it comes to phones , are there kinda "anonymous" rom which fit my M8? I think I am ready to turn back Google Play and all these stuff...... They are really annoying when it comes to access.
Thank you!

Thank you for your answer! I tried it several times with no luck.
Please note I have sim unlocked my phone while a go (thank you) using these instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52145162&postcount=2 . My phone is having signal and I can talk but no internet at all.
When i turn on mobile data under it is shown
Code:
Disconnected because service is unavailable
. Inside the Menu on the first option
Code:
4G settings
under network provider i see mine. On
Code:
Access point names
are shown 2 APNs - wap-gprs.MyProvider. and mms-gprs.Myprovider. Manual search for networks is also working (shows me all operators here and a yellow star for mine)
In your guide you have to change a system .apk file which is otherwise patched automatically if you use the guide I have done myself before. Which only says me mine has been already patched when I followed your guide. Anyway I have replaced it and done everything but still no connection.
I saw @Cashreedhar (first guide I used author) says its Permanent and until now after several formats and rom changes ( tried venom 2.4 but went back) I haven't got gsm signal problems so far. I really doesn't understand why the magic is not breaking after reinstall (changing rom) (does the patched .apk stays or no) but its also gives me a clue I may be have already messed up something.
Excuse me for my confusing language but I am also confused and that's how it looks like :laugh:
My noobish logic ends here, waiting for lolipop 5 and try again : )))))))))
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hey if you followed the procedures, everything should be fine in there. Try adding apn manually for your network and force HSDPA. If you get 3g signal, you should also be getting the internet.

i think i broke my phone :( help needed

hi all
i thought i would attempt to flash my samsung s with the new beta froyo update.
i followed this guys tutorial.
( cant link to it sorry its the noobs guide with detailed instructions through kies and odin)
i used the odin approach
i managed to root the phone.
on reboot it asked for an unlock code (o2 uk) so i went on to try and follow the steps about unlocking it. which neither worked all the way through the steps.
on reboot it appears to have signal and in the about section it says i am onnected to the o2 network but when i try to make a call is says "data network not available with an ok button, which when pressed will return you to the ome screen.
any help would be greatly appreciated thanks
Almost the same problem,
installed 2.2 update successfully, the phone worked for like 3-4 days very well and after that today i discovered "Emergency calls only"
so the question now is did i bought phone which later was reported stolen? or somehow i broke it?
Anyone have any idea?
hmmm, I have the same problem! In the status menu, the number is shown, but the network, says "unknown"
Hi! I have this exact same problem except I was unlocking my phone using this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906255
But I didn't back up my Efs folder, now my phone is unlocked but when I put a sim card in it I have very little network and when I try to make a call I get " NO DATA NETWORK AVAILABLE".
I've tried everything but I don't know what to do!
I was thinking of two ways to fix it:
1. Reinstall froyo (not quite sure how using the samsung software as my laptop oesn't recognised the phone as a pone)
2. Downgrade to, get unlock code using market app and then upgrade to froyo again.
I know I messed up but now I really need to fix this.
Can someone PLEASE PLEASE help me out.

might need to change the modem in odin i think. just heard about it
did u try restarting the phone... just a wild guess...
I had the same issue before and was puzzled. Its actually a very simple solution:
1. Re-lock your phone, search through xda there is a code you have to enter
2. Unlock your phone
All done! Surprisingly easy
Try the Odin method in block 2 back to Eclair if ok then upgrade to Froyo .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=818556
However your non connection might be due to not flashing a firmware with your network settings in which case manual settings of APN .
If your IMEI has changed due to flashing and you did not back up your EFS folder then little hope but do a google / search of XDA as some have reported success .
jje
Emergency calls only
I had a custom rom that was giving that to me too. I think it means that you can access a network different from your sim (because usually emerg calls can be made from any phone I think?).
I'd try and find a rom that is optimized for your carrier or at least a modem file from a stock rom that is for your carrier. You may also need to reselect the APN settings (or enter them for your carrier). Its under settings/wireless and network/Mobile networks/access point names (use the menu button to add an APN).
you could also try re downloading and flashing the rom to make sure that is the issue. Mine said it installed OK but never booted up, redownloaded and reflashed and then it was fine but the install screens looked identical.
G
Hi! Thank you so much for everyone's replies!
My IMEI isn't changed and someone helped me check my efs files and they are all ok. I'm going to try and reflash froyo through the samsung software to see if the network lock comes back and then try to unlock again. For this I'm going to unroot the phone and follow samsungs' instructions.
I'm afraid to relock the phone as there are reports that say it completely messes everything up!
But I'll keep you guys posted! Wish me luck!!!!
PS. Any other suggestions are more than welcome!
So, a quick update on my situation.
I uninstalled busybox and unrooted my phone using the oneclick root tool.
Did a factory format and, surprise surprise, my phone now works perfectly!
Apart from the fact that it doesn't connect to kies, but that's a whole another issue!
Tank you so much to all of you who answered my cry for help!

[Q] Going flash happy on the SGT

Just got my Tmobile SGT last week and wanted to make it different from all my friends that had one. For the moment it was the talk of the crowd when it was running Gingerbread and unlocked to the network and running a bunch of nonsense/useless apps that made people laugh for hours. Well, somehow I ended up bored and ended up flashing it back to stock tmobile. Well, now it does not connect to the carrier and the power button just restarts the whole damn thing. And also it will not go into recovery nor download mode either. Can anyone guide me in the right direction to make it work like how it did before I owned it??? Thanks.
Strange if your tab boots into gui but you cannot go into recovery or dl mode.......
Today again I started tinkering with it and got it back running correctly. I ended up rooting it with z4root then put CWM Recovery to gain back the ability to get into recovery and dl mode. Yay! And so.... I ended up flashing it again, but this time used Overcome-Gingerbread and followed the directions CAREFULLY. Everything turned out just fine and dandy except I still cant connect to the service carrier. I think this happened when I removed the sim network lock thing. Any advice pls?

did you flash the correct modem?
Yup, I used the TMobile US one.
Okay I think I might be wording this wrong...
Noticed in the status screen it shows "T-Mobile" under Network and "In Service" under Service State. Meaning I am connecting to my carrier, correct??? And also TMobile shows up on the top right corner when on the lock screen.
But when I try to browse the Internet it returns with pop up "No network connection Unable to load page. Internet not connected."
Mmmm your APN settings are correct?
Yep! Even try a few different ones also.

In light of this, I would be pointing fingers at the apn settings, that and silly but check to make sure data is turned on in the settings.
Other than that I'm out of ideas
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
i believe u must flash your old stock rom CSC or replace it via root explorer .. after u did that ... fire up the dialer .. write *#272*IMEI# then choose your country code
or if you are in euro just forget all this steps and do only the *#272*IMEI# STEP and you'll get your 3g up and work

[Q] Razri - JellyAOSP 1.2 ROM and data only via wi-fi

Razr i XT890 JB - Bootloader was successfully unlocked and installed JellyAOSP 1.2
Now can only access data through wi-fi but can use the dialler.
Any help to solve this much appreciated.
Hi,
You should first check your APN configuration.
If your configuration is ok, then you should ask the rom dev if it's a known issue or not.

Many thanks Ciberbeb for replying.
I have entered and saved the correct APN settings so can send and receive calls.
It is only data via mobile network [wifi ok] that is the problem.
I can't post on Dev pages as I'm a noobie.
You're welcome
Actually, configuring your APN is needed to be able to use data over the mobile network.
You can check your mobile provider for a particular configuration for android.
That's all I can tell...
I may take a screenshot of my configuration but it's specific to my country and operator.
Thanks Ciberbeb
My provider confirmed the correct APN details and they're saved - which is presumably why I can make and receive calls. Same details worked in my HTC for calls and data whereas this one onnly accepts wi-fi.
You're welcome
Alright, so that's weird ...
And does it work if you restore an nandroid of your original rom ?
If yes, then this may be a ROM issue, and you should contact the ROM cooker.

Thanks Ciberbeb for your thoughtful help.
I made the most basic error and didn't back up original ROM [and Moto not much help].
Now ditching the phone and back to old HTC
Really appreciated your input. Thanks
Ahh ! Always perform a nandroid backup prior to flashing !!
You should know this
Anyway, you can use RSD Lite to restore the original Moto rom.
I however don't really know the procedure, so you best read these topics:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1974568 for basics on Moto tools
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2239706 for original firmwares
Take care with the tools, you're bootloader is unlocked, don't brick your phone!
You can try another rom as well, to confirm if it's a rom issue or not.
You can now push the thanks button
EDIT: You may try a factory reset before anything else. Did you wipe cache/data before flashing JellyAOSP?
Thanks Ciberbeb
Yes, not backing up was a huge mistake but not had any probs before so didn't this time.
Will look carefully at the links you've kindly found and have nothing to lose now so will try anything [well almost!].
Factory reset hasn't worked and Moto weren't helpful with software [understandabe really I suppose].
Did try two other ROMS [completely wiping system before each one] but they didn't install. Perhaps I've a rogue phone... or just a rogue user. LOL
Hitting Thanks... with much gratitude!
What's your problem, again? You don't have mobile network, like edge, h, 3g? If that's the case you need to set proper apns or get apns-conf.xml from another rom you know brings the ones you need. But it has nothing to do with making calls or sending texts, that's a signal thing.

Thanks Anerik for replying [and a brilliant ROM that is fast and clean].
My only problem was not being able to get data via 3G.
I manually entered the usual configs through the APN menu and saved it. When this didn't work I requested a new sim card [in case micro to nano was causing the issue] but the provider texted the apn installation file through for the new sim and I still have the same prob with no data in the Razri except through wifi.
This was the only ROM that installed cleanly and quickly so it is probably something stupid that I've done!
To save your time I'll clarify the following:
The bootloader procedure was successfully and cleanly executed.
The Root Checker confirmed this.
JellyASOP on SD card was installed easily on a fully wiped phone as your instructions.
No problem anywhere else when in wifi mode.
Thanks for your time and patience

Did you do all the correct wipes? Try reinserting the sim, it could automatically insert the proper apns. Tried changing places to see if it's not a location thing? This never happened to anyone on my rom, im sorry i dont have a solution

Have tried reinserting sim and done a manual apn input. Will try location suggestion 2mrw.
Am sure it isn't your ROM and beginning to think it's a Motorola fault as I went down the rooting process because the phone wouldn't read a sim [which I think is a common fault].
Hitting thanks and just sorry it didn't sort out my Razri cos is a great prog you've written.

[NOVUS][INFO][JFLTESPR][Sprint/Boost Mobile APN-FLASH *SPARK*]

I spent the last few days on my phone learning all about flashing Cyanogenmod, the differences between SPH-L720/SPH-L720T and wanted to put everything I learned about my experience in one thread as it is pulled from countless sites.
I have the Boost Mobile Galaxy S4 SPH-L720T, rooted, flashed CM13(unofficial) with LTE Triband aka "Spark" working, confirmed.
Here is what I know:
1) Sprint Mobile and Boost Mobile are all on the same frequency's.
2) jfltespr Rom for the SPH-L720 also works on SPH-L720T. It's only a Rom, zero difference between the "T" version and regular in terms of the OS, the "T" is hardware.
3) The difference between SPH-L720 and SPH-L720T hardware wise is that the SPH-L720T can receive multiple channels for downloading on the LTE network and the SPH-L720 can only do one, This is the "Enhanced LTE" or "Spark" you hear about.
4) For Boost Mobile, Installing the jfltespr Sprint build for the SPH-L720 or SPH-L720T will not work out of the box. You need to flash the Universal_Boost_APN_Fix-R2.2.zip. After loading in the CM Zip, zip this as well. If you forget, no biggie go back and do it after. This will fix your APN's, label your carrier correctly, which in turn allow you to use LTE, MMS, Triband aka "Spark" (You will not see the spark spiny thing, but it will work, keep reading). Also, side note you may need to wait and/or restart your phone a few times after you are set up with CM. Basically your phone needs to send info to the carrier tower and it all needs to sync up. Mine was fully working in under 20 mins. It's like when you activate a phone for the first time is all.
5) To verify the Triband or "Spark" is working download LTE Discovery App. The Triband or "Spark" Network runs on 800mhz Band 26 for voice, 1900mhz Band: 25 for Up/Down Data, and 2500mhz Band 41 for Down Data but at a higher DL rate. See these articles for more details, Sprint Network Explained, Frequency Faq's
UPDATE: I changed a setting in the MMS, turns out Boost Mobile requires a Username for mobile data to work correctly. This is now Ver. 2.2.

Hi there. What do you mean by "zip this as well"? Do you mean upon fresh installing CM we should also add the "Universal Boost APN" zip at the same time (in TWRP for example)?
I am guessing my issue is totally different, but thought I would ask anyways. I have a Samsung S4 on RingPlus (not Boost, but still an MNVO on Sprint). I have CM12 installed. everything works great except MMS. I can send normal text but cannot send (or receive) photos/multimedia. It complains about APN settings. I have a fresh CM installed so I'm willing to try anything to trial and error this thing.
Thanks for any ideas.

You can flash at the time you install the rom to save the APNs as default, or you can zip any time. However, if you flash after the install your default will be whatever CM's where.
This zip may not fully work for you then, but I did do some googling for you and found this below, if those apn settings work, let me know and I'll try to make a zip for you for future roms and quick flashing

Did you clear the data, cache and delvik cache first? The only reason I ask is because I made that mistake trying to "test a flash" before I lost all my stuff. Remember, you'll only have the space for the micro Gapps without re-partitioning.
Also, the Boost APN fix didn't work for me, nor the other 9 or so that I tried. Then I came across an old thread where I made a fix for the APN on my old Cyanogenmod setup with my L720 piggybacked off the work of mopedryder. , and I'll be damned. Still works even on my replacement L720T.
Not sure why, but this isn't working with the "Official" build.... Looking into this..
Yea, I was having a bear of a time with the MMS and APN stuff. It looks like they pushed some changes that messed with the "Boost APN fix R2 and also my old fix. What I found works now was hand editing the apns-conf.xml file to just the basics. Nothing but a boost apn and a very cdma apns just in case. Flash rom, flash gapps. After it booted, I copied that in to the /system/etc folder over the old one with file explorer, fixed permissions to match the old file and boom... MMS and LTE after reboot. You can give it a try if you want. Just unzip and copy/paste where I said. Let me know what you get if you try it. Also, let me know if you can edit APN settings while on wifi with this. Just curious. If it works, we can throw it in a flashable zip to flash after gapps.
MMS and LTE working!
I used the flash link provided in this thread Universal_Boost_APN_Fix-R2-2.zip This got me LTE, but still no MMS.
I followed the instructions in the last post, but they didn't work. I kept trying, and had no luck...this was before trying the flash file above.
After getting LTE, I decided to see what I could find inside of the apns-conf file. I checked out the settings and then did some searches for APN settings and found that the line for APN type was potentially misconfigured, so I edited it manually in the apns-conf file, because I REALLY didn't want to flash my phone for the umpteenth time. I also changed the bearer number to "0"
The previous type was: "default,supl,mms,dun,fota"
The type I found through apn.gishan.net was: "default,admin,fota,mms,supl,hipri"
Once I changed that in both lines that the type appeared in and changed the bearer numbers to "0" my MMS started working, as well.
Hope this helps someone out there so they don't have to search as long as I did.
Sprint Samsung Galaxy s4 moved to Boost Mobile
Icky Samsung system, I will not miss you.
Hi everyone, kinda new to the S4 forums. (not Android dev) my current daily driver is a SPARK on boost (running cm13) and my wife has the L720 also on boost. So given that I have the rare opportunity to dig into both activated devices and collect all the radio/modem/APN data from them in order to help this thread and maybe actually contribute something instead of just lurking and reading
So after about 3 weeks of digging and testing and comparing, also trying the edits suggested above on what works for them I have found the proper network settings in the apn-conf.xml. my attempt was to get them as close to the stock ok3 apns as possible and they are very close. MMS works great, LTE shows up right after boot. I also found that after flashing Unerversal_Boost_APN_fix.zip, sometimes mobile data (LTE) would not come back after WiFi was on and then disconnected like when l left the house for work. Toggling airplane mode did no good. Only a reboot would get LTE back. That problem seems to be solved too.
I also took apart the Universal_Boost_APN_fix.zip provided in the op, studied and compared it to stock files and my ok3 modem logs.
In the fixprop.sh, the
sed -i 's/ro.telephony.default_network=.*$/ro.telephony.default_network=8/' /system/build.prop
Command sets the build.prop ro.telephony.default_network to =8
But in both L720 and SPARK, stock boost ok3 the network is =10 so I edited that.
Also I found that
sed -i 's/gsm.operator.numeric.*$/gsm.operator.numeric=311870/' /system/build.prop
Makes the build.prop call for the apns with the numeric tag =311870. but in the apn_conf.xml the apn numeric tag was = 310120 so I just changed the apn to =311870 so now the build.prop will set the right apns on boot.
Something else I found when reading modem logs from both the L720 and the spark is that in the spark, the modem actually calls for
ro.product.name=jflterefreshspr and ro.build.product=jflterefreshspr from the build.prop
I never could find out why it would need that ( and I tried) but my deductive reasoning tells me that it must have to do with initiating tri-band traffic somehow on the network. It only happens on boot but never after that. The L720 ok3 modem does not call for a name from the build.prop at all. So I added commands to the fixprop.sh to change some of the values to the =jflterefreshspr SPARK name and =L720T in the build.prop as well.
Of course, that makes the install.zip proprietary and not unerversal anymore and L720 users would need there own version so here's what I have guys.
All credits go to the original creators of these scripts. All I did was make a few changes.
Flash cm13, gapps(or not), then the APN.zip and reboot.
Note: You might notice after a reboot that the carrier will display as "sprint" but toggling airplane mode then displays "boost mobile" don't worry, it's just a display issue. network and mobile data work with no issues. I think it's something in cm13. started happening around 07/09 nightly
Sorry for the long drawn out post!! :silly:

Will this work with other ROMs as well, or only CM?
I want to flash Wicked X, but I'm on boost.
The apn.zips should work on any AOSP ROM.
Not for TouchWiz ROMs
You don't need it for WickedX.
WickedX will install BoostID and set your apn settings right after it boots the first time just like stock boost ROM. After all, it is just the stock Samsung firmware with a bunch of mods added to it.
AOSP(CyanogenMod) is NOT Samsung firmware. It is compiled completely from a different source which is why the .zips are needed
If you're running CM13 stock, CM doesn't use muppets, with my build I did, so might be tempted to do a build soon, might not, truth be told I kinda gave up because of how much of a pain in the ass CDMA and MVNO's are becoming.

I totaly agree
UPDATED
These have been tested extensively on both models.
Cell network, MMS, and switching between wifi & cell 3G and LTE work flawlessly.
I've edited them so they can be dirty flashed with ROM updates. They actually seem to work better after a dirty flash now.
Instructions:
In recovery,
Wipe: system, data, cache
Install/flash cm13 nightly.zip
Install/flash Gapps
Install/flash Boost_APNs_(your device).zip
Reboot
Boost_APNs_L720T.zip
Boost_APNs_L720.zip

SOLVED: Full mobile 4G+ data signal, but no data comes through

Hi everyone
I have a strange problem. I bought the "International" version, which was of course the Tencent with a flashed ROM. Although it was sold as "International" hehe
I didn't have Google Pay working and I've flashed the 1703 together with fingerprint, re-locked it down after and then updated with the latest firmware from the Asus website. (Google Pay works now)
Version WW-16.0631.1908.21
I now see that even though I have a FULL 4G+ signal. Calls come through normally etc. but the internet on mobile data simply doesn't work.
Anybody have any advice what else I could do?
EDIT:
It was a simple APN problem

There are no topics on how to get OTA, i googled, all topics say its Impossible.
I want to know how he used offical update to update the phone, i just updated using one of the updates here in FASTBOOT mode.
If you know about topic that can enable REAL OTA that works or if you at least know how i can use ASUS offical updates to update [ mean i assume you just copy the zip file to the USB and it auto updates?]
Do tell me

Idk how to turn on real OTA thing, but if u want update to official ROM (copy zip file to internal storage), make sure your fingerprint set to same with your ROM (ex: WW ROM with WW Fingerprint), that works with me

I just googled what my mobile phone carrier APN was and entered it instead of the wrong one.
You can find the one in the phone by simply going to settings > network and internet > mobile network -> APN ( Access Point Names )
I just started having this issue yesterday! Phone has been working great for over a month then all of a sudden 4g shows it's on and connected but no mobile data coming through! My APN is correct, and I'm using Straight Talk through the TMobile network... Still haven't been able to fix it.
Same issue here internet connection dropping
I wonder if T-Mobile is doing some "dry runs" before they officially light up their 5G network on December 6th. (src: https://www.t-mobile.com/coverage/4...d=WMM_TMO_P_19NETWRK5G_91WOGGGY1WERV94JC18747)
I am having same issue. Adding APN works for few hours. Then drops out. What to do? Did you guys find any solution?
Assalam alaykum
I suffered from dropping internet dropping connection
The solution was APN
Go to settings > network and internet > mobile network -> APN ( Access Point Names )
click the ( Access Point Names ) and you will find many APN setting Depend on your internet provider
Click one of them and then and on far top right option button click (delete APN)
Repeat this until you delete them all
Click the ( + ) sign to create new APN
Now go to thia site:
https://www.apnsettings.org/
And search for your country or internet provider
Copy the APN setting from the website to you your phone
Then save.
Hope it could help you
In case you couldn't connect to the internet at all
you can always restore your previous setting by :
Go to settings > network and internet > mobile network -> APN ( Access Point Names )
on far top right option button click (reset to default)
