I'm getting a chance to do some extended testing with data roaming. I found a couple of other data roaming problem threads, but this issue is different than the problems discussed in those.
The HTC One is rooted, unlocked, S-OFF, stock 4.4.2 (4.06.651.4), with PRL 56018 installed from CDMA Workshop. I've installed a couple of the patches floating around for WiFi tether. I also have an HTC EVO 4G LTE with the 56018 PRL installed via QPST.
Right now, I am in an area with extremely weak Sprint signal and decent Verizon signal. The EVO 4G LTE finds Verizon 3G EVDO and will voice/data roam just fine. SignalCheck verifies that the provider is Verizon for 1x and EVDO, with signal between -90 to -100 dB. However, the One will not data roam. SignalCheck indicates that the One finds Verizon for voice (1X), but does not connect for data roaming. If I watch SignalCheck long enough, I can see that the One will find the Verizon EVDO for a few seconds every five minutes or so, but it won't "hold" the EVDO signal. On Sprint, the ONE will find both 3G and 4G.
I've played around with various mobile data settings, but nothing seems to help. In fact, the One will pop up the messages that data roaming is in effect, but there is no data connection. Since the EVO 4G LTE will EVDO roam, it seems that the One should EVDO roam as well.
Any ideas or suggestions on what to look at? On Sprint the 3G is usually ePHRD, not EVDO, perhaps there is some issue with EVDO on the ONE? I thinking about getting Roam Control to see if that would make any difference. I haven't taken the 4.06.651.9 update either.
Thanks!
I had a chance to do some further data roaming testing with the One and Evo 4G LTE side by side.
Roam Control seems to work fine on the One, except that the color of the blue button for selecting the roaming mode is hard to distinquish.
Unfortunately, it seems that the One will not lock on to a Verizon EVDO signal. I found several areas with strong EVDO signal. The EVO connected just fine, but the One wouldn't. The One does fine with Sprint's eHRPD signal, and will lock on to the Verizon 1xRTT for voice.
I don't know how to do further debugging. I guess it could be a radio problem, an issue with the 56018 PRL and the One, or some other issue.
Any suggestions are welcome!

Providers dont like roaming, the newer the phone is the less likely it will be to roam, the first two M7 radios would not allow any roaming at all on my phone, the latest 2 do allow roaming but I need to force "roam only" with roam control, I am on the latest radio running GPE rom and use roam control to force roaming whenever verizon has a better signal and it works good. I am using PRL 56015 flashed via CDMA workshop.

Unfortunately, my One will not data roam, even with Roam Control. It sees the EVDO for a few seconds, but won't hold it.
Would there be any tweaks that could be made to the radio from CDMA Workshop that might affect the data roaming behavior?

I dont think you can tweak a radio, all I could suggest is make sure you are on the latest radio from here

I loaded PRL 56015 into the One with CDMA Workshop, but the problem remains...when roaming, the One will see the EVDO briefly but not hold it, according to SignalCheck.
I did a comparison between the various settings in the One and the EVO 4G LTE (where roaming works fine) using CDMA WS. The are significant differences, particularly on the CDMA, CDMA-2, and EVDO pages. For example, on the EVDO page, the EVO has a username ([email protected]) for HDR_User_long, but the One doesn't have one. The EVDO revision is also different. I don't know enough to fool with these settings.
Actually, the One is missing values for many settings that the EVO has. I'm beginning to wonder if somehow the One didn't get provisioned properly.
Thanks!

If you change any of them settings in CDMA workshop, save them first, if you screw something up you can reload the saved settings, I screwed with CDMA workshop alot in the past and you can do alot with it. Before screwing with them settings, did you try resetting or updating your data profile?..maybe something got messed up in the tweaking and flashing your doing. I flash all kinds of different stuff on my phone, every once in a while I flash a sense rom and update or reset my data profile just in case...

I am not on a sense rom right now and I forget the codes, try entering ##3282# or *#*#3282#*#* in your dialer, it should bring up a data menu, there should be an option to do a reset, it will basically erase your data profile and reboot, when it reboots it will do an activation and reset everything....or ##786# will completely reset everything, that has saved me once or twice but that also factory rests your phone. these will only work on a sense rom and I reccoment a backup before doing anything, just in case... if that dont work do a google search for epst codes, and find the one that resets your data profile.

I did a profile reset with ##3282#, and the behavior has changed somewhat. The One is now holding the EVDO signal according to SignalCheck. However, if I try to open a web page, a message box pops up indicating that data roaming needs to be enabled. If I tap on "data roaming" in the message box, it takes me to the mobile data settings. I have been over and over those settings, and tried different combinations of things, but I can't seem to come up with the magic setting that will make the phone think that data roaming is enabled. I am forcing roaming with Roam Control.
Is there some "hidden" setting to enable data roaming? There is a "CDMA Roaming" setting that has choices of Home/Automatic, and I have it set to Automatic. I have identical settings to the Evo in the mobile data settings, but I can't make it work on the One.

What rom are you using?, I think the stock roms from Sprint no longer have the "allow data roaming" option, Sprint tries to avoid us using roaming as much as possible, so if you are on stock rom or something close, you probly don't have this option, try flashing a modified rom that may have this option, or if you are familiar with using the exposed framework, I think there is a module you can use to enable the data roaming. I personally use Gruesomewolf's GPE rom and it has the option built in if you want to try it.

I'm on the stock 4.06.651.4 ROM (rooted and S-OFF). This is my wife's phone, and I'd like to keep it stock and simple, as she's not a techie. However, she also travels where data roaming is required, so I might have to try another ROM.
Interestingly, My EVO 4G LTE doesn't have an "allow data roaming" setting under mobile network settings that I can find, but it roams just fine. In fact, the mobile data settings on the EVO and One are almost identical, except that the One has some additional GMS options. I wonder if there is some setting in a file like build.prop that affects data roaming.
I installed a couple of native hotspot hacks on the One. In looking through the zip files for those hacks to see what they actually did (which was quite minimal), some network-related things were changed in /system/customize/ACC/default.xml relative to the file in the original ROM, and a shell script was added that executes several iptables commands. I may try to manually undo those hacks to see if it has any effect. At this point, we need the data roaming more than the hotspot.

Alot of your issues can be solved with a custom rom, you wouldnt need to install the hotspot hacks either, most have native hotspot built in.

Getting a chance to work on this issue again...it seems that the EV-DO problem with my HTC One is not limited to roaming, but also occurs on the Sprint network.
Again, doing side-by-side comparison between the HTC One and my EVO 4G LTE on Sprint network:
1) Set network mode to LTE/CDMA. According to SignalCheck, both phones will find Sprint LTE and display the 4G indicator in the status bar, and both will occasionally drop back to Sprint eHRPD for periods of 5-10 minutes (displaying the 3G icon in the status bar). Network is available to apps in both the LTE and eHRPD cases. No problems here.
2) Now...change network mode to CDMA Only. According to SignalCheck, the EVO will find Sprint EV-DO, the status indicator will change to 3G, and network is available to apps. However, on the One, SignalCheck indicates that EV-DO is found (but doesn't indicate which carrier), there is no 3G (or 4G) icon in the status bar, and apps report that there is no network. The EV-DO signal is strong for both phones.
So, it seems that on the One, LTE and eHRPD are working, but there is some kind of problem with legacy EV-DO, where the phone can find a signal, but can't complete the process of registering on the network, whether Sprint or roaming.
Do eHRPD and EV-DO use the same radio? Trying to rule out a hardware issue. I am thinking of flashing a different radio firmware. Perhaps something got corrupted when I did the OTA update.
Not that Sprint wouldn't do this, but it would seem odd to put something in the stock ROM that would prevent EV-DO, even on Sprint's network. Is there somebody out there on the stock ROM who could confirm that they can get network in CDMA only mode?
Thanks!
So, I finally got this problem solved! I had to do a ##786# "hard reset". After the reset, EV-DO works fine.
The reset process was interesting. I did backups, expecting the phone to be wiped. I entered ##786# and the phone said it was preparing, and then rebooted. But it rebooted into recovery (I have TWRP). Not being exactly sure what to do, I rebooted into the system. The phone booted up, and the provisioning process started and completed. It then fetched the PRL. But nothing was wiped out. Apps, data, and sdcard were all intact. Oh, well, no complaints, and everything seems to be working fine. I used CDMA workshop to put PRL 56018 back, and roaming seems to be working.

I know you got your issue fixed and its been a while but just a heads up in case you run into problems again, I got a replacement phone from sprint and had the exact same issues youe were having, It is a problem with the data profile not being configured correctly, in my case, the new phone did not have my user name correct, worked fine on sprint network for some reason, but I couldnt get 3g in roaming areas, using epst I put my correct user name in and everything worked perfectly...dont know what rom your running now either but NUISENSE is awesome with this phone and it has "roam only" opttion built in, no need for roam control app....
Thanks for the tip!
I'm using the stock ROM. Since my last post, I have been able to test romaing, as we've traveled off the Sprint network, and roaming 3G worked fine. The only issue was that in a one spot we were roaming on a regional carrier, and the phone had locked on a quite distant tower according to SignalCheck, instead of Verizion which had closer towers. This resulted in some loss of 3G just as we were trying to get radar data for a storm we were traveling through (bad timing). But that is most likely a PRL issue. In looking though some PRL analyis an earlier version of 56xxx on another site, Sprint apparently doesn't have roaming agreement in this particular area with Verizon. I wish I new more about PRL editing so I could fix that...
I downloaded this app to use because I wanted to turn off LTE at work. On 4g, I can't send out texts b/c the reception sucks, but I have full bars of 3g. Sooo, I tried to do CDMA only using this 4g LTE switcher app and now I cannot connect to any cell tower at all?!???! Help???

Relax... and reboot your phone. That app looks like nothing more than a way to access the phone's hidden Phone Info menu that on some phones you access by dialing *#*#4636#*#* or with an activity shortcut. What you're seeing is part of the phone, not the app. Anyway usually changes in that menu don't survive a reboot. and even if something did survive a reboot, just retrace your steps and set anything you touched back. like "LTE/CDMA auto (PRL)"

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I have tried all of the above, including a full factory reset. I did change everything back to default in that app, rebooted several times, etc. Dialing *#*#4636#*#* doesn't do anything for me. Also, it's very strange. This morning I woke up and checked it again and it seems like only the 4g lte radios are working. I can get 4g signal, but no 3g or edge. I can't make any phone calls or access my voice mail, but I still can receive sms/mms and send/receive data. I'm pretty much at a loss...Any other suggestions???

There is no edge on Verizon, it's LTE, evdo and 1x. You could try doing a PRL update. It's right under system update I think.

You could try reflashing your current android version with RSDlite. I don't know how different it is than doing a factory reset, but try it nonetheless.
Hello,
I recently updated my Z3 compact (D5803) to android 5.1.1. on the T-Mobile network here in NYC. Ever since then, I frequently lose the ability to do anything data-based with the phone. No web browing, no chatting on whatsapp. I can still make phone calls and send/receive SMS, however. The data functionality returns when on WiFi, but goes away once I switch back to LTE. In order for me to get data on LTE, I have to manually download the internet settings for my provider to my phone (this is located under the Settings menu in android). Even then, it only lasts for several minutes before the data connection is lost. T-Mobile was unable to fix the problem, and changing the SIM card didn't resolve the issue.
Anyone else experience this?
Yes, many others have the same problem, see various posts in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/discussion-5-1-1-stock-released-post-t3162309
Currently, the best workaround seems to be to disable and re-enable mobile data, or to go to airplane mode and back again. That solves the issue until you drop LTE connection the next time, then you will have to re-iterate.

Yes I am having the exact same problem since updating to 5.1.1. As the other reply says turning airplane mode off then on is the quickest way to get connectivity back (swipe down twice from the top for quick access). This is terribly frustrating though, it only lasts for a few minutes. I can't believe they pushed the update with this issue!

My phone had this issue after the over the air update. I reset the phone to factory, wiped all data. Two days on, now, and no more problems with this.
Same problem. I tried factory reset out of desperation, but it didn't work.
Love this phone, but very discouraged by this bug.

As posted in the other thread, there is now a fix/workaround:
From reddit user FishStik5: Going into the APN settings and changing the APN protocol to iPv4 only (it was iPv6 before) seems to fix the problem.
How to find the setting: Settings-> Wirelessa and Network / more -> Mobile networks -> APN -> T-mobile data -> APN protocol -> Set to IPv4.

this is a bug on 5.1.1 sony need to fix it
Any news with this issue?
No problem here with LTE on the CM 12.1 Cyanogenmod flavor of 5.1.1 on T-mobile (that I've noticed at least). But I think CM 12.1 may handle the APN settings differently (mine is set to T-Mobile LTE ipV4) from the stock ROM or it could be something Sony messed up from the AOSP code. I'm NOT suggesting anyone try a CM ROM as a solution as there are lots of downsides to unlocking your phone and flashing any non-stock ROM. But the problem does seem to be specific to the Sony ROM and not 5.1.1 in general.
I also have this problem after the update to 5.1.1 in the Netherlands. The first problem was that the update changed some mobile data settings, so I downloaded the settings from my provider. Unfortunately those settings were also incorrect as I had to manually remove the APN's Proxy and Port (they were set, be needed to be 'not set'/empty). This improved the connection a bit, but it still looses the mobile data at certain places (where the coverage is good). Did a factory reset as the Sony helpdesk suggested. For a few days this seemed to help, but again the same issue came up. The suggested solution mentioned in this thread did not work as those settings are already applied.
I have a profider (Telfort) which uses another provider's network (KPN's). So after the update I also see a annoying R in the signal icon, where in the previous version it always showed H+, H, 3G.
Does anyone know if this is resolved in the new update?
After the last update and a new reconfiguracion on the APN now work correct for me.
