4G down in Las Vegas area
3G works just fine

Sounds like the radios got messed up because of a possible bad flash. Try re-downloading Tweakstock v1.4.zip and reflash in CWM. If that doesn't work, ODIN back to stock and then install Tweakstock. That's my best guess.

Your radio probably screwup. You need to Odin the factory stock image and the PIT file. Download PIT file and factory image from here, then ODIN to your phone.

Another thing I can think of is make sure 4G is working in your area. If that doesn't resolve the issue then give Verizon tech support a call and they can reset your phone ID on their side. (This is same as when you bought your phone and tried to register and it's not working, but they can reset and it should work after that) unless you have hardware issue.

If you still can't get it to work Odin back to original stock and take it in to the Verizon store and play dumb. It may be a little dishonest but it's worth not having a phone with no ability to call, text, or use data.

Haha, try flashing the actual radio itself-if you look somewhere they have it as a separate file, in the same thread with the stock stuff. My radio has also mysteriously gone kaput before and that's always what fixes it.

If you flashed EP1W, you're already rooted. I don't know of any EP1W builds that have been released unrooted. Check for the Superuser app. You should have it, and if you do, you're rooted.

the CWM file should be a .tar or .tar.md5 and you put it in PDA (never touch any of the other buttons except PIT), uncheck auto reboot box as well since you should have the battery in to flash with Odin... after it successfully flashes unplug the phone and pull the battery, then put the battery back in and hold volume up + home + power until 'Samsung' comes up then let go of power while holding the other buttons still until CWM comes up then flash superuser there

NP, hopefully that does the trick
Going back to Froyo rom you will have load the Rom and radio as well. I find that this is maybe a longer process, but since I never have a problem I just stick to it.
This link - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996616
Go to step 1 and then grab this file - PG05IMG_MR1_upgrade.zip
rename to PG05IMG.zip and put in root of SD card and flash via hboot
I find it more fool proof almost to just load this up and then restore my Froyo backup after. There are several ways to actually go back, I just find this one less prone to me for making an error

So you are now getting 3G on gingerbread? That seems more than what you had before? if 3G works then 4G should as well. You can try to download the LTE on/off app and then you can check and change that setting

[Q] Odd sounds while in a call.

While the phone is dialing out or while in a conversation, it makes sounds like someone is breathing. I know it sounds weird but sometimes it sounds like a toilet flushing. I dont know if someone hacked my phone or if its a hardware/software thing. Just curious if anyone else has had this happen to them. Also im running octane 3.0 and this did not occur when i was on stock unrooted. Thanks in advance!

Pretty much any of them. People generally use a different modem to get better data speeds in their respective location.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
It could be your sim card. If the sim card has connectivity issues, this sound is known to happen. Switch out your Sim with someone else and use the phone. if the sound happens on the phone with someone else's Sim, then it is your sd card. remove the sd card and format it on your computer. Then, with the sd card still removed, do a factory reset and make a few calls with your actual sim in the phone; without adding your google account. See if it persists. place the sd card back in the phone and add your account, buy don't add apps until you've tested it out. After a day (my recommendation), add one app at a time. make some test calls because you could dl an app with a virus, which can be causing connectivity issues.
Good idea with swapping the modem. I haven't tried that one. Thanks for the suggestion.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Interesting ideas about the SIM & SD card. I'd be curious to know if/why either of those would cause that weirdness.
I'm going to try the KI3 modem a bit later. I'll report back after some testing.

Indeed they can. I flashed KI3 via CWM earlier. Check out FBis251's [Odin/CWM] Modems (10/29/2011 added KJ6 modem) page. There's a link to his CWM-flashable modems.

Droid Charge Stuck In Some Kind Of Test Mode

So I'm trying to fix a phone for someone but I can not find a way. Basically the phone says the IMEI is all 0's and even if you put a sim in it has a O with a line through it instead of service bars but still shows the 4G icon. Also it has all this stuff written on the screen that I've attached pictures of. Going into the settings says all 0's for the IMEI. I've tried factory resets and using ODIN to flash stock but no luck, I've thought of just restoring the IMEI but not to sure that would solve it
Yeah it looks like you need to restore the IMEI. Worth a shot
