LTE won't stick in phone info (no 4G) - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I am currently in Eugene Oregon which as far as I know has 4G. I am not getting any 4G and when I downloaded "phone info" from the store it says I'm connected to gsm and cdma not lte. That seems to be my problem. But when I change it to lte/cdma/gsm it won't stick. I reopen the app and it goes back. Can anyone help me get my 4G
I'm running synergy 1.3 with imoseyon's kernel v12.
Thanks

Did you happen to put the jellybomb theme on? Because if thats the case then using phone info with that theme seems to cause issues. Only solution for that is to restore to a nandroid and pray it works.

Pop up your dialer, type *2767*3855# and it will reset your SIM card and you'll be back in business...

I figured it out. 4G doesn't work with the jelly bomb theme. Odd bug but very annoying
Edit: and so did you guys too lol

Yeah this is a possible problem. The back has connectors for the antenna, and not having it properly secured could cause connectivity issues. Also a bad SIM card is something to check as well.
Try the OTA MR2 radio. It's working great for me. The newly leaked GB radio from chingy gave me some odd wifi issues.
On a side note, if you work in a place with stainless steel walls, you won't get 4G

Are you getting 3g? If you are getting 3g and just not getting 4g try checking to see if you are on CDMA/ EvDo auto and if you are change it to either CDMA + LTE/EvDo auto or LTE only

Same here, just started today and if that weren't enough, for me anyway, The International Data Triangle popped on and I have no voice coverage. I flashed back to stock and got the voice back but the data drops in and out. I wondered if there is some sort of outage. Called in and NADA that they are aware of.
Weird.. Might have to send this one back. This will be the second time. PRL and Profile Update fails.
In Minneapolis/St. Paul Btw.
That's my same situation everything exactly its wrks better wen u unroot but rooted sux signal wise I thought I was the only one having this issue I wonder is it just our phones or did da update have sumthn 2 do with it?

Not sure. When I called Sprint, they checked the tower strength, Known issues in the area and found nothing. So they want me to stop into a store and have them look at it. I put the standard recovery back on and locked it back up. Wish me luck.

Maybe you were watching the local action at Jennifer's and something in your pocket activated the PRL by mistake? Wink wink.
what radio are you running? try flashing ke5
Yeah, on ke5. They did manage to fix it at the store by erasing some network stuff and reinstalling the ota latest update with their computer. Then they said blah blah blah. I told them thanks a bunch. We will see.

[Q] ATT Infuse on Rogers, need 4g modem/rom

Hi All,
I have an ATT infuse 4G, just arrived last night.
Which modem do I need to get the 3g/4g working on Roger's?
Hopefully something that I can flash with CWM.
I just finished rooting, unlocking and installing CWM recovery.
I now have a "I997RUXKG3" for a baseband, but it is still not getting any data.
Need also a good rom that will work with this setup.
Thanks
Heeter
Bump.
Could really use some advice.
Thanks all.
Heeter
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
Try as many out as you can and see what works best!
As long as rogers supports the exact same 3g radio bands as ATT then it should pick it up automatically. If they use different ones then no matter what you do it won't connect to anything other then edge
I'm on rogers and have no problems with any of at&t modems. Just try them all and see which works best for you. I'm currently using UVKJ6. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1353209
hope this helps

Hey thanks guys,
I don't have any data (3G, E, H, nothing) So I am gonna try Spider posted.
Will report back in a bit.
Hmmm, you mentioned that all modems should work, maybe there is a setting that I am missing somewhere, 'cause I got no data whatsoever.
BTW, Spidey, Which ROM are you using? And do you have a download link for it?
Thanks
Heeter
Hey I'm using Darky Rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1354321
After flashing make sure everything is running and then flash InfusionGB-CoreA2 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1212485
Then flash this tweak Universal Adrenaline Shot v13.zip from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236779
Before doing any of this try downloading tweakker https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tweakker&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS50d2Vha2tlciJd from market it fixs apn for specific carrier.
Try inputting the Rogers APN look for a search on the forums to find it, it should activate your data.
Thanks for the heads up Spider, Sarius.
Will post back when I check that out.

Hi Guys,
Update:
I flashed that modem that spider provided, and as well I used tweakker.
Now I have a "H+" sign on top,
Is that good?
Heeter
Glad to hear that all is good. enjoy

Isn't it supposed to show 4G or is H+ normal for that modem?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997R using xda premium
I don't know if H+ is good for my area. Don't know if 4G has even made it to my area (Edmonton). I know rogers has been talking about something called LTE in my area.
My Nexus S always says 3G, but it is 3G only, not a 4G device.

Thanks for that explanation, Entropy
Heeter
h+ is the 4g in infuse 4g but its more like fauxG, really its just marketing, the infuse and many other 4g phones work on the 3g network, lte is the true 4th Gen network and the infuse doesn't support it.
the att kernel seems to get faster data because of tcp buffer changes ( if I got that mixed up with something else someone correct me) but the recent custom kernels have the changes and are all built on Rogers sources. the rom shouldn't matter but you need to use the Rogers apn settings. the modems should all work including modems from the sgs4g
weather you see h+ or 4g depends on the rom. it can be changed in the theme. they indicate exactly the same thing.

4th or 5th question I've seen: you've flashed something that munged your SIM card MEID.
Open your dialer, type *2767*3855# and your phone will reset it's SIM card, and reboot. You're done.

Unable to get 4g back after using Phone App.

I selected the (CDMA auto PRL) for 3g only then didn't like it so i wanted to switch back but it would not let me. so now i'm stuck on 3g selected (CDMA auto PRL) every time I try to switch the setting to something else it just reverts back. Did anyone else have this issue? Please is their a fix? I need help to get the 4g back on my phone. (Galaxy S3 Verizon, rooted)
I had to reset the phone and install a different rom to make mine work. Hopefully that helps.

Hope you get your 4G back and try a hard reset to fix it.

The same thing happened on my non-rooted Verizon S3 after using Phone Info app. Verizon tech said my phone was defective. When I went into Best Buy, they started switching my phone to a new S3 and it still did it...found it was the sim card. After I got a new one, it's been working ever since.
I have posted the fix in about 4 other threads...you need to reprovision your device with the dialer code
*2767*3855#
This wipes data so have a nandroid ready.
For the millionth time avoid the beans rom and the jellybomb theme.

I don't think that phone info app has been updated in years. Was never meant for new ultra high end phones. And not to sound rude but those menus were never meant for us to play with.

That menu is how I ****in' ripped off VZW and their tethering app for the longest time with my old X2 before I got pissed off at it's random disconnects and just started using wifi tether for root users.
Ahhh.. the memories. Good times.
idk if this is the same but i used the phone info app on my fascinate and changed it and couldnt get 3g so i went to mobile networks under wireless and networks
in settings and clicked data enabled
I haven't had any problems with the phone info app! Use it daily and it's never gotten stuck on 3g.

Does this Re-provision code work with 4.1.1, I've been reading that it only works with ICS builds? I can't get 4G lte ever since rooting my phone and I've tried every thing but this. I don't want to try it though unless I know for sure that it works with jelly bean.
My Build:
Clean Rom 5.5.1
Leankernel vzw tw jb 1.2.1 (imoseyon)
Baseband I535VRBLK3
AND...... I've flashed
VRBLK3.rpm.zip
VRLK3.modem.zip
The "phone info" app is stuck on CDMA auto (PRL)
APN is set to LTE - verizon internet.

I'm on CleanRom 5.5.1 and I use Phone Info app to switch from 4g to 3g, but to go back to 4g I always have to go into System Settings -> Wireless Network -> Mobile Networks and switch it from there. Same with every JB Touchwiz ROM I've tried.

I got it changed in APN setting to "LTE - verizon internet", the only other option is "EHRPD - verizon internet", I also have global roaming set to "always allows on trips". However ever time I go back to the phone info app it resets to "CDMA auto PRL". Am I missing something?

Id say delete the phone info app or wait until it's updated to be compatible with jellybean. 3g is almost then same as lte anyways at least with my phone I almost always have a strong lte signal. The s4 chip in the gs3 was designed to be a power saver on lte compared to older chips

Ok, so if I delete the app is my phone still stuck in 3g mode somewhere in else in the phone then? I guess what I mean is does deleting app force the phone to run off the APN settings? And if this still doesn't work can I use the re-provision code ( *2767*3855#) that I saw earlier in the thread? Finally is there a way to simply check if my SIM card is screwed?
