LTE won't stick in phone info (no 4G)

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

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.

I will try not to do that then when I get my s3.
Hope you get your 4G back and try a hard reset to fix it.

I stopped using that app due to it happening twice. The last time it happened I had to unroot and reprogram the phone

I had this issue and flashed a stock rooted Rom then used airplane mode and it came back. I highly advise against using that app

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.
WHAT DO I NEED TO DOO????!!! PLEASE HELP XDA GENIUSES!!!!

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.

Same... once I've changed to 3g you need to flip it back to global as kOadmunk described

It's a new setting in JB and this is the only way to fix it.

There are times it won't switch for me till I go into the more options to mobile network and switch to late or global

still not working
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?

No 4g anymore?

I updated to the VLRHE modem the other day and realized that my connection is words than usual and I can't get on 4g in areas I usually have it. Anyone have ideas?

Might be a noob reply but, have you download "Phone Info" from play store and checked your preferred network type? Get into "Phone Info" click "Device Information" and be sure that your preferred network type is "LTE/CDMA/EvDO"

Try reprovisioning your sim card, dial *2767*3855# it will wipe your internal SD card so back up anything you want before hand.

I had the same problem. I just rebooted and 4g was back

I had a similar issue I had to Odin back to stock for a fresh start

Idk if verizons having issues or not, but the other day my phone stopped using 4g all together too. Phone info says its set right, and everything seems fine. Verizon is sending me a new simcard.

No 4g or 3g Data?

First of all, I'm stock and running faux kernel. I started experiencing this problem yesterday when I had no data and I was outside (Where I usually get 4g speeds). Now I either get 1x data speeds or none. Is there any solution for this problem like hard reseting or something

That sounds like either a Verizon problem, or sometimes your phone wants to revert to an evdo state if it can't get a 3g or 4g signal.
Download the phone info app, and open it and click device information, make sure it says lte/cdma/evdo and not evdo only.
Sometimes the setting won't stick, so in that case I would either flash a new rom or go back to stock with Odin, ota update, and reroot again.
If it says lte/cdma/evdo, then I think it has something to do with verizons end.

Actually I tried something else... I took my sim card out of my s3 and put it into a friends verizon s3 and the data didn't work on his phone but once I put his sim card onto my s3, I had 4g and many speeds I thought never existed. So what does that mean?

Pulling your SIM helped your phone to relock onto Verizon towers. It just essentially resetted the prl, glad you got it working fairly easily.

Not exactly, because my s3 for some reason got 4g and 3g when I inserted my friends SIM card onto mine but on his s3, his data was acting like mine because he had my SIM in his s3... so that draws me in one conclusion, my SIM is damaged

[Q] 4g issue

Hi I've been having this issue ever since I rooted my phone in mid December I've only been receiving 3g not LTE yesterday I updated my nightly and I had 4g but then I updated my roaming using *228 and my LTE stopped working. Can anyone help with this issue or has seen this issue before?

I have gotten a new 4g sim all the options on the settings look correct
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

People reported that if you do *228 you kill your 4G and you need a new SIM card.

Yep you need a new SIM

Thank you guys I just didn't know because this sim card is new and updating the nightly last night didn't work I had it for a few hours but I wasn't getting very good service so I *228 and right after I did that it stopped working

Go into a vzw corporate store and get a new sim card its free. They made me activate in store they didn't look at my fone they jst check that it works.
