First off, let me say that I love this ROM. it is my first time flashing a phone and it has been a great experience. I haven't had a problem until today. Probably should not have done this, but I did my weekly *228 to update roaming capabilities, and ever since, I have been unable to get a 4G signal. I'm guessing I messed up my APNs or something?
Anyway I re flashed the ROM, and for a second it popped up, but no luck; back to 3g.
What can I do to fix without losing all my apps, settings, etc as it took me 2 days to get everything to normal after the first flash.
Samsung s3 Verizon I535
Thanks!
*228 can fry a sim card on a 4G phone. There is never a reason to do it. Go to verizon and get a new sim card. Do not tell them your rooted (you do not need to return to stock), just tell them you already spoke to a tech on the phone and this is what he said to do. That will keep questions and them playing with your device to a minimum.
Start there and report back private!

Lol will do but why the hell do they tell you to do that if it will fry the card? I'll go by there tonight.
You should have gotten a message telling you not to continue. Nevertheless try that first.

Oh yeah I've already checked all that. I may be new to android custom ROMS but I'm not your average idiot
And that thing never said not to continue or warned me at all :-\
Noy sure how I'm going to get a sim card from them without them seeing my phone is rooted but ill be as slick as I can. Sure it couldn't be anything else? Is there an APN settings package I can flash to the phone?
I did it without any issues twice. Walk in like you own the place and tell them what you need. They will do it. Not the end of the world either if he notices root, they still need to give you a new card, but they won't even check. You'll be fine

Popped the SIM card out of my phone, walked in close to closing time, told them to give me another one.
Bing bang boom, and now I have 4g again.
On another note, they were all like "yeah you shouldn't do the *228 on a 4g phone, and the other two people that WORKED there didn't even know that. I told them they might want to be a bit more informative about something like that.
Anyways, I think I have found me a nice little forum I always donate to forums that I like, so point me in the right direction. I would also like to donate a little something to the synergy boys/girls.
I'm sure there is a link to donate on the Synergy page...
Glad that worked out for you, you wouldn't have liked the next option to fix it...............!
Good info. Didn't know I shouldn't do *228. Glad I know now. Thanks.

OK so I need some help . . . . . after flashing a new ROM/kernel, I noticed that my network service was insanely poor. I thought it had to do with the new ROM but now after I have tried every which way of flashing and reflashing, I still have the issue. I used Speedtest to see what kind of DL speeds I was getting and I am usually in double digit kbps, 114kbps is my top. My wifes Acclaim regularly gets 600+ to the same server. Does anyone have any suggestions of what I may have screwed up or how I can go about fixing it? Everything works fine in WiFi btw.
Thanks in advance.
Fixed: Somehow I managed to get knocked off my 3G service. Called USCC tech support and they were able to turn it back on for me.

Try updating your prl. Dial *228 when at home and not roaming. Follow the prompts and wait for it to update. Should help and really can't hurt.

I called 911 and it didn't work. The 911 operator didn't have any ideas either.

Try going back to 2.1 and see how the data is. I somehow got a new prl when I flashed aosp and my girlfriends phone is on an earlier version. We both did the *228 and hers stays at 15108 mine stays at 15110. There is supposed to be a way to manually update our roll back prl. Idk wish I did

I did flash back to 2.1 and the data issues remain. The PRL on my phone and my wife's Acclaim are both 15110, but she gets 3G service and I don't. It also takes over a minute for my 1x service to load after turning off wifi. Also, If I force EVDO, I will get a "3G" banner at the top of the screen, but data does not work and the banner eventually goes away.
Additionally, is it normal to get a Verizon voice when you *228 while roaming? Because that is what I got when I was roaming yesterday. I have to believe that flashing Fascinate software has something to with it.
You could check the efs clear box in odin. I know it has something to do with service. I did that once in my vibrant by mistake. Are you dialing 911 in your home area? It needs to be in a uscc home area same with *228. The efs clear might break your phone worse so.......

Yes, which is why I said do it while NOT roaming. If you completed the *228 while roaming on Verizon you basically connected your phone to their network not USCC's.

I did the *228 at home while not roaming. When I got the Verizon thing while roaming I just hung up I never went through any kind of programming. This was well after things went awry anyways.
I believe this all started a few days ago when I tried flashing the ComaVolt kernel. I got a boot loop and had to do a battery pull. I then flashed dfgas's superclean port and I thought everything was working fine until I got out of wifi the next day and noticed my network service was aweful.

I do have a belief plan but I bought the phone on Ebay a few months back. I was just out for a bit and the banner at the top would go into "3G" but while it was like that I had no network connection. Somehow I pooched my 3G radio I guess. Maybe I'll call tech support and see if they can help. Everyone I have ever talked to over there has been really good so maybe it's worth a try.
on verizons version of the sgs3, phone connects to 3g but no 4g. recently got locked out by verizon and had to reflash the stock rom via odin, since then I have re-rooted, unlocked the bootloader, and flashed CM10 nightly. while the galaxy was out of commission i reactivated by old (DINC2, 3g) phone, so i'm not sure if that had something to do with it. first noticed 4g wasn't working after flashing CM10. tried restoring to the stock rom, factory reset, pulling sim card and even suspending/reactivating service via verizonwireless.com thinking it would reset the sim card... running out of ideas on how to get the 4g to come back! please help!! any ideas or pointers are very much appreciated!

really wish i could figure out why this keeps happening! I don't remember even installing anything that might have changed any settings... since i lost 4g again, i tried all the other suggestions jaeger gave me, none helped. i also updated to the newest CM10 nightly.

time to take it to verizon? kinda lost in terms of what else to try. any other ideas?
so i also noticed, after going back to jaegers post, that in the mobile network settings, it keeps defaulting to EHRPD. switching it to LTE - Verizon internet doesn't change anything, but after rebooting it always reverts to EHRPD - verizon internet. don't know if this is related or not.

I've noticed that Juice Defender will cause this if you allow it to control 2G/3G/4G - in my case disabling that control in Juice Defender and then resetting things in Phone Info and the APNs fixed it.

yeah, i had considered that before. i do use juice defender, but since changing roms and restoring to stock hasn't fixed it i think it's safe to assume that isn't the problem.
i took the phone to a verizon store today, and apparently according to the guy that helped me, this is a known issue. he said it should be fixed with the next software update. does this even make sense since i was having the same trouble with official AND custom roms? i mean, the custom roms don't use the same software, right? regardless, i asked him to send me a new phone anyway and it should be here on monday.
he warned me that it might be a used/refurbished phone, but that i could check on this by checking the meid. anybody know how exactly i would go about doing that without having to drive to the store?
thanks!

Hi guys,
Seems like I'm getting 4G data drops off T-Mobile. It connects for like, 7 seconds, then drops, then connects again. I've tried both radios and ROM's available (stock) and the same problem exists.
I'm going to return the phone as-is to the customer with the issue partly unresolved, mainly because it does connect voice and MMS, just the data has issues.
Any ideas before I give him the phone back?

You can try flashing back to stock using section 5 in this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762709. After that if your phone still won't connect you can try putting in this dialer code:*2767*3855#
This will of course totally wipe your phone and everything on it, but should restore service.

Isn't that only if the IMEI is removed? I still have hat and have service... I just don't want to try all that if it's unnecessary
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Those directions won't work if your IMEI was lost. There is a different thread for that in the development section. The directions I gave should restore your service. You could try different fixes like flashing a different modem in recovery, but it sounds like it's not a modem issue since you have data. You could try doing a factory reset, clearing cache and dalvik and reflashing the ROM in recovery first. If you have any nandroid backups where you had service you could try restoring to a backup.
Alright, I looked over the instructions and decided to just try re flashing modem... It worked! Thanks for the jump start in the thought process... It was tough without a phone on vacation

Could this be a bad sim?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Could be a bad sim. It won't be difficult to reroot at all. That guide I linked to has instructions. I would go ahead and try flashing back to complete stock using section 5 and using the dialer code I gave above if it isn't fixed right away when you flash. If that doesn't fix it, then it probably is a bad sim.
Odined back to stock and made 2 phone calls... Working on rerooting, damn thing tried to update! I went back to ICS for ease of reroot. Thanks for the help!!
Wow! And we're back to not working this morning... did the re provisioning, still not working! Call Verizon, they try to repeat the troubleshooting... Tell me it can't be a bad sim card and that maybe it's the network... I'M IN CHICAGO! I think there'd be more complaints.... Anyways, do you think I could go to a store and get them to trade me a SIM card?? Oddly enough, my lockscreen says "roaming" even after all this provisioning...
People have gotten newer sim cards for much more trivial problems than yours, you should be able to get one. I wouldn't really know much else to do besides just getting a replacement phone.
Well, just an update... Got a new sim card, still didn't work. They're sending me a replacement phone

Well that should finally fix it. These phones seem to have a mind of their own with each one having its own little quirks. I guess it must be the different hardware types or manufacturers. Who knows. Hope the next one serves you better.
So I updated my prl and profile yesterday, and since then I have no lte connection. So far I completely wiped and reinstalled my rom, tried to reactivate service, cleared my apns and installed Sprints apn file... I'm at a loss as to what to do, any advice?
I'm in the same boat.. Did you ever find a fix?
I haven't, tried everything I know to try... I'm wondering if it's an issue with sprint...
Well the girlfriend hasn't complained about her N5 yet. I've tried a new modem , APN, field test and *#*#4636#*#*
Lost LTE on Sprint yesterday too after just rebooting my phone. I've done everything thing I can think of to get it back and nothing. Just get a empty triangle until it gives up and goes to 3G. Stopped at Sprint today to see if they had a SIM card, so I could see if my SIM card was corrupted before buying a new phone. Of course, they didn't because Sprint stores are the most useless places on Earth. Was thinking about how I wanted to go about buying a new phone, but now this seems like it might not be an isolated incident.
For those that are wondering, so far I have:
- updated prl/profile
- turned radio off and on
- reflashed the radio
- factory reset fresh install
- factory reset fresh install and flash the old sprint fix .zip (figured I'd try it for the hell of it)
- Went to a Sprint store to see if they had a different SIM to try (they didn't)
Really need to figure out if this is a hardware issue, SIM issue, or something stupid that Sprint did. I was leaning towards hardware, but if a few people from Sprint all had this happen to them on the same day...

Mine is also back
So that was weird... LTE dropout specific to the Nexus 5 on Sprint. At least it came back before I went out and bought a new phone.

It may be all triband devices, no way to confirm...
I can't seem to make any phone calls, but I have data. Damn this is weird

Well that's weird for me then. I can get on here from my phone yet I can't call my voicemail.. They must be upgrading something
Any of you guys think data speeds picked up a bit since this happened? Could just be a fluke, but I'm getting faster download speeds ATM.

Mine seems to be faster too, especially inside
