Trying to fix LTE

Hey guys, I have my HOX running AOKP JB 1.3 (found here) and have noticed that my LTE doesn't work. I only have an HSPA mobile connection.
Now in the FAQ's it says this:
**Q: No LTE?**
**A: Flash to a 4.0.3 based ROM, then flash AOKP**
Unfortunately, I'm such a noob I don't know exactly what that means. At first I assumed Android, but now I'm thinking it's the HTC Sense??
Digital fingers in the right direction greatly appreciated.

You assumed correctly just flash a 4.0.3 Rom, then flash cm. (After wiping of course)

CleanROm 4.0 is 4.0.3 base

4.0.3 refers to the "base" version of android that a given ROM is built from.
Try flashing CleanRom 4.0 - it is based on android 4.0.3 You can find it here: http://www.scottsroms.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=161

Here is what I did (I'm on att)...it worked for me, I can't guarantee it will work for you and I am not responsible if you end up with a brick
1) Hop on over here and download cleanrom 4.0 standard edition (towards the bottom )
http://www.scottsroms.com/downloads.php?do=cat&id=34
2) Reboot your phone to recovery, factory reset, wipe cache, dalvich cache
3) Install the cleanrom 4.0 you downloaded above
4) Restart your phone and make sure you have lte (no need to set up accounts or anything)
5) Boot to recovery, factory reset, wipe cache, dalvich cache
6) Install aokp jb 1.3
7-28) Enjoy
You might be able to start with step 0.5 and backup your current rom/settings and restore to that backup in step 6 instead of reinstalling jb 1.3 as the above method will reset your phone and remove your current setup.
This method did not require me to change apns or dial *#*#4636#*#* or anything.
Good luck!

Thanks guys. I'm downloading CleanROM as we speak. so I've got my fingers crossed. Will update upon completion.

hmm, well saw the 4G symbol on my status bar with CleanROM, but not the LTE symbol so maybe my specific area (Macon, GA) doesn't have LTE at the moment and just that super duper HSPA 4G thing, lol. oh well. it was fun! thanks anyways for the help guys! yall are awesome!

Thought I'd retry an old thread. I had AOKP like 6 weeks ago and LTE worked great. Recently I have been using CR4.5Dev, CR4.5, or CM10. All of them I have had no problems with LTE.
Went to flash AOKP today and had no LTE. Remembered I had to come from a 4.0.3 ROM, so I flashed CleanRom 4.0 and booted up to check my LTE. Worked great. Went back and flashed AOKP. No LTE. I tried deleted the APN and reinserting it with no luck.
Going to try to re-reflash CR, and then flash AOKP for the 3rd time and hope for the best.
I can't live without LTE in San Diego. HSPA+ doesn't work on my drive home for streaming because it's way over used.

[Q] No data connection with any Jellybean ROMs

Hi,
I recently decided to flash a jeallybean ROM since most of them are getting really great and we don't have any word on the official update. Unfortunatly, I'm now unable to get a data connection on my HOX. It's the rogers version which I unlocked and I'm now using on the Bell network. Before flashing, LTE worked fine with the stock sense ROM, but now I don't have any data at all.
ROMs I've tried :
AOKP, MIUI and CM10.
I've tried to : set the data connection to GSM only, nothing, to LTE only, nothing, to WCDMA only, nothing. I've tried all the APNs I've found (pda.bell.ca, pda2.bell.ca, inet.bell.ca). On AOKP it sometimes said "Error while searching for network". WiFi, texts and calls work fine.
If anyone could help me, it would be really appreaciated. Otherwise I'll just revert to Rogers ROM. Thanks alot!

I cant offer any help, but I'm having a similar issue recently. I was on a nightly build of CM10 (from 10/06/12 I believe). I upgraded to a newer build (from 10/10) and I get no data over cell. I flashed it back and things were fine.

Before flashing jelly bean roms you need to flash a sense rom then do full wipe and install cm10 or aokp..

I have the exact same problem with my SGS using the X-bean 3.0 rom.
What's the best solution? Is it because I used to Cwm?

Every device has its own nuances, as do various ROMs. So I'd advise posting this in the forum specific to your device.

Still no data connection.
I am having the same issue with my AT&T One X phone.
The phone was running 2.20 before it was unlocked/rooted. Installed TWRP, was a noob and forgot to save a backup, fastbooted the boot.img, flashed AOKP and CM10 successfully. With both of these ROMs, I could not get internet to work via cellular connection. I have tried everything with the APNs (even had AT&T help me setup APN settings) and still no mobile data connection. I can still receive/send SMS/calls, use bluetooth and wifi, just no mobile internet.
I'm not entirely sure what to do next. I attempted to go back and flash the UrDroid 4.1 Stock Sense ROM, but after fastbooting it's boot.img and attempting to flash with TWRP, I got a signature verification failure. Got scared and restored back to AOKP (I remember to make a backup this time.)
Thoughts? Sorry for being a noob.

Are you in an LTE area?

I am in a "4G" area (HSPA+) but I am also a hour drive away from LTE. I have tried APNs for both, but AT&T recommended I stick to the LTE APN. AT&T had me go to Settings->More->Mobile Networks->Network Operators and the phone just sat there searching without finding anything. I just did that above operation again and it found AT&T and I selected it. It spins on "Registering on AT&T..." for a few minutes and eventually errors out "Cannot register on this network at this time."

Have you tried switching off LTE by selecting "GSM/WCDMA Auto" in Settings?
I've had data problems on certain ROMs, where turning off LTE got the HSPA+ connection working.
In that case, it was probably a base of build.prop not playing well with AT&T's network. Although I would think the ROMs you mentioned would have these issues worked out at this point (and for some time now).

When I switch to "GSM/WCDMA Auto", it immediately switches itself back to the LTE setting. This is concerning.

[Q] Radios / Jelly Bean question

I have been using an ICS ROM (PrimoS v4.1) on my Desire S for some time with no problems, but recently have tried flashing a number of JB ROMs (e.g Andromadus, CM10 and JellyTime). I have found that when using any of these JB ROM's, I am unable to get a data connection and the APN list is blank. Despite many attempts to add APNs manually or by use of APN backup apps, I have failed to add an APN to the list.
Do I need to update the radio to solve this problem? I never did this when going from original HTC Gingerbread to the ICS ROM.
Please excuse the ignorance on this subject. I've read somewhere that there is a danger of bricking the phone when flashing radios, hence my reluctance to try without good reason!
I live in the UK and use Virgin Mobile.
Current radio is: 20.281.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M
All help appreciated - I've had a tantalising glimpse of the wonders of Jelly Bean and I'm desperate to get my data connection working!
TIA

I can't say whether changing radios will fix your problem. I use Radio 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 on CM10 and have no problems.

Thanks for the reply BillGoss.
I took the plunge and updated my Radio to 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 with no problems. My phone continues to work fine with the PrimoS (ICS) ROM, but when I flashed JellyTime, still no APN's and I was unable to create one, hence I can't connect to the 3G network. D'oh!

Correct me if I'm wrong but with ICS you don't have the probelm and with JB you have the problem
that you have no and can not set the APN values, Q, dit you have a clean ROM installed.
I had this problem once when I tested a ICS version with sence 4. Later when I installed a CM10 version
I had no APN so I did a factory reset an de problem was gone. To be sure I wiped al the data on my device
and restored a earlyer nandroid backup. Later I tested a lote of ROMS but so far I don't have the APN issue yet.

Yes HypnoCondor, I always do a full wipe before flashing the ROM. I've now done a ot of Googling and trawling XDA threads and have found that the issue seems to be confined to CyanogenMod-based ROMS, not specifically CM10 and covering a lot of different phones. I'm not techie enough to fully understand, but it seems that CM is not registering the SIM card properly and hence the APN list is always blank and can't be edited/saved manually.
What's particualrly confusing is that I recently flashed the CM10-based CyanogenMod 10 Beta Builds [4.1.2][ANDROMADUS 3.x][Frontcam] ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1776256) and much to my surprise it worked! My APN list was populated and all was fine. Unfortunately , after rebooting the phone, the APN's were gone and I've been unable to get them back, despite trying every trick in the book gleaned from XDA users with similar problems.
This is very frustrating, because I really love this ROM
Looks like I'll end up going back to the PrimoS (non-CM, ICS) ROM so that I can get my data connection back when I'm away from WiFi. That's a real bummer, but I'm damned if I've been able to find a fix for this issue.

Just for future reference: being unable to set APN has nothing to do with radio and has everything to do with the ROM you're using. But you've already found that out yourself.

Thanks Jack_R1. My final plan is to try replacing the SIM card - should receive it in a couple of days.

Phosbrom I'm on Virgin and the JellyBean roms you mentioned work great on our service. I'm sure you'll enjoy using them when your new sim arrives :good:

Horrible network issue on AOKP/CM roms?

My one X on sense rom is great with network, wifi connect instantly, no problems.
However when I flash AOKP roms (roms that i prefer, so much faster) it has network problems.
When i'm at home, it seem fine. but during travel it can't keep up tracking network. I would lose data signal and sometime cell signals as well.
I thought it was my phone, I went thru 3 One x already and all the same
I flashed with twrp btw.
is there like something I'm missing? flashing certain radios or wifi fix?

i flash EVITA_3.18_for CM10.zip which works well

sorry im new, where can i find it, and i flash that before or after my rom selection

[Radio][RIL]HOXL Radios/RILs including CM10.x based ROMs (Flashable zips)

really sorry one more time. lol. I'm an idiot, and I just saw ur signature video haha
i'm flashing liquid jelly bean, it's 4.2.2 based, so which radio should I flash?

[Q] Cannot acquire data connections

I'm having an odd issue. I've been running the latest Hyperdrive ROM release on my S3 for about a year now, but I can't stand Touchwiz ROM's so I've tried flashing AOSP ROM's such as CM, AOKP, even Beanstalk. I love all of these ROMs for tons of reasons but I keep running into the same problem, everything works great but I can't receive mobile data. My mobile network state is Disconnected and I have no idea how to fix that. I can text, call, and connect to wifi fine, but no mobile data. I've backed up my EFS but I'm not sure that's connected to the same thing. I have the network set to "CDMA/LTE" (would be more specific but each ROM has it different), but for whatever reason the APN settings are inaccessible. The menu option is clearly there but I cannot open it to ensure I'm using the LTE APN. I decided to give this another go yesterday, and still no dice. However upon restoring my CWM backup of Hyperdrive, I have now lost 4G and am stuck on 3G. My network type now shows eHRPD and while I can access my APN's (I was always able to on Touchwiz ROMs) I can tap on the Verizon LTE APN, but it seems to make absolutely no change to the actual APN. In fact when I reboot it it defaults back to eHRPD all over again.
So, 1. have I somehow screwed myself over? and 2. what am I missing with AOSP based ROMs?
Thanks for any and all help.

I would try flashing a stock ROM such as the one on ScottsROMs.com
The 4.3 stock rooted, OTA disabled, UNlocled boot loader and no Knox.
See if you can get data with that. Firmware for the radio may have gotten messed up, and this would re-write that data (long shot, but worth a try). Another option would be to re-flash the radio maybe.
And now that I think of it, which radio are you on? MF1, ML1, NE1? Because I think I read somewhere that certain ROMs require a certain radio newer than _____ (don't remember which radio).

Thanks for the help. I flashed a 4.3 ROM as you suggested, and no difference. I then chased some threads around and decided to just factory reset it as if I was going to return it. Still nothing, I get 3G, not LTE. I was using MB1 before I flashed an AOSP ROM, at which point I flashed the MF1 firmware and then the ML1 modem. That did nothing to fix my issue. I'm not quite sure what else I can do at this point.

Hmm... ML1 should be new enough.
That's a bizarre issue.
For me, I mainly get 3G. It seems as if either Verizon pulled some LTE towers near me, or my data antenna doesn't have very good contact. Maybe you're having the same issue.
Do you EVER get 4G? Or literally never?
