Cant Make Calls- ICS

Hey guys,
Im currently using a i727r on ICS and i seem to have a really weird problem. I seem to be able to call when I flash a rom, but then out of the blue, it just stops working and i cannot make any calls. I can still send texts and stuff but just no calling. I have tried both UCLD and UCLC modems and roms but I still get the same problem. However, this problem doesnt happen on GB with the UCLA modem.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem, and if so did you solve it? Thanks for the feedback

goin hard on the newbies today aintcha?

Woops!
Well i meant for this to be mostly stating a problem i realized with ICS rather then a question thats why I thought I would post here.

Rogers
I see you're on Rogers, like me.
Turns out the modem settings default to ATT so the GSM band is limited to ATT.
You have to go *#2263# in the phone dialer
- Select GSM Band Preference
- Select GSM ALL
- hit the left haptic button and select END
I hope this helps.
EDIT: Doh! I just realized this turns off data. Must be something wrong with the LTE APN setting.

Ya I just realized that too. Thanks for the help anyways, guess im sticking to GB

OK so I was able to narrow the problem down.
So, I flashed ICS, calls worked.
Changed APNs still worked no LTE though.
Finally, did the *#2263# and set the LTE band as prefered. Then I rebooted, and I got LTE but lost calling.
So its definitly the band or the apn thats causing this problem. So now its just choose between LTE or calling which sucks.
Hope that helps.
Going to try the UCLD2 roms now, ill report back in a few

uhh bud, the problem could be u only half did this right. After u enable all lte bands u have to menu > exit, dial back in using *#2263#* and then select automatic and then reboot.
There is no such thing as voice over LTE, its data only. When in call ur phone automatically switches to 4g, but u have auto turned off right now

Oh alright, well Im not gunna try that right now as i got it to work on UCLD2 modem and dont want to mess it up.
But ya thanks for the help everyone

I solved it by adding these 3 APNs. You also need to go back into *#2263# and select LTE, let it establish connection, then go back and change it to Automatic. Note that LTE isn't everywhere so just because you don't get LTE doesn't mean it doesn't work.

[Q] lg g2x on straight talk

Let the yelling begin. Just got my G2x from ebay
Used the Nokia E71 sim that I already own

any ideas.

so if everything works, whats the problem?

the problem is no data . no internet

That would be a sim issue. You may need an unlock code to have access. Other wise check your vpns
Sent from the last drop of EaglesBlood: 4.0.4 G2x

Well alright, I just read phone works text work and so on... try putting in the apn's in??? I just googled this try looking more if it doesn't work for you. Other than that maybe SIM???
http://www.howardforums.com/showthr...w-the-proper-APN-settings-for-Android-Devices

unlock code
I think the phone is unlocked. That is they way it was sold . Says t-mobile on it but when calling or txting displays att ( that is the nokia e71 sim ), and the the att.mvno that I entered .
How do I check if it is unlocked?

If its unlocked it should all work. http://www.taniwha.org.uk/gprs.html Try looking through here. US is almost all the way at the bottom. Not sure exactly what your using. Not sure if you need the sim carrier or the baseband carrier.
Edit: oh, and if you have access to the phone when you put your sim card in, you said your making calls and sending texts. Yeah, your phones unlocked. The internet thing though is a little weird.

straight talk g2x
It could be the way straighttalk connects to internet. The sim from E71 nokia works with I phones and straighttalk can't find any info why it wouldn't work with android. Thanks for your input.

Lg G2x on straighttalk setup that works
Here are the steps I used to get MMS working on Moto Backflip with Android 2.1
First download Apn Backup and Restore app from app store, and delete all existing APNs. Then manually enter APNs. In android you must have 2 apns setup for mms to work (at least in my case).
Here are my settings:
Name
HOME
APN
att.mvno
Leave everything else alone EXCEPT the bottom selection that says:
APN type (here you must enter the following)
default,supl
Then save, next choose to add another APN
make it look like this:
Name
MMS
APN
att.mvno
skip down to
MMSC
http://mmsc.cingular.com
MMS proxy
proxy.mvno.tracfone.com
MMS port
80
skip to:
APN type (enter the following)
mms
THEN SAVE
You will see that only one APN has the option to be chosen, that is ok, Just choose the one that is able to be chosen.
Now go back to Homescreen and then reboot your phone.
This works for me, hope it can help you. I tried a hundred different ways and this was it. Capitalization is important, and the APN type was the trick.
GOOD LUCK and let me know if it worked for you.

it works 2g where I am now but I am in

Did you get the data to work? I've been considering going to ST. I've had them before, and for a prepaid company, had really good experience with the service in my area. The same can't be said for Tmo

Lg G2x on straighttalk setup that works
yes it works. The configuration I used is posted a few days ago. The speed for connection shows 2g. Other than that it works well. I am looking for the code to get 3g now. If you read the code above you will see the words tracfone. That is a 2g network ( I think ). I think I have to change that.

Well it's all the same company. Not sure how they handle that. I wonder if it might have something to do with using the SIM you used, (which would make ST right when they said you need a new one.) In any case, I'll just be buying a SIM from them to use on my phone, so maybe it'll work out fine. Unfortunately, I'm still under contract at the moment, so it may be a little while longer.

Straight Talk works well on the default Tmobile ROM, but I just upgraded to Eagles Blood and the T-Mobile SIM settings do not work at all on Straight Talk (for MMS+Internet). Does anyone know of a fix?
These are my settings:

[Q] How to enable LTE by updating PRL settings, using a Rogers LTE s2 on Fido LTE?

I just purchased a used Galaxy S2 SGH-I727R skyrocket that was originally purchased from Rogers in Canada a year ago by the original owner. The phone was completely stock with stock Rogers firmware, most up to date version 4.0.4. The phone box shows LTE DUAL BAND 700MHz/AWS as the capable signal bands on this phone. I'm not sure if any of these are blocked on the Rogers custom firmware.
I unlocked the phone and tried to use it on Fido LTE network, which works on the same network as Rogers as it is part of the same parent company now. However, my phone will not pick up the LTE signal, no matter what. The SIM is brand new from Fido on their new LTE network that I got just 2 weeks ago. The SIM is properly provisioned for LTE as after installing sim in the phone, the apn settings window automatically populates with FIDO LTE settings (ltemobile.apn and ltedata.apn for tethering). I also have a full LTE and 4g data plan.
As LTE would not connect, I entered fido's regular 4g/3g settings as a separate apn and the phone connected right away to the 4G network (with very good speeds, DL up to 11MBps and uploads up to 2-3 MBps). I'm in the downtown Mississauga area right beside toronto and this area is fully covered with LTE. I tried using the 'data roaming' option to see if there was any difference, I tried to manually select fido in the 'network operators' section etc but playing around with these options generated zero success.
I looked up forums on Fido where even though this phone is not in their line up of supported devices, their helpdesk suggested that any Canadian LTE phone with proper fido lte data plan and proper lte sim should work on LTE. I even drove around in areas near my house where I've seen a friend use Fido's LTE signal on his Fido htc one device, but no success on my phone.
***Some people have activated proper LTE signal on their Google Nexus 4 American phones for use in Canada by dialing *#*#4636#*#* and then going into the following menu's 'phone information' section to select LTE or a different PRL option with LTE. I tried to do the same thing but when I enter this hidden menu's 'phone information' section, my screen blanks out, phone becomes unresponsive and after a minute or 2 I get a message that some android system file was closed etc. I tried de-activating the data connection and tried to enter the same menu option but same end result. I thought maybe rooting the phone will give me access to this menu but even after successful root, my phone blanks out when entering that 'phone information' menu.
Can anyone suggest something or help me figure this out please. I have a feeling the PRL or LTE option needs to be selected manually here and I need to access that menu. Since FIDO LTE network on Rogers existing LTE network was activated a year later, there may be some updates needed in this area (as the phone was originally set up for Rogers LTE from a year ago).
OR, should I just call FIDO support, and assuming they help me with a non-fido phone, try to get this sorted out with their techs?
Thanks

weird when you say the box says "aws", rogers doesnt support aws as far as i know, wind uses aws, i cant find my box to check
did you perferm a factory reset, which modem are you on
EDIT: phone does support aws, but cant see why it would state it on the box if its from rogers

Because the LTE networks are running on AWS and in some cases 2600 MHz frequencies by the big providers in Canada. Even thourgh only Wind/mobilicity use the new AWS for their regular 3G/4G networks, the LTE with Rogers/Bell/Telus is on AWS while their regular non-lte signals are still on their standard gsm bands.

k, but did you check which modem you are on
did you perform a reset.
u stated you entered this, *#*#4636#*#* you should of not received errors(but i tested on jb)
try this for band preference *#2263#
try a working rogers lte sim card and see what happens
are the fido apns the same as rogers
try the rogers apns, used to work for the 3g when i was on fido but that was b4 they offered lte
last resort but maybe your best option, flash stock w/odin, howto in my sig

Thanks again for your help. I realized later on that I got the non-LTE sim card from Fido, so I went back yesterday and got an LTE sim card and had it activated. However, I can never get LTE even though a person sitting beside me on her Rogers S3 with the exact same apn (as I realized rogers and Fido have the exact apn's for LTE network, ltemobile.apn) is getting LTE. I know Fido is the value brand, so they get secondary priority on LTE, which is ok but I realized the problem below:
WHEN I had the non-LTE sim and even with the LTE sim now, one option has never worked. In the mobile network screen, I'm supposed to have just the Ltemobile.apn (Fido and Rogers LTE) radion button selected and Ltedata.apn (for tether) as the default options. These are also built into the rogers stock rom and this phone is originally a rogers a phone. My friend's S3 has the same 2 apn's listed while she's connected to rogers LTE (her's is micro sim, I couldn't try it on mine). With these options, I CAN'T connect to ANY data network at all. I can only do calls, no data. I tried doing batter reset, restarts, change the LTE/HSPA and HSPA etc settings, no luck. The ONLY time I get data is when I manually enter the non-LTE apn settings as a separate apn (Fido-core-appl1.apn) and it connects to 4G. The speeds were good earlier but since changing to the LTE sim, the same 4G keeps disconnecting or it gives much much lower speeds.
As per your suggestion, I followed your thread to re-install the stock rogers ICS rom with odin. Even after that, no change at all. I tried using the *#2263# option to change LTE band to 7 or auto, but no luck as this phone's hardware is only for 700 MHZ or AWS, of which rogers uses the 2100 on pretty much all their devices. At this point, I don't know what to do. I've followed everything from Fido site with LTE phone, LTE apn, LTE sim and LTE data plan, but the phone doesn't even recognize the ltemobile.apn unless I enter the regular Fido apn.
Should I change the radio/modem on this phone to something else or try the JB roms? Do you think that may make a difference, or is this something else, where LTE apn is not even recognized for data. Someone please help, my first phone upgrade after 2.5 yrs has been a complete buzz kill lol.

theres is a method when using *#2263# in picking the lte settings, ill search for the posts as i cant remember the exact details
if you lived or work near me i could test it out for you, bolton or toronto near yorkdale, since its a second hand phone you cant rule out hw failure, but you would need to test it out with a rogers lte sim card.
did you try manually searching for available networks from mobile settings
edit:k i found it, its old and uses the rogers older apn, try with that one or whatever fido phones uses now which i think would be the "ltemobile" apn, if already set then just goto the "power off" phone part

Thanks Vincom. If there is a HW problem, that would really suck but it's hard to see that would be the case if everything else is working fine, inlcluding 4G. And it would be great to know how that band selection process works, as I don't wont to select the wrong option and be stuck with a non-working radio.
I'll give Fido tech support a call and see if they can figure this out, but it's unlikely unless there is something wrong with my plan (LTE plan not activated, unlikely).
Let's say even if I were to have to check the phone (driving to Yorkdale area is no big deal), what would you test on this anyway?
Thanks

Actually let me try out the options you later added in your post above

Thank you, it worked!

Thank you x 1,000,000 Sir, I owe you big time. I've spent last 3 days non-stop on this phone while my wife has been complaining I haven't left my phone since I got it. Now I can go home today and spend more time with her lol.
Here's how it worked: I just copied the ltemobile.apn default settings into a new apn, which I saved with a different name (so that I could keep the original default settings saved separately). As soon as I saved the new apn settings (did not enter anything in the 'apn type' field) and wala, LTE came on. For some reason, even with the same settings exact default settings, it wasn't recognizing the saved apn but the newly created one was picked up right away. Tried the speed test in square one area at work, 21Mbps down, 12Mbps up, wow (coming from my old 3G phone, this is amazing).
I didn't even have to go through the rest of the process with band selection etc., as this is a Rogers phone on their network, so those settings should'nt be changed anyway.
Thanks again. I think I saw some posts on fido forums with other people complaining about stuck with 4G on non-fido phones. I'll update those forums as well.
Happy new year to all

I just make a new son ltemobile.apn and it sticks even on reboots

I could not attach my screenshot but you can see the screenshot from this link
I wanna try turning off LTE and keep the connection on 3G only, but can't find the option to do that either

Anyone else having this problem? Any insight on this issue would be nice as I love this ROM!

Hey! I just un-soft-bricked my phone only to run into this problem too! BUT I have fixed it! Seemed the APN was wiped for me and is probably the same for you. I added the following APN and boom, all fixed! LTE, 3G, w/e you want! This had all the settings here Hope this gets things running for you too!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I waited all day to see an MMS! Totally made my day!

Just a heads up, that fix I posted was buggy for me as that doesn't actually include the proper Rogers LTE settings so I had random disconnects during today. Hopefully you're not, but if you notice your connection to be spotty pm me and I can send you my updated apn setting for rogers LTE network.

Just a heads up, I am also having this issue and it seems to be with any AT&T based rom. I have a telus one x. Added Telus APN and flashing different radio did not fix my problem. I tried both clean rom V6 R2 and an AT&T stock rom. I have flashed viper without issues and Original Android roms work fine. I notice a few people having this issue and some seem to be able to resolve by adding APN while others cannot resolve the issue. I'm at work right now so I can't do much testing but I will when I get home this evening. If anyone else has anything to add or perhaps if someone knows how to fix the issue, you're two cents is welcome!
Thanks!
*Edit* It seems as though my issue was being caused due to TWRP 2.4 not wiping properly so I went back to 2.3.3 and did a clean wipe/flash and all works fine after entering APN settings.

After setting the above APN settings, your data should work. But in my case, I kept loosing signal frequently at random. The following step fixed that for me:
1. Dial *#*#4636#*#*
2. Select Phone Information
3. Under Set preferred network type: Select GSM auto (PRL)
Now my reception will go as low as one bar but it will never cut
Hope this helps!

[Solved] To Straight Talk from Verizon APN

You can use your existing SIM, but I ran *228 on mine a while ago and wanted back to 4gLTE
I obtained a new SIM from Straight Talk for free
You can get the SIM on Wal-Mart.com for $5 (BYOD Kit)
I had them re-provision my phone
I ported my number
I had problems with everything after a while
I reflashed to Lollipop - Fresh Everything
It went back to the Straight Talk network after flashing (fresh not-dirty)
I can now text as well (not sure this ever stopped)
I called Straight Talk and got an APN from them since none of the APN I had was working
Within a minute of placing in the APN it was working
APN Info
acct.tf.gw6.vzwentp
mcc = 311
mnc = 480
apn type = default,dun,supl

Just wanted to share my experience.

wow, it's too bad i called straight talk 70 times and they couldn't tell me this

New setting is
TRACFONE.VZWENTP

I've tried this and numerous other APNs on my LG G2 (VS980) but I've had no luck. Anyone have any other suggestions to try out? I've called ST a few times and have even tried a new SIM card to no avail. Still stuck with 3G

If your on straight talk do you have the right sim card? If it's a verizon device you need a specific CDMA sim card
Sent from my Nexus 6

Yes. Both cards that I've tried are cdma. When I switch my radio to GSM I get no signal. LTE only, no signal. And CDMA I get 3G. ST says that I have all my provisions and that the signal should switch on its own, but 3 weeks later, still no 4G

With straight talk all you need is the app to set the APN settings on most phones. As long as it's set it should work. I've had 3 phones now that work like a charm on straight talk

I've also tried the app and I think its only for GSM phones. I've also tried flashing different ROMs but that didn't work either. I'm running out of options for getting this phone to work. I'm almost starting to believe that they are doing this on purpose so that I spend money on a new phone. Lol.

I have a VZW S3 that I used the app on and ran 4G with no issues. I used the app to add the APN settings just fine. I've noticed custom roms have the APN settings built in

Straight talk has a data settings app in the play store but most phones now automatically recognize the apn settings via the sim card

Just wanted to say this worked for my dad's LG Treasure (ugh.) Spent about an hour scouring the net and this is the thing that fixed it.
Thanks!
Edit- Also the ST Data app errored out when I pressed "Go." Useless.

I dont understand how the dumb ZTE phone i bought for $40 from walmart with a straight talk plan works AMAZING, gets 25mbps speeds, gets awesome signal. But the S4 i just bought the BYOD sim card for just refuses to get a good signal, gets slow speeds 1mbps to 5mbps, constanly loses its data. I dont know what to do. Im about to just go back to the phone that can only handle one app open at a time since its actaully worked. It would be nice to use navigation and listen to pandora though lol

data offline and no mms
My rooted Verizon GS5 with TF sim card is randomly losing data service (group mms is now working with textra). ST customer service provided an APN but the issue with data offline is recurring. I used BuildProp and APNchangeR apps to update APN settings (leave all other fields blank) steps:
1. Installed BuildProp, Edit code at bottom to add:
#Code:
ril.sales_code=LOL
ro.csc.sales_code=LOL
2. Save changes and Restart Phone
3. Open APNchangeR (Note: APN will disappear after saving but is there)
Name: TRACFONE.VZWENTP
APN: tfdata
4. Open BuildProp, edit to remove code, save, and restart.
From this post, it appears the settings provided by ST might be wrong and should be:
Name: TRACFONE.VZWENTP
APN: Info
MMSC: acct.tf.gw6.vzwentp
MCC: 311
MNC: 480
APN Type: default,dun,supl
APN Protocol: 4 & 6 (local and roaming)
*After updating settings to above, is anyone still getting data offline or mms issues?

Missing a few things for the apns. I know with newer phones you don't even need to add the apn manually where as the sim card is automatically recognized. I can screenshot what is missing but I know if varies by device. My Nexus 5 was recognized by default as well as the N6 but the S3 needed to be input manually. My co worker has an S5 and it also needed to be input manually

Those are the APNs I've used on ST S3 for 2 years, no issues at all. What is missing? They are also the APNs I got from Tracfone/Straight Talk.
The N5 I got my wife and put on ST didn't need APNs set either, it did that by default from SIM.
