No 4G - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I have rooted and flashed Beans B10, since flashing I have no 4G. I did a clean install and have also reflashed and still no 4G. Anyone else have an experience on getting 4G back?

Flash a different modem. Which one do you have installed currently?

Does your 3g work just not LTE? Are you flashing the rpm as well? I had an issue once when I flashed just the modem and that entire day I couldn't connect to LTE but 3g connected fine. When I took the time to flash the rpm my LTE returned. So I flash both every time now.

Re-flashed the ROM and used that Modem. Not in a 4G area so we will see what happens.

Cool, post back with your results

Try installing the Phone Info app from the Play store I did and it lets you force toggle the correct 4G/LTE settings for your provider. Not sure which one you'll need, but I've used that app to sort mine out when it acted up. Also did the modem and rpm updates, but phone info got me better results.

The last thing I can suggest is that you Odin flash either a VRALF2 or VRALG1 rom then reprovision your sim card. This formats your internal storage:
*2767*3855#
if you do that and still no LTE, I'd definitely do the following suggestion:

Have you verified what network you're on? Settings - more settings - mobile networks - network mode.
It should be set on CDMA /LTE. I've had flashes before changed that to global or gsm....

I was at Walmart today in their cell phone area and looked at a S3 that was on Verizon. I checked the mobile networks and it shows Global. Called a co-worker who has once and he too was on global and getting 4G. I Odin back and tried the*2767*3855# and got a recording that my call couldn't be connected. Any other ideas?

Manually restored IMEI and now roaming

So, I used the method posted by PureMotive to manually get my IMEI back without a backup, and it worked. Now my phone just says I'm roaming all the time. I know other people have had this issue as well, but has anyone figured out how to fix it? Any help would be great! Thanks in advance!

Should work. Is your IMEI still intact?
If you dial *#06# and have no IMEI then chances are if you are rooted then you used the wrong root package.

Thanks for the link. Finally got it working again. Visited an EE shop, asked to try the sim in one of their handsets, once powered on the connection worked. This led me to think it was either the handset or the firmware. Put the sim back in my phone and voila, the connection worked! For some reason it appears the simcard was acting up, cant explain why

Cleanrom 5.0 lost 4G LTE... Please help!

I recently installed Scotts cleanrom 5.0 and lost my 4G. I've updated the modem to the latest JB leak but still nothing. I've even tried going back to previous modem but still no luck. Someone please let me know what they think I could do to get my 4G back.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
Yeah, I don't get 4G neither. I seem to always get Edge connections.
Had you turned 4G off by chance on any other ROM? AOSP?
I definitely don't believe I turned it off, unless it happened by accident. Is my only solution to go stock, back to ICS? Or is there a way around this without having to wipe everything AGAIN?

It should have in clean ROM. Do you have a backup of stock. If so make a backup of clean, restore stock and dial the code then restore clean. It should work.

Download the app phone info. Go in there and check what your network setting is. I've had it selected to let in the normal menu and I went in that and it showed CDMA auto PRL. If it shows that. Select late/CDMA/evdo or whatever it is again. If it is already showing lte then, select turn off radio, choose another option (best bet CDMA auto Prl) then turn on radio... once the network comes on repeat that again back to lte

[Q] Roaming help for CM 10.1 Flash PLEASE!!

I flashed CM 10.1 and got some errors about network connectivity, so decided to just go back to my backup of a rooted stock image. Afterwards i still see that i dont have network connectivity, and i am now roaming. I Saw some guides saying to flash back to a stock image. But can i do that with an OTA JB version already? and ive read about just "reprovision my phone", will it work even with the rooted stock image?
Thanks

and im not exactly sure by what you mean subscription type, and can i just do the reprovision code if im just OTA JB with just root?
Under mobile settings there is an option for CDMA subscription type it must be rui/sim, nit sure if it's on stock though.
Also the repro vision code doesn't work on jb that's why you must go back to root66

You can lose that no matter what you flash. That's why all ROMs say to back it up before flashing.
