Hey Guys!
I swear I read this some where before, but I can't find it now: Somebody was talking about the N5 binaries being posted recently and noticed that CDMA wasn't mentioned. Another person chimed in and said that ASOP ROMS wouldn't work the same, or as well, when using a nexus 5 on Sprint. Can anybody elaborate on that? I understand that CDMA was an issue for ASOP on older devices.
I am using DroidKang v2 which is the latest unofficial nightly for CM11 on my Sprint. My signal is low on the LTE, might be a problem where tri-band is not activated on AOSP? Also PRL provisioning does not work in the settings.
Kangkat works for me. I first found out about this issue when I tried to flash purity rom. My data was just gone, but could make phone calls. Is it something with the rom or on sprint's side? Its very disappointing.

With kangkat, you have full (voice /data/sms/mms) network functionality? But with purity you did not?
Looks like most devs are fixing the issue. :good:

Mine worked on the stock rom, make sure your setting is set to GLOBAL then you will get the Carrier menu. However I had to put my Nexus back to AT&T because it would constantly Random Reboot once the screen turned off. Very odd.

Well I'm on the latest CM nightly (CM 10.1 -20130312) and I just came from CM 10. I tried CM 10.1 before but I had little to no signal and I've decided to give the latest nightly a chance and well, I still have the same problems as before. I flashed the 3.18 radio on it and it literally made NO difference at all. I hate the AT&T variant of the phone. On the CM 10 version I didn't have this problem but there were times that I'd go half an hour to a full hour without getting any texts and then they'll all come in at once (and I know its no coincidence because some of those messages contain people wondering why I haven't replied yet). So can anyone help me with this problem please?? I really like CM 10.1 but not having any mobile data and an even worse signal is a REAL deal breaker for me.
I was having the same issue until I went into settings and changed it to GSM/WCDMA.

I used to be tech support for att. Obvious question: has this happen before? Now to put my xda hat on. Did you change APN settings? Is this the only rom you flashes? Also call att (611) and have them cancel registration. This basically kicks you off the network and bring you back on. Sim cards are not the issue as the are unable to determine signal strength. Hope you get it fixed.

I think it has something to do with the 3.18 radio. I never had problems until flashing it. I have tried multiple roms. Sense based and aosp. It happens on both although it seems to be worse on aosp. I went out of state and lost signal completely while running the latest Chameleon. I went into settings and as soon as I stopped it from searching for LTE it went to full signal. Maybe a tower upgrade issue? 3.18 radio issue? I guess it's something for devs to look into. I know not all towers are the same. 3.18 maybe conflicting with the area he is in. Somebody will get it figured out lol.

That's just weird. I flashed 3.18, and still get the same coverage (4-5 bars, 6mbps data). I don't see how it can effect you. The device is dual HSPA+/LTE. So if the device cannot find LTE, it will always back (circuit switch fall back). Even when I went to an LTE area (Nashville, TN), it still work perfectly. Could be something up with the physical radio inside of the phone. The LTE towers are suppose to be backwards compatible, but we know how companies can be. If your device is working in one area, and not the other, then it is a tower issue. Even though AT&T may find that their towers are ok, it is a tower issue, and there is no doubt around that. Now if it just gives you random coverage, no matter where you are, then it is the phone itself.
Having the same issue on CM. Just tried changing to WCDMA and my signal doubled. That is weird but thanks you guys.
I know you will drop 3g data on a call. That I completely understand. But this is the first device I've used that is dropping my lte data during a call. I'm not sure if this is a rom issue or a modem issue.
I am on sprint, and not sure if this is an isolated issue for sprint customers or across the board.
Another issue I would like to see resolved is patching native tethering. I'm currently stuck using WiFi tether app in ad-hoc mode. Which unfortunately my nexus 7 can't attach to.
In case you're wondering I'm running slim kat currently. I've tried cm and stock before rooting and all formats have dropped LTE on call.
Probably because there is no voice over LTE. Same happens on Rogers too.

But I've always had voice over LTE on Sprint. Just not with this phone. Galaxy nexus, and HTC one never had that issue.
If it's something I have to live with, that's fine. I just would like to see this feature implemented if possible.
maybe its the way the radio is designed for this phone?
thats my only guess.

Nope, not going to happen. It requires a very specific setup with the radios that results in poor battery life. Sprint does not run with voice over LTE, it's simply running calls as normal and keeping LTE active at the same time.
In addition, large portions of Sprint's network outright do not support this functionality anyway.
Alright so ive been looking and looking and i havent had much luck. Is there just not much support for the moto g boost mobile variant? am i just over looking or what?
We have Roms, recoveries, etc.. What more do you need?
Sent from my XT1031 using Tapatalk
I didnt see a lot for the xt1031 aswell just the 1032 and 1034. Im guessing their not interchangeable. I am looking to purchase a moto g but have decide which one and also not sure how the hspa compares to lte on metro
They roms for the most part are interchangeable, (falcon).
So if someone has a boost moto g and flashes a verizon version rom they wont boot loop or brick their phones?
I know the S3 was not able to do that between carriers thats why Im asking
Aosp/cm based ROMs seem to be interchangeable. Do not go flashing official ota updates from carrier to another.

For Metro, I'd stick with the 1032 or 1034 (International GSM (also the Google Play Edition) and US GSM version). Metro won't support the CDMA versions (XT1028 & 1031 I believe) since joining with T-Mobile.
I can't give you a personal example of how the HSPA+ signal compares to Metro's LTE, but on my LG Motion, in the Dallas area, I'm getting anywhere from 5 to 10 Meg download speeds. I've seen people talking about 10 to 15 download speeds on the Metro/T-Mobile HSPA+, so I think it'd be pretty comparable, if not better.
I'm still waiting on my Uncle Sam to give me my tax refund after filing it a couple of days ago. I'm planning on getting my Moto G in the next couple of weeks or so. I will get the US GSM variant (XT1034).

Just letting you know every time I have flashed a ROM no matter if it's xt1031 or 32 I always get roaming indicator off and can't get rid of it. Just saying. If anyone knows a workaround let me know. Cause it still shows I have 3g but my phone won't show my carrier name.

Yeah, I have that same problem, even with CM11's official build.
Are you able to send/receive MMS?
Any builds other than that for the XT1031 breaks MMS, as far as I know. I've tried messing with APN settings with no avail.
I'd like some clarification, as well, if anyone has any ideas
I haven't tried sending any MMS, but I definitely can't retrieve them. Idk what the deal is. I haven't found anybody else with the problem besides you. I had stated another thread on this but I didn't get much help. Seams like it went ignored. One guy did try buy I didn't get anywhere either. It Sean's like roaming indicator off blocks off a couple things like pics and what not but everything else continues just fine. I even tried to do a flash from stock 4.3 and 4.4.2 and still nothing.

It seems like it's an APN issue to me, honestly. I decided to completely to restore my stock firmware using the guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47820707#post47820707
The roaming indicator text is gone and MMS can be sent/received.
Afterwards, I re-rooted my device and just left it as-is until the problem is rectified. Have you tried flashing either the the ROMS by Team-Osiris?

So wait you had troubles with it on your stock ROM? Only time I had troubles was when I flashed a custom ROM.
And I have not tried the Team-Osiris ROMS.

No, only until I flashed any custom ROM did I have the problem.
Now that the issues are gone, I'm rooted stock, and have since made a nandroid with working MMS and "Boost Mobile" as the carrier name.
Here are the ROMs:

I will give them a try once I get home. I had to wake up early and go completely back to stock in the same 40 minutes it took me to get ready. So I don't have root and custom recovery ATM. But I will later and I can report what happens with those builds. What recovery are you using?

Alright so I used the both ROMs from Osiris, both Baked and normal. They don't gave roaming indicator off but instead it shows the network is Sprint. MMS still doesn't Sean to work but that's the only problem I gave. Data behaves the same. I started using twrp with touch fixed from dhackers cm11 page. Give it a try maybe.

Does anyone here have issues with poor cell phone reception after installing new roms? I have a Razr HD XT926 4.4.2 running a unlocked but stock rom because everytime I go to another rom (I have tried 10+ different roms) I end up getting poor cell phone reception. In my apartment I typically get 2-3 bars on verizon but with new roms I get 0-1 bars and when I am outside I never get more than 2 when I normally get 4+. This is preventing me from using any rom because I absolutely cannot be without reception for work.
All roms install just fine but just this issue. Anyone else have this?
Thanks
Anyone else having this problem? No one?

Hey! So, I came here to try and find some help on this issue or post myself if nothing else. I also have an XT926 4.4.2 with unlocked bootloader on stock rom. I have tried many different roms and personally I love PacRom, but no matter what rom besides stock that I use, I can not get Mobile Data. I haven't checked the cell reception, but the mobile data does not work at all until I wipe and go back to stock. It's really frustrating because I would love to use a different rom other than stock. I do have xposed running on stock, but it can not give me everything a custom rom can. If anyone knows a fix to this, please let us know!

yes, not as extreme as you, but from what I've read along the way its common to all AOSP roms. My battery life is noticeably worse because its searching for signal.

Hmm... I am on stock at the moment, but I will go to a custom rom for a bit again probably tomorrow to mess around with the settings again. Either way I will post what I tried and possibly screenshots for maybe more help on my part or to help others if they have the same situation. I just have no idea what needs to be changed. I tried copying the apn settings from stock, but that didn't seem to work. Maybe I did something wrong or missed a step or something. I'll be back tomorrow. Thanks!
I have had an OPO since 2014 november, and since then, i have had install many various roms. But since august and i installed official cm12.1, my phone stopped working properly. While the phone is just idle on lte, when i get a call, i see the antenna change back to 3g but i dont get the call, and couple seconds later for the caller, call goes to voicemail. Or when i try to make a call on lte, most times, it doesnt connect like it cant properly work on 3g networks. When im on 2g everything works fine. But obviously i dont wanna get stuck on 2g. Also, i have tried probably every possible related thread and method, including going stock, going cm11s ( first official stock rom), installing different recoveries (twrp 2.8.6.0, 2.8.7.0.5 materialized, philz) and the modems and basebands even with fastboot. And nothing seemed to worked for me. So i was just wondering if i did mess up my phone or my phones modem or/and antenna. And how would i know for sure? Btw i also tried different sims. No luck.

I tried this one. I also tried to go back to 11s as well. Same thing every time. I can only have phoning experience on 2g. On lte works great for the data but 3g is hit or miss. I wonder if there is a way the set up the phone to go between lte and 2g for incoming/outgoing calls bypassing 3g option. I would be contempt with that.
