[Q] Rogers/Fido software help

Sorry if somebody's covered this but I am on Rogers Canada and ordered a razr hd lte, but it shipped with Fido software. I had an old koodo phone that I reflashed once and it booted up with Telus software, and did not work on the network, but after finding a hidden code for it I was able to select Koodo, and it rebooted with Koodo software and worked fine. I was wondering if this phone has an option like that and if anybody knows what it is. I was assuming there might be because the rogers/fido software seems to be the same.
Thanks for any help

Mine was a Rogers phone but as soon as I stuck my fido Sim in it switched to Rogers

Factory reset the phone then reboot. When you're setting it up you should then get the popup to setup the phone based on your SIM

[Q] 4.1.2 Rooted - Lose 4G During Calls

I recently upgraded to 4.1.2 successfully and also kept root with RootKeeper but I now have an issue that I did not have before with my 4G signal. Whenever I place a call on 4.1.2 my 4G data drops out when on all previous versions it stayed on. Also, I had the issue where my phone only had 3G active after upgrading to 4.1.2 so I went to Verizon, had them switch my SIM card and 4G came back.
Is anyone else having the issue of losing 4G data when placing calls?
Phone: Droid RAZR MAXX HD (XT926)
Carrier: Verizon Wireless
Version: 4.1.2 Rooted

Could someone please test this under the same circumstance I am in (XT926 4.1.2 Rooted) and let me know if they are having the same issue?
Just trying to decide if I want to get a replacement phone from Verizon to go back to 4.1.1 or this is an issue that is looking to be resolved. It sucks because I really enjoy 4.1.2, the phone is much snapper and responds way quicker when opening and closing apps
Thanks!

Doesn't happen to me.you sure about the 4g drop and just an icon change on the bar? Check networks in the settings menu during a call.

Thanks for your response! Any communication about what others are dealing with is helpful as it lets me understand the issue may only be on my end.
I've attached a screenshot of the "More" section under "Wireless & networks" from my phone during a phone call. As you can tell I do not have the 4G icon on my task bar and I am not able to modify the "Mobile networks" section as it is grayed out. Any idea why this may be?
I've also tried to use the Internet through a browser while on a phone call and it does not connect confirming I do not have Internet connection.

Sounds like a weird os issue.I would try a factory reset or full sbf if you want to stay stock.otherwise try safestrap and install another rom like vit.to test the results.

I've done a factory reset but have not done a full sbf yet because I do not want to lose root on my device. I truly enjoy 4.1.2 and enjoy it even more rooted so going back to a bone stock would really be disappointing. I will try to install a rom through safestrap to see if I get the same results.
If I do a full sbf, is there anyway for me to get root back on my 4.1.2 device?
Thanks again for your suggestions and responses!

I changed ROMs and I still have the issue. I ended up having Verizon send me a new phone out. Just got the new phone and everything is working right now. I am not to sure what happened with the old one but its definitely an issue only pertaining to my phone.
Could you please provide me with the steps you took to get your phone rooted on 4.1.2 so I can get back there?

[Q] XT926 4.3 Roms not detecting SIM Card?

I have an unlocked and rooted XT926 and have been successfully installing roms on this regularly until the 4.3 roms have come out. Each time I install a rom that is based on android 4.3, they install and work but cannot detect the SIM card. It is like the device doesn't see the card at all.The selector is always stuck at NV and switching to RUIM/SIM does not stay set.
I can install 4.1 or 4.2 based roms just fine, either from a backup or by doing a clean install and have the sim card detected and data connectivity, just not any 4.3 based ones. Can anyone suggest a cure?

Resolved
I was able to resolve this. I had originally rooted back in December from stock with motochopper. That was apparently my problem because after I re-rooted using the Razr HD Utility version 1.21 all is fine in the world now. Let the flashing begin......

You have an xt926 running a 4.3 based rom and you are on gsm? Please explain your exact steps, because it seems no one is having sucess with the new roms and gsm

So my XT926 is running the latest PacMan ROM but I am restricted to 2g data. When I unchecked the 2g only box, the phone doesn't even register. I am using the Pacman GSM rom. I am using Net10. UMTS works with the stock rom but i thing i still need to do some digging to get it to work with the AOSP rom

Does anyone know if the gsm network for the xt926 works with later builds of cm 10.2 or cm10.2 based roms?
Best regards

I was just in Spain and tried to use a Vodafone SIM card in my Verizon xt926 (CM 10.2 ROM). The phone was set on Global and it detected the SIM card, but could not find any network. Updating the APN list did not work either. Sucks, thought the xt926 had international radios.

It does. The problem is with the ROM. Stock ROM works great internationally.

Razr hd on pageplus

Has anyone been able to get the Droid razr HD or razr maxx hd on Pageplus on kitkat with working 3g & mms?
Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using XDA Free mobile app

Not that I have heard of. There is a thread on Howard forums about this very issue. After root and bootloader unlock was available, I upgraded to 4.4.2. I could not get 4.4.2 to work with the old methods. Tried writing a 4.0.4 modem into 4.4.2 and it would not work at all with the KK update. I have heard that you can flash a CM 4.4 rom after you have everything working on 4.1.2 and will still have PagePlus. I have not tried this approach yet. Others more knowledgeable than I, have not yet gotten PagePlus service with the stock 4.4.2 yet.
Jackie

I've been trying everything I can think of but no luck yet. The best I was able to do is take advantage of the bootloader unlock. Downgrade to 4.1.2 stock. Flash the ics radio driver. Get page Plus working. Install twrp then flash cm11. there are several 4.4 roms made for the 3.0 jb kernel. But now even cm builds are starting to build on the new kernel+bootloader and do not work with the ics radio.
Tapatalk'n it from my XT907 (MoKee 4.4.4) on Page Plus Cellular.

And I was loving the new setup to kitkat.

There was a post over on Howard Forums by Milo1946 about the Mokee 4.4.4 rom having the ability to set NV only mode from the rom itself. It is under Mobile Network settings. I don't know anything about this rom. Has anyone tried this and if so did it work to get onto PagePlus?

Tried it, no good
Edit: to elaborate on this. The setting is on all the new cm11 builds but it seems to have the same problem as editing the setting via dfs. It'll always revert to ruim on reboot unless running the ics radio.

Thanks thewraith, I guess we are stuck on 4.1.2. I have heard that Verizon is going to allow LTE on their prepaid. There is some talk of that filtering down to PagePlus. If and when that occurs then will go back to KK.

Yeah that would be nice but I'm not holding my breath waiting for them. The jb bootloader cm11 builds work very good, the only issue I experience is the screen dimmer bug.. It'll sometimes get stuck a bit dimmer then I'd like but it's not that bad. If I ever get the time I've been considering pulling in the source myself to tinker around

Impossible

Yes, impossible even with unLocked BL, since they have changed BL in latest 4.4.4, afaik...

Reliance CDMA?
Please get latest series of SIM card from them and try again.
