Do you need NE5 modem for this to activate properly?
No you dont. I've seen others that couldn't get this to activate properly had to call sprint and there was an issue with their account and sprint is able to correct the it.
I had the same issue
When I first loaded the mystery ROM. I ended up going on to my sprint account fron a computer and sniffing around until I found the option for wifI calling. I think it was under the accoint preferences and it worked fine. My buddy who is on my framily plan had the issue also, however after trying a few times, I booted into recovery and wiped user data/factory reset and the cache and then it worked with no issues.

My wife's T-mobile nexus s was rooted and was updated from stock to 2.3.2 to cm7.1 along with the KD1 radio and trinity kernel about a week ago. Today I enabled her wifi hotspot and it worked fine for about 20 minutes. Then she turned it off and tried to get on the market from her phone and could not connect. So I look at it and data and wifi are gone and won't turn on. I have managed to recover wifi. I have in this order tried:
Playing with 2g/3g and mobile data settings
Rebooting
Fixing Permissions in CW
Reflashing the radio
Reflashing the rom after clearing cache and dalvik cache
Restoring a nandroid from before the crash after wiping data, cache, dalvik, system and doing a factory reset. This step is what got my wifi back.
The md5s from the rom, kernel, and radio match up so I don't think it is that.
I then had to leave, so she has the phone right now and it makes calls and will recieve text, just no mobile data. So as I now I'm kind stuck. Anyone have any ideas.
My sister's mobile internet was once deactivated as tethering wasn't covered by her contract and they couldn't "upgrade" her to a monthly fee that'd have included tethering. After calling the carrier she got her data connection back.
It was a gremlin from the apn rename function of the data toggle from Widgetsoid. I remembered that I had to use apn rename to get it to work when I first set it up. I forgot about it when uninstalling and the hotspot finally broke Mobile Data and WiFi somehow because of it. I just had to reinstal widgetsoid and switch to root toggle (since now the apn rename does not work as it did before being broken) and turned it on and off. Now I've uninstalled it again as she doesn't need it anymore and everything works.
Wasn't as difficult as I feared it was going to be.
I have double and triple checked the APN settings. No luck. I feel like a complete retard, but why cant this phone connect to the network?
It doesn't even appear to try. Any suggestions?
I haven't a clue why, but I've been told multiple times that the infuse won't be able to connect to Tmobile data services in any manner.
I'm in the same boat, when did you notice this? I ask because mine just started doing this yesterday. Here's a brief synopsis of what I've done:
- I was running stock GB 2.3.6, from the Heimdall One-Click...had no issues for weeks (only had it a few weeks); once I realized that I can't get anything higher than EDGE speeds due to the hardware requirements, I went ahead and purchased the GN. So, my neighbor told me that she went to T-Mo (same phone) and the gentlemen 'input some codes' etc etc and she now had 3G (can't verify, I didn't grab her phone). I had an idea that he went into the phone testing mode (by doing the *#*#INFO#*#*) and maybe changed some of the network settings in there. So I figured I would give it a shot before I put it up for sale since my GN was coming today. So I went in and tried a few things, all to no avail....and then realized that I had NO data at all.
So at this point I did a factory reset (no luck), flashed the firmware/modem/etc from the Heimdall one-click, reset the APN settings (multiple times)....everything that I know to do with it....and STILL no data. But I can place calls, get texts, etc with no issue.
What's strange is after I flashed the stock GB rom, I went back into the testing mode (I guess that's what you call it???) and was checking a few things:
- if I run the ping test, it comes back null (no surprise) BUT it also lists 'GSM Service: In Service' and 'Network Type: EDGE'...it does show GPRS as disconnected.
I tried my SIM in an unlocked iPhone and it didn't have data connection. But I also put my roommates T-Mo SIM in the Infuse and it didn't have data either. I haven't had a chance to see if my SIM works (data wise) in the GN, because I haven't gotten it yet.
Any ideas on what to do?
**EDIT**
For some reason the data began to work about an hour after I posted this. Maybe the phone knew I was asking the experts and it had no where to hide?? Either way The_Joe I would try to maybe do a factory reset and if that doesn't work, to try to re-install the ROM/OS again.
Hey guys, quick background. I bricked my SGS3 and had to have it replaced. I think I got a refurb phone because from day one I keep having the same issue. First day I got the replacement phone I rooted it and flashed CleanROM 5.0. Everything was peachy until I noticed that I have no 4G or 3G service. In fact, I had no data connectivity at all. My phone can make calls, receive texts no problem, won't connect to internet. If I restart the phone, I have 4G right away. After a few minutes, the 4G icon is on, but the phone won't has no data connection (when I say data connection I mean it will not go online, no internet, no android market, still have voice and txts). If I attempt to go on internet, I get a message saying "No Signal Found For Mobile Networks". I have installed Network Signal Info and right after a restart it says 4G LTE, data connected, upload+download activity. After a few minutes, it says 4G LTE, data connected, after a little while, it will switch to EHRPD, with data "connecting". Also, in the System tab, it will tell me my IEMI and version of JB running, next to "Radio", it says "unknow". WiFi works perfectly btw. My IEMI is perfectly fine,
I had it backed up. My phone number is still there.
Here is what I had tried so far: Switching into and out of Airplane mode, different programs that reset mobile connection, flashed different custom ROMs, flashed the stock kernel, flashed 3 or 4 verizon Modems, Data wipe, cache, Dalvik wipe, Odin'ed back to stock 4.0.1 ICS and had upgraded it to 4.1.1 via verizon software update, changed the SIM card, and reprovisioned the phone with that *3767*whatever the hell code. I'm out ideas.
If anyone has any other idea that I can try before I take it back to Verizon, please, let me know.

Did you go into your mobile data settings to make sure you're on CDMA/LTE? If not I would select and reboot the phone and see if the problem persists. I don't know if you have tried this but it's worth a shot.
I'm having literally the same exact problem with my mom's S3 except for it's not rooted, complete with 'download + upload activity' and 'unknown' radio. I've yet to find anything in my search, but if I do I'll post it here.

I did try that. Nothing seems to be working.
I have a Straight Talk LG L40G that is not rooted, everything was working fine until about a week ago. My wifi is working to access the internet, but my 3G is not. I can make and receive phone calls but I cannot connect internet via 3g. I have been in contact with straight talk but to no avail, we tried everything. I have data enabled, cleared cache,history,cookies. Tuned on airplane mode and then turned off, Have shut off and on again, Have removed battery. Even did a factory reset, but to no avail. The 3g internet is not working. I also restored internet to default. I am at my wits end. Please point me in the right direction. I am hoping someone can help me, please. Straight talk says they have been doing some updates to my phone, but so far that is not working either. Please does anyone know why my 3g is not working anymore?
First thing I'd wish for you to check is the Access Point Names AKA APNs. Typically this happens when the APN isn't set Right. Usually you can Access APNs via Settings > Network > Access Point Names. Please check what yours is set to. Ask Straight Talk to confirm.
already checked APN with straight talk
That was just about one of the first things that was checked by Straight Talk. I wish I knew what the problem was. Like I said everything was working until about a week ago.
It has been reported elsewhere there are a number of problems with Android 4.4.3 KitKat, on your Device. These include random problems that range from LTE/3G signal issues to dropped calls, app crashes, and major battery life drain.
I have android 4.0.3. It was working good until about a week ago. I haven't done anything different so I am assuming it has to be on Straight Talks end. They don't seem to know how to fix it though, so I may be stuck using the phone like this for awhile.
Can you have them check to see if your Data Limit is over or such like ? Also if possible, try the Sim in another phone so we can determine if it is Straight Talk ?
As stated I'm using the LG G5 H830 T-Mobile variant. I am getting 4G LTE data connection and everything runs well (Not in any WiFi range) Yet for SMS and calling as well as mobile hotspot I get "No USIM card' error. This happened after wiping the system and formatting data. Rebooted recovery (as per instructions on forum) then installed the stock firmware & Patch with systemless root and xposed. After this I did factor reset when just pulling the sim didn't help. Still nothing. I reflashed just the stock firmware with TWRP and SuperSU and issue is still happening. I've disabled rebooted and enabled the phone radio. SIM is in good condition and tray as well everything is SECURE and should be good to go.
I'm assuming a new SIM might be a solution. But I'm not counting on it and with Labor Day tomorrow for me I wouldn't be able to pick one up for 2 days. So here I am...hoping someone might have a fix. I know I don't have many posts on here. But I am an experienced user....just not with the more basic of problems I guess
Thanks!!
Has anyone else experienced this yet? I'm just curious...I had it fixed for a couple days. I've formatted data and done complete system wipe. Tried it resetting phone with the COMPLETE zip and TOT using LGUP. I'm receiving texts. Not calls. Not able to send either. I've activated new sim, didn't help. LG support just told me to look into warranty. T-Mobile needless to say just wanted. Sim card does show stock tmobile short code contacts but phone number shows as unknown. Hotspot won't work. I've tried setting the phone number to the sim. Nothing.
Anyways. I don't think I messed with anything, even so I've done everything to start the phone from scratch. Going to replace it, just more or less curious at this point and maybe others have had the same issue.
I believe I had the same issue as you and it was driving me crazy. I was constantly wiping data, system, etc but my phone kept giving the message "roaming indicator off" where it should show the name of the carrier. This resulted in me having LTE data and that's it- no 3g, no phone calls, etc. I couldn't even access the mobile network menu.
What ended up causing the issue was the network mode setting under wireless networks. Keep in mind at this point I'm running a patched rom which now gives more options in the network mode menu than the phone came factory with. I have an area at work where I have to switch to 3g, GSM/wcdma preferred network setting, because although I have full LTE signal, my connection goes dead. When switching back from 3g I chose the setting lte/CDMA thinking this would force my phone to stay in lte mode due to another area on an upper floor where the phone will constantly drop lte.
Anyways this resulted in my phone saying roaming indicator unavailable, the inability to make or receive phone calls, and either the mobile networks or network mode menus being grayed out. When stuck in this mode there is no way to put the phone back into the standard "GSM/wcdma/lte" mode. Even a complete reflash won't fix it. I even used lgup, which worked for maybe a day until it force closed the phone app and went back to roaming indicator unavail. I wiped every partition and even reflashed radio firmware. Nothing worked.
What ended up fixing it was using an app called v10 hidden settings which allowed me to access the network mode menu directly and re-choose the lte/wcdma/GSM setting. Incidentally on first access to this menu through the app there are only two network settings available. Once you choose a GSM setting, the rest appear.
I'm not sure if this was your issue but I hoped this helped because this took me about a week to workout.
