How to at least get 3G back for now while verison works stuff out.

If your someone whos stuck on 1x this will at least get you back to 3g.
Use the ##778# menu (hit call after ##778#)-->password is 000000-->modem settings-->Rev A-->choose enable-->hit the menu button on the tbolt and commit changes
Update:
So to answer the question of should you change this back?
The default setting is eHPRD which is verizons simultaneous voice and data 3G network. By hitting enable your switching your phone do EVDO or Rev A is pretty much their older 3G netowrk. The info is yours now you make the call of weather you should or shouldnt
To Revert back once everything is fixed:
Use the ##778# menu (hit call after ##778#)-->password is 000000-->modem settings-->Rev A-->choose eHPRD-->hit the menu button on the tbolt and commit changes

So is this a network problem or a phone problem because of flashing radios?

Actually I think it is just 4G. The reason our phones lose 3G as well is explained in this article.

The issue with not getting 3G can be fixed by following the instructions in the OP.

It worked on my phone, although it did take a minute or two once my phone rebooted before the 3G connection started. That was probably because I am in a building that actually gets great 4G coverage, but spotty 3G coverage.

It works but its in and out for me here in tampa. So let me ask this. When lte comes back on do we go back in and change it back to previous setting?

If you want to do voice and data at the same time over 3G yes.

Thanks for this. I was beginning to think it was the rom I was using.

I wish i'd have seen this sooner...I thought it was the ROM as well and unrooted my phone this morning just to find that wasn't it. CS informed me there was a nationwide outage after the fact (I have been stuck on 1X since yesterday)
Quick question - I was so quick to try this that I didn't pay attention to the original settings of the phone does anyone know what they are so I can revert back when the system comes back up?

Hanks for the quick fix! Any negative affects of leaving the settings like this even after big red gets their **** straight? Oh, btw, I am in NC with no 4g coverage at all. This worked like a charm.

[Q] LTE on CM10 tried everything

For some reason I cannot get LTE to work at all on CM10. I've done everything and it still wont work at all. I tried reverting back to stock rom, and when I did, LTE worked. So I thought if I went back to CM10 from stock it would resolve the issue, but it did not. I've checked my APNs and I cannot change the preferred network mode and i tried *#*#info#*#* and i can't change anything there to anything that has LTE on it. I'm not sure if it's just a problem with the ROM or what, but I've done plenty of researched, searched all the forums, and can't find anything that will fix.
Additional information:
Im in ATT
I've tried all the radios
and I AM in an LTE area.

Just making sure, but you know the LTE icon doesn't exist in cm10 , right? LTE is indicated by the 4g icon

Ok, try different apn. Which cm10 are you trying to use?

Does the problem happen on other ROMs? I'm not saying to use a different ROM, just saying that if it doesn't happen on, say, AOKP or Orthus (both CM-based), it's probably an issue with how CM10 is configured on your phone.

If you go into network operators (settings -network)and select att it will allow to change modes.

Haha yeah most of the time this setting is overlooked and this option enables you to turn off LTE if you want (which you don't have to have a RAT unlocked modem as presumed) and if you go to *#*#4636#*#* on your dialer you can have it set to LTE only as well.

I actually have another problem now, after a reboot, it doesn't show any options for me to choose under available networks?
it came back after a few tries but then went away again, it's not consistently there to choose.

Does it show a searching animation?

I have the exact same issues. I've done everything on this post plus done all the research as well. For my problem whenever I enter an LTE area my data service completely drops for about 5 seconds and then when it connects it only shows HSPA+. I have never been able to pick up LTE. When I was on CM9.1 I had no issues at all. LTE connected with no issues. So is this a CM10 issue or a phone issue?

try this, might help, might not, make a backup, if you have more than one apn, remove all apn's except your lte apn(ATT Pta, for rogers :ltemobile), restart phone
edit: of course make sure it was set to the lte apn in the first place, if it was and still have probs, do above procedure if you have more than one apn

For some reason my APN was not set to the lte one (ATT Pta). I changed it to that. Hopefully that fixes my problem. Thanks for the help!

I have a slightly different problem. I am running the latest cm10 nightly and notice that any time I get lucky and go into a 4g coverage area I can only make phone calls. No data transfers at all. I have my APN set to ATT LTE pta which I assumed is the right selection. Im normally in a A3g(HSPA)~700-17 coverage area. Is this the wrong APN to use?

Do you automatically switch back and fort from 3 to 4g with that APN setting when you move around without losing data capability?

Yup. I have HSPA/HSPA+ around my house but close to work I have LTE. No problem with switching or losing data connection when I go from HSPA to LTE. Just double check your APN settings. There might be a typo or some missing field. Or you can create a new APN for lte and use that as your default.

I can't get any sort of data signal at all from my phone! IT's already been 3 days since this happened and I can't change my APN, nor does switching the modem version work, what do I do?? I would really hate to call AT&T because they'll just blame the phone being rooted and expect me to go back to stock Gingerbread.
So someone please help me so that I wouldn't have to do that!

Have you tried ODIN back to stock to eliminate any potential external issues? I saw your post yesterday in my APN thread. At this point I would go back to stock and see if that helps and then from there root/flash the ROM of your choice.

Have you checked if you have your IMEI number?.? *#06# on dialer or look through the phone info in settings...

I had this issue once. This is what worked for me: settings > wireless & networks > mobile networks > use packet data [should be checked] ~ data roaming [should be unchecked]. My issue may have been different than urs. Good luck.

I just installed the new CM 10.1 and I have the same problem. Actually I've had it mostly with all the JB softwares out there that I tried. Could the signal problem be related to the IMEI? I think I've lost, indeed, my IMEI by changing to JB but could that be my problem? Yesterday I placed a few phone calls and it worked. Now it just random disconnects and it woun't allow me to make any phonecalls. Also it takes 5-10 minutes before it connects to the network (Vodafone - if it makes any difference). I just figuered it was a modem problem but you got me wondering.
Thanks

GPE Rom can't use data and talk at same time

Sorry I had to post this here because it won't let me post on the rom forum. Has anyone had any issues with not being able to use data and talk at the same time? or use the usb tethering, the wifi tethering works.

I did not have that issue when using the GPE rom no. Did you make any changes to the APN settings? Did you take it off of Global?

I'm pretty sure I read a few other users in that thread saying the same.

I have not changed anything on the rom, I had to change the sim card the other day because no matter what I was only on 3g and no LTE. all the settings are correct for me to have LTE. when I was in the Verizon store on Monday I checked there display phone and it is automatic set to global, even the rep there said that all these phones automatically set itself to global. when I change it to LTE instead of global I get no signal what so ever, and when I go to *#*#4636#*#* and change it to the lte/gsm/cdma I still get no signal.

Use Sprint Note5 on Tmobile

Hi guys, this is my first post so please be easy on me. I have an unlocked Sprint Note5 that I use on Tmobile network right now. I added the 'fast. t-mobile.com' APN and have mobile network working. BUT ONLY 3G!! The fastest I've gotten so far is about 10 Mbps or so, and usually it's just 2-3 Mbps.
My question: is there a way for me to get LTE on this device with Tmobile? Or it's hardware/software impossible? For the simple reason of Samsung Pay, I'd rather not root my phone. The Samsung Pay has given A LOT promotions so far and I prefer to keep it.

I was in this same predicament. You have to choose LTE.
What worked for me was choosing LTE/CDMA mode from Network Mode and then when setting up the APN, there should be a section at the bottom that says 'Bearer'. Click that and choose LTE. After that LTE started working for me. You should also be able to switch to Automatic Network Mode after this.

so is the phone already unlock

OMG, it worked like magic!! Who would know to choose LTE/CDMA knowing that Tmobile uses GSM. Many many thanks!! All of sudden I'm getting ~50 Mbps v.s. the 2 Mbps 3G speed. This is NICE!

I bought the phone at full price at Best Buy and it took me a while fighting with Sprint to get it unlocked (I was with Sprint at the time even). According to their unlock policy posted online, the phone should be automatically unlocked already if bought at full price. They honored that but it just took forever and so many departments to get it done eventually. You'd have to be tenacious about it. I plan to do a factory reset with tmobile sim in to get rid of all the Sprint bloatware.

Hi everybody, also my first message here.
I got the same problem, but a little worse. I bought a SM N920P unlocked by mistake (from ebay) as I didn`t know that Sprint was CDMA. I live in Brazil and there`s only GSM carriers. It works here for voice and data but can only get 3G (up to 8mbps) while my other phone (moto e 4G) goes up to 30 mbps. And if I choose LTE/CDMA it goes offline .
And worse, it always trying to activate and receiving the message 'activation not completed'.
I wonder if I root it could it be turned from N920P into N920i or any other.... is it possible?

Have you figured this out yet? For me, you had to choose LTE from the "Bearer" setting in the APN settings. Not only Network Mode.

You need to put it back to auto after you get lte to work. This allows it to switch between the two when you are making calls or online. If you keep it in lte/cdma, your gsm carrier will not wotk.

This worked for perfectly for me! Thanks foruonlyfrom007 for the advice to set it to automatic. Now i have LTE and can make calls with no issues! And by the way all you have to do is download package disabler from playstore to stop the activation, no root necessary

Yes I was able to get mms working perfectly simply by adding port 80 as the mms port.
My only problem now is that mms only works when I am not connected to wifi. If I receive any mms I have to disconnect from wifi and then tap it to receive it.
If anyone knows how to make mms work with wifi too, please comment and add @textbook.
