my 3G doesn't work on 4.3 or 4.4.2. But I have another phone (sony) with 4.0.4 and my 3G works.

Have you try to copy your APN from your sony to your moto ?

yes i did, but to no avail.
I am suspecting Moto G is a 4G phone, but my SIM is still on older 3G network.

There's really nothing in common between Moto G and Sony devices, so the problem isn't due to the OS, but your phone it seems. Did you try to interfere with the kernel, the Rom or something like that?

I can't solve your problem, but if I was in your shoes I'd first try your carrier and I'd have a look at modems.
If you have your phone in wcdma auto or preferred, and your 3g service is weak it will stick to 2g.
Try *#*#4636#*#* and toying with different modes.
Btw, whats's your phone version? Country? Carrier?

Here i am, using a sony phone that runs 4.2/4.4
using 3g works perfectly, even H+ appears
on a serious note, get your sim checked, and also, did you cut the sim yourself or something?

Moto G xt1033 Australian SIM Network HELP!

Hi!
I have been trying a few custom android kit kat roms on my Moto G xt1033 and everything works great except the fact that my sim card isnt registered by the device, it has that 4 bar logo in the status bar but has no bars and is just a triangle and in the drop down menu it says no connection. My SIM is an Amaysim but sometimes on phones it will come up as YES OPTUS.
Please help and if anyone in australia/global would know how to fix or has this problem please dont be afraid to help as it is unfortunate for me now that i have to run stock 4.4.2 to have a working sim.
Thanks in advance!

amaysim works on the Optus network, it should show amaysim when updated.
Request a new SIM from amaysim if it's an old one, it's free. You can do it from your amaysim account.

its not that its a problem with the roms themselves like for some reason it doesnt work with them it gets picked up but no data signal but if i put back to stock 4.4.2 it works fine. The xt1033 model that australia only has is a dual sim version. I just want one sim working as i only use one.
i just need something for it to pick up a data signal, it doesnt even know what network to connect to in data settings.
someone else must have this issue.
Please help! :crying:

Moto g Dual Sim to gpe?

I'm planning on getting the moto G Dual Sim factory unlocked version and I was wondering if I can covert this to the gpe?
Does the dual Sim also work in the US to AT&T and T-Mobiles network?
If the GPE version is Dual-SIM as well, you can flash the official GPE ROM to get your Moto G a GPE-feel. Please note that this will void your warranty, so i wouldn't recommend it.
There's also the partitioning scheme, which I know that is different in the GPE version, but I don't know if that can break up your phone... So, it's up to you
About the networks, as far as I know if the device is factory unlocked, it will work in any network, someone please correct if I'm wrong.
Good luck!

Yes it will probably work but I'm worried about Internet connectivity. ?
Well, everything should work if the hardware is the same (which I think it is), but do a little search before doing it, it will be useful!

Probably the needed band is not supported in your country... I use the GPE firmware, that is a nice stock version of android, the lighter (official) and the first one that get updates. GPE supports both UMTS and HSPA+ bands, you could like it. If you need a custom rom I don't know...

Will have to wait to get home to check the Moto G that I bought from consumer cellular. I know that it is listed as a XT1034 on the back, but have not checked how it is identified by the computer. As for the baseband version, that does not have to match the actual phone model number.
My other Moto G (US GSM) from Motorola is a XT1034 yet also lists 1032 in the baseband version number. However, the computer identifies it as XT1034. http://i.imgur.com/faQSiBU.png
Side Note: Does the Hotspot/Tethering option work on your consumer cellular Moto G? Mine does not list the option, but has an app that opens the menu, but nothing displays.
Thanks for the reply. I will check that once i get home. Also i am thinking build prop maybe control the model number that pops up on pc. Possible??

The Consumer Cellular XT1034 Moto G is showing as XT1032 on my computer as well.
I think build.prop control that. Does consumer xt1034 works fine on tmo? If you know. Maybe?

Works on T-Mobile
Yeah, once I got it unlocked, it works with my T-Mobile SIM. Had to update the APN, but so far no issues with Texts, Calls, or MMS.
The only feature not working so far is the Tethering/Hotspot.
U get hspa? Please let me know. I got another one just delivered. Ill be home in like 10 mins

Yes, I get HSPA on it.

What you want to do is, unlock it first, then flash it with Motorola 4.4.x AWSRetail version, this can be done via fastboot, no need to unlock bootloader, once done reboot it and it should prompt you to install latest version. That is all. You are set. You can also convert to GPE, but you'll lose the 1700aws support, thus losing hspa on T-Mobile

Which specific version did you end up flashing? Did you download from here http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=14 or have a different source?

Thanks,
If you are you can still use aws, since consumer cellular have both bands. If you dont care about aws band, you can convert to gpe.. But not huge diff.. Moto updates week after google pushes release

LG G3 AT&T D850 3G not working in Pakistan

I have recently bought a used LG G3 D850 AT&T model. The problem is that I'm only getting GPRS or 2g network instead of 3G. I have changed the "Preferred Network mode" to GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto mode but still to no avail. The phone is unrooted atm. I'd be grateful if anybody can help me!
I also have att d850.3g works great.make sure you are in 3g coverage. Because 3g in Pakistan is awful.and if c you are in 3g converge ,walk around your area to check again while using 2g.it will automatically switch to 3g.
Btw which Network are you using?
I have lg g3 850 at&t and I am having the same problem 3g and 4g not working i tried on warid zong and ufone sim but didt work out
andriod 5.0 is running on my phone.Is it possible to upgrade it to adnroid 6.0 marsmallow

You can't upgrade it to stock marshmallow.as firmware OTA requires AT&T sim card to upgrade.
You can have coustom marshmallow.first root your phone and then flash any Rom for d850.

If someone brings AT&T sim for you.It would not solve your problem.As there is no service of AT&T in Pakistan. You can use Custom Rom like Fulmics till someone releases flashable Stock Marshmallow.
And yes,3g and 4g works on marshmallow.
My 3g is working on at&t g3 clody rom 2.5. Go to setting/Tethering&Networks/mobilenetworks/acesspointnames. And set up a new apn. Every SIM has it's own apn.

Well a few days back i got a used LG G3 AT&T showing software version D85010n in settings . It was already rooted (checked from root checker) with Kitkat 4.4.2. But when i rebooted it yesterday in recovery mode, it showed LS990ZV6 under Android System Recovery.
That means i got a converted G3....... Is there a way to install any custom rom in it? If so, which rom should i choose, D850 or Ls990? or should i avoid installing any custom rom in it?
I installed CM 13 rom in my LG G3 850 (020F) (from stock lollipop to Fulmics 6.1 and then to CM due to no data connection in Fulmics).. all is fine but the data connection only keeps to 'E', it never goes to H or 3G. .. the settings are right (APN set right for service provider, preferred network set to 3G) .. what could be the reason ? do i need to change the modem of 3G as wel ?

if u got ls990, cloudyg3 is the best rom i tried so far
1) first u need to root ( no need to if its already rooted).
2) then flash twrp via flashify or autorec.
3) download cloudyg3 (u can search for it here on xda)
4) wipe system, cache, dalvik, data partitions.
5) install cloudyg3 (make sure u check ls990 in aroma installer otherwise u will stuck in a bootloop)
thats it, all your problems will be solved, data will be working fine with H+
signals are good as i have tested on many ls990s.
i m using CM13.1 (android 6.0.1) on my LG 850 .. So far its doing good ... it shows E logo when data is enabled but the internet speed is good and reasonable ... so, i consider this E as 3G here in Pak.
The performance of this ROM is good / speedy and battery is reasonably well.
I hav lg g3 850 and my cell fon not shifting on 2g network if 3g network not availing and remains offlin to network iam using jazz and updated to 6.0
Any one tel me slution

How did you convert your D850 to 3G because I don't have option to change preferred network it's working only 2G please help. Its AT&T phone and I'm using zong.

It automatically converts to 3g where 3g coverage is available. Btw you should try fulmics ROM. It's the best out there.
