Hello All,
I'm using the One E8 with the following combination:
Slot 1 - Reliance CDMA UIM
Slot 2 - AirTel SIM
My requirement is to use the Reliance connection for voice and AirTel for both voice and data.
Having said that, I've selected Slot 2 to be my preferred data slot and have the default APN settings.
The Slot 2 is just not getting H or H+ (i.e. 3G signals) at all.
I'd read a couple of forums which say
"SIM 1 has 3G but SIM 2 only supports EDGE speeds"

Please help me out in getting my requirement work well.
Many Thanks,
Vinay
Yes only SIM 1 has 3G
Could you please send me link to your installed rom?

Thank you.
I also checked with their technical support team.
It seems that Slot-1 can do 3G but Slot-2 can do 2G only.
In my case, I'll have to go back to Airtel and disable 3G and enable EVDO services with Reliance which is used in my Slot-1.

This ain't a Custom Rom; It's a normal stock version.
Dear @vinay.habib yes I knew that I have HTC one E8 M8SD China version and i had a problem with CDMA uim slot 1 was not accepted but when installing custom rom gsm/gsm both working well so I spent a lot of time to find another version supports CDMA but nothing till now could please send me any link for a custom rom support CDMA or if possible to send me a TWRP backup of your stock rom thats will make me very happy.

ansi_11111,
I understand your problem here...
But it might take me sometime to create a TWRP backup of my ROM as I'm to tied up with things at the moment.
Will notify you once done.
Dear all!
Thanks for the ones who tried helping me out here.
I now have my worries addressed very well.
Slot 1 - CDMA (carrier - Reliance, India)
Slot 2 - GSM (carrier - Airtel, India)
The slot 1 now has EvDo-rev.B activated and the data speed is just amazing!
The slot 2 had 3G activated, but now that data connection is taken care with slot 1, I'm gonna terminate my 3G services and continue with EvDo-rev.B.
Must say, E8 is such a masterpiece! :good:

I got myself a new nano-SIM from Reliance (the CDMA carrier) for slot 1 as the one I'd got cut into nano-size was too old.
And also got the EvDo services activated on my number.
Ergo, connection succeeded.
This is only for the cdma version right? Or can a person use a cdma SIM in the HTC one e8 gsm gsm ?
Swap cards
Couldn't you have just swapped the cards around?
Guys, thanks for your suggestions, but sorry for replying late.

Yep, you're right - this is the CDMA version, precisely M8sD, Dual.
And a CDMA SIM can't be used in a GSM-GSM!

I would love to do a swap here.
But for my requirement with CDMA and GSM running...
One must do this:
Slot-1: CDMA
Slot-2: GSM
The swap won't work in this handset as Slot-1 supports CDMA/GSM combination and Slot-2 is only GSM.
Moreover, I'm now happy with Reliance EvDo.rev-B running at superb speeds with no need of Airtel 3G at all!

Well, the Sprint TP2 radio is locked from using United States GSM networks but it is unlocked for Non-US networks so in order for you to use a US GSM networks you would have to Pay for SIM/Security Unlocker and flash an unlocked radio.
Probably not what you wanted to hear.
Thanks,
Wich radio could i choose ?

You should do the SIM Unlock process first here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=578642
Then use the unlocked 1.96 or 2.32 Sprint radio from the thread the previous poster linked you to.

I have selected all LTE bands however, still not getting 4G signals, I am on Fluent Rom V6.1
However, when I was on "DOTTAT_VZWM8_S_OFF_SF_6.0_RUU" i was able to get 4G by following your post.

Try reseting through stock recovery, maybe your nv partition has corrupted. Genrally happens when you flash ROMs. After reseting check if 4g works.

I have a similar problem, I enabled the LTE bands I need and still get no working 4G. I have already factory-reset through stock recovery, but still no working 4G. So if you manage to get it working please let me know. Thanks!

Well carriers branded phones are locked to their original carrier. I guess you can sim-unlock it the usual way (using a sim-unlock code purchased from a reliable website of your choice e.g doctorsim.com).
And btw since your thread is a question, you should have posted this in the Q&A section
Oops, didnt read correctly
Call sprint customer service, ask to be transfered to 'international' , then ask the person to unlock your A9. Its that simple! I have a telcel sim in my sprint A9 right now!

Hello .
I got a jio sim 10 days ago but i was getting no service in my moto g3 and then i put that sim in samsung phone, it got activated and i was able to place calls on Samsung device but then i put it back in moto g3 and again its showing no service.
I thought the sim was faulty but today i got the new sim card from jio and it was again showing No service so i put it again in Samsung phone and was able to place calls. The problem is the jio sim isn't showing any service in my phone only.
I have tried flashing Reseruction remix 6.0.1, stock lolipop rom and also cm12 but i am not getting any service at all.
Please help me.

Bro make sure the barcode u used to collect to sim is must be generated from the phn ij which u r going to use the jio sim..or u hav to registered via ur imei for working jio sim....
I felt same problem...cos i tookba codr from one of my frnds but i got no signal like u...but then i use old jio apk and genrated code successfully from my g3 using stock imei...(previously i tried the imei from which the barcode generated but not works)....then got a new sim by biometric id thru adhar card number.....activated within 5 mins and got all msgs quickly.....

bro they didnt ask for any bar code , they just asked for my imei number and the sims are working in all other handsets except Moto G3. Actually my model number is XT1541 (UK 1gb edition) . I guess its 4g band doesnt work in india. I flashed stock MM too but still i am not getting any signal
hi , i also want to share my experience..
i got motoG3, i ported my sim to JIO
now i put the sim in Slot1 , i dont know why that didnt work.. ( i didnt get signal like you )
but when i changed it to Slot2 it started working...
maybe the reason is : i ported my sim which is in 2nd slot.. any kind of IMEI thing is stopping me to use that JIO sim in Slot1
hope this gives u some idea

Jio 4g bands are Band 3 (1800Mhz), Band 5 (850Mhz), Band 40 (2300Mhz).....but according to gsm arena i just saw ur lte bands are not matching to jio's ones....so i think in xt1541 u will get no signal

1. This is the wrong thread to post this.
2. The file you downloaded is stocks-modified, to restore stock, use firmware flashing guide by lost101 in general section.
3. All the information is properly documented there, make sure to search and read the posts before doing anything. Likely any query that you may have is already answered, if not, you an ask in that thread.

In my mob Jio doesn't work at home but when I go around city it works fine. Model is xt1550.
Strangely it works good at home on my brother's Samsung mobile.
I guess it's frequency problem, may be.
I thought moto mobile's signal reception would be good but unfortunately I got deeply disappointed.
