I would have rather posted this in the forum thread for Cyanogen 11 for the m4, but I cannot post there.
HTC One Mini (m4) had AT&T stock software (Android 4.?) with Sense 5. I installed the latest stable Cyanogen 10.2 build using TWRP. I decided to use a different phone so I didn't try anything after installing 10.2. So RUU flashed "RUU_M4_UL_K44_SENSE60_MR_Cingular_US_4.13.502.3_Radio_1.29.40g.00.19_10.32.40.1115L_release_385202_signed_with_hboot" (which is AT&T Stock Android 4.4.2). I also installed an AT&T Sense 6 update and relocked the bootloader. Later, I decided to use the Mini. So I unlocked the bootloader again (which wipes all user data), and installed TWRP recovery again. I did a factory reset from TWRP, and cleared the cache and dalvik. I installed Cyanogen cm-11-20150111-NIGHTLY-m4. I wiped the cache and dalvik again for good measure. I then installed the google apps for KitKat. The install went perfectly and I have not had ANY issues with the ROM at all, save one.
There is an AT&T LTE tower right off the exit ramp where I work. I attempted to toggle on LTE using the quick settings in the status bar. The toggle remains on, but I cannot receive LTE signal. In Settings -> Mobile networks, I am unable to select "LTE (preferred)" unless I first put the phone in airplane mode. LTE will remain checked, but I observed when I am near that LTE tower, the setting reverts to "3G". If I enter phone setup via *#*#4636*#*#, i cannot make any setting other than WCDMA preferred unless I turn off the radio. Again, when i get near the tower, the setting will revert to WCDMA only. THe Advance Signal Status app shows n/a for everything under LTE (4G) Signal Info.
I installed the ROM without a simcard. I'm on an LTE-enabled plan. Another stock device on my plan can receive LTE. I've set up my APN to the letter per AT&T's website. I even added fota like the stock rom had (even tho i'll never be doing fota updates w/ a custom ROM).
I've read on the net it may be a bad sim card, but i had the same problem on an LG Nitro running cm 11 latest nightly (brand new LTE enabled sim). I've also read that maybe AT&T has to specifically input my phone's IMEI for LTE to work (this was my wife's company phone before tho; i'm sure the IMEI was in the system). Anyhow place greater weight to the words of XDA over other sites.
Could this be some type of baseband issue?
Hi,
You will need to register on XDA and ask for help in the thread you downloaded the rom from. Members under 10 posts can post, it will be directed automatically to the devices Q&A section, along will all other new members postings.
Rom issues should always be reported in rom threads. As well as reading the opening post for known issues, and the last several pages to see if your issue has been discussed.
Good luck!

I ordered an unlocked Rogers HTC One X to use on at&t, which I received yesterday (Wednesday). When I got the device, I inserted my SIM card, added the "at&t pta" APN (which I found here on XDA) and connected just fine to at&t's LTE network. No troubles through the rest of the day.
This morning (Thursday), I noticed I only had "4G" signal, i.e. not connected to LTE. I checked in the mobile data settings, under Network Mode, and saw that the GSM/WCDMA auto was checked. I switched that over to the GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto, LTE showed up in the status bar, but I had zero data connection. This has been the case all day today. The LTE symbol is there, but only the Up arrow blinks between white and black; the Down arrow does not light up at all, so no data on LTE.
- HSPA data works fine
- my at&t plan is definitely provisioned for LTE (I've been using a couple of other LTE devices in the last few months with no trouble)
- LTE data definitely worked yesterday (speedtest showed over 15mbps down and 11 up)
- I did put my SIM card back into my Galaxy Nexus for a couple of hours last night before putting it back into the One X (I'm thinking this is somehow related, but can't figure out)
- I've tried a couple other at&t APN settings (Cingular wap - fine for 3G data, but no LTE, 'Phone', again fine for 3G data, no LTE)
- My SIM card is indeed a micro-SIM and is only a couple of months old, at most
Any ideas? I'm pretty much out of ways to troubleshoot at this point, so any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
I think there is a specific AT&T APN that you need to plug in to get LTE enabled. Did you make sure your SIM is LTE compatible? Are you running the stock Rogers ROM or did you install a custom ROM? Is your bootloader unlocked? Have you tried updating the radio to AT&T default radio?
Just wanted to knock some of those questions out there.
I think the AT&T PTA APN is the LTE setting that's out there. I haven't come across any others.
I'm completely stock (it is a Rogers rom), haven't yet rooted or unlocked the bootloader or anything like that. Nothing has been flashed.
Actually, I just realized I ran the software update last night before bed, which put me on software version 1.94.631.3. Android version 4.0.3, Sense 4.0. Now I'm willing to bet this is the cause of my trouble. But HSPA working and LTE not working is still puzzling.
I wonder if it's the radio version not being 100% compatible. Are you willing to unlocking and flashing a custom Rom based on an at&t Rom? That could rule out a software issue assuming your apn settings are good.
I have the Telus version and had lte issues until just recently on CleanROM.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
I was thinking about going through the unlocking/flashing process this weekend actually, as I'm pretty sure there is an issue with the radio like you said.
Just need to find some good tutorials to get me started.
Thanks!
Check out the guide I have in my signature. It's for the Telus variant, but the Spoof-CID would work with the Rogers version as well. Also, the Rogers version is, by default, unlockable though HTCDev.com so you're good there. The step by step instructions on HTCDev is pretty straightforward, but having a tool like the Spoof-CID program helps in getting the required information sooner.
Definitely read up on it and ask as many questions as possible. Good luck!
Great, I'll check out your link.
Thanks for the help.
So I managed to get LTE working!
I figured I would at least flash a different radio.
- Started out with the htcdev.com unlock method, which was pretty much painless.
- Used the method in Athrun88's signature to get TWRP flashed over to the One X
- Downloaded (and flashed) one of the CM10 nightlies
- Downloaded (and flashed) the AT&T 1.85 radio file
- Dialed *#*#INFO#*#* from the deviced and selected GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto network mode
- Got LTE!
Flashing CM10 might not have been completely necessary of course, but I couldn't resist, and it's been pretty great so far.
Make sure you go and knock out the superCID hack too. That way when things go wrong, u can use the 1.85 at&t ruu and skip all that in the future:beer:
Hi SBA1226
Thanks for sharing. I had the same problem after doing the Rogers update and thought the At&t LTE service was out in my area.
I had flashing experience with my gnex, but never dealt with HTC phone. What exactly is that Spoof-CID.bat procedure as described in Athrun88's guide? Was that the guide that you follow? Would really appreciate if someone can point me to a step-by-step (maybe with picture ) guide.
Another question I have is do you loose functionality like wifi hotspot or media link HD when you flash custom rom like CM10 or cleanrom 4.5 DE?
Thanks.
I did not use the spoof-CID in Athrun88's guide, but I did use the rest of the guide to get TWRP recovery flashed to my One X.
You'll want to start out by going to the htcdev.com site, registering, and following the step by step instructions there to get your bootloader unlocked. They make it really easy to complete.
Once this is done, you should still be in fast boot mode, so just follow Athrun88's guide to flash TWRP, and you're on your way to flashing ROMs.
I can't speak for CleanROM, but I've had no issues with wifi tethering in CM10.
Also, there are quite a few guides on YouTube that I found really helpful.
Good luck!
Thanks. I will try it this weekend.
By the way, is there a simple way to back to stock? Thanks.
I was in the same situation with a Rogers One XL, no LTE on CM10, and here's what I have done so far to get LTE working, though I'm not quite done.
1. RUU back to 1.94 Rogers (from this thread): http://forums.team-nocturnal.com/sho...X-XL-LTE-RUU-s
2. Unlocked the bootloader using the official process, flashed TWRP
3. Flashed the stock rooted 1.85 ATT ROM from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671237
4. Flashed the ATT 1.85 firmware: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1694012
I had LTE now.I then flashed to ATT 2.20 ROM & FW (not RUU) and LTE still worked.
I assume it was a RIL/FW compatibility/requirement for ATT LTE, so going to CM10 should work, but I have not tried.
Hope that helps some.
This is a patch to fully enable the GSM on CDMA Global phones.
The Global Phones are phones with CDMA and GSM modems but that are usually configured to primarly work on CDMA network and at least to be able to call on GSM network.
The patch is working on every Stock Rom, on every AOSP Rom and on every Android version.
If you are successfully using this patch please comment the thread with your phone model.
This patch will enable:
- GSM/UMTS -> [GSM auto (PRL)] in Testing menù
- SMS
- MMS
- 3G Data
- USSD Code
- Call Forwarding
- Testing menù to manage the baseband accessible dialing the code *#*#4636#*#* (locked on Verizon Phones)
How to install:
- Copy the .zip file to the external memory or memory card
- Reboot your phone and enter on your custom recovery
- From the Install menu select the .zip file and instal withotut signature verification on your Rom
Risk of briking:
- no one: during installation the installer checks everything is ok and stop installation in case of problem; in case of problems after installation the old settings can be restored by simply installing the patch a second time. In this way you can test the gsm settings without any risk.
Advice post-installation:
- If the patch has not been installed on a clean system then you have to do a factory reset
- On the AOSP Roms the Patch is persistent, when you will update your rom you do not have to reinstall the patch
- *#*#4636#*#* -> Phone info -> Set prefered network type -> GSM auto (PRL)
How to uninstall:
- To uninstall the patch you have to reinstall it a second time from the custom recovery
The patch should work on every CDMA Global Phone.
The patch should work on every Rom.
Download the patch here
If someone successfully use this patch on some other model please leave a comment in this page, so I will be able to update the above list.
If someone has edited this patch to support some other phone please inform me so as not to waste information and in this way I can update the patch.
Any help is precious.
HOW TO POST REQUEST FOR HELP:
You have to entirely read this thread, I do NOT answer redundant question.
If you want to know if the patch is compatible with a phone then you have to attach the /system/build.prop in your post in this thread because i don't know all phones. (You can also send me the build.prop as attachment via the contact section of my site.)
If you installed the patch and there are problems you have to attach (and do not post) your /system/build.prop and your /system/build.prop.bak.
I do not answer to requests for help in private, I have neither the time nor the interest in doing so.
Any doubts, questions or requests must be posted in this thread in order to answer a single time and help everyone.

Everyone can help me to extend support for more phones.
Thanks.
Patch updated for better GSM support.
works flawless on my Razr xt912 in Pakistan using Gsm network.
Thanks a lot man.:good:
Available a new update to solve problems with apns on 4.3.x roms.
It works on my Droid razr Maxx xt912 with CM10.2-20131020-NIGHTLY-spyder ROM, my phone is using GSM carrier
New version working well on Vodafone Ireland with cyanogenmod 10.1.3 on XT912.
This version also leaves the ROM version intact - older version for 10.1.2 seemed to update the string.
The version that changed the string was only for the xt894 with cm 10.1.2, that was the first version.
Works great on my XT912 with MIUI v5. Thanks.

I may have misinterpreted the topic I guess, but did install this while I was overseas with my Verizon phone, everything was fine but now it seems as I am unable to find 3G network back in the US. I have changed the specs from GMS/CDMA , etc on the settings but no signal of 3G/LTE.
Anyone has had this issue before? Any way to turn it back to normal so that I can get data here in the US?

In US you can not use the GSM on many Verizon phones, you have to use the CDMA and you have to restore build.props and apns list.
The patch has been successfully tested on droid bionic xt875 in and outside the US and on droid 3 xt862.

Mentor I have a question.
I flashed on XT912-Spyder CM 10.1.3 but even before I did flash I would have no service at all , I have Euorpean sim card which has active roaming.
When I put it into iPhone 4S it shows T-Mobile USA but in settings T-Mobile.Poland settings so it roams, it gets signal,receivies texts.
IN XT912 it only shows phone number in settings that is all , i flashed your patch.. I will do it again maybe it will help I don't know.
Can you help me? if I get sim to work I will have my buddy replace screen,battery everything and put this phone into use for someone.
You could try installing the patch on clean system before first boot without restore any backup.
Let's me know.

EDIT:
Same thing I just did what you told me it instantly showed the European phone number Poland area code +48.
Signal Strength : 0 dBm 99asu
I can't understand how when I put it in Verizon 4S which was Unlocked by VZW it shows signal,receives texts etc.. the droid razr after JB update was suppsed to be unlocked for European use for example.
It even synced local time in Poland which is +6 hours! it seems to pull up number and time but no signal
Is there anything else I can try?
In your recovery: factory reset, wipes, install patch and then reboot phone.

Yep did that and still no ago same thing.
Before I got the phone (Got it for free)
when I first put AT&T simcard it showed me roaming triangle for few seconds ever since that time the signal just does not work.. at all.
The xt 912 is GSM locked in the US and could be locked for AT&T sim outside US too, you could try with another sim.

Well yes I know so why when I put in T-Mobile Poland sim card which roams on T-Mobile USA it shows nothing but only phone number? it's weird.
Works fine in 4S unlocked by Verizon.
Hi everybody,
I have been following XDA for years now and have always been able to find answers to my questions here regarding flashing for a HTC Desire, Galaxy SII or my current Galaxy S4 I9505, rooted running a 4.3 GPE rom. Baseband is XXUDMB. Recovery is CWM 6.0.4.4.
After following the thread GOOGLE EDITION 4.4.2 by Danvdh, Kryten2k35 & Ktoonsez I decided to flash. Love this rom, it's superfast!!! One thing didn't work for me: the phone kept losing connection with my Dutch mobile carrier Vodafone (no data, phone calls not possible), especially after locking the screen. To my understanding the rom does not ship with LTE of GSM modems, so it should not be the problem that a 4.4 LTE modem causes sound, data or WiFi problems when on the "old" bootloader (pre KNOX). After flashing the baseband still shows XXUDMB.
I tried *#*#4636#*#* and setting network type to GSM. However, the menu is not the same as my current 4.3 and the option LTE/GSM auto (PRL) is not available.
Reverted back to my 4.3 rom for now, but really hope somebody knows how to solve the issue.
After months of being stuck on my Verizon Moto G with a locked bootloader, I finally managed to obtain freedom via the recent update to the SunShine app from jcase. My phone was having some issues prior to unlocking, and it took me several hours of labor and installing/reinstalling things to finally get TWRP and any ROM going properly. I've worked with Android tablets and custom ROMs before, but this is my first time on a Verizon phone.
I managed to get the N5X ROM installed and running, but I couldn't seem to resolve issues with data/mms, which I presume are APN related; trying to enter new APN settings in that ROM wouldn't save for whatever reason, either. For now, I'm back on an optimized stock 4.4.4 image until I can get that figured out.
My question: Is there any list of custom ROMs that do specifically work with a Verizon CDMA/XT1028 Moto G? Does anyone have a guide to getting these ROMs working on Verizon prepaid service, including any APN adjustments that need to be made? Thanks.
Followup: Still trying to figure this out, but the N5X ROM will give me working data if I enable Data Roaming. I've attempted to update the PRL for Verizon via *228, but the phone status still shows as roaming even though my PRL has been updated, displaying my network as T-CDMA 64. Is this simply an issue with my phone not properly identifying roaming/non-roaming due to the custom ROM? Verizon has the best coverage in my area, so I want to make sure it is connecting to the proper towers (and I'm not ACTUALLY roaming). Thanks.
I'm having a super weird issue with my OPO. No matter what I do (install different OS, flash new modem, complete wipe including formatting drives to a different format type) I keep getting two AT&T connections on my phone. *Can't post image due to post restrictions*
I am using a WIND sim from Canada with roaming in the US. I used to be able to connect to my choice of either AT&T or Tmobile. Now when I try and connect to one of those carriers, it flashes registered on network but then does not change what network it is registered on. I've tried disconnecting from the network and then trying to connect. Nothing! The only network it will let me connect to is that weird extra AT&T network, and all call through it have no caller ID, just says call from AT&T.
Any ideas of what this could be would really help me out. I'm all out of ideas
Update - After uninstalling and re-installing everything I could think of, I am now running on CM11. If I update through OTA to CM13 the problem returns.
Update 2 - In case anyone else encounters this issue, after a whole lot of work, including softbricking my phone, I managed to get it working. You must install TWRP Materialized and install the 44S baseband. No other recovery will work, must be Materialized. After I installed the 44S baseband I updated to Omnirom 6.0 and everything is working great!
