I'd venture a guess that it's flashed to Metro PCS because it's blacklisted by Verizon. Just a thought.

[Q] Flashed LG LS970 & LS980 3G Connection Problem

Hello. I flashed a Sprint LG G2 to PagePlus. The Flash goes well and All my items stick. But the problem is the connection is unstable. I'm noticed with both the LS970 and LS980 the same problem happens. The mobile data will first connect with 1x then to Evdo. Then the network will disconnect. I flash phones to pageplus all the time and they all have 3G - EVDO. But the unstable 3G is crazy. It will not stay connected. Why are the new LG phones like this? Has anyone encountered this problem and found a solution? I look forward to people's reply because I know a lot of people have run into this problem. Thanks in advanced.

Hello. Absolutely! That's my personal phone! Just make sure when you flash it, you leave the SIM card in the phone. 3g data works, mms, etc. Good luck.

The flashing method is same for all phones. Doesn't matter what kind. I'll give you a good starting place. Viper32 has a forum on here helping people with flashing. And there are plenty of forums with a ton of info. Good luck.
this g2 has been a nightmare for me. i have gotten used to samsung just flash and forget about it, only thing break flash on them is ota. this g2 though..... :/
I'm having same issue. unstable 3g
Sprint probs
What happened with mines is similar but I had the att variant
So I flashed mime to sprint and it worked but only on their 1x network and 3g towers in order for 4g to work and there new spark network I had to get a Sim card and pop it in and boom 4g LTE worked the sec I put it in

Any issues with losing call history at all, after flashing it to PagePlus?

No. Call history has nothing to do with flashing. The only way you can lose call history is if you factory reset the phone or you personally delete the call history yourself.

Actually its a known issue with this phone, that it looses its call history when flashed.
It has something to do with the Stock ROM release
I have the same issue.
Also I get a "MIP : 89" error sometimes.
Also, I have a system update downloaded waiting to install but not sure if it'll kill my flash so I've been scared to hit the button.

Is your phone the LS980? I had a customer who updated his LS980 this past week and I had to re-flash his phone. You'll probably have to re-flash as well.

Verizon HTC 10 on ATT?

It is my understanding that the Verizon HTC 10 is unlocked for other carriers. So I'm hoping that someone here can tell me if the bands in the phone work well with ATT service.

I have not tested it out personally but I am 99% sure it will work.
I had a Verizon M9 (which is unlocked just as the HTC 10) and gave it to my girlfriend about 2 months ago. I only had to change the APN settings and she gets flawless service.

For the correct APN settings (for any carrier), search google for "*insert carrier* APN settings".

ATT and Tmobile sim cards work i guess, does LTE work too? Is there a way to flash an international firmware and covert it to a real unlocked phone without verizon traces?
Not working! It shows error as soon as I try to activate it

Do at your own risk.
You should be able to s-off, supercid and flash att ruu, converting to 100% at device.

The unlocked ruu would work at the very least. Just need to change mid and Cid and flash the unlocked ruu. No doubt in my mind it would work then.

I use Cricket which is a sub-brand of ATT. I am able to receive decent speeds, but not anything over 8 Mbps due to my plan.
If you are not able to use an AT&T SIM on your Verizon HTC 10, you can always flash the unlocked firmware.
You can follow the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-10/how-to/guide-aosp-roms-booting-vzw-10-via-t3487903
Since you will not need to use a Verizon SIM, you can skip the part about deleting the .img files.

Verizon ROM working on G935P!

So my phone is S7 Edge G935P. Playing around on it trying to get the trifecta of root, rom, and data. So I odined the G935P.I3 and it worked, then rooted, no data. Then I flashed a Verizon ROM just to see if it would work it did, I have data, but is there a way to activate my sprint phone with a Verizon ROM? The rom I used is stang5litre edition 5.0 s7e by blackrain. Everything works except for the Verizon stuff obviously, so I'm just curious if it is possible to change those things to sprint?
Thanks

And can you flash back to Sprint after doing this?

Yes you can go back to stock or universal, but I'm still trying to figure out how to activate the device under sprint after root. If anyone can help that world be great..
Activation just sets your apn/profile.
Have you tried adding a sprint apn?

I was going to try this also but never had the time. You should go to the rom thread and ask stang5litre and ask him. He is cool and well help as much as he can. He might have a legit answer?
If I put this rom on a sprint phone could I use it on a verizon network?

You will still need a donor Verizon phone to activate the Sim. You will only have lte coverage as cdma on Verizon still requires imei number. I would just flash the U firmware if you are thinking of going... Same service minus the bloat ware

(Request) Missing MSL Need Sprint Radio/Baseband

I was on the stock rooted rom for the LS997 not the US996 variant I flashed the Lineage rom for it and since then my baseband was different and my device has forgotten its MSL code. So if someone could please upload the stock radio/baseband zip you'd be a life saver. Without this I get data connectivity but no call or sms abilities. Thank you in advance.
PS. if there is an easier way to fix this do leave it in the comments section. Thanks.
You will need to flash a stock rom.(the sprint NSS rom will work) and update your profile/prl.

I'm currently on the NSS rom. Sorry I signed into google and it put me on a different account. I've tried updating PRL and Profile many times I've just been unable to connect to sprint due to lack of an MSL, a tech said that's the stock baseband in a zip will fix it. I have a different baseband than all the other LS997's.

Alright update #2 I've got data working still but the device has forgotten it's msl and sprint gave me the number. It doesn't work in the dialer code and even worse I can't check for PRL and Profile updates or even software updates because the device only works on sprints lte network as if it were a gsm device. I have a different baseband than any other sprint V20 and would really appreciate some help.
I NEED LG V20 (LS997) MSL...i dont have sprint account!

Flashing T-mobile firmware on Verizon s10+

Hello,
I had a s8+ and I was able to re-brand it from AT&T to T-mobile; although I don't remember the exact process. I recently got an S10+ Verizon from my boss and I have it carrier unlocked and running on T-mobile. I was wondering if you can flash T-Mobile branded firmware so I can get access to WiFi Calling and the built in visual voicemail. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Yes you can. I don't think there is a inbuilt visual voicemail on the t mobile branded devices. I had to install from the play store.

Yes, I have done it. I ended up going to non-branded firmware. As soon as you put your sim in, it installs visual voicemail....at least it did for me.

Correct. You can find the download links here on the forum or use SamFirm to download the firmware and odin to flash.

Thank you. Do you know if the hardware is the same for the verizon and tmobile phones? with it just unlocked and with the tmobile chip the signal wasn't as high. I'm hoping when I flash it with t-mobile firmware it flashes the radios to use the tmobile bands as well.

Yes, you get the correct bands. I compared before and after.
