Stuck in 2G mode? - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My phone is running Cm 7.0.3 and i'm running only in 2G mode. I used to be able to reboot and get back to HSPNA, but that is failing now. I updated to see if that would help and that did not.
I checked the settings to make sure it wasn't set to "use only 2g" and it's not.
Any ideas?
I tried to wipe and flash to Royal Ginger as well and that fails.
Edit.
Well that was nerve racking, I flashed my radio and still stuck at 2G.

Try dialing *#*#4636#*#* into your dial pad. Once the menu comes up go to "Phone Info " then scroll down and go into "Set preferred network type " and choose WCDMA only or preferred.
Hope this helps

Silly question but have you tried a battery pull?

not getting 3g at all after rom update

as above it wont recieve 3g been into settings mobile networks on.
I'm having some issues as well. While I am getting a 3G connection, it often drops to EDGE suddenly. This even happens when I'm at home - and home being down town in a big city with constant 3G pre-update.
Asked HTC support. They told me to contact HTC support. True story.
Thinking I might install a custom rom and/or change radio. Any advice?

yes, if you have updated with the latest modaco, then probably your apn settings have been erased.
You'll have to input the apn manually to enable the 3g network

How should i do that?
Could you please advise me and give me the proper steps to take...
Thank you in advanced.
i had similar problems and nothing helped. so at the end i did the following:
- complete data wipe via fastboot menu
- update.zip with modaco 2.2
- rebbot system, checked if apn settings are correct and working (3G symbol in notification bar)
- update.zip with modaco 2.3 (NO wipe!!)
so now everything works as it should.

[Q] "Emergency calls only" after RUU downgrade, root, Cyanogen 6.1 install

Hello,
I've just rooted my Legend for the first time. To do this, I downgraded to 1.31 via RUU, then rooted using the Modaco guide.
After the RUU downgrade, I noticed that the phone said "Emergency Calls Only". Being a complete noob, I continued along with the rooting process figuring that the root flash and later mod flash might fix the problem.
After the root, I still had emergency service only. Being excited that the root worked, I went ahead and installer Rom Manager, rebooted into Clockworkmod Recovery and installed Cyanogen 6.1.
Still "emergency calls only".
I looked in Network Operators to see if my provider (Bell Canada) was visible. Sure enough, it was there. I tried to join the mobile network but the device just sits there spinning until it times out. I set the correct APN settings, but of course that didn't help - I basic GSM service doesn't work, let alone 3G.
I then found an app called Secret Settings, which gives access to a bunch of nifty hidden configuration options. I worked my way through each of the preferred network types. None of them worked.
I assume that this has something to do with the radio firmware flashed during the downgrade, although it looked like radio was also flashed during root.
So here I sit with a fancy WiFi-only device that used to be a phone. Can this be fixed? What are my options?
Please help a very technical but new-to-android-modding noob out. Thanks in advance!
Well, I seem to have fixed my own problem. Awesome!
Bell Canada HTC Legend users - if you've downgraded, rooted and are finding you have no service, or emergency only service...
Download "Secret Setting" from the market.
Tap Phone Information
Scroll down to "Set preferred network type"
Select "GSM/CDMA auto (PRL)"
Exit to the home screen
In your phone's Settings menu, select Wireless and Networks
Select Mobile Networks -> Network Operators
Make sure you're connected to Bell
Reboot
Dial *#*#4636#*#* on your Phone, it does the same thing as "Secret Settings" and doesn't require you to install anything.
It's been listed a number of times on the forums. You also don't need to reboot to change to GSM/CDMA auto PRL, although you probably want to select WCDMA only.

No Mobile Data after flashing latest LeeDroid ROM

I just flashed to the lastest LeeDroid ROM. I love it! However, there is no mobile data. I cannot make or receive calls. The mobile data setting is greyed out, I cannot change anything there.
I've tried searching for similar problems with leeDroid, but I have not found much. Does anyone know how I can fix this??
HTC Inspire 4G on AT&T network.
Full wipe and re-flash, and see if that works.
If not it's possible you have an incompatible radio/ril/rom combination; make sure you use the recommended radio for your rom.
I try to avoid flashing radios as much as possible because if something goes wrong, it will permanently brick - so read all the instructions *very* carefully and only do it if you have to!
I installed that ROM too and lost my data connection. But there is a patch, V5.1.1 that'll correct this problem. Just download and flash it in cwm.

Open the dialpad,
key in : *#*#4636#*#*, as soon as you key in last *, Setting Menu will pops up.
>> Click "Phone Information'
Scroll down.... until you see "Set preferred network type", probably set to "WCDMA preferred".
If you are on GSM network, change to "GSM auto (PRL).
Out from the menu... then see whether mobile signal on...
to make sure, re-boot.
Some rom, even set "WCDMA preferred" as a default, still can connect to GSM network some doesn't.... So manually set as above will be the best way, I think.
Hope can be solved, buddy.
sounds like the radio needs a re-flash, flash the recommended or latest one.
Install Latest update on your Rom
zunaedsaki is cooking

2. Copy down the information.
3. Insert your sim back into your phone.
4. Go to APN settings and manually type all the information

Or extract the modem file from stock firmware
Similiar Issue
Here's some steps I went through to investigate this issue. Don't get your hopes up, I don't have a solution.
You can use service mode to lock the phone to LTE and get a better view of what's going on.
Dial *#0011# to get you into service mode. Then you want to go up a menu (there's a bug here). Hit menu>back (nothing will happen), then menu>keyinput then type 1 and hit ok. Select option [1]>[6]>[2] from here you can lock to LTE by hitting [4]>[2] (Telstra run LTE on Band 3 = 1800MHz). Reboot for good measure.
Exit and Dial *#0011#. If your phone works, you're now looking at some low level LTE RF stats. I have 2 GS4's which are showing me strong coverage. If you phone is like my third GS4, it'll say No Service.
I can lock that dodgy one to GSM or WCDMA with no issue.
So, off I go to flash the modem to within an inch of it's life...

Moto X Play India version accidentally changed

Hello guys, I wanted to change my data setting to wcdma(3G) only because my phone keeps on reverting to 2G so I did some research and found an application in playstore called Network . I was going through it and there was this button called Radio band if I'm not mistaken , I pressed it and instead of pressing the back button I chose USA band, now my phone is not able to receive any network, please help me I really need to get my phone working again, if there is any way to revert it back .Please leave some comments . Thank you
I am having same problem. Please reply if you got anything.
instant solution...factory wipe it from recovery.
otherwise you have to do it by dialing *#*#4636#*#* . you have to select wcdma or your preferred network..otherwise easiest way is factory wiping.
edit: after dialing go to phone info then top right corner 3 dots and select radio bands and if USA band is active deactivate it.

Try reverting it back from that same app

No way to revert from same app. I was forced to re flesh official ROM on my device. It's working fine now.
