Forcing 1xRTT

I have crap service at my house, so after a phone call to Sprint they sent me an Airave for free and waived the monthly fee. Now as I understand the Airave is 1xRTT only, which is fine, whatever. But there is a slight EVDO signal that my Hero stupidly jumps on from time to time resulting in dropped calls and lost data connections because the EVDO signal fades in and out. Then it will go back full strength 1xRTT again. Rinse and repeat throughout the day.
I'm running Darchdroid 2.7. Is there a way to force 1xRTT?

Not without going back to a sprint based rom first. then you need your MSL. Call Sprint for that or Use alogcat. Calling sprint is easyer. AOSP roms don't have the ## sprint codes. ##DATA# is the one you need to force 1x only. Before you try all that try just keeping WIFI turned on at home. This should keep the phone from jumping off the Airave looking for 3G.

Hm, turning on Wifi didn't stop the signal from dropping to nothing from time to time like usual. Really don't like the Sprint based roms so I'm just going to live with it. Wish there was a way with AOSP roms though.

Flash a Sprint ROM, Change it, Then Flash back. It will stick. At least it did on my Moment. I put her (my wife) back on 3G when she went on a trip last month. She is back now and I have not swiched back but the problem seems to be gone. Weird I know.

Yes it does seem to stick. I'm kind of in a tough spot though. I need to force 1x at home for the reasons I said before, but I also use Pandora on my drive to work, so I need 3G then. So I guess I need to stick on a Sprint ROM so I can access the DATA menu regularly.
Thanks for the suggestions. Can anyone recommend the quickest Sprint based ROM? Even Fresh's ROM seems so laggy aince I've used darchdroid and darchstar's CM6 2.2.

I use the app AnyCut. I am able to create a link to CDMA Options > Mode of Operation. There you can select either Hybrid, EVDO or 1x. Using any cute you can easily access the right menu.

i dont have that option mode of operation
then again im using cm6

This is just another reason I choose SenseUI over anything else.
The ##778 stuff, the different options available to control my phone, the widgets, the smoothness...
On cm6, I don't know that there is a way without modifying your phone's PST settings. QPST or something, if you can get in DIAG mode with cm6 (I'm assuming you can).
But then when you leave your house, you'll have to change it back (which is a huge process compared to the SenseUI way outlined by andrewjb)

[SOLVED] Need Help Desperately > DATA Doesn't Work

Hey guys, I'm desperately looking for some assistance with my issue of not having any data upload/download working on my G2. I've been using CyanogenMod 6.1.1 Stable without any issues, tried CM 7 Nightlies a few times, but have reverted back to CM 6.1.1 Stable. I've gone back and forth a couple times, all of which a complete wipe of the phone with nandroid restores.
For whatever reason, my phone shows 3G/H switch back & forth at random intervals, appearing as if it's doing something in a good way, but yet I am unable to do anything involving data communication (e.g. email, web browsing, Market, texting, etc). When I received the phone I continued using the old SIM card that worked fine in my MyTouch3G and now-returned MyTouch4G. It's been working flawlessly in here, but I had noticed something odd. I decided to give the Wi-Fi Calling app a try, as I wanted to make sure that I could at the very least still make/receive phone calls. When I turned that on, it informed me that I had an "invalid SIM card." Then I thought, perhaps the SIM card had become dislodged, so I removed it & inserted it back into the phone. Powered it on, and I was able to get a couple emails download and a text as well, but then it stopped again.
After doing some searching online, I learned other people have had data/voice issues when using old SIM cards, so I decided to use the brand new SIM card that shipped with my G2. Of course that meant I had to call T-Mobile customer support for them to activate the phone, and they did that for me. My data is still not working for me, so I don't know what else to try. She informed me there was a data outage in three cities north of me (maybe 20-40 miles away), but no cities in my area (Aurora, IL, about 45 miles west of Chicago). I also tried flashing CM 6.1.1 Stable from scratch (clean install), and that didn't make anything better.
I went the extra mile to truly rule out if there's an issue with my G2 (i.e. broken radio), by doing some additional testing. I inserted the SIM card in my old MyTouch3G, booted it up (which BTW still works like a champ), saw the same 3G/H in the notification bar, but still could NOT access anything that requires a data connection (e.g. email, web browsing, Market, texting, etc). This leads me to believe that there could be a data outage in my area, but damn it's been ALL FREAKIN' DAY man!
So what can I do to fix this? Any ides and/or suggestions? I am desperate to get this working, so if anyone can provide some assistance I would greatly appreciate it. THANK YOU!
Here are all the specs of my phone:
- S-OFF
- CyanogenMod 6.1.1 Stable with Pershoot's kernel
- radio is 26.03.02.26_M
UPDATE: My data connection seems to be working again, so I'm guessing it was a major outage for T-Mobile which lasted all day.

My data is down right now too. In my new orleans. It just happened around 4 pm.

This may sound simple but when I was jumping between ROM's I found that my mobile data toggle had turned off in the CyanogenMod settings.
Just a thought.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I did try that already. Also did the trick (which I forgot to mention) about trying to swap out APNs (wap.voicestream.com / epc.tmobile.com), and that didn't work.

Phone shows network but no data connection or calls possible

I have purchased a used Note 4. It was already rooted so i went ahead and installed Nameless ROM and the appropriate bootloader_modem.
Now, i have no data connection and can't make any calls. Even if the bars show that there is coverage. WiFi works fine.
My first idea was to revert it to stock so i downloaded the N910GDTU1COJ3_N910GXSA1COJ3_XSA stock rom and flashed it in Odin. Full wipe and cahce clean after the flash.
I am still facing the same problem that the phone doesn't have data or voice service. Any ideas what else to try or what could be the problem?
TIA

Anyone?

for me...i always lost signal... i dont know why...910f

Same issue
Went back to stock ROM a few months ago, but this has just started with me. 4 days and not able to connect to any data service.
Tried new Sim and manual network selection, just refuses.

Hi @dosada, i guess I.have the same problem as you, I can't connect to any 3G or 4G anymore. Now, I only can use 2G and Wi-Fi. so try to put network mode to 2G only, because if you put network mode in 4g or 3g or 4g/3g/2g automatic or 3g/2g automatic you will always end with Emergency calls only or no service. I already asked help for that but no one can solve it. I already tried everything I know but no way, no one can solve it. So just courage and let us know if you get solution somewhere.
I think that it is the last time that I use or buy a Samsung phone, they really suck recently. it's better to spend our money to buy other phone than Samsung, they lost the trust of their customers. They were number one but now...puffff...

After switching from Us Cellular to Verizon, I cannot get LTE to work

So I was on USCC with my MXP and I typically leave it in CDMA mode to save battery. The data speeds are pretty similar here between 3G and 4G, so it just made sense to leave it in 3G and have a phone with 5 hours of screen on instead of 3 with 4G. So my phone was in 3G mode when they put the new Verizon sim in the phone, and now it's stuck on 3G. I can toggle LTE and it will come on for just a minute or two, then revert back. I can toggle it, and reboot, and it will come back as 3g. If I use the hidden dialer menu, it will also switch it, but revert back in minutes. It's quite annoying because Verizon here, has few CDMA towers, and doesn't seem to share with USCC like they claimed. There are places where LTE works fine, but 3g doesn't work at all. So I need to be able to switch. Any ideas, thank you for your help in advance!

Lol, yes. I've returned to stock probably 6 times since.

I'm looking for a build prop edit or something that will allow it to go into LTE again - and remain there if I so choose.
I just realized that it has done this since day one. I bet the sim is bad.

What if you force it into LTE only?when I was on Verizon never had problem with this.

It would always revert back to 3g within minutes. BUT, get this. I just got back from Verizon, and I was talking about the phone, and they said if it keeps doing it even after the sim, I'd have to send it in to Motorola. I said I really liked the phone, but the since the marshmallow update I couldn't stream music through any music streaming app. He said, that could be because of the messed up sim. Long story short, I didn't plan on going to the store today, so my phone was set up, highly customized and rooted, with root apps on the phone. He wouldn't let it out of his grubby little hands, kept trying to doing stuff, and didn't have a clue what he was doing. Had to look up how to get into bootloader. He decided to wipe the phone (but I had TWRP), so he asked if it was rooted, and I just said "yes, that's why I bought the unlocked version directly from them, so I could use it my way". He said he thinks LTE wouldn't stay connected, because Verizon probably blocks LTE for rooted devices so that people can't steal extra data.
Anyone else with rooted devices not able to use LTE? I haven't heard of mention of it, so I think he was just blowing smoke.

On a positive note though, he might have been right about the sim causing me to not be able to stream. Because I was able to stream music back to the office. Before, I couldn't stream music on BONE STOCK MM. I'll restore my nandroid when I get home and see if I lose LTE and lose streaming music.

If you have access to a computer with fastboot, this will probably work to restore your network settings and get LTE working:
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot reboot
DONE!
Let us know if you have success.
P.S.: It has absolutely nothing to do with being rooted. My device (and every device I have ever owned) is rooted, and volte, lte, etc all work fine...

I got a new SIM and all is well. I'd wiped those files and flashed the proper ones a number of times. I think it actually ended up being something in Gravity Box though. Because LTE worked until I restored GB, then it switched to 3G. So I just fixed that, and it's been working since.

Anyone have a working custom ROM on Verizon/Sprint or other CDMA network?

I have only been able to get a stock image running on my G5 Plus. I can then load Magisk and get by but would really like to run PureNexus or RR. Every single custom ROM I have tried complains that the SIM card is missing on initial install which you can simply ignore and get the phone to basically work but you can never update your PRL or account settings over the network as the app just crashes the instant it's selected. And please don't tell me I need to insert a SIM card, of course there is a SIM card inserted it just can't see it.
Is there any US based developer out there with a G5+ on CDMA.
Maybe I am just missing something obvious but I don't see what it could be. My SIM is activated and works perfectly with the stock deodexed ROM.

Yes works fine on Verizon . My problem is the about phone has my device a xt1687 but I think it needs to be Moto g 5 plus to allow me to watch my movies I buy through Google

I'm with Verizon and like you I had a huge hassle getting LTE to work on any custom ROM except Pure Nexus. I think I tried at least 10 different custom ROMs and they all had the same issue upon the initial boot complaining about the SIM card, I simply skipped it of course. All the ROMs wanted to then just give me a constant 3G signal and no LTE. I tried a few things but ultimately all the ROMs started getting LTE and then I figured out that maybe I found the fix by luck. I'd logged onto Verizon and looked at some settings and noticed my phone showed up as a default device name. I simply changed that to something else and perhaps that fixed the issue while I was flashing all these ROMs.
Now my problem is different....it's backwards. LTE works great until i get in a rural area and then the phone wont change down to 3G or 1x. No signal at all for phone or text until get back into an LTE area. I think these issues have to be related to the APN settings the custom ROMs (except Pure Nexus) are using. I would like to copy all the APN related files from the stock ROM which works perfectly over to a custom ROM but I'm unsure of which files to copy. Try changing your device name on Verizon to see what happens after a few minutes. Worth a shot...
