[Q] Isis 3g 4g issue - SOLVED - at least in my case - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm having issues with Isis. I have an enhanced SIM, I've installed rootcloak with Isis added. But I keep getting the message "Your phone can't connect to the 3G or 4G mobile network right now. Please try again later." I've tested my mobile connection and it works... Any ideas? I've searched this issue and can't seem to find a solution. I'm currently running the leaked 4.4.2 (BeansTown106) version with Isis 2.01.00-build.15.30

Same issue here

Isis tells me I don't have an enhanced SIM, even though I was running it fine on 4.3 and I do. I think it's just not compatible yet and they are really slow. I emailed their support a few days ago asking when they would be compatible with KK and got no response whatsoever yet.

I dont have a enhanced SIM (nor do I know what it does/is) but I have installed the leaked 4.4.2 rom and the nc2 firmware. I lost data connection as well. I have the 3g/4g icon pop up but the arrows are not there and it will not connect to the internet. I have tried using mje. m19, nc4, nc2 modems to no avail. I have also tried using Hyperdrive ROM and the 4g icon wont even show up. It was working fine on my stock rom yesterday before I upgraded to KK.
Anybody with some insight on this topic, help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
PS I searched through several forums and have not found any solid answers.

To the best of my limited knowledge, the enhanced SIM is really just the SIM that comes with the new phones. I had an old SIM that I transferred to my N3 and it didn't have the secure element that is required to run Isis. It's interesting that it works on 4.3 but not 4.4 after my discussion with the Verizon rep the other day (when he almost busted me for being rooted). He asked me what version I was on and I told him 4.4.2 and he seemed to think it should work.

Thanks for the explanation.

Solved - at least in my case
The issue in my case seemed to be the theme I had installed. I had to restore a nandroid that I had made prior to installing the All Backs Black theme. After the restore I was able to open and complete the Isis set-up...

[Q] ISIS Issue on Rooted Note 3

Hello Gurus,
I followed the guide at the following url to setup ISIS on my ATT rooted Note-3 using a T-Mobile SIM. i am getting a message that "Enhanced SIM" same as the issue reported on second url below.
Guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2425346
Issue - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2425346&page=38
Can someone guide me how to fix this issue? i am on ISIS Bypass 3.0 and ISIS 3.0
Thanks in Advance.
You have to get an isis sim from tmo. It's different than the normal sim. Just go to a tmo retail shop and tell them you want to trade your sim for one with isis. It's a free swap.

I have been using ISIS for the last 6 months on my S3 no issues. my Note 3 is not recognizing the ISIS functionality of the SIM. i think it is probably dues to something not working due to XPosed/ISIS Root hide..
See the url i sent about few other people having the same issue.

No. IIRC the s series had a built in secure element. The n3 does not. The sim is different if it's an isis sim.
If you were having issues with root/xposed it wouldn't even get that far in its checks.

I am actually using SM-N900A (ATT Version of Note-3) on T-Mobile, not sure if that is an issue.
my SIM has Purple ISIS wording on it and working fine on my S3, so i thought it must be phone.
I will get a new SIM today and report back how it goes. Appreciate your help.

Ahh, if your SIM has the purple ISIS logo on it it should be fine then. It still could be an incompatible SIM issue; when I got my ISIS SIM for my phone, they asked me what model it was for before giving it to me. *shrug*
It could be that you're using a ATT n3 on Tmo, but I can't say for certain.

[Q] My Samsung S4 att drops signal

Giants,
I have my 32 gb samsung s4 since the end of 2012, however, I have been flashing a lot of roms with no issue. the problem started a week ago when the display has been broken and I changed it. Everything went okay for 3 days, suddenly, it starts to drop signal with no reason. I flashed the rom again "liquidsmooth rom" and I flashed another rom, I even flashed the modem again. I tried to search for the problem, I don't know if the brokee of my display ambact the signal or it is a software issue. Now, I am using liquidsmooth 4.4.4.
I have been testing my Sim card in other phone, it works perfectly. I have tried other sims in my phone it gives me the same issue. another thing I want to mention is that after this problem I have never get 3G or 3g+, I always get 2G or No signal.
Omar,
It's a long shot but maybe your apn settings changed check them. Not sure if it will work but worth a try.

A statement of fact about non AT&T service and OTAs

I've read that since I have an AT&T Note 3, I would receive updates even tho I'm on cricket. This did not happen for me. I ODINd 4.4.2, and tried to get it to update OTA to 4.4.4 by changing the date forward. It wouldn't update. So on cricket, the N900A DOES NOT receive OTAs (neither has ANY AT&T device I have used on cricket or even on prepaid AT&T service on my tablets)). I got to lollipop via @Walter.White method however so that is not a big deal for me. Just letting other users know.
This is also the case for me while i have this unit on Tmobile.

It Worked
I have been running 5.0 rooted for like a week and a half. I miss xposed. Lollipop battery life is poor when compared to my old 4.4.2 with xposed. The battery stats screen is also crappy, I don't care how much battery is left, I want to know how much has been used for how long. I guess as far as stock rom goes it seemed pretty normal but it is hard to tell as I have a 10,000 Mah zero lemon battery. Lollipop does seem to run nice. I had some issues with google play I think, but they settled after being connected to the internet for awhile. I think there are some things that stuck from xsposed like my network says HOME (I had changed carrier label via Wanam) and also my core cpu min and max frequencies I had set with performance profile?. No frills cpu says that my minimum cpu speed is 1.2 Ghz when I deny root. Anyway I Just decided to downgrade....... 4.4.2 and exposed.
I ran nc2 flasher.
I RESTORED THE BACKUP OF SYSTEM AND DATA THAT I MADE PRIOR TO UPGRADE TO 5.0!
I wiped dalvik and cache? (The two that are least important)
Reboot!
Worked for me
Hoping to try some MOGA......

I'm pretty sure you have to have an AT&T sim card in the phone for it to actually update via OTA, not just an AT&T variant of the phone.

I have found this to be partially true. I have an AT&T sim in my tablet, but it's prepaid and it also isn't receiving updates. So basically, not only does it have to be an AT&T sim, it also has to be postpaid service.

Thanks for the clarification. When I made the statement, I was referring to post-paid service, but I didn't even think about Pre-paid. It's nice to know since I'm thinking about getting my phone unlocked.
Yes, I think it's bull. It doesn't cost anything to them for a direct link off the web. Cricket customers should be able to get updates online. HTC provides up- date links if you're not OTA able
Kies should upgrade the phone, as should a place like best buy..it really isn't a big deal

[Q] Any way with sprint to talk and hotspot without disconnect?

Well recently switched to sprint to save money...(yayaya big mistake) picked up a M9 only to find out the new spark network doesnt allow talk and hotspot at the same time. So i did some research and found the that 720 (non triband) S4 galaxy has dual antennas that would allow talk and hotspot without interuption... at least thats what i thought....so I bought one on ebay and return my M9...
So now im rooted with the s4 (odin) and have the wifi app for $2.80 google play store.. and still every time I make a call my internet goes out.
Is there anyway I can access both without interruption on the sprint network? or do i have to add a line and have a dedicated rooted phone for uninterrupted access?
Thanks ahead of time guys, I came here first cause i know your the BEST!

Maybe its the hotspot app you are using? have you tried the hotspod mod on these forums?
also, make sure you're on LTE, as thats the only way sprint phones can talk and do data..

Not if tri-band and on LTE. There is no VoLTE so it will disconnect data when you are on a call. You are SOL.

Yea i know.. im no stranger when it comes to rooting and flashing, but I did a basic ODIN2 root, then added WiFi tether from googleplay store and this is happening, on OS 4.2.2
So now Im about to flash OD2 baseband the
Wicked 10.2 ,
then 10.3 and see if fixes it.
A possible reason why this is happening is perhaps when I recieved the phone I did not have a SIM card for it. (ebay sepcial) So I went into sprint and they flashed a new one onto it possibly to disconnect the VoLTE upon dual usage. Im hoping the OD2 baseband and WICKED rom will repair this.
UPDATE:
flash OD2 and now I have voice and data!! YES
Just flashed the wicked 10.3 rom and now I have no keyboard!...damn

Updating SM-G900A to latest

My girlfriend's SM-G900A is sitting on 4.4.2, I think it's supposed to be on 5.1.1 or somewhere near so from what I've read, but can't seem to find a definitive answer on how to get it done. The regular software update method results in it saying "checking AT&T server for update" (which she does have a sub-carrier, GoSmart) and it then says fully up to date. Kies, which I installed on my home PC, also says the same. Is there a way to get this up to at least Lollipop? How is that done?
need to put an at&t sim in it to get it up to date.

Wouldn't be a simple solution for us unfortunately. Any other way?

personal experience was just how you described until I shoved an at&t sim in it; then it updated then & there.
assuming gosmart is similar to tracphone or net10 then I wouldn't anticipate anything other than an at&t sim working. however if you can beg, borrow or steal one for 15 minutes; you'll ge the result you want.
