Moto E 2015 CDMA (Sprint, XT1526) custom rom frustrations and woes! - E 2015 General

Okay, so I wasted 7 hours last night to find out that CDMA surnia (XT1526) has no good custom roms that support LTE and wifi tether working.
My XT1526 (Sprint/Boost) has following problems.
I started with fully stock, OTA updated Lollipop 5.1, Sprint Moto E 2015 (XT1526).
For my preparation, I unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP and rooted.
1. Wifi tether is not working for XT1526 Stock OTA Android 5.1 rooted.
a. Before root, tried tether_dun_required 0, but still no data coming through even when hotspot is connected.
b. Rooted and tried Wif Tethering. Same, hotspot works but no internet access for my computer.
c. Tried methods here promising that it works for XT1526. But doesn't work for me.
d. Tried custom roms to see if they have Wifi tether fix embedded.
2. There is no single custom rom that has LTE working.
a. Latest CM12.1 has problem with XT1526 CDMA LTE connections.
b. I was getting no data connection. But I was able to make a call.
3. Tried going back to stock firmware 5.1 Lollipop.
a. Tried that fastboot commands but even it says successfully flashed, I get bootloop.
3. Went back to stock firmware 5.0.2, retaining unlocked bootloader using guide here.
a. Now I am not receiving OTA for 5.1 as I did when I just bought the phone recently.
b. Everything else works. LTE is connecting fast and reliably.
c. Wifi Tether is now not evening tuning on. Says I need to have hotspot plan with carrier.
d. For Stock 5.0.2., tether_dun_required 0 doesn't stick. It reverts to 1 when rebooted.
I am planning to try again with root+custom recovery while at 5.0.2.
Now I am downgraded to 5.0.2 and wifi tether still not working!!

XT1526 (Boost) works fine out of the box on all CM/CM based roms as of late September. It's the Sprint and VMU variants that are still being worked on. @superR over at AF has deodexed and debloated official firmware that runs fine on both Boost and Sprint devices along with a flashable hotspot fix.

Oh having debloated official firmware would be nice.
I tried to search for superR's post in XDA but couldnt find the rom for surnia.
Can you tell me what AF is? is that a website?

AF is android forums, I'm pretty sure. When you go to that website, just type in moto e 2015, under the rooting section, you will find the ROMs. Good luck!

Thanks for the info

If you're trying to tether it to your computer for a Wi-Fi signal the easiest way is PdaNet do a little searching you'll find the unlocked version out there for download

Issues on Lollipop Build LRX21V.N9005XXUGBOEA

Hi Everyone, I am having some annoying issues with my Lollipop since upgrading my note 3.
The build is Build LRX21V.N9005XXUGBOEA, Kernal version 3.4.0 -50200004 and base version N9005XXUUGBOD3
I have noticed the GPS is horrible. It often drops out and whilst using it, it drops out all the time and is always losing signal. I had to install a second app to help support the GPS so it works mostly no but not as well as it used too.
The wifi and 4G is a problem as well. It will often freeze and the whole phone becomes unresponsive and I have to take the battery out too reboot it.
Is there a more stable version I should be using please? I am getting tired of these ongoing issues, if I can't find a solution, I might just roll back too kitkat.
Other the GPS issue (it locks fine outside but I am still not happy that it sometimes won't lock inside) there are no problems on my phone at all. There is no 4G here, but H+ stays almost always, WiFi is absolutely rock solid too! Honestly I am really happy with this TouchWiz iteration. I was on OEA and I didn't have any issue as far as I can remember, but now I am on OF3, but as you can guess I wasn't having those issues you mentioned on OEA either, so I really don't know what to tell you mate.

Thanks for getting back to me. I was hoping someone would be able to point me in the direction of a more solid version. I am running the first one that came out, so am thinking maybe a better version has been released that has fixes in place for these issues. Sorry I am not sure what OEA is or OF3

OF3 is how we refer to firmware the last 3 digits but if I was you I would get very latest OG4 and update your modem to OF3 your firmware is a buggy release

Doesn't matter where you are mate. Just get either OF3 or OG4 from sammobile, whichever has more build number and flash it. Update your modem too.

Hi,
I am on OG4 which I downloaded from Sammobile and I flashed it through Odin (checked only F. Time Reset & Auto Reboot). Everything else works fine but my Wifi does not turn on. Bluetooth & H+ (3G) are also working fine. Can you please tell me whether I need to update modem? I was rooted previously & Knox is at 0x1. Can you share the link for flashing the modem if it's required? Or any other solution please.

I also flashed UAE Lollipop OG4 but my WiFi and Bluetooth still not turning on.
I don't know how and why you guys have these problems!
Anyway, I am sure you must have fully wiped the device before upgrading right? By full wipe I mean wiping everything, TWRP - Advanced Wipe - Select all (except external SD of course) and then flash the ROM via Odin.

[Q] Moto X Pure MM and T-Mobile, Band 12 and VoLTE

This issue is RESOLVED!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/help/howto-enable-band-12-moto-pure-mm-ota-t3267057
Anyone have band 12 working and if so, which ROM and method of flashing did you use?
I am stuck on band 4 but do have VoLTE showing in the settings, just unable to test it so far.
Thanks in advance!

Can you screenshot the VoLTE settings? I flashed the OTA (sideloaded) but I don't see an option for VoLTE unless it's the setting for "Enhanced 4G LTE Mode".

It is Enhanced 4G LTE Mode of in not mistaking.
I am still yet to see band 12 come up, even while in Orlando which I know has 12 active. Anyone know if there is some provisioning possibly missing?

I am also unable to get band 12 support in Houston on TMobile. Coworker with a Galaxy s6 can get band 12 but I cannot. Have tried the odexed debloated rooted version of MM, stock MM which I then flashed to be rooted and the TruPureXMM rom, but all of them show as using band 4 when checking using LTE Discovery.

Is your signal better? If the phone is using carrier aggregation between 4&12 then it is likely it would only does 4.

No signal improvement, but I'll check and see it it switches over to 12 at my work tomorrow. Coworkers S6 picks up band 12. Also, I went to A&M and am in Houston too. Do you happen to be around the memorial area and pick up Band 12?
So anyone actually with a custom rom is being able to access band12? So far looks like only people on stock not rooted have it.

I pickup band 12 in the memorial area at work. However, I am currently using the Nexus 6p. I am following this thread because I want to get back to the moto x, but need band 12. I want to switch, but need signal at work. I had the moto x at launch, but without any definite release of band 12 I returned it.

As far as I am seeing now people who got the OTA/sideloaded it without custom ROM are being able to access band12.
I tried both MM roms and my imei SV is always at 01 - just like on LP which does not allow me to accesss b12.
Anyone found a solution? makes me wonder how custom roms even odexed somehow disable band12.
Maybe once we get the factory images for 6.0 (like the indian firmware) have it already it should be ok or better.
@btafoya did you find a solution yet?

I have a stock rooted Odexed "slightly modified" MM with Band 12 working (and Android Pay).
(my SV is showing 02)
- Restore to stock manually (avoid restoring recovery and last 2 steps: erase user data and flash userdata.img) to avoid erasing you personal data and apps
- Flash OTA manually (in my case I do it in TWRP, stock recovery works too)
- Reboot
- Install and setup Android Pay
- Root using Chainfire's kernel autopatcher SuperSU 2.60
- Apply mods (no increasing ringtone)

Is anyone successfully running Nougat with Verizon?

I want to use Nougat on my HTC 10. I have the verizon version of the phone, but don't mind converting to any other version if necessary (or just easier) to move to Nougat.
I've been reading for days, but can't find any solid, complete information on how to do this, or really if even possible. I've found lots of pieces of the puzzle, but nothing that lists the steps, or requirements for making this work.
If you know how to get a Verizon phone working on Nougat firmware and have a working phone and data, I'd love to know EXACTLY how you managed to do so. If I can't have advanced calling right now, that's okay with me, but I do need a working phone and data at a minimum.
I've installed PMEUHL_2.28.401.9 firmware and LeeDroid_ROM_Nougat_HTC10_R21, but had to change the phone to SuperCID 1111111 to get it to install. I also had to change the firmware packages' android.txt file to have the MID match the phone (MID2PS650000).
I have everything running, but have no phone or data, so I'm stuck with wifi only at this point.
I don't mind if I have to wipe the phone again to get it working (I'd rather not), so long as I can use the phone on Verizon again.
Is it possible I just need to flash the verizon radio at this point, or do I just need to start from scratch?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Have you tried formatting data?
In TWRP > wipe > format data > (type) yes
(do at own risk, it won't hurt anything, just will wipe your internal. you ARE warned)
------------------
Side note, Advanced Calling only works on one ROM, and that is @santod040 amazing port found here
I run SuperCID all the time, It's suggested to do 22222222 instead of 11111111 but not a biggie at all.
I run Verizon firmware with multirom. I have my stock ROM as primary (this is a must) and then I can flash any N ROM as a secondary.
I have ICE N ROM, Leedroid N ROM, Santods ROM, AOKP MM and CM 14.1 all loaded up and working great with data.

As for what you want,

You could wait a little bit longer for it to be released. It's not far away.
For NuSense ROM do we still need to install with data unencrypted? I assume so because I don't think TWRP is updated for Android N. Thanks.
I'm on the new viper 4.3.1 which is N based without upgrading firmware. everything working pretty well and has great tweaks and theming. Give it a shot.
wifi calling and video calling seem to be bugged but the advanced calling is active for hd voice
id do it this way until Verizon updates, itll be soon.
Might just stay on MM, Idk I'm torn. If NuSense has VZW features working bug free I'll give that a shot

On the Downloads tab of the HTC 10 TWRP thread, there is an unofficial version of TWRP v3.0.2.7 which supports Nougat firmware. If you're still on Marshmallow firmware and use a Nougat ROM on it, you still might want to use the official TWRP v3.0.2.6.

Just because the LTE icon is there doesn't mean it's working. Try making a call and browsing the play store.

When I was running N I couldn't browse the web and be on a phone call simultaneously. Also, HD calling and video calling did work for me. This was on LeeDroid N and I also tried Viper 2.4.0 with the same results.
Viper Nougat 4.x.x works perfectly fine on VZW Marshmallow firmware, except no advanced calling (wifi calling and VoIP).
Make sure to choose 6.0.1 firmware in the last option of Aroma to have fingerprint scanner working, as well as mobile data. (if you are on MM firmware!!) ROM does NOT install firmware.

Advanced calling is bugged on HTC's end, and will be until either an incremental official update or until a fix is found. TL: DR it will be bugged in all roms based of HTC N.

But advanced calling works fine on test N ROMs on the Verizon 10, so you'll just have to wait for the OTA to drop.

I think you're probably running a custom Rom and seeing the notification for US Unlocked Nougat.
It's not a notification from Verizon at all.
There is no Verizon 2.28 Nougat update... It will not be 2.28.605.x when it's released.

Correct, that's what I was saying as well.
As the current Nougat Vzw test builds are not 2.28 and aren't typically of the same number as other variants anyways...

Moving to Magisk Nougat

Hey guys, I'm stock, rooted, s-off with magisk and I'd like to be on Lee Droid or Viper Nougat with working Magisk and Verizon features. The way I'm reading their guides, it seems I would have to be on Nougat firmware for that. Does that mean I can convert to US Unlocked Nougat with updated firmware, then to Lee Droid or Viper Magisk and pass safety net while having nougat and advanced calling and such?
Thanks guys
I'd love to know the answer to this as well. I don't have many friends using Verizon, so I don't use the Verizon features much. I'm just kind of tired of Verizon being slow with their updates. For some reason I keep being stupid and buying Verizon phones despite the long updates for 4 different phones that have been on Verizon. :/
you guys have to flash the US unlocked RUU and then flash the Verizon radio for it to work. From what I've read you'll have the features you want. But since I haven't personally tried I cannot be 100%. there is guides on how to do this.
IMHO, I would wait for Verizon, it is always best to use your carriers firmware. It wont be much longer even though itll feel like a lifetime.
I'd love to get a confirmation on this as well. I can say however from my own experience that running VZW firmware with viper10 4.x.x ROM that everything works great EXCEPT volte (HD calling/ advanced calling features) I'd like to mention to others who are experimenting as well that I can format data, flash 3.5.0 and have volte back up and running no problem. My theory is the issue lies in the VZW firmware being a MM version. My next step is to flash the nougat RUU, flash the VZW radio, and then the viper nougat ROM. I'll share the results once I get the chance to do everything. Again if anyone can chime in on this method that would be greatly appreciated.

Did you do anything special when you installed the ROM? Could you tell me what steps you took installing it? Just wondering if I'm missing something. I have the latest VZW firmware installed as well. Are you positive that advanced calling is working? I notice that when you make a call the data signal icon will remain on the status bar (unless you go into venom tweaks and change it to anything other than the stock icon, then it will disappear) but there won't be any traffic and I can confirm it by trying to load a web page.

So this is the last intermediate step to getting the extra verizon functions to work? Im assuming once androidkitchen is fixed to set the values properly, we should be able to build it in directly?

That's what it's looking like to me. With some work it is possible to get ROMs working on MM firmware with VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling. Santods rom has had this for a little bit and now with this new information, if one was to say combine both, the outcome is great. But I'll leave that to those more experienced than myself, but it is possible now thanks to all these brilliant minds.
Is the magisk files in the magisk repo?

Need verizon to update to n, that's the step we need. On mm it's still broken on n based Roms
Other Than that yes

Even better. Didn't realize that 4.6.0 was out, so I don't know of the change log.
Wasn't bragging by any means also.. Was just stating that it works, and was sure smarter devs would get it soon.
I can confirm that the viper 4.6.0 upgrade does fix volte for vzw devices running mm firmware. The changelog says only working for non magisk version, I suppose that's due to no nougat firmware/RUU released from Verizon yet. If that's a deal breaker your gonna have to wait, otherwise make sure your running the supersu only version. I upgraded from 4.5.0 and it works perfectly. Something I've noticed over the last few months with all the flashing I have done is that if you go into the hidden network info screen, if it shows 3107 for your carrier, it won't work, if it says Verizon wireless as your carrier, then everything is working as it should. Thanks for the update in the rom guys this is GREATLY appreciated for the hard work.

Wifi tether xt1625

I finally found a Wi-Fi tether fix for the 1625 variant and will most likely work if other variants have the same problem. When I would enable Wi-Fi tethering through the build.prop change I could enable the tethering but then it would break my camera. I found that on magisk in the download section is a Wi-Fi tethering enabler module which actually works. You don't even have to add the build.prop line. Follow the link below to the magisk thread and download the most recent zip file and Flash it then go to the Play Store and download magisk manager, once you do that go into the download section of magisk the menu (in the upper left corner.) Download the Wi-Fi tether enabler module and you are good to go amazingly it works

This is non Amazon variant. Wifi tether works on mm but not on n. I've updated to n soak but still the problem persists. Attached is log cat of wifi tether not turning on. http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/5884d58480251/2017-01-15_07.24.zip

Try disabling data before use wifi tethering. It's a common problem already discussed here and can be workaround this way.

Thank you, that didn't work. It still says hotspot turning on forever. And doesn't it need data to use as wifi tether. And I've never seen it talked about beyond the build prop edit

You have stock N rom? AFAIK the problem was only existing in custom roms, I had it too,but solved since many versions(before LineageOS)
No stock. Only custom

Which rom?Would be helpful to tell all things exactly what you've installed and which versions. In the op for me it sounds like you have installed n soak test, now you say only custom? I'm a little bit confused now
I installed soak, now in on custom

I'm on LineageOS OMS 13th build and it works very well. I checked your video. I have no clue on which rom you are and which version and why you don't tell...
I'm on aex 3.0 but WiFi tether doesn't work on any N rom. And I've tried with all kernels, exkernel, vegito, quark

Ok, now we have the required information!
Since I have mm firmware lets see if somebody can check if wifi tethering with N firmware is working or not on any nougat custom rom. Let's wait until someone report back.
I've asked on telegram, and here. Everyone's WiFi tether is working, mine is the only weird phone. But it works on mm.

Nevermind, flashed latest lineage oms, and I'm tethering away. Definitely a kernel issue

Stock kernel with supersu 2.79 sr3, broke WiFi tethering. Also elementalx kernel with native cm root broke WiFi tethering. So, stay stock kernel and native cm root to tether.

There's no advice to flash super su on prerooted roms, so be careful what you're flashing that supersu can break some things is already known.
OK. Somehow, WiFi tether and camera are connected. When I use WiFi tether after that trying to use my camera it won't connect and says restart camera.

And I know SuperSU breaks ril, and yes that was already known.

So lame... Someone reported my screen recording of WiFi tethering not working!!?

I add the line "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" to my build.prop and it fixes WIFI tethering. I have to redo it after each update flash of AICP.

Maybe someone can create a script for Addon.d to automatically append that upon updating the ROM.
