LTE cellular network issue on marshmallow roms. Please help. - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the samsung s5 from metro (klte t-mobile), I don't know why but on marshmallow roms ( Currently using "Dirty Unicorns"), I have to always go into my settings and go into cellular networks, tap on at&t then wait... THEN, tap t-mobile in order to get back my 4g LTE every time I reboot the phone. If I don't do that, I wont get my LTE working. I don't understand an I have googled high and low for an answer and I can't find one. I wonder if there is some radio thing for me to flash.. and I use TWRP recovery if that helps.

Anything??

no LTE option to select

i have an italian Galaxy s4 i9505, stock rom, no root, nothing modded yet
it is an LTE version and, but i'm surprised that going in settings --> network mode i can't choose LTE, but i have just GSM and WCDMA or GSM/WCDMA auto connect.
anyway, where i live there is still no LTE network. could this depend on the SIMcard?
is that normal?

Yep, same on my Switzerland S4 (i9505)
You will require a LTE enabled sim card.
Whether you have a LTE sim or not you will see the option for LTE.
Your provider / carrier doesn't support LTE since the option was removed.
If you just want to see the option, grab another country/carrier firmware.

i have a no brand terminal, so i should be able to see the lte switch...
i'm surprised of this
i will flash a custom rom when i see one that i like, there are still too few
I also have an unbranded i9505 and didn't have the lte option, tried many different stock roms/modem/csc combinations, but it still didn't appear.
I changed some the lte pref mode setting from gsm_wcdma_only to gwl and still don't have the option. But my carrier activated lte yesterday in my area and i got a 4g signal, so even though i am not able to choose that in the settings it will connect regardless.
ok!
this is good to know, i hope i can try if it works soon
thanks!
Flash it with the uk btu firmware available from sammobile

No LTE on my OP2 with custom ROMs

Hey everyone. I have installed multiple custom ROMS on my phone including unofficial temasek and xperia cm 12.1 razor ROM and all of them end up with an exclamation point next to my cellular signal. Stock I have to issues with only custom ROMs. I made sure AT&T APN was correct and the preferred network was LTE. I know I have LTE signal because if I install stock it works fine. Any suggestions?
have you tried manually registering on att lte through cellular network setting?
No LTE after remote support from Oneplus Team
Guys,
I am new to this forum, so pardon if I made any mistake in posting.
Well, I have recently undergone a remote support session from oneplus team, during which I they have flashed my device with an special software (it was done to address broken fingerprint sensor repair). But unluckily I ended up with no LTE on my phone.
I was using same phone with network provide in the same area on LTE prior to that session, but later on my device no more work on LTE. Kindly help me resolving this issue.
I have tried putting my SIM in other phone, LTE works there, (other phone is Oneplus X, and in same area).
I have tried putting in other sim of same network but still no luck.
I have tried putting in a different network sim card in my phone and it works on LTE.
My understanding is, the the current ROM has locked the band which I was using earlier for LTE. Kindly advise.

Verizon Galaxy S5 no service with tmobile or metro

Before I rooted my verizon galaxy s5 I was able to use ATT sim cards but the phone would not get any service whatsoever with a tmobile sim or metro pcs sim. Everyone i spoke to at least was able to connect to the tmobile or metro pcs network, even if they were having data issues...but I was not even able to get a network signal. Finally, I rooted the phone and am using a tmobile rom thinking that may help. But no luck. For some reason my phone will not register itself on tmobile or metro pcs, Not even to just connecto to the network to make phone calls. I tried 2 different tomible roms and i think an att rom and no luck whatsoever. Anybody else experience this issue? Is there a root function or service menu that I need to access to enable the proper band? Is rooting the phone even going to change anything? Makes no sense how every other verizon s5 out there has no problem connecting to tmobile or metro but I have the only one. Ive scoured the forums and have yet to find any answer....thoughts? Oh, I also tried every APN settings combination imaginable. Even other carriers just because I was getting nowhere with the tmobile and metro APNs.
Quite a lot of your thread made absolutely no sense, so I'm not sure if this will help.
Look for a tar.md5 that contains the stock modem partition for the Verizon S5, and flash it through Odin.
Are you bootloader unlocked? I would just flash a generic klte rom, like Cyanogenmod, instead of flashing an ATT or T-Mobile rom.

According to a few people i spoke with the root for verizon s5 can only accept TW roms. And to clear up anything that doesnt make sense. my verizon s5 will not get any service with tmobile or metro. Works fine with att. So i decided to root. After rooting still no luck. However, before I rooted I was getting no bars at all. After rooting I was actually getting service bars but still would not get any actual service. I tried every APN setting I could find and still no luck. Thats all. I will try your advice as far as flashing the tar.md5 and let you know.

There was a bootloader unlock exploit released - it allows any rom to be flashed. It's been in the top development posts for weeks. Go check that out, and you can flash cyanogenmod.
I actually am in a similiar situation except I am already on CM13 using a previously Verizon S5, I just started Tmobile service yesterday and in general I can make calls but data is rather inconsistent. Example right now when I make it call it falls down to 3g (Normal) but when I disconnect it tries to connect to H+ then 3G but all of them don't supply it data so it just swaps around 3G LTE and H+ and I have to airplane mode on/off to fix it. So this person may still have issues using CM13. I did already go over the APN information with people from TMobile and from post around the web. Does anyone think that flashing the Tmobile s5 modem stuff will fix this?
you just need to get the correct APN settings

I've tried the correct son settings. It didn't work. I used the settings found online for T-Mobile. I called T-Mobile. Non of the settings worked. I flashed back the the stock rom. No joy. flashed a verizon s5 rom again. No joy. I am starting to think that this is the only verizon s5 that won't allow t to register on T-Mobile's network.

[4g fix] on Fulmics Rom for verizon VS985

Four things to note before proceeding...
1. This only works for users having vs985 model outside the US or not on verizon network.
2. I'm beginner im not responsible for any harm to your phone , I'm just sharing what i did to attain 4g services.
3. May be you already know all the things in the post but it can be useful for beginners like me .
4. Sorry for the english as its not my native language.
So Hi guys i installed this rom and as usually i was not getting any 4G or lte network.
Then i go to my network provider's website to check on which Band or frequency 4g services are active. ( for this i just googled 'idea 4g band' and i am redirected to my network provider's website. Here 'idea' is the name of network provider.)
So i found that in my region 4g services are active on Band3
Different careers use different Bands to provide 4g services such as band40 , band17 etc
Then i go to phone's hidden menu by the Advanced Menu of Fulmics Tweaks.
In hidden menu i select Modem Protocol > LTE Band Selection
There i select Band3 but i got "Fail' message on screen , however when i select band4 it gave me a 'success' message.
It means on my phone band4 is active but not band3.
All this information of Bands are stored in Modem or Bootstack section of our phone.
May be fulmics rom is having a band concerned with international rom So now i need a modem on which Band3 can be activated by going to hidden menu.
So i just flashed 35b Bootstack compiled by @xdabbeb.
Which can be found in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-lg-g3/development/xdabbeb-s-vs980-2-0-0-t3231279
After flashing when i tried to select band3 in hidden menu it gave a 'success' message . It means Band3 is activated on my phone. And now when i searched for all networks in Networks Menu of Phone Setting. I got my network listed and i successfully registered on it. And got 4G NETWORK.
So first of all you should know on which band your network is working and then try flashing different bootstacks on which your 4g Band can be activated.
Flashing wrong Bootstack can brick your phone
""Do not flash any bootstack above 35b. Custom roms are still not compatible with bootstacks above 35b""
You can try 24b , 12b. (But im sure only about 35b as i tried only this)
Again I'm not responsible for any harm to your phone. Use your mind and search thoroughly before taking any step.

Hi there, thanks for the info. What area are you in and where did you find what band you needed? I have tried numerous times with all the bootstacks and never had consistent 4G.
@mopartonyg
I'm in India and i just checked my career's website to know which band they are using. However in USA Verizon wireless uses Band12 as Primary Band and Band2 , Band4 as Secondary band to strengthen the signal in densely populated urban area. So if you are verizon user in USA band 12,4,2 must be activated. I can't say anything about consistency as it varies from place to place.
Actually Verizon uses band 13 for it's primary along with bands 4 and 2. Not having any luck getting data to work on Fulmics with this method. I select band 13 and band 4 (as band 2 is not in my area) yet even with that I still can't get data at all on Verizon with Fulmics.
same boat here... actually the only band I can get working is 4. I have to assume the design of the international rom with the band they are designed around, just don't play nice with our CDMA harware/modem partition. I would suspect that the international roms would require some engineering for them to really work properly. not sure if just porting them over and chaning settings is going to get the job done. perhaps someone more intelligent than I could share some light, but there certainly is a conflict with how these roms communicates across the CDMA bands in the US

One thing i noticed here... that only Verizon sim users are facing problem regarding 4G whereas other international users like me ( and some of my friends in China are free to select any network ). So may be verizon is creating restrictions as when i was on Stock vs985 verizon Rom ( unrooted) , i was not getting any official ota updates. It always says your software is up to date. But then i found a statement in Verizon's website that you will not get any official updates if you are not having verizon sim.
So verizon knows what Rom and what sim we are using.

A couple of good approaches to the issue. Although it needs to be noted 4G is directly related to the band on each carrier (VZW, TMO, etc) See Below
Carrier 4G LTE Bands Frequencies
Verizon Wireless 2, 4, 13 1900, 1700 f, 700 c
T-Mobile 2, 4, 12 1900, 1700 def, 700 a
Sprint 25, 26, 41 1900 g, 850, 2500
Europe 3, 7, 20 1800, 2600, 800
If a specific ROM cannot be set to the correct bands above, it would make sense to me that Verizon wouldn't work in Europe on a stock VZW ROM. It would not be able to use the channels in Europe.
And vice versa, that Verizon wouldn't work in the states on an international ROM in the US. Whether the Verizon SIM is blocking that band, or the design of the ROM, would be a better question for the developers.

Warid's approved devices will definitely work with Warid's LTE network. For our "Warid LTE Approved' devices please visit the "Warid's LTE devices" section. You can also purchase LTE devices that support 1800 MHz (FDD-LTE Bands 3) from other sources. However, Warid doesn't take responsibility for these devices if they do not work on Warid's LTE network http://www.waridtel.com/lte/faqs
So it makes sense that if BAND 3 works international (see above) that you get 4G
The one thing I noticed after activating bands 13 and 4 (with the proper VS985 35B bootstack) in the hidden settings is when I searched for my network under network settings it does bring up Verizon but it fails authentication. So it's like there is something missing in Fulmics ROM itself that would get it to where the ROM will work with Verizon's network. So is it a matter of lifting whatever files from say 47A/47B into Fulmics that have the Verizon VS985 specific info to get it to work perhaps?

I think now its not a matter of bootstack. Because even when Required Band is activated we can't register to the Verizon. Xpirt mentioned in a post that he is working to resolve network issues in Verizon models. We can hope that this problem will be solved in next version However xdabbeb shared that the 47A modem won't work without the corresponding 47A secondary bootloader (sbl1). Unfortunately, the 47A sbl1 doesn't play nice with the last bump-exploitable Android bootloader (aboot) we have from 12b. If you use that pairing, you'll put your device into 9008 bulk mode(Hard brick).

The good news is we do have 47A ROMs that are using the 35B modem so there is potential that Xpirt could use that as a source for a fix with the authentication issue. So @xpirt if you need anyone to beta test fixes my VS985 is ready to help!

Great discussion towards the development of the International ROM's for our VS985. I was able to get 4G with Andy's 30A ported ROM...although the signal bars never came up on my phone, I was able to get the 4G speeds. I noticed that the APN XML was filled with Chinese... So for whatever reason and way, my phone was able to grab "somebody's" 4G tower. I'm hoping the RIL (Radio Interface Layer) and libraries were pulled over and perhaps this could provide some more insight to @Xspirit

I am on BlackSoulxxx latest LG G3 Tekcafe v5.3 D85530A-Full G5 ROM. Here's what I did to get the bars with 4g data. I tested it out in areas where there is no cell service and in areas where there is 1x or 3g and the 4g came back. I even made a backup of the ROM wiped and installed another marshmallow aosp rom and others. I then went to restore BlackSoulxxx ROM and 4g signal still came back.
Steps I did.
1. Tot'd back to stock 10b and rooted and installed twrp.
2. Flashed LG_G3_Flash2BackupEFS.zip of the 10b rom.
3. Wiped stock 10b and flashed the 10b G3_EFS_Flashable_Restore.zip that was created from the the LG_G3_Flash2BackupEFS.zip.
4. Flashed BlackSoulxxx rom and after it booted up I had signals but not data until I entered the Verizon APN manually see picture of what to enter. If mobile network is greyed out flash 35b bootstack.
5. I entered the verizon APN and selected CDMA then global I got the 4g icon with signal bars I changed the icon with a buildprop edit.
I just don't get signals while in 1x or 3g but data does work still and it will get 4g again if your in a 4g area. The phone does say T-CDMA 64. Here's a https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-EyVOQK1xDAa0VmbERXcUlrV1U/view?usp=sharing to change it to Verizon Wireless courtesy of @xpirt.

Great job posting your step by step instructions. I've been able to achieve all of the same on a host of international ROMS however with a couple of caveots. I can either have SMS/MMS working properly, or break SMS/MMS and have internet with signal bars. Question about the file above. This will just modify the header, or will it specifically put you on the Verizon network?

Data will not work after flashing G935U Firmware on G935V

So Im looking for a way to enable native tethering on my phone and after a lot searching I flashed the G935U firmware. After flashing the G935U firmware on my G935V, my data stopped working. Call and text works fine but no data. It doesn't even show the 4G LTE symbol in status bar.
I am currently using Straight Talk BYOP.
Any help would be much appreciated and thank you!

Thats the crazy part! I cant edit it after flashing the U firmware. But the APN settings are the same from when it was still on the V firmware. Its just now the 4G LTE doesnt work. I downloaded some 4G enabler from the play store that took me to some hidden settings to change between GSM, CDMA, and about 12 other variants of similar nature. After doing so the only one that worked was the CDMA (prl) which activated 3G network. But LTE CDMA (prl) didnt work which was what it was on I think.

add a new APN with tour settings. emable it... and try global mode
Nope still no go...its not even showing 3G at the momemnt
I tried every apn/preferred network type combination and wasn't able to get anything better than 3G. So I just got done flashing the G935V firmware back and now 4G LTE is working. Anyway I can use hotspot on G935V firmware?
SOLVED!
So after contacting straight talk it seems my APN settings where to blame.
Upon opening the APN, I had to change APN from "vzwinternet" to "tracfone.vzwentp." Then save and make sure network mode was set to LTE/CDMA instead of global.
I noticed it returns to default "vzwinternet" after flashing any firmware thus making me have to put it back in. But that's no problem at all. Everything is currenly working and I now have tethering THANK YOU FOR THE HELP

So after contacting straight talk it seems my APN settings where to blame.
Upon opening the APN, I had to change APN from "vzwinternet" to "tracfone.vzwentp." Then save and make sure network mode was set to LTE/CDMA instead of global.
I noticed it returns to default "vzwinternet" after flashing any firmware thus making me have to put it back in. But that's no problem at all. Everything is currenly working and I now have tethering THANK YOU FOR THE HELP

G935V to G935U for AT&T
I have the Verizon S7 Edge G935V working on straight talk with their AT&T sim.
Had to change from CDMA to GSM then add the new APN settings.
The problem I have is the G935V doesn't have LTE band 17 which is used in my area.
My Nexus 5 with same sim using LTE Discovery app confirms band 17 but with S7 Edge G935V
I don't get it but a different connection and its very weak.
I would like to give this G935V to G935U a try. My S7 Edge G935V has Android 8.0
I have downloaded ODIN, Samsung S7 Edge drivers, and G935U w/Android 8.0 (AT&T) July 24, 2018
Has anyone done this recently on a G935V with Android 8.0 on it?
Will I get LTE band 17?
Do I loose any CDMA capabilities should I want to try it?
What's the down side of doing this?
How would I continue to get updates?
Thanks,
Ken
