Maybe simple mobile doesn't support the lte bands on the 995

I have the same problem, but I'm on Verizon postpaid. I've tried APN settings, different apps, everything. The only thing that works is to use Verizon Messages + app, but I hate that thing. I'm on the newest Lineageos, what ROM do you use?

It must be a sprint issue then. I would call customer service and complaint about it.

I've had this problem quite a lot recently. Oddly, it seems to only affect messages coming from one or two certain people on a given day.
Yes, me too. Completely random.

This could be caused by incorrect APN (Access Point Names) setting. Happened to me in the past.
These can be configured via Settings > Wireless & Networks > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names.
Google APN Settings for (Your Service Provider) and check to see if you have the right setup.
Do you use Google Voice? Google Voice has Sprint integration so if you selected that GV will intercept your incoming text messages

[Request] Service/Hidden Menu Codes

Anybody know any service menu codes?

In particular one to bring up a menu to turn off LTE.
Cheers
You can dial 3845#*(model number)#
This brings you to the hidden menu and allows you to disable LTE and more. I used it to disable thermal throttling and fast dormancy. My version is the Att one so I dialed 3845#*800#
Hope that helps.

Hi to all!!
Sorry to bring up an old post but I thought it was the right place to do so!
I have a 801 converted to 803 (rooted with lolipop installed 5.0.2) SP is Videotron in Montreal, Canada... The hidden menu was accessible before but now, I can't acces it... Tells me It can't connect, incorrect IHM...
Any ideas on how I could solve this problem?!
Thanks in advance for the help!
Hi I ve AT&T d800 5.0.2 with root. I remove AT&T adress book with titanium backup and now there is telephone contact. When I go contacts settings and contacts to display there is not telephone bar there. How can I fix this problem Thanks
Open your phone’s dial pad and type the following code: 3845#*<model number>#. For example, type-
3845#*800# (for At&T model)
3845#*801# (for T-Mobile variants)
3845#*802# (for European variants)
3845#*803# (for AT&T and Canadian variants)
5689#*980# (for Sprint LG G2)

Search Google for TMobile or StraightTalk APN depending on the carrier you're using.

4.4 and Non-VZW carriers

These issues apply to T-Mobile users installing the current build of 4.4 (and possibly other GSM carriers but I don't have an ATT SIM to test). Motorola is aware of the issue. I read these forums pretty thoroughly and I've been answering these questions all over so I figured I'd just put them all one place. Issues as follows:
- Devices with the LTE radio active cannot send SMS
- Devices with the LTE radio active cannot send MMS (Carrier/Settings dependent)
- Devices with the LTE radio active cannot make phone calls and instantly disconnects on call attempt.
Urban Legends:
- Stock tethering does not work - I have personally tested on TMO and know it does work. Yer doin' it wrong.
Fixes
Easiest fix for now if you're on a device running 4.4 and want to... you know... be able to use your phone... is to use phone information and switch the radio mode over to GSM Only (not the auto one). This fix is a little finicky because if the phone realizes it's not running in the mode selected on your mobile networks screen it will override and turn LTE back on if you haven't selected UMTS only.
Full steps are:
Mobile network settings - Change network mode to LTE/GSM/UMTS
Mobile network settings - Select network UMTS Only
Install app linked below
Open Phone Info and select GSM Only
Phone info apk for sideload - http://www.mediafire.com/download/284l17ry2ok1yuk/Phone_info_1.3.apk
I'll update this thread as I discover more issues or as people post issues that can be replicated below.
Thank you. Finally I got the LTE turn off.
I gotta switch the mobile mode to LTE/UMTS/ gsm and select network as UMTS only. Then use phone info choose gsm only.

It was selecting GSM Only in Phone Info. Switched it to GSM auto (PRL) and I got HSPA+ back.
but Seriously dude. thanks for this info. I was tired of using my Moto G while my MAXX was just collecting Dust.
Edited the OP for a more clear fix. Thank you to vuphongkkk for pointing out the UMTS only.
I'm on T-Mobile and live in an HSPA+ refarmed area (NYC), but there are places I go on a regular basis that aren't refarmed. I set it on "WCDMA preferred" and voila, I have both 2 & 3G connectivity, with preference given to 3G.
I can't post links, but this XDA thread explains it in more detail I think: ... showthread.php?t=688492
Vodafone confirmed for anyone wondering.
H+ for UMTS only,
Edge for global.
No Sim adjusting at all
Just popped a sim in today. Getting LTE but really hating the call fail bug. Gotta place the call twice repeatedly to get it through
Maxx'd out Kit Kat
Update: Having major glitches when running LTE, pretty deal breaking for a full switch to tmo right now. Eagerly awaiting the new OTA to see if it fixes it. Seems to have major issues on the HSPA/LTE handoff. How did it function prior to 4.4?
Maxx'd out Kit Kat
On 4.2.2 was working fine, the phone just switch from LTE to 3g itself when you need to make phone call. But I had problem on 4.2.2 that if I connect to WiFi then it'll take awhile to get the LTE back. Normally an hour after out of WiFi range

Maybe thats the problem I was having? I just ended up with a 4.2.2 phone after my 4.4 got destroyed. LTE wouldnt work for me but I was in the house after switching off wifi...hmmm
Arcanexvi what's the best APN to use for 4.2.2? And do I have to have phone info installed or can I uninstall it? Since I changed all the settings to get hspa+ I forgot what the default settings were. =\ whoops and thanks for all your help so far

You can uninstall it if you want. It's extremely small though so no reason to do so unless you just don't want to see the icon. Uninstalling will NOT reset your settings.

Thanks! I messed myself all up though.
In android mobile network settings should I have network mode as global, LTE/CDMA or LTE/gsm/umts?
If its LTE/gsm/umts do I still use gsm only under select network?
And if I leave phone info installed do I have to change anything on there for LTE to work? Phone info seems to change the network selection in the app on its own so I just stopped messing with it. Thanks and sorry to be a pain

If you on 4.4 you don't have to change anything to have LTE work on your phone. Follow step by step from the beginning of the thread to turn off LTE

I'm on 4.2.2 and already changed settings. So was curious on what the original settings on 4.2.2 are to get LTE working with APN settings
Sent from my XT1080 using xda app-developers app
4.2.2 rarely get LTE data. Choose network mode as LTE/gsm/UMTS . select network as automatic. Don't use the phone info. If you already use the phone info app in this thread then use it again to switch back to LTE/gsm.. Or the option that has evething.
Remember to add APN fast.t-mobile.com
But as I mentioned, 4.2.2 has some problem with the radio , so it rarely pick up LTE

Oh well in that case I might as well leave it lol. Thanks for the info
Sent from my XT1080 using xda app-developers app
Just to add another data point, I have a Droid Mini on stock 4.2.2. I'm connecting to t-mobile with the listed apn info, global and auto. I have LTE the vast majority of the time.
Cheers!

I just can't get my 2g working on roaming. Some help here please! I've tried all the APN settings, no use.

I have the roaming plan active. Even tried my sim on a friend's cell phone and it works perfect. Yes, I have used AOSP Roms only. Have not tried different roaming operators though, because had just my sim. Trying out different apn settings too.
