Brand New Rooted Evo With AOSP Rom Now No 3G Help!!

Alright I just rooted my bros brand new evo right out of the box
for some reason when i install an AOSP Rom I keep getting a 1x connection no 3g.
if anybody could help that would be great
His has the 2.10 hboot
everything works on a sense rom but when i install a AOSP rom (CM or MIUI) no 3g
please get back to me asap

Toggle airplane mode. Does it come on and then switch to 1X? Make a nandroid backup and switch to a sense rom if you have a backup. Once in the sense rom update prl and profile.

im having the same problem on MIUI, 3g doesnt come on at all after toggling airplane mode, i even went to a sense rom and updated profile and prl. as well as completely reactivating the phone, the 3g just wont stay on, and ive yet to find a fix for it.

It is possible that you've never had 3G. On the stock rom, the EVO always shows the 3G icon even if you aren't connected to 3G.

+1. On sense ROMS, it always shows 3g, if the data connection is turned on. It is only capable of showing 3g, even if you aren't actually connected to it. In the newer AOSP ROMs, they have the capability to show what you are ACTUALLY connected to at the time, so the AOSP rom is showing you the truth, what you're actually connected to, while the Sense ROM is lying to you, showing that you're always connected to 3g, when in fact, you're not. Flash the sense ROM that shows you're on 3g. Run a speedtest a few times, see what your avg download and upload speed are. Flash over to the AOSP rom, and repeat the same test. I bet they are the same or extremely similar, even though one shows you're on 3g, and the other shows 1x.

No, what is happening is that the AOSP roms DO NOT have the kernel for the new hardware, this is why you are getting no 3g. Go back to the latest sense and wait.

Like the guys said above is because of sense only showing 3G which is really dumb, like at my house I get 4 out of 6 bars in sense and only 2 out 4 in aosp roms and still has the same speed and not problem with phone calls , go out and check if 3G ever comes on and make sure your are is cover by 3G coverage

im on older hardware and the 3g turns on, but when i switch to wifi or turn of the 3g the 3g wont turn back on. ive read all about how the 3g icon and all that is different than on a sense rom but im literally not getting any 3g connection.

I've been running CM7 since it was being compiled by lithid. At some point my 3G broke and I tried to ask for help but never could find a complete answer. At some point someone said the words "##data#" and "call sprint." Below is a step by step guide to what I did to fix 3G and it's been working through numerous wipe/flashes since. If someone already posted this information I apologize. This has worked for me and at least one other person that I know of, so hopefully it doesn't ruin anyone's phone.
1. Download MSL Reader from market, run it and write down results.
2. Nandroid current rom.
3. Flash cauklins format all
4. Flash latest rooted OTA (I found one in the wiki)
5. Boot OTA (I skipped all of the google login/set up stuff)
6. Enter ##3282# (##data#) in to the dialer.
7. Menu will popup select "Edit Mode"
8. Enter MSL when it asks for password.
9. Tap "Data Profiles"
10. Tap Menu button, then "Restore"
11. Phone will reboot in 10 seconds or you can click ok.
12. Hands free activation will come up shortly after phone reboots, then PRL update and Firmware update. (It found no frimware updates I think because I used the latest OTA) Let it process all.
13. Power phone off.
14. Boot to bootloader (hold power + vol down)
15. Select recovery.
16. Flash format all again.
17. Nand restore.
18. Enjoy working 3g.
I did all this the first time on the phone with sprint. As soon as I booted the OTA I had 3g again, I just told them it was broken and they gave me the steps. I just did it all again while typing this to verify that it works rather than try to rely on my memory of what i did.
Hope this helps. I also did the ##gpsclrx# while I had that sprint garbage installed.
If these are instructions to seriously break your phone, can someone who knows better than me please correct me. So far I've had no problems, other than fixed 3G

SgtUSMC method worked for me. Great stuff man, thanks!

Rooted and now no sprint service

I rooted my phone and loaded Caulkin's rom. Then I noticed I didn't have any service bars in an area I normally have full coverage. I tried other roms with the same results. Now I've unrooted and gone back to stock 3.70. I still have no service. I can place calls, but no calls come through, as if I'm in a dead zone. As soon as I place a call the bars come back up to there normal level for the area I'm in. When I rooted I used the autoroot 2.3 method. I have hardware version 004 with hboot 2.02. Has anybody heard of this issue, and is there a fix? Or do I need to consider going to sprint? Thanks in advance.

Hmmm I'm a newbie but sounds like u need to update Ur radios id search the board for install radios and see if that's the problem

Go http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485 and download and flash the latest radio; it should help.

Try updating your profile and prl from the settings menu. If you used the 3.70 ruu your radio will be up to date but you'll still have an old prl.

Profile and PRL
I've updated the profile, prl and I'm on the latest radio. I can still place calls intermittently, sometimes I have to reboot to make a phone call. But I still can't receive any phone calls. Thanks.

No 3G or 4G - 1x only - No Nandroid Backup HELP!

So my friend rooted his Evo with Unrevoked. I verified s-off.
He copied a PC36IMG onto his SD which turns out was some 2.1 rooted stock ROM. After doing that his phone could not make/receive calls/text or connect to 1x/3G/4G. Basically an expensive phone that has no phone functions. Everything else works (WiFi included). He flashed http://link.geekfor.me/rootedromzip onto his phone from http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc...vo-install-clockwork-recovery.html#post165998.
When I looked at it, he still did not have a custom recovery so I flashed Amon RA PC36IMG. Full factory wiped data/cache/dvalik. Flashed Synergy RC1. Phone still could not make/receive calls and was getting Error 16 when trying to call. Called Sprint and they reprovisioned phone and fixed calls and texting. Noticed his phone is stuck on 1x and cannot connect to 3G when my phone next to his works fine. Did not test 4G yet since I have poor 4G coverage in my area. Cannot update his profile - just sits there like something is happening but it never completes.
What are his options here? Is it a bad radio or something that we can fix? Can we flash a stock rooted ROM and regain 3G? Remember, no nandroid was made unfortunately.

I would try flashing the latest radios just to be sure. And tell your friend to always make a nandroid backup to avoid this problem in the future.

Well his first time flashing. I think he mistakenly thought the PC36IMG as a custom recovery but it was actually an entire ROM.
Didn't have a chance to nandroid. I'm instructing him how to update newest radio combo and seeing what happens.
Update: Flashed latest combo radio. Updated profile and PRL. Still stuck on 1x even after reboot. Is he hosed? Does Sprint have to do something on their end to fix his EVDO? 4G isn't working either by the way.
Update 2: Wimax Keys Checker - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.joeykrim.wimaxkeys says that RSA Key is present. Relieved that he didn't lose his RSA key. Just can't figure for the life of me why he can't connect to 3G or 4G. Not sure where to go from here? Maybe trying to flashing latest stock rooted RUU? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1110733

Bumping for some attention.

Hey, happened to me a couple of times, it will come back. Maybe wipe everything again, have you tried ##data# and entering msl key, wait... Have you updated his data profile in settings

Hello.....did that work for ya?

Ok, was on the road when I had wife reply...lol.. When you rebooted the phone,did you wipe cache,and dalvik. Then try updating profile? It sounds weird,but has worked for me,without even updating profile. I have had no coverage before after flashing a Rom,also,did just that,and it came back. If rsa keys are present,that is good. If you would be kind enough to reply,whether fixed or not,would appreciate it,anyway,gonna move on...

Did he try updating his profile & prl
Sent from my criffvo

Updating profile and PRL doesn't work. It keeps attempting to update but it is never successful.
I haven't had a chance to get his phone to just try reflashing a new ROM or stock ROM to see what will happen though.
He says using ##data# and entering his MSL code and changing EVDO to automatic doesn't work either.

I would start over again ... wipe completely with Calkulin's "fomat all" zip and flash a rooted stock rom like xhausx. Once the phone boots up, call Sprint and have them walk you through provisioning everything. Once all is well, then move into whatever custom stuff he wants.

You took the words from my mouth!
Is he Flashing the RUU's or just running them through the computer? Normally, you sync your phone or through hBoot and then start the program, try flashing stock Froyo and then factory reset once flashed, it helps clear out traces of old roms etc. If you need anymore help feel free to ask, I would be more than happy!

I don't think it worked.
Calkulin's Format, flashed Odexed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133379.
It showed 3G but I think it was misleading. Wiped and flashed to evodeck and it went back to showing 1x. My phone has 3G showing on evodeck next to his so he definitely has 3G coverage.
I guess it's just time to call Sprint for a re-provision? Does it have to be on a Sense ROM for them to reprovision?

you dont need Sprint to provision, just get your MSL code and do it your self plus I would do a search for people who may of had similar issues and see what they did. Now if that does not work then why dont you check what your network settings are.. See if its set to CDMA(Auto) I remember my Touch Pro I could of set it to 1x maybe something is getting stuck. I think its in ##3282 you check it and I also remember an app on the market called network that did it for you as well.
If that does not work then flash 3.70 radios and then a 3.70RUU and start from scratch.

He already tried ##data#. He can change his EVDO to automatic but it doesn't stay that way.

Alright I don't know how I fixed it but it's fixed.
Just cannot get 4G now. Wimax keys are present. It keeps scanning and cannot get connect. Previously could get 4G at these locations.

I am running EVO as donor/target phone, my is only 1x speed, no matter which rom I try
Synergery, Mik, Stock-Rooted, differ kernal, different PRL, check the data profile Automatic, Try restore but can not cat automatically update, still need to go qpst to update my profile. I have been working on this for two weeks. I went back to my orig phone, it show ev most of time, the speed is must faster than my evo. Searc all over from goole, still no luck, Anyone any idea to try

i know this post is somewhat old. but Making a back up wont take hardly and extra time! always always make one unless you have 100% reliable roms already backed up.

MetroPCS PRL ICS issue

Is there a way to install a prl in zip format through recovery?
I installed ICS ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544181 Its a great rom but I now have an outdated PRL file. Which means I'm now stuck in 1x land. I miss my 3G!
The ## codes do not work on this rom so QPST & CDMA are not an option. I am trying to find any way to update my PRL without needing to connect my EVO to my pc.
1. My 1st thought was an app that would update the prl. (But I can't find the one I had on my old GB ROM)
2. Flashable zip file containing the prl so I can install in recovery.
If anyone has an idea please let me know. BTW I have the latest PRL on my SD.

I found what I thought was a solution here.
http://www.goodandevo.net/2011/09/ho...tc-evo-4g.html
Its tedious but it worked for me. 3G goodness. (Or so I thought)
Basically downgrade to Sense rom, install PRL with QPST, then NANdroid back.
Now I am trying every prl I can find and my BIG issue is now if I use a prl that has 3G it wont use 1x at all. (If outside 3G range.) I end up w/ no data at all when it doesn't say 3G. leaving it on a prl that uses 1x I always have data, albeit slow.
FYI, I do not have 3G only checked on settings on QPST. Please someone offer me a route to take so I can have my 3G & 1x!

Had this same question and resorted to the above referenced method of going back to a version that can goto diag mode, like 4.67 and flash prl there and then flash back.

Worked like a charm thanks a lot!!!!!

Same issue with hotspot using super g2 rom.
I tried updating PRL but my data still goes on and OFF. Is there another hotspot mod I can use with this rom? Any help would be appreciated.

As a bump to this thread, and to keep the forums tidy, I, too, am having issues with SuperG2
I flashed it and it worked beautifully but I was unable to get any data service. I tried updating PRL/Profile but that would not work. Kept giving me a network error.
That being said, I finally got data to work (beyond me, not sure how this happened but I did NOT get PRL/Profile to update) and was using it merrily until I began to restore some files I had backed up via Titanium.
I rebooted to get the data from these files to run smoothly but after a reboot I lost all connection. It told me that my service was disabled.
I reflashed the ROM but am back to square one - unable to updated my PRL/Profile and cannot get any data, even tho the LTE logo is at the top and spinning. WiFi tethering works and I can access the internet in this way, but not in any other way.
I am being forced to go back to stock =(
Any help would be appreciated.

Connect to wifi then update the profile and prl (can be done at home if you have wifi, or mcdonalds, or starbuck, or anywhere that has open wifi)

Similar Issue
Running SuperG2, comming from Milestone1. I cannot seem to get the WiFi tether to work on SuperG2. It worked great on Milestone1. I tried the update PRL while Wifi tether is active but to no avail. I'm not sure if it's related but my signal kinda sucks too. Where I normally get 4g now I only get 3g with sparatic 4g and I also loose my signal altogether at times. I have to activate airplane mode and then deactivate it to get my signal back. I would go back to Milestone1 but SuperG2 is the frontline. Need to keep moving forward. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
