my evo when I flash custom roms will always give me 1x instead of 3g icon... not sure why is there a fix of any kind?
Your probably not clearing everything when you flash the rom. Make sure you wipe everything when flashing a new rom.

Try going into espt. (you need to be on a sense rom) Enter ##3282#. Go to edit mode (you'll need your MSL number). Select 'evdo', and make sure that the preferred mode is set to automatic. I don't remember if it automatically reboots your phone when you commit the changes, but if not, then reboot it manually after you change it. That may help ya out.

Good call, only reason I didn't think this was the reason because most roms don't have the icon change when you lose evdo.

Right, but now that a lot of the Sense roms are incorporating that mod (the mod that shows if your truly on 3g or 1xx), some people are realizing that they aren't getting 3g signal at all. Some may have been on 1x the entire time, but then when they switch to a rom that shows what you're actually connected to, they realtize they're on 1x. That trick works for some people, but not all. I think it'll help out though.
Same 1x problem no matter what i do
Ive had this problem for about 5 months now and it doesnt matter what ROM i switch to or use it the same and going in EPST doesnt fix the problem neither when doing what you just said to do with the epst but when i do change it from AUTOMATIC to HRC it goes back on 3G but the downfall to that is that phone calls and text dont come in to your phone until you make a phone call so can anyone help solve the issue why is this happening? I have a white evo hardwhere 0003 used all kind of roms even stock and same thing and know alot about phones and been messing with them since windows mobile 6.1 HTC TOUCH for sprint soo... And my girls evo is and stays on 3GrevA. her in not rooted and is stock tho while mines is stuck eternally 1xrtt.

you may have facked your radio at some point? I would tinker with different ones till you get the sweet spot.

This. There may not be anything really wrong at all. I mean, it sucks to drop to 1X, but the stock ROM was lying to you.
Now, if you ONLY see 1X all the time, yeah, that's a problem. But an occasional switch over to 1X (particularly if you're in a tough signal area, like the core of an office building) is normal.
I am on mikG Rom I have had 3g before I updated radios got the new stock rom but at home I use a airwave for signal wonder if that messes anything up?

Have you tried one of the new Sense 3 roms? The reason I ask...when you go into 'ABOUT PHONE' in settings these versions give you a network option that others do not. Check to see what it is telling you are receiving 1X or evdo. If it says 1X...you may have the same issue I had...borked 3G. Once I got it replaced..I loaded up the 3.0 again just to check what it now said..and you betcha...evdo was now showing and not 1Xrxx (or whatever it was).
I tried everything as well for about three weeks..you name it..ROMS/RADIOS/STOCK/CUSTOM/ESPT even took it back to fully stock and then rooted again (lost my .76Hboot in doing so, but phone didn't work right anyway... I was grabbing for straws. Luckily it was just under the first year and paid the 35 to have it replaced (no warranty plan). I travel and no matter where I went the speeds were terrible..ya..the 1X/3G/EVDO in the notifications bar is just for looks...but you KNOW when your stuck on 1X...frustrating.
This may not be the case....but
kinda of a simple fix... first of all stock sense roms always show 3g even if you dont have it... if on every rom you flash you keep getting the 1x AND you alreeady tried radios, nv etc upgrades and those dont work, then it is your PRL not PRI... 2 different things... to fix it check out a thread under deveopement ..Deck.... cause there is a fix there, or google prl and pri update evo on google.. you will need msl and be on sense and be able to use espt

Hey guys,
After rooting my evo about 4 months back ive neen through many roms, kernels etc. I have only updated the radio and pri once recently but never touched the winmax but recently ive noticed horrible signal strength sometimes texts wont even go through and im getting around 1-2 bars max no matter if im at or out somwhere.
So my question is what should I do to improve this would updating wimax help? Since ive never updated it since I bought this phone.
Im on cyanogen b2 supersonic mod which I flashed over a nightly because thats what da instructiins said.
Kernel: snap 7.6 turbo

if its just recently i would see if any friends have signal issues in the same areas... could be a tower issue.
otherwise i would go back to a stock 2.2 odex (it will jave latest wimax and radio in it.) and see if that helps.
if nothing works... it very well could br your phone.

Updating the WiMax radio will have nothing to do with your 3G/voice reception. That's a totally separate radio.
+1 on v_lestat's suggestion. See if anyone else is having problems, if they aren't I would try these steps (continuing on to the next if the previous didn't work).
1. Update profile
2. Reset profile in epst ##3282# (Need MSL) Edit Mode>Data Profile>Menu>Restore
3. Experiment with different radios until you find one that works best in your area.

Thanks for thr reply but can you explain in a little bit of detail like what will the epst do? And whats "MSL" lol
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I saw someone post something today about a program on the market to get your msl. It's called MSL reader and will help you get that. You cannot edit details in the epst without it. If that doesnt' work, you can always call sprint and tell them you need it. There are a couple of threads on here for help if they aren't willing to give it to you.
In the epst you can change things pertaining to your data pofile, wimax settings, and misc advanced settings. DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING IN HERE UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE CHANGING. For what you need to do, just reset your user profile and then click OK to restart your phone.
I recently received a 004 hardware rev Evo with the latest HBoot. After rooting and flashing CM7RC0 (thank you Lithid) I found myself stuck in 1x RTT mode. Switching back to a Sense restored and enabled 3G once more. Going back to CM7, I once again would be stuck in 1x RTT.
The following solved my issue.
Flash a Sense based ROM to access ## codes and ...
1. ##3282#
2. Edit Mode
3. Enter MSL
4. EVDO
5. Preferred Mode
6. Set it to Automatic
7. Press Menu and commit modifications
8. Reboot
At this point you may go back and/or restore CM7 and 3G should be enabled.
To others stuck in 1xRTT mode in CM7, I post here hoping it helps others as it did me.

You win.
May be old, but just tried this on my Shift and worked like a charm. Happily now running 3G on CM7, thanks!
I switched to SalvageMod and I am having the same issue.
I will try this later tonight.
Just did this, phone is rebooting now.
Was interesting tho, EVDO was set to 'CDMA', hopefully now that it's set to 'Auto' I will get better speeds and actually get 3G while on my GB ROM.
Holy **** it actually worked. Excuse my language.
Before I was hitting MAX 300kbps down over "3g" on Sense and 1xRTT on SalvageMod.
Did the fix and now Im getting true 3G and hitting 1-1.6Mbit down and around 0.5Mbit up.
Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
So, I dont know if Im imagining things, but it seems like I have worse battery life after doing this. Any ideas?
I actually was locked on 1x RTT after I spent some time on one of the CM7 nightlies. Even after I flashed a number of Sense ROMs I was still locked, at that point I figured it was my old phone and so I got a replacement, I wish I had seen this first.

Yep, pretty sure battery is suffering now.
Or you could just download network from the market. Easier than flashing a sense Rom and going back.
Also the battery drain is from changing it from cdma. That was one of the battery fixes for the evo, to change it to cdma, most people did it after rooting their phones. Now you are changing also affecting battery life.

So network kinda broke my 3g, switched to cdma to try it out, then back to "auto". 3g icon is back but my data speeds are not
flashing to a sense rom right now to try this. Im on a 004 Evo as well running the latest MIUI and I noticed theres now way i can drive around from VA - Boston and not switch from 1x to 3g atleast once... hopefully this will change that.
Thank you! If this works it'll prove that it was an issue in AOSP ROM's. I was tired of people saying that Sense ROM's don't show true signal. It was a load of B.S. and I knew it was something else because I would flip between UD, CM, etc and it would still have the same issue.
Nice find dude. This should be a sticky or added to AOSP ROM releases until they can find out what's causing the issue in the ROM itself.
ok so i just implemented the fix. switching back to MiUI to see if it worked.
edit: now shows when i have 3g thanks. im guessing the extra battery drain is due to it now switching from 3g to 1x now. or constantly scanning?
Thanks a lot, finally can flash CM7 again.
So my brother has an EVO as well as mine, and he called me and told me he was having data issues lately, he brought it over to me and side by side his phone was getting 1x and mine had 3g, I figured his phone might just say it has 1x but really has 3g, ran a speed test and had 128kbps download speed when my phone would get 1mbps, and our phones were side by side...also it wouldn't connect to data at all sometimes....I tried updating all the radios and doing the ##data# thing and changed it to cdma only but still nothing changed, his phone is rooted and running synergy rls1, I also tried different roms, still nothing
Any help would be appreciated, I tried everything I read in other threads...my brother would really like to have his data working properly again...

What rom are you using. My wife has the 3d and she was getting great reception with hers. I am running cm7 and I was stuck at 1x for like 2 days. Rls1 Synergy hasnt been updated in a while. I dont like to bring Myn's work but give like Freshrom or MikG a try and see if anything improves. Always be sure to wipe everything and update PRL and profile.

try flashing to classic and see if the phone setting is forced to roam (under phone settings i think). i had similar issues when i played with the force roam feature in classic and didn't set it back before flashing another rom. couldn't get it to connect to 3g even though ##3282# > evdo was set to auto.
also, by setting ##3282# > evdo to cdma only, you are telling the phone to connect to 1x only.
When I flashed his phone to classic I made sure every setting was the same as mine, so I think I went through the roaming area but I will check again when he comes over

'm gonna try and make a long story short. Yesterday I purchased A S3 from ATT..Everything was working fine right out of the box no problems, lte and everything..Well earlier today I rooted my phone and everything seemed to be fine, I even flashed a rom and that seemed to be running fine also, but I noticed when I flashed the rom on the tool bar where it shows what data your running other than Wifi, it said H, don't know what that would be but I know it wasen't lte....So I thought maybe something was wrong with my phone, so I took it to the att store and showed them I wasen't getting 4glte..So they looked on the compyter and everything looked right, then they took it to the back where the service center was and flashed it back to factory....AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW??? It worked...I got 4glte right away..It said it right on the toolbar..I was so happy its working again like it should be...So I get home and root the phone again..everything went fine with the root, well it seemed like it BUT WHAT DO YOU KNOW...YOU GUESSED IT..NO 4gLTE...WHAT is going on here...and this was just off a fresh root no roms or anything...So I'm stuck I don't know what to do or if anyone else has expierienced this or knows a fix...I really want to keep my phone rooted so I can run roms and programs like Titanium Backup
So if anyone knows and can help I'd really appriciate it...thanks for your help and time...
I'm keeping my fingers crossed
As you can see from the picture you can see 4g on the status bar, but check out the speeds...and I'm in a great spot for lte..so something is wrong
Its kind of normal that lte dont work on some roms, you could just stay stock and it will all work, Im not sure why root would kill your lte, how are you rooting?

1st wrong thread, this has nothing to do with development, 2nd if ur getting 4g lte issues then speak to the company u got it from, because not alot of places can support lte atm its like a transition thats happenning 3rd what i can suggest you do is grab a tool like odin, and odin back to stock rom and then use snapdragon tool by mskip its the 2nd or 3rd from this forum up, and go from there and that should help u further on in getting back to normal , and if you're flashing jelly bean roms or what not, you have lte still but it'll show as 4g or what not, which rom have you flashed btw.

You need to check your APN settings and make sure you're using the proper LTE APNs for your carrier and make sure that LTE is available in your area 100%.
Also you need to enable LTE on the mobile connections screen within whatever ROM you flash.

It could also be that he has lte but the icons says 4G for lte I think it's the case for some roms. Because the phone companies made us believe that hsdpa+ was 4G when in fact it's more like 3.7G more or less. What I'm trying to say is did you do a speed test to make sure?
4G might just be lte after all.

lets blame the companies for skrewing everything up with toggles.
run a speed test and look at more info and see what it shows, also check your apn settings via settings/more settings and mobile network then access point names and then take a screenshot if possible by holding power + home button and post it up, because if u should have LTE service ur apns must be LTE otherwise you will be defaulted to regular apn which might throttle you like whoa well i know our ics doesn't do that but not that i hate anyone's ics, Nun, Ariel and Kyan all have done a good job in their ics's.
I don't know if this helps but go to settings and then about, then status and check network, most likely says UMTS or well it does for me on ALL 4.1.1 rom's. But, go to mobile networks and try to connect to another provider than yours, then when it says it cannot connect, re-connect to your own and I bet you will get HS+. Only problem is, if you toggle on wifi or reboot, you will have to do this all over again to retain the higher network connection.
I have not been able to come up with a solution yet and do not know if it is a 747m problem only or if it effects 747 as well.

I have downloaded and done a clean install of the latest ROM from Team-Venom "Wicked Sensations v2.0" First of all the ROM is so in depth, and runs smoother than any other ROM I have used in the last year. There is only one issue. The only way I can use mobile data is if I switch the mobile network to CDMA, 4G LTE does allow me to send and receive phone calls but no text messages, or any data whatsoever. . I have read all of Team Venom's thread, well most of it anyways, and I cannot find anyone else having this issue. I am aware of the rules of the forums, so I am posting this under the Q/A as not to bog down or step on anyone's toes, in the developers thread.
Is there a fix for the 4G data issue, or is it just my phone? I have tried everything I can think of such as..
Flash stock Kernal
Flashed the latest radios
flashed the latest PRL's (not sure what that would do but I did it anyways)
tried toggling airplane mode on and off.
Since nobody else is having this issue, I am not sure what else to try. also, when I am using LTE, I DO NOT have the 4G icon next to my signal bars, like I do when I am on 3G.
Before you ask, yes, I do in fact live in an area that does have 4G, I am in Kansas City Kansas.
Anyone with an idea or know how I would be grateful.
BEST ROM I HAVE EVER USED!!!!!!! :good:

I have read all of Team Venom's thread, well most of it anyways, and I cannot find anyone else having this issue. I am aware of the rules of the forums, so I am posting this under the Q/A as not to bog down or step on anyone's toes, in the developers thread.
Is there a fix for the 4G data issue, or is it just my phone? I have tried everything I can think of such as..
Flash stock Kernal
Flashed the latest radios
flashed the latest PRL's (not sure what that would do but I did it anyways)
tried toggling airplane mode on and off.
Since nobody else is having this issue, I am not sure what else to try. also, when I am using LTE, I DO NOT have the 4G icon next to my signal bars, like I do when I am on 3G.
Before you ask, yes, I do in fact live in an area that does have 4G, I am in Kansas City Kansas.
Anyone with an idea or know how I would be grateful.
BEST ROM I HAVE EVER USED!!!!!!! :good:

Well I guess this is what I get for having to deal with this 10 post rule. This would be so much better if I could just ask my question in the Rom's thread so people would ACTUALLY SEE IT!!!!!
Have you tried resetting you data? ##786#..
Edit: you will need your msl #..

Thanks for the replies all. I have done the suggested troubleshooting as follows
1: did a fresh install of the ROM (after wiping EVERYTHING first)
2. went through setup of the device (just to verify 4G was still not working, which it was not)
3. went to dialer and input ##486#
4. chose the reset option
5. entered my MSL # and then the phone did a factory reset.
When the phone came back up I had to go through the setup again, and had to turn on wifi to get through it because the data was still not working.
Also if anyone comes accross this and wants to know how to get the MSL # download a terminal emulator from the market and input "getprop ril.MSL"
Or check out this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28182339
Also while investigating the MSL further I found this possible solution-
"The phone needs to be re-provisioned as follows ##72786# or ##SCRTN# the phone may restart twice, after the restarts, launch a browser and type in your phone number on the prompt."
After following this, when I opened the browser I was not prompted to input anything I was only greeted with a connection error. :crying:
I am still searching for more answers. I am exploring ##DATA# but there is more in here than I am familiar with so I will hold of on this until I know what I am doing.
In the mean time 3G works so I am still able to use my phone just wish I could tether my 4G to my laptop.
Any other ideas are more than welcome.

Well, I just flashed v1.3 and it is working flawlessly, everything is working great. I just think my hardware version is conflicting with the latest v2.0 for some reason. I am out of ideas. I'll stay on v1.3 for now I guess.

I have had the same exact issue and have not found a fix yet. It only happens with certain roms.

I have downloaded and done a clean install of the latest ROM from Team-Venom "Wicked Sensations v2.0" First of all the ROM is so in depth, and runs smoother than any other ROM I have used in the last year.

Tha'ts weird, I just checked mine and it says global network. I switched it toe CDMA LTE and it works. Even sent a test text message to the wife phone and have no issues.. O here might be the issue. If you go to ##3282# under view then advance, see if LTE is enabled or disabled.. If it is enabled then I bet that is why you do not get 4G service.. I believe LTE does not have 4G service just 3G.. I have done this and my 4G went to 3G after enableing it.. If you have it disabled you will get 4G service..
That is a good idea but even then you have to wait five min. inbetween lol why couldn't I remember my old login that would be way easier

Well I have finally been able to get 4G data working on v2.0!!!
1. Wipe EVERYTHING
2. Flashed sensations v1.3
3. Reboot phone into recovery
4. Flashed v2.0
5. BEFORE REBOOTING OUT OF RECOVERY, Flash latest sprint radios
6. Reboot phone one last time
This has made 4G data work for me.
Im in the car right now, will try to remember to post a link to the latest radios. And PRL Updates. Those are nice to have too.

This is what I did and it seemed to work. I switched to cdma only then update profile and prl. Then when I switched back to cdma/lte everything seemed to work fine.
