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.

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#..

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.

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.

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.

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.
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.

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

Check your APN setting. Under setting- more setting- mobile network - APN.
What ROM are you on now?
If not call your carrier operator.

I don't have that option, task&ktoonsez aokp jellybean. Had problems on cm10 nightlies and this. This ROM is epic awesome but I can't not have data. I had stock ROM rooted on stock lf9 radio, never un-rooted and updated. Not a single problem for months. Put cm10 on and within the first week, no data. Re flashed, still none. Flashed all 4 radio versions, then lost phone service. Flashed aokp last Monday, good until I woke up this morning. Went to bed last night with 20mbps 4glte connection, phone never moved, woke up with no data. I can get 3g once every 2 hours or so at a bandwidth of .6kbps ( speed test certified).
Try calling your network operator. Or you can reflash stock firmware and see if problem persist.
But CM10 by default has a wrong APN setting (For me) and I just change according to the right one and it is perfect now.
But reflash stock.one and try.

Data is back. titanium backup of user apps+data, backed up the built in launcher to SD, wiped, flash, gapps. Data working and phone is like I never left. Going to use all of the dev logging and track what I do day to day to see what the hold up is here.

TO ALL!!!! this is a call to action. I too, like many others are experiencing unacceptable data speeds while on 3G and in great reception while using the Galaxy S III. the speeds I should be receiving are 1.5-3 MB/s but instead I am receiving around 128Kb/s in the city and within excellent service. We all have to pay a 'Premium Data Add-On' charges just to own these phones and this is unacceptable. Please write an Email to [email protected], vice president of customer experience at sprint and let him know what you are experiencing. Maybe if enough pissed off customers write, they will finally listen!
I don't believe this has been posted for the e4gt but came across this error after flashing AOCP ROM and it stuck on everything I flashed afterwards. Roaming would not work, at all. I spent 3 days without signal at work for 10 hours a day.
I tried clean installs of roms I knew worked, I tried to Odin back to stock, I tried to nand back, nothing seemed to work, until the guys over in the SGS3 forums found the answer.
Go to settings, and toggle roaming on and off. Not roaming guard, but roaming itself.
So simple it was laughable, but it works.
Again, I didn't see this posted anywhere in our forums, but if it has been please don't flame, I only wanted to share the fix. I don't remember who it was that found it but they definitely deserve huge thanks!:beer::thumbup:
Edit- I am in no way bad mouthing or otherwise ripping on AOCP, I think it is a stellar rom and would be running it as a dd if not for this bug. Just wanted to make that clear!
Unfortunately this isn't limited to AOKP, found this out the hard way on an int'l trip last month. Also replied to this on Sprint Communities earlier today.
What Prl do you have? Mine is 60690 and roaming works fine. I also use roam control to force roam in some areas where I know signal is bad.

Roaming does work fine - if you have the boxes checked. If not it won't even turn on - as I learned the hard way. (Had to wonder why it worked fine for the missus and not me until I realized I uncheck the boxes out of habit.)
Sorry, I guess there was a miscommunication, or rather an omission on my part. The issue I ran into originated after flashing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1942162 this ROM. The options to roam are there, but do not work, it always goes back to home only network. Then after wiping data, and both caches and flashing to other roms the issue persisted. My phone refused to roam. The fix in the op corrected the problem.
Sorry about any confusion :beer:

It just started today. Im on CM10 and i would occasionally lose a 4g connection and would have to swtich the mode from lte/whatever/whatever to the other mode...and then back to reconnect..but thats not working anymore....
Edit: This is killing me because I use it for home internet. Im paranoid simply because this is the first month ive used 4G ever...meaning i never even turned lte mode on in the mobile data settings..i didnt even know it was in my area until the beginning of this month.. Im just wondering if me toggling it on and off to get it to connect through CM10 caused this... Thats why im coming here..to smarter people then myself begging and pleaing for assistance and guidance.
Could it perhaps be that sprint was just testing my area for 4g?? OR how long does tower maintenance usually take.. Or that they cut me off from using 4g after using 30gb so far? I mean i have an unlimited plan so it shouldnt be an issue
No they didnt cut you off, they would send a letter before doing that
Second, it usually takes about 2-3 weeks for maintenance to complete on a tower. If you're really concerned, call Sprint and ask if they're in the process of upgrading towers in your area. Who knows, they might even give you some sort of "we're sorry for the inconvenience" credit

Im eyeballing this thread like a hawk for opinions and posts like this. Thanks for your input.
When I first used 4G It was actually by accident on the CM10.1 Nightly. I pressed the Mobile data toggle square in the settings and i saw 4g, I was thrilled that it was in my area. Switched back to stable CM10 and checked if it was up and running. and much to my surprise it wasnt some weird graphical error just showing the 4g icon. It was legit working.
Still isnt working on any rom ive flashed here. Now though since the issue began.
What are the chances in the short time ive used it, that i could have possibly damaged my phones abaility to connect to 4G? Sorry if that question is dumb.
Very little. I doubt that its a hardware issue, because if it were, you would see other things like core apps FCing, the other radios taking longer to connect, maybe even hot reboots when trying to turn on 4G
Like I said, when you have time call Sprint. Most likely the towers are being worked on and they turned it off meanwhile
You might wanna also wanna get Sensorly (from the Play Store) just to doublecheck for LTE in your area

When 4G lte came on in my area it was on for a couple of weeks then they shut it down for 4 or 5 days then it came on and it's been on for almost 3 months. Just fyi this might be what's going on.

Wow thanks guys, you have put my mind at ease about all this. I was just so paranoid that I had specifically done something to the radio. So ill make a call to sprint to see whats up.
Thanks given to all !

I'm experiencing the similar issues, though I flashed over a ASOP Rom that has parts from cm10.1 though the Rom was ported from Verizon, but 4g worked perfectly fine, then when I flashed back to cm10 it stopped working. I'm debating on flashing back to that rom and see if it also does not have access to 4g at this time.
Edit/Update: I flashed back to my stock rom with root then flashed an updated MA6 Rom, updated the PRL, Profile and such, still no 4G. Decided that I'd mess with a few 4g settings, still problems. Then I flashed back to CM10 and my 4G works again.

Do that and post the results here, i will do the same. Sprint was less then helpful with this situation not giving me heads or tails over the phone.

Right before you posted your reply I had updated my post.

I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1910947
odex MA6, MA6 firmware and Stock MA6 kernel
and I accessed the LTE Mode Menu from the following

I don't think the LTE Mode menu needs to be utlized but I did see some interesting settings in there.

Thats a bit of work, so this could possibly be some janky setting on my phone still huh?
EDIT: I dont have my stock rom backed up. Dont know what happened to it. Could you explain what exactly I need to do to achieve the results you have posted man?
Sorry for the late reply. It could possibly be a setting on your phone. I say make a backup of your rom, flash a stock based rom, kernel & firmware, if it's not ma6 find an update or one based on it. Update the prl and profile. See if you can get 4g working on tw, if not then either restore back to cm10 or try messing with the lte settings, their are some that allow you to enable or disable and such. I also do recall a setting for ehpd 4g or lte 4G. After messing with them try restoring back to cm10. If you take a picture of the lte menu I can look and tell you what settings I clicked.
Edit: Just looked at the link try the lte force cause I know I pushed that button as well as a few others.

Could you suggest a good stock based rom perhaps, sorry for the inconvenience. Because like as soon as i got my S3 i rooted and installed cm10. I didnt have stock for more then 5 minutes.

I'm looking through the forums and so far the only stock with root only is what I linked above but those are mianly updates. One Possibility if its not a problem I'd sugged Unrooting with odin and flashing a stock rom, reroot then flash the update linked above, then just make a Backup Called Stock with root MA6 or something. I'll keep looking though.

Unrooted, stocked it up. 4g didnt work. Re rooted..installed cm10 stable 4g worked. Seems like a consistent fix for this bug. Solved.

I just had this issue after flashing that Rootbox ROM which was ported from Verizon. I performed the above steps and everything's working fine.
THANKS!
