It was mentioned on the Miui for Ion thread that using a non LTE baseband allows the 3g/2g toggle to work.
Prior to testing this, I flashed the new 6.1.E.3.7 kernel to try the xzxperience rom. My 3.2.8 miui was running with this kernel before I flashed zxz, even though miui is meant for the 6.1.E.2.68 kernel. Either way, one of the roms was running with a non suggested kernel.
After testing zxz, i went back to miui to test basebands to make the 3g/2g toggle work. Problem being that when i flash the non lte baseband, then check "about phone" in settings, it doesn't change. I will sacrifice lte to toggle from 3g(4g?)to 2g for Battery life. Any help?

Title = Question.
The closest I got was the MIUI ROM that's up on the front page of the development forum right now. It was so close to working. It said "No SIM Card" but the calls worked!! And the -36 baseband was recognized! The only problem was that with that status message, the phone would not allow me to save any APN settings, therefore I could not get data access.
I also tried it with the -42 baseband. These should be the newest AT&T specific basebands available that are AT&T specific.
The real problem is, I can install 62 just fine, but it only supports the slower HSPA data speeds as these are for the R800i.
I don't really expect a solution but I thought I'd ask

I am running CM9 (Cyanogenmod9) FXP127 with Mjolnir Kernel and modules, and I have hspa+ and it is a great ICS rom in my opinion:laugh:

Thanks! Do you use a specific CM9 build?
Also, which baseband do you use?
Do you have the call volume problems that many CM9 builds have? What about your proximity sensor?

I run FXP127 which I beleive was released fairly recently, Video does not work... ALTHOUGH if after installation you flash the Mjolnir4 Kernel and the modules (wont get wifi if you dont install the modules) the video works fine... the only problems I am having is the proximity sensor (just realized that today) as long as you dont leave the number pad up and close it when you dont need it, it doesnt bother me much. I am however going to research a fix for it this weekend.
baseband -62 It runs at the same speed as with at&t's newest BB I flashed back and forth from stock to CM9 ran speed test results are identical

Thanks again. The proximity sensor is one of those really tricky things. I don't mind Bluetooth audio not working, and other minor things like that. Video does have to work for me.
Actually I never had a problem with a non-working proximity sensor, except for Skype handling it very poorly. So I basically need it to work.
I have gotten all ICS roms that I've tried working on my AT&T play 4G(lol 4g). On some I may manually set the APN. I've tried KA11-14 Rom, Xdarkmario's Rom in .42 & .62 Firmware with Doomkernel ICS beta v.3, & CM9(can't remember which build) with CM's Kernel & recommended FW. I haven't tested for differences in speeds(data), but I got the H signal on all.
Edit** In NY area I hear that the. 42 FW with -56 baseband gets better call reception & less drops then newer .62 fw.

I have rooted my rogers i747m and installed [ROM] AOKP(Jellybean 4.2.1 )Task & Ktoonsez (1/13) (AT&T/Rogers) . after couple days of usage, i just noticed I do not have LTE icon anymore.. I have HSPA and 3G instead. Then I flashed [ROM][JB][4.1.1][VLDLK4] Stock SGS3 TouchWiz ROM / Rooted / Debloated (12/06/2012) I got LTE back. these too roms got huge different speed test result on same servers. Would some one tell me why?
sorry for my english... thanx in advance
I think I solved the problem by looking at this post

on AOKP and CM10 roms usualy 4G is LTE i found, but when i have flashed roms in past i have had HSPA and 3G so i too would like to know if there is a modem we can flash etc..
also on rogers 1747m thanks
Make sure your APN is correct. Also, it uses Rogers #1 by default instead of Rogers LTE. So that's another thing to look into.
If both those things still don't fix it, you might have to test different modems.
Hey guys, I try to do my research before posting (this is my first post) but I am stuck on this one.
I have:
PrimoU
Llior's CM9 Rom
Titanium Kiss kernel (ICS)
on Koodo (Canadian Provider)
Problem:
I was running the latest Hellboy kernel, but noticed I had better GPS signal with KISS, so I flashed back to KISS to see if It improved the GPS. It did, but now I have no service! I tried restoring to my last Nandroid, but still have the same problem.
WiFi works, but I have no cellular network connection. This is my daily use device so I would love to get some help on this one if anyone has some ideas. For now I am stuck texting on my old optimus one.
Confused!
Thanks in advance!

Well, like it's on: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1757323 for CM9, DONT FLASH THE BOOT.IMG INSIDE THE ZIP, and later, use Maxwen... - and that's a http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1954967
Also, on the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1765687, it is almost in the first row: IMPORTANT for CM users
If you want to use CM or a CM based ROM choose the correct kernel! CM9 needs a different ramdisk."
On DL web page: http://www.mediafire.com/?lo2ctaplonbdh you'll see a lot of kernels for CM9 - it's not always the latest on that will work with your phone. Try them...
Just courious - why are you on CM9?
I made sure not to flash the boot.img from inside the zip and always ensured I used a CM9 kernel which I flashed before installing a rom. I ran CM9 with the KISS kernel originally as it was what was recommended at the time. Upgraded to HELLBOY to try out new kernel features but reverted to see if the GPS worked any differently. (Tangent: It SEEMED to be better with KISS, but i could be wrong...)
I like CM9 for the stability and less glitchy video/pano modes, which I use often.
I have since gone back to square one.
Tried CM10 with CM10 hellboy. No signal
Tried CM9 with CM9 hellboy. No Signal.
I'm at a loss as to what could be the problem...

I don't know to much about other carriers, but does your phone require a sim?
Yes. It requires a sim.
Tried the sim in my old p500. Sim card works.
Power off the phone and remove the sim for some time(10~15mins).
It always works for me
Or,there may be a problem in the sim slot.

Thanks. Tried that, but no luck.
There is no way I could have messed with the radio or baseband by flashing a kernel, is there?

One more thing that you can try:
- flash stock rom
If you don't have signal with stock rom, might be hardware failure. If you still have warranty, just go and replace it...
Not sure if this is related to the kernel or the ROM I'm using (noob here), so any advice would be appreciated.
I'm currently running CM7.2 with a 2.6.32.9-FXP kernel on my MK16a. I noticed the phone wasn't picking up 3G networks, so I rechecked the phone settings. The "Model Number" says MK16i, which of course uses different UTMS bands than the 16a.
Do I need to flash a different kernel in order to get the 3G to come up? Thanks!
Hello guys, i am on the last slim beam stable 4.3 rom 10/27/13 build.
The problem i am having is that i think i am suffering from data drops on the rom.
I noticed when trying to play my iheart and satellite radio. It would play and just stop.
I would see signal bars and the 4g symbol but no data. I thought it was my location so i restored my tweak rom backup and i had no problems with using either program. I like this rom so i am just wondering if it is something i could do to get past that issue.. Thanks in advance..

Check your APN settings and if they are incorrect or missing, add the correct info manually. If the slim beam rom is based on the 4.3 Samsung Touchwiz roms that have been released lately you need to flash the T889UVALJ1 modem for now until we get our update. (T-Mobile USA) - No LTE with this modem.
