Basic rundown, I bought an HTC One M8 on tmoblie yesterday, coming off an iphone 4. I've heard you have have have to root your android devices, so that was one of the very first things I did. Shortly after, I was trying to figure out exactly what I could do with the root, and decided to flash a custom ROM. I tried the Google Play edition posted on the dev section of this same forum. Everything worked as planned, except for one huge problem: my data no longer works. I can connect to wifi fine, as well as send texts, but no 4g lte access anymore. Idk if this is a common problem, if I'm doing something simple wrong, etc. I made a backup in TWRP, and saved it to my desktop, and tried restoring my phone to see if that would help, but I must have dne something wrong there too, as it doesn't show any files when I try to restore under TWRP.*
I would greatly appreciate any and all help or tips. I'm new to the android rooting scene and should have taken it more slowly. I thought I had done sufficient research, but I guess I ****ed the pooch somewhere along the way. Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much. Simple fix, never would have figured that out myself.

I was wondering if someone can help me? It appears that I lost 4g/ LTE connectivity switching between roms. I'm not new to flashing, rooting, etc., so I don't know how this happened. I did some basic toubleshooting (I.e. - reflashing ROMS, ensuring APN settings match default AT settings, etc.)
im stuck!!! Any advice, suggestions or help would greatly be appreciated.
Thank you!!!
You probably lost IMEI, there are threads about it. You gotta do research before you go flash happy.

I do not own a SGSII, I'm currently on a Nexus S, but I came across this thread on a web search when I was trying to find a solution to the same problem. My friend who owns an iPhone is also having the problem, so it appears to be an issue with Telus. I may contact them today if I'm able to and try to explain what's happening.

Check your APN settings. Users on another thread said Telus updated their APN values and when they changed them to match it worked.

Hi!
I really new to the scene and I have searched a lot trying to figuring this out but not luck so far
I flashed Jelly Beans 16 to my t889 almost a week ago, after reading that it was compatible with my tmobile GN2 even though is for verizon, everything works great but I can't get the mobile data to work correctly. push notifications wont work, apps that requiere internet wont work... Edge icon says I’m connected, APN settings are correct, the only thing that works is whats-app while on mobile data, or opening a web page in the browser (but it takes ages and I will get connection errors most of the time), so somehow its receiving data.
After much reading, found and app that displays mobile connection info and indeed it says I'm connected and how much data has been downloaded/uploaded already... it also says the radio is unknown!!!!! (please see the attached images)
How can I fix this??? any help will and is totally appreciated
my guest is flash a radio that is compatible with this rom but I can't find any info in how to just do that. I already flashed the T889UVBMB4 modem and it stills says radio/serial unknown/(some numbers) so I assume that the modem and radio are a different thing... are they?
Can anyone can point me in the right direction???
Thanks a zillion!

You will need to flash something that works. Wipe everything. Move it to your phone from your PC. Always make a backup.

thanks a million for your help!

Before you visit the phone company, what exact method are you using to restore?
thanks for taking a look!
what I did was boot in recovery mode, installed modem for my baseband. using cwm. wiped all data, cache, davlnk. installed new rom, which is compatible with my phone without a radio using cwm,. rebooted normally. probken persist.

Thank you all for all your help! I'm a newbie and using odin really scares me up! I have read of cases that people would corrupt their imei and I dont really want to end being one of those!
I went to the phone company today and no one could even give me a logical explanation to what was going on with the phone!
I can use whatsapp, navigate slow as hell, but push notications wont work no matter whaT!! I don't think anymore that my problem is the rom as I flashed stock and same thing NADA!
But the think that got me really frustasted was the "phone expert" at the company after taking the phone in his hands for a minute, came up with all his wisdom: "everyrhing is ok you can navigate; but wont receive push notifications"
I already know that you!!!! You!! Mot_#\×£ €=€÷£@( ... ...
Long story short, I took the phone to the competition and asked if my phone would work in their network, they charge more but are faster! the guy kindly put a micro sim and pum!!! 3g Internet on my phone to try!!! I couldn't check notificatios but waze was working and that alone sold me out!! Im changing company tomorrow if God allows me!

Thank you! Honestly I read a post here that advised against using Odin... as I newbie I take advises really seriously until I have the knowledge to make educated choices , I will make a backup of my phone using cwm and then flash stock with odin just to see if I can get the edge signal to work without any glitches, if not... I will reload the backup and go back to the rom Im using (which I luv)and change phone company!
wish me luck!!!!

If you go in about phone, status, does your IMEI match the one on the sticker under your battery?
Check the baseband listed there as well, is it a Verizon or a T-Mobile one?
Verizon has some HSPA support for roaming, but I'm not aware of them having AWS enabled.

I was trying to flash my note 2 back to the stock sprint os and instead i flashed the verizon os. idiot move i know.
Now my phone turns on with the verizon logo and says the sim card is not a valid verizon card.
Did i mess up my phone or is there a way i can flash the original stock srpint os back on? if so, which file do i need to download to do that? I dont care about losing data since i already lost it when i flashed the verizon os.
any help would be appreciated.

my bad. i've been posting on a bunch of sites trying to get help. didn't know i posted twice.
you can delete this one if you like.
I wanted to request any of the developers for our phone to port over a ROM made by soloilmeglio for the international variant of Note 4. The ROM is called X-Note and can be found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/rom-x-note-build-1-0-nj4-t2935625.
The developer (soloilmeglio) seems to be well regarded and it looks like the ROM has been crammed with a ton of features. It would be nice if we could get it for our phone also.
You are probably better off contacting the developer and working with him to test and see if he would port it over. Good luck, looks like a great rom.

Yea I suppose if nobody steps up I'll take a shot at it myself. I'm not a developer but I did some research online and various guides teach that you need to replace about 3 folders in the system directory to port a ROM.
I was just hoping that one of the devs would at least acknowledge this thread and take my request into consideration....

I'd also be willing to test. I've never developed before, but I've been flashing for about 3 years now, so I'm moderate experience in testing.
To op if it the same principal as the note 2 which it probably is the international version is pretty hard to port att is the easiest.I'm still debating on the note or nexus 6 if I get the note I will help out some.

I read a few people from the T-mobile phone discussing porting in the thread. I had the note 2 before this phone but don't remember such a discussion. Would you mind linking a thread where people talk about difficulties porting an international version ROM?

Just wanted to update you that i am working on this. I have it booting and everything is working with a couple of workarounds. I had to import the apn file from our stock rom to get lte and data working right. I am trying to fix the prl and profile update. I also have hangouts crashing whic i am working on. I reached out to the developer of the rom because i want his permission before i post it.

I'm actually not going to post it yet. I spoke to the developer and we are going to bring it to sprint hopefully next week. If it doesn't happen I will post what I have so far. Profile and prl update don't work. LTE and data work but you have to bring APN from old ROM. Was never able to send MMS, not sure about receiving.

Wow. Thank you so much. I had given up any hope that a developer would take this up. I was going to take a shot at it myself but I was wary about the kinds of issues you mention and wouldn't have any idea on how to deal with them.
Sent from my SM-N910P using XDA Free mobile app
If all you want right now is the Sprint system update then I can do that as long as you have the original dev's permission to port and post it in our Sprint forum. If you already have data working then upload it to AFH or similar an PM me a link. But if im not mistaken, international phones lack a lot (if not all) of the necessary code/files necessary that reside in settings, jars & framework. Ill know right away if i peek inside just one file. If it lacks the necessary code/files then you might as well forget it because it would be like spending $3,000 to replace the transmission in your $500 Hyundai. Not worth it in that case.
I had the port working but data wasn't great. Only had 3g in certain places. APN wouldn't stick if you select LTE. I think it had to do with the profile not updating, so that might fix data. I'm actually getting a new phone this week because of a major lag issue so I stopped working on it. I spoke to the developer. He said he would help but has been unresponsive this week. I can wait till you release your next rim. You did a good job on the stock ROM. I wish I didn't have a hardware issue.
