Zenfone ZE551ML can't connect to LTE or 4G - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've bought a european market ZE551ML and have it on the metro PCS network. Every APN I've tried both T-mobile and Metro fail to give me LTE or 4g. I had a previous ZE551ML that was on the same network that had no problem getting LTE. WW firmware phone with 4.21.40.352 MM Installed. The phones rooted and bootloader unlocked. I can get hspa+ but LTE is the problem . Attached are the Screenshots from my APN and phone settings as well as random network Data. Im a network engineer with alot of experience and I've tried everything I can without success a little help would be much appreciated and would using a custom ROM help in any way.
Unfortunately after adding over 7 tinypic URL images I had to delete them cause This is my first post which im sure would have helped alot.
Anyways thanks ahead of time.

[Q] I unlocked and rooted/flashed and now shows wrong network.

Hi guys,
I had my Note 2 on Koodo network for less than a year. Recently I unlocked it and sold it to a friend. My friend is on Videotron network and the phone shows the signal with an R like if my friend was roaming however it works properly. I also tried switching the network manually but it doesn't want to connect to Videotron. Is there something that I need to flash such as modem maybe ? It's running on Slimkat latest stable version.

Vs985 Fulmics status/imei resetting to 0000 on tot flash?

Hey guys, I have an LG G3 now on 47A that I updated using LG Flash tool/kdz. Unrooted and stock. I want to flash Fulmics but every thread says that the older versions of Fulmics didn't have working mobile data and bad connectivity for the Verizon variant. Is the new version the same? Also to root my phone and flash twrp, I heard about the tot method. However, many users say their IMEI reset to 0000000 and their phones were unable to connect to any network. How true is this? Did anyone experience this as well? Thank you everyone in advance!
Note: i am using a non Verizon 4g Sim. As of now, 4g and networks work seamlessly. Ive tried the following carriers on 4g and they all work: T-Mobile US 4g, Airtel IN 3g and 4g (both sim cards work), Vodafone AU 4g.

The VS985 variant takes on the ROM flawlessly, but yes there have been reported data issues regarding using the variant with the Verizon network. I believe it stems from the international GSM rom built around the GSM radio interface layer. I would NOT be surprised to see that T-Mobile and others work well, but you will need to research the Fulmics thread to know for sure, as I only know that my VZW SIM does not work properly. (3G only)

Ahh alright, I guess 3G only is fine with me (I only message people over mobile data, nothing else). I'll do my research then. So text messaging/calling works?
Thanks.

Seems like SMS/Calling worked for me...but had troubles with MMS. Others were able to get both working with Textra/Handscent/etc but not the stock messenger app. It's been awhile ago since I tried the international ROM's and they're all kind of a blur from some reason. Not being able to get signal bars working was a deal breaker for me (travel in the states quite a bit) so I broke away. I believe the XSPIRIT is working on fixes for the international ROM. Once his source code becomes available it should open up a world of LG Goodness. Currently , the ROM's I tried were Andy's, TekCafe, LG Prime, Fulmics....all display the same problem, the ability for Verizon SIM's to completely work properly.

I need help on samsung note 4 N910v

My friend brought an original refurbish Samsung N910v android version 5.01 which was working with GSM 2G if not 3G until when I tried to update to new version android v6.0.1. In the menu>setting>about when I checked first before anything it showed me N910 F v5.01 but in boot mode Odin it was N910v.The problem started when I just typed *#9090# the phone immediately started reboot loop. I have managed to unlock the boot loader and root the phone installed custom rom version 6.0.1 by Paul Pizz rom VRU2CPJ2.r-1 but still can not have 2G or 3G GSM network. Please help to revive the phone again whether it meant to go back to 5.0.1 that would work with gsm cause am full stack now.
Have you checked to ensure you have the APN information in place? I have a Galaxy Note 4 N910V now (just got it a few days ago) and when I put my T-Mobile SIM in it from the very first time I have to manually put in the APN data - on custom ROMs it's usually picked up and there automagically but not always so, my suggestion is that you check to make sure your APN information is currently there as it should be.
Settings - More - Cellular networks - Access Point Names - make sure the one you need to be using is selected and if it's not then you'll have to put that info in manually and save it.
As for the actual model number, take the battery out and see what the model number is on the sticker in the battery compartment area - if the sticker isn't there then it could be a device that someone has done some experimenting with because that info can be changed. The sticker should be there, of course, but sometimes people take 'em out when they're mucking around with stuff, who knows.
Initially the phone is from Verizon but was working on 2G ,3G GSM network with N910F firmware version 5.0.1.it was working on airtel network until when I wanted to update. May I have the Apn settings,please

The APN will be your network. Are trying to use Verizon? If so, you should have a spot to tic the VZWINTERNET. If not, then you have a sim card issue.
ziggy the how do i sort out the sim card issue ,Since phone says this sim card is not from verizon

Is the sim from verizon? If you have a good account go to a corporate store and have them give you a new one. It's free.
Also, what are your APN settings and I will compare to mine. Everything works on mine.
the fone I have came from china ,am in Africa and remember I told you it was working woth N910f firmware version 5.0.1.All am asking is there anyway I could make this fone work again on Gsm network, cause all it says after re flash is the card is not from verizon
I now rooted this n910v android version 5.1.1 still no network, am in Africa where there is 2G&3G GSM network, how would I make this fone to work again with the gsm network now that I rooted. On the network bar I get a circle with a cross ,how to make this work

- N910VVRU2CPJ2_FullFirmware_NoAboot<--- Full Framework with no aboot so you will not re-lock bootloader, but will unroot and restore back to 100% stock. once your on the full stock check if your connections are working fine, if they are then install custom rom, otherwise change the sim card
go in settings, connections and select network mode to global, should be fine

No LTE HTC 10 Sprint Nougat/Oreo !

Ht c 10
Sprint
Unlocked
S-On
When i purchased this phone it was running Viper nougat rom with functional LTE
I updated to oreo firmware and lte gone. It would only show 3g where as i am in full lte coverage zone
I flashed different oreo and pie roms but fruitless
I tried to fix by erasing modemst1 and 2 but it always give error of 35 partition
Today i downgraded to Nougat and erase persist but it is still same
i can only get 3g no 4g or lte
I tried network reset by ##72786# but it eventually sim locked my phone and i had to unlock it manually
Any suggestion or possible fix
Thanks in advance
did you find the answer?
I have also lost connection. Except mine is both 3G and 4G. Oddly I can still call, text, use wifi and putting the sim in my other phone works just fine. I have no clue what's wrong. I've tried everything at this point.
Here's a link to my thread if you wish to follow any solutions provided if someone comments.

It had same situation but eventually I solved it. Now LTE is working. First of all, need to be S-OFF and then after unlocking SIM, you can install any firmware with any ROM that supports the encryption...Either US unlocked or UK International Roms will fix the LTE issue. One thing to notice: you must keep the data partition unformatted for keeping the SIM lock status and need to use SPRINT or VERIZON radio. I am using stock Oreo from with Verizon radio + Magisk.
In addition, I unlocked LTE bands as well with DFS Qualcomm tool
