Vs985 Fulmics status/imei resetting to 0000 on tot flash? - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

have you change from Sprint to Undetermined ?
I just flashed and followed CloudyG3 FAQ which shows how to get data working. I use mine on TMO. Look at the FAQ post for Cloudy and you will be fine.
Mind you LS980 only supports UMTS2100, so you may not get 3G unless your carrier supports that band. On TMO I only get 2G at 200-400 Kbps which is still pretty fast.

TMO is GSM not CDMA bro...With GSM, most of your programming is in the SIM and through APN setting..it's different with CDMA...we have to flash our carrier settings (not the same flashing as flashing a ROM)

Sorry I thought your carrier was GSM.
I am aware CDMA is different, I was assuming you wanted to use it on GSM. If you want CDMA then yes you have to flash carrier settings.
I know some carriers flash Sprint/Verizon phones for their CDMA network so you could try that.

Unlocked LG G2 LS980 Sim card trouble need help!

Hey guys!
Just moved to London and got a new sim card from Three (unlimited 4G ) and it's not working (works fine with SGS+). The phone is not detecting it. I was running stock 4.4.2, tried changing network types, tried all unlock methods (anyways, it was unlocked before), tried reinstalling the whole system and it didn't help. To make sure it's not the unlocking problem I switched to Cloudy 2.2 and still have the same problem. Although the phone is detecting other networks (Vodafone, O2 etc) but not "Three", and it's detecting my phone number right.
How to solve the problem and make it work?
Tech info:
LG LS980 (Sprint) (ZVE)
Baseband:
M8974A-AAAANAZM-2.0.20046
Kernel:
3.4.102

MAY BE IT WILL NOT WORK FOR YOUR ZVE AS THIS IS FOR ZVC & ZVC
Arthur you need to follow this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2596175 and do a little lot of work there and for your ZVE you may also need some more trick to root your device as this post covers ZVC & ZVD only. So i think some of the files are always the same in build updates as we are not moving toward modem or recovery so i just wanted to help may be it can't at all.

Did that a hundred times with different methods. My phone is unlocked already and it works with few other sim-cards but it doesn't work with Three, which is my operator now. Still looking for some other methods or tricks cause now I use my LG G2 as a player only and it's not cool.

[Q] UK 4G not working

So far, managed to root my Korean F240L, still running 4.4.2 for now until there's a root for Lollipop. Haven't managed to see any 4G signal in the UK since I got it , get 3G sporadically but the reception is way worse than the same sim card in my old Nexus 4. Network is Giff Gaff (ie O2) , should I consider going for a UK baseband update ?
Right ok, since found out that the Korean version doesn't support UK 4G. Is it possible to change this ?

If the phone doesn't support the LTE bands your desired carrier offers, then no, you're boned.
Think I'm in a similar situation
Got an E986 from Germany running 4.4.2 KitKat (E98620a-EUR-XX), it works great on 3G in the UK but NO 4G at all on my Three 4G Sim card. Tried enabling it in the hidden phone menu - no joy.
I thought I would be able to get 4G working by rooting and re-flashing but by god I cannot get this thing rooted despite my best attempts from trying all the techniques on here
Thought if I downgraded to 4.1.2 then I would have better luck rooting, but can't seem to download a .kdz that isn't corrupted when I try the LG FlashTool

You cant change the bands of a phone by flashing other things. If it doesnt work it most likely wont be able too.

My LG G3 only connects to Edge network

Hello guys.
After a couple of days reading on the internet without success I decided to share my problem here.
I bought a LG g3 D850 32 gb on eBay, once I received it I was so happy enjoying the 4g LTE network, the speed was amazing.
Regrettably, one day all this happiness disappeared, now I only have Edge connection, I don't have 3g, hsdpa or 4g, I only get the awful Edge.
I have tried using my sim card on other phone and I get 3g and hsdpa (that phone does not have 4g) so the problem is on the G3.
I have to say that I have the phone with the stock rom and the only change I've done was to root it with kingroot and deleted (disable) some at&t apps. I thought this was the problem so I restored to factory defaults but the problem did not disappear.
I was thinking in to return the phone but I am in Chile so is a little hard.
I will be grateful if some one could help me with this issue.
I will be waiting for your comments
Thanks on advance

Hi Nick,
This is the Software info:
Android Version: 5.0.1
Baseband Version: MPSS.DI.2.0.1.c1.13-00058-M8974AAAAANPZM-1
Kernel Version: 3.4.0
Build Number: LRX21Y
Software Version: D85021r
Security Software Version: MDF v1.1 Release 3
I do not understand what the base network is. Is my cellullar provider?
The APN settings are OK. I didn't change anything.
I had all the connections and suddenly I lost 3 and 4 g and only get Edge.
I didn't change anything. I rooted the phone with KingRoot but I am not sure if the problem started in that moment.
I have made the Factory Data Reset a couple of times and the problem continues.
My Sim Card works fine in other cell phone.
Please Help!!!!

I had the same problem when I switched the operator. Went there and the man there tried everything but nothing helped. Last thing he suggested was to do a software update, did it an 4G speed came back

Yes, your cellular provider. What's your cellular provider and what's your APN? Is your sim from AT&T, a foreign provider or from a Chilean network? Does the APN match the SIM provider's APN?
I'm thinking that it's either an APN problem or a band switching problem (since you disabled some AT&T apps) or you just ran through your allotment of 4G data under your contract.
If you've tried your SIM very recently in a friend's phone and it works just fine, then it's probably not a data allotment problem.

I am using a chilean provider with the correct APN, the same I used from the first day when 4g were working fine and the same.
Yesterday I tried mi sim card in other cellphone and I got 4g without problem. I checked the apn and they was the same.
Now I tried with tho different ROMs, I changed the kernel and the modem and I'm still get only EDGE :crying::crying:
I do not know what to do. I think the cellphone is bad
I'm guessing that you may have disabled something when you were deleting the AT&T bloatware. You've got a D850, right?
As @trickie69r has mentioned in a previous thread, try downloading your KDZ direcly from LG's Servers using: http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b...XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
(Replace XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX with your own IMEI, which can be found by dialing *#06* in Dialer)
Take a screenshot of your About Phone > Software Info tab before and after and see if anything changes.
Buena suerte!

Thank you Nick.
I have flashed some Roms, and the problem did not solve.
I have tried to download the stock rom but I can't download it from the link you send me. I can't find D850 stock rom.
Do you have other link to get it?

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.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/help/internet-connectivity-htc-10-please-help-t3946949
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
