Finally 3G Data on Droid Bionic is possible without LTE SIM..!!!!!! [Non-VERIZON Carrier]

!!!!!!!...PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS PROCESS CAN BE DONE BEFORE FLASHING YOUR PHONE TO ANY CARRIER...!!!!!!!

IF YOU HAVE ALREADY FLASHED YOUR PHONE TO SOME CARRIER, SIMPLY FOLLOW THIS GUIDE AND YOU WON'T NEED LTE SIM FOR 3G DATA....

THIS IS JUST A WORK AROUND / SOLUTION TO LTE SIM ONLY...

IT SHOULD ALSO WORK ON RAZR / RAZR MAXX as Bionic and RAZR are Siblings

Ok Guys,

Here is my guide for the same... Please note that I've already tested this method and its working properly on my Bionic...

However I take no responsibility, if you brick your phone...

!!!!!!..........YOU MUST BE ROOTED..........!!!!!!

Download apps from the following link...

aShell

aSQLiteManager

Install both apps and grant Superuser permission when needed...

Now run aShell

Select Root on Top Right

Now TAP on FIle Explorer then

>>>> DATA / DATA / com.android.providers.settings

TAP on Databases

TAP on settings.db

TAP on Open databse with aSQLiteManagar

TAP on secure

TAP on data tab and following screen will appear

TAP on EDIT on No 14 Entry "preferred_cdma_subscription"

Change Value to 1

Press OK

Now Press PgDn until you see No 50 Entry "subscription_mode"

TAP on EDIT and Change Value to 1 same as you did previously"

Now Press PgDn until you see No. 483 "preferred_network_mode"

Now TAP on EDIT and change Value to 7 as shown in picture for 3G

Or change value to 8 for 4G...

Press OK

Press Back on Phone until you see the following/SIZE]

Press YES

Press Back on Phone until you see EXIT the aShell

TURN OFF your Phone

Remove LTE SIM

TURN ON...

VOILA 3G WILL START AFTER REBOOT...

Feel free to post comments...

This is great...if i plug my sim card back in will I get 4g back? Thinking to use an LTE tablet with my phone's sim card, if I can do it this way that'd be awesome...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] matriX1218:
It's for non verizon carrier only..

But if you want to use 4G, then you have to select 4G every time manually from programme manu...

Try it and let us know...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eggs467:
Not working for me. After I rebooted all of the settings in the databases have changed themselves back to 0 0 and 8 respectively. I've also lost my 1x now. I'm on Pageplus
[Motorola Droid Bionic] matriX1218:
Impossible...

It'll work... make sure you followed guide properly...

I'm using the same way on my bionic..

Tried a few more times and was able to get database changes to hold. Now I've got 1x w/o sim card. Still no 3G, and I've lost MMS now which was previously working.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] matriX1218:
If you got 1x working w/o sim then 3G should work too... make sure you've proper 3G settings

[Motorola Droid Bionic] eggs467:
What 3G settings are you referring to, specifically?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] matriX1218:
It's a part of page plus flash... so I don't know what are your settings

ok where do you suggest i go from here then, i'm worse off then when i started :(
[Motorola Droid Bionic] matriX1218:
Buddy... whether 3G was previously working on your phone.. I mean before going through this thread??? If it was not working then you must follow the guide on xda for activation of page plus...

houlfse Kickstart

No it was not. Thought the whole point of this thread to get 3G? I had 1x could call mms and sms with pageplus before I started this. Then I rooted and went through this procedure so i was already activated and still am. So I now have 1x mms and calls. But this is with sim card out now. If I put sim card back in I will lose the flash right? can't reflash now since i dont have a clean sim card, right. Frustrated
[Motorola Droid Bionic] matriX1218:
This thread is NOT for getting 3G... it's for "How to use 3G without Verizon LTE sim " means for non Verizon user like you and me...

Please do some research and update your self regarding flashing and all...

You won't loose anything if you out sim back in...

sent from Motorola DROID BIONIC HD on Reliance Wireless
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eggs467:
OK, yes my phone was flashed to pageplus and 3g was not working. What are you talking about that this is not to get 3g working? Really you are not making yourself very clear here....
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dlw1146:
This method worked for me... however:

There was no 483... there was 93.

Also, instructions said to remove sim card.

It did not say to reinstall sim card.

Works fine with origiinal VZW 4G/LTE sim card inserted.

dlw
[Motorola Droid Bionic] matriX1218:
Glad it worked for you...

Actually I'm on stock but removed all crap of vzw... so when you reset to factory settings database lines differs from one to another...

Anyway, if it ends well then all well...

I'm not sure if it is that SQLite editor or something else, but whenever I've tried this, it has removed all the choices except power off from the pop-up that appears when you hold the power/lock button.

I've been able to accomplish the same thing also by changing ro.cdma.subscription from 0 to 1 in build.prop then doing a factory reset. I have not confirmed if it sets those first two mentioned entries from the database, but it does work. However, I've seen that data usage settings and stats don't appear when using this and MMS doesn't work either. Since I wanted MMS and the data usage settings and stats to work, I opted to just get the SIM card and use it, at least until some way is found to get those to work without the SIM.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
I found an original HTC MyTouch 4G Slide dock on Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00685KHGI/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1), for the great price of $8.99 with free shipping. It is a very sturdy device, it works beautifully, comes with the cable and wall plug. The neat thing is when you slide the phone into the charger, the display automatically switches to the Desk Clock mode, with the weather displayed. After a while, it will go to the "screen saver" mode, with just the time displayed. You can touch "night mode" to dim it. Makes for a great bedside clock/charger. I wish I'd found this sooner.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] demkantor:
Nice find! Bought this a while back at twice the price! An awesome dock for sure, it was well worth the 15$ I paid for it then, anyone with a ds and 9 extra bucks would for sure be missing out!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] david31262:
I ordered this, and received a PowerMat Receiver (phone back) instead of a Dock. It's barely worth the shipping cost to send it back.

PITA.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Fuzi0719:
How odd. After getting the first one, since I liked it so much, I ordered a second one and received it. Now I have one on my desk and another on my nightstand.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] david31262:
Thanks for the response. Maybe I'll try again.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bucknut614:
Just got the 4.3 update this morning and the first thing I noticed is that the WiFi is having issues. It says its connected to my network but i get no traffic. I have rebooted the router and N7 and it helps for a few minutes but if the tab goes to sleep it will not reconnect. Everything I have read on other sites say its a known problem that Google knows about but this is a really annoying issue. Are their any fixes out there? I have a non- rooted N7 but I will root it immediately if there is a fix.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bucknut614:
Called Google Support 1-855-836-3987 (855-83-NEXUS) and this is what they had me do.

Hello Kerry,

Thank you for contacting Google Play! It was a pleasure speaking to you today.

1. Hold power button for 2 seconds and select 'Power Off'

2. Hold 'Volume Down' button and press power button

3. An image of an Android lying on its back will appear.

4. Press the Volume Down key twice until "Recovery mode" appears on the screen.

5. Press the Power key to restart in "Recovery mode."

6. An image of an Android with a red triangle will appear.

7. While holding down the Power key, tap the Volume Up key.

8. The Android System Recovery screen will appear. Release all keys.

9. Use the Volume keys to scroll to wipe data cache partition and press the Power key to select.

10. The phone will restart.

Seems to have done the trick so far but I will update after a day or so if needed.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] stevessvt:
Due to financial difficulties right now, Ive had to cut back on a number of things, one being dropping 5GB of data on two lines, but my service somes with unlimited data with 500mb high speed for free. If I pass the 500 megs, does it drop to edge automatically, or does it stay on HSPA/LTE and they limit it another way? And just how slow does it get?

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxKINGxX2580:
When you pass the 500 megabytes, the speed drops down to edge speed at around .10 mb down. The symbol on the notification panel still says LTE, but you are getting edge speeds until the next billing cycle starts
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gunkk:
Correct. Phone will still say how you're connected (3G, 4G, LTE), but you will only see about 100-150 kbps.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] stevessvt:
Thanks for the info. I locked my phone down to Edge to see how bad it was, and for streaming music it definitely takes longer to cache, but not horribly bad.

Because the information has been published for well over a year and there really is no sense in replicating existing information.

Hey guys, I'm using Nexus Toolkit and have already successfully unlocked the tablet. When I try to root it however, I just get the Toolkit pop-up that says "Booting Custom Recover..." and it seems to never do anything.

What am I doing wrong? Drivers are successfully installed.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] highfigh:
So you have flashed a recovery and can't get into it? That happened to me when I tried to install twrp. I had to install cwm instead.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] checcles:
Actually no recovery but the stock one was on it.

I finally just got it to work - I had to use a different computer and now we're all good. Thanks.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Yoz:
Hi everyone,

here is a complete noob posting. So don't be too rude in your answers! :roll:

I bought a new MDA compact from t-mobile Germany and I want to get rid of the branding or change it to the O2 Germany version of it (it's my provider). There is no simlock or anything similar.

That is the reason I found your page. And I took a big look around.

At the moment I think that the only way to "debrand" my mda is to copy a "clean" "shipped rom" on it.

So here are my questions:

1) Are the shipped roms debranded versions of the ones that are already provided or do they have more bugs than the respective branded versions?

2) What are the differences between the different rom-types? Which of these are valuable for my purpose?

3) Suppose I created a backup of my rom and want to flash it with a version from your ftp. Can I reinstall my backup, even if the installation process of the other rom stopped and didn't finish or am I completely ****ed?

-------

By the way: It would be very nice if you could extend your encyclopedia a little. For example it would be nice to have some explanations on the different types of roms.

-------

Thanks already for your help!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] vijay555:
There's not much difference between ROM versions, just get the most up to date if you're going to update.

Apply the bigstorage hack. If you're doing that, you might as well upgrade the rom at the same time.

I wouldn't change the ROM if you're having no problems with it. Very little has changed that I can tell, nothing that would force me to upgrade if I had to do it again.

Debranding - the branded versions (eg tmobile) might come out with more things bundled in, but almost everything can be downloaded from XDA Developers' FTP site - look in the extended rom area. These things are optional, and generally just brand your phone, so best not to bother!

There's software available to "easily change splash screen" to change the boot up screen to anything you want to remove that branding. I have a QTEK Rom and don't notice any other branding.

Hope that provides some info!

Brightness control is the must one... If it force close means we cant use brightness settings ha??
[Xperia SP Themes and Apps] ruchirtrehan:
You can probably still use any software like "yet another auto brightness" from play store or many others have given the brightness bar you can use it, since I wont be able to work on anything now, maybe someone could get it fixed. (though I'll try and make some time to fix it "no promises")
[Xperia SP Themes and Apps] ruchirtrehan:
And I atm cant work on it coz, working on my new ROM I messed up in framework after flashing it ma phone got bricked now it's stuck on Sony logo cant get into CWM nor till boot animation just stuck on Sony logo even connecting it in flashmode to flash ftf isn't working coz flashtool now isn't recognizing my device, so I guess I have to find a solution for this first before working on anything else :confused:

Yes, the "white setting" is worked, but there's some problem in it. Beside the error with the brightness setting, I also unable to access the power Management settings. It's force closed. That means I can't access the Stamina Mode and I also unable to see the battery percentage ?????

battery percentage is a must for me. Without it I'm unable to see how long my battery life is left..... :(

**Please fix Sir
[Xperia SP Themes and Apps] ruchirtrehan:
I tested the stamina mode specially, and it worked perfectly for me I dint found any problems and battery % were working :eek:, I'll recheck as soon as I can fix my phone. :confused:

Edit- You can check screenshots in OP everything is working fine, maybe try flashing it again.
