[UPDATED] Preferred Network Mode Reverting to LTE/GSM @ Boot Fix

ISSUE Preferred network type is set to LTE/GSM during startup causing phone to be stuck in no signal/emergency calls only mode. Using the *#*#4636#*#* fix users were able to connect until the next reboot where the change is not saved across sessions.

RESOLUTION

Download/Install Toggle Network Type 5.0 (see download links below)

Open application and grant application SuperSU permissions (exit app after granting permissions or you will have to re-do widget configuration after adding widget to home screen)

Long press a blank space on one of your home screens and select WIDGETS

Add the widget called Toggle Network Type 5.0 that shows LTE/2G/3G on the widget preview to any home screen

Open the Toggle Network Type 5.0 application from the app drawer

Select Configure widget

Deselect any preferred network types you do not wish to have the widget toggle through. If you are unsure deselect all options except for LTE, CDMA and EvDo (NOTE: This actually sets the phone to LTE/CDMA auto (PRL) option from the *#*#4636#*#* menu)

Press back button twice to save changes and return to the home screen

Tap the widget you added in step 4 until it displays the network type you wish to use. You are now connected to the network type listed on the widget granted the network type is available in your area.

As long as you do not remove the application from your phone the network type listed on your widget will automatically be connected to at startup. I have performed several soft reset and battery pulls using every setting that is compatible and have that confirmed that no action was required on my part after a powercycle.

Since my initial reply I have collected screenshots of the settings screens and was able to confirm this fixes mobile data connectivity issues permanently after being setup correctly.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
I never have issues
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hermeticist:
GPS still not working with clean install of 1-17-2015 build.

Here is a logcat:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/req018bzdflnxbj/2015-01-18-09-50-00.txt?dl=0

Note: I use GPS Status to test GPS using GPS and Wi-Fi.

I also got a lock with KitKat first before installing LiquidSmooth clean.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] infamouzwt:
Am i the only one who never had an issue with this rom. Guess it is the phones that vary because i never had any problems with the past 3 or 4 builds
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] drcrimzon:
I've had random GPS issues, looking at GPS and spen today. Thanks for the log, helps a lot.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hibby50:
I Have my sprint number integrated to voice and no issues here.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] sully9292:
I am loving this rom and thank you for putting your time and effort into this rom. I flash this today and I have no issues at all.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] sml2004:
What is the difference in official and unofficial? Just curious
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] cmdmoto:
Same here and sure hope I don't. The only problem I have is sms. I got tired of asking my wife to call me to fix it so I put Grove IP on my tablet and just made a phone call with it. Everything else is running great.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] spleef:
Don't need a call anymore.... Dial *#*#4636#*#* switch to CDMA auto prl key it sit for a bit... Then switch it back to late/CDMA auto prl this same fix works on all the roms
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] sully9292:
Actually I have problem, I am problems charging my phone.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
Switch to CDMA u lose lte hehe
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] spleef:
Not saying leave it there permanently wait for it to connect to 3g then put it back on lte/CDMA auto prl fixes the texts without having to receive a call
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] cmdmoto:
Once this is done, will it stick through reboot?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Patch7:
No. Its needs to be done after every reboot.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Ben689:
What is fixed in the 1/18 build

---------- Post added at 02:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:06 AM ----------

Is is worth updating from 1/17 build.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] spleef:
Change log in the op is update each release a simple read of the op answers your question
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Ben689:
I have a problem where at the lockscreen it says no sim card yet I get service. Is there a fix for this?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] spleef:
i never have to do that...only thing i ever have to do i the sms fix after a reboot...idk why thats happening...will look into it...using the same sources as cm so if its a issue you have there you will have it here as well..so far as gps i use the mobile data setting and have nps locking...but ill also look into the gps thing as well

try using the mobile data option for gps i have nps getting a lock at all but ill look into it and see whats up
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] spleef:
the spen works but the air command/air view features are a tw thing...honestly thats the only thing i miss from stock as for gear manager idk and the health im guessing there is probably a similar play store version that should work
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] BigRitz:
Living this so far , have been on WiFi since install so haven't messed with Signal yet but so far so good thank you so much!!!

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] davidja92:
been running good did a clean flash all works well only had 2 random reboots while changing my mixer_paths file and a font file but after that all is smooth will report later with smoothness battery life and the misc. battery killer issue
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] trakas:
Native hotspot is not included,isnt it? What are you guys using instead?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TechnicianOnline:
It's native like a boss ROM it is. Works without a workaround.

Although the WiFi Tether Router apk from the Google Market works best for the Note 4. You just have to be rooted and it works on any ROM, yes even stock.

Reporting a bug, the no SIM card notification shows persistently.

Haven't noticed anything else so far in the last 24 hours.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lilmeanz:
Are we only able to run 2 cores on this ROM ? Everything working fine for me except the lift to wake .I haven't seen the no Sim other than when I reboot my phone.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] mitchellvii:
All four cores are active. What makes you think they aren't?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lilmeanz:
I was looking at performance it only shows 2 cores active .I'm assuming it was showing core activities
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fooshack:
using messaging plus..... no MMS.... Is there a fix?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TechnicianOnline:
I found sending MMS fails on 3G but works fine on 4G or WiFi.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] rcmartin57:

cm themes

I see the new theme options under settings...Anyone find a theme that works yet?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
Yes team carbon themes work well steal blue next is my favorite
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] amase005:
Anyone getting voicemail notifications constantly?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Ben689:
Are you sure, because the same thing happened on two other lollipop roms.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] drcrimzon:
Are you referring to the No Sim message? thats normal for the time being. Once we get SMS resolved it may go away. It's pretty normal on Sprint LTE UICC sim phones running CM12, my nexus 5 still has it. It doesnt affect anything.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Ben689:
When I did this nothing happened.

---------- Post added at 06:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ----------

Basically, the problem is when I for example browse the web, even if I am connected to WiFi, I am always using mobile data. Since when I click on data in the quick toggles, it only takes me to the data settings and I can't toggle it on and off. I can turn data completely off by switching to lte only, but then I can't make or recieve calls, messages, ect. Sometimes when I dial *#*#46... And try to fix it it works, in which case everything works, but usually the fix doesn't work.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] dantheman9703:
This is great! Thanks.

It was asked before and I was actually wondering about spark bring confirmed on this. I can't confirm if it's technically working, but my speed tests all but confirm that spark is working on this ROM. I am in a Spark area and I get 30 Mbps with this ROM.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lilmeanz:
Can't record video
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] drcrimzon:
Change the quality off QHD and you should be able to.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lilmeanz:
Worked thanks
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fooshack:
I keep getting a binary update error when trying to install this ROM. Any ideas?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] leandrae400:
When you do an install don't hit fix permissions..... Or you will get that binary error..... I've done it and made sure that's what it was........ Only thing you can do is restore a backup.... And don't hit fix permissions

---------- Post added at 02:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:03 AM ----------

If you install over it and reboot.. It will boot loop
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] fooshack:
I didn't hit fix permissions...I can't even clean install

weird....root checker says I'm rooted. ..root checker pro says I'm not.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] chargerfn909:
+1 on the stock note 4 camera. I am using a cam from play store, but that note 4 cam was money.. This modified Google Cam is too barebones for me. I gotta have my HDR and screen tap to take pic functions at the very least =)

Otherwise, absolutely love this ROM. Much thanks, fellas.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] TechnicianOnline:
What is the change log big dawg?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hermeticist:
Good afternoon,

Were you able to find a probable reason for GPS not responding on some of my phones?

Do some of the Sprint phones have different GPS hardware than others?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wgrant:
You have a change log coming soon, brotha?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] spleef:
1/21 uploaded
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] drcrimzon:
With the nightly builds, probably not, we are to the point where we are not really changing our device files, so it's just bringing changes in from the ROM.

If we have a major update like fixing spen with the new kernel, we will make sure we mention it, if it's just a new build up, it's just a nightly that has the latest commits from ROM.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lido:
I love this rom, so smooth and fast. Only problem I'm having is the screen sensor. That is, when my face is against the phone while talking, apps keep popping up because the screen isn't going dark. Any ideas?

tia
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] drcrimzon:
The screen should be going dark, the problem is the touchscreen is not turning off when the proximity sensor is triggered. We are working on fixing it.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
Thanks for the roms man this is my favorite battery its awsome but I'm using the zero lemon battery so it don't matter heje
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] lido:
Ah thanks for response! Glad to know it's not just me
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hermeticist:
Any progress with GPS?

Did my logcat help?

(Yes, I know it works for some people. But it doesn't work for others).
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wgrant:
Work around for this is to just press the power button before bringing it to your face. No problems then.

Good to know, brotha. I assumed as much just asked because every other build has had a change log just indicating upstream changes from CM and/or Liquid plus whatever else if anything. I'm good with flying under the assumption it's a nightly unless told otherwise. Keep up the great work guys. Even without LTE I've made this my daily because it's rock solid. It's greatly appreciated.

1/19 and 1/20 are still giving me problems with call audio stopping randomly in the middle of a call. Flashing 1/21 now.

Lollipop SMS Issue

Well...I tried for as long as I could....but I had to go back to KitKat. Someone please be sure to post when the SMS issues is fixed and I will be back to Liquid Smooth. Its my favorite rom.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hibby50:
Wherever I tap certain things my phone makes a loud horrible static sound for about 1 second. For example typing this is fine. But when I tap send button or a launcher icon I get CHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHASSSSSHHHHHHH
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
I get background ringing on 1.21. N 1.20
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] drcrimzon:
Background ringing as in you answer the call, and it keeps ringing in the earpiece?

---------- Post added at 13:13 ---------- Previous post was at 13:10 ----------

Looking at this. I have not had any issues, but I'm not running the "stock" liquid build (testing sms changes/fixes).
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hibby50:
I just installed another ROM for the time being because the of static issue I described above. It maybe just me cuz I clean flashed beanstalk and it did it once but not again. The 1/21 build from here wasn't making the static with typing vibrations (I initially thought the vib maybe causing it) but every time I hit submit on XDA,a launcher icon on nova, or the send in hangouts I got a loud static sound.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
Yes ringing in the background on earpiece and phone speaker

---------- Post added at 08:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:17 PM ----------

A guy over in the cm thread has the same issue beeping in phone cals like another call is coming in
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] drcrimzon:
I have a "test" cm build if you want to try it to see if it's fixed in it. I dont have this problem, and the fix for it is in these builds, so not sure why it's happening to you, but I do have a cm build I have been testing SMS fixes on that has a revamped RIL (Which is where the orignal problem was fixed).
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
Yes I'll try it please
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] allaidback:
Seems as though the Theme Engine broke in the latest build 1-21. Upon reboot I had notifications that my working themes failed. I made sure to switch back to default before I updated the rom.

[MENTION=1880287]spleef[/MENTION] I lost my app drawer button after clean flashing 1.21

I have since tried dirty flashing it and it still doesn't show up.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
Must clean flash 1.21
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tgrrb5:
I did a clean install the first time. When I noticed it missing I did a dirty flash the second time.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] Ben689:
When will the data/sim issue be fixed!?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
I had it too after clean flash it was gone
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tgrrb5:
Have you gotten it back? If so, did you re-download the file and then flash it?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] drcrimzon:
Once someone helps find why the telephony engine thinks the phone is a gsm phone until it connects to CDMA. It asks the phone what it is, and the phone replies gsm. This is the root of the SMS/lte number bug.

I have failed in 50+ attempted builds to override or bypass or fix it.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
Yes it came back
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] tgrrb5:
Maybe my problem is that I downloaded it using my phone's browser instead of the computer this time.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hermeticist:
Could this be related to the GPS problem?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] drcrimzon:
No, I think I have that one narrowed down, but have been working on SMS and spen. If I have time tomorrow I'll look at it again.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wmatheney:
Wow. I discovered a really odd bug just after installing the latest version, 1-21. I use smart launcher and when I click an icon on the smart launcher home screen or drawer, I get about a 4 second loud static sound from the speaker like a radio between stations. It's not a bug with the launcher. I use it all the time. It must be something with this latest version. It doesn't happen with the default launcher.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hibby50:
I posted a good description a page or 2 ago but no one listened! I had to nandroid to samsung, that lasted 5 minutes but I'm on beanstalk. It was happening almost everywhere

20150122 Build

The current nightly build is up. Try it out to see if it fixes any of the issues you had on the 0121 rom.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] wmatheney:
Will do. Thanks
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hibby50:
Just nandroided back and dirty flashed 1/22 (I've been dirty flashing since day one hehehe) and at first glance the issue with the static seems resolved. I will report back later with call audio status.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] drcrimzon:
Thanks for the update. Good news.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] hibby50:
Anytime I love the work you guys do.

I've also noticed when using trickster although i have mpdecision off and thermal throttling on, my min and max freqs still dont stick in the trickster app. they change to random values when i hit apply whether the frequency lock is on or off. However, when i go to a roms performance tab, i can clearly see the clock speeds dropping to 300mhz and sometimes nearing 2.6ghz despite the fact that trickster has them set higher and lower respectively My battery life has been decent (nothing compared to touchwiz as far as i can tell [placebo?]), however miscellaneous is gone from the battery stats. This applies for the first kernel and the new kernel you guys just switched too.

EDIT: also ive had a good amoun of random reboots too especially on the charger... maybe its because i need to clean flash? if a logcat would help ill try to catch it

Edit 2 I also noticed on my logcat when the interactive governor is set while plugged in, it is constantly logging changes to cpu speed, with power save you don't even see it. Could that be causing battery drain or is that normal?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
Msgs don't even work in hangouts or stock I've tried Google messenger and the others
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] drcrimzon:
I would say a clean flash before chasing it too much. I still get reboots, but very rarely, like maybe 1 every 2 days since the kernel change. I've caught a few of them, but not much help, happens right after a random app crash and some low memory errors.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
Yea i cant use them now cause of messaging thanks for all your work
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] drcrimzon:
I just flashed 0122 and messaging works fine for me. Does your signal say Sprint|Sprint or Sprint?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] pbedard:
Sprint
