VS985: Lost IMEI, Can't Make Phone Calls

I'm having problems with my VS985 after downgrading including losing the IMEI and especially the ability to make phone calls.

So I got a used VS985W that had 35B installed on it for one of my kids. Having put CyanogenMod on my LG G3 (VS985) successfully, I started down that path. I used the TOT method to flash back to 10B, then used KDZ to upgrade to 12B. Then I rooted, installed TWRP, and then CyanogenMod. But I couldn't make phone calls.

There are numerous things I've tried, but it's still unable to make phone calls, usually giving out of service area, but when trying to use the *#06# code, I get an error of "missing IMMI or such".

At one point I found the IMEI had gone to all zeros. I managed to find a method to fix that. I also switched out SIM cards between phones; same issue - it's the phone and firmware.

The only thing that seems to fix it is to go back to stock 35B. Then it makes phone calls. But then I can't root it and restore the apps/data we backed up from the previous phone (LG Spectrum running CM 11).

I have done hours of searching and reading these forums along with others. I've redone the downgrade and root and TWRP install and tried numerous things but still can't get phones calls in stock versions less than 35B or in CyanogenMod (12.1, not 13, which I did try to install but never could get it to reliably boot back up after an installation, so finally gave up and went back to 12.1).

Anyone heard of this before? I can't find it. I did see in this thread post #4:

Unfortunately this link doesn't work (moved or deleted). I'm continuing to search, but it almost seems like I managed to royally muck up some partition I didn't mean to? I've tried following the advice of a number of posts, too, on related, similar aspects, but I'm getting to a point of slight insanity. Along with a kid that wants their phone (and the old one has the older style SIM so not just that easy to deal with just switching unfortunately).

Any guidance or thoughts Much appreciated. Am going to continue to try the various things I'm reading about. Thanks, -Mark

Hi All,

I hope this helps someone out there, just got off an call with VERIZON about 1 hr later and they were ready to get a replacement out to me.

Found out that I declined a feature HD voice (no charge) and if you do not have this feature it will drop your calling reception to 1x.

After hard resetting, new SIM replacement, etc... Found out you have to go in Settings --> Advanced Calling --> Activate Advance Calling, Restart the device and 4GLTE sticks.

:good:

I hope this helps others.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quangtran1:
Yes, this is how VoLTE or XLTE works. It allows you to have voice and internet simultaneously. However, if this service is not available in your area, and the option is enabled, it can have adverse effects -- ie: static calls, one person cannot hear another, etc.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slimc84:
Also, if you go from LTE to 3G the call will most likely drop. I have had that happen a few times while on the phone.

So the NOTE 4 has a massive screen but even on the advanced touchwiz interface, there is no option to have 5 or 6 rows of icons on the homescreens. I find this odd and unusual.

I use Nova Prime and my s-pen functions normally and I don't believe there's any less functionality vs touchwiz
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabi11:
1 less functionality that I know of when using another launcher - you can't pin action memos to the home screen.

It only works on TW.

Without rooting, you will still need to choose a different launcher.

switching roms

somewhat of a noob here...I am on verizon 26a modem, running xdabebb's G3 rom that was ported to the G2. Can i just flash this over top? Or do I need to work about Kernel issues? Also, does knock on/off work?

Attempted to flash

Flashed 12b radio, but then got this error after I started to flash ROM. It started then after it flashed supersu I got the following:

unmount of /system failed; no such volume

assert failed: run_program("/system/bin/loki.sh") == 0

Can you help?

What recovery are you using? Also, did you do a clean install and in the order I posted?
[Verizon LG G2] Revelance:
beanstalk L is amazing...BUT!

I love the setup of this ROM..plenty of options plenty of customizations HOWEVER I've had two issues that are rather aggravating.. While using Pandora it will intermittently stop playing music to the point of having to reset the app...(might try uninstall and reinstall?) Also I'm having an issue that started while using Pandora and now happens every 15 mins it would seem (have not timed it) but its rather regular that my phone will reset randomly..tried wiping cache and dalvik and fixing permissions and it still does it! Any ideas??
[Verizon LG G2] liv3dn8as:
did you do a clean install?
[Verizon LG G2] Revelance:
Doing well

yes i did, infact i flashed over to another 5.0 version just like the beanstalk build and it was nice but i wasnt satisfied with the overall layout like i was with beanstalk so i flashed back to beanstalk and ever since ive had 0 issues, its turned into my daily driver and i enjoy it throughly, thanks for posting this one up m8!

No Cellular or Wifi

I ran into such a headache installing due to my own blunder, but now I have it working. I have to add, I LOVE the boot animation. Had to get past the Setup Wizard and reflash the 12B Radio to get signal on WiFi, but I cannot get data signal over LTE?

Baseband: 12B-M8974A-AAAANAZM-1.0.190050

Network: NAM1

Mobile Network Type: CDMA -eHRPD [this is odd, as I have STRONG LTE signal]

Roaming: Roaming [I'm aware this is known?]

Edit: Flashed back to stock 11A. No signal. took OTA to 12B, gained 4G LTE signal. Then future OTA's granted me signal as well.

Any idea what I might have done?

rom issues

Hi guys, I have a Verizon LG G2 (vs980) with a 24a radio. The rom not works for me, the flashing process gives me an error then I have flashed the 12b radio via twrp (2.8.4.0 version) and now my device is not booting on my stock rom (the verizon logo is showing up but anything else is going on ...). I know that I can flash the 24a radio to restore my previous radio but I didn't copied the zip of the 24a radio to the phone, so my question is how to copy the zip of the 24a radio to the phone via adb for flash it with the twrp ??

I hope you can help me, please !!!
[Verizon LG G2] Dignified Pauper:
I had to flash back to 11A via a .tot file, then upgrade all the way to 27A via OTA. I then did stump brute-force for root, flashed TWRP Recovery, then flashed to this ROM. It is working incredibly.
[Verizon LG G2] liv3dn8as:
Hi! You should be able to use adb in TWRP. Which version TWRP are you running? You can also enable MTP in TWRP and then copy right from your PC. Also, did you did a clean install?

So no power cycles on day 2. I went through and configured all my settings. I wonder if the lift to wake feature being on is what caused the power cycles and v screen constantly turning itself on. Only issue I have now, which I'm OK with, is the screen not turning itself on when a call comes in or when I take the phone away from my ear during a call.

It will respond to voice command and attempt to search my request but no results populate. Same if I type in a query in the search bar. If I search within the Chrome Browser I have no issue getting results.

What am I missing?? I was running 5.0015 just fine with gapps. I only upgraded to 5.0025 because the roaming thing was annoying and I was starting to get connection to mobile data/wifi issues. Google Now was working fine...

Radios

I don't know if this is a legit question but here goes.. I have a cabin located about 3.5 miles from the nearest cell tower and have a Wilson Wireless with a dual band transmitter. I have a stock M8 and a stock G2, when I first got them my M8 would rarely get good data but the G2 usually would. The G2 has updated to 27A and it now does not get good data just like the M8, both get good phone. I bought a G2 off ebay that I could hack since I swore I would never hack a daily driver without a backup again. ( This is all just a little over my head ) The rooted phone with Beenstock and the 12A radio get much better data then the stock M8 or G2?

Can you by chance explain this to me? is there anything I can do to improve the signal in the stock phones? Thanks, bd

Forgot, thank you this seems to work great, I just got the sim adapter so I can use it more!!

I assume there isn't a workaround at the moment for the lift-to-wake issue and I should rollback to the previous version right?

I'm also having an issue with the secondary actions on the navigation bar. Long press doesn't invoke a custom action (back, home and recent). Other actions work fine though (e.g. kill task).
