OK Boost users, I was wracking my brain and reading some older Verizon forums for the Droid Bionic and I "think" I've found the answer and I need some testers to verify my findings...[emoji16]

(Fresh installation of ROM/gapps.)

1.Place this eri in data and chmod 0644.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B46DbOH2IgChV1pHbExzN2ZGRmM/view?usp=docslist_api

2. Place this apnconf in root/ect and chmod 0644

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B46DbOH2IgChX1gwcXdPM3kzeG8/view?usp=docslist_api

3. Add the following at the end of the build.prop

##Edits##

ro.telephony.default_cdma_sub=1

ro.ril.force_eri_from_xml=true

ril.subscription.types=NV,RUIM

ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric=311870

ro.cdma.home.operator.alpha=Boost Mobile

ro.telephony.default_network=8

telephony.slteOnCdmaDevice=1

Now make sure your device is set to lte, ruim/sim in settings reboot recovery and factory reset this part is CRUCIAL. I've had success on EOS and AOSP so far....
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] DanHutchins:
How do I go about doing this I have only tested full ROMs and know a bit about the code I have no clue how to do this that you have suggested
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
Pull your build.prop and post it here I'll throw together a flashable zip and see if that works.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] sirhc:
I'll test when I get home. I ran out of data but I'm sure the LTE icon can still show up if it works for me

P.S You might want to get rid of the screenshot with your phone number showing. We have stalkers on XDA lol :p

Awesome, let me know if it works and we can get the dev to incorporate the findings.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] sirhc:
Is a factory reset mandatory?

EDIT: Did it! But 3G shows instead of LTE. I have LTE Preferred selected and RUIM/SIM also. I think its because im out of data but i can confirm data is showing with these settings changed now
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
Yeah the factory reset is a must or it has been on the AOSP versions. Now that we have the right edits maybe the OP can bake it in. [emoji16]
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
Can also confirm LTE and 3G data as Boost Mobile on build #53 using the method I have posted. [emoji16]
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] tattooedgod:
I tried it on pac and only 3g so far but I'm going to work to see if lte works
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
Cool let me know, I've used it on AOSP, EOS and CM12 haven't tried Slim, PAC or tipsy yet. But the chances are it will work as most people are forking his git for their builds. The developer is aware of the fix now and I've sent him the getprop so he's going to add it to the init. Looks like true unified builds are coming. [emoji16] [emoji106]
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] sirhc:
I'm still amazed that you figured it out man. That's genius! Lol :thumbup:
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
Just a whole lot of trial and error and digging through various other CDMA device forums. Like with most things Android the problem was not unique to us or our device just had to spend the time looking and trying various things. [emoji16]
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] sirhc:
Definitely true, I'm thinking about building a ROM for CDMA users, just have to refresh my memory with AOSP a little bit. I'm not trying to build CM since scritch has that down, I want to build pure AOSP using his device tree of course and maybe cherry pick some features lol
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
Looks like the CDMA fixes have been incorporated and the carrier/provisioning bugs are squashed in build #54.(just have to set ruim/sim) [emoji106]

[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
Wonder if the OP has it set already in the init?
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] sirhc:
It has nothing to do with data. That happens to me often when I flash a new rom. You have to wipe Data and Cache in the Playstore app
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] DanHutchins:
That works only if you have data set to 1x but not working at all on 3g or lte
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] sirhc:
For Virgin Mobile? Mmm I'm wondering the same. That last Apn conf only had Boost and Sprint related stuff. Virgin Mobile is the same as Boost and Sprint but the Apn is Different. I don't see any VM specific stuff in here either
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
Working on LTE and 3G here...
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] scritch007:
I guess that if Virgin mobile is xt1526 but has different APNs, we'll have to figure out how to make the difference between both of those phones.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] sirhc:
Add it to the apn_conf Google search the VM universal LTE fix. Its the same as the Boost Mobile one, then add the configuration.

Still seem to have issues with Google play store on build 57 have tried clearing data and cache for the app and for Google+ and Google app also did a factory reset nothing works. The issue is that the app will not load on 3g or lte must set data to 1x for it to load someone said that its not data related but it works perfectly on stock ROM so could someone please tell me best place to get gapps cuz the ones from open gapps are issues.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] hydroman202:
I wonder if the surnia sprint variant has a LTE fix? I tried to do the fix where you replace eri and APN conf, but it didnt work. (I also edited the build prop). Any ideas anyone?

[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] DanHutchins:
I'm on the stock package now and have tried all of them and get same issue with all
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] isaiahdr:
I activated my xt1526 on Virgin Mobile with the Stock ROM and found out that I was not even able to connect to LTE with the Stock ROM where I am. I assume the network here is crap, so I went ahead and flashed build 57 (09/29) and it seemed to be working fine with the network preference set to 3G. However after using the phone most of the day, I noticed that it started disconnecting even 3G connections, and now it doesn't even want to let me connect unless I have preference set to 1X. I tried replacing the build.prop and both /system/etc/apns-conf.xml and /system/etc/boost/apns-conf.xml with the stock version of these files (from before I flashed). This doesn't seem to make any difference, even after reboot.

---------- Post added at 01:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:19 AM ----------

I should note that this is not related to signal strength, cause I drove up to a hill in town where I had -44dBM LTE signal with no change in behavior.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] zilla1000:
I have XT1526 Sprint on Ring plus service; the LTE does not work. It is working on the stock 5.0.2.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
If all the CDMA variant users(not Boost) could pull radio logs and getprops, that'd be great. I think as I had mentioned previously that we're going to need an eri/apn overlay that runs at boot. The script basically runs something similar to fastboot oem config carrier "Your carrier here" which is what ended up working on the Moto G. I'll dig through the git and find the commits and forward them to the developer. Hopefully it'll be something that'll work for all of us too.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] isaiahdr:
I was able to fix 3G at least on my VM xt1526. The reason it worked initially, then quit is because of the eri.xml/apns-conf.xml files that are in /system/etc/boost/ conflicting with the VM LTE Fix that I flashed. The VM LTE fix puts a new eri.xml in /data/ and apns-conf.xml in /system/etc/, then deletes the telephony database so that it will be rebuilt. On first boot it works for a while, then after everything finishes rebuilding it is corrupted. I removed all eri.xml and apns-conf.xml files from my phone, then manuallly replaced them with the ones from the VM fix and deleted the telephony database and rebooted. 3G works now along with call and SMS. LTE is not working and MMS is not working, I get "No APN specified for the device" when I try to MMS. I have attached a getprop and logcat -b radio output for reference. Let me know if I can be any other help.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] blcistheking:
Yes on 3G
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] isaiahdr:
Virgin Mobile

All in all, with the exception of the LTE issue, I'm happy with this ROM. Here are some minor issues I have experienced so far:

1) I used the menu option to set LCD density to 180. I didn't like it so I set it to 200 and while restarting the UI, the phone crashed and rebooted. I was then able to set it to 200 without any issues.

2) I was unable to register whisper push, but I think this has something to do with CM and the fact that I was previously registered with TextSecure (I have had the same issue before with CM11).

3) I used to be able to see the weather on the cLock app with the phone locked in CM 11. I can't find any way to do this with this ROM, which is not a big deal, but would be nice. Maybe its just not an option with CM12.

4) MMS not working.

4) I tried both TextSecure and SMSSecure and both apps fail to receive SMS messages after a reboot, until I log into the app (this was never the case for me in previous ROM's with TextSecure).

I'm running:

Build 57 (9/29)

OpenGApps Pico + Velvet.apk

Jenkins Kernel 3.10.49-g95859c3 (came with ROM)

I'm planning to try Squid's kernel also, to see what I think but maybe not until after I'm done with testing the ROM.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] isaiahdr:
Virgin Mobile

My connection was jumping around from time to time between 3G, 1x, and occasionally disconnected. I saw that the "Set preferred network" setting in the *#*#4636#*#* menu was "LTE/CDMA Auto (PRL)". I then flashed back to stock OEM ROM (for Virgin Mobile with Enhanced LTE) and checked the same setting. On the stock ROM it was set to "CDMA Auto (PRL)". I flashed back to my latest CM12.1 backup and changed to setting to "CDMA Auto (PRL)" and have had 3G for about an hour now without any drop or switching that i have noticed. This is much better than what I was getting with the old setting. I'll go out tomorrow to a place with better LTE signal just in case it made any difference for LTE.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
Could you tell me where to get the VM stock ROM? I have tried to find it to no avail
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] isaiahdr:
As far as I'm aware there isn't one publicly available yet. I took a TWRP backup of my phone before i did anything else. I can provide a copy of the backup if you are interested, however I have read that there are issues restoring backups from other phones due to the serial number differences, etc. I believe it can be done, but you might want to research it before trying.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
Thanks, i have a twrp backup of the stock 5.0.2 ROM and as you and I both know it is a memory nightmare. Did you flash the virgin APN fix by any chance when you installed 12.1? Every time I flash it twrp crashes and tells me the file is corrupted, not exactly sure of the reason. I am going to flash this ROM today and use squids kernel, I am using the EOS ROM currently but overnight I lost 3g,calling and text and I made no changes. I can live with 3g but ill gladly post any logs etc to help with this ROM. Thanks for getting back to me, appreciate it.

You are on Sprint, right? I'm on Virgin Mobile (Sprint subsidiary) and I have not yet found an LTE fix that worked for me. I have 3G, calls, and text working. No Outgoing MMS or LTE.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] isaiahdr:
Just in case you meant for this to be tested generally, it did not make any difference for MMS or LTE for me, FYI.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
So I replaced the build.prop,the eri & apns

And double checked as much as I could. I still have 3g,text,calls but not lte yet, I tried changing all of the options in settings to LTE with NV etc...let me know if you need a logcat, I'll have access to a PC with adb today if you need me to grab one for you. We are getting close :)

Keep in mind that is my build.prop from my previous ROM that has been edited, I don't know how it will affect your phone
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] hydroman202:
I have an idea. If someone is willing to try. Maybe someone could take a look at the original filesystem, and grab the APN Conf from there, and then use that to possibly get LTE. Just a thought.

You guys on VM and Sprint...download an app from market called APN changer,

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.appando.app.changeApn

If you haven't tried yet, make sure to put the bearers to LTE for all APNs that have the same DNS name as the normal one that you use, and the others at their defaults.*
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
The build.prop soft bricked me, i reinstalled CM and I'm getting things back up and running now
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
Was the prop you provided yesterday cm or eos?
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
Eos, that's what I was using at the time.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
That's your issue. Can't use props universally. Just take the edited lines from the prop I supplied, add them to the bottom of your cm prop, then add the apnconf and eri I provided.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
OK cool I will do that. I am somewhat busy this morning so after 1pm or so I will get back to you. Really appreciate the help,we're close now
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] isaiahdr:
I tried this, however I don't think when I did that I deleted the telephony database to force it to rebuild. I might try that tonight with the stock apn/eri.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
OK so I did these steps and rebooted and now my phone reads Virgin Mobile as my carrier correctly but still no LTE. What I need to do is put in the VM LTE Apn settings for US in the app you suggested, I'll try to track down the correct info now
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] starkly_raving:
Yes...use the APN app I linked and see what your default APN is set to.
[E 2015 CDMA Android Development] Sands207:
Default is set as metroPCs, I tried to make a new one for virgin but I couldn't save it for some reason. Should I try putting the VM info into the metropcs entryw?

There's not an APN listing for VM? If not yes overwrite one of those with the correct info and make sure the bearer is set to lte.

Has anyone experience?

For VR, it is much better to use a phone with a higher resolution. It works fine, but because of the 720p, you will see pixels
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uchihakurtz:
I bought one, it doesn't work well with Z1C because the magnet sensor location is different (at the bottom instead of the top). You have to trick the VR apps into reverse-landscape to make the trigger works. Also it's pixelated inside because of our low PPI. But it works well on my sister's LG G3 so... it's something.
