Hi there, thanks for the info. What area are you in and where did you find what band you needed? I have tried numerous times with all the bootstacks and never had consistent 4G.
[G3 General] akki7636:
[MENTION=3522545]mopartonyg[/MENTION]

I'm in India and i just checked my career's website to know which band they are using. However in USA Verizon wireless uses Band12 as Primary Band and Band2 , Band4 as Secondary band to strengthen the signal in densely populated urban area. So if you are verizon user in USA band 12,4,2 must be activated. I can't say anything about consistency as it varies from place to place. :)
[G3 General] TheLoonyRebel:
Actually Verizon uses band 13 for it's primary along with bands 4 and 2. Not having any luck getting data to work on Fulmics with this method. I select band 13 and band 4 (as band 2 is not in my area) yet even with that I still can't get data at all on Verizon with Fulmics.
[G3 General] b00ster23:
same boat here... actually the only band I can get working is 4. I have to assume the design of the international rom with the band they are designed around, just don't play nice with our CDMA harware/modem partition. I would suspect that the international roms would require some engineering for them to really work properly. not sure if just porting them over and chaning settings is going to get the job done. :) perhaps someone more intelligent than I could share some light, but there certainly is a conflict with how these roms communicates across the CDMA bands in the US

One thing i noticed here... that only Verizon sim users are facing problem regarding 4G whereas other international users like me ( and some of my friends in China are free to select any network ). So may be verizon is creating restrictions as when i was on Stock vs985 verizon Rom ( unrooted) , i was not getting any official ota updates. It always says your software is up to date. But then i found a statement in Verizon's website that you will not get any official updates if you are not having verizon sim.

So verizon knows what Rom and what sim we are using.

Sry 4 english
[G3 General] SignatureBoy:
I agree with this statement even i am getting 4G with Warid Telecom here in Pakistan.
[G3 General] akki7636:
Oh... Glad to hear that buddy..

So i think my post is useful for only international users which are not on verizon wireless. :)
[G3 General] b00ster23:
A couple of good approaches to the issue. Although it needs to be noted 4G is directly related to the band on each carrier (VZW, TMO, etc) See Below

Carrier	4G LTE Bands	Frequencies

Verizon Wireless	2, 4, 13	1900, 1700 f, 700 c

T-Mobile	2, 4, 12	1900, 1700 def, 700 a

Sprint	25, 26, 41	1900 g, 850, 2500

Europe	3, 7, 20	1800, 2600, 800

If a specific ROM cannot be set to the correct bands above, it would make sense to me that Verizon wouldn't work in Europe on a stock VZW ROM. It would not be able to use the channels in Europe.

And vice versa, that Verizon wouldn't work in the states on an international ROM in the US. Whether the Verizon SIM is blocking that band, or the design of the ROM, would be a better question for the developers.

Warid's approved devices will definitely work with Warid's LTE network. For our "Warid LTE Approved' devices please visit the "Warid's LTE devices" section. You can also purchase LTE devices that support 1800 MHz (FDD-LTE Bands 3) from other sources. However, Warid doesn't take responsibility for these devices if they do not work on Warid's LTE network http://www.waridtel.com/lte/faqs

So it makes sense that if BAND 3 works international (see above) that you get 4G :)
[G3 General] TheLoonyRebel:
The one thing I noticed after activating bands 13 and 4 (with the proper VS985 35B bootstack) in the hidden settings is when I searched for my network under network settings it does bring up Verizon but it fails authentication. So it's like there is something missing in Fulmics ROM itself that would get it to where the ROM will work with Verizon's network. So is it a matter of lifting whatever files from say 47A/47B into Fulmics that have the Verizon VS985 specific info to get it to work perhaps?
[G3 General] akki7636:
I think now its not a matter of bootstack. Because even when Required Band is activated we can't register to the Verizon. Xpirt mentioned in a post that he is working to resolve network issues in Verizon models. We can hope that this problem will be solved in next version :) However xdabbeb shared that the 47A modem won't work without the corresponding 47A secondary bootloader (sbl1). Unfortunately, the 47A sbl1 doesn't play nice with the last bump-exploitable Android bootloader (aboot) we have from 12b. If you use that pairing, you'll put your device into 9008 bulk mode(Hard brick).
[G3 General] TheLoonyRebel:
The good news is we do have 47A ROMs that are using the 35B modem so there is potential that Xpirt could use that as a source for a fix with the authentication issue. So [MENTION=5132229]xpirt[/MENTION] if you need anyone to beta test fixes my VS985 is ready to help!
[G3 General] akki7636:

[G3 General] DJRobBlaze:
This is good to hear and I second that!

Looking forward to getting it fixed and use it as my daily driver. It would totally be worth a big donation, thanks to everyone working on making this available to so many.
[G3 General] b00ster23:
Great discussion towards the development of the International ROM's for our VS985. I was able to get 4G with Andy's 30A ported ROM...although the signal bars never came up on my phone, I was able to get the 4G speeds. I noticed that the APN XML was filled with Chinese... :) So for whatever reason and way, my phone was able to grab "somebody's" 4G tower. I'm hoping the RIL (Radio Interface Layer) and libraries were pulled over and perhaps this could provide some more insight to [MENTION=5333324]Xspirit[/MENTION]
[G3 General] akki7636:
Cool buddy... I think our vs985 will be on 4g Speed very soon. :)
[G3 General] netookska05:
I am on BlackSoulxxx latest LG G3 Tekcafe v5.3 D85530A-Full G5 ROM. Here's what I did to get the bars with 4g data. I tested it out in areas where there is no cell service and in areas where there is 1x or 3g and the 4g came back. I even made a backup of the ROM wiped and installed another marshmallow aosp rom and others. I then went to restore BlackSoulxxx ROM and 4g signal still came back.

Steps I did.

1. Tot'd back to stock 10b and rooted and installed twrp.

2. Flashed LG_G3_Flash2BackupEFS.zip of the 10b rom.

3. Wiped stock 10b and flashed the 10b G3_EFS_Flashable_Restore.zip that was created from the the LG_G3_Flash2BackupEFS.zip.

4. Flashed BlackSoulxxx rom and after it booted up I had signals but not data until I entered the Verizon APN manually see picture of what to enter. If mobile network is greyed out flash 35b bootstack.

5. I entered the verizon APN and selected CDMA then global I got the 4g icon with signal bars I changed the icon with a buildprop edit.

I just don't get signals while in 1x or 3g but data does work still and it will get 4g again if your in a 4g area. The phone does say T-CDMA 64. Here's a https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-EyVOQK1xDAa0VmbERXcUlrV1U/view?usp=sharing to change it to Verizon Wireless courtesy of [MENTION=5132229]xpirt[/MENTION].
[G3 General] b00ster23:
Great job posting your step by step instructions. I've been able to achieve all of the same on a host of international ROMS however with a couple of caveots. I can either have SMS/MMS working properly, or break SMS/MMS and have internet with signal bars. Question about the file above. This will just modify the header, or will it specifically put you on the Verizon network?
[G3 General] netookska05:
It'll change just the ROM from saying T-CDMA 64 to Verizon Wireless for Verizon users (VS985).
[G3 General] b00ster23:
So when you go into the About Phone>Network, does it say Verizon Wireless for the network?
[G3 General] netookska05:
yes it does I'll post a pic here in a bit I'm on WiFi at the moment.
[G3 General] b00ster23:
I'm checking the settings against this ROM, as well some of the other international ROM's. I would continue to say, that perhaps you don't get the 1x and the 3G signals is because of the radio interface libraries (RIL) and a combination of what bands are enabled in the ROM. Will post my findings as I get time.
[G3 General] taz1458:
So if I'm reading this right, people are getting the 4G to work on Fulmics now?
[G3 General] netookska05:
Tomrrow for fulmics.
[G3 General] taz1458:
Where did you see that at? Lol
[G3 General] b00ster23:
What he's saying is that testing will be done....Right now on the TekCafe International Rom, which is good news.
[G3 General] netookska05:

[G3 General] b00ster23:
Ok, so I've tried the settings you've listed and was not able to send MMS. SMS is sending without issue. Are you able to verify MMS functionality? Also, can you please verify MMS functionality with the Fulmics ROM you've screen capp'd? Can you please post what changes you've made to the build.prop to change the 4G icon as well? HA! I'm asking for a lot , I know so thank you in advance!!!
[G3 General] netookska05:
mms not working its the app itself. Needs modding to work on cdma. Use the buidprop app to change icon. It might look like it didnt change just reboot and use lowercase on both if it dont take do it again.
[G3 General] gearmaker:
This is good news! I never would have thought to tot back to 12B and then flash.I did all that you did and have 4G.I did the LG_G3Flash2Backup as well.It seems that not flashing the 35B bootstack has gotten us a little further.On reboot the 4G sometimes goes to 3G, but flashing the EFS flashable restore brings it right back to 4G. I did not have to make any Network Mode changes.I left it on GLOBAL and it just works.

I am trying this on Fulmics 5.1

These are my build.prop changes:

ro.product.name=g3_vzw_us

ro.product.locale=en_US

ro.build.target_operator=vzw or VZW or VERIZON (got 4G with this)

ro.build.target_country=US

ro.telephony.default_network=10

build_target.target_operator is interesting.All caps do make a difference.As noted VERIZON spelled out seems for me to work the best.

I don't know why.Also no "R" above signal bars.Still no active signal bars but phone is in service and with 4G.

I can receive MMS but cannot not send.

Edit: I also made sure that telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=1 and not =0
[G3 General] BlackSoulxxx:
great findings, guys. I will link this thread to FAQ section of my Rom and will look at that 12B bootstack...
[G3 General] MonstaSaleens:
You don't have to tot back. Just flash a 12b rom and backup it's efs ( not using twrp cuz it doesn't work that way) just saves time. This is what I did and my data is working now.
[G3 General] DarkFamiliarity:
Hello, did you flash the 35b bootstack after flashing fulmics or before flashing fulmics?
[G3 General] mubaidr:
After flashing filmics rom.
[G3 General] DarkFamiliarity:
Thank you for the reply. I have no data working at the moment.. did I do anything wrong? Fulmics 5.3 here.

Carrier is airtel 4g. I can call and send sms but no mobile data :\
[G3 General] mubaidr:
You can try selecting right network band in the advance menu from fulmics tweaks app.
[G3 General] DarkFamiliarity:
I selected band 3, still no luck. I reflashed the rom without xposed and for the first 10 seconds of the boot, I saw the 4g symbol.

After that it never appeared again. Data roaming is on.
[G3 General] akki7636:
I told you in another post also.. Airtel uses band 40 ( 2400 mhz) where as officialy vs985 works upto 2100 mhz... Band 3 can be activated via hidden menu but not band 40.

There is typical method to activate all bands but there are high chances your phone will lose imei
[G3 General] DarkFamiliarity:
Ah okay, thank you for the clarification. Do you know any other good stock based ROMs? the G3 UI looks horrible..
[G3 General] akki7636:
My pleasure. :)

When you are talking about stock based ... You will get same UI with every rom.

You can try aosp roms to have pure android experience. But all aosp roms are in beta stages
[G3 General] DarkFamiliarity:
Ohh okay, so no roms with ux 5.0? That sucks :/

Im going to try resurrection remix. Hopefully data will work on that. If that doesnt work, ill try a debloated 47a.
[G3 General] b00ster23:
With the latest 6.0 update I was able to achieve 4G on the Verizon SIM here in the states. You can find the post in the fulmics thread.

Well, not sure I would say that the issues have been "fixed" Default clean install gave me the following error when trying call. Similar as before, I can have data or I can have calling, just can't seem to get both going together. I will try the install again, and apply a few other tweaks. FTR...I'm using a VZW SIM in the US. (Yes, I flashed the 35B bootstack) ;)

EDIT #1

Was able to get SMS/Voice working together by switching to CDMA+LTE/EVDO mode. However, MMS still is not functioning... Will try GLOBAL and tweak the VZW APN and report back

EDIT #2

GLOBAL mode allows voice to work and SMS as well. MMS fails with "Message not sent: invalid destination address" Have to assume the MMS PORT and MMSC address are not set correctly in the APN. Will continue to test and report back.

EDIT#3

I've changed the APN settings, as well GLOBAL vs. CDMA/LTE, etc The best case scenario I can achieve is that I can get voice/internet/sms/MMS RX. I still cannot TX MMS... Extremely close here and it does appear that the APN settings are hard coded. [MENTION=753984]xpirit[/MENTION] if we could hard code the MMS settings into the current APN, we may have a good chance of 100% operational.

EDIT #4

Although I stand behind my original findings in EDIT#3....I did find a work around. The stock app will not send MMS...in addition neither will Google's SMS app from the playStore. However, I can finally say SUCCESS.!!!! Textra will TX and RX MMS/SMS Also, my current settings will allow 4G signal and voice calls. I can post all of my settings if anyone is interested. But the biggest key is to use a different SMS app, like Textra... I'm thinking of now opening another thread specifically for the VS985 variant and tweaks necessary for Verizon services and apps. Please let me know if anyone is interested.

EDIT #5

I thought I would put a step by step instructions list of the things I did to be successful. Perhaps this will assist in some of the longer search times.

1.) Wipe

2.) Flash Fulmics 6.0 zip

3.) Flash BlueTooth Fix here https://mega.nz/#!6N1TiYJL!JuQlv0H4fX2WZoZwqWGvDxeJeHvbhtDx7K1ZfSCv-T0 from [MENTION=753984]xpirit[/MENTION] fix posted here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68236373&postcount=16041

4.) Flash the 35B bootstack here from https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347843993 from [MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION] http://xdaforums.com/verizon-lg-g3/development/xdabbeb-s-vs980-2-0-0-t3231279

5.) Replace the APN attached-set perms on the file, like the rest of the files located in system/etc. Reset APN to default in Mobile Networks and choose the first APN option. Set to GLOBAL.- REBOOT You may need to add an APN and set the MMS port to 80.

6.) Install 3rd party SMS app that allows MMS sends, as the stock SMS/MMS app is not able to send MMS at this time. I used Textra....
[G3 General] b00ster23:
For anyone following this thread, with Fulmics 6.0 now released, I'm curious if anyone would like to work with me bringing stability to the VS985 inside and outside of the US. I'm on VZW, and I've currently moved away from the Fulmics ROM as it was getting too muddy. I've done some tweaking and was able to achieve 4G with calling, but had lost 3G connectivity. I've tweaked the build.prop and now have achieved 4G and 3G connectivity on VZW. I'm getting 1 error when dialing out stating "Can't find your country" So I'm hashing thru.... Anyone interested ?
[G3 General] DarkFamiliarity:
I'm interested as I have a VS985 which I'm using outside of the US on a non verizon carrier. However, I'm not very experienced with build.prop tweaking..

[G3 General] jacob05:
There was a same issue with me but I have lg d852g using here in India with Vodafone carrier. So I just wanted to share my experience on how I managed to get 3G working accidentally.

After flashing Fulmics my phone details were -

mra58k

lg d852g

Fulmics 6.7 (after OTA updates)

kernel ...LGMobile@lgea...

I was not able to get 3g on my phone even after using correct APN and after trying few basic stuff here and there.

So after reading this thread I went to hidden menu under Fulmics tweaks and tried changing to band 3 (which vodafone here supports for 4g) with a FAIL message.

Then in network mode I selected "Automatic". It said success. After a reboot it started showing me "H". That was such a relief after spending couple of hours on it...

So wanted to share in case this works for any of you...

[Moto X Q&A] brookemels:
Hey y'all! Just curious if the Moto X updates it's bootloader every time it gets OTA updates? I recently was gifted a Verizon Moto X which originally ran Jelly Bean and OTA'ed up to Lollipop. It's no secret that Motorola has no intention provided further updates–and it's widely known that Verizon phones are notorious when it comes to bootloader's. I'm looking to attempt running sunshine after rooting, but I'd just like some community feedback before I take on this little guy! Thanks in advance!
[Moto X Q&A] PetitMorte:
Not all Verizon OTAs update the bootloader, but some do. Depending on which version of the MotoX you have, sunshine may not work. My wife has a MotoX 2013, and had we sunshined it *before* she updated to lollipop, all would have been fine. But we didn't, so now she gets no bootloader unlock love.

You can always check with Sunshine's support chat folks to see if your phone is unlockable.
[Lenovo A6000/Plus Questions & Answers] sammill02:
After installing the lollipop update I lost the rooting to the phone.

When u flash new rom, you have to root again, no way for permanent exept root option include in the rom
[Lenovo A6000/Plus Questions & Answers] Gueztar:
You wanted to root again hah? Flash SuperSU.zip (based on my knowledge stock LL cannot/hard to root withe root.apk like kingroot. So, i think the latest tricks is flash the supersu.zip) but still... if you are Advanced User :cool: if not dont trying it :p
[Lenovo A6000/Plus Questions & Answers] MukulGamer:
Dude sometimes root doesn't install properly i don't know why... I am on stock with 1.4Ghz oc kernel... Thing happens to me is that whenever i reboot my phone. Root stops working and says su binary needs to be updated.. I just have reinstall again and again to keep it working after boot.. So do u have any to solve it?
[Lenovo A6000/Plus Questions & Answers] Gueztar:
For me root still work even on reboot. To root my phone, i flashed SuperSU.zip with custom recovery twrp. How about you? Did you using same thing like me or by apps like KingRoot.apk?
[Lenovo A6000/Plus Questions & Answers] MukulGamer:
Yup obviously.. By SU... I never use kingroot... Well i know it shouldn't have happened... Btw fresh rom install will solve it.. But i don't wanna do that.. Setting up phone again and again suks.. I just asked it because i thought if you might have had this problem! Thanks btw
[Lenovo A6000/Plus Questions & Answers] AXAz0r:
To clear things up. Think of root as a system module (binary) ("su" module located in "xbin"). Each time you install a new OS, core partitions need to be formated (/cache, /data, and ofc /system). If the SuperUser module is not pre-installed in the new firmware you are flashing, it can be additionally obtained through Chainfire's installation zip. Nearly all custom ROMs have it and will work just fine, with some needing user input to activate it (Settings > Dev Settings > Root Access). While stock ROMs will NEVER have root capabilities pre-loaded.

So, all in all:

No, there is no such thing and will never be, as permanent root. Everything is being overwritten all the time.

Rooting and re-rooting the A6000 is safe and easy.

All this would not be possible without Omnirom Team guys that work on the recovery part of Omnirom, yes, my TWRP is build based on Omnirom recovery tree.

As for the device tree, the one used its the one from CM13 to our device. To see the changes go to is gerrit / github of Omnirom and CyanogenMod.

Big thanks to all of you guys.
