I'm unable to flash the -R2 APN fix. Is anyone having this issue? I was trying it out for the 5.1.1 ROM.

CURRENT STATUS

***Note - your warranty is now void. If your phone dies, its on you.

This is a continued work in process. This version was built for the universal lte builds most ROM builders have moved to.

Currently we have working 4G LTE with both MMS send and receive working on CM / AOSP ROMs via Hangouts and stock MMS with mooknightus fix. This fix is to achieve 4G/LTE connections. Stock MMS requires the fix by moonknightus (Thanks to him) for the stock MMS fix.


This mod will:
1. Search and edit appropriate lines in build.prop
2. Reset the telephony databases (first boot will take a few)
3. copy + correct apns-conf file
4. Add / update the eri.xml file


Directions:
Flash ROM
Boot up first - reboot recovery
Flash Fix
It may take up to 5min to connect
profit....

Starting with 4.4.4 ROMs I found that you may need to boot first after flash, then go back into recovery and do the fix to take hold.

First boot may take a few minutes to bring up 3G/LTE symbols and get internet connection. The telephony database is being rebuilt - give it a few minutes. If you get an acore type error then try to flash ROM, boot, then flash APN fix.

username9730 said:

Lost 3G. Tried your method. Is there any way to get 3G back on official CM12.1?

P.S.: LTE works now...

Madbat said:

My 3g works fine. Works on every 5.1.1 ROM. Give it a few minutes to settle, it will work.

username9730 said:

Its been a couple of hours and still no 3G. I'm going to try it again and see what happens.

Madbat said:

Are you trying to switch to 3g? It will do that automatically when you leave a 4g area.

username9730 said:

So I can't switch to 3G in Settings?

Madbat said:

You should be able to, but why would you?

Madbat said:

It works if you follow my method.
1. Proper wipe
2. Flash ROM, gapps, and apn fix.
3. Boot once to system
4. Boot back to recovery and dirty flash ROM and gapps again (no wipe no APN fix).
5. Profit

When you say boot once to system, do you mean reboot after phone set up or reboot after it says aicp is upgrading..installing app 56 of 93?

So, I've been working at this for a few flash's now and I'm getting SMS, 3G, and MMS via Hangouts, but I am unable to get LTE/4G data at all. I've got a SPH-L710T, and my baseband is L710TVPU0AOF2, running Liquidsmooth Lollipop(5.1). I've tried using this flash, and a few others (one of which didn't do anything, the other put the phone into an infinite loop while booting). I've waited for about an hour each flash and still no LTE has appeared (and I'm also confident that 4GLTE is abundantly available in the area). Does anyone have any advice on this?
