So I got an unlocked Verizon-VS980 LG G2 (I have t-mobile) and when I first started the phone it could connect to the t-mobile service right away, however after a few minutes of playing with the phone, it knows there is a sim card, but is not connected to t-mobile. The only way I can get this to work is to switch over to an AOSP rom but I really want to use a stock one. Currently using Xdabbeb and it's still not working. Any help would be great!

Yeah for sure it was unlocked. I used it for a few days before the problems occurred.
If this is any help, I've used Mahdi rom and it worked but, but I hate using Google camera and most custom cameras don't support it. Also the battery life isn't where i like it to be (using greenify and all the other what nots)

When you got the device did you buy it from someone and did it already have a rom installed?
To make this quicker you can email me at "[email protected]" so that we're not waiting for responses on here for hours.

It looks like there aren't any ROMs based on the T-Mobile formware on any of the forums. Are y'all getting the same data speeds on the international ROMs? Is there a tmobile radio to flash?
You should be able to flash any in the HTC One Forum. Our device is the M7 so you should have no issues. Only problems some people have been seeing is from ATT so far with roms that don't have the proper RIl files and this is believed to cause the radio to switch from E, H, and LTE chronically.

thanks, i wasnt sure if our device was M7 or not.
stupid question, but does flashing the roms on the international one forum **** up the radio?
Only if the ROM includes the radio. As far as I know, no one is including radios in their ROM's. I would personally hold off flashing any radio until we get a flashable zip, RUU, or other means to go back to the shipped radio. Some users are having issues with the WWE radio on Tmobile and ATT. Some may think it's just the rill files too.

Yah that's the one bummer about non T-Mobile ROMs. It's impossible to get WiFi calling working. Has to be a T-Mobile based ROM.

It's the same thing after you unlock the boot loader and have a custom recovery

I mean, the "you can sort of unlock the bootloader but you can't have S-OFF" is obnoxious but it isn't any easier to bring your phone--if anything, the limitations placed on operations done in recovery make it harder to actually brick your phone since the boot and recovery images are normally flashed in fastboot.
But yeah, Nexus phones are much kinder to tinkerers. News at 11.

Yeah, that's what I did too. Only mildly sad to give up wifi calling; I never go over on minutes anyway.
Can't wait until there's T-mo specific roms. I get absolutely crap reception in my apartment and NO reception at work, so i desperately need wifi calling.
What we need is a good all around android dev /Rom chef to dedicate there time to our branded HTC one.
I hope Roms aren't gonna be generic forever leaving us with partially set up Roms/ having to flash radios constantly and whatnot !Never knowing what's compatible and what's not .
If that's the case I foresee a lot of angry people and jtag sales in the future .
I'd give it a month or two before we have a few 2-4 dedicated tmo HTC one roms 100% ready to flash and go just for us only .

The international HTC one got the camera update which is a night and day comparison, my question has anyone gotten an OTA on tmobile, can you flash an international OTA on a Tmo rom?
I was also wondering how this update will be delivered to tmobile and other carriers. Does an update like this have to go through carrier testing or can it be delivered directly from HTC?

Since Wifi calling is built into roms bow that the pretty much impossible. You can try tmobile super old Wifi calling app. That might work.

It has been said that until we get specific roms for our tmobile one's there's no way of flashing an international Rom and still having WiFi... So you have to ask yourself what do you prefer better camera quality or wifi calling...
Me personally I can live with the camera for now.

According to the latest android central podcast... The HTC one in the US was released with the camera update, so there won't be any new update.
Yeah, they got OTA'd to what ours (all US) shipped with. The camera is already fixed.

We are talking only about the camera fix.. the us versions came with that. Obviously the international update has additional bug fixes along with the camera update. Not sure our useless carriers will push that fast.
There are 2 fixes.
Originally it was 1.26.
The first fix improved camera quality greatly- 1.27. This is the one t-mobile is on.
The second round of fixes (1.28 and 1.29) also improved camera quality (although less so) and the capacitive buttons. Very slight battery increase as well.

No stress. We will get this one figured out in a hurry. I have another S5 in transit to use for dev purposes.
Would be sweet if it was in plain text like we found on the HTC SENSATION. That wont happen on a Samy device. We can still dream though.

Hey guys. So I'm new to the z2. I bought an unlocked D6503 off of eBay and it works great on with T-Mobile Sim, gets LTE no problems. I've been using it fine on T-Mobile on stock .314 and various stock based Roms, but I just read that T-Mobile might use a separate kernel. Could this be why I can't get reliable data on any non stock ROM?
Is anyone running any non-stock based ROM such as CM, AOKP, or PA on T-Mobile's network?

Yeah , U.S. Just tried CM11 and same darned thing. Says LTE but no data coming through, restart and data works. Then I use WiFi for a few mins and turn it off.... Right back to LTE symbol and no data coming through. This the most annoying problem ever. I feel like it has to be some kind of access point name or baseband issue.

I think for whatever reason, it won't connect to IP4 on Tmobile. The one that's set normally doesn't ever work unless I change the protocols to IPV6, or select the "Tmobile IPV6" APN. That has to be the issue causing data to not be able to hand-off from wifi when wifi is switched off, but question is why?

Thanks. Must be something on my end I guess. Did you happen to have flashed anything not stock or stock based on it while on Tmobile? Did it have any issues then? Mine works 100% normally on stock or stock based but has issues with the data described above on any AOSP, CM, PA whatever ROM. That's why I'm convinced it pretty can't be a hardware issue, or it would be screwing up on stock too. In theory...
