How to get Data working on KitKat 4.4.2 Both GSM/CDMA(NV) without reboot LG G2 Sprint

[Vinod Nayak 443]

Install the following:
Titanium backup
Root Explorer
BusyBox
APN Backup & Restore

Once busybox is installed select install and reboot, DO NOT RUN any for the apps for now.

Data used to work on all modes [CDMA NV, RUIM & GSM] with ZV7, ZV8 & ZVA.
With the G2 on KitKat 4.4.2[ZVC] data either worked on GSM SIM or CDMA NV, RUIM data does not work, it says "Service Disabled" on Lockscreen.
I have managed to get Data to work on both CDMA NV and GSM SIM, meaning you can switch between networks with data working on both
without rebooting the phone. To be frank its a very simple trick anyone can do. Below is a noob friendly tutorial, just follow step by step.

NOTE: Since the names of the apps are too long im gonna use short form of the same to make this easy for me.
Titanium Backup = TB
Root Explorer = RE
APN Backup & Restore = APNBR

VERY IMPORTANT:
Switch the phone to GSM/UMTS mode, At this point your phone should have a APN saved and Data working on it. This also means CDMA NV data will not working since the GSM is working.

Run TB and goto backup/restore, look for APNBR.


Press and hold APNBR till you get a popup menu, in menu select "Convert to System APP"


Once the APNBR is converted to system app it should reflect in red as shown.


Run RE and go to /system/app/ folder


Look for APNBR app as shown


Press and hold to get secondary menu, select move, you might get a Warning about system being read only, do you want to remount as read-write, select yes.


Go back to system folder and look for priv-app & move the APNBR apk to that folder.


Now run APNBR, you might get a warning about APN can not be restored or deleted bla bla bla. just select ok.


Use the top right corner menu and select "Disable ICS Check". Select Backup APNs


It will tell you to name the backup, just leave as it is or name it according to your choice.


Now that your APN for GSM is backed RUN APNBR and select Delete APNs and press ok


At this point your GSM data will stop working, Now switch to CDMA/LTE in network mode and since GSM APN is missing your CDMA data should kick in.
To get the GSM DATA back again, switch back to GSM/UMTS and run APNBR and Restore APNs, your GSM DATA will kick in instantly.

I second the views of Amit Routray. Vinod Nayak's dedication to this handset is commendable.

Kind of reminds us of a certain Doctor and his fascination with the Samsung Fascinate

Hello! I am from Ukraine. I have LS980, unlocked for GSM and I have a questions:

CDMA NV - is it the number of my carrier, flashed directly to my phone?

I'd like to have GSM voice and CDMA data working on my device both at the same time.

Can you tell me,please, is it possible to make calls from GSM SIM while I use CDMA data?!

Does my device support it?

Would be very thankful for urgen reply!)

[Vinod Nayak 443]

Any one at a time either CDMA or GSM you can't mix em, this is a single standby phone not dual.

RUIM has its own user name and password, which is usually pulled while establishing the connection.

Its difficult to understand what is causing service disabled on this phone, no information is available from Sprint either.

Your MEID is registered ? If not then it's not possible to get it registered as they have stopped registration of MEID.

If it's already registered then you confirm your MEID in phone settings/ about phone. Take the set to web world, show them the MEID ask them to transfer you Reliance to that. Then follow this tutorial.

Sir how wud i know if my meid is registered or not by the seller who sold this phone even he doesnt remeber this stuff

Nd i read sumwhere people who register meid by charging 500..

1. They calculate A-key from esn or frst esn from meid then A-key

2. They send me A-key and ask me to write A key to phone via any dfs or cdmaworkshop

3. Then i need to sjow it to reliance n they check by activating a network temporarily if succeeded they get me a number

Am i ryt?

I don't think it's registered. You will be able to use the phone with Reliance RUIM mode only & also GSM mode, but one at a time.
