CDMA Data on Moto Droid Turbo

[samed 3]

Hi All,

I have a Verizon Moto Droid Turbo 1 which I purchased in USA at full price.

Here in India, I have Tata Docomo CDMA sim (have a recent/fresh CDMA post pay sim aka problem sim). With this sim + Droid , the Data doesnt work. The Tata technical team debugged the issue and informed me that the APN username is 000-000-0072@vzw3g.com, due to this the authentication is failing. Then they set the APN as well, but it wasnt using it, not sure why.

When the Data is switched on, the network type keeps going back and forth from Rev A to 1XRTT and finally settles on Rev A without the Data. No data connected symbol is ever shown.

Here are the tests that I had done.

1. Problem sim + Droid Turbo (with or without APN) = No data
2. Problem sim + HTC one M7 = Data works
3. Other Tata docomo CDMA sim (old sim ~4-5 years old) + Droid Turbo (no APN settings required) = Data works

APN suggested by Tata Docomo CDMA:

Username: <mobilenumber>@omh.ttsl.in

Password: <mobilenumber>

APN name: <anything>

Rest of the fields were left blank or had default values.

Other than that, did a factory reset too, didnt work.

Any suggestions to get the data working would be great.

Thanks

Get a new sim, there are two kinds, white and blue, if you are using white then gets blue one, if you are using blue then get a white one,
This will solve the problem, has worked for whosoever I have advised.

Thanks for the response.

This is my second sim from them in a month and both of them have been a white one. And Tata Docomo Hyderabad has only these in stock. 

my older CDMA sims are of a different shade and they work absolutely fine in droid turbo.

Is there any other thing that I can do get Data working on this sim in droid turbo?

Nope, you should try a few outlets

The CDMA sims are only available at one branch (head office) in Hyderabad.

And to get a duplicate CDMA sim, I had to get an approval from appellate authority otherwise they always tell they dont have CDMA sim stock.

Have an update.

With official Verizon update for Moto Droid Turbo, which upgraded to Marshmallow, the issue is resolved.

Data works without any APN settings.
