Hey buddy, I notice in a forum, you posted something about modem sym link for the boost phone data to work, I could really use that, the link seems to be down for the download, I wouldn't supposed you have it? Do you think you could make a copy of it and email it to me or something, I would appreciate that so much! ? My email is [email protected]
You mean the boost apn fix? I might have it, I'll check. I'm on virgin mobile so I don't normally keep boost stuff, but I might. Be right back.
Ohh you mean the modem symlink for flashing normal L710 ROMs on the L710t? I think I got that.

here is the apn fix.

And below is the modem-firmware symlink fix for flashing on the triband.

Here it is.
If the ROMs are flashing for you, you might only need the apn fix. If you flash ROM gapps and apn fix and everything works, don't worry about modem symlink. That t at the end means triband, it can be a little finicky.

The APN did not fix it unfortunately, what does it do? I choose rom cm13 marshmallow for sphl10,this is not my model, I have sphl10t, and everything works except the Sim card, the modem sym download is not working, I absolutely appreciate how helpful you've been, what can I do to fix this?

Ok, cm13, got it.
Here are the steps.
1.Full wipe, system, data, cache, dalvik.
2. Flash ROM, gapps, boost apn fix, modem symlink fix.
3.Boot up fully
4. Setup on wifi if you can
5. Boot back to recovery
6. Dirty flash ROM and gapps only (no wipes or any other .zips)
Boot back to system and LTE data should be working.
On a side note, since cm is gone now, Lineage has support for our L710 now (should also work for 710t) and is on nougat.
When cm stopped, many of the developers forked it and created LineageOS. They do weekly builds.

The apn fix zip adds the apn for boost. These ROMs are for Sprint and need proper apn settings for boost, virgin, FreedomPop, ting, etc. For some ppl they work without apn fix, some need it.

If you try LineageOS 14.1, you don't need the additional dirty flash. Just flash ROM, gapps, apn fix and modem symlink zip. LineageOS 14.1 and ROMs based on it are the ones that some people with the "t" variant say they no longer need modem-firmware symlink fix. So you can try without it 8f you like. But you will need boost apn fix every time.
