Ok i need help. Im not new to rooting and roms however im no where near a pro. I have a sprint note 3 sm900p flashed to boost and activated by them (boost). I have had no data for 2 weeks aside from wifi. I have LITERALLY searched high and low EVERYWHERE including here and nothing has worked to restore it. So basically i rooted and played around with a couple touchwiz roms and then decided to go to temaseks cm 12.1 amd all was well for weeks. Then one day i noticed i didnt get 3g so i messed around with some settings and the best i could get was it to pop up and then disappear but at that point lte still worked so i was ok with that. I ended up flashing back to a stockish touchwiz and my phone kept trying to do the hands free activation that wouldnt work. prl update and profile update wouldnt work. (yes i have read high and low on fixes for those too, but anways no data at all. The crazy part is that my phone on the touchwiz roms shows 3g and 4g lte wherever they are available i just cannot connect to internet or anything else involving data. My wifi works and calling and texting works as well. So i called boost tried to explain to them i did a data reset cause i was having issues ##72786# and it messed my phone up because i didnt know what other reason to give. anyways they were adamant we try it to fix data so i do and then all of a sudden i dont have calls or texts or data so they have me do ##msl# and sure enough my mdn and my msid somehow get switched to some crazy 000000 numbers at the end and they have me reenter my phone number and msid and then phone reboots and calling and texting are fine again but still no data. So we hard reset ##786# and that did nothing but delete everything on the phone which i knew it would except it didnt fix my problem. then they give me a bunch of crap how they arent sure and that they will send me a new sim card (nned it for lte with sprint note 3 on boost) and that should fix my data 3g and 4g. Currently waiting for that card but dont think its going to fix anything. I have absolutely no more ideas on what to do. I have tried everything i can think of and searched a million different ways and cant find a single thread relating to my exact issue. PHone currently can make calls and texts as well as recieve and wifi works. but absolutely no 3g or 4g anymore except phone shows it in the status bar. SO PLEASE IF ANYONE CAN HELP OR HAS ANY IDEAS PLEASE PM me or leve a reply or ANYTHING....i just want to fix my data.
Sprint Note 3 programmed to boost NO DATA

- Start date
boost Data Fixed
TW Roms Build Number N900PVPUEOC5
Well Im no Programmer But I got my data Boost mobile data working on my note 3 after i got the run around from boost
and sprint by trying to reset phone add this and add that. FIRST BEFORE YOU START U WILL NEED SOME APPS AND PROGRAMS ON COMPUTER
first switch over your phone number (MDN and MIN) by calling boost or do it over the internet. Then when they are good then we need to switch the phone over by going to setting by dial ##MSL# (Copy MSL number for later) boost rep will give it to u when setting your phone up.
After u can make a call and text your phone is connecting to network just have to get APN working to get data simple as that
1. I reccomend Installing A recovery CWM/TWRP By Odin (See Website) Then do a backup incase something get screwed up or deleted
2. Need MSL So u can edit setting (Call Boost or Hack It)
3. PRL Helper on Playstore (Flashes the Prl file)
4. Root Explorer or ES File Explorer might need SU Acess (see Rooting or Flash rooted Stock Rom by TWRP
5. Su access if not u find out how to root http://honai-android.blogspot.com/2013/11/how-to-root-galaxy-note-3-sprint-sm.html
6. Advance Signal Status is good to make sure your antenna is on the right setting mine was on gsm/CDMA which was wrong.
TW base Rom ( You wont be able to add or change the APN since the APN is not register to sprint APN in the sim.. Mine was locked to page plus phone but was baught as a sprint note 3. Dont know if it hardware related or Rom related but it would not save when changing the mcc and mnc numbers. Mine was locked to 311 and 00 and needed changed to 310 and 120 for sprint for those settings and would not change it would just delete it when trying to save it.
1. First u need to copy contents from carrier-GS4.zip over to the carrier folder from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2628452 thanks to him for uploading it.
2. Now when u reboot your notice it say sprint or Boost dont remember which instead of chameleon on service provider And now u can edit APN since the MCC and MNC is correct now.
3. You will have to go to APN folder in ##DATA# click edit and enter MSL.. For some reason u cant modify it in the Rom APN setting (Dont Understand Why) but u can in ##data#.
4. Now u can delete the old Apn setting and add new or correct APN Settings.

If u cant add the APN through ##data# u can try the boost unversal boost fix at http://androidforums.com/threads/bo...al-boost-apn-fix-for-d2lte-builds-mod.840501/ through twrp. Then go back in ##DATA# to see if u can change the APN .
6. go to MMSC in ##DATA# and see if it correct say http://mm.myboostmobile and all that is correct.
7. Now check for currect prl since it can make your 4g not work if not current like mine was a old apn.
8. Download a current .prl file searching on here or internet u can find them. While searching I could find boost .prl 33030, Current is 33041 (2015), Sprint Prl is 55026 seems to work fine.. But put the file on the sd card and open prl helper app u downloaded and flash the prl (Your Phone Should Restart)
9. 4g should be working now mms text working
sprint activation does not work so u can ether disable it
10.Now u should make a TWRP backup.
TW ROMS Build Number N900PVPUEOH1 I dont know if this goes with all roms with this build number but I recently upgraded by Samsung Kies 3 to experiment with and did factory reset and found that APN seting are able to be change and can save it.
On ASOP Roms You cant update your PRL. So it not a bad idea to have a TW backup so u can update the prl time to time. But enough about that on ASOP roms there isnt much prob to modifing the APN to work it just some roms dont have the listing for the APN since sometimes its hidden. If u cant edit normally you can use Xshortcut From PlayStore or similar app. If that doesnt work you can also use boost unversal boost fix from above in TWRP to see if it worked. I used it before which added the necessary APN but if the radio messes up by not connecting automatically. You can erase the data on cell broadcast in the manage apps and it should fix any connection prob. I would recommend making a backup before flashing any thing from TWRP since u cant redo if it messes up. Thats about it so if it didnt work u can try other ways people posted on here. Just reboot and see if it stays connected.
I hope this helped anybody that been through hell trying to go through sprint and boost for help.

Thank you so much bro that did the trick have literally tried everything and was only able to get 4g no 3g. I knew about that fix but I didn't know it would work for the note 3 and it literally fixed everything thank you so much bro.

can you show me the link that you downloaded and flashed? and what version note 3 do you have>
SIM Card
I am waiting for the SIM Card from Boost.
They told me that I should be able to get 3G without the SIM Card.
I was able to write the APNs for boost using different ROMs but I can't get 3G.
Maybe I do need the SIM Card to get both 3G and 4G LTE?

Ya they did that same thing to me because on their end ( which I'm sure they told you) your phone is receiving data and fully working according to their system data even though obviously it isn't just like mine wasn't. While I was waiting for the new sim card I did receive 3g and when the sim card came once i put it in and
They helped me walk through it I was right back at square one which is probably where you will end up even though I hope not for your sake. Either way do exactly what maximum overdrive ( I believe it was him) says in his post above. I only had to flash the boost mobile fix ( s3 thread I think but search will get you to it) via twrp to get LTE back but my phone wouldnt get 3g at that point. I was on temaseks rom. The zip file says it only works for touchwiz but I had other results as stated. My network went from unknown or chameleon back to boost. I then flashed the s6 port by sacs and played with the apns ( you can find info above) and manually do it. I did it through the data menu (##3282#) I believe that's what it is....I then got 3g and LTE then I flashed temaseks ROM again and only had LTE again. Then I flashed dirty unicorns and after toggling airplane mode a few times got the apns visible and edited in the boost apns and deleted the others rebooted and bang profit.... I have both 3g and 4g again... NO THANKS TO BOOST OR SPRINT..... I LOVE XDA!!

Hello all.. I have been scouring everywhere for a fix to my problem and I think this is it.. Quick run down of my situation..
I have a S900P (original owner) Sprint's coverage at my old house was **** so I bought out my contract and just put the phone in storage. FF to now. I get amazing 4G LTE at my new location. So I reactivate my note 3 with Boost. Everything is fine till I start playing round with flashing custom rom's, at which point I was unable to get ANY data service on ANY custom ROM. (deodexed stock ROM's worked fine). I've lost track of how many modem/baseband/software combos I have gone through but here's where I'm at now..
I am using the original Sprint SIM card which came with the phone.
I'm pretty sure at this point all I need to do is get a new SIM from Boost, and proceed from there using my current build. Please let me know if I'm on the right track, WAY off, or What.
As always THANKS XDA for your godliness!!
A few points of clarification...
My phone has not given me a boost splash in quite a while, only Sprint.
I had another strange issue 2 days ago while, after another failed custom ROM flash, upon unrooting and goig back to 100% stock OK2. I wasnt able to use their DATA/Voice services (no text or phone calls) However the 4gLTE never stopped working.
