4G Won't Connect

You should try the following per XDA

Below is my output using a terminal emulator. You do need root to run the su first. If you see those lines at the end, begin and end RSA, then you are ok. If those two lines are missing then you are hosed UNLESS you have a good Amen Ra 1.8 backup of your wimax partition. Otherwise, you need to get it exchanged at Sprint.

Open up terminal emulator and type in su

then type in the following: grep RSA /dev/mtd/mtd0

you will then get the following

RSA-REQUEST
RSA-REPLY
RSA-REJECT
RSA-ACK
RSA-1024
RSA-REQUEST
RSA-REPLY
RSA-REJECT
RSA-ACK
RSA-1024
RSA
ReRSA
RSA requests
RSA replies
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

Maybe my first post was a little long, but I did state I've done all that. Got the last two lines so my hope everything is cool regarding my RSA keys. However, lkillen's post made me fear that even if I have the RSA keys they may be corrupt.

Again, what I know: MAC address is fine (matches with what's under my battery), RSA keys are there, running a wimax log returns the error in my first post.

Thanks again for the help.

I'm having the same problem. Won't connect to 4G but 4 other Evo's in my house doo. Those are all stock non rooted.

Mine is rooted Fresh Rom 3.5.01 and I even updated radio and PRI using his methods.

When I tried this with Terminal Emulator, all I got was
<rsa>
</rsa>

Hate to say it, but I do believe your RSA keys are gone and that EVO will never have 4G/wimax. For some reason I have seen this more often with Fresh's Rom than any others. Might just be a coincidence, but still...

And as an update, I'm home with my son today and he's been running me all day. Haven't had time to work through those threads posted above. I will, though.

If the RSA keys are gone, you have to go to Sprint. There was a post about restoring RSA keys but it was bogus. They are encrypted and paired to your phone/profile.

You will need to get unrooted. Good luck.

I had the same issue and posted on the OMJ thread many times but was always told to search elsewhere. I flashed back to an old stock ROM and ran all of the steps again to fully root my phone and it worked.

Then you had your RSA Keys. Hopefully he will be as lucky.

Yeah, I might have to go that route when all is said and done. Some pieces of my phone's history are coming together a little throughout this process. I flashed to OMJ's 2.2 v3.0 back in late August from a release-day EVO (HW v. 0002) with no OTAs. I used the c:\evo-recovery method to back up as soon as I rooted, prior to any flashing.

One of the things I'm working on right now is finding that recovery image from evo-recovery (I posted in the FastRX8's thread kingsfan linked to above, but no response yet). Once I flashed to OMJ's ROM I had ROM Manager with ClockworkMod. I've since switched to Amon RA for a backup method. However, I can't find recover that original pre-flashing image using either ClockworkMod or Amon RA. Anyone reading this thread know how I would recover to that original non Clockwork/Amon RA backup?

Again, I'll work through the links in this thread later tonight when I get my son down to bed.

Thanks for everyone's help.

You keep making me nervous lkillen.

Are you suspecting there's something wrong with my RSA keys even though I get the:

-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

I haven't run across that situation much in my research.

Well I have heard a lot of people getting their 4g jacked by fresh's roms. I jumped ship to caulklin's roms and they smoke fresh's releases any day of the week. I have no issues with 4G on caulklin's roms either. Try his calk's latest [ ROM / 1-5 ] Calkulin's EViO 2 v1.7.6b [ 3.70 l Undervolted l Battery Saver script ] - xda-developers and see if it works for you.
