Verizon Moto E 2nd Gen - XT1528 - data connection problem after 5.1 upgrade

Recommended Posts

It is Always better to stay on 5.0.2 in Moto E, only in case when your phone is not active and you are not able to use Hotspot on 5.0.2 , in that case only activate phone (Sprint (personally tested) + boost ) on carrier site via very easy step by step procedure (No need to pay anything). After activation check in setting- Device activation- Your phone will show device active and show the number which u select from activation site. After that upgrade to 5.1 via Air update and then u must be able to use Data as well as Hotspot on your Moto E.

Moto E 2nd Generation Boost/Sprint (XT1526) Updated to Lollipop 5.1 and Data/Hotspot both working Smoothly........

Problem is only in Verizon...

Does this imply Sprint's version of Moto E XT1526 comes unlock just like Verizon Moto E XT1528? Thank you.

Thanks, as the phone i am getting has already been activated on Sprint for testing by the seller, i will put the sim inside and test the same to see what all works. Will update post hopefully everything should work fine. It will take 2 weeks for me to get the phone. So waiting for the same now.

Hello All,

Can anyone advise how to activate Moto E 2nd Gen on Sprint ?

It would be so nice if someone can suggest step step by guide.

I need to have Hotspot on it.

I have purchased Sprint Moto E 2nd Gen (XT1526) that was previously activated on Sprint's MVNO (RingPlus). The seller told me that UICC Lock Status shows that it is unlocked for international use. Domestically (in USA), it will only work on Sprint. The phone has Lollipop 5.1, but it should work here in India as per UICC Lock Status. This seems to be consistent with what others have reported here...that Sprint/Boost Moto E 2nd Gen data works overseas even with Android 5.1.

Based on what I have read recently, it seems Verizon Moto E XT1528 with 5.1 is still an issue. Voice/SMS works, but not 3G/4G data. Has anyone identified a workaround for XT1528?

Is the 3G/4G data issue with Verizon XT1528 Lollipop 5.1 limited to CDMA? Or it impacts GSM mode as well?

Can you please provide the step by step procedure link to enable Hotspot on Sprint's Moto E? Thank you.

Do you need special SIM card from Reliance for either XT1528 (5.0.2) or XT1526 to make 3G data work? Thx

Verizon MOTO E 2015 XT1528 isn't unlocked for Indian GSM Bands

I bought 3 of these phones (MOTO E Xt1528 verizon) but gsm doesn't work in India. I tried Airtel, Aircel, Idea, BSNL, Vodafone. None of sim card works

Network App, 4G Lte Switch Apps doesn't work for Indian GSM

The problem is only 850 MHz and 1900 MHz GSM bands are enabled on this phone as per specifications but Indian GSM carriers use 950 MHz and 1800 MHz GSM bands and for LTE all Indian carriers like Airtel use 2300 MHz (Band 40)
I read on xda that GSM and LTE bands can be enabled on Qualcomm chips. I tried tools like QPST, DFS but none of them worked smoothly. I can guarantee that this verizon hardware is same as Global varients of MOTO E 2015 as all GSM bands are enabled on those varients

Motorola doesn't allow bootloader unlocking for this xt1528 verizon version. I would like to know if anyone got succeed with Indian GSM carriers on this verizon MOTO E XT1528

What is the Android version on these devices? 5.1 or 5.0.2? 5.1 has problems with 3G/4G data. With 5.0.2, 3G data used to work with Reliance (EVDO data). Do voice/text work with your GSM SIM card?

What do you mean by "No issues"? 3G/4G data doesn't work with Verizon Moto E with Android 5.1. Forget the Verizon Moto E. Just get Sprint Moto E XT1526. It is internationally unlocked and can be used as GSM (via network app) or CDMA device.

Which carrier are you using Sprint Moto E for? Reliance, Airtel? Sprint/Verizon Moto E doesn't support LTE band class 40 (TDD LTE), hence it can only use 3G data (EVDO on Reliance/Tata/BSNL) or (WCDMA(UMTS,HSDPA/UPA) on Airtel/Vodafone/) in India.

This video claims

Verizon Moto E XT1528 Android 5.1 works overseas (Orange / Claro in the Carribean). Has anyone followed all the steps outlined in the video and got it to work here in India?

I have brought Moto E 2015 Boost (XT 1526) running 5.0.2. The person who sold me this phone told me that hotspot is not working, but everything else will work. Now while going through this thread, I came across posts which mention steps to enble hotspot through online activation. But when I put MEID No, following msz displays - There was a problem with the MEID/ESN provided. Double-check it was entered correctly and try again. Otherwise, please call Customer Care.

So, will hotspot will not be enabled on this handset or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you Kapil for the feedback. A couple of comments.

1) Can you please confirm it is 3G EVDO / CDMA (3G1x) High Speed Data and not 2G data?

2) Can you please elaborate on Steps 2 and 3. What does "Mod The Sim" mean? Can you provide details for "Put APN"? What were the settings and what did you modify to make it work?

Thank you so much.
