Hello everyone. I'll make this quick and easy question. I have successfully updated to 3.35 radio, and tried several different custom roms in the past 2 weeks... At some point, i lost my internet connection, went back to stock rom successfully, and tried entire process over with and without the new radio (depending on which rom i tried according to instructions) and still no internet. I have spent literally over 4 hours on the phone with bell (Canada) to no avail. Only other option is to beat it with a hammer. I have noticed a couple people have had the same problem.. i have read these and PPC forums for hours and hours and hours, to try and fix this and get my Data connection back. tried almost every Rom i could find... to no avail. I'm just wondering if anybody had a sound fix for getting the Data connection back working again before i go to the store i got it from and freaking out and trying to get a new phone, or sending it off for a warranty claim which they say could take 6-8 weeks. Thanks for your time.

This happened alot when
we were changing radiios
and roms on the Titans.
Most of the time the techs had to reset the
data security on their end. If they cant figure it
out , flash back to stock
radio and rom and go to
the store and swap it
out. Tell them you did
a hard reset and lost your data connection.
Good luck.
if you have another pda phone, get your carrier to activate it on your account, set it up ... get data working ... then get your carrier to switch it back to the one that had lost it's data connection, set it up ... try the data connection ... works every time on vzw ... I do the esn changes online ... give it a try ... couldn't hurt

just spent another hour on the phone with tech Support, he tried resetting the Data Security, completely removing my device from our account and putting it back on, and he also had one of his own Touch's with him, he added it to my account, and it worked fine.. still nothing on mine. Grrrrrrrr!! this is megga frustrating... its been a week 1/2 and now 5+ hour on the phone and an hour at the repair shop yesterday. he re-esclated the problem and now i have to wait again for somebody to call me. I really don't want to have it sent to HTC becuse it will take 6-8 weeks, and i truely think its something in my phone itself as a result of "playing" with it, and i'm just hoping that somebody can come up with something that I havent already tried to get it working again. Thanks for you time once again, and keeping my fingers crossed.
Go to the epst settings.
Find username and password in there ( i guess data parameters??). It will be wrong. [email protected]
change it to the right ones.
that is EXACTLY where i went a week or so ago. i found this information in another post, and the UN is there, but no password, and Bell insists there is no need for username and password... but i disagree... i also think this is the problem.. i really do... any ideas how the heck i can get what my password should be?
in teh Data parameters, the only thing that is in there is Packet Dial String ----#777 In the security section is the UN and Pass. field. Is this where you were talking about maybe?? or is there something missing in the Data Parameters section?? UN showing is [email protected]
GRRRRRR!! This really sucks.!! BIGTIME!. Ive been fooling with this thing since 6Am... lol One thing that i did forget to mention, is... when i say no data, or internet.. this is what happens..
When i try any app. that wants internet, it will bring up the connection screen, "Connecting to Data, network... #777" type thing..... sometimes it will just sit there forever and ever... if i hit cancel... then in order for me to even make a phone call, i have to soft reset.... sometimes... (about 50% of teh time) it will come up with an error screen after about 5 seconds of trying to connect, and it says "Unable to connect for an unknown reason, if you need to view or change settings, tap settings, if teh problem continues reset your device according to manufactures instructions, and try again."
I just downloaded and tried the new Sprint Leaked rom, with the 3.37 radio, and still same thing. i still think it has something to do with the Username and PW in the ##778 settings... because i do remember seing a bunch of (hex) information in the PW field in the past when i was snooping around and now its gone.... I even tried converting the two numbers that bell gave me to Hex and putting them in there... and nothing... the one that i seen in there before was a big ass long one... Anyhow... i'm almost giving up i'm soon going to get extremely angry and beat it or throw it off the 20 floow balcony just for kicks... <g> Thanks for reading.Any help is appreciated.

i am not with bell, so dont know what do they use. Maybe somebody else can confirm if they are supposed to be empty or not.
may be try empty username and password.
Then try the username you have right now and esn as your password.
i know on telus both will work.
YES YES YES YES!!!! ohhhh yeah babby!!..
i FINALLY got it working!! Yeeee hawww... if only you knew how happy this makes me... deer gawd...
I'll post what i did in the AM.. i can hardly keep my eyes open...
Thanks for all your input!
wanna share? i haven't had internet for the last three weeks and i am going nuts, tried with bell tech support for roughly 3 hours on the phone two seperate times and nothing. Please share

First off I have the Sprint Vogue. Ok this morning I decided to update my phones Rom and this that and the other. I found NFSFAN's custom wm6.5 and I am loving it but now I have some issues.
Everything is loaded and partially working. I really like it but somehow and somewhere there are problem. I don't have internet access any longer, it dials out to #777 and then goes away like its connected, but when I went to update my email, weather, and then to try Skyfire.... I get no connection no internet, or something in that nature. So I looked in a few folders to look at some setting and nothing is out of order.
Here is one of my messages that I get when trying update my weather:
Couldn't establish internet interpreter.Connection
Line 1
(Temp\rartmp99.802\titaniumWeather.mscr): connect ("The Internet")
I think I may have the fix for Titanium Weather but I still need more help.
Then I get a window for:
Network Log On
Resourse: Data Connection
User Name:
Password:
Domain:
I looked at this setting in my network connection folder and press the finish button when I was done looking at the information since I couldn't find an exit button.
Another issue is my MSID is set to all zeros to the best of my knowledge is should be the same as my current phone number. I have tried ## this # that and I always dial out and an operator comes on saying the number or code entered is invalid.
Am I over thinking this or how do I fix this. I am getting frustrated with the searching and digging and not getting anywhere, can someone please help me with this?
also does it matter that my phone use to say it was the VOGU 100 and now it says its the VOGU 200
Are you with Sprint?
There is a ton of info in NFSFAN's thread regarding getting Sprint back on the internet, just search.
Thanks for that, I did use the search on this upgrading forum and couldnt find what I needed..... Thanks juddy, after a few minutes I found my answer and it all works now. All that was needed to be done was to revert to his/there 6.3, make sure that it all works and then revert back to 6.5. I am getting on the internet, weather is updating, emails are syncing onto my phone. So far so good only time will tell on how well it works. Thanks
Hi all,
have had my Desire for a couple of months now, well pleased with it. I have not in any way modified it other than installed some apps from market. This afternoon after lunch while it was in my Brodit car holder I suddenly noticed it was asking for PIN code. Entered it, fine. But then a couple of minutes later, same thing again. And again.
Just now I was typing an SMS to somebody and just before finishing screen blanks out, then the screen asking for PIN comes up.
What the heck?
Anybody who has had similar problems and knows what causes/caused them?
I haven't had the battery or sim card out or anything, it just suddenly started doing this.
Cheers
//Joris
*edit*
I have tested switching off the phone, removing battery for a couple of mins then reinserting and rebooting, but same problem persists.
Wonderful, we're going on holidays in 2 days.... :'(
Well I couldn't for the life of me figure out what the problem was, tested with another SIM but same. Completely random, sometimes it would last half an hour sometimes not even a minute.
Did a clear storage/hard reset and after that all seems fine. Except for that my conversations were still there, but somehow if I get an sms from somebody now it's added to the wrong conversation. Then if I reply to it, it goes to the person in the conversation, not the person who sent the msg
Deleted all msgs now so should be sorted. Think a problem with all contacts syncing to and from Microsoft Outlook, it messed up all phone numbers like this:
46 2342423423
so no + and a space between country code and phone number. ANnoying as heck but haven't figured out if there's a setting in outlook or htc sync to solve this.

What ROM/Radio is it running?? is it unbranded??
I have no idea. Bought from Komplett here in Sweden, i.e. unbranded and unlocked. It's running what it came with since there haven't been any updates and I haven't the balls to start experimenting about with it
Strange, I just picked up my Desire today. I rooted it this evening and only noticed it happening after rooting it. I didn't run it for very long unrooted though, so I don't know if it's related. I wonder what's causing it.
maybe this helps:

Thanks but it goes to SIM lock rather than phone lock... like when you first switch on your phone. The phone doesn't reboot though, it just asks for the SIM pin all of a sudden, even when you're doing something on it.

i also had this problem (well more or less) for me it happened when my cellphone signal dropped to limited service (or no services at all) after the phone picks up a signal again its asks for a pin. you mind want to check this out aswell. i fixed this by going into the settings and fiddling around with network/mobile operator settings and such, soz i cant remember exactly, but this did the trick for me.
hope it helps.
I was going to take it back to the shop when I thought I'd try a different ROM first. I installed the OpenDesire 3.0.1 Froyo ROM last night and so far it hasn't done it yet. Maybe the official Froyo ROM won't have that problem either.
Tester app
Hi
I've been having the same problem on my X10 Mini Pro for the last couple of days. To try and figure out what's causing this I've made a small app that checks the sim-status periodically. If it's not available or a pin-code is required for unlocking it the phone starts vibrating plus default notification-sound.
If you're fast you can check your device's LogCat with aLogCat (available from market). At least you'll get notified that you're unreachable
Since I have no Market-account yet you have to upload it to your phone manually with adb. Search google for a howto.
See attached file.
Hi!
Do you have Exchange 2010 sync?
Hi have the same porblem with LG Optimus 2x.
Tom.
OK, Firstly, does anyone else have the Defy on the Three network and is it working alright for you??
I'm just trying to figure out whether this is a phone problem or a network issue. Basically I'll unlock the phone, go onto google, search for something and that's when the wait starts, it's really weird, I'll have full 3G signal, and neither of the little traffic arrows will do anything, which makes me think it's not a network issue. Absolutely all network traffic locks up, including gmail, market etc
But then if I make a phone call and hang up it will start working again fine. All I can think is that it's just a little software glitch in my phone. Does anyone know if Motorola will send me a ROM update/repair tool for the phone because I'm guessing it's something to do with that, or even try rolling back to Eclair 2.1 to try that. And yes, before you ask, I've tried many times doing a full wipe/factory reset and it makes no difference.
I've quadruple checked all my APN settings for Three which don't even have usernames or passwords and even checked the settings were correct in the secret service menu. Also when I had the problems I ran a ping test (in the secret menu *#*#4636#*#*) and they all returned "failed could not find ip"
It's just so weird how random it is, I can't work it out. Maybe the defy really isn't compatible with three.
If anyone's got any ideas please please please leave info below.
One other thing I forgot to mention is that the defy was previously locked to Tmobile(uk) and was unlocked using a simple unlock code, no hacking or modding involved
Hi mate,
I've been using my defy on 3 UK with no problems since Jan. I've been on eclair the whole time. Currently the 2.51 stock.
Olly
So I wanted to see if somebody would provide me with the settings they have for the SMSC. Starting this morning I was no longer able to send text messages and I know its not an issue with a ROM or anything because I Odin'd back to factory and I am still having the issue. This isn't the first time I have had an issue with a GNex not being able to text and I had to take my old one back to the store and get a replacement because they were unable to fix. I think I stumbled upon my problem/solution and was hoping that somebody from this great community would help me out. Could somebody do the below and paste what settings they have or give a screenshot. THANKS in advanced.
Open Dialer
Type the following sequence *#*#4636#*#*
Open Phone Information
Well for starters, My first Gnex had this issue a few days after receiving it, approximately one month ago. This morning I noticed I was once again unable to send or receive text messages. Up till now, I have been stock with root. I have been scouring pages and forums trying to find more info on this problem.
Unfortunately the farthest I have gotten is a wiki page on Cyanogenmod that goes through the process of updating your SMSC based on your Carrier's Gateway Number and putting it into PDU format. You can fidn the gage here.
To make it worse, as I thought I was going to be able to manually update it and get SMS back up, i still receive update error.
To make matters worse, for the past four days calls drop out every four to six minutes regardless of coverage. Not just on my line, but my wife's and my sister's lines as well. However they have not been able to reproduce any SMS problem like the one I have once again come across. I'm pretty close to dropping Sprint even if I've got a year left on contract.
Thanks for the reply. When I went to update or refresh the smsc I would get an error as well. This is my second GNex and really frustrated by it. I ended up odin'ing back to factory to and called sprint. they had me re-activate the phone *#*#72786#*#* then a few minutes later it started working again...
Well at least you were able to get yours working again. I've performed several resets via the 72786 menu to no avail. I went to a store today, to see them try it themselves, and eventually reactivate it. After seeing my problem was the same as the last, They decided to order a new/refurb phone. If this doesn't work out I plan on going back to my Evo 4G or just dropping my line on Sprint.
Well last night the modem died completely, this is some bull****. Can't connect to any sprint towers, makes me wish I still had my old phone. With 3 lines I just cant spend that much money to leave sprint.

I completely understand the cost of leaving sprint. I'm in the same boat with three lines as well. I have read up that in many cases an etf can be waived by returning the phone.
I am currently waiting for a new nexus to get shipped out here. If this third one doesn't hold up I'm going to have some bickering to do with account services. The other two lines are only experiencing dropped calls every few minutes and after talking with several reps, there is ongoing maintenance in my area.
What I want to know is why can't the smsc number be updated. And then why after wiping system and data and then flashing stock, that the smsc still cannot be updated. Something about the smsc cant be updated or there's a read error, corrupted sector, i dunno. I feel like I have exhausted everything I can think and tried everything I can. Not to mention this problem seems relatively isolated.

Well I Did manage to get my evo working, it still has some bugs... For some reason the phone goes to a sleep mode or something and when someone calls me it goes straight to voice mail, also I don't receive my text messages sometimes for 20 to 30 mins or hours after someone sends them. i can make a call & Then it seems to work right. I have had a few times where when I tried calling out it didn't seem to work either, I think it would go to there voice mail or say this call could not be completed or something. ( It doesn't do that very often)..
It Seems Like It has this problem of losing the network after I switch towers from one town to another or when I plug it in to a computer or charger but not for sure.
My internet seems to work always weather 3G or wifi though 3G sometimes is really slow untill I reboot my phone & seems to pick up for a while.
Thanks

Sounds like you might need to update your PRL. (either automatically or manually). Have you done that yet? You should update your data profile also while you're at it.
pm me if you need more

I having a similar problem with my phone, my phone does show 3g icon however I m only getting 130kbps. I been reading all over the internet until I found this post that shows that AAA key is phone specific and if not configure phone get stuck on 1x. I think that I might have changed this value by mistake, not sure, question is where can I find out the correct value for my Evo? Phone is flashed to carrrier in Dominican Republic, voice works fine. Carrier will not provide much help. Also if any one can advice of correct data configuration for this phone, what type of credentials I need, just to double check data configuration, as I stated carrier customer service will not provide much help. I am using DFS tool to update PRL, etc. Really appreciate any help on this!!!!

Well one solution would be to swap handsets on your account with your carrier to a phone that you'll be able to read all the required info from. Then read and save. Then write the correct info onto your Evo and switch handsets back. The downside to this is it requires you to have another phone... But it will work.
