Hey guys, I'm using the Galaxy S3 and my current carrier is Rogers. I've always been on 4G in the area that I'm in, and with the countless roms I've installed I've never come across any problems. Today I was trying out some new roms, but when I flashed them, I noticed that it swapped from 4G to E(aka Edge). Even if I flash back to my nandroid backup or even a fresh install if the previous rom I was using, I'm still stuck on Edge. Now even though it says I'm connected to Edge, never mind reduced speed, my internet just doesn't even work at all. For some reason even if I'm connected to wi-fi, no matter what I do it says there's no connection. I've read about flashing modems, which I have tried and it seems I'm doing it wrong? I put it on to my sd, boot in to recovery and flash it, but whenever I do I just go in to an endless boot loop. I've spent the past six hours pulling out my hair and trying to get this fixed but no solution yet, so now I've put my hope in to you guys! Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
P.S. I'm sorry if I can't reply back right away, I'm currently doing night shifts at work and even though it's 9:45am here, it's technically my bed time, so I will get back to you as soon as I can!
Some extra information if it may help - The rom I was using that worked properly was Triune 2, I've played around with a few roms since, but the one that originally swapped my 4g to Edge was Mark of the Dragon 3.0.
I can think of two possibilities:
1) Some ROMs will reset your phone's internal network settings to only use specific types of networks (e.g. when I first got my phone, the CM10 build I flashed at the time disabled LTE). You can check this by dialing *#*#4636#*#*, going into "Phone information", and scrolling down to "Set preferred network type"; you'll want one of the LTE settings.
2) Reportedly, your phone's IMEI will sometimes be erased during a ROM update (check this in the Settings -> About phone -> Status menu, or in the same "Phone information" menu as above). Check here if that happened.
Hey, I gave number 1 a shot and everything was fine, so I took a look at option 2 and my IMEI isn't gone, but it's showing "0". I searched online and it seems like "0" means it's been deleted, so I'm about to give it a go and see if I can get it up and running. Anyways, thanks for the reply! I'll post and update on how everything works out.
*UPDATE* Alright, problem fixed! I'm back at 4G, everything is running smooth and fast! Took a little bit but everything is working fine, and now I know how to fix this problem if it should arise again, thanks again for the help, I appreciate it!
Hey, I'm back again. Well, I thought the problem was fixed, I was back on 4G all day until a little after I started work at around 10:30pm when my network swapped back to Edge and it's been there since(now 6:57am). My IMEI is still intact as well. I've tried flashing back to stock with odin and injecting the file to see what happens but no luck. Unfortunately I haven't reached the 10 post marker which means I can't ask for help on that part of the forum yet, so here I am in your hands once again, any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated!

Out of curiosity, have you checked the "set preferred network type" setting again?
I've also heard recently that there may be some problems with Rogers APNs in non-standard ROMs, so it might be worth checking your APN settings.
Or, it could be an LTE network outage, unlikely as that seems...
Yes I have and everything is fine. However, I was looking around at a few things some other people have done, not with the exact problem I have, but similar, I tried something out and it worked. Dial *#197328640#>UMTS>DEBUG SCREEN>PHONE CONTROL>NETWORK CONTROL>BAND SELECTION>LTE BAND PREFERENCE>LTE ALL, let it sit there for about 30 seconds and then reset the phone. Do it again, go in to BAND SELECTION and then choose AUTOMATIC, wait 30 seconds and reboot your phone again. I'm back to 4g and actually, it seems faster than when I originally had 4G, but I think I'm just used to how slow Edge is now . Although the other fix got me back to 4G as well, but then it swapped back to Edge so I'll wait for at least 24 hours before I can confirm it completely fixed. Once again thanks for the response! Most helpful forums I've been on!
It hasn't been 24 hours but I thought I'd report back while I'm on my break. I'm still at 4G so things seems to be going well, hopefully it won't go back as it seems like it will stay at 4G. So, unless I'm having troubles again, rather than waiting the 24 hours and posting an update, think of it as a good thing that I don't report anything(or at least I will, since it's my phone ) Thanks again for the help, I appreciate it!

I just switched to Fido (uses the same towers as Rogers) and this advice is what got my LTE working.

Thanks do much for this, I had the exact same problem after flashing MiuiAndroid and Wicked Sensations. Don't know which one effed it up but it was definitely one of those two. Also, I Don't think it is a placebo effect on the speed increase, cause mine is blazing fast after implementing this fix. You should maybe re-title the thread so others in this situation can find this fix, good find and thanks again!
Just want to confirm that this particular code can only be entered from a stock dialer? I I tried entering it from cm10's dialer and it doesn't do anything.

2 things that i can think of...
1)Make sure you have the LTE option selected in your Mobile Networks.
2)Take a look at your APN settings for you carrier. Flashing roms sometimes erases these settings.
That's where i would look first...
Cheers

Please let me know if you fix this. I'm having the same problem, and playing with LTE band selection doesn't work. When I force the band selection, the phone won't even go into service. The same thing happens with WCDMA.
Apparently, the nvbackup stores more than the IMEI. Even when you replace the IMEI, nobody seems to get data back. Unless, of course, you had a backup. Which, unfortunately, I was not smart enough to do....
Hey guys, I have the exact same issue as this:
-I flashed CM10.2 from a CM10.1 nightly which wiped my IMEI. I injected the IMEI using NV-items reader/writer.
-Reloaded stock ICS rom, IMEI returned but couldn't get up from EDGE
-Tried using the peoplesarmy's removed IMEI restore tool, didn't do anything
The phone still works, only its on EDGE all the time.
Literally the only solution for me was using my warranty and getting a new phone.
REPEAT: BACKUP YOUR **** OR YOU GOTTA GET A NEW PHONE!

I have the same issue, and this is one of the only posts about it. Have you found a way to fix it? I'm at a point where I'm about to just sell this. I can't get anything done. Do you by chance have T-Mobile?
Same issue. T-Mobile here. Doesn't disturb me enough to sell the phone, haven't had the issue since going to a custom ROM. I'm sure it'll be fixed with OTA's or whatever.
Hello
i have the same problem
i am on VIPNET Croatia
is some fix coming soon
it is very annoying
Really nice to know I'm not the only one. But my god, it's getting worse as time goes on. I'm at the point where I can't even get data unless I reboot the phone 5-6 times, and only for a few seconds. I am completely out of ideas.

please can you tell me witch coustom rom did you put in htc M8
and solve the data issue
i am going crazy with this phone
and i want to put same coustom rom like you
to get problem fix
please help
I have been using my m8 since the day I got it back in early April and have never experienced that issue. I am also on tmo but have the dev edition with stock rom but I live in the city so I always get a strong and good signal.
Possible solution
My M8 worked great for a month when about a week ago I've started having serious issues with the HSPA data.
After working great for a few minutes the data stopped working.
The H icon showed that traffic was sent from the phone but no traffic received by the phone.
Sometimes the data connection was restored by itself and sometimes I has to toggle the data connection off/on to have it restored.
It both cases the data connection failed again after several minutes.
All the diagnostics app showen that there was hspa connection.
After trying almost anything I could think of I found out what causes my problem:
It's the F**** NFC!!!
I've forgot that a week ago I've disabled the NFC thinking this will save battery life (though the battery life is great).
Turning the NFC on (followed by a power-down/power up cycle) solved all the data connection problem.
I've verified several times that NFC disable is indeed the cause of my problem.
Hope this helps others on this thread.
Hey everyone, I can't seem to recieve/send text messages and I cannot place calls (says EMERGENCY ONLY)
I am on the T-Mobile network and have done nothing to my phone that could've cause this. I still have signal though.
I tried:
-Flashing 10c and 10m modem
-Reboot
-Turn on Airplane mode and turn it back off
-Took out sim card, put it back in (while phone is off)
and nothing worked. I also tried put my sim card in my Galaxy S3 to see if I get data and can place calls, and everything on the Galaxy S3 works fine! But not on my G3
Here is a picture that shows my network status. I also still have my IMEI, it isn't lost. So what could've cause this? And what can I do? :crying:
I'm in Austin, TX if that matters.
Thank you!
Edit: Fixed my problem! Callled T-mobile and they removed an accidental block on my phone (weird...).

This crap happened to me yesterday too!! I think I ended up disabling mobile data, changing the Network Mode to another setting like WCDMA ONLY for a minute… once I put Network Mode back to the GSM/WCDMA//LTE only and turned mobile data back on it was fine. It made NO SENSE though!! How can you have service and full signal, but only be able to call 911!?!? Another BS T-Mobile glitch! I'm SERIOUSLY going back to Verizon this weekend I think. No wonder T-Mobile is cheaper and Verizon is more expensive. Why do I ALWAYS forget that YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!!

I also disabled most of my xposed modules too. Not sure if that did the trick or not. I did several things. I'll let u know if I can remember any other details to how I fixed it. Good luck bud.
Update: Restoring an early nandroid backup DID NOT fix my issue
I fixed my problem! I called T-mobile and they said someone filed an insurance claim on my account! Apparently it was a glitch in their system. I'm actually shocked that something like that could have happened. That's really sad. Oh well, my problem got fixed! Thanks for your help!

I hope you talked your way into a discounted month or something similar because that's [email protected]#$% up!
Currently even if disconnected at all - it will force a reboot if it the SIM isn't detected? I have xposed framework installed but I can't find a module which would do what I am describing.
Is there a way to disable the phone from restarting after it recognizes that the sim card had been disconnected?
Like a way for it to ignore that the SIM was disconnected or anything to do with that warning/force reboot message.
BTW what is up with the captchas? seriously? Has someone spammed the forum a whole bunch cause I swear every time I needed to enter one it took me like twenty times before it would verify! Indeed the hardest captchas I've ever tried to read!
Thanks for any help!
That's not normal behavior at all. First I would try to disable xposed, could be a module doing this. If not, then reflash stock firmware or clean flash your current rom
My phone also randomly loses detection of the simcard which obviously has not been removed because I doubt you can get it out with the battery and cover in the way, but when I was trying different roms, (sorry I don't remember which one off the top of my head, I think it may have been a rom by The Sickness or possibly Jamison904) one of them didn't care that my phone didn't detect my simcard, it obviously didn't make/receive calls, texts, or data while in this state till I reset the phone and the simcard was detected but I just wanted to let you know it is indeed possible.

Normal behaviour will not reboot it, I've seen that problem with a friend's phone and it never forced a reboot. That's why I suggested to disable xposed, reflash stock firmware, reflash rom, or flash another like you said
I assumed it was stock firmware that forced reboot when the sim was no longer detected, NOT an xposed module. I was wondering if there was an xposed module which could modify that behavior. Jesus can I donate money to get rid of the recaptcha?

Nope it doesn't do that, so it's unlikely that such a module exists. This is the first time I am reading about this behavior to be honest. I just use tapatalk so no captcha

I totally figured it was... it did NOT seem like the kinda message xposed would force on you....
Unless you meant that it could xposed causing a hiccup in the loop, but that's still ambiguous.
I doubt it's xposed as my phone was resetting constantly, got a new SIM and I've seen it only do it once since I put it in a week+ ago. Might try that first?
Edit:
Man this ****ing captcha is stupid. For a coder forum why should I have to enter it again after I hit preview post?!?!! I'm trying to write better, seriously anyone know any robots who spam and preview their posts first? Now I'm just gonna submit and edit the stuff which doesn't require a captcha to be entered..... which is REALLY dumb that I can do that cause spammers could just spam a bunch of regular posts then edit them en masse.
I still don't think it's stock problem, but try this, guys
I just came across a thread I remember reading about a while back and thought I'd share what their solution was.
Solution is below:
"I discovered there was an issue with the setting in the OS (Settings, More Networks, Mobile Networks, Network Mode) and the Service Mode settings (Phone dialer, *#2263#). *Service mode was initially set to Automatic and under the band preferences I had some other non standard settings. *I went thru and verified all the band settings were set to "all" and selected option 6 (LTE/WCDMA Mode) versus option 1 (Automatic). *I have not seen an error in over a week."

Hmph, that's crazy that is what caused the problem. I'll try it if it happens again and see if that works but changing the sim card seeems to have worked.
It was confusing because they mentioned all the button presses when you can get to the menu from what they said.

Yeah replacing sim should always be one of the first things to try in this situation. My friend has the same problem and turned out it was the sim card they were using was a cut one. This phone is not friendly with those

A few weeks after rooting with cf-autoroot I started getting a notification that my phones sim card wasn't being detected, and it prompts me to reboot. Running stock root with twrp recovery. If i dont reboot it just stays in the notification bar. If i do reboot it goes away for the time being. I still have service and phone still works as far as i can tell but something must be wrong. Some days it will happen 5 times sometimes it wont happen for a week but lately its happening a lot. Anyone having the same problem? Or does anyone know of a fix? Any help would be appreciated i haven't been able to find much on it.

Update to the newest version of galaxy tools it reduces significantly. You can find it in the themed roms section in the Note 4 forum. When I updated I had almost no lost sim card errors. Now when I updated to lollipop I have no Sim Card errors but I do miss using exposed.

Galaxy Tools does have settings for the Sim Card you know. All I know that when I updated my Galaxy tools to the latest 3.0.8 version my problems went away. I am did not make the program so I am not going to tell you something I know nothing about. Just give it a try and see if it works what do you have to lose?
It's been happening to me the past couple days randomly. Just out of nowhere ever since the first time. Never did this before a couple days ago since I had the phone from launch day. Been on Xnote rc2 with AEL 7.2 kernel.
Edit: I just updated to newest galaxy tools, I'll report back on a day or 2. Strange though that it could be that because nothing has changed at all on my phone in weeks, and for this to just start out of nowhere.
Seems fine so far, updated galaxy tools to newest, and pressed unlocked SIM, whatever that does. I'll report back again if I get the SIM notification
Did you guys try new sim cards?

I am glad you had an open mind unlike some closed minded people. Sometimes you just have to experiment and find out what you added to fix your problems. Galaxy tool does unlock the Sim Card for international travel and when I updated my updated my phone to the latest 4.4.4 ROM I started having problems. So figured maybe it might have been the Galaxy tools. So I tried updating it and I have not had any no Sim card problems for almost a month now.
settings/More Networks/Mobile Networks......set Network Mode to Automatic......this is what stopped mine from doing that sim card error over and over

Tried this. Thought it might have worked but only made it about 1 day before the error reappeared.
Edit: i have also gotten a new sim and tried galaxy tools (though I'm not exactly sure what settings i was supposed to mess with). Still get the error.
My Fix
Same problem with the sim card. I'm not rooted and have not used galaxy tools. I opened up the back and re-seated the SIM card (took it all the way out and put in back in) and for the heck of it the SD as well. I haven't seen the problem yet (going on 2 weeks).
