No Data Connection rooted evo4g

I've had my Evo rooted for quite a long time now. All of a sudden I have lost my data connection. It happened maybe 3 days after flashing MIUI 1.7.8 I can browse the web just fine, every website loads perfect. Only thing issue with browsing is that embedded flash videos will not load.
The Netflix app, NHL gamecenter, ROM Manager, and all other apps that use data do not work properly. They say there is no data connection and will not work.
I tried flashing back to CM7.1 and have the same problem. Has never done this before. All mobile data settings seem to be ok.
If I go to mobile networks and turn data off and then right back on, data will work for maybe 30 seconds to a minute then not connect anymore.
Anyone ever experience this problem before?

I lost data on my Hero once, I simply called Sprint and told them my situation, leaving out the fact that I was rooted, and they reset my data profile over the air. Had me reset it on the phone, and everything worked perfectly again.
Yea Just call Sprint. They need to reset ur profile.
lost connection
Same problem but I have been on metro pcs for about a year.

WIFI Tether screwed up my 3G??

During a recent power-outage today I needed to access the net on my tablet so I grabbed a wifi tether program from the store and tried to use it on my rooted E4GT. It did not work well so I cancelled the tether. Ever since that my 3G seems very un-reliable.
I tried restarting the phone, powering off then on again - no success.
I am considering re-flashing the whole FI27 onto my phone again but was looking for any other ideas.

WiFi crawling

Search function is down right now, so please excuse me if a similar question has already been asked!
For some unknown reason my WiFi started crawling. My other devices when connected to the same network are getting anywhere from 9 Mbps to 25 Mbps. My OGP is getting .01 Mbps to .04 Mbps (yes, the decimals are in the right place).
I've tried restarting the phone, the network, and all of the devices on the network, but the crawling speeds on the phone still stand.
The phone is running stock right now, and had been running OK up until yesterday...
I'm wondering though if maybe some program I installed yesterday (free app of the day, droid of the day, etc...
) might be the culprit. I installed a few apps from the Play Store yesterday morning, but the slow down didn't show up until later in the evening. If one of them is the cause, would uninstalling it/them typically undo the damage?....
Any thoughts as to what might be going on, or how to fix it? The only thing that comes to my mind is to reset the phone to factory stock. Is there some way to reset the WiFi portion of the phone or OS without having to reset to stock?

WiFi failed to connect. Speed to slow.

So I'm running stock 4.4.2 Rooted, and as of 2 weeks ago, I'm unable to connect to wifi at my gym. The signal strength is strong, yet I try to connect and after awhile of attempting to connect over and over again nothing happens, but sometimes I get an error saying "failed to connect, network to slow" or something along those lines. My wifi works perfect fine at home though. All info I could find just leads to factory reset which won't happen for me. I've deleted that wifi over and over and put the password in again several times, no change. It's only me with this issue though and as I said, friends with the exact same setup can connect perfectly fine. This just happened out of no where one week after working fine.
Well now that I think of it, over a period of two more weeks before the no connection at all issue, it was starting to turn into a crawl for speed but only for me.. Stock everything Rooted, and stock kernel.

.....have the gym reset their router..... cause if you can still connect to other WiFi out there then i think it less of your phone and more of the router at fault here
Well, then why is only my phone effected? People with the same version and Rooted and such don't have this issue

my only other suggestion would be to flash Ktoonez(might have misspelled his username) TW Kernel and Tweaker and to Flash the NDC modem; from personal experience NDC modem gives me better 4g signal....yet it also gives me better WIFI signal as well as connectivity, some will say it doesn't affect WIFI but it did for me so you can try that since you don't want to Factory Data reset it.
Well my phones disconnected anyhow. I can only use wifi really so I keep it in airplane mode with wifi enabled

Wifi slowdowns, come and go. What to do?

Just got a used replacement M8 and Wifi download speeds won't break about 2Mbps most of the time!!! Upload speeds seem unaffected (but they are slow anyways here @ 4Mbps) All my other phones/pcs would run about 32-33Mbps/4 on wireless via my 35Mbps connection, *including my old M8.* Seller told me its never been rooted and is stock.
I noticed if I turn airplane mode on and then off, the wifi download speeds return to normal for a short while, then revert to the <2Mbps downloads. I have tried factory reset of both wifi router and phone. Clearing cache on phone, power settings, NFC/BT on/off, etc, etc, to no avail... I am running Android 6.0 (6.13.631.7)
I'd love to figure this out. This phone is mint that I got and this is the only issue, so would hate to get rid of it due to this.
Thanks if anyone has any ideas...
Anyone?
I could use some ideas.
Not sure if I want to keep the phone if it's gonna slow down so bad on wifi all the time...
I bought the phone on Swappa, and between them not responding what so ever to my concerns and zero replies here, I don't think I'll keep this phone. Don't know what else to do...
