Don't resort to flashing radios you can really screw up your 4g.....Did you try factory reseting your phone but back everything up first and see if that works if not try flashing a stock rom or a ruu.

Update Profile/PRL. If that doesn't work, flash a stock RUU and Update Profile/PRL. If that doesn't work do a ##786# reset. That should get you up and running.
If you still have problems post back and I will point you in the right direction to fixing your data profiles.

I also have the same problem using myn rls4, but have net 4.2.1 cfs HAVS more kernal. Out of nowhere the data will just cut out and stop working. I will try some of the suggestions in the thread.

Did any of out suggestions work for you?

well i went back to CM 6.1(newest build) and about 45 minutes ago it happened again while i was at the bar. guess imma go to a non rooted RUU to see what happens

not to be "that" guy but one bump for a hopefully permanent fix.
As much as half of us have a rom flashing addiction. I cannot do this every day lol.

If that doesn't work. Call sprint and tell them your phone is having really slow data and it's going in and out tell them it happened after updating your phone through system update then they will say it's due to software update and they will send you a replacement next day.That is my suggestion because you don't want to screw something up that might be noticeable trying to fix your current evo just get a new one and start over with everything updated. I hope I was helpful

I did this, using the debug menu once. I reset all data and then it wouldn't update my profile so I couldn't access my 3G and the web data was gone. I tried to update my profile/prl and it wouldn't, kept timing out.
Every time I would reboot the handset it would try to update automatically but fail. It turns out the rooted rom I was on, (Fresh EVO) was interfering with the update. I flashed the stock RUU...then the phone attempted the same update profile, and afterwards it was back to normal.
So try going back to a stock rom, and then if it doesn't automatically try to update your profile, go to your settings and do so manually, should do the trick.
Basically do what APH noted in his post...sorry must have skipped your posting.

This same thing happened to me on the Hero. I RUU'd back to Sprint's crap and then called them. They walked me through some things and then told me to take it in. The repair guy did the same thing I did (RUU and then data fix) and it started working. So, if all else fails, RUU and bring it back to the store.

thank goodness i have a long weekend. Guess if the new PRL update doesnt fix this then ill head over.

Cannot connect to 3g

Hey whats up guys...im really not sure what the problem is but maybe some one has experienced with before..
My droid incredible cannot connect to 3g service...i tried installing all different kinds of roms even the latest gingerbread releases but still nothing.
Some times i allows me to connect to 1x but then you see the "3g" on the top but then it instantly disconnects.
Ive so tried 3 different radio from the NIS business sense release...all failed..
Any ideas?!?!?
Or if i just need the stock radio??

Aloha! I'll see if I can help.
1) Do a nandroid backup in recovery.
2) Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache then flash rmk40's gingersense leak: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087077
3) Reboot and skip set up. Turn on 3G and even test it out for a bit. You should have whatever signal you are used to having return.
4) reboot into recovery and wipe cache, then go into advanced and wipe dalvik cache
5) Restore your latest Nandroid backup
Let me know how this works.

How would this fix any 3g issues by flashing a new rom and then returning to you old Rom with a backup? I seem to have an issue changing from 1X to 3g causing me to restart my phone at times to pick up the 3g signal again.

Primarily, the people who noticed this issue were/are folks who try out the various gingersense roms available. I've been a member of XDA since January and haven't noticed users in large numbers have issues with 3G until these roms came out. Whether it's due to there not being an official base or what, idk but many users have had these issues with 3G since the May unofficial gingersense leaks:
1) 3G being present and fully functional then disappearing from the notification bar altogether even while still being enabled in Settings
2) 3G signal dropping down to 1x and not displaying again until you perform a reboot.
I have experienced this issue and know this resolved it. This rom as well as Incubus26jc or JoelZ's stock OTA gingersense leak, for whatever reason, are a solution to resolve the 3g drop issue not the only solution. Incubus26jc, JoelZ, and Nils each have recommended and note this is a fix. My (non-fact and own) answer to you would be I believe since these three roms are the unaltered and "(un)official gingerbread Sense" files, they recorrect the 3G signal that is going awry.
Try it and let me know how this works. You don't stand to lose anything except a few minutes haha

This solution fixed my problem.

Dang it actually worked. Wish i had done this a while back. Thanks for the simple fix.

Not a problem, I'm just thankful there's a fix.

Accidentally worked for me too
I had the same problem on CM7. Flashing back to my stock 2.2 Android backup fixed the problem. Flashing back to CM7 and OMGB caused the problem to return. I am on the leaked ota now, I have flashed the gingerbread radio, and I am having no 3g issues. I wish that I had found this thread earlier.

Had this exact issue with synergy rls1 and was also told to flash the rom above to fix it. It worked for awile but then 3g issues would return again, even on non sense 3 roms and even on my old virtuous nandroid. If just flashing the above rom works for you and permanetly fixes it thats cool, but if your like me the only fix is to revert back to compleet stock and i mean compleet stock rom radio recovery boot img everything the only thing not stock would be you still want to have s-off as a matter of fact make sure to check you are s-off before going stock. Once stock you need to do a factory reset from the settings menu. What this does is it compleetley wipes your phone back to stock including wiping vzw programing, wich is the key to fixing 3g. Once your phone reboots from the factory reset you will be prompted to dial *228 option 1 to reprogram your phone. Once reprogramed your 3g will be fixed. From there flash clock work or amon ra recovery and then restore your favorite nandroid or install a new rom. I personaly would stay away from sense 3 roms as after fixing mine with the above steps i not thinking installed another sense 3 rom and broke 3g again making me fix it all over again. I have stayed away from sense 3 and havent had any problems since. Note if you have a compleete stock nandroid you can just flash that then flash stock recovery and radio do the factory reset .....

Well this is why Android is all about choice.

Well, I tried to install rmk's rom and that didn't work. I also tried to go back to stock with the RUU and the PB31IMG.zip file to do a factory reset, but that didn't work either. Are there any other suggestions that I can try?

If an ruu and a factory reset with new programing didn't fix your 3g issue its possibly hardware related. Can you still connect at 1x speed?

No, I called Big Red and they're sending out a replacement phone. I'm one of them weird people that don't use their phone as a phone too much, but I realized that I couldn't make or receive phone calls or texts either. We got that issue fixed, but they couldn't get the data working.
I guess the world of root is gone for me since it will probably come with Gingerbread on it already. Oh well, I'm probably going to buy a new phone in December anyway, so I'll have a new Dinc to put away in the drawer.

Looks like they are sending me a Rezound...JK. Actually, it looks like they are sending me an OG Incredible. I'll know more tomorrow and will let you know.
Thanks for the link to the root method. I have been studying it and I have all the files downloaded just waiting.
Edit: I did get an OG Incredible, but it came with Froyo on it. I should be good to go as far as rooting it goes. I think that I have an SLCD model though which sucks.

[Q] Help with MIUI

Ok so i keep getting force closes when i receive a call and try to answer it. Iv wiped everything restored it back to last ROM then reflashed it and this didnt fix it? Anyone plz help!

1.12.9 was the last stable one, re-flash that. You should only have to wipe cache/dalvik, that's all I did when I restored.
In case you need it...
http://roms.miui.us/supersonic/MIUI.us_supersonic_1.12.9_Eng_Deo_ZipA_Signed_naerok.zip

Thats why I had to switch from MIUI It was working fine at first but all the sudden FC's all the time and if I flash the latest I still get those issues :/ I think it has to do with the new UI they are adding, and you need to make sure you are using radios that are compatible with MIUI itself. and you might have even got a bad download link so try another time wipe and flash and see what happends let us know!

There were CDMA issues after 1.12.9, they're resolved but I doubt we'll see updates until MIUI ICS.

The best one I had was Cm7 very stable and fast rom.

Guys, this issue with MIUI builds 1.12.23 and 1.12.30 are VERY well known and have been talked about over and over. There are links to older and newer builds in the MIUI thread in the Dev section AND on MIUI.us.....
Jeez. a little searching won't kill you, ya know....

Cm7 didn't work well at all for me. Apps would force close left, and right. Swagged out rom worked pretty well for me. MIUI is working well but force closes on incoming calls. Trying to decide what to try next.

Holy mother of God, even in this thread it's mentioned that the newest MIUI build on the d/l page is broken and you have to use 1.12.9 or 2.1.3, both of which are posted over and over in the MIUI thread in the dev section AND on MIUI.us

if your phone.apk doesn't have permissions to run that will happen.

[Q] Phone deactivated?

I was running latest paranoid android and I wiped cache/dalvic cache after flashing Cerberus in recovery and when the phone booted up it was asking me to Activate (sprint service) my phone. I've never seen this with flashing roms and was wondering if this is a known issue with flashing roms on the S3 or something that can randomly occur from time to time.
Anyone have experience with this before? I had been running Paranoid Android for less than 24 hours but initially didn't have any problems whatsoever.

Itll do that sometimes depending on the rom. Usually does it after a factory reset and installing a cm based rom. Its just asking you to add your google account... you should be fine

This didn't have anything to do with my Google account. I guess I should have been more specific, I mean that my phone is deactivated on Sprint's network as in I can't make phone calls and all the info is missing in about phone. Phone number, PRL and such. I am flashing back to stock right now and hope this fixes it. Will probably give paranoid another go but this doesn't sound like a common issue because I haven't been able to find anything by searching.

When you get back to stock it'll probably reactivate itself. If not (although you can do this regardless just in case), ##72786# in the dialer should set you straight. If I'm not mistaken the screen you're referring to should be gone when you boot stock regardless. Its a bug. Doesn't work for a sprint phone but still buried in the rom

Ahhh... could try manually flashing your modem after the install too

Soon as I flashed the stock rom it tried to activate and initially failed and prompted me to reboot. Second attempt it was successful and then I immediately flashed back to PA and it is working. Going to give it another shot and keep the stock rom on my sd card this time in case I get stuck in a pinch.

I jumped the gun, phone activated fine but signal drops in and out randomly and will not connect to 3g. Just reflashed to stock again and everything seemed fine but signal was still back in and out. Checked under status and PRL read "0" tried updating to no avail so did the dialer code and it did the activation and all is right in the world again, or at least for the moment.
Just trying to figure out why when I flash Paranoid all my settings just disappear
*edit*
Just flashed back to PA this third time after fully making sure that the phone was working and had 3G data and all was right with the world (my phone). Will update if it goes South again but as of right now the phone is behaving properly. Maybe it just wasn't working right the first time and I didn't notice since I was on wifi. Only thing that keeps me from thinking that is I didn't get the Activation message until 12 hours or so after I had flashed and had been using the phone. /shrug

I still think flashing a modem in recovery after installing PA would yield a poisitve result

[Q] What is wrong with my Gnex?

Hey the Problem is the following:
3-5 random reboots every day
restarts during every phonecall after 1-3 Minutes
freezes when in standby, cant turn back on -> need to take battery out
often slow, especially when switching apps. or when typing
I have tried stock 4.3, CM10.2 recently and before that CM10.1 for a while.
I already send it in but they only said my battery is broken.
Is it possible that all my problems come from this?
I rather think my flash memory is broken? What you think?

Since yesterday I am facing the same problems you are describing. At first I thought it was a bad flash or something like that. Clean installed various 4.3 costum roms and it's always the same.
Right now I will look deeper into it since the phone is unusable in that condition.
If I find a solution I will comment.
Best regards
Edit: Okay, works again flawlessly. I simply flashed an nightly from carbon-rom and the lags were gone. Hope it helps. What exactly caused the lag I don't know. For now I am staying on 4.2.2 Carbon as it is my favourite rom anyway and I will wait till there are stable 4.3 from carbon.

Are you sure it's the phone and not an app?

Not pretty sure, but it still occured after countless factory resets, wipe cache, wipe dalvic cache and wipe system via TWRP.

Have you tried a clean install without installing apps to see if you get a reboot to eliminate an app as a possible cause?

Yes I did. I only flashed for example newest PA and their PA Gapps.
So far I resolved it by "downgrading" to a 4.2.2 nightly from carbon. The lags are completly gone. I will stay and wait till carbon has stable 4.3.

why dont people try stock when they are having problems? going from 1 custom rom to the next does not prove it is the phone.
please fastboot flash the stock rom and do not restore any apps/data other than say your google acct

Already did that.

I am having the same/similar problems with my GNex too. Specifically bullets [1-3] from the original post. I am running unmodified yakjuux and have tried with just my google account with no other apps and the same problem exists.
Mine makes a noticeable "click" sound with a vibration followed by a reboot.
It usually happens during calls and after it boots the phone call log shows no record of the incoming/outgoing call that just happened. Its like a blue screen of death for android!
I have sent the phone back to Samsung's warranty service 4 separate times and each time they reported no trouble found in the completion report. They just factory reset or put an older version of jelly bean back on the phone and send it back to me with some notes of PRL updates and other nonsense to make it seem like they did something to fix it.
Does anyone have any suggestions (logs, adb, etc) how I can help prove to Samsung/service absolute that the phone is a lemon (other than trying to video tape the phone hoping it reboots - because that is the last resort)?
I already escalated to executive customer service and they refused an exchange because the completion reports show no trouble found :crying:
Thx!

well... I also have this problem.
First happened when I flash Cm10.2 nightly (don't remember which one).
Then I flash PA, or whatever... Looks like the random reboot relating to notifications? It's usually happened when whatsapp notification coming in, but not always.
But a few weeks ago I flashed stock ROM rooted (via TWRP, not fastboot).
The problems solved. No random reboots anymore. Then today I tried latest CM10.2, and it happened again... Wonder why... Looks like it's a very rare problems.
Interesting to see someone having the same problem...
Now I want to flash stock ROM via fastboot to check if it'll fix.
Btw, I can flash directly to CM 10.2 from 10.1, can't I? Or I should flash 4.3 via fastboot first?

I believe CM offers an upgrade option somewhere in the system settings. Unless you want to wipe your phone and flash directly to 10.2 in which case I do not think you need to flash stock 4.3 first. Maybe just do a reset within 10.1 before you flash CM10.2 via whatever recovery (clockwork etc) you are using but even that may be unnecessary.
My 1 year warranty expires this month so if I can't manage to get something out of Samsung I am going to play around with flashing stock 4.3 as you suggested. I have tried converting yakjuux to yakju in the past but still saw the problem then which made me revert back to yakjuux so I could send the phone back for service).
