What is it not doing? Basics would be to have your phone forget the network, reboot your router and modem, then have your phone scan for the network and enter your password. Other info needed are have you been able to connect before'? Are you on a custom ROM or stock?
Do you BONSAI?

I think its just sprint service in general.....

What does Sprint service got to do with connecting by wifi to his net?

Stock everything, i pulled the battery many times will that reboot your router and modem, how do i scan for a network? and the sprint guy had had me enter ## numbers and re enter a bunch of numbers, i didnt do a thing and the net just craped out, is this normal or just something else? i can connect with wi fi, and there hasnt been a sprint outage the guy said.
thanks guys for the help, i dont think the epic is broke something with the software or something?

I am talking about rebooting the router and modem on your home PC that you are trying to connect to. On your phone in settings there is a wifi and networks settings. Does it show "connected" to your home network? Or does it say obtaining ip address? This is where you can long press on your network and hit forget. Then press scan for networks. Choose the name of your home network then enter your networks password. Without this you will have no internet.
Do you BONSAI?

Yeah we need a little more info here to help
Sent From My Evo Killer!

This has happened to me....
try a profile update that worked for me 2/3 times that this has happened to me on both my PRE and EPIC and EVO the other way I resolved it was by contacting sprint and for some reason just when they accessed my account magically my data or 3g symbol came back... hope that helps =/
I also have reason to believe this is a sprint service provisioning issue with our phones and the network itself... I've had it happen on all my sprint phones at least once!

Sorry guys I've been working I have no issues connecting to my wifi after u said something I went in 2 the settings and saw me network was off so I though great now its fixed but no. Its still dropping the net whenever. I can b on it and it goes to unavaiable. They said when I swithced from nextel that I would have badass service and even the coverage map on lines shows that I'm in a good area so my net shouldn't b dropping like this, I called sprint and they couldn't do anything I have to bring the phone that it may b a softwsre issue, but 4 having great servicewhy does the phone at best show 2 to 3 bars on the antenna the spring guy said that isn't a exact amount of what I have... sounds like bs 2 me that's the first time I ever heard that, I hope its a software thing because I really like the epic but I realy heavely on my emails and net 4 my job that's why I got a bad ass phone but right now I don't know, maybe I just need 2 switch providers? Nextel has ben great but I not 2 sure about the sprint side or u think this is a minor isue that can easily b fixed and I just needto ride it out? I know phones my old bb did but I still got my emailsand had my net all the time
How do I do a profile update?

[Q] 1x problems

my evo when I flash custom roms will always give me 1x instead of 3g icon... not sure why is there a fix of any kind?

Your probably not clearing everything when you flash the rom. Make sure you wipe everything when flashing a new rom.

Try going into espt. (you need to be on a sense rom) Enter ##3282#. Go to edit mode (you'll need your MSL number). Select 'evdo', and make sure that the preferred mode is set to automatic. I don't remember if it automatically reboots your phone when you commit the changes, but if not, then reboot it manually after you change it. That may help ya out.

Good call, only reason I didn't think this was the reason because most roms don't have the icon change when you lose evdo.

Right, but now that a lot of the Sense roms are incorporating that mod (the mod that shows if your truly on 3g or 1xx), some people are realizing that they aren't getting 3g signal at all. Some may have been on 1x the entire time, but then when they switch to a rom that shows what you're actually connected to, they realtize they're on 1x. That trick works for some people, but not all. I think it'll help out though.

Same 1x problem no matter what i do
Ive had this problem for about 5 months now and it doesnt matter what ROM i switch to or use it the same and going in EPST doesnt fix the problem neither when doing what you just said to do with the epst but when i do change it from AUTOMATIC to HRC it goes back on 3G but the downfall to that is that phone calls and text dont come in to your phone until you make a phone call so can anyone help solve the issue why is this happening? I have a white evo hardwhere 0003 used all kind of roms even stock and same thing and know alot about phones and been messing with them since windows mobile 6.1 HTC TOUCH for sprint soo... And my girls evo is and stays on 3GrevA. her in not rooted and is stock tho while mines is stuck eternally 1xrtt.

you may have facked your radio at some point? I would tinker with different ones till you get the sweet spot.

This. There may not be anything really wrong at all. I mean, it sucks to drop to 1X, but the stock ROM was lying to you.
Now, if you ONLY see 1X all the time, yeah, that's a problem. But an occasional switch over to 1X (particularly if you're in a tough signal area, like the core of an office building) is normal.

I am on mikG Rom I have had 3g before I updated radios got the new stock rom but at home I use a airwave for signal wonder if that messes anything up?

Have you tried one of the new Sense 3 roms? The reason I ask...when you go into 'ABOUT PHONE' in settings these versions give you a network option that others do not. Check to see what it is telling you are receiving 1X or evdo. If it says 1X...you may have the same issue I had...borked 3G. Once I got it replaced..I loaded up the 3.0 again just to check what it now said..and you betcha...evdo was now showing and not 1Xrxx (or whatever it was).
I tried everything as well for about three weeks..you name it..ROMS/RADIOS/STOCK/CUSTOM/ESPT even took it back to fully stock and then rooted again (lost my .76Hboot in doing so, but phone didn't work right anyway... I was grabbing for straws. Luckily it was just under the first year and paid the 35 to have it replaced (no warranty plan). I travel and no matter where I went the speeds were terrible..ya..the 1X/3G/EVDO in the notifications bar is just for looks...but you KNOW when your stuck on 1X...frustrating.
This may not be the case....but

kinda of a simple fix... first of all stock sense roms always show 3g even if you dont have it... if on every rom you flash you keep getting the 1x AND you alreeady tried radios, nv etc upgrades and those dont work, then it is your PRL not PRI... 2 different things... to fix it check out a thread under deveopement ..Deck.... cause there is a fix there, or google prl and pri update evo on google.. you will need msl and be on sense and be able to use espt

Is data connectivity gone when 4g is in "idle" state?

I have been asking this on Sprint forums for a while, I searched here and didn't really see this issue. It's a pretty concerning issue for me and I'm wondering if it's common because I know it would bother everyone.
My first post was basically saying I wasn't receiving push notifications, after doing some testing I posted this.
Copy/Paste from Sprint forums:
As a follow up:
I have noticed that the data doesn't come through the the 4g is idle.(Zzz)
I tested it with two applications:
Whatsapp, have a friend send me a message with 4g active, message came through. I had the same friend send me one with 4g in idle mode and the message does not come through at all, even if I browse the internet and make 4g idle again, the message will only come through after I open whatsapp again.
Beejive and eBuddy messanging apps: I opened my own account and tested from my PC with the same scenarios as before, I get the same results.
It seems my phone is losing a data connection all together when 4g goes into idle, now this can't be right can it?
Looks like the NS has the same issue:
http://community.sprint.com/baw/thread/70874
This can't be right can it? I mean completely shut off my phones data connection when the 4g radio is sleeping? How does this make sense..
Anyone?

Kinda ... I believe it still works in the background for any app that might need internet connectivity. The time out sucks cause is so short but it is done, I believe, for the purpose of saving battery, like if no app is in need of data then it shuts down. Also, there are codes to make this time-out take longer to kick in, somewhere buried in these threads.

Thanks for the reply. Yea I saw some options, but raising the time out would probably kill my battery.
For now keeping on 3g seems to be my best bet..

Usually when a radio goes to sleep there is something called a rx interrupt that will wake it up when there is a packet received. This is based on my limited experience working with radios as an electrical engineering student. I don't know. how the specific wimax radio in this phone works.

Not sure how it works, but in honesty its very frustrating, the fact that it isn't a bigger deal on here makes me think it doesn't happen to all?

I hate to bump this again, but are the views people that don't have this issue at all?
I feel like this is a deal breaker

I get this all the time. When driving, I like to listen to shoutcast stations.
If I lose signal for more than like 10 seconds, the 4G idles and never reconnects unless I either toggle 4g off/on or tap a shoutcast station to wake the 4g back on. The 3G struggles to reconnect to the station usually and times out.
It is pretty irritating. My best friend always teases me for getting an android phone over his iPhone 4S PO$ on AT&T. lol

I'm keeping it on 3g right now, that should give you the same speeds of his 4s. I'll turn on 4g when I know I need it. So far 3g hasn't been slow enough for me to even have to turn it on.
I like this phone a lot and considered returning it but there isn't a phone as powerful so I decided to deal with it for now.
I went to sprint but the tech wasn't there, the counter guy tried to tell me it's the same with any 4g phone but I really don't think so. I think people would get rly pissy if messages didn't come in for hours.
I'm going to see the tech and test it with another 4g phone, if it doesn't happen I'll ask him to open a ticket and MAYBE that'll get something done.

there are a few tweaks that you can do in the epst menu that help out with the 4g connection going dormant. let me see if i can find the thread

I looked into setting the "sleep" time to 300 seconds, haven't done it yet but I'd be worried about it sucking my battery too fast.
I just feel it should work in sleep mode and I want to see what other sprint 4g phones do, if it's only with this phone I want to at least try to get it up to Sprint as a bug(event though most likely nothing will happen.
Someone on El13 said they didn't get this behavior in another thread.. I've tested it on stock EG30 and Ek20

Okay, so I'm not crazy. I thought I noticed this on both my OG Epic and the Touch. Mostly for me it manifests in not getting push notifications while on 4G in idle. That's been my main complaint with it. So I mostly don't use it, although I'm rarely anywhere with 4G anyway, so it's irrelevant.

Yep this is issue.. I'm leaving 4g off now and I'm not really bothered by that so it's not that big of a deal.. I was about to return the phone though because i was missing important messages through push notification.

I have not tried gtalk but I think it would have the same issue.
I have tried and all of them fail with the same issue:
Whatsapp
Gmail app (I don't use Samsungs stock email)
Beejive messenger
ebuddy messenger
let me know what you find.. I just can't believe this isn't a big bug - something tells me it might be Samsung's radios.

I went ahead and changed my idle time to 300... The phone doesn't go to zzz anymore so far so that should let me stay on 4g. That should give me 5 hours of the phone not going to sleep so during a normal day I shouldn't have this issue.. Maybe when I'm sleeping I won't see my notifications I will leave it on for now..
My DL speeds with 4g are like 7-8k so that's MUCh better than 3g for me. Also we'll see about battery drain.

Yes I have this problem. I also have the same issue with leaving WIFI on all the time. Everything is delayed unless you just used the phone.

I don't think I have it on wifi. Will test tonight.

John,
Another example of 'push' is using imap with gmail account. I use both k9 and maildroid using the imap connection method. When a message arrives at the google server it should 'push' it to our phones in a short turn around time frame. I've seen this vary from immediate to 45 minutes on the server end. The usage of 'pop' of course is the 'pull' method when polling is necessary.

300 in IdleSleep is actually 5 minutes, not 5 hours (I'm pretty sure the value is in seconds).
That being said, I haven't seen any push notification issues on 4G on EG30 or EL13. I regularly get Gtalk and Gmail notifications all the time while idle on 4G. The only thing that seems slow on push notification is the built in email client. But I'm not sure if that is a client or Hotmail issue. I wonder if your issue is region specific.

From what I read it is minutes.. But that could all be wrong I guess

Brand New Phone, No Working LTE

'm gonna try and make a long story short. Yesterday I purchased A S3 from ATT..Everything was working fine right out of the box no problems, lte and everything..Well earlier today I rooted my phone and everything seemed to be fine, I even flashed a rom and that seemed to be running fine also, but I noticed when I flashed the rom on the tool bar where it shows what data your running other than Wifi, it said H, don't know what that would be but I know it wasen't lte....So I thought maybe something was wrong with my phone, so I took it to the att store and showed them I wasen't getting 4glte..So they looked on the compyter and everything looked right, then they took it to the back where the service center was and flashed it back to factory....AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW??? It worked...I got 4glte right away..It said it right on the toolbar..I was so happy its working again like it should be...So I get home and root the phone again..everything went fine with the root, well it seemed like it BUT WHAT DO YOU KNOW...YOU GUESSED IT..NO 4gLTE...WHAT is going on here...and this was just off a fresh root no roms or anything...So I'm stuck I don't know what to do or if anyone else has expierienced this or knows a fix...I really want to keep my phone rooted so I can run roms and programs like Titanium Backup
So if anyone knows and can help I'd really appriciate it...thanks for your help and time...
I'm keeping my fingers crossed
As you can see from the picture you can see 4g on the status bar, but check out the speeds...and I'm in a great spot for lte..so something is wrong

Its kind of normal that lte dont work on some roms, you could just stay stock and it will all work, Im not sure why root would kill your lte, how are you rooting?

1st wrong thread, this has nothing to do with development, 2nd if ur getting 4g lte issues then speak to the company u got it from, because not alot of places can support lte atm its like a transition thats happenning 3rd what i can suggest you do is grab a tool like odin, and odin back to stock rom and then use snapdragon tool by mskip its the 2nd or 3rd from this forum up, and go from there and that should help u further on in getting back to normal , and if you're flashing jelly bean roms or what not, you have lte still but it'll show as 4g or what not, which rom have you flashed btw.

You need to check your APN settings and make sure you're using the proper LTE APNs for your carrier and make sure that LTE is available in your area 100%.
Also you need to enable LTE on the mobile connections screen within whatever ROM you flash.

but he's saying he's flashing a rom and losing LTE, but apn most the times stick, thats why i was wondering which rom was it, because then we can let them know to make sure their apn sticks make its easier for anyone else that flashes.

I know first hand wali and his partner in crime have stellar ROMs flash one of those guarantee you won't be disappointed

It could also be that he has lte but the icons says 4G for lte I think it's the case for some roms. Because the phone companies made us believe that hsdpa+ was 4G when in fact it's more like 3.7G more or less. What I'm trying to say is did you do a speed test to make sure?
4G might just be lte after all.

I know when on blackjelly it only shows 4 I believe but the speed test shows lte speeds.

lets blame the companies for skrewing everything up with toggles.
run a speed test and look at more info and see what it shows, also check your apn settings via settings/more settings and mobile network then access point names and then take a screenshot if possible by holding power + home button and post it up, because if u should have LTE service ur apns must be LTE otherwise you will be defaulted to regular apn which might throttle you like whoa well i know our ics doesn't do that but not that i hate anyone's ics, Nun, Ariel and Kyan all have done a good job in their ics's.

I don't know if this helps but go to settings and then about, then status and check network, most likely says UMTS or well it does for me on ALL 4.1.1 rom's. But, go to mobile networks and try to connect to another provider than yours, then when it says it cannot connect, re-connect to your own and I bet you will get HS+. Only problem is, if you toggle on wifi or reboot, you will have to do this all over again to retain the higher network connection.
I have not been able to come up with a solution yet and do not know if it is a 747m problem only or if it effects 747 as well.

[Q] did sprint fu** my phone over?

ok well took my phone to sprint store because i was having a rattling sound in it when u would do like a quick jerk or movement with it...
well they did what ever it was they wanted to i guess and brought it back out to me no more rattle ...
left their and on my way back home I noticed that the background wasnt the same on my lockscreen so i started going through the phone and c they have flashed my phone back to stock...
Ok still no biggie i can just root it and unlock it again well i go to use the play store it says network unavailable..
well i go to network settings and do the usuall checking and making sure roaming and data and all that is on wich it was but the roaming...
I go to see n make sure im still on sprint maybe thats y its no data... whell guess what its not it says chameleon...
whell what the hell is the first thing that comes out my mouth and laughing.. gf says what so funny i said look my phone says im on a chameleon n we both busted out laughing in the store...
well i got home and still no data so i called sprint and we went through the normal trouble shooting and phone restoring procedure..
Those procedires didnt get data to work either so they had me do a ##SCRTN# and after restart they had me do a manual programing, wich still didnt get data to work.
So last thing that they had me do was ##RTN# and once again did manual programming,and of course still no go no data..
After the "advanced tech support guy" came back on the phone he started urgently repeating and emphisizing take the phone the store or where it was i purchased it at.... so monday i gotta call and get a new phone shipped to me since this one is only a week old...
IS THERE ANY WAY TO GET MY PHONE WORKING AGAIN,AND WHAT DID THEY DO TO IT ?

Im not worried since they replacing it but i still would like to know how it happened and is their a way to fix it incase my retardo kicks in and dont pay attention to what ever it is i was doing...
whats shady me, or what?

easy fix...
1. install nova launcher
2. with nova launcher now set as launcher hold on homescreen to create new shortcut.
3. select new short cut > activities.
4. scroll down the list until you see "Update Device"... click update device then look for a "Branding" submenu.
5. Click on "Branding" and you will make a "Branding" shortcut on your Homescreen.
6. Click new "Branding" shortcut and set Branding to "Sprint"
Confirmed working in both ZV9 and ZVB.
From autoprime
Or just lgnpst to zv9 then do a ota to zvb
Oh and on my old galaxy s 2 when sprint was finishing they forgot to plug in the lcd power *sigh*...

Ive went all the way back to zv7 and worked back up to latest. Its no longer saying chameleon as its net work ... it back to sprint and im able to talk n text sms.... still havent figured out the data side of things,any suggestions or input?

Hmm try flashing a rom sometimes the baseband loves to **** me over as well
If that doesnt work hop on irc and ask

Hmm, maybe this has been my problem the whole time. I've had my OG since earlier this year and it has always listed "Chameleon" as the network but I never thought anything about it. My issue though, is even though I am in a high 4G coverage zone, I rarely get 4G. I can force it to connect to 4G (using an app I found) and it will connect with full bars, but it will drop back to 3G in like 5 minutes.
I'll have to try the fix rockh11 posted. Does the phone need to be rooted to run that fix?

Lgnpst I think so unlock the bootloader and root it just to be on the safe side
Nova launcher no need for root i think
prl and profile no.

Try doing prl/profile updates via wifi. Alternatively, just wait. I've seen sprint take 2-3 days before data will come back after a reset. I had one blow up when traveling and support convinced me I would have to take it back once I returned to town. Woke up 2 days later an everything was working fine.
