[Q] Update Profile not working

Hey all, this isn't a major issue, but it's something that I'd like to work out. I've been using a custom ROMs on my phone for about 6 months now and I'm currently running the MikFroYo v4.4.
Recently I've been noticing my 4G connection isn't working as well as it used to (trouble connecting, disconnects shortly after connecting, etc) and my 3G is slower than it was 3-4 months ago as well. In the MikFroYo thread it was mentioned that these issues might be helped by doing a profile update in the system settings. So I tried that, and it doesn't work.
It doesn't error out, it doesn't update the profile, it just displays "The network is preparing your services..." nonstop. It did that for almost 20 minutes before I hit "cancel". I thought it might be due to a slow/weak data connection so I connected the phone over wifi and it did it again for 10-15min before I cancelled it.
Any thoughts or recommendations on how to get this to update and hopefully help out my 3G/4G issues?
(A few months ago I could get 6-7 Mbps out of wimax and now I'm getting like 0.7-1 Mbps at most when I can even get a signal; that's how much of a drop I'm seeing.)

Ok, I got it working. I don't know exactly what did it, but I rebooted the phone (had tried that before to no avail), downloaded the new BusyBox from Titanium Backup, and did a Wimax Key Check (all good), then did it again and it went through.
So, I don't know what was causing it, but it's good now.

You can't update your profile over wifi. You have to been on the sprint network. I don't know what causes it but, I had the same problem for a few days here in North Texas. It did update when I got a better connection.

[Q] Can't get wifi to connect

I have flashed to CMod 7 nightly 8 yesterday, to try out Gingerbread, and after several glitches at the start (apparently I had to restart once to get the wifi to work at all), I managed to activate the phone, and started downloading all my apps (thanks for app-brain that kept all my apps listed and ready).
At around noon yesterday, my wifi got disconnected, and it can't seem to get connected again - it just stays stuck on "Obtaining IP Address..." for a long while, before finally giving up and listing my network as "Disabled".
At first, I thought it was something wrong with the wifi in my office, but the same thing happened to me at home in the evening, and keeps on happening to me here now.
I reverted back to factory setting (deleting all my hard-installed apps), hoping it will work again, but no luck. Still can't get connected to the network. Just now I also removed the wireless security of my network completely, and it is still not working.
I switched radios between
2010-12-21 - Radio_12.35a.60.140f_26.04.03.30_M
2011-01-04 - Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_SF (currently on the DHD)
2011-02-25 - Radio_12.28g.60.140f_26.05.05.27_M3
and there was no difference.
I am now thinking maybe I should do a rom manager restore, to see how it works on the old (stock) rom.
Any tips from anyone here?

It's a bug in the rom. Use rc1 that works fine.

Have you updated BusyBox? I recently updated to 1.18.3 and it broke root & WiFi.

Yeah, coming to think of it, I did install busybox just before the trouble started.
Now I am back on stock rom. I must admit that I find the look and feel of the Sense UI much more pleasing than the Cyanogen's... But maybe it's just a question of getting used to it.

[Q] Evo CM7 won't call, won't do data (after several days of working)

I recently rooted my Evo and put CM7 nightly 12 on it. All was well, I even installed the Savaged Zen kernel. Even better. Just yesterday I updated to CM7 RC2 to give it a shot. Today I went to work and had to drive to a remote area where I don't get service, so I put my Evo in airplane mode to save battery life. (this was after having it overheat while charging, could be a hardware issue) At the end of the day I turned the 3G radio back on and nothing... It connects and disconnects to the tower. It will not send data and it will not place phone calls on the 3G connection (WiFi works). I did a restore back to nightly 12 to see if maybe it was a problem with the OS. Nothing. A few hours ago it began functioning again, but after checking it a few minutes ago I have discovered it is back to no connection. (the signal bars bounce between nothing and full, but never shows the X for no signal) Has anyone else had an issue like this? Should I restore back to sense and unroot to take advantage of my warranty? If this has already been posted before please direct me to the right thread.

I'm having the same problem. I installed Cyanogen RC 2 and had no problem since it came out. I went on vacation to a beach, and during my trip I switched it on to airplane mode since I was in a remote location. After turning it back on, I noticed I can't get the Data Connection to work. The 3g bar doesn't even show up, and after messing with the settings trying to fix the problem I managed to do nothing. I tried using a backup I made from a week past, and encountered the same problem. Then I flashed the newest nightly and still no Data whatsoever. Wifi works fine, and 4g is acting weird but I got it to work a few times. Does this have something to do with sprint?

I think it is the same as the 4G 3G hang. I typically get it while tethering and the phone is normaly quite warm.

So I managed to fix the problem. I ended up flashing Koni's Elite Rom

I got an error that said "Error 67 registration failure"
I updated my profile and it was automatically fixed. I'm not aware you can do this on cyanogen stock rom, but I think you can dial a number that will do this for you.
After getting the 3g to work again, I flashed back to the stock cyanogen, and it is still working. So for now im good to go.

I do think is sprint and not the rom because I did a restore to warm z and was still having the same problems. Also my brother's evo was doing the same thing and he doesnt have cm7 on it.

I figured it was something to do with the profile... I restored all the way back to sense and attempted to update profile, but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. I will try that ROM and see if it does anything. Why can't they just make this easy and allow updating of vital software that allows the radios to work on WiFi or from SDcard? This is dumb.

I tried that ROM and nothing works. Not really sure what to do. I might have to restore to Sense and unroot to take it back... I really want to avoid that if at all possible.

Unrooted my phone and getting a free replacement from Sprint. Still unsure of the problem, seems to work randomly.

I also have the same problem. No 3g data, gps, and 4g is acting weird.
I also had the same registration error number 67. My question is, how do you update your profile?

[Q] htc desire won't connect to a network

Hi,
Two days back my htc desire suddenly lost connection to the mobile network. I now get a small cross on top of the signal bars and "no service" written on the notification bar. Sometimes this changes to "sos".
The wifi is working fine. t
The only problem is voice and data over the mobile network.
I tried a lot of things:
reboot
flashed a new radio
complete wipe/ factory reset
flashed a new rom
But to no avail.
A strange thing did occur though, at a mall, my phone suddenly started working for a few minutes and then went back to the same state as before. This same thing happened last night too.
I am unable to understand this and request all of you to help.
current status:
Phone: htc desire amoled
s-on
bb: 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23
miui 17.15

Ring your provider.

S.O.S. Problem

I always get S.O.S, the emergency call thingy!
How to solve this? I tried flashing to CM7 and its fine.
So I assume the problem would be the ROM
Any solution to this? Patches or something?
I would love to continue on using MIUI
Thanks all
Regarding the above problem.. had the same thing... what i did is this..
on dial pad use *#*#4636#*#*
then goto phone information (first one)
scroll down you'll see "set preferred network type"
mine was selected "WCDMA" I changed that to "GSM Only"
Since then no problem of S.O.S has come to me
I am sending it here because I am unable to post in the forum... something to do with minimum of 10 Post.. Hope this helps

Guys thanks for your replies.
I have already done the *#*#4636#*#* bit and it hasn't helped.
Regarding the rom, I was originally on cyanogenmod 7 when this problem started. I re-flashed CM7. Didn't help. Then i flashed miui. the problem remains.
Although I would like to add that over the past two days, at two different locations, I have been able to make one call and recieve one. How this happens, I don't know.
Still trying to figure it out but I just read elsewhere on this forum an exactly similar problem being faced by a few people during the last few days.... so keeping my fingers crossed.
Ah! and one more thing, I have tried sim cards of almost all operators and none work in this phone.

Same problem here aswell,
me too tried every thing,
but non of them helpfull..
Still searching for help

This may seem like a dumb question, but the people experiencing this problem, are you in the same country/region?

A little update in my situation:
I visited another city for an hour yesterday and the phone latched onto vodafone in seconds and worked like a charm but as soon as i got back to base, it was back to its dead state.
This is a really confusing situation because, one moment it seems like its a hardware problem (since none of the operator's sims tend to work in it while in delhi) and then sometimes it seems to be a network problem (as it seems to work just fine in some areas)
Guys, please.... please help. This is so frustrating.

guys i'm still waiting for a reply.... doesn't anyone here have a solution to my problem?

Install cm7, then full wipe and then install freshly your new rom.
I did that way and after that was network connection back.
Sry my bad english!

Hey this worked but only partially. Now the phone does latch on to network at most places except two: my workplace and home.
And in some places it shows full signal strength but calling is not possible.

wifi keeps disconnecting on nougat

Anyone facing this issue
Does anyone know any fix

Yes mines the same, wifi works fine for a short amount of time then disconnects, after it cuts out goto wifi settings and all I see is scanning and no wifi devices. only way I can get wifi working again is a reboot but then I get disconnecting again after short period of time!
EDIT: I would just like to add until I updated to nougat yesterday I've never experienced this issue and I did a master reset straight after installing nougat.

I am having this same problem. Any fix for this?

Same thing here. It happened to me after the first night. I thought maybe something was corrupted after the upgrade, so I did a full factory reset yesterday morning. Everything worked fine until I got up this morning. Looks like something over the course of the night causes this to start.
Things I've tried without success:
- factory reset
- rebooting
- removing and re-adding wifi network
- tested all other devices in the house (no other device is having an issue)
- tried both 2.4 and 5ghz networks (issue is affecting both)
UPDATE: After a few hours, I turned wifi back on yesterday, and it's been working fine since. I made no changes to the phone.

Faced same problem with developer preview
Before the official release of Android 7.0 I installed two Android beta preview, 3 and 5, and had the same issue I uninstalled the previews and had no problems with version 6.1. I hoped that this would be fixed with the official version but It wasn't, Im still facing the same problems with wifi disconnecting.
Edit: When I had the previews the only way that the phone would seem to remain connected was to go into the router options and change the client lease time. I never fully tested this because I uninstalled the previews within a couple of days. I guess I'm going to have to test it this time.

Maybe this thread could help you guys, didn't try, and as it is for nexus 5, do every operation carefully.

Flashed back to 6 as the WiFi issue was unbearable, working perfectly fine again now. I was also getting major battery drain on 7.0.

Hi
I found a strange solution working for me. I had bluetooth disabled, since I have enabled bluetooth today, 5 GHz connection is stable - Pls test it and update. And pls don't ask me, why these two protocols are in any way related...

Didn't work for me.
This problem had disappeared for weeks and then started rearing its head again yesterday although I had made no changes to my phone. For the record, it's happening on both frequencies for me.
Last time, the issue magically disappeared. After it didn't go away over night, I restarted my router this morning, and now it's working fine.
To clarify, I don't think it's router related, though. I have an R7000 that's working perfectly with all other phones and other devices in the house. It's the same router the 5x was connected to before Nougat started causing these issues.

Apparantly 7.1 solves the issue
