I think 3G is borked on my Evo. Pics may help someone explain to me whats going on.

Here are some pictures that can possibly help someone help me. 3G has not connected to the network since I installed the Synergy nightly rom. 4G works and Im able to use data but not 3G and Im unable to make/receive calls and text. Gps works, wifi works. I even noticed today while traveling to work (which is 22 miles from my house) that it connected once but with 1x signal strength then it dropped.

I'd try "restoring" your profile and see if that helps.
If you don't have your MSL, you can get the MSL Reader from the market (or possibly find the APK somewhere and push to your phone since data isn't working).
1. Dial ##3282# from your phone.
2. Choose "Edit Mode"
3. Enter your 6-digit MSL
4. Select "Data Profile"
5. Press your "Menu" button.
6. Select "Restore".
7. It will restore your default data profile and reboot/check for PRL/firmware updates.
8. Success??

Thanks and i tried that method already but will give it another shot..

Something similar happened to me not too long ago and I had to do a factory reset to get it working again. Get you MSL code, and then ##786#. In that menu, hit "menu" and then restore the phone.
Before you do, back-up all your apps and user data with Titanium Backup (or whatever you use) so you can restore your phone back to how it is now. If not, you will lose all your apps and settings.

Thanks will try this method again and let you guys know my results.

So did you ever get this resolved?

Just Update Data profile. I was having the same problem a few days ago and flashed back to VirusROM from CM7 to update the profile.

Data connection keeps dropping

I'm running my Captivate glide on Orange network (device is unlocked).
I rooted it following all the steps shown in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1378082 (BTW, works great thanks).
I kept AT&T rom, but issue happens also with Rogers rom.
This happens only on 3G/3G+ connections.
WiFi works great.
The issue looks quite simple: data connection drops (very) often.
No more email push notifications, ...
Have to go to Settings > Network > Airplane mode : switch it on and then witch it off to get data connection back.
It is not an operator issue. My other phone(s) are using the same and data connection works.
Is this a radio rom issue ? Is there a fix ? (didn't find a thing related to that issue).
Anyone having this issue ?

Depends on how strong your network is, I have experienced this a few times.

I keep getting this now that I have had more experience with it, anyone else experiencing random sharp drops in data speed/connection?

Well, I have 4 out of 5 bars... Signal looks strong enough to me.
If I use the same SIM card in a HTC MyTouch 4G slide => Works great, no data connection drops at all !
Looks like it depends on what programs are running and using the data connection:
- email push - connection last long enough.
- when I'm running Bejive (IM) - connection last a bit less (before the 1st drop).
- when I add Skype & LoudTalks : almost every 5 minutes connection drops.
I also noticed that after a voice phone call, sometimes data connection doesn't (cannot) restart by itself ...
Here is an idea :
Is there a way to tweak Operator connection like it can be done with HTC phones : GSM + CDMA, CDMA Only ?
Because when you switch the phone to CDMA only, it uses different frequencies and allow to keep data connections while talking on the phone.
Didn't find that option in Captivate Glide settings ...

Settings --> Wireless and Network --> Mobile Networks --> Network Mode
Didn't make a difference for me using HSPA only.

I just checked ... I don't have the "Network Mode" option in "Mobile Networks" section.
I have Roaming, allow data connection, APN, ... but not Network mode.
Weird...
I checked the operator info. Nothing out of the ordinary there.
I'm stuck ...and it keeps happening. No solution for now.

Maybe try flashing the Rogers kernel and ROM since that's what I have?

Already did that, but that was a few days ago when looking for the WiFi tethering feature ...
I'll flash it back to Rogers kernel & ROM and test.

Update: Flashed Rogers rom.
Good news is I now have the Network settings back. (AT&T rom is not the right one, for sure !)
Data connection last longer. But the issue is still here.
Still investigating...
Anyone else having this issue ?

the day before yesterday, I went to the copier room in my school and stayed for about 2 hours (too many copying). before i get out, i have no signal (mobile network not available). I need to go out to have signal back or reboot.
It happened again yesterday on the exact same location, I'm going to be there again now.
I believe it might be location wise....in my case at least.

I checked, looks like it is not linked to a specific location. I've been travelling and issue kept occuring.
Once data connection is ok, it usually stays up for 2 to 5 minutes, then drops.
"4G" symbol is still displayed - but no more data connection. Web pages not available in browser, no email sync, no more IM, ...
While data connection is down, Cellphone still works, WiFi as well.
It may be linked to an APN issue ... Or definitely a Radio ROM issue.
I'm running Baseband I927RUXKJ5.
Anyone else having this issue ?

When I got the phone the AT&T rep told me there was a known issue with the phone dropping down to lower data speed. He told me if I experienced it to get a new SIM card. Doesn't sound exactly the same but maybe try that?

[Q] Wireless Tethering interrupted by phone calls

Sprint Gnex currently running AOKP 35 w/ Franco Milestone 3 kernel.
Whenever I am tethering via native or WiFi Tether, incoming phone calls break internet connection. I just came from HTC EVO 4g which had DDTM mode option in menu which prevented this.
I was able to access DDTM mode on Gnex by entering *#*#DATA#*#* and MSL (obtained via a script found elsewhere on this board), but whenever I try to toggle DDTM "on", it immediately reverts to "off".
I have purchased Tasker from Market and am trying to figure out a profile which auto forwards all calls to voicemail during active net connection to prevent interruption but there must be a more elegant/simpler solution.
I have already tried flashing back to stock, rooted ROM, and CM9 ROM with same results, i.e., unable to toggle DDTM on through dialer codes and MSL.

follow up
I found another option in dialer codes which allows me to set as "EVDO only". Will this accomplish uninterrupted tethering?

I know VZW can only handle voice or data at once over 3G, if you are on LTE it can do both voice and data at the same time. I am guessing it is the same for Sprint. Maybe someone else will be able to confirm this.

Um... You can't do simultaneous data and voice over EVDO (3G) on the Sprint Galaxy Nexus. It's not an SVDO device.

it is the same for sprint.
if you are on 3g, you can only do 1 or the other. limitation of EVDO.
if you're on LTE (which is not common for sprint), you can do both as the data is using LTE and not CDMA.

I realize it's a limitation of CDMA; hence reason for OP
However, previously being able to toggle into DDTM mode on my OG EVO alleviated problem while tethering on same CDMA network.
I think I have found workaround for my Gnex: *#*#data#*#<EDIT<MSL<Others/More<HDR/1X Selection<EVDO Only Mode.
Kind of a PIA, but until a more elegant solution arrives, it will work to avoid pesky breaks/interrupts in long DLs.

If you're near a wifi hotspot, wifi will continue to d/l also while talking on phone, as that's a different radio. If you're on the road, then that won't help! Unless you buy a second phone, enable that as a wifi hotspot, connect to phone 2 using phone 1 wifi....jk

I find that when I am tethering on LTE data, my data shuts off when a call comes in.
I would love to find a way to stop this. LTE and Voice should be able to be simultaneous.

A few questions about the GNex - Network, Mail etc.,

Hi Guys,
So, I've been using the GNex for about a month. I moved to this phone from a Moto Atrix and here is what I have noticed and have looked around but didn't see any good answers to these questions I am having. Hopefully I get some answers here.
Device info:
GNex GSM version on ATT.
Running JB 4.1.1 Stock with Trinity Kernel (rooted and bootloader unlocked).
Issue #1: I get really bad reception at work. But, when I leave the building, my phone doesn't automaticaly connect back to the network. Sometimes, if I don't check my phone, it's been like that all night long until the next day when I have tried to make a call and it said "No Network Available" and I have to either reboot or toggle airplane mode to get back on the network. Am I missing something? In my past experience with other devices, they try to automatically connect back to the network when they loose connectivity. Also, if I get in an elevator during a call and the call gets dropped due to network unavailability, it doesn't connect back to the network and I have to toggle airplane mode. Has anyone else had this issue?
Issue#2: This is with the stock mail app. Specifically the search in this mail app. No matter what, it always returns zero results. Has anyone had this issue with the Mail App? If I use the Gmail app, it works fine. That's what I am using now, but am curious as to what I may be missing that make it not return any search results in the stock mail app.
Q3: Speed Dial: How do you set speed dial on the dialer? Is it even supported?
thanks in advance,
vG

it could be to do with your radio, what version is it? baseband version in about phone. im no expert but when i flashed a jellybean rom i had to update my radio afterwards cause my signal was dropping alot. i also had the same problem later on but that was down to my network operator. before i realised it was them i googled my problem and a few forums suggested that my sim card was goosed. so maybe check those three possibilities? i cant help with the other two issues unfortunately but good luck sorting it out!

[Q] Sprint Galaxy Nexus can't connect to 4G?

I have my Galaxy Nexus running CM10 (don't think that would make a difference, but who knows?). I was able to connect to 4g a few weeks ago, but recently I have found that I am unable to connect to 4g. I live Manhattan, KS and Overland Park, KS which are both Sprint 4g markets. I turn mobile data on and select LTE/CDMA and the phone just sits there without any data connection. Sometimes 3g will pop up, but that doesn't happen often. I have updated both my PRL and Profile from Sprint, but that didn't do anything. Any suggestions?

More on this. I re-installed CM10 and 4g was working fine until I connected to the Wifi network I usually use. Once I disconnected from that, I can't get 4g again. Can anybody help?

Probably an issue with the nightlies.. Make a backup, wipe, and flash back to stock?
Rooted and tether enabled stock JB is actually quite nice, FWIW.
