[Q] Problem with CM7 data and network - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I am using CM7 for a long time and after a reboot or enter in flight mode the gsm data and network need much time to get activated and sometimes I need many reboots to get both activated. When all go right the color of the symbol of gsm network and data is green and when I have troubles to get it activated the color is white. In other situations I don't get gsm signal. This annoying and I can't fix it, please I need some help, I don't know what can I do. I also used my sim card on a SGS and SGS2 both of them with CM7 (both rooted and flashed by me like my Arc) and I don't have problems with data or network. Thanks for your time.

[Q] 2.4 update broke 3g

I flashed 2.3.4 onto my 2.3.3 R800i and now I can no longer get 3g to work for anything other than messaging and phone calls. I've tried everything i could think of in the settings, any clue how I could fix this?
Did you put your apn settings in?

I had a problem with 3G long time ago after being abroad and using Airplane mode and/or data settings. Could not reactivate 3G for some reason and rebooting did not help but I had some on/off widget thing installed at the time and tried one of the 3G or data switches on it and it started working. Hope it helps

Right on man glad you got it worked out I went thru the same stuff when I first got my x10 it was a little frustrating but lesson learned

mine has a glitch where it switches the network it's assigned to by itself. Rogers shows up as two networks, one edge and one 3g/hspa, and I noticed if my reception is bad at a certain location it will sometimes switch to edge only, and not turn back. It's only been doing this after the update to 2.3.4
Edit/update: I figured out you can force the phone to never use edge, if you change it from wcdma preferred/gsm to only wcdma

No signal on GSM/WCDMA

Hello all, firstly i apologise if this has been answered before, i did search but couldn`t really find a definitive answer!
I have a HTC Desire which at the moment has Gingerbread (2.3.3) on. This is the one direct from HTC which i have restored via a nandroid to see if the problem persists. The phone is rooted and s-off (clockwork mod recovery) and i have tried out a few ROM`s but the problem seems to persist.
The problem is with the Network Mode function whereby you have the 3 options, WCDMA only, GSM only or GSM/WCDMA auto. It seems i have to have this option set at GSM only for the phone to function properly. If i set it to Auto it seems that as soon as the bars drop so does the connection and i am unable to make or receive calls
When on GSM only i can access the internet but obviously not 3G so i only get an E above the arrows.
I`m in the UK on Vodafone and my area says it has good coverage for 3G which i can confirm by using other phones.
Does anyone have any ideas on what the problem may be, i like my Desire and would love to be able to use the full potential.
Happy Christmas and New Year to all...
p.s. If you need more info, i`m only to happy to provide it.
What happens when you set network-type to WCDMA only?
Is your radio up-to-date?

What's your problem with WCDMA only? And which do you mean with Exgo? Please write the whole name.
a fix maybe
hi mattchur try this code as if you are making a phone call,*#*#4636#*#*,in there are a list of commands you can change gsm/wcdma,it may help you fella
Thanks for the replies guys, it seems i have made some headway into the issue!
I tried using WCDMA only as suggested by MatDrOiD (thanks for that) but the reception seemed a bit flaky...
Using the *#*#4636#*#* which i knew about (but thanks burty39) iv`e been trying out the different options (had a few issues with GSM/CDSM auto (prl) don`t do this ) it`s seems when i choose the option "WCDMA preferred" and things seem to work fine for now.
I`m getting an H (HSPDA) when connecting which is at least 3G i think and i`m able to make and recieve calls.
The network bars don`t seem to high though (2 or 3 bars), maybe i`m just in a poorish reception area despite what Vodafone say.
certified noob, is the Network app from the Market just a short cut to the above? Could you explain more about the Exgo thing please...
Cheers.
Did you check wether your radio is up-to-date?
Sorry Mat forgot about that, meant to include it in my post (bit to much booze yesterday).
Anyway i`m pretty sure my radio is the latest, details are,
Android Version: 2.3.3
Baseband version: 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23
Kernal version: 2.6.35.10-gf43272
[email protected]nd18-2 #1
Still seems a bit patchy now and then, if i select GSM only (EDGE) my signal strengh is -75dBm 22asu (full bars) and all is fine, if i stick it on WDCMA preffered (HSDPA) i get ~99-107dBm and 2-6asu (with 1 to 3 bars) and can occasionally access the net albeit slowly.
At the moment i`m just staying in GSM only, at least i know it`s working then.
It`s frustrating as i stick it on WCDMA preffered and one minute it`s fine, the next pages time out!
Cheers
No problem. Yes, you use the newest radio.
Any idea how to enter the *#*#4636#*#* mode in an Incredible S? I just get the Customize Quicksettings screen on this?
Please ask in section for HTC Incredible S.

[Q] all of a sudden phone will not find any carriers?

Been running Darkside rom for several weeks now without any issues. Just picked my phone up to check it and it says no service and "searching" but never gets signal. I took the sim out and used it in my other phone without any issues. I have the replacement warranty if I need to swap it but is there anything I could try before I do that and return it to stock? WifI calling does work but with Wifi off, no cellular service. Thanks.
Try wiping data and cache in recovery

Check your apn settings
Sent from the iPhone graveyard.
I had this with my old iPhone. It usually happens when its baseband crashes. For some reason jailbreaking always did that to it.
Just reboot your phone. If it happens very often you might have a bad flash.
It is working again. I think the 4G must have been out in the area because if I selected GSM only it would get edge. Thanks for the replies.

[Q] ace 2 network problems

Hello
I've just bought a new galaxy ace 2 and I am experiencing some problems.
When I'm using only gsm network type (i think, now I'm testing HDSPA), typically, when I'm logged on icq, mobile sometimes loosses signal and displays there is no service. After few seconds is everything OK and network is back at full singal. This can be seen also in battery usage view, when I'm having always yellow line with thin red places.
I'm now using it with mixed mode on HDSPA and there are no problems with network.
The phone is under warranty, so there is no problem, but I dont have much time and first I would try other solution. I tried to flash it with odin to same fw, but no change. I tried to google it but I didnt find any solution. Could you give me advice?
Thanks for answers

Well the "train" issue is due to the train being like a faraday cage, blocking the various microwave signals, the reason you get a signal on a train is because they have amplifiers to retransmit the signal into the train and vice versa.
...what network?

[Q] Problem getting mobile data connectivity on Arc S runnig CM10

I can't access mobile data.. 2G or 3G on my phone since yesterday. Earlier, there used to be occasional signal drops, but toggling mobile data, airplane mode, or rebooting would resume the connection. My APN and account balance etc are OK. Now, voice call and wifi work ok, but elsewise, the signal bars stay greyed out, and 3G, G, H or E indicators never show - it's as if it isn't even attempting to connect to data. :crying: I also had a problem with the toggles on the notification screen not updating... i.e. showing on even though i's turned off as shown in settings menu. I wiped dalvik and cache today... but again, no change.
I tried my sim on another handset and got connectivity, though a very slow connection. This is a peak mobiole usage time here, so bandwidth may be clogged, but no connection altogether?
Any help on how to get back data connectivity would be really appreciated.
Can you please tell me if there is any way to pinpoint if this is a network deficiency or a hardware or software issue? Can the radio malfunction for only mobile data leaving voice and WiFi intact?
I'm running:
Anzu,

Why are you using BB64? For CM10 you should be using BB77 or above.

For ICS, use BB77 and above, anything below will not work.
For JB, use BB85, although BB77 should work fine with it.

Actually, I got back data connectivity once before I could flash BB85.. so most probably network was a factor.
Anyway... I managed to flash BB85, and connection is quite nice, except for the persistent issue of occasional mobile data drops -(toggles not updating) . Thanks!
By toggles not updating, what I mean is If I connect the phone to 2G - and leave it, sometimes the phone will show no data connection and greyed out signal bars, even though data quick toggle is on. If I turn it off, it will not grey out. If I turn on wifi, though, the data toggle finally turns off.. and turning it on after that reconnects 2G. Any idea what causes this?
