Are you rooted? If you are and have a custom recovery, just head over to the dev section and try flashing a few different modems to see which works best.
Remember, after you flash a new modem, you have to go into your system settings and update PRL and profile, then reboot. Try them all and see which works best. You can see which one you are currently on in settings>about phone> baseband version. Its the last 4 digits.
Edit: here's a link to the modems

Anything after EL29 fixes LoS so I recommend anything below that. Im on FC07 and it is perfect. Hope this helps!

Just flashing is fine. You literally just flash, boot, update, reboot. That's it. Although I have this slight disorder in which I wipe before every little flash, I don't think it's necessary. As always though, be sure to backup before anything.

Did you wipe data 3x?
If so and it still doesn't work, odin back to eb13 and flash Rom then odin the Ec05 modem back.
May work for you?
Yeah I wiped 3x. I have no problem installing other roms besides this 1. I odined & everything. Even redownloaded 2 see if it was a bad download but its still the same. The EC05 modem I got from the OTA update

Odin back to EB13 and try flashing the rom. Then odin the EC05 tar file and see if that fixes it for you. I'm assuming that you are rooted and converted to EXT4? Probably are but I just thought I'd ask to be sure.
I am no expert by any means and I'm only telling you info I have gathered through lots of research and trial and error when I first started my journey to the promised land.
I tried using the tar file 4 EC05 4 odin & it says failed. That's why I did the OTA update cause I didn't know the actual update was EC05. Do now I really don't know wat 2 u. It frustrates me cause I flash shout of roms, go from modem 2 modem & like I don't knew anymore

Cool, same thing happened to me,last night at 6 am. I was reading, and flashing, and Odin'ing, and re rerooting. I thought it was time to get the OTA to froyo. So I Flashed ACS syndicate EXT 4 Rom. I also got the Stuck Vibrating sasung logo. I booted into clockwork recovery after I had this problem, once I saw it working I was calm. Then I wiped data and cache once... 3 times is the normal ammount though according to professionals. I then reinsalled ACS syndicate Rom. This time is stayed on CWM recovery after it finished and asked me what I wanted to do. Reboot, or wipe, or all those options on the CWM main screen. So then I chose to reboot. And it started up perfect. ACS rom is so fast, so smooth, so slick. I love it. And I love the Epic on 2.2. Apps to SD AND flash player... my phone is now good, andi enjoy bing on it. Battery life is average. But I haven't calibrated properly. Best of luck hope that helps you and others. When I read your post I was like Oh snap tha just happened to me! LOL hours later I'm rooted and customi;ng the **** out of my epic. XDA premium APP rules all!

Now since data is working for you. But you're not comfortable since you flashed the Telus radio. Flash the Modded UVLE1 Radio (T-Mobile Radio) from TDJs thread(Darkside Evolution) here. He removed the RILs from that radio.

I've tried both the LE and LC radios. No luck with either. Definitely not comfortable with a Telus radio though you got that right.
EDIT: Got T-Mo LC8 modified radio to work (RILs removed). What I did was just booted into recovery and didn't wipe anything. Then just simply flashed the LC8 radio zip file and rebooted and had data. So for anyone having data trouble and you are currently running CM9 with Telus radio:
Boot into recovery
Don't wipe ANYTHING
Flash the T-Mo radio and reboot
That's all I did and data is working now. I did not test the LE radio just T-Mo LC. Hope this helps people. Please post the results you guys get from trying this.

Trying to figure out how to go from jb 4.1.1 jro03 to ics fi27. it's not the newest jb leak that just came out. the one from around a month or 2 ago. says my baseband version is ff18. if that means anything.
i'm having data connections in my home town and have to call sprint. when they tell me to dial ##*****# it wont do nothing. when i try to do system updates it calls sprint customer service and nothing happens. so i need to put it back to ics so i can get my data issue fixed. just wanna have the latest version of ics rooted. dont care of factory reset. i have everything backed up
they will wanna disconnect me from the network to fix the issue. they just did it to my wifes e4gt and it worked. i am in north dallas and they are upgrading the towers (data upgrades). i haven't had decent connection since friday when they started.

let me get this right before i start.
choose the fi27 rooted option, rom no data, rooted? can i preserve my data going from jb to ics? sorry still a newbie at this.
No if you're downgrading from jb to ics you need to wipe user data. Oh and baseband is your modem btw so you're running ff18 modem it has no connection to what rom you run
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
It is best to wipe data when downgrading. You can however use titanium backup to make a backup of your user apps, then after wiping and installing FI27 you can then restore your apps and data. I've had no issues doing that. It just doesn't work if you try to restore a JB specific app.

check /system/lib and delete libsec-40.so
check build prop and make sure epic rill is "#"ed out and crespo ril is in.
i am assuming you want crespo 4g modem. its not likely you will have to odin.
I've done clean installs more than once and odin with victory pit and d700-fco9 tar which always did the trick before. None of that is working. Although I still get wifi.

Clean installs won't help. The only way you can get out of it is by clearing the NvRam. Download the respective modem.bin file of the current stock Rom you are on, b. Flash it using old Odin1.8* with Phone EFS clear and auto reboot ticked. Update your PRL and Nam if you have a backup. That should get your phone working.

After dealing with this same issue and the nexus patch (which I stopped using for better compatibility), just ODIN the FC09 modem.bin. It can be found among the sticky threads.

Yep I did that. I odin and cleared EFS. (As long as I'm on stock, Im back on the FC09 modem). So once I verified that, I flashed CM7 and it says no service. I must be missing a step or something. Is there a step by step on how to get back to epic modem from a nexus modem? If not, maybe we should think about creating one.

When you flashed the modem did you give it 2-3 minutes for the modem to set in.

Full wipe, formatted system, wiped dalvik cache, installed only bare minimum apps from playstore and the problem persists.
I just got off the phone with an ATT representative and they said I should go get a new SIM card tomorrow. Do you know if they will check if I've installed a custom rom? Or tripped that yellow triangle counter? Should I look into fixing that before I go into the AT&T store?
No they wont. You just go in and they just install it for you or they may just give it to you to install. Should be easy with no worries.
