Hi guys, just flashed a new rom (jm7).. everything went ok.. but when I rebooted I notice that I get just about no signal in areas where I used to before get full bars.
Tried going back to other rom's but no luck, I still continuously get a poor signal. One thing I did notice is that right after boot the signal slowly goes to 5 bars (even in areas with bad signal) and then slowly goes down to 0-1. This same instance happens when I place a phone call as well.
Any ideas? I can barely use data when this is going on as well.
Try going into mobile networks and network operators and see if there's a second option for your network. You might be connected to a weather signal. It's under wireless settings. Happened to me.

Are you sure that your network operator make some not some work on cell bt in your area? One time i have too like you bad and wrong signal, and make all with my galaxy, reboot,recovery, signal refresh app, APN point new entered, but still problem. After all, I call my operater and they say me:" Sorry , we make same work on cell base station in area your city !!! Sorry for bad signal, we busy to make repair speedy !!! "
Best regards
Sorry double post
Thanks for the responses... no go sadly.. tried switching the 3 different "bell" networks and only 1 allowed me to connect. As for signal str in area, a friend who has the same network has 4 full, while i only get 1
I've tried reformatting/reflashing/reseting and nothing has worked.. what am i missing?

I live in the suburbs of Houston where the WiMAX coverage is kind of spotty. If I leave an area of coverage for more than like say a minute, my 4G will stop attempting to scan for a new 4G signal and never attempt to reconnect even if I enter a new area with 4G coverage. I have to manually toggle the connection in the notification bar.
I've searched the forums and noticed several posts describing the same issue.
Does anyone have a solution?

I have seen this issue as well, do you use bluetooth? I know its a random question but I have only noticed this issue with mine when I have the bluetooth on.

Bluetooth is not turned for on my device.
Bump. Anyone else having this issue?
I'm using the phone app so I don't know the link, but there's a link in general, I think, that describes increasing 4g performance. There's two simple tweaks to do and some involved ones. I just did the two simple ones. One is to change the retry interval down to 15 seconds and the minimum signal level for 4g lock is -110db. Those two changes made a noticeable improvement on fringe areas and inside for me.

I did those tweaks, that is not the issue. I have tried all the WiMax_Scan_Retry from 1 to 300 and the WiMAX will never reconnect.
For example: I do not have 4G at school and I have 4G at home. If I drive to school, the 4G will disconnect.
Then when I drive home back into 4G coverage and go to sleep even after 10 hours, the 4G will not reconnect.
Bump!!! Also have this issue.

Try doing what most people do, when you know your leaving a 4g area turn it off. Then turn it back on when you get home. No sense in wasting battery. That and it only takes a couple seconds to turn out back on and reconnect.

I have extended battery that will literally last days even with 4G on so that is not an issue for me. Besides, this is not a viable solution if I want 4G in the car and it moves in and out of areas of spotty coverage. 3G where I live is about as fast as 1x.
Mod? Rooted? Modem?
Is your phone software on stock?
What OTA updates/mods are you running?
Kernel/Modem versions?
It would be good to know of the people seeing these problems have similar software/mods/modems.

I agree. Post your setup in detail. It will help to narrow this issue down. For example I had similar prob's on EL13 modem but with 26/29 flash all is good.
So more info plz.

I tried these:
Stock/Stock+Root/Starburst/Caulkin
EK02/EL26/EL29
Rogue1.3/1.4
This may be an example where adjusting the WiMax settings in ##data# with MSL number will help. Try lowering minimum signal picked up from -89 to -110, you can also change how long it stays connected and how fast it reconnects too...and here's where to read about it all...I did it on my OG Epic, Nexus, and this phone but slightly modified settings..it could also be a kernel thing too. Some of the Nexus ICS ones do that and wont reconnect until you go into settings and toggle

Ok now it's time to go to your local sprint store. Im outa ideas. You have done morethan most B4 choking a rep.LoL.
I have this same problem.. Sometimes sitting in the living room. When im outside i get 4 bars of 4g but inside i get 1. if some reason i get disconected, it seems to switch over to 3g and stay there without scanning again. If i walk outside again, still stays 3g until i toggle off and on 4g again....
UNnamed with EL29 leaked modem flashed with Gunslinger kern.......

Anyone know of an app that will toggle 4g for us when it loses connection?
Or maybe a tasker profile? I tried in tasker, but I can't seem to get it to do more than basic things. There a couple spots in town that always lose 4g when I drive by and never reconnects as well. 3g is slower than when I use roam control on 1x verizon.
Ok so I have an unlocked LG Nitro HD with custom ROM (CM10) and it has a very weird problem. I've tried two different AT&T MVNO SIM cards (AirVoice and Consumer Cellular) both have the same issue. My data signal keeps changing from H to H+ and occasionally to 3G like every few seconds regardless of where I am using the phone even outside. I don't understand what the problem is. What could be the issue?

Are you able to use mobile data or are you just wondering why the icons go back and forth?

Data does work but it seems to drain the battery with the networks constantly switching and on occasion I get a "No Connection" screen on certain apps, I guess because if I open an app while its swapping networks the app cant connect. It's strange.

They are set up properly.
I had another odd problem, just a few minutes ago was texting someone and all of a sudden phone froze while vibrating then restarted! Don't know if that's a bug in CM10 or what, maybe the network swapping is as well.

Maybe make a backup of your CM10 and try flashing a different ROM not based on CM10.

I think this is the same issue that I recently fixed in quattrimus. I will try to get the fix included in the cm kernel soon. You might try my Rom to see if the fix works.

I tried installing CM9 and it appears to have fixed the problem, the phone doesn't try to connect to the H+ network anymore, only the H network and seems to stay on it so far. I did see it quickly go over to the 3G network but it doesn't appear to be causing any issues, it went right back to the H network. However, I really wish the CM10 ROM worked right, as CM9 is so old...

CM10 is snappy and oh so buttery smooth, I give you that. On another note, did you try any other CM10 variants? I'd give tdmcode's AOKP a spin. He says he might have fixed that problem you were talking about in his build.

I downloaded the CM10 ROM. It seems to behave slightly differently. It stays on H normally, but when I start to do something with data, it will go to H+ until the data loads, then go back to H. So far no disconnects, I'll keep you posted. Right now I have very limited data, I'm switching to T-Mobile as soon as UPS decides to deliver my SIM card (just found out they have a 1900MHz HSPA+ network in my area!) I'll be able to test it better then, but for now I'm trying to stick to wifi, especially since I wasted so much data tonight playing around with this stuff, lol.

Ditto... H and 3g are subsets of each other. Namely they can handle simultaneous voice and data 4G (h+) and lte can only handle data. So it switches back to H so you can receive and make calls plus it uses less battery. If you are on either 4G techs and receive a phone call while downloading it will automatically switch to H from h+ or lte, this is why. The only way you will never see this is on an AT&T rom where it only has 4G and lte icons.

H+ isn't a subset of 4G is it? I know that the CM's have separate icons for 3G/H, H+, 4G, and LTE.

That certainly is debatable but the US's largest carrier considers it to be, it behaves like 4g, H+ may not be as fast but it is 90%+ as fast in most markets small enough to not make a noticeable difference as far as people's perception and the technology behaves like LTE in a lot of respects, CM is international so it just conforms to International norms so that's why you get H+ AND 4G (LTE) designators.

I am having problem with Mobile data, the phone status bar show 4G LTE icon and i have 2 bars on the signal but i get no data coming thru.
I reboot the the phone and i get data right away, after a certain time the phone would loose the data connection, i dont know when it will do this.
Sometimes I toggle the Airplane mode, i would fix the connection too. But phone reboot always does the trick.
Anyone knows of a fix or a work around for this?
I am running ViperOne 1.6 Rom. 1.5 OTA to 1.6
Thanks

I have the same problem except I'm using the T-Mobile version. I would be listening to Pandora and the internet connection would drop for 5 minutes. Statusbar shows good LTE and toggling mobile data does not do anything, only restarting or waiting. Using ARHD 5 on TMOUS

Hi
As in title i seem to have a lot of time when my network drops and i have the spinny icon. It seems to be when wifi is connected and network mode is the top one that inlcudes LTE. This all seems to have happened maybe since flashing Fulmics, not sure if that's a coincidence though..
Could my EFS be corrupt? is there Any way to check? My IMEI number is still showing. I've flashed back to stock LG rom using TOT method.
Unfortunately i don't have a back up of EFS, as I only have learnt about needing that because if this problem.
Is it new phone time?
Cheers all

Everything works, Its just that I seem to lose network connection when I connect to wifi whilst the phone is in 2g/3g/4g/auto mode. I just get "emergency calls only". If I disconnect from WIFI and restart the network, it tends to come back. If I am in 2g/3g mode, and I'm connected to wifi, everything is fine.
