[Q] Intermittent Data connectivity issues (Telus) - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Hey guys, for the past few days, i have been getting disconnected from data services from Telus (Montreal area)
It puts me in roaming but i still see the Telus network ID. I need to reboot the phone to get it working again.
The first time this happened was on Mr.X's Stock Telus ROM. I switched to the MIUI ROM and im still getting the issue. So im beginning to think is a network related issue.
Anyone else having this particular problem?

Just curious,
How long has this been going one? Are you using a Telus radio or flashed any other??
There has been the same problem with flashing TMO ICS radio's

[Q] question about data on tmobile network

hey guys, i just got the gsm galaxy nexus in a trade for my galaxy s2 for tmobile. ive been noticing every now and then i lose my data for a little bit then it comes back sometimes and sometimes i have to restart my phone for it to come back. its stock running 4.0.4. the guy updated it before he gave it to me. is there a fix or a reason it does this? thanks for any one helping me. also sometimes im using wifi and i turn it off and the data doesnt come back. lol thought this is odd.
also noticed when on wifi sometimes it trips out and when im downloading an app that is like 27mbs my wifi disconnects and reconnects like crazy. its odd.
nobody else having these issues?

Nope, I have been running on tmobile since day 1 and have never had this issue, but have had multiple others. I suggest you reflash to another rom, or if it is stock reflash the stock rom (if you can do this). Something prob just went wrong when he updated, happens to us all.
Would generally say that's not normal.

What is your stock rom info? Is it IMM76i because if it isn't then you are experiencing a flaw of the first 4.0.4 released by Google.

What ROM did you flash?
What network do you need CDMA or GSM?
Try reflashing the radio. if that doesn't work, then it might be the kernel/ROM. Is your backing of the phone on? Thats where the antennae are. Just making sure
Mine did the same thing today. Luckily I had a backup of stock GB rooted. That's what I'm using now.

I thought this was a troll thread when I saw the title lol, but seriously you might have to flash a new radio.

galaxy s2x telus t989d signal weak on wind mobile and mobilicity

Hi
i bought telus galaxy s2x t989d which is supposed to be exactly the same version of t-mobile galaxy s2 t989, but i started to use it on (AWS 1700) wind mobile or mobilicity, the signal is weak and reception is bad, i red that if i flash t-mobile radio on my phone, the reception will be fixed, if that is true where i can find this radio and how to install it.
thanks
Indeed, you can get better/worse signals depending on your location and your radio. Its more a trial and error thing to see which one works best for you in your area.
Check this thread for some radio's information: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426001
I also recently got the Telus Galaxy S2X to use with Wind Mobile. I though I would need to update the Radio to a T-Mobile one as well but was pleasantly surprised that for me the Telus radio give me full signal strength and data speeds (same as what I got with a Wind LG Optimus 2X phone). You can try flashing the radio but don't think it will help that much.
thanks for the reply, its more like to try and find out

no problems for the past 2.5 years
good reception every where i go, including most basements
except the toilets and elevators in tall buildings
The Blaze radio is better than the stock Telus radio for me on Telus. Worth checking out. You can find it somewhere on the first or second page in the dev section (maybe the 3rd).

1) yes
2) yes
3) none i can think of, it all comes down to the Apps you have loaded and what is eating the battery, there's no magic ROM that will do that for you
4) only a some stock ODIN ROMs, most have them (radios) castrated to prevent damage to phones, when flashing the wrong ROM by accident

I'd say thats pretty standard.
I am using Telus T989X on wind mobile using telus radio here. For me, telus radio seems to pick up the best signal overall.
a lot of stuff affect battery life, there are many topics with good what to do and not to do to make the best out of your battery
something as simple as a live wall paper can drain your battery like a pig
i'll not go into details, as there are plenty of topics about that already
I flashed dark side ucle2 and t mobile radio. I noticed improvement in battery performance. But the reception is same as telis radio

No Signal after Flashing Jedi Jelly/Blaze LB7 Radio/Skyrocket JB Port

Hi, after I flashed the Official Skyrocket port for Hercules and the Blaze LB7 4G radio, I do not have signal. I had signal whenever I was on the ported rom, however, after reverting back to CM10, Jedi Mind Trick, and even stock rom, I do not have signal at all. Does anyone know what is going on and if there is a solution to this?

Did you reflash your usual radio after flashing back to jmt or cm10?
Try a different radio

This happened on my daughters LG Mytouch. Its a T-mobile issue. Call them and say you lost signal, they'll fix it on your end, reboot your phone, and you should be good
Well I get a signal after a fresh install of a ROM, but after a reboot, it loses signal. Is that the same Case as with your daughters phone?

No, it had CM9, then I put CM7. Nothing. Signal never showed up till I called T-Mobile.
Did you wipe system when you flashed rom? Fix permissions....and try flashing the radio a couple times. Tried other known good radios.
Other than that....try the call t-mobile suggestion.
Dis you check your apn settings

I've tried flashing other good radios but it leads me to the same problem. I guess it wouldn't hurt to call tmobile
I'm not an expert....but if u install rom and radio...I don't see how any previous roms or radios can affect your phone. but maybe im wrong. I did have to manually add my apn info flashing telus radio on jedi jelly. Maybe you have to now for some reason??

All of my apn information is correct. I flashed UVLC8 radio and it works now; however, MMS is not working...

Same problm but mine didnt even workd after uvlc8
And your sure you have no signal? I only ask because you know that one the new SR JB ports like Jedi Jelly the signal bar shows that it has no signal, but in reality it has normal signal.
Mine shows no signal, but I have full signal in reality.

in reality it shows no signal and when i search and try to register on network it wont. and same happens on stock.
After doing more testing and flashing on different roms, I think the problem for me might be that I only use the GSM/2G networks rather than the WCDMA/GSM auto or 4G/HSPA+ option. After switching back to the WCDMA/GSM auto option, it seems to work and I get a signal on all roms except skyrocket ports...I wonder why it does that. This should definitely be looked into.
Skyrocket 4.12 roms work...but show no signal. It's a known issue.

[Q] 3.6.21 MIUIandroid Cell Connection

I'm running the Miui v5 rom and it works great in every way except my cellular connection is rather unstable. I have a T999L and I flashed the LTE modem after flashing this rom but it didn't seem to help.
Any advice? Thanks!
If its a rom issue, most likely you'd probably get more help posting in the thread.
Shouldve been no need to flash the modem unless you specifically did something to yours. The rom wouldn't have touched it.
You certain its not a network issue. Maybe they just started working on the tower nearby and it has nothing to do with the phone.
Call support to ask.
