[Q] Myn's RLS5 4G problems?

My 4G will turn on and scan and even show bars but it doesn't work. It never fully loads. 3G works great. Wifi needs to be shut off and turned back on all the time to work correctly. Is anyone else having the same issues?

Nope, did you check you wimax keys? There is an app in the market to check or maybe you have a bad download

Problem with browser loading page fully
For some reason, no matter if I am on WiFi, 3g or 4g, the browser fails to fully load webpages with a LOT of content.... puzzling.

Based on your original comment, I can't really tell if you mean that it doesn't work when you're browsing, or if you mean it's just not grabbing an IP from sprint or what. I'm going to assume that you're experiencing issues with browsing though after your phone is connected to 4G and showing that it has a 4G signal.
Myn botched the adblock feature in his ROM. You'll have to restore the hosts file if you haven't already. The browser will partially load pages or lock up on sites with flash ads because of this. Grab AdFree (it's free) and tap "Revert". That should restore the hosts file. You can then use the program to block ads effectively.

I did the adfree fix last week or something like that when I think everyone was having issues with it. For some reason though 4G will say I have signal and then take forever to load or never completely load at all but if I shut it off 3G works great.
My wifi seems like it just turns off after a little while but says I still have a signal. If I turn off the toggle and turn it back on it works fine again. It's just annoying.
I'm thinking of switching roms but I just don't know which one to go to. I have really liked myn's rom and am not sure what else is good.

Good news is you have your RSA keys, you might want to back them up in case you do end up switching around ROMs and flashing radio updates and such.
There could be several things going on here, so it's hard to give you a good direction to go in. Are you maybe using a custom kernel? Have you updated your WiMax and other radios? Maybe try flashing back to the rooted version of the stock ROM, and grab the latest software/radio updates.
Here's the latest rooted stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=874251

*Probably don't want to update HBOOT, it's not included in the Combo link, so you're safe grabbing that. Also, some people have said that the PRI/NV 1.90 have been giving them ****ty battery life, 1.77 should be fine if you notice this.
Anyway, my recommendation for now is to just get everything back to scratch. Check and see if the 4G works after that. If it does, maybe it was the ROM or some kind of kernel you were using (if any). If it doesn't work still, your area might just be having 4G issues right now. I don't know where your area is, but if you're on the cusp of 4G deployment, it may only work sometimes. I know here in Minneapolis before deployment was official, it would work in isolated areas. Then all of a sudden, the signal would be there and I wouldn't be able to connect. I would just get an "Obtaining IP address from Sprint" message and it'd stick there. Couple of weeks later, it started working again.

I'll try that thanks.
I updated all of the radios and everything the directions on Myn's RLS5 said to do.
I'm in Nashville and only get 4G in certain areas so it's not a huge deal. It would be cool if it worked correctly though. I just wasn't sure if it was the rom or not.
I haven't changed kernels, I'm just using the one that comes with RLS5 but I do get really ****ty battery life.

[Q] How to use wifi no contract ?

I switched to my older phone so that I could save ten a month for the time being. Though wifi isn't working. Anyone knows what gives or could be done so that wifi could be used ? -Thanks Nolon

Gonna need more info to be able to help you.
ROM, Modem, etc.

I'm using midNIGHT rom v.3.3. dk28 that's modem right ?
It shows that it connects to my home network but it looks like it kicks it off and says it is disabled.

Update the Modem to EB13 for starters.

I was thinking about calling Sprint too perhaps.

They're not going to be much help to you since you're running a custom Rom, they will recommend you go to a Sprint repair center and they're just going to ODIN your phone back to stock.

Will do. Just won't be able to atm. Do you think it's a Sprint issue or ? As it wasn't an issue until I killed the contract. I'll message back possibly tomorrow or the next day ? Busy with the kids.

It isn't within Sprints control to disable wifi from your phone, it's most likely some kind of modem issue.

Ah well it's been running for 75 hours. I'll reboot and post back tomorrow or tonight. Thanks for the info.

I figured it out. I noticed I was able to connect to open connections but not my secured connection regardless if I knew the password. I'm unsure what the issue was but I can only assume it's something to do with if you choose to severe your contract with Sprint or change phones that for whatever reason secured wifi connections won't work..But how did I fix it ? I changed my SSID and my password to my router. It's now running full speed. I'm still using version 3.3 midNIGHT. I need to change that out after figuring out if the video and camera will work better these days. It's been awhile since I've been on here or tinkered with my phone though. Just rearranged my computer today. Still need to blow it out though. :/ Anyways just for reference. Hope this helps if anyone has a similar issue at anytime.

Sprint has absolutely no control over your phone being able to connect to wif. It was most likely a problem with your network and I would guess a reset of your router would have solved the problem.

Perhaps I didn't write that properly. Thee incident occurred the day that I released my Epic from my contract with Sprint. Not that it happened because of Sprint. Unsure why it occurred. What I do know is resetting my router fixed the error and that if anyone else were to run into this problem. I hope they find this thread. My wifi connection is still running strong since I had reset the router also.

Did you try rebooting your router and modem? sounds like an IP conflict.
Do you BONSAI?

im clearly half retarded

so i thought i did the right thing...to start from the top...my old evo broke...got a new evo...didnt update the prl...rooted/flashed a new rom and boom...my internet blows...its stuck on 1x...so..i flashed a sense rom...updated the prl...now im missing something because when i go back to the roms i wanna use...its still stuck on 1x...what am i doing wrong?

You're most likely not doing anything wrong. I assume you're using an AOSP rom. Aosp roms show your true signal, if you're on 3g or 1x. Sense roms show 3g all the time, even if you're on 1x. Sense lies to you. Aosp shows the truth. Although there is now a mod that allows you to see true signal on Sense as well now.

A PRL is a "preferred roaming list" and has nothing to do with data speeds unless you're talking about data speeds when you're roaming. Do you mean that you are getting no 3G coverage at all?

Are you sure you are getting 3g at all? Sense doesnt tell you when you are on 1x unless you grab an app for that. Are the 1x culprits all aosp and you are just under the impression you are getting 3g on sense when in all reality you are not? Run a few speedtest.net tests and let us know what your speeds are on both on both. I doubt your speed changed.

hmmm...interesting....well im running MIUI...but its weird...because i used to get good signal...i wonder if maybe this is tying in too all the problems it seems a lot of people are having...im gonna run the speed test right now and see

signal and speed arent necessary related, though i believe aosp does calculate that into theirs. On sense it is (almost?) always separate. Anyhow I have only seen a few phones get "stuck" internally at 1x, no worries that would also be fixable.
You may just be having tower issues, thank sprint for that. Another good question is do you get 3g on a diff tower? drive out of the range of your current tower and see what ya get.

yea im gettin a steady 1x from home all the way to work which is about 15 miles away...
my first test:
Ping: 558ms Dl:125 Ul:148
second test:
ping: 807ms Dl: 126 Ul: 140
3rd:
ping: 786ms dl: 126 ul: 143
im not too knowledgable about this stuff....but i feel like the numbers are good right?

No, those are def 1x speeds. Sprint average is 540k. Being that you have used multiple towers i would assume its the phone. Grab easy settings from triforce, luke and see what the settings are. If you cant get back to 3g you may want to grab the 2g/3g toggle from triforce, luke for a buck and set it to hybrid or evdo only and see if that works. Its the only thing that helped me once.
I tried profile restores, other prls, everything. Have you tried any other prls? I wouldnt suggest a profile restore because you dont have 3g and it needs that to provision.

Have you gone into ##3282# (sense rom), and cleared your profile data (top item, then menu IIRC). This will cause the phone to reboot, and do an OTA activation on the subsequent boot.
Have you messed with your 3g settings - meaning, is the device being forced into cdma mode only??
Which rom did you specifically flash?
And I guess most importantly, before you did anything, did you ensure 3g/4g work with the phone in its stock state?

I had this same issues awhile back and the quoted text is what worked for me.

you can try a profile restore but it may not activate well without 3g. Sprint told me that themselves, so have others...though it did activate for me, i have seen people get stuck though for a bit...

well...from what i understand i guess i have no idea if 3g was working before...i know 4g did work fine...and it still works weather im using the wimax setting on a sense rom or even before i rooted it....so somebody give me a run down of what to try...i read a lot of those suggestions...and to be totally honest...i have no idea what too do...like i said im kinda new to this whole thing

nevermind...i found the thread with the whole step by step process...thanks for your help guys...i got it up and running

[SOLVED] No Data on Wifi

Hey guys,
I am having the weirdest issue with my wife's phone. A few weeks ago she started complaining about her data speeds at home. Through some troubleshooting, I noticed that while she was connected to Wifi, she wouldn't get data for a couple minutes, and then she would get it for about 30 seconds before it dropped again, rinse, repeat. Now, it doesn't drop the signal, it still says its connected to my network, but will not load any data whatsoever. Turn off wifi and surf on 3G and its perfect, weird.
She was running stock rooted TW on 4.1.1 with LI3 modem when she started complaining about it out of the blue. I figured she had maybe messed something up so I wiped and flashed CM10.1 along with LJ3 modem. Still the same issue. Now I just tried flashing MA6 and its still doing it.
I'm having her just stick to 3G until I can figure out the issue but I'm stumped and am not finding any fixes online. Anybody else had this issue or know anything I could try before taking it in to the Sprint store?

Re: No Data on Wifi
Reset the router in your house. Complete reset then set the phone up again to the wifi it should do the trick.

I will give that a shot tonight, but I think I have done that within the last week because I was having an unrelated internet issue. I was under the false impression that the modem affects wifi, but that is the kernel, correct? But that changed when I flashed CM10.1 anyway and still no beans. Hopefully a good router reset fixes it.

Unfortunately the router reset didn't work. I'm at a loss but I *really* don't want to take it in to our local Sprint store because they are a bunch of idiots.

Did you update profile and prl lately? Sometimes mine misses the update and then everything is fine when I do it manually.

Just tried, still no beans. Weirdest thing ever. Wifi works for 30 seconds then I get nothing but network connection error everywhere for about 2 minutes, then data comes back. I wonder if its a hardware issue. I just flashed back to stock rooted MA6 + kernel and its still acting up.

Search on google, the programming codes are usually not specific to a phone so its safe to try and use one that you see somewhere
And even if it is specific to a certain phone, then it just wont work when you dial it, no problems come about as a result of trying them

I went poking around and found that my wife's phone and my desktop PC were using the same IP address. Renewed my desktop PC's IP address and everything is perfect!

[SOLVED] Data stopped working

Running CM11 on PagePlus. I cannot access the Internet. I was able to at one time. Thought it was the Rom so I flash CM10.1 and Stock rooted rom. I reactivated the phone after the installs. Every time it says the network is connected but I cannot connect to the Internet or send MMS. Starting to think it is the phone. Any ideas?

More info:
IP address is applied. Able to ping ip address but not some other known ip address. Traceroute does one hop to 66.174.216.161, which seems to be a Verizon ISP. Might try playing with apns-config.xml. I had tried the one I had when it was working previously but did not seem to change anything.

I'm new, but had similar problems

I'm not sure the MMS issue has been resolved, as of yet. Last time I check the Development thread it seemed like there wasn't yet a fix. Someone will correct me shortly if I'm mistaken, I'm sure.
The data problem you're having is one that I struggled with for a couple weeks in CM11... I don't know how much help I can be, because I'm not really sure what ended up actually fixing it for my dINC. All I know is that I spent about three hours dirty flashing and restoring from nand backups, sometimes the full backup and sometimes just partitions. I also threw in a *228 somewhere in there. Anyways, Through persistence, and sheer dumb luck, I finally have a pretty stable data connection, as long as I don't use the mode switcher in DUbattery(that seems to mess 3g up until reboot).
sometimes it helps to toggle airplane mode on then off.

Thanks for the tip. I toggled airplane mode on and off. I could then load google in the browser but it would not do anything after that. I have a new inc and an OG Evo coming in. Might have to retire my inc for the kid to play games on. My wife is using and OG Evo with no data or mms problems on 10.1 and I am sort of digging the larger screen. Also might be able to help zach with troubleshooting cm11 for the evo (supersonic).

Glad to know it was not just my phone. I am back on your 2/17 build and was worried there was some leftover firewall stuff even though I wiped everything except emmc and sd-card before the flash.
On another note. I have that other EVO coming in so should be able to load up CM11 and do some logging for you.

So I switched mobile data off this weekend with the silent profile and when I switched it back on using the default profile my data worked.

I'm glad you found a fix! On my dINC, I don't use the profiles, and mobile data crashes randomly. After flashing the March 23rd build, it has gotten somewhat better, but it always seems to skip out when I need it most... specifically.... when I use Google voice search to either dictate text messages or navigate to an address(delivery driver). the latter is especially frustrating, because I only use the navi when I'm already out of the store and can't find something, so no alternative available. Sometimes, even when the 3g symbol is full in status bar, I'll push the voice button and it will say, "cannot reach google *** etc" :crying:
