So heres my delima. I recently rooted and installed cyanogen rom (htc desire cdma). I then noticed that my market wouldnt download sometimes, it would just sit there. I did some research and found out that the market uses GTalk and if gtalk isnt signed in, the market wont download.
I played with gtalk and noticed that it wont connect to the servers whenever I am using cellular data. It works fine with wifi. I know the cellular data is working because I can surf the internet.
I talked to a buddy with a htc hero and found his does the exact same thing with the same setup. Which led me to think it was the ROM.
So, i went into recover and wiped the phone and then reinstalled the stock (rooted) rom. Gtalk still wouldnt work over cellular. I "think" that by wiping the phone, everything would be removed from cyanogen, so that crosses that off the list of reasons (can anyone confirm this)? The only thing left would be that the phone is rooted with unrevoked and has s-off. However its currently not possible to turn s-on to see if that fixes the issue.
Anyone have any tips to try.
Is there anyone running a cdma rooted s-off desire that can use gtalk while using cellular data?
Hi. Well I had rooted my phone and was running CM6.1.1 with snapdragon kernel. When the evo shift came out, I bought it and changed over to the shift. 3days in to using shift, the micro usb port failed and would not charge. It wouldn't even recognize when connected to my computer. So had to go and return it.
But when I changed over to evo, it started having problems with data connection. I could make calls but it would not be able to connect via 3g. It could connect through wifi but that was it.
So I unrooted my phone using .ruu and haven't tried it yet. Could you guys help me out and advise me in what option I have. Thanks again.
I had a similar problem when I had my hero....I lost 3g and ended up finding the solution was to wipe all, flash a sense rom and then go back to cyanogen....
Thanks. I'll try that and see what happens. I'll switch to evo tomorrow and see how it goes..
i had a similar problem with 3g data being very faulty after i updated all of my radios to the latest versions. what i did to fix the problem was full data/cache/dalvik wipe and then flash the radio: EVO_Radio_2.15.00.11.19, flash the wimax:EVO_WiMAX_27167_R01, and flash the PRI: EVO_PRI_1.77_003. Prior to that, i had the latest PRI and it would constantly screw with my data connection, so whatever you do, do not update to the latest PRI. Its actually been said that something weird is up with it and that this problem is common.
the radios can be found right here:

good luck man, hope this helped!
I have the same issue. I went from CM7 to a sense ROM and I still dont have date even after the new radio updates. Is there anything else I can do?
Have you already tried reverting back to your old radio that worked?
sure did. Nothing.
I actually did a full unroot using ruu. Then started my phone again back in stock mode. It worked after full unroot. Now I re-rooted my phone and back to using CM6.1.1 with snap dragon kernel.
Same Issue Please Help
Im having the same issue as the OP. I went from CM7 to a sense ROM and lost my Data connection. I can only connect through wifi. However I can't update my profile or my PRL This is a pretty big issue for me as I can't use any data features on the phone except when connected via wifi.
Can someone please suggest a way to re-establish my ability to connect to the sprint network. I do not have 4G in my area so I can't try that route. I have searched the forum for the last day and a half and still haven't found a solution. Ive tried reflashing the newest radios and still no luck. I have cleared the dalvik, cache and factory data reset mutiple times and I have tried sprint lovers newest ROm and also even tried reverting back to the original backup I took when I first rooted before I flashed any ROM's and still no luck. I also tried the ##3283#/MSL code/Data/ restore option and still nothing.
ANY Suggestions? Unrooting would be a last resort option followed by going to sprint and getting a new phone.

going to a sense rom, dialing ##data# and then entering your msl, then going to edit mode, top section, hit menu, and do a reset?
this usually fixes alot of data issues from what i am aware. It won't harm your phone anyway.
Yeah I have tried the ##data# restore multiple times and still nothing. It will reboot and begin the hands free activation but it never successfully completes it. Afterwards when I try to update profile it just sits in a loop saying "the network is preparing you services..." for 20 mins and then times out with nothing happening. I even tried the ##data# restore method again after reading this, for good measure, and still nothing.
Is it possible to connect via 4G and update my profile even tho I cant via 3G? I'm about an hour away from any 4G service I think Cincinnati may be the closest.
this is extremely frustrating and the worst part is that I dont know how it happened as I followed every instruction to the tee and Ive flashed mutiple multiple ROMS over the last 6 months and have had no problem until I tried going from CM7 to myn's warm2.2 rls5. After flashing the ROM and wiping EVERYTHING except the SD card I flashed the new Radio's (Cualkin's Combo pack with the newest Radios) and that's when I noticed the data connection was gone. I'm not sure as which step of the process caused the issue as I didn't notice it until I began to go thru the initial setup on the phone and was unable to connect to my gmail account.
I have backed up a few versions of rom's. Would they have the Data info I need and maybe a could just copy and paste a file or does this info need to be downloaded from sprint in order to setup the phone?
Please any advice??? I'd like to try all my options before I reroot and exchange it, If unrooting and returning is my only option can someone please point me to a good guide for the process? I used Unrevoked 3.21 for the root.
Hello everyone!
Since a few days I have a problem with Mobile Data Connection on ALL Gingerbread ROM's (Oxygen, CM7, GingerVillain, Redux), however a few days ago everything worked fine. I have also noticed that I don't have this problem with Froyo ROM's like RCMixHD
The browser doesn't work, whereas e-mail and The Market work... I always make a Data/Factory Wipe in Recovery before I flash a ROM. I have even tried different radios (currently on 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27), but the problem persists. Internet works fine on WiFi... on edge or hdspa/3g the browser won't work. I have checked the APN settings and it is setup up as it should be. The phone connects to network but somehow the browser is not getting any data.
I even unrooted my phone with an RUU (RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed) and data worked. Then I rooted with Unrevoked and flashed GingerVillain 1.8.... still no change. I have even formated my sd card!!!! I'm out of ideas... Maybe my provider is blocking Gingerbread from going on the internet (SiMobil). Dunno...
I hope that you will understand my problem. And thanks for any help
I'm totally baffled as to what I could have done wrong. First of all I have 2 evo's, my wifes and mine. We were running cyanogen nightlies and found out about all the radio updates. I downloaded the zip file to flash them all and everything was ok on reboot. Another post had also said to flash back to a sense based rom and update the PRL and Profile so I flashed sense and both phones were saying "error code 1012" Looking deeper there were posts saying to ##786# and clear the information, reboot to recovery and flash, dalvik, cache, and factory reset. I did this and that's when we lost all connection to sprints network. Found out that wiped our phone # from MDN and MSID so I changed those back to our phone # and rebooted, still nothing. Unrooted both phones completely and still no go. However they would download the newest OTA if I was connected to wifi. Downloaded that and installed with no problem and now my phone works. Downloaded the prl profile. My wifes however... (she isn't to happy) It won't connect to the network and anytime she dials out the account is not activated. Sorry for such a long drawn out post but I wanted to make sure I got all the information that is needed. If anybody can help me figure this out I would greatly appreciate it.
Hi, just got my Epic Touch, coming from the Epic 4G.
Every time I try to setup my Exchange email, I get the error:
Setup Could Not Finish
Activation Failed. Unable to connect to network. Try again with the network provider's default APN.
Same error 3G, 4G, or WiFi. I didn't think CDMA phones even had APN's?
Found some related stuff: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098806&page=4
No solution that works. Spent 2 hours on the phone with Sprint, who were very nice, but had no solution. They are checking with higher ups and Samsung.
I don't have a lot of hope here, may be taking this phone back tomorrow when my insurance replacement arrives.
Thanks for any help you might have!
I've been getting the SAME error today.
I've been getting the same error since yesterday after flashing StarBurst 1.6. Having thought that was the problem I reverted back to the stock ROM and am still having the same issue.
I was on the phone with sprint for 45 minutes and they recommended I go to a retail store to have it diagnosed.
Other users in the Starburst Dev thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18480495&postcount=2067) reported similar issues and some were able to fix it by restoring app + data for Email 3.0.0.1. Trouble is I don't have a backup of this, so if anyone could be so kind as to provide that, it would be much appreciated.
Call Sprint
Everyone who is having this issue, please call Sprint, so they do something about this!

Have you rooted your phone or installed a custom ROM, or is this a brand new untouched device?
same exact problem here. started occuring after i flashed starburst 1.6
Are you guys all running rooted and alternative roms? I am and had the same issue last night. I deleted the email app and cache and the restored it from a previously made titanium backup of the email app. I only restored the app. Then I went back and restored the data. Doing app and data at the same time did not work for me. I am currently pushing two exchange accounts a 2 gmail accounts. Working fine for me.

I am currently running [ACS][Odin]Completely Stock EG30 with the EG30Plus Kernel. I came from StarBurst 1.6, however removed it immediately because Active Sync wasn't working for me and I thought that ROM was causing the problem. I did not make any backups of the email app or data prior to flashing this ROM so I do not have anything to restore from.
Oh, and if it helps.. I am pushing a gmail account with no problem.
Would it be possible for you to make a backup of this so we I try restoring it? It sounds to me like that is what the solution is..
I would post the apk or the TBackup but I am unsure where the email accounts are stored. I don't want to give a bunch of people my email accounts.
I suspect that when they built that rom they based it off a GSM Galaxy S2 and they forgot to switch out the email client. APN is require for a GSM phone to access the network. Check back with the Rom Dev.
Maybe some one can pull the email.apk from the unmolested stock image thats posted in the developers section.

That makes complete sense! I know it's a bit much to ask, but would you be willing to remove your email accounts temporarily and make a separate backup of the email.apk? I can PM you with my work credentials to set up an account with if that would help.
I'd be very appreciative as I need Exchange on my phone for work. I'm on the verge of going back to my Palm Pre until I get this resolved!
I was doing some playing around, sorry but the apk from the back up has the same issue. It's the restoring of the data that fixes it. Even after the data has been restored, I can delete the email accounts and manual recreate them and they work fine.
Darn! had it working, but not sure how...
Hi guys,
I have been battling the "Activation Failed: unable to connect to network" problem on my Epic 4G Touch (SGS2) since last night (after flashing starburst 1.6).
I was excited that I got exchange to work again after formatting system, data, cache, then wiping factory data and dalvik, then reflashing starburst 1.6.
I got some voicemail errors, so i decided to try and re-flash again, and also to see if exchange would still work. After re-flashing the same way, Exchange doesnt work anymore. I repeated again just to be sure and still didnt work.
I guess I dont know how i got the exchange active sync problem to go away the first time. Maybe it was just dumb luck.

I PM'd PhantomHacker and he told me that it is a known issue with this ROM and it will be fixed. I was able to get things working again by flashing [ACS][Base Rom]Stock Rooted Odex & Deodex until the mail application in StarBurst is functional again. I haven't tried it, but you may have luck using the StarBurst Minimal AOSPmod that was released last night since it has the AOSP Email client on it.
ok, got it working again.
Hi again,
OK, I just got it to work again, and it wasn't all the fancy reflashing that fixed it.
I have re-flashed several times to try and fix this problem and I noticed that after reflashing, my security pin is still active from my previous flash. I remembered that i had removed the pin before flashing the first time also.
I went into Settings -> Location and Security -> Change screen lock -> none. Then I was able to setup Exchange active-sync without getting the error.
I hope this works for others!
My voicemail problems I mentioned (error V30) went away by itself after about 30 minutes.
