[Q] Help! My data won't turn on anymore! - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Just as the title says. I was on the internet for a bit. Went to get something to eat and came back an hour later and I noticed my data wasn't connecting but it says data was on. I tried apps to force it to turn on but to no avail. I flashed back to a stock rom after some issues, and it still won't turn on. I just finished re-rooting and flashing on Aristodemos, and my data still won't turn on! I can toggle it, and it will say it's on but it wont connect. And even in the pull down bar it says it's on but for some reason i can't toggle it. If i do press it, it will stay highlighted or unhighlighted until i toggle something else. Does anyone have any idea what's wrong?

Did you check that you still have an IMEI number? Look in system settings/about phone/status and scroll down.

This happened to me last night, in my task bar when I would reboot it would say restricted access has changed. Google it and not much comes up, did all kinds of stuff to no avail. Pulled sim and re inserted then it worked.... Was driving me up the effin wall. On kyanROM if that matters.

Dead LG Optimus One

i tried to update the stock firmware from v10s to v20g by flashing. Afterwards, there is no signal and when I try to exit my lock screen the screen goes black and says " application settings process com.android.settings has stopped, please try again". All I can see is my status bar and I have no signal whatsoever.
Is my phone completely bricked?
you flashed using kdz?
which rom did you used?
It might be the case that you loose your baseband.
I also suppose that you dont have any nandroid backup.
Dont worry it will be sorted.
Just reflash it again using the same.
If it doesnt works then flash it using stock froyo.
Hey thanks for replying, I just rebooted and it fixed it.... lol
But the problem im facing now is the battery draining rapidly... i just surfed the web with wifi for about 15 mins and talked on the phone for 10 minutes and in three hours, the battery dropped about 25%.
Whats weird is the cell standby is consuming more than 40% of that

Known issue. Open phone, type *#*#4636#*#* to get the service menu, select Phone Information, push menu button, choose "Select Radio Band" and accept the force close crash, then go back into "Phone Information" and scroll down to "set preferred network type," change it to anything else, then back to "CDMA auto (PRL)." You can exit out now and your battery should last a long time. It seems like a long process and you have to do it every time you reboot, but it goes pretty fast once you're used to it.
Thanks legion, I'll try that....
Theres also another issue i found today, The phone seems to be using up the internal memory for no particular reason after I run apps and close them. I use appcleaner to clear my cache and also cleared my browser cache/history/forms.
I went from 96mb this morning to 75mb right now.... I haven't installed anything except removing a 200kb app........so weird
EDIT: Oh geez, just reboot and i regained 20mb.... probably a reading error on the internal memory....bleh
I have one last question though... I've been having this problem since 2.2.1 >> after every reboot, the i have no service/sim till 15 minutes later.... weird... my phone is unrooted btw
thanks!

WIFI Problem

I've had my Xperia Play for a little while now and this is my first problem I've had with it. I held down the power button to turn it off and waited for a while. I then took out the battery and looked at the IMEI code and the Serial Number and then placed back in the battery back in the phone. It then rebooted and said I was connected to my WIFI connection but the time and date were wrong. It also came up showing 2 missed calls from earlier in the day.
I went into the settings and turnt on and off WIFI but still no luck. I've also tried rebooting my phone multiple times and have had the same outcome. I can use the browser on my phone but can't connect to things such as the android market or youtube. So the phone comes up with a WIFI symbol at the top of the screen but I can't go on anything apart from youtube and the market. Any suggestions?
Please Help me as this is really annoying.
Exactly the same problem I had before, I can't remember what I did to fix it, if you come up with a solution post it please, weird thing is this issue started as I was going to read this thread.
I wasn't paying much attention when I fixed this but I think I might have fixed it by turning off the option in time and date settings that uses internet values. Then the time swt itself and then I just turnt it back on. Its working fine now. Very strange.

[Q] Weird Issue... Somethings Very Wrong

Hi everybody... I've been using my HTC One X happily for going on 3 months now, and just out of the blue I had the weirdest thing happen. I was just cruising the internet when I lost my WIFI connection, so I go into settings to see what happened and it just says not in range(it was defiantly in range), so then I turned WIFI off, and back on and nothing. So I did a restart. It got worse. The WIFI kept saying connecting, authorizing, searching, connecting, authorizing, searching, continuously never actually connecting. So I tried restarting again. Now, the WIFI works right, but everything else is completely screwed up. I was running APEX launcher, and widget locker, and APEX launcher keeps closing randomly, so i thought well something got messed up there when i restarted so i took it off and re-installed. Nope. Still does it, so then i just took it off and its still having issues. Every time I exit an app or hit home, I get a loading thing and it takes forever to go to the home screen. I tried doing a factory reset and it won't go to the boot menu. It just starts up and then says its recovered from an error and asks if i'd like to send an error report. What the heck is going on with my phone? It's not even hardly usable the way its acting and I can't even reset the stupid thing.
a little more info about your configuration may be helpful. Is your one x stock with a locked bootloader or are you running a custom rom?
Sounds like corrupt data somewhere.
If a factory reset doesn't solve it, try flashing the RUU.
turn your router off and back on, mine did this with a Sky router at my friends house. Worked fine after.

[Q] wifi toggle switch greyed out

i have a samsung galaxy note 2. i got a popup msg from att alerting me that i was exceeding my plans data limit. shortly thereafter, i noticed wifi wasnt on. i tried to toggle it on, but the button was greyed out and would not allow me to slide it to the on position. it seems to be permanently off. i have powered off the phone, taken out the battery and sim and sd card, powered it back on, still not able to select the on switch on wifi. i reset my router, still nothing. i downloaded wifi fixer, still nothing. i have been reading up on this and it seems no one knows what gives. my phone is not rooted. i have turned off wifi power saver. i have not performed a hard reset as most posts i have read said that didnt work. i'm at a loss.

I had something similar in that I would turn on wifi and it would not turn on. Tried everything you did, even the hard reset w/ no love.In my case once I turned off Bluetooth and tried to turn it back on it began exhibiting the same behavior. I was able to "fix it" by booting up in safe mode, turning on the wifi (and BT in my case), and then rebooting. It has been working since then without issues.

[Q] Yet another "No service" Issue

Hi everyone,
I'm running into what seems to be a common issue with this phone - getting a no service error. This started happening after I turned my phone on this morning, and I don't recall changing anything that could have caused this.
When I look at the testing menu, the network status flickers between no service and emergency calls only. The network mode defaults to "Unknown", and when I try to change it to anything else it will return back after a second. The radio status is set to off, and if I click the button to turn it on, it does not appear to do anything. I've tried rebooting my phone several times, pulling the battery, reseating the SIM card, clearing the cache, but nothing I've tried so far seems to work.
Is there anything I can do that minimizes destruction (clearing all data or doing a reflash) to get this working?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I'm not sure what I just changed, although my phone decided to connect to the network... Huh!
