Hello,
I am running AOKP JB v1 on ATT Gnex. I havent installed any other kernels or radios. My issue is that, while i have full coverage in an area i know i have data, while my signal bars show full with "H" above them, i cannot get data. Cannot send picture messages or go to google market or use browser. I think i need to flash a different baseband or radio but i have no idea which one i should be using or what is compatible. Can somebody please point me in the right direction. It is rather annoying to loose data constantly.
Well I really need help now. I flashed a radio but obviously it wasnt meant for JB. I have signal enough to text and make phone calls but no data at all now. It shows all grey bars with the H above it. Can anybody link to a working JB radio/baseband for GSM please?
I believe i should be use 9250XXLF1 but i cannot find a download for it
Edit: Found it here:

Try going back to stock completely. I do think its rather a network issue. Do you have the correct data plan for it?

I have been using the UGKL1 radio on ATT in Northern California - has worked well for me. Obviously, radios are very dependent on location but this radio was a big improvement for me.
They changed something with the network, allot of users reporting issues of data drops because its switching from umts to hspa and hspap constantly.

I see it constantly changing between the listed signals although the status bars show full w/ "H" above them. Tried multiple different roms. I switched from lumia 900 to this phone so my plan is good up to LTE. Shouldnt have an issue w/ that. Would flashing a different radio help?

I'm looking at some other threads on similar problems, but I'm wondering why my GNexus doesn't go to 2G automatically.
I must manually change it to 2G/Edge every time. All the other folks around me seem to continue without issue and are able to make calls although their signal isn't too hot. GetRIL says baseband and RIL match. I'm using XXLA2 on AT&T in NYC.
Tried searching around for a solution, but I'm not finding anything.
Any help would be appreciated and I hope this hasn't been asked a million times before as I was unable to find a solution. Thanks.
As in it doesn't change from 3g/4g to 2g automatically when there is no 3g/4g signal available?

Right, it just continues to show No Connection or is it Signal...? Anyway, I can't make calls, go online, anything until I switch to 2G. Is that normal? Lol.
Weird... mine switches to E when I'm in a bathroom depositing =]

Ever since getting my phone, I've had problems with data dropping entirely every so often, but also constantly switching between 3G and H (my Sensation was always rock-solid on H as this is a good coverage area).
Yesterday I was testing the Spotify radio app which streams music. That was the first time I used the data so heavily and the data connection was dropping literally about once a minute. It seems heavy data use causes the connection to drop. Wifi is perfect with no issues at all.
A) Has anyone else run into this and figured out a solution?
B) Is this T-Mobile blocking my data for some reason? Maybe they didn't like me switching to an unlocked phone? Is there a number to dial that will reinitialize my account/connection? Or perhaps another APN I can try?
C) Or does this sound like a radio issue? Or a ROM issue?
You can look at your connection information if you open the phone dialer and enter in #*#*4636#*#*. Then press on phone information and at the very bottom you can force "H" only, so it won't switch back and forth between 3g.
You can also turn off/on the radio on the same page. Plus there's a load of connection information at the top.
This was a huge thing for Toro users, it seems.
Haven't heard as much on the Maguro side.
But if your situation is the same, it's a hardware issue.
If you flash stock (and maybe try swapping in a new SIM card) and it still does it...get it exchanged.
The switching between 3G and H is by design. T-mobile phones don't show the change but it's happening. (Marketing)
As far as data drops go. Is it completely dropping or just buffering?

100% dropping. All bars completely disappear and it's just left with a black blank triangle of no bars, even when I'm in an area of full 4-bar coverage. After a long while the bars reappear, and then after a while, the 3G/H comes back and data is reactivated.
And then it happens again a few minutes later.

What are you running and which radio?
There was a data drop issue on 4.0.4. I haven't had the problem since moving to JB

Rooted 4.1 JRN84D.
How do I tell my radio version? Is it i9250XXKK1?

The radio you are running is XXKK1 which is a very old radio. Perhaps one of the first.
You should update to 4.1.1 and flash the newest XXLF1 radio.
Hopefully that will solve your issues.

Ah I see. Is it feasible that these issues could be caused by an old radio?
Anyway, does this 4.1.1 ROM and radio look like the right one to flash? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1737849
Its definitely possible. Could be a mismatched ril issue too.
Yep that ROM and radio are correct.

It seems every single rom I flash has data speed issues... I mean like a solid minute to load Google.com
I noticed this happened on the og evo with certain roms as well
I can't imagine I'm the only one with this issue... And I know people have said welcome to sprint... But before I rooted and flashed I didn't have these problems
Is there something I'm missing? Should I be flashing another radio for each rom? Is there something being changed in the code to cripple data speeds?
I'm on factory 2.2 now which seems to have better 3g speeds than the rest but still chrome browser pages won't load due to data drops
LTE or gsm?
Maybe your apn's (if gsm)are incorrect on the custom Rom's?
Swype'ed on my CM10 Galaxy Nexus
It's lte but I don't have it in my area so 3g in this case

SOS HELP
when I flashed AOKP's rom and using this rom almost half year
there has a crazy problem is about the T Mobile H+ signal
I remember that I used the stock rom showing the 4G icon everytime. and speed really fast.
but now I'm using the AOKP's rom when you using the H+ maybe just five minutes the network signal change to E(EDGE) or 3G
and network just stopped alittle while like 5-25 seconds then returned back to H+ or H
the problem make me crazy,
I searched in google sometimes but I didn't find any answer, maybe I just use wrong keyword on it.
so, anyone knows this issue? and how to solve that?
AOKP was released a 4g_signal.zip but it could not work right now on the android 4.2.2 ...
It happened every AOKP rom. when I flashed and use it
network signal is really instability.
It's not an issue.. the TMO S3 has only been supporting the HSPA+ bands at most and that is our 4G. When you flash an AOSP ROM it will display H+, which are the bands your on when your network is originally displayed as 4G on a stock ROM. H+ is displayed while data is being transferred. When no data is being transferred your data will bump down to UMTS or EDGE, which displays as your 3G, to conserve more battery. It's something you're gonna have to get used to on AOSP ROMs
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Actually, no it does not jump down to Edge when there is no data pull (and you'll use MORE battery, because its search for the 4G network). When there is no data pull, it will display (on custom ROMs) as 3G. When it pulls data, it will show either H or H+. You already know that T-Mo network (exception of the LTE cities) has no difference between their 4G and 3G.
Now, you said that you're getting edge every once in a while. Try flashing a new radio. But, I'm confused, because you said you're trying to flash a 4G zip onto 4.2. There hasn't been a 4G zip even for a long time on 4.1. It won't work with most 4.1 ROMs, as the last time I saw a 4G zip it was for a specific updated of AOKP. Anyway, how long has the issue been going on since you started dipping down to Edge at certain times?

My mistake. That is what I was initially referring to. I should have said H+ displays AFTER data has been pulled. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

hey gang i'm running the latest aokp task650 build on my S3 I747m. Everything works awesome, except i occasionally lose my data connection. I'll notice my connection status bars are gray, and typically a reboot will fix it. I'm sure going into airplane mode and back out from that would re-establish the connection too.
my APN is set correctly, i compared it to a friends nexus which is not rooted.
Right now i'm set as pda.bell.ca
I've flashed the latest bell modem file (that i'm aware of).
Anyone have any suggestions? i'm pretty new to all of this.. not sure what to do to troubleshoot.

I've been having problems lately when I have poor 4G (LTE) signal. My phone would rather hang around on the LTE network with little to no signal before it switches over to 3G. It's been doing this for a while on the Rogers network for me. I can see when I check the battery stats just how much time is spent without signal which is a lot. At work I get full bars 3G when at my desk but very poor 4G. The only thing causing me to loose signal is the poor transition back and forth between the two networks. Changing modems has absolutely no affect on this matter and I've put the APN's and network modes through the ringer with no change either. I've tried it all and nothing improved it. When I walk outside I immediately hit full bars 4G. Just when I'm inside my work and at home, I get poor lingering 4G. I wish the thresholds for when it switches over were better. I usually just turn off LTE all together which sucks but oh well.
I don't think we are the only people with this either. I've read grumblings about others noticing the same thing.
If curious, I'm running the latest CM10.1 nightly with Ktoonsez kernel on the Rogers network in Ottawa.
Interesting, that could very well cooincide with what i'm seeing. I tend to bounce from 4G to H+ or 3G, i wonder if it's trying to hang onto 4G.
Is there a way to force it to stay on 3G? that might be a good test
I was getting the same issue.
I did a factory reset and reinstalled my ROM plus GAPPs and the issue resolved itself.
I am using the latest modern right now and not my bell one. I think it's from a south American carrier, but bit 100% sure of the top of my head. But it is in the current modern thread
