First off, thanks to anyone that can help. I did a search about it, but nothing has come up that has worked.
All of the sudden 2 days ago (I was running Calk's 2.9.2 with EL29 modem for about a week perfectly), my signal strength went to zero, and it hasn't come back.
I have tried every modem I can, tried every stock recovery I could download, and then upgraded to Calk's stock FB27 ICS Build (which I am on currectly) and no dice.
Sprint has said no outages in the area, and I travel 70 miles from home everyday and have the same issue, so I'm ruling out the towers.
I've exhausted all options I can think of, anyone have any suggestions?
3G signal problems
I had a similar problem, but my dude on youtube posted a video to help with 3G data speeds, Big shout out to QBKing77 for a great video, and maybe this will help, I will post a link and see if this helps.http://youtu.be/2LnUFd4osq8

Qbkings video shows how to bypass sprints proxy servers to get better speed. He's getting horrible service, so bypassing servers won't do much of anything in his case.

Calkulin makes great roms, but I recommend trying a different rom from another dev, I used to have gps issues occasional with his gb rom but not with any other. Since you've already tried every modem, and kernel it's your best bet. Make sure you download speedtest.apk to see if you get any improvements, and be sure to always update your profile and prl in the about phone/ system updates menu when flashing a rom, kernel, or modem, or you may get bogged down harsh on speeds.
Good suggestion, I switched roms (keeping FB27) and have had 2 days of great signal. Data is fluctuating like crazy, going from 50kbps down to 985kbps. But at least I can make a call without disconnecting now.
Thanks!
My friend owns a vzn galaxy nexus and used to be on CM9 nightlies. We would usually be on the same build but he had an extremely poor range with connecting to WiFi and Bluetooth. The best suggestion was to do a data wipe and put on a new rom. Jellybean has been put on and the pro lem still remains for him. My phone is on jellybean as well but does not have this issue..suggestions?

Wi-fi
I installed JB today and like many people found that wi-fi seemed weak on signal. Please check this link. I applied this and my wi-fi was back to its previous state if not better.

P.S. I'm the friend w/ the messed up WiFi and Bluetooth. My phone was turned off, charging before..

Bump
i am facing an issue with wifi on my htc desire with AOKP based JB ROM (sites.google.com/site/androidromporting/changelogs).
It is basically frozen, when i go to wifi in settings, at times the screen stays blank and never loads. at times it gets stuck at "turining wifi on..." othertines it shows the wireless network and similar does not react when i choose to connect. stays inert.
i suspect that a voip calling service that i was using caused this issue when it froze during use. I subsequently froze that app using titanium and even uninstalled it altogether a little later.
i am not really finding any solutions on the net. some have suggested a factory reset which i am vary of doing as i am currently travelling..
i really am missing the use of wifi in my hotel room for using things like viber for calling back home.
any suggestions (short of factory reset) will be welcome.
try using swift wifi widget to connect to a network:

Don't know if it has been covered already, but a quick search didn't turn up anything.
I am on 4.04 stock and the problem is, i can connect to the wireless network just fine, and everything works for some time.
Quite soon, no webpages open anymore and everything just gets timed out. The connection, however, is there and signal is perfect.
I slide wifi off, then on, it reconnects and everything works again for a short period. Any idea what could be causing this and what a workaround could be?
Have you tried resetting your wireless router and modem? Sometimes that happens to me, no matter what device or rom I'm using. Shows it perfectly connected but nothing opens. I make a habit to reset my modem and router weekly now to avoid it.

I'll try it right away. My laptop however stays nicely connected and has zero wifi issues, but i'll give it a go and report back.
No help unfortunately. Wifi stays connected, however there is no internet connection after 5-10 minutes.
Is your battery level low, some battery saving feature is active ? Just guessing ?!

Try reinserting your sim card, helped me a couple of times
Well, that's the thing. No mods, no nothing extra running, battery full or almost empty makes no difference. Sometimes the connection dies in one minute, the phone's personal best is like 10 minutes probably
I will try and remove the simcard, however i am unsure how this could affect anything. I am willing to try anything at this point, this is realy frustrating.
I have the exact same problem. Currently I'm running Android Revolution 15.0, but it did the same with Renovate rom. I have hboot 1.31 atm.

I also have the 1.31 Hboot, wonder if that could be part of the problem...otherwise everything is stock.
I'l check out the topic, thank you!
Had this issue too. I switched to only use G band on my wifi box. N band was always making my hox s wifi "freeze"

count me in, ARHD hboot 1.31
problem showed up after rooting and flashing JB roms, anyway the problem existed on hboot 1.28
Hello good people of XDA. I am currently using the above rom by PipelinerArd.
The latest build (04-04-2013) is almost flawless. Everything is working great except for the Wifi.
While the device is connecting to the router, and while I'm standing less than a meter from it, it shows only one or two bars (in the Wifi meter).
Surrounding my house I have about 6-7 other wifi broadcasting network which normally the phone would "see" (e.g. with the Android Revolution HD ROM) with this rom it sees only my Wifi.
If I exit the room and move approx. 6-7 meters away from the router, with only one wall interfering, the phone disconnects from the router.
Anybody else has the same problem? Any suggestions?
wifi doesn't work at all here , same rom , i am unable to turn it off after i turned it on for the first time , even after rebooting !
