Randomly losing 4g after root. - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I rooted my device after playing with it for a day. After rooting it I installed a different kernel and lost my imei. Of course I fixed that problem. Now I keep dropping to edge and staying there in a place that is blanked with hspa+. Any ideas of a fix?
I tried the 4g fix and now it works. Strange thing is that it drops to edge and then when I start transferring data, it comes back. Very strange... So yeah, it is kinda working.

4G hanging on FC builds

So, lately, my 4g starts to hang after a few minutes of use regardless of what I'm doing. It could be after 5 minutes or after 20. Whether I'm streaming videos or downloading a torrent, the connection just freezes up; and i have to restart 4g to go back up. And i can tell this is happening because a) obviously whatever I'm doing is in a paused state, and b) in the Wimax DM the signal strength and quality are stuck at a particular number (they're usually constantly changing).
Has any one else experienced this issue or have know of a fix?
Ps - I had this problem on modems FC15 and FC24.

Have not had this problem with any of the leaked modems or ics builds.

I'm also having this issue. I'm also having the 4g not waking up issue on certain apps. Never had the issue on gingerbread so i guess its exclusive to ics. Anybody getting acore has stopped working unexpectedly? Didn't get this on fc 22 just started yesterday when i installed fc 24 tar.

this happened to me on GB also
I didn't have this issue with the older FB builds, and definitely didn't have it with GB. Now just gotta find the time to test the older modem to determine whether its the modem or the kernel. Yay (sarcastically)...

CM7 issues. (Dolphin browser, 4G, in-call sound)

So I believe I've had this issue everytime I fashed any kind of CM7 to my phone. The backup of my dolphin browser never actually restores correctly. All my other apps restore their data perfecty and work fine. But dolphin browser always just restores the app but I can never get my data back on it, so I lose all my bookmarks and saved emails and stuff which is annoying and sometimes I forget some of my passwords lol. But has anyone else had this problem? Even when I backup my bookmarks from the app itself and restore them it never gets me them back.
And the problem I'm having with 4G is it never connects or shows up. I know I need to have 3G on first, and I do, but when I turn 4G on it says "turning on" then "unknown" and it never even shows in my status bar as scanning or anything.
Also, the in-call speaker sound stays on the loudest even when lowerng it to the end. Its like that with regular talking on the phone and head phones, and no, its not from voodoo control. But is there anyway to fix this?

Tb. I always use it and it works perfectly on every other ROM I flash. Its just cm7 I'm having problems with. And no the backup isn't corrupted or anything. I'm thinking maybe it could be because dolphin runs differently on cm7?? Or has some kind of different data?

I can't imagine that the data would be stored in a different location. But you even said dolphin's own back and restore doesn't work on cm7? I would say that is a dolphin issue not a cm7 issue contact their support.

Ya that's what I'm thinking. Maybe it runs in a different way or something.
But anyway, that's not the biggest problem I'm having. I don't mind that as much as any of the other two issues.
4G, for some reason, just isn't working for me. Can anyone confirm that it actually works so I can see where the problem is from?
Also, the in-call speaker sound stays on the loudest even when lowerng it to the end. Its like that with regular talking on the phone and head phones, and no, its not from voodoo control. But is there anyway to fix this?

Not sure about the in call volume I can't test 4g seeing I don't have 4g where I live. Which version of CM7 you on? 7.2 RC2 is the latest version.

4g is working for me on cm7... or it was 2 days ago... not on cm7 right now so can't test... maybe they are working on towers in your area... they are starting deployment of lte and it has been giving their network some problems from what I've read... I know there was a big outage last week in texas because of this... maybe its that...

Maybe, or maybe not. Ill restore my backup of thunderhawk and test 4G to see if its from the ROM or the network. And I seen another tread talking about the in call sound to always being too loud so I guess that's a ROM based bug but not a big problem.

4G/WIMAX data use issues

For some reason, Whenever I try to use 4G, it shows as connected, but I can't use any data, nothing connects when using apps of internet, but it shows at connected. Any ideas what to do. I tried unrooting, factory resets, etc
Mine has done this before and a simple toggle fixed it

Try a different modem. Make sure you update profile and prl. Im on fd26 modem right now, seems to work well for me.
Get rid of sprint. That is what I am doing when the s3 goes to a t and t. 17 years is long enough to wait for them to get better.

Sporadically losing data

Is anyone else having the issue of data cutting in and Out? If I reboot the phone data works fine for a while.

I've experienced this also mostly when driving around town, lte is pretty new in Denver so I think it's a problem switching from lte to hspa and vise versa. Resetting seems to do the trick for me to tho

I've had this happen to me several times. Fixed it a couple of times by toggling airplane mode, but had to reboot once to fix it... frustrating.

Check that.
I found something saying AT&T Smart Wi-Fi was the problem.. I disabled that and haven't had a single issue since. I started noticing the issue after a recent update, and I think AT&T Smart Wi-Fi was pushed during that.
I dont have that installed. Debloated with tb
That's weird. I'm on stock ROM and just started noticing that. I'm probably not much help, I'm a recent convert to Android. What is TB? Do you have to be rooted for TB?
Titanium backup. Yes root required to debloat

[Q] Possible wifi issue?

Hi,
I am wondering if it is normal that wifi speeds slow down after a certain time. My wifi at home can reach up to 22 Mbps down and say in a couple hours for example it would drop to 10 Mbps. Immediately I would restart my phone and it would be back up to normal speeds of 20ish Mbps. I do multiple back to back tests on speedtest.net app and my wired connections and other wireless devices are consistent.
My wifi does not disconnect and it has no problems connecting to other souces. At work i have the same wifi issues.
I have a Canadian Rogers Note 2. I am rooted and flashed to cleamrom 4.0.5, fully wiped and reset before flash with twrp. I have tried turning off power saving mode during the slow wifi transmissions and still have this issue,
I am lost as to what to do. Any advice would be appreciated.
Yes this is for me as well I have been on clean rom and now stock and it continues to do the same not a huge deal but I just noticed it last night im on mediacom if thats any help
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
In the meantime I have installed My Data Manager to see if there is any unknown wifi data transmitting while this problem is happening. When I had the phone bone stock I really did not monitor this issue.
I use the international rom and I notice YouTube buffers longer than it should than it chops shortly after. I just tried recycling wifi and now it's snappy again.question now is how long it will last

I notice link speed drops to about 5mb when directly infront of AP
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app
I have been playing with this issue for a few days now. I can sort of recreate this by leaving the wifi range and entering. This will create that speed drop I described in my first post. By turning on and off the wifi toggle resolves this.
While using My Data Manager it shows no mystery wifi or data transfer in the backgound. Everything checks out in that aspect.

I did not notice a drop when infront of the AP.
I'm running stock Att and started having slow wifi speed after the 4.1.2 update. Toggling the wifi fixes the issue but it slows down again eventually.

yeah this blows. I don't know where the fault is. Running cleanrom 4.0.5 with its kernal. I don't believe I have really modified anything other than flashing the rom and a few zips here or there.
Normally it isn't a big deal but it really seemed to cause issues when syncing for the first time with dropbox yesterday. I had to keep restarting wifi. I think part of that was dropbox but 4 gb took literally hours to get done
I don't know if it happens on cleanrom 4.2.5

I am on CleanROM 4.5 right now and it behaves the same way. I did read on another thread that there is a possible fix by replacing the 'wifi' folder with the one from Android 4.1.1.
Here is the whole thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1956155&highlight=wifi+problem
I have performed the suggested fix and will monitor the issue when I go about my daily routines.
Any new info on whether your idea worked? I'm experiencing the same thing you guys are.
