I am having a reoccurring problem. Sometimes, when I flash a new nightly, or even just reboot my phone, I get no data. Even when I turn on wifi, it connects but stays gray instead of turning blue or teal. Same thing for my 3G. I have full bars, but it stays gray. Best way I have been dealing with it if wiping cache and reloading the rom.
I have tried going in and out of airplane mode, rebooting the phone, letting it sit for hours. I would just like to know if I'm doing something wrong.
By the way I am running CM10.
All in all, it's a small price to pay to run such a slick rom. And now that I got dual boot all figured out......much easier to try things out.

Did you do a clean flash?
Did u use the sprint cm10?
Does this happen on tw ROMs?

I wiped everything except for data.
On sprint cm10
Does not do it on a tw ROM I have
So this is what you did
Was on random tw ROM>wiped cache and dalvic> flashed cm10
If so your only hope really is to wipe everything and reflasb

I finally figured it out. The problem seemed to be with my clock settings. I can replicate the problem by setting my clock ahead and reboot. Then I will not connect. I figured out it was a Google account sign in issue. If I then reset my clock to the correct time and reboot, no problems.
Just had a question about dual boot. Was it easy to setup? How hard is it to go back to single boot? I would imagine having two roms would take up a ton of space.

I was running Paul's custom ROM for the past week or so. I plugged my phone in to a portable charger because the battery was low. This is not the first time I have used this charger on this phone. After a few minutes the phone rebooted. I found this odd so I tried to figure out what was going on. I unlocked the device and went into settings....phone rebooted again. I tried reflashing the MoDaCo ROM, reflashing the original ROM and resetting the device. It still does it. Im still new to Android platform (moving away from a shameful iPhone) so Im lost on what the problem could be. Any ideas?
did you undervolt and tick set on boot without testing voltages?

No. I didn't change any of that. My phone is unusable
I think one of my apps is causing it. Is that possible even though I'm not running the app?
I have no idea. I think youre leaving out something.

After i restore to factory everything works fine. It starts again (doesn't matter which ROM I'm using) when Google syncs the apps I've downloaded to the phone. It's stable right now until I figure out what the hell is going on.
I would say app but you said you wiped everything..

Right. It works fine until Google starts to sync my data from my account. Is there a way to pinpoint which app is causing the damage?
Nevermind. It does it anyway. Hardware issue? Overheating issue?

My GN every time I boot says, Android is Upgrading, start applications, what do this means???
Im still on 4.0.1 ics..
Any advice please
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
This is normal. Your phone is not updating its building app cache or something.
Search is your friend.
Question is though... Why is it always rebuilding?
Is it still completely stock from Day 1 of purchase?
Have you rooted it? If so, what method?
Have you installed any apps?
Have you tried doing a factory reset? (Ensure you back up your data)
The phone is purelly stock
I havent done nothing except using it and installing apps...the regular as an every day phone...i got since sunday
Should I factory reset?
Thanks

mine does it to. its normal
I can tell you its not normal for it to happen on every single boot! It's probably an app that is causing issues with the os. Try and remember what you recently installed and uninstall a couple apps to try and narrow it down. This happened to me when I installed Wallet.
mine has done it since i powered it on out of the box the very 1st time. so i'd say its normal
I wonder why its doing it then? If on my device it only does it when system files are being played with but on others on every boot?
Happens for me too, only noticed it since upgrading to 4.01 (stock)
Okay, so i had the balck galaxy s 2 and it never had this problem, but i just got my white galaxy s 2 and every time i reboot, it freezes, and then comes up saying that power manager has crashed. Then nothing works, so i reboot and it does the same thing. I figured there was something wrong with the system, so i rooted and installed the Dewizzed rom, after 3-4 minutes of using it, it freezes, turns black, and then goes to the lock screen and it lost all conections to t-mobile/wifi. changed the rom to the juggernaut and the same thing happened.
Can anyone help? I don't know why this is happening. Never happened with my balck SGS2
probably just a faulty device dude.... return and get another is what I would do

Did you try factory reset? Wipe all data and cache before you flash a different rom?
I agree with the secobd person that posted an answer but theres another solution to it.... just get into download mode im sure you know how to do that... and use odin and flash back to stock... stock rom... that should fix everything.. thats what i do everytime something goes wrong with my fone...
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
There were problems on stock too. Plus for some reason, stock had a terrible lag. I gues if it doesnt resolve itself i will have to do another exchange (this is my 4th exchange) hopefully with mwc next month, t-mobile will get a few new phones and i will be able to get a working device . Anyways thanks for the help

Whoa Kimosabe! You need to give us more info. I can guarantee you this has nothing to do with tasks ROM. First off did you do a clean install? That's the first thing you should do. What provider are you with? What radio? Give as much info as you possibly can. I'm pretty sure that your problem should go away after a thorough wipe and a clean install.

Do a full wipe and reinstall. This includes format/system. Until you do that, you really don't know if the problem is a bad install or dirty flash.
If that doesn't work, switch modems. My money is on a full wipe/reinstall fixing it though as everyone else is up and running on 4G with no issues.

Read that. It should set you on your way.
Sorry to tell you that but, it happen to me before when I was running on Task's rom and there is nothing to do with the rom. It is your S3 need to get back to stock. I did was put my S3 back to stock by using odin and then immediately, 4G LTE start to kick in and working. After few mins, you can root and flash back to task's rom. Hope this help!
no matter which aosp rom i use i have a issue where i totally lose data connectivity and it won't come back on. I have bars but no data it's like i toggled data off but can still get text and calls. the only thing that brings data back is a factory reset. I travel alot driving from city to city ( work for the railroad) so i go through diffrent bands while traveling it seems that while switch it like forgets to go to the next band sometimes. This doesn't happen all the time but it happens enough to warrant this post. when i try to toggle on and off with the pull down menu it still says att in the toggle box even though there is no data symbol by the bars in the notification bar. when i try to toggle the "att" in the toggle box never goes away.... when i go to the settings and toggle it that way it indicates off and on but still is off.
my question is this wheni go to titanium back up is there a program i can wipe data on to reset my connection?? since a factory reset cures the issue then i'm sure wiping whatever program that is hanging will cure the issue also so i don't have to keep factory resetting
this is a issue it no matter what aosp based rom i'm on.......cm10 aokp orca rom toolbox all of them i'm tried all and they all do it.
same issue
Have the exact same problem

I actually never had that issue. How are you flashing these ROMS? What I mean by that is, what are you doing in recovery when before you flash the ROM?

I have been flashing ROMS since my Sony Ericsson Xperia X10a days and have always flashed ROMS since. Here is the way I have done it.
Boot recovery
Wipe data
Wipe cache
Wipe dalvik cache
Flash Rom
Reboot phone
I repeat, I never had an issue when doing this. I have done this way since and it has always worked.

Seriously? No one has mentioned checking your APN settings? A incorrectly configured APN would cause your phone not to connect to the data network but still receive calls or texts.
Can you still receive or send MMS messages?

ok so here's what i did i backed up everything apps and data a reloaded the rom after the usual wipes. data was working then i restored the settings and the data was gone again. wiped and installed again just restored apps and the data is there.
I know this issue isn't widely reported on but it's probably because there aren't many people that re driving out in the boonies like i do when headed to work and back. i'm sure if i was on a flight it would be different. but its a obvious issue with this device. it has happened on a couple of them for me. but only on aosp roms and not tw based roms

So you got it to work by not restoring app+data and just the apps instead ?
Like most have always said never restore with data or system apps. Push them to system yourself and honestly I don't even use titanium backup anymore... just install again but I only install 15-20 apps at most.
