No matter what I do I cannot get 4g WiMAX to turn on. When i press the toggle it lights up for about 5-10 seconds then just goes back off. Never however does it scan and the icon up top never appears.
What can be wrong here? What can i do?
Everything else is working fine. I have tried flashing new modems, flashing new roms, odin tars for EL26, EL29, did a nandroid restore from a time when it was working, updated profile + prl multiple times. I just continue to get the same result.
Any help with this is much appreciated.
Happened to me also on a bad jb flash.
To fix this, flash it back to an Orginal el29 gb rom.
I recommend the caulkalin el29 rom

Odin back to Unrooted EL29 STOCK Rom + EL29 Modem.
If it doesnt work Stock, take it to Sprint and let them deal with the headache.
I would try clearing the Wimax CT back to default values under ##DEBUG#
There's two options. One clears the extensions to default which are the settings under the ##3282# Wimax setting people usually tweak with. And the other option resets the options on that Wimax CT screen. Forget which is which. Both options are at the bottom ODB Load Default and Load Default. Try doing both.

Thank you for your reply.
This is getting interesting...I did as you said and in the WiMax CT screen there are no values for anything...everything is blank. Not only that but both of the options for ODB Load Default and Load Default are darkened/grayed out and cannot be clicked.
Any additional help is much appreciated.

My apologies I guess I should've told you too click on the open device at the top. Thought it was self explanatory guess not lol. Once you do that numbers will fill the blanks and then you can click on the other options at the bottom to reset everything..

Where you playing around with any of the Wimax settings or did it just randomly happen? Go into Wimax extensions and start playing with the values switching them to a different value. But honestly it sounds like your Wimax chip is a goner.

I appreciate you taking the time Ray. I'll give that a shot. I wasn't messing with the settings at all, it just all of a sudden happened. I had flashed some different ROMs and was on Calkulins EL29 Rom when I noticed the issue.
I ended up asking a question in that thread about whether there was a 4g icon at the top when it was scanning because I never saw it. That's when I realized things were not right

Sorry if this question has been answered already, but I've been searching for days and can't find a solution. I flashed cm9 beta0 coming from stock el30 multiple times and wifi won't work at all. I click on the wifi icon and it lights up, but nothing else pops up. Is there a way to fix this? Just to clarify, I don't mean the wifi hotspot, I mean wifi as in using my home internet connection on my phone.
Go into settings and wifi and click the left side and go to settings and set it to connect to your wifi. You may need to reset your router.

The stock rom lies .. or rather smudges the truth a little by showing a 4g (or H) even when your not really on that band. If your data speeds have not changed then I'd not worry about it.

Tmo is edge or 3g. A very fast 3g they call 4g.
Download battery monitor widget. Add the widget. Click the widget. Select tests from the menu on the bottom. Select device information. Scroll down and you can set radio preferences. Back out using the back button and it will save your setting.

Just curious... What rom did you flash after jellybean update? I plan on playing around with some of the custom roms tomorrow.
Infamous. I dirty flashed it so that may have been why the radio would not stick but, I'm not sure. Wicked is a nice ICS ROM. I have tried a few of wild's ROMs too. They were good. Haven't tried many others.

Is it just me? After rooting and cwming my phone my system default time is always in the 1970's so it messes up the cwm back ups and things. If you have your phone on airplane mode and reboot it won't grab the time from the network so that how you can check. I only noticed it when I brought in cwm. I've tried different versions of cwm never gotten it fixed though. Oh I'm always aosp, Rom/kernel makes no difference
Can anybody confirm this? Or share any fixes?

Hey look, for a while now I have been using the script and app here.
It's called oNandroid.
- perform backups without rebooting.
- manage stored backups and the dates are correct.
- If you ever need to restore, reboot to CWM.
- It's super convenient and works perfect for me.
Problem solved...and a bag of chips!
(lots of options. Can be used with the GUI or with any script app)
Enjoy
I read something koush posted in Google+ a while back. It has to do with the way the chip set is programmed it doesn't communicate the way it's supposed to to update the date stored on the chip. I guess if you turn on airplane mode and then reboot it will default to the same date. If you pay attention every time you boot the phone it polls the server for date and time.

I figured it was something funky more or less hardware related. Are you saying there's not much hope it can be easily updated?
I can totally live with it, it's really not a big deal.
Besides sometimes it's fun to send people text messages with a 1970's date stamped on it.

I experienced the problem of no data connection after flashing a new rom on my Optimus G. The phone needs to be reprogrammed, updating your PRL and Profile will NOT help. You must dial ##72786# this will start the handsfree activation and your phone will reboot a few times. It may take a few seconds in between steps of the activation and it will seem like nothing is happening. Just be patient and wait for everything to complete. When it is finished your phone's data connection will be working properly.

Some history,
I've been running Imperium and stockishv1 and v2 for a few days. I've made a couple backups along the way. About an hour ago I lost data. The phone works and makes calls, but my data is dead.
I've tried update profile and prl, and all I get is" Network error" I've tried this many times throughout all these steps.
I've restored backups, pre-Imperium and Stockishv1 with the same results.
I tried the procedure in this thread and still nothing.
Anybody have any other ideas? Would LGNPST restore the phones modem?

I killed the connection optimizer while I was at work because I can't use work's wifi and listen to my icecast station I setup.
This killed my data connection and immediately put my phone into roaming. I rebooted like three times and finally my data came back (i also updated the PRL and the Profile, not sure which fixed it but something did)
From the things you guys speak of, I would guess the same issue is at hand.

Try the G2 thread, I'm sure if you post in the exact same section over there you might have better results. General answer is that it is probably APN settings. Find an app, enter them, set it, and reboot (might not need to reboot).
