I am running the latest cm10 nightly and I haven't been able to connect to 4g lte for the last week or two. Is anyone else having this problem? Has anyone found a solution?

Which market are you in? There's a chance that the tower was only on for testing and has since been turned off. There's also a chance that another tower closer to you is currently being upgraded, so the phone is trying to connect to that tower's LTE, getting rejected, and falling back to 3G. That's what's happening to me, and it's frustrating because I had a steady 4G signal for a week and a half, then one day, it refused to stay connected to 4G for longer than a minute. Now, I just have to wait for them to finish the new tower.
The reason could be just about anything depending on your market.
I am in the Atlanta market which has been officially announced. Friends that live nearby have not been having this problem on stock ux software. I was wondering if cm10 has a big or something?

Actually, it has a couple LTE bugs. CM10 doesn't currently handle 3G/4G handoffs properly, so that could be part of the issue, but it holds a 4G connection fine if the signal is strong enough, at least from my experience. Another bug is that it will just stop making connections, and you have to wipe data to fix it. Have you tried toggling airplane mode? If that doesn't work, make a nandroid and try a clean install of CM10. I had to do that recently because it completely stopped connecting to 4G and barely connected to 3G. As soon as I booted up, 4G was back (didn't last long, but I explained that in my other post). If wiping data doesn't work, flash to TW and see if the problem persists. If it still doesn't connect, then you may have a hardware issue, but I think that's unlikely since it was working for you before. You never know, though.
Keep in mind, even though Atlanta's been officially launched, it's only about one third complete, so lots of towers are still being upgraded. It's possible you're facing the second issue in my first post, like I am. If so, then just concentrate on how much better it'll be when the new tower is finished.

Happened to me several times. The best thing you can do is make a nandroid once you get your favorite AOSP rom set up to your liking, and restore to it once LTE stops working. I tried to get myself to go to TW but its just so slow
What is TW?

I have a similar issue. If i go into settings, about phone, and status I pick up LTE:13, but I get no connection or IP address so I have to change over to 3g. Is this a known issue, and if so is it being addressed? I am currently running nightly 10-14-2012 if it helps. Thanks
Edit: I've tried TW and it works just fine there. 14 down and 6 up.
Its likely to do with cm10. And the handoff issue like it was explained a few posts back. I love cm10 but data would work if u was lucky for 2 hours out of the whole day. So I'm on the leaked lih build. Just gotta wait patiently for the great devs to figure it out.

Is it me or do I seem to always have an issue with data and my phone. There are many times when I go to pick it up to use and the data, either 3G or 4G, is greyed out.
I've noticed it even if I switch my phone to CDMA only.
Any suggestions on how to fix it other than the obvious reboot or airplane mode?
Unfortunately, this might just be reception issues in your area. I have no LTE problems where I live.
That's what I'm thinking. The phone may just not know what mode to chose cause I'm in between the two.
I have to bump this thread. I'm sick of this. I can hardly ever send MMS messages when I'm on WiFi.
I'm not in a 4G area, that I know. I was successful in updating my PRL which I thought fixed my issue, but didn't.
It's not like I have no signal, 1 bar, -90dBm in my house. Even switching the phone to 3G only doesn't fix this. Rebooting is my only option, as turning on airplane mode doesn't help.
Does anyone else have issues connecting to data? I'm tempted to root, just to flash a new(er) radio, but I don't feel like restoring my phone.
Have you tried updating to the new radio?

I live in a spotty 4g area so its constantly switching from 3g to 4g and before it locks onto one signal it always does the stupid grey bar deal and sometimes it won't lock on at all even though I'm in a strong (3g) area. Restarting the phone works sometimes. All I know is that it better be fixed soon or this phone will be going back.

Yup, this is the issue I have. I can have strong 3G signal (all bars grey) but it just won't connect. Airplane mode sometimes fixes it, but I usually have to reboot the damn thing.

I'm often connected to Wimax 4G but there is no internet connection. I'm using the latest I27 modem. I've had this issue with previous modems as well. Is there an issue with the OS not renewing the IP address?

It can be a number of issue you can determine ONLY yourself. I'd flash back to a stock ROM of your choice, along with EL29 modem (my personal favorite). Try out the 4G connection and see if it works then. It can also just be that the 4G towers around you are down or not working properly. Give clearWire a call if you have concern.

I get that sometimes too. I like how everybody just told you go to a previous build when you clearly stated it was present in them too. When it happens to me I just disconnect and connect again. This also happened when I owned an og Evo and the og epic. This has been a issue since the beginning of wimax. It freezes and all u see is the download arrow continuously blinking and won't sleep.

No he said; " I've had this issue with previous modems as well".Keyboard is modem, not another ROM/build. Did you mean modem by build? I personally think he should call up sprint or clear. They will be able to tell him if there is issues in his area. Or its possible be lost his WiMax keys? I seen that issue on previous devices like evo 4g and evo 3D.

Ok true he did say modem so I take the builds part back. But in all honesty this has nothing to do with either. It happened on all my 4G Wimax phones. And I doubt there's a fix besides toggling 4G off and on. 4G Wimax always had this happen from time to time in my experience with other phones besides the E4GT.
Edit: also I've noticed it happens a lot when your 4G connection is only at one bar. So I guess coverage plays a role in it.

Could be that he is indeed under weak wimax signal or near the edge of it. He prob has his settings to connect above the -89dbm. So it connects but cant process it.
I think it's just wimax. I'm in Tyson's corner, VA on the Beltway heading towards Maryland. moving from a 3G network, connecting to a 4G Wimax but it's probably for about 20 seconds, then I'm probably on the edge of it. So it seems like it connects but never gets internet connection, unless I toggle the 4G button again.
For some reason lately I've been getting only Edge in my area when normally I get extremely solid H+. I don't know if my phone is acting up (completely stock on 4.1.2) or if AT&T may be upgrading their network in my area, possibly adding LTE. Any ideas why?

Let us know if it doesnt work. It happens. If youre getting it a lot. Thats not usual. Or if it happens in your house fron 4g down to edge. It could be an issue with your tower. Or location. Maybe the tower is overloaded and they kick you to another?

I'm forced to use HSPDA due to the LTE network being overloaded here in SoCal.
Funny thing is, with LTE on, I avg about 3down/10up....with HSPDA, I get roughly 6down/1up. Quite frankly, I care more about download than upload anyway so it's actually better for me
I have suddenly been having problems with my 3g. I look at the symbol in the status bar and it will upload but it will not download. It's almost like the code is stuck in a loop. It will randomly start to work again for awhile and then act up later. I have wiped dalvik, cache, and I even reflashed my ROM (FREE GS3). I updated profile and PRL. That was even a problem because I would get an error since it wouldn't download. Before I flash back to stock and call sprint, does anybody have any ideas? One other note. I have driven through LTE areas and both downloads and uploads work with no problem.

Try updating PRL and Profile then restart the phone? That may help, I mean if it does then you just saved like an hour of resetting and restoring. If it doesn't then you just wasted maybe 2 minutes.

Happens to me when I shut off data for any length of time....I just reboot...and it works fine
I called Sprint and they couldn't fix it. I switched the network mode to CDMA from CDMA/LTE and it worked flawlessly. I don't know what that means but something told me my LTE and 3G weren't playing nicely. Whenever I go through a 4G area, it works to perfection. Then I get back in a 3G area and back to the same old thing.
I forgot to mention I flashed to stock unrooted and it seemed to function better but the problem still existed.

I have the same problem I have no idea what to do. I have a custom ROM the only way I get it to work is when I toggle Data on and off really fast. I didn't try the CDMA only though. Either way it's no excuse why our phone's are acting like this.
There was a DATA_HANDOFF.ZIP floating around somewhere....it was made for AOSP but if you make a backup and flash it, it might do some good

it switched fine initially. showed 3g in status bar, sent SMS. started a call.
once the preferred network changes, anything but LTE kills the radio. "Emergency Calls Only" is what the status is in the quicktiles. With a blank radio signal indicator.

so i can go into the *#*#4636#*#* menu via the dialer and change the radio mode to EvDO only and get 3g and can make calls and send SMS. If I choose CDMA/LTE it transitions to the LTE network then ****s the bed and won't send SMS or make phone calls. It does send MMS and have fully functioning data on LTE. However, then its just a tablet.
I'm going to wipe and reflash again, as I did mess with a whole bunch of crap now and see if I can get anything figured out.
Any ideas?
