I'm on Sprint using the latest official nightly. However, I am unable to get my mobile data to work. I am using the EI22 radio. I've also verified that the Sprint APN is present. Out of desperation, I even tried to flash the alternate carrier data fix to no avail. Can anyone offer me some hope or suggestions?

When you go into "About phone" does it show the correct baseband version, or does it show "unknown"? More than once my phone has lost the modem when flashing a nightly. When that happens I haven't had much luck flashing a modem. I've had to re-install the modem using Odin. I downloaded the appropriate modem from this link: http://www.nubecoder.com/files/android/SPH-D700/modem/
Stock setup on CM10 is with the FC09 modem.
Hope this helps.

This is my first post. Whenever i try to flash a sprint version of any rom on my gs3 from boost my LTE doesn't work. The only way my data will work is if i switch it to CDMA which means no 4g. I even tried dialing ##72786# to reset my data connection but that didn't work either. Does anyone know of a solution to this?

I finally tried something that I never did before. Before flashing the rom I wiped my dalvik and cache partition. When I did that everything worked fine. 3g and 4g is working. I'm currently on the peoples rom Thanks for the help.

I was wondering did you flash stock Sprint rom first? Also did you have to do the MMS fix? I am trying to flash a custom rom for my mothers new S3 but I am not really too sure about it since it is on Boost. If I wanted to flash back to stock, would I just use the stock Sprint firmware again? Did you flash 4.3 or an earlier version? I heard that the new 4.3 update has the Knox built in like the newer devices but not too sure if what I read was correct

That's correct. If your data doesn't work you'll have to change your APN settings since most of these ROMs are for the sprint s3 and not the boost mobile. I flash ROMs a lot and sometimes the data work so I won't have to change my APN. If you need help with that I can help

thanks very much for your reply, you are the right person ive been looking for about a month now. i have downloaded a sprint stock rom JB 4.3 from sammobile for which id be flashing to my new boost mobile s3.
the essence here is am in Ghana with this device and obviously i have to change carrier because i cant have boost service here. My phone is still fresh in box and locked for that matter (only upgraded to JB 4.3 OTA). I would just like to unlock it for NAM configuration any help? Do i realy need to flash a sprint rom first?
version (*#1234#)
AP: L710VPUBMK5
CP: L710VPUBMK5
CSC: L710SPTBMK5
PLS HELP ME UNLOCK THIS DEVICE
I really don't know how to unlock a phone but I wouldn't mess with your phone since you did the OTA update to get 4.3. You have Knox now and that's bad to have. You can mess your phone up and void your warranty if you do anything with that knox

I can not figure out how to get my radio to work with VirginROM v2.5.5. I have looked through the development thread for this rom, and have not found any info about people having no network connectivity. What I have found were posts about intermittent LTE issues, which have not solved my issue of connecting to tmobiles network.
This is what I have done:
1. I installed VirginROM 2.5.5 with an older version of CWM.
2. I updated CWM to 6.0.4.4 and installed the rom, which did not work.
3. A friend had a similar network issue with his Note 2 and a kit kat rom. He told me to reinstall the rom again after the initial install, but this did not solve my network connectivity issue.
4. I installed previous versions of virgin rom and then updated to 2.5.5, and I still cannot connect to tmobile.
You need to ODIN flash the mk2 modem.bin file. Search in XDA or the thread to find it.
Sent from my GT-I9505G using Tapatalk
You must flash the modem if you are having any issues otherwise it is pointless for anyone at XDA to help you out since this is a remedy to a widely known problem. Try it first and report back if it persists.
For the hell of it, check your APN settings.

I personally flashed the Mk2 modem via odin. wouldn't hurt to check the modem settings on your phone either.

What are the appropriate settings??? Excuse the noob question...
I use the Sprint SlimBean ROM and I had no issues with it on my SCH-S960L. I had no issues with my mobile connection except for the fact that it it took some time to connect to mobile data services or even required a restart or Airplane mode toggled. This along with it sometimes did not switch between 3G and LTE when it should. Because of this I attempted to flash a newer Sprint Galaxy S3 modem. This completely disestablished any connection to services. It has 0 bars and cannot make calls, send texts, or use data. I have tried to reflash the ROM but of course, it did not help at all.
Now in the light of hope, I made a backup of the efs and firmware folders before flashing. I'm not sure how I can fix my issue with this but it was suggested to do so before flashing.
My baseband version was S960LWYAMD6. While I could reflash the old modem, (with help) I would prefer a better modem. (if there are any)
Any help is appreciated.
With best regards,
SirBenjamin
Well this just may be your day. Apparently chxnugs just posted the Modem for your particular device HERE. I would update PRL / Profile first just to see if that will help. Also have you tried ##72786# ?

i know this is sprint galaxy s3 section, but the straight talk s3 is basically the same phone and there is no section for it.
if you own this particular model, then you would know that its pure hell trying to find ANY files. this is the stock MD6 modem.bin ripped from my phone. ive seen people ask for this modem because they flashed the MD4 modem in hopes of getting their MSL and/or for the benefits of being able to use the 16-digit password. (which reminds me.. i have read of ways to port the 16-digit password from a .dll file in the phone? i have done loads of searching, but the password is NO WHERE to be found) and needed the stock modem. so for anyone that needs it here it is.
hopefully us ST S3 users will eventually gather up all the odin files to completely restore our phones when needed

I tried to flash the file chxnugs provided. I used both Mobile Odin and replaced the modem file in another flashable ZIP. Neither of them worked and I still get 0 bars/unknown baseband.
Honestly I have no idea what to do to fix this but it needs to work.
Again I say, all help is appreciated.
ok i extracted a fresh modem.bin straight from my phone. let me know if it works

Proby, I tried to do the other things you suggested. I can't update the PRL/Profile since I'm on a custom ROM. That is unless there is another way. I did not understand what you meant with the number you mentioned. If you wanted me to call that it did nothing.
As for chx, unfortunately it still did not fix it. This quick little modem update is turning into a nightmare. Not only that, but no sound plays, the microphone does not work, and DSP Manager crashes whenever I try to play media.
I really appreciate both of your support though.
Yay! I used Mobile Odin Pro and flashed a file from another thread. It may have been the file or using Mobile Odin Pro since it downloaded the correct driver. I appreciate all of your help, though.

I flashed Truelyclean (link above), a script that removes samsung bloatware but after, my phone would not connect to my carrier's 4G network anymore. I flashed the correct stock 4.4.2 firmware for Wind Mobile from Sammobile, did a factory reset, made sure network mode was set to LTE/WCDMA/GSM but it still would not connect to 4G. It only connects to 3G and HSPA+ which is less reliable on Wind's network.
Does anybody have a fix for this?

Thanks for leading me in the right direction. I flashed some M919 and other modems and it failed, so I checked if there was any modem files in the official firmware and they were there. I thought pressing phone would only flash the modem but it ended up re-flashing the whole thing but it works now. Thank you.

Well you're problem was solved, even if it was by accident. To flash a modem you need the actual modem file or you have to extract it from the firmware. The main thing is that your up and running.
You need to do back ups before you try flashing stuff, especially old unsupported mods, so you can flash back to a running state.

I don't know if the OP will reply to this, but I have the same problem as they described, and this did not solve it for me. Replaced my apns-conf.xml with the one Doc posted, and still have no APN's listed. I tried to enter the information for one in, but it won't save.
In my case, I went from CM11 M10 to CM11 M11. (I tried an in-place update using the CM Updater, and I tried a factory reset, etc. Both end up at the same place. ROM boots, but no data service. Says I have a couple bars of service, but no data.) CM10 works just fine, and I can always restore back to M10. Any other thoughts? edit: Almost forgot...When I did a factory reset, it told me to insert my SIM, following the MFG instructions when I booted into freshly installed CM11 M11. I don't want to hijack someone else's thread, and can create my own, if that would be better.
Let me know if you guys need any other information from me. Thanks.
The OP solved the issue by installing CM10.2.

Ah, I didn't see that he started that other thread. Thing is, I'm having the same problem.
I've been using CM11 for quite awhile on this phone. Using it right now, in fact...the M10 release. Couple days ago, they came out with the M11 release, and when I install it, now I get no APN's and can't connect to data networks.
Would the bootloader/modem issue affect from M10 to M11 release? I have attached a current screenshot of my About Phone screen showing what version of CM11 I'm running which is working fine. All I do is install the latest milestone and suddenly no data connection.
I believe you need at least a 4.3 bootloader to work with the unified d2lte msm8960 builds. Your phone is running a 4.1.1 modem and, most likely, a 4.1.1 bootloader.
Have a look at the your current ROM's updater script to see if the bootloader is supported by the ROM. Even if you see the bootloader in the updater script, that doesn't mean you'll automatically have data capabilities.
Weird that it wouldn't work from one milestone to another on CM11. I've been using the unified d2lte builds since at least M10 just fine with perfect data capabilities. I'll look at what bootloader I'm running.
Your baseband is LK3 so I would assume you're running an LK3 bootloader too. Is your phone sim unlocked?

Confirmed LK3 bootloader, as well. SIM is not unlocked.
I'm currently using my Search Fu to try and find bootloader flashing information. Obviously I'm running an older bootloader and modem, but I just find it weird that it worked until the latest milestone. I'll keep searching. Thanks for the direction!
Before updating your bootloader and modem, why not flash back to stock 4.1.1 and sim unlock your phone for free using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2529200?
The unlock is permanent even after updating bootloaders, ROMs, and modem.

I'll consider that. At my work computer, so can't install Odin at the moment. I may do that this weekend. For the moment, I'll stay on M10. For others who may be experiencing this, apparently, there are some people who are experiencing M10 to M11 problems like what I describe. The solution is to update your bootloader and modem to MJB: https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-5572
