Telus S3 having 4G issues with last few builds. - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Hey guys, tried to do my reading and research before making a thread - so I hope this isn't answered somewhere obvious but if so I apologize beforehand.
I have a Galaxy S3 i747 on Telus Mobility in Alberta, Canada. I was an affluent iPhone junkie, but this was my first foray into Android. Love it. I successfully rooted the stock firmware, got clockwork installed and then decided I wanted to move into a custom rom.
I got the 11/27 Nightly installed no problems and had no issues. Upon updating to the 12/27, everything went smoothly except I couldn't get 4G connectivity at home. I usually can have 4G at home, no questions asked. Upon updating, back to 3G only.
Checked APN Settings
Ensured Preferred network
Enabled Mobile Data
I went to a city about an hour away and intermittently, the phone grabbed 4G. It would switch over, let me connect at full speed then switch back to 3G. Upon returning home, back to 3G. Again, normally I NEVER see 3G, always atleast 4, then LTE when I go to Edmonton.
Anyone have any ideas?? Love CMOD and don't really wanna flash back to stock.
Thanks guys, this place is a wealth of information and a joy to read.

Root Tethering issue

Hi all,
I am new here. At least to the posting and all that. I have been flashing and trying to learn more over the past couple months, and this site has been what has taught me all, so I decided to sign up.
I am running into an issue right now with tethering and I was kinda just wondering if it was normal or am I experiencing something different.
When I am connected via 4g and tethering to a laptop, I can surf just fine, and do other misc. things to get me by, but when I start to download anything, my download speeds are HORRIBLE.
I can run speedtests ALL over the country, and it will be anywhere from 4-6mbps with a 1-2mbps upload. But, when I am downloading ANYTHING, I will get max maybe 100KBps. I just wanted to know if there is a cap on it or something that I can bypass or is this just normal for the way it is.
I am running [KingsROM][Alliance ROM] [Version r6.2] [Sense 2.0] 2.1+3.0 with all updated radio, wimax, prl, ect ect.
Sorry if this is the wrong section or anything, like I said I am completely new to posting ANYWHERE on ANY forum... but this seems like a good place to start.
Thanks in advance!

[Q] Radio issue! Please HELP!!!!

Im sure this has been out there somewhere but i have been unable to find something, Im running NexusEvolution 3.0.0 ROM and just upgraded my radio to FF02/FG02. problem is i keep dropping calls, have even before upgrading thats why i upgraded in hopes to fix it. Any ideas what is going on? this is seriously driving me crazy. doesnt matter where i am or who im talking to. When it happens i will look at the signal and its usually down to 1/2 grey bars ( no 3g/4g) or no bars at all then it will jump back up. Please help me figure this out. Thanks.
flash a different radio.
This is the second one what other one would i flash, should be the most up to date one i thought.

Don't tamper with the radio then.
Re-flash the original radio and then go to your dialer and type *#*#4636#*#*.
Go to Phone Information and change the type of signal to whatever you enjoy.
GSM = WCDMA only
CDMA = LTE Only or w.e

Speakerphone/ BT phone audio issues

Cannot find a solution to my problem, so finally throwing in the towel. If this is not posted in the right section, please let me know.
I have a US cellular SCH-R760. Was having issues with it (ended up just being bad battery) and decided to start trying custom roms so I could upgrade to JB. Obviously isn't available yet for the USC version, so using the E4GT roms. I am currently running Slim Bean and love it. Have also tried Jellybam and Wild for the Night, and have had the same issue on every one: speakerphone not working at all. The speaker itself works fine for media, but if I try to put a call on speakerphone, I get absolutely nothing. Same for phone Bluetooth audio. Media Bluetooth works fine, but nothing for the phone.

Actually, there is a US Cellular page where, as I read earlier on these forums, they port E4GT roms all the time. You should fine your device there.

Page Plus Epic 4g data stopped working?

My girlfriend got a PPC flashed epic4g about 6mo ago or so from the mall here locally.... everything worked except mms, which after following the instructions on howardforums, I got that issue solved... Well yesterday she couldn't download mms and nothing I tried would work... I held home to see the list of recent apps and the settings were open... so I looked and the update prl/ profile screen under settings was open... I'm assuming she tried to update the PRL or Profile but now NO DATA will work... She's still getting text and data but under roaming(also why I'm assuming the PRL was effed with) .... So the basic jist of it is ... no data now of any kind.... it will intermittently show the 3g symbol and the connection state says connected or gets stuck on connecting with no 3g symbol.... Does the PRL have anything to do with data working? I know you can't get 3g without a donor phone and temporary cloning but data no longer works at all not even 1x... can you help? I'm at the library for lack of internet at home so the quicker the better lol

The symptom is similar to what I get when I forgot to flash the CM9 Alternative Data Fix in the Dev forum stickies. Try it maybe.

[Q] CM nightlies - no cell data

Noob post incoming. I did my best to search around and didn't find much. Hate creating a new thread but was locked out from posting in CM dev thread for obvious reasons. Not too experienced in the world of root, so forgive my ignorance. This will hopefully be a quick question:
I've tried running the CM nightlies for the last two days on my T-Mobile M8, and the only big problem is a complete lack of cell data. It displays that I have bars, and while it cuts in and out often (which I expect), I can't get a drop of data to go through. Even at full bars.
I've seen a few people mention connection issues, but didn't see anyone saying anything about a complete lack of cell data. I'd normally just chalk it up to being a nightly build issue, but since I can't find it mentioned elsewhere, I'm wondering if maybe I'm just doing something wrong. If not, no worries, but I'd be stoked if I can run it as a daily at the moment.
Anyone have any advice on what I might be doing wrong, or how I can resolve it?
Edit:
Chrome itself displays error that "Wi-Fi and mobile data are turned off" when only wifi is turned off.
I just tested calling and SMS and both are working with Wi-Fi off. So obviously I'm maintaining some type of radio connection.
Thanks a ton in advance!
New nightly. Same problems.
Bump.
@thefunkyprimer
I just got your PM. Unfortunately I know nothing about T-Mobile and/or why you would be having the issues. What have you tried? Switching APNs? Switching from 3G to 4G? I also haven't run CM longer than five minutes in a couple years. So I'm not much use in terms of running it personally.
Try my ROM and see if data works for you. That's pretty much all I got for you at the moment. But if you did try my ROM and data works, that might be a starting point. Make sure to fully wipe your device prior to flashing.
