Simultaneous voice and data problem - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I'm running CM 10 on my AT&T S3. I'm in an LTE area and have LTE coverage. I also would have strong HSPA coverage as well.
My issue is, when I'm on a call, I have no internet connection. There is no 4G/H/3G icon at all by the signal bars (which are full). And when I try to go to a page it says No connection.
Is this an issue with CM10? Anyway I can fix this? I can't seem to remember if the issue was present on stock.

Same here. It worked on stock att

[LTE] Grey data connectivity

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?

Whoops! That's what I get for opening up threads in multiple tabs. I replied to the wrong thread.
Haven't tried a new radio, still would have to root it.
As for the wifi sleep policy, it's set to always. I dunno...

Yeah, that was my bad. I had multiple tabs open with different threads and posted in the wrong one.
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.

We have 4G here in town, but I live on the outer city limits. When I get closer to town I get 4G.
I know where I live sometimes I need to reboot my phone for it to change successfully from 3g to 4g... Another thing people suggest is toggling airplane mode on and off to make it pick up signal

I thought about taking it in and replacing it.... I don't have any reception issues, just this issue with the phone not wanting to get on data about 50% of the time.

Data keeps switching between 3g and H+

Ever since I flashed my phone with the wicked rom .. my data has been do constantly switching between 3g and h+... I have my network type set to wcdma only and I have a strong signal but it still drops down to 3g
Before when I was on the stock rom it never did that.. I even had my network type set to wcdma preferred ..
Anyone having the same issue ?

That's completely normal. It only shows h when your data is fully active. Its a good thing. The only difference is now your phone is telling you the truth.

Oh is it normal ? I didn't know since on the stock rom it never did that ,always displayed 4g.
But what would it drop to 3g if I have a strong signal always
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Yeah dude. T-Mobile does that they call their hspa+ 4G. Technically anything that is not 3g is considered 4G. The reason you are seeing this on your new rom is because the stock tmobile rom will only display you in 2G or E for edge. Or 4G for 3G and HSPA+ otherwise known as 4G. The majority of customer roms will tell you what you are currently on.

flashed to cm9 alpha 6, get grey 3g bars no data

When I was on stock I was always on 3g. Now that I flashed to cm9a6, I've been waking up to my phone with grey 3g bars. I flip to airplane mode and back to fix it and finally get my emails but its a real pain in the ass.
I looked into it, but saw posts from march, wondering if anyone had a fix or if this is just a bug.

Mobile data not working

has anyone had the issue where their phone won't connect back to 3g data?
when I reboot my phone 3g will work until wifi kicks in. after I turn wifi off 3g comes back, I can call and text but will not download any data.
I have tried Odin back to stock. wiped everything including recovery. I have tried flashing every combination of modems and kernels. all same.
however one thing I will note. I have not been able to get a successful modem flashed in Odin. it keeps failing. so I flash in twrp.
I also wiped the activation data via ##732# or something like that. had sprint reactivate my phone too..
perhaps someone could shed some light on this?

I just got my Note 2 like 5 days ago and mine does the same thing. Its very annoying and its gonna be exchanged today for that and other reasons.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
hmm. I wonder if it's network related..
is your phone stock?
-Wizzle
Okay here is the skinny. It is network related. My wife's stock s3 does the same thing. If you are in an area without lte and your phone under mobile settings is selected to lte/evdo/cdma it will connect to ephrd13. Which is enhanced 3g. When you come off wifi or a phone call sometime it will not reconnect. You can toggle data a few times and it will reconnect.
To solve this issue, under mobile settings I select evdo only setting being that I do not have lte in my area. There is no change in speed between the 2 3g networks.
This info is from self diagnosing the rooted note 2, a stock photon, and a stock s3.
I have had sprint reset the phones as well as the ##data# trick.

yeah I did the ## thing. however it came back. so someone from sprint called me to see if Iwas happy with the support and I told them I was still having data issues. He told me that he would put my ticket in priority and after an hour everything has been working better so far...
but we'll see

When I say evdo only I meant cdma only. Ehrpd13 is the handshaking 3g for lte. Some areas have lte in the towers but no ehrpd13 so the lte is not turned on yet. Basically ehrpd13 and lte are like cookies and cream lol.

The problem is my area does have it but at my house its very weak. My ohone wikl display 4g but it wont download anything untio it switches to 3g.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
When the 4g network matures as it will the 4g will get better as the 3g.
You can always go to I think s4gru.com. That site shows when and where lte will become available. Plus they will be able to help you better there than xda.
As for sprint customer service, they are laughable at best. 4 people I spoke with didn't know what ehrpd13 was lol.

My data is horrible recently!

At home my data is usually always 7mbps-15mbps.. This past week it's been horrible at home. At about 40kbps...
At work and everywhere else it's fine, but once I get home it's horrible! Even 2 miles away from my house, it's fine.
I called tmobile and they filed a ticket to look into the tower but could take up to 10 days.
Anyone have any ideas?

Depending on where u live ur tower by ur house can be old and not updated so it slower or it can be a borrowed tower. The one by ur job must be in a city which they update first. For me the new lte modem sucks I went back to the old modem. It is more reliable.

I get horrible speeds as well and always have. I live in in a crowded area....Brooklyn, New York
Also, it's not like I'm underground or hidden from the outside world, I'm sitting right next to a window in a 6 story building. I've honestly had enough of t-mobile.. they always mess up my contract and have such ****ty speeds in my area. Not to mention, they directly lie to you over the phone and barely keep any promises. Oh and New York being one of the biggest cities isn't even one of the LTE cities that was upgraded. Sorry for this rant but I'm just kinda pissed with TMO.
Does anyone know if I can somehow check if my phone is set on the right antenna?

Yes a big difference. I mostly use WiFi tho when out cause I have WiFi hot spots every place by me. But the lte modem is use less by me till lte is around here.
Use the old apn if you're having issues. There's already a thread on this. Search for it.
I have a feeling the new apn is speed limited so when lte fully rolls out the hspa network isn't overloaded. Most people don't notice a difference between 8mbps and 11mbps. Which was my difference. But if your difference is between 3-5mbps and 55kbps then it's probably a tower issue as well.

I'm thinking a tower issue, but I guess it's not? Tmobile contacted me today saying the towers around my area look good. So, there going to recheck since I get great data speeds everywhere else

Believe it or not but a easy way would be to root and then revert back to stock 4.1.1. It will get u back to normal u will just have to not update till they fix all the bugs
If you're in a refarmed market just manually select the 1900 band as AWS might be too crowded. I have to do the same when I'm at my house as on AWS I get 500kbps while on 1900 I get no less than 12mbps

Yes. Because we don't change the modem, just switch back and forth apn if in the are have lte tower just switch to lte apn (the original one).
