I am using GalaxyMod for my sprint galaxy s3 and I've tried every version of the rom but I don't have working data on any of them. All other roms I flash have data. Unfortunately I really like this rom and I really want to use it as my daily driver but I can't unless I can fix the data problem. Can someone help me please?
Not sure why this is in themes and apps, but i would go to that rom thread and ask the question. Try dialing ##DATA# on the dial pad, itll reset the radios.
Sent from a planet far far away.
Set the phones mobile data to CDMA only and reboot, then use Speedin07si's method to reset the radio, once done reboot again.
Most ROMs i tried usually has data not working when its set to CDMA/EvDO/LTE. And also.
Search the Q&A forum regarding issue's others had on that ROM, if you cant find the problem others have that you have.
Look for it under the ROM thread. If it isn't there either THEN post in the Q&A Section.
Hopefully a moderator can move this thread so you don't have to make a new one.

I searched around for a fix, but nothing I have tried so far has worked.
I am running CM A3, FD19 Modem, and the FD19 kernel. The ROM runs like a dream; much better than I was expecting. There are, however, a couple of major issues I am having.
The dialer codes are screwed (such as *#*#8778#*#* and *#*#INFO#*#*), stopping me from doing any kind of service programming on my SPH-D710 (I flashed the phone from Sprint to MetroPCS.) That being said, I cannot get mobile data because I cannot edit any of the settings on the phone, including my APN (supposedly due to a mismatch with build.prop? That's what I dug up, at least.)
I would love to be able to continue using CM9, but I cannot be without mobile data. Any ideas?
I would have posted in the Dev section, but I am under my 10 posts.
Much thanks in advance!
So I flashed my nandroid backup...
I wiped the cache and performed a reset. I restored my nandroid backup of my previous setup using AnaKonda ROM v.1 using the FC24 kernel and the FC22 Modem. I am having the same exact issue as with CM9. When use ##3282# and go to edit any of the settings, I get a modem error. I am totally stumped. Please help!
I thought you couldn't edit modem settings from CM ROMs. You have to use Touchwiz-based ROMs.
I thought your changes would have to be made through software and not directly on the phone, QPST I believe. Also your question is in the right place since you would of gotten lit up if you put this in development. Have you tried using the software recommended in so many convert to MetroPCS threads?
edit: Just saw that you do have to do those codes on one tutorial but I know I seen other tutorials that were more software driven... Hope you get it done Good luck
Mobile data is back!

In order to use QPST or CDMA tools, the phone has to have UART and USB set to Modem, which when I try to change these settings from PDA it doesn't stick.

I honestly wouldn't know one way or the other. I can VIEW those settings as if I was on a TW ROM so long as I don't need to enter my MSL. I have the correct MSL, the sofware just won't progress any further.
Mobile data is now working! I used Calkins Format all, wiped the cache, dalvik cache, and /Data. I then restored my nandroid backup, wiped the cache and dalvik-cache again, followed by flashing the FD19 AOSP Kernel.
After a good power cycle, it work, and the data speeds are reporting twice as fast as they were before from speedtest.net.
I would like to be able to set my phone back to modem, but I won't be greedy. Thanks for the help!
OK, so here is a little more info...My phone is flashed to Cricket carrier. I have spent the last 3 days flashing the **** out of my phone trying different roms,addons, tweaks etc. All the while making sure to wipe Dalvic, and regular caches in between each flash. I am thinking maybe something more than what i am seeing is borked. Could doing a more thourough odin flash help me out? Maybe wiping partitions? A reset pit file? Someone with some insight and more experience with odin may chime in on this one.
Restored my Nandroid backup. Which is CM 10.1 Wild for the night. Now I had everything running buttery smooth on this nandroid except Hdmi mirroring. I have done lots of testing on this rom. The Huge problem now is it restored perfectly with everything running great but, now I know I borked the Gyroscope!!! Has to be that because I have no screen rotation with my nandroid backup now!! WTF???
No matter what rom i flash or how i flash it..., odin, one click, CWM, mobile odin pro, no flash has corrected my auto rotate feature since i flashed the universal Speed Daemon tweak for both touchwiz and AOSP roms!!! Help!!!!
First, this is the Android Development section. You can not post anything other than development in this section. Only ROMs, tweaks, etc go in this section. Questions/problems go in Q&A.
And second, my gyroscope messed up a few months ago as well. It will fix by itself (or at least mine did). Just give it time. If not, then just wipe data and flash a new ROM (or the same one) but make sure to make a backup of your apps before you do it.
Next time, please post in the Q&A section if your phone isn't working properly and need help.
EDIT: And if you are on JB, try using the All-in one Speed Daemon & Gyro/GPS Fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975379

It's probably been looked at but if not you'll want to double-check that auto-rotate is enabled in settings.
Got me a few times this way...
I recently unlocked and rooted my LGOG to the Dirty Unicorns 4.2.2 aokp ROM. Since installing the ROM I've been having on and off data problems, as in sometimes my data works but for days at times it doesn't (in the same areas as when it previously worked). My WiFi is working fine but this data problem is irritating especially since I'm out of contact when I leave WiFi range.
I searched the Dirty Unicorns 4.2.2 thread for possible solutions but no one else has reported this problem. I also have searched this Q&a thread and saw people suggesting to update the PRL but I am unable to find how to do that with this new ROM (I knew how to do it on the Stock UI).
So any help would be greatly appreciated. I love everything else about this ROM except for the data problem so I would prefer to keep it for daily use.

have you tried to swap out your apns.xml
http://d-h.st/Xin
try this one ... download extract use a rootfile browser replace the apns.xlm in system/etc giving it the same permissions as the other on rename the old to apns.xml.bak just in case the outcome is worse... reboot into recovery wipe cache and fix permissions... let me know how that goes for you...also can try restoring efs .... and can try going back to a stock based rom update prl and profile the reflash and check again
Thanks for the advice Spleef but unfortunately the apns.xml file did not work, so I guess the next step would be restoring efs. How would I go about doing that?

In Development. Lifeless, Vectus, Odex, Deodex, Imperium.

Tried Lifeless which turned out to be a horrible choice because the phone now randomly reboots. Upon flashing the ROM, it wiped my SD card and in the process deleted TWRP from my device. One solution I have found is to flash another ROM (I'm going to go with Vectus) but without FreeGee I cannot access recovery to flash the new ROM. I cannot keep my device from rebooting long enough to access the Play Store and combined with the fact that I need to sign in the Play Store to enable my Google account on my device (therefore eliminating the option of installing any programs online), I am unable to access FreeGee.
I originally started this process to just fix my data (by installing a Stock ROM to update my PRL) but using everything I have done has exacerbated or created more problems. If there are any solutions or suggestions from any of the more experienced users I would greatly appreciate your help. Thank you.

wow trying to not be offended by that but if i was you do lgnpst.. the advice everyone has offered including myself was solid...we cannot help the fact that it didnt go right for you obviously must be something missed or done incorrectly since multitudes of others have followed this same advice and links and recovered just fine..your best bet lgnpst back to stock..gl im done offering advice now
LOL spleef you miscontrued the tone of my post. The "more experienced users" was not a slight against you or anyone else who has offered advice, it was in reference to myself since I am continually creating more errors. I am sorry if I offended you but that was honestly not the intention of my post. I appreciate all the advice you have given me, honestly I would be lost without it. I'll update with results.

Just to reenforce what sleef said. LGNPST with the ZVB.bin. That will definitely fix your phone. Another option is use teeny bin. Then in recovery, flash the stock odexed ROM by TheShadow1. It might not cute your problem, but it's a shorter way that might work.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
Thank you everyone for your help (including you, spleef lol) I used LGNPST and got my phone back to stock then re-rooted and unlocked it. I'm going to try Dirty Unicorns again with the updated PRL and hopefully that fixes the original data problem. I just can't find the GAPPS 4.2.2 file now for Dirty Unicorns, when following the link on the OP the file is no longer available.
Nonetheless this was a great learning experience and thank you again!
let me know how that goes. as im also having data issue. im in the city all day and my reception/data would go from 4 bar to nothing in a matter of minutes lol. I would have to off/on data to get back my bars and data which is odd

hey i was able to download the apns.xlm onto my phone put a copy onto that location u said changed the original to .bak and wiped cache and fixed permission. I'll let u know if this works out fine since im home now using wifi
I've been having this issue ever since CM10.1 nightly 0308. Phone reboots randomly and enters a boot loop until it calms down and boots normal. I never had this problem on any build of CM earlier than 030813 when they moved to 3.4 kernels for the Sprint GS3. I've tried everything, posted on numerous forums, even brought the issue to Cyanogenmod's (Steve Kondik's) attention on G+, but all I get from everyone is upgrade to MD4 radio. I have been on MD4 radio and firmware from the first day it was leaked. So if anyone can help fix this I have a $100 bounty on it. Payable via money order to international winner(s) - no Paypal here, and in local currency on the off-chance that a local dev can help fix it. I have uploaded a video on youtube of the phone in a reboot loop. Video is not top quality, it was taken with an iPhone 4S in a moving vehicle but you can see clearly what is going on.
Here is the link to the video on youtube:

NB. The phone is flashed to Visafone CDMA network in Nigeria. Voice, SMS and 3g data work flawlessly.
Bounties are not something we like much on XDA.
Try doing a clean flash wipe cache, wipe dalvik and do factory reset. If you don't do a factory reset your laying the new rom on existing rom data.
Also questions go in the Q&A section not in the General section.
Thread moved.
Have a great day!

I've wiped data, wiped cache, formatted sdcard, formatted system, copied my stuff from external sdcard to laptop, formatted external sdcard, done everything humanly possible to get a trouble-free flash. All goes well during flash, no issues.But phone has never gone 24hrs without a reboot loop. On stock TouchWiz all is well, but I don't like TW. Downgraded to CM10.0 and NO REBOOT LOOPS because kernel is 3.0, same as MD4 TW kernel, so this problem never arises. Traced back a bit to CM10.1 nightly of March 17 or 18 and all is still ok because that was the last nightly with 3.0 kernel. Anything after that and the issue comes up again. My baseband is MD4, same as firmware, flashed with the AIO from freeza. To top it all, this is not peculiar to my phone: ALL Sprint Galaxy S3 phones I have flashed for friends all experience this so I just take them back to stock TW. It's frustrating to say the least. Any help?
Your repeating what you said already. In none of what you said have ever said you have done FACTORY RESET...
Then stay with what works
Have a great day!

Done that at least 15 times. I've been trying to tackle this issue for months now, still no headway. When I was asking around for solutions some people thought I was a phone hypochondriac. That's the reason I posted the video on youtube.
Stick with what works...
Have a great day!
This thread is not within bounty guidelines. For now I am going to shutdown this "bounty" as it does not have a concise goal that pays out at the completion of the goal as it should be stated on the OP. Arguing points with links to real bounty threads is not what we are here for.
Bounties are strictly pledges. If you want to donate to the developer, donate.
With that said this thread is closed.
Regardless of which ROM freshly installed I get "process com.google. etc..." errors
Before I provide more details if needed I just wanted to check the first thing that I should which I'm clueless of. But so far its been a few ROM's. The latest were a couple stock ones and before that, the last time I was regularly using this phone a few years ago I believe it was an ASOP(did I get that right?) ROM. Are there a few common sources I can check for problems that might solve this? The messages seem to just pop up whenever and they are all different but usually start with process com.google then something else. Just need a point in the right direction as when I google these the only general solutions I found were to clean a variety of caches, apps and I've tried clearing dalvik and regular cache from TWRP but that never helped. So any ideas would be appreciated. Also for some reason can't install apk's. Play store works tho. I get that 'error parsing' error. Not sure if related.Trying to set this phone up as a backup phone.
Though I do not know the answer to your problems I would like to suggest you move your thread to Q&A or General because you will not get any answers in the section you posted in...A mod Might move it but if not you definitely should...Just word of advice that's all

Thanks. Actually its been solved. For the moment at least. I think for my latest reinstallation actually. Don't know why it ever gets these issues. I guess I'm afraid to accept that it could be hardware somehow which would be more difficult to solve than software. Well anyway, hopefully it stays this way
