Data dropping while I have full 4g signal (ATT)

Hello,
I am running AOKP JB v1 on ATT Gnex. I havent installed any other kernels or radios. My issue is that, while i have full coverage in an area i know i have data, while my signal bars show full with "H" above them, i cannot get data. Cannot send picture messages or go to google market or use browser. I think i need to flash a different baseband or radio but i have no idea which one i should be using or what is compatible. Can somebody please point me in the right direction. It is rather annoying to loose data constantly.

Well I really need help now. I flashed a radio but obviously it wasnt meant for JB. I have signal enough to text and make phone calls but no data at all now. It shows all grey bars with the H above it. Can anybody link to a working JB radio/baseband for GSM please?
I believe i should be use 9250XXLF1 but i cannot find a download for it

Try going back to stock completely. I do think its rather a network issue. Do you have the correct data plan for it?

I have been using the UGKL1 radio on ATT in Northern California - has worked well for me. Obviously, radios are very dependent on location but this radio was a big improvement for me.

They changed something with the network, allot of users reporting issues of data drops because its switching from umts to hspa and hspap constantly.

I see it constantly changing between the listed signals although the status bars show full w/ "H" above them. Tried multiple different roms. I switched from lumia 900 to this phone so my plan is good up to LTE. Shouldnt have an issue w/ that. Would flashing a different radio help?

ATT GS3 losing Data Network randomly

This is the Task650 and Ktoonsez AOKP. VERSION: d2att(4.1.2 JZ054K) from December 2nd release.
My data network goes in and out at random. It actually started happening about 4 days ago on an older build by Task650 & Ktoonsez but I saw the new one so wiped dalvik and Partition cache and rom'ed. Even after flashing the new ROM, data is acting the same way. It is completely random, happens when the phone is in use or when it is locked. I can tell when data connects for short spurts because I hear the notices for new emails. All in all today, I've maybe had 5 minutes of HSPA/3G data and the rest all I have is cellular network for calls. reception strong, and I am in areas where I always have good connection and speed.
Any ideas? Kind of frustrating if I am out to lunch and want to catch up on things (stuff is blocked at work). Also I am paying for data I can't use :/

fully wipe and reflash.. try a different modem

I am admittedly new to flashing, I just assumed everything was in the package. I flash the ROM and Gapps, is there a source for different modems?
This is definite disconnect of data DHTP. Can't get anywhere, and there is no symbol where there usually is on the reception bar. When it comes back for brief moments, it has either HSPA, 3g, etc.... on the bar.

are you able to send and receive calls? text?
I flashed that rom three days ago, and i had to replace it via warranty. it showed it had signal, but couldnt make any calls or text at all. then i Odin back to stock never worked again.

Don't think it has to do with any rom. Noticed that my wife's sgs3 has had a problem sending and receiving texts and the network drops a lot as well. She is completely stock with the jelly Bean update. My network has been a little suspect over the last few days also. Might just be the service.

Hey Guys, I may have found the culprit...sort of.
The wife has an iP5 and she said to me while we are driving to a holiday party 'I finally have official 4G LTE on my phone'. To which I of course ask what she means. Apparently the same day I started not being able to connect to data networks, is actually the day that ATT fired up their 4G LTE tower(s) in the Lehigh Valley area. When I do get data on occasion, it's when I bump down to 3G and HSPA. Unfortunately, the ROM has a bug where I cannot force it to look for just 3G, I go to save the setting and it immediately jumps back to LTE.
I may just have to flash to a version that definitely supports 4G LTE data. This issue occurred before I flashed to newest ROM, so it has something to do with the core build or modem that both versions use.
Ngriffin, if you find any successful modems please let me know. I like the ROM but I can't go without a data connection much longer.

So, for those who care, I flashed Gapps and also Flashed a new modem (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831898) version UCLG1 and it's a no go. A few in my area said it worked great for them so now I am a bit discouraged. Northeast Pennsilvania Area.

More info, tested using the Wife's Ip5 and realized we don;t have LTE at our house, so I'll have to wait until we get withing range of the LTE tower(s) to see if it has an issue. However, I now have data reliably.

That's normal. LTE is data only and isn't used for phone calls.

I've been running Task's AOKP on my SGS II and III for a while with no data issues. Check your APN settings. If you're in an LTE area, you should be able to sit on the ATT LTE APN and have no problems, even away from LTE coverage.

To update further, LK3 modem worked for a short while, but once I left the area of my immediate cell tower and it had to connect to another tower, it couldn't. I flashed ALL modems in my list a post above and NONE work. I'm kind of pissed right now.
Any ideas? I'll probably to a full backup and then flash a completely different ROM and cross my fingers. Is there an official JB stock ROM sans the bloatware that is stable and can connect to LTE (or any data network reliably for that matter)?

It was my APN *facepalm* Thanks for the suggestion. It was sitting on wap.cingular instead of the LTE and it was causing the issue. I'm on modem CLH1 and it is working, I have the 4G (3G) symbol now and data is connecting. Well, I learned something thanks! :victory:

I started having issues with mine about the same time. I haven't been able to figure it out yet. I had just gone to JB and flashed a new ROM. Then started noticing not just data being very spotty but also my calls (both incoming and outgoing) were very spotty too. Both seemed to only work about 50% of the time. I have since completely wiped and factory reset twice. I even Odin'ed back to a stock Rout66 jelly bean system but I still have issues
I have updated my APN to ATT PTA but that hasn't helped. What APN settings did you go with? Is ther some specific for LTE coverage? On the stock system now I can actually see the LTE icon when it actually chooses to connect.
Also, where did you find other modems. I was told in another forum not to flash any that weren't specific to Jelly Bean and all I have found is the stock I747UCDLK3 which is already on my phone. I did try flashing that seperately just to see if that would help but did not.
I need to get my phone working pronto as it is my main phone for both business and personal phone calls. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I thought they changed the APN to "ATT PHONE"? Trying to find those details now.

When you're on stock, only thing you can do is check with your carrier and they'll either tell you that it's something on their end being worked on or that your SIM card is faulty.

This happens to me on tasks AOKP ROM at least once per day, but it usually only happens when I turn on LTE. Basically what happens is the phone has cellular service but no data, after a few minutes it comes back. What I have noticed is that its to do with LTE so maybe there's a problem with that?

Task's AOKP doesn't set the default APN to LTE for Rogers so you might wanna make sure it's your default APN.

Fixed service dropping and locked LTE

I finally got LTE locked on with Telus other users confirmed Rogers, AT&T and Bell(thanks) . No service disconnections, even while on wifi.
The problem I see is conflicting settings while flashing roms/modems. This seems to be the only fix. I'm pretty stoked I figured this out because I was about to switch back to my s2x out of frustration.
This took a lot of trial and error, literally had nothing to go on and no where in particular to start. Enjoy.
MAKE SURE YOU ENABLE LTE TOGGLE IN ROM AND HAVE IT ON BEFORE STARTING.
1. Network mode(settings/wireless & networks, more/ mobile networks/ network mode) set to gsm/lte/wcdma
2.Phone setting in test mode *#*#4636#*#* set to lte/gsm
at&t / rogers should select gsm/lte/cdma in test mode
3.Recovery flash latest modem mumLL1
(at&t users flash ucdlk3)
Wipe cache/dalvik
4 . Reset. Give it a couple mins to ask the network for lte.
If you disable Lte(through toggle) and want to use 3g/H+ for battery saving, the only way I've been able to reconnect to it; is to re enable(toggle) and reset, wait a couple mins to connect.
Side note: depending on your 4g service area, it may bounce around 3g/H+ which is normal.
When you place a call it will drop to 3g (the believed reason for this is that the phone knows you won't need heavy data so falls back to ease up on the battery during calls) but will reconnect a couple mins later. Our phones are slow to negotiate Lte connections with the radio testing sockets and network stability before committing, so be patient.
Let me know if this works for you and which network. Thanks.

Re: Fixed service droping and locked LTE

So does this mean we get no 3g?
Sent from my Mind using Telekinesis!

Yes everything works. I can unselect lte in my toggles and it drops to 3g/hspa. When I re-enabled lte I noticed that I have to make sure in network settings lte/gsm/wdcma is selected and reset phone.

O wow lucky u I can't unselect on Att lol
Sent from my Mind using Telekinesis!

Which rom are you on? Should be up in your toggles. Basically it changes you network settings from cdma/gsm to lte/gsm/cdma. But it conflicts sometimes.

Its there it just doesn't do anything because all the modems on the Att S3 are Rill locked or something so we don't have the option to do it so easily

Ok sounds promising but unable to get my ATT phone running ROM cyanogenmod10.1 03/04 nightly into Test Mode using the keypad code provided. This does work for stock ROM phones. Do you know any other way to get into the test mode?

Yeah I'm pretty sure everyone is using cm10 or aokp. Not sure if stock is having these problems. If they were I'd be on the phone yelling at Telus.
Xda I747

So let me get this right. This fixes the signal jumping around on cm10/aokp ROMs?? That's the only reason I stay on a stock based rom. I'm tired of seeing my signal jump back and fourth from 4g to 3g etc. On stock I always have a rock solid signal. It does not jump around..... Thanks in advance...

Yes for me and others didn't even get 4g, also it would completely go out of service. Now I get steady 4g.

Sorry man, I tried looking around for a way. Could be the rom you're on. I know Liquid and Carbon are fine. Probably a couple more that I don't even know of, others have success with.

stock lies to and shows 4G all the time, cm10 and show the truth. the s3 sets at 3g until data is needed then transfers to 4g

[Q] [Problem] Data loss at certain areas on GSM Gnex

Hello, I am on AT&T on a GSM Galaxy Nexus. This problem has been happening since the the 4.2.1 update to JB and made me root and flash CM just to see if it would solve it (though I initially wanted to because I was curious since this is my first smart-phone).
So the problem is that at work and certain places I get absolutely no data. I can text sms (no mms since no data) and call people just fine but nothing that requires a data connection works since it timeouts. It happens specifically at work. Nobody that has AT&T in my office has problems except me, so I'm ruling that out. Now previous to this I would encounter the problem in very densely populated places like shopping malls or stadiums but I don't think that's the case here.
Here's the other strange kicker: if I switch to "GSM only" instead of "WCDMA Preferred", it works just fine but it's only Edge so it's slow. I have also tried "GSM/CDMA auto (PRL)" to no avail. The only one that works consistently is "GSM only". Once I leave work I have to switch it back again to either of those to to get HSPA+.
I have flashed multiple versions of CM to see if it fixes and since I like the rom so much I haven't gone back to stock. I've done CM10 Stable through M1~M3 and RC1~RC3 to CM10.1 stable and absolutely nothing has fixed it. It is driving me insane because sometimes work is slow and I grow stupidly bored.
Any clues?

[Q] N900T: fixes for poor signal?

My N900T has much worse signal than my previous Note II - between 15 and 20 dBm worse, so essentially unusable out in the fringe area I live in.
I'm running SlimKat 9.0 (4.4.4) baseband is N900T UVUENK3 (which I think might be the most recent modem).
I'm using a StraightTalk ATT SIM (phone is unlocked) but that shouldn't matter for signal strength
I've got Preferred network type: LTE
And in service mode / phone info, I have preferred network type: LTE/GSM auto (PRL) - unchanged from standard.
I've removed the back cover (the one under the battery door) and made sure all the "fingers" make good contact with the contact pads that are built into that cover (fixed my GPS but not baseband)
Anything else I can check? Should I try some ATT radios to see if signal improves?
Or is this just the nature of the beast? Move to the city or get a different phone?
Thanks for any input!

Had this problem but hopefully the fix I used will work better. I flashed pac rom from nightly and resulted in no signal even though showed 3 bars(never higher or lower) but no connection in reality. Tried this and got signal kinda ( very slow and missed calls and sms)
Anyway
On tmobile network but might help either way idk never had att.
First goto
Settings/More Networks/...
Then first try the lte if not heard using 3g can fix signal connection with custom roms.
Check your apn settings and verify with att/simple talk
And if needed hit the mobile operators and let it do its thing.
Still not working can try fixing another way let me know.
Screens attached and can't post link ig but quick Google search should net you the setting. I did keywords "att apn settings"
Let me know how it goes. Flashing pac rom see how update goes this time for me lol

The signal got a good bit better when I replaced the antenna signal cable. Cost a whole $3.
I'm still 5 or 6 dBi down from my old note 2, but, from my forum reading, that might be the nature of this beast.

I have same problem, poor network, and sometimes when I go to some club or cafe I dont have network and on S2 same network I have full signal 3G, H+
