There's a glitch with the e4gt that I think was the issue with Los

Ok so whenever I reset my ram with task manager my radio crashes and when it comes back on it says roaming then jumps back to Sprint service. It also happens when using ##3282# wether I go to edit or view clicking on evdo will crash the radio. It did this on every build since I got the phone. Its nothing major like b4 when rebooting was the only way to get back in service. Just wanted to point it out bcuz I know its not normal and never experienced it with the og epic.

Its not a glitch that is supposed to happen. When u clear the RAM it stops all apps and processes from running. That us why that happens. Actually that was used to help get rid of LOS rather than rebooting cause it resets the radio.

Ok but why does it do it when accessing ##3282# and clicking on evdo from both the edit and view option? Also mind you it did this on my EG30 firmware when I got the phone. I disagree for the simple fact my phone always did this from day one. Clearing my ram always crashed my radio on eg30 so how is that new? Don't get me wrong I believe they did find a way for the phone to not have to reboot when it happens, but that right there is not it. Its a hardware flaw..

Also let me point out that my og epic used the same task manager and clearing out my ram would not crash my radio.

+1....clearing ram does not crash my radio
sent from the near past

Clearing apps and ram from the built in task manager does not, and never has, crashed the radio on my phone.

Did any of you two that never had this happen ever had a LOS occur before the fix? I'm no pro at being a super geek but I know when something seems screwy with my electronics...

I got my phone about three months ago approximately. It must of had eg baseband on it because it immediately updated to ek02. I don't know if what I think Los is, is actually what it is. I thought it was, when you woke up the phone, you would discover that the 3g and bars were gone and replaced with a circle with a slash through it. Am I mistaken?

Your radio will always reset after ##3282#.. It resets to apply any changes. Just the same as after a profile or prl update.
But should not after clearing apps in task manager.

No the heck it shouldn't! I'm not even applying any changes! All it takes is for me to click evdo from whichever option wether edit or view. Mind you my screen freezes fir a short min when I do go to the evdo setting. Maybe I should make a video bcuz i'm tired of people saying this is normal. I bet the people who said they radios do not crash when they clear the ram won't experience this issue. If this is normal why the same option on my og epic which I still have doesn't do this screwy behavior?

Ok that's good to know. I got the phone on December and I never got one either. However I did experience the no signal popping up whenever I shut the phone off every once in a while. Never happened again after I upgraded to ek02. I'm just trying to get some info b4 I decide to go to Sprint and swap it out.. Now if those other two guys who don't experience radio crashes when clearing ram would let me know if they ever had LOS prior to ek02 I'd gladly appreciate it. Its just the whole thing has me skeptical..

I have both phones, and both perform the same way. As have the hundreds that I've troubleshot in the last three years at my store.
Sounds like you have heard your answer countless times, your just looking for feedback that follows what you want, not the actual facts.
Its not a crash. It will show a crossed out circle, flash connecting to voice(the 1x icon), and reconnect to 3G. If it isn't reconnecting, you have an issue. But, it will always reset.

1st I'll start off by saying two people already said they don't have this issue in this thread. 2nd how those the 1x icon show before reconnecting to 3g when Sprint disables the 1x from all their 4g phones from showing. And lastly I am glad you experienced the same behavior on all the phones you've worked on. I however didn't have that same experience. Anyways I already spoke to my friend (who works at a Sprint store) and he assured me his doesn't do it and if I would like I can come in to the store so he can order me a new one. Which I will do...
Edit: PS how dare you say all phones do it when I have my first epic 4g in my face and it is not doing this? Smh

T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S2 - Data/4G not working

Got the phone two days ago.
Upgraded to ICS via Odin.
Root + CWM via Odin.
Flashed DARKSIDE.EVOLUTION.3 v8.
Didn't work for me personally.
Wiped cache and flashed aokp_hercules_build-M5_0xD34D.zip
Liked the ROM but noticed that signal bars were there but no data/4G.
Have been roaming the internet for hours now trying to figure out what went wrong.
All I can make sense is that something went wrong with the "radio kernel" or something like that.
If anyone can help me sort this problem out I would be extremely grateful. This phone was expensive and data plans are expensive, so I want to utilize both to their full potential. Thanks

I ordered two phones, the other was for a family member and theirs is working fine, even with ICS update, so there is no data outage problems in my area. As it turns out it was a defect in the phone. I contacted t-mobile and we went through this hour long procedure which produced no results. In the end, they asked if I would like to return the device or get a replacement. I opted for a replacement and so will be shipping it out soon. Lets hope the new phone doesn't go all unpredictable on me

[Q] Canada Virgin Mobile S2, T Mobile 4G not working.

[Q] Very weak signal on Note II. Radio Help?

Hey XDA Fam bam!
I have the T-mobile branded Note II and i'm experiencing the following problem:
Very weak signal.
Here's a little background. I rooted the phone and installed pmtr3 first V1 Rom and everything was perfect.
Then played around with other roms too and then the signal went every weak.
Then when I went back to pmtr3's first rom my signal did not improve. I would lose connection
everywhere. I replaced my tmo sim card, but I still experience this problem. I also went back to my stock nandroid backup, but it still did not help my signal problem.
Is there some sort of radio or modem I can flash? Am I the only one experiencing this problem?
I'm thinking it can be a hardware problem, but Idk. What input do you have my XDA fam bam?

Most problems FROM xda members devices are caused by user error. E.G. wrong roms. Not reading before doing stuff and trying to do too much. Its all over the forums. Maybe you havent read the same forum im talking about. Im talking about xda developers.
P.s. please no more pm's you are killing me. I try to read them but I just cant make it through some of them. I have to delete them.

Uh oh, well just in case, I saved them here:

Well I waited in line for an hour at my tmo store and got a new sim card as they claimed that would solve the data issue. But I also made them process an exchange. So I should have my new one tuesday. No more rooting until the problems solved.

No, mine's rock steady as Jim Dandy. I'd suggest saving what's important, resetting and start from scratch.

So no one else is losing service randomly or freezes or reboots?

I get random reboots but like once a month or something like that. But I'm for sure done with sprints crappy service.

I was having the same issue, no 4g and no bars. Then I found this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2086769
went ahead and flashed it and buumm every thing started to work. I also played with the ##DATA# settings made the 4g work like crazy sweet.
just make sure you write down the setting you have before you change any thing.
o and by the way you might need to download Get My MSL from play store.
hope it works for you.

no problems here, but service just plain sucks. i can't even stream google music at 320kb/s. i don't see why service would have gotten so crappy lately since sprint sure as heck hasn't had a large influx of customers. it was getting better few months ago, now it's back to crap. i'm temped to dump sprint even though i've got the sero plan. crappy service at a good price is still crap.

Best thing to do would be what was suggested... Start from scratch.... I started having problems with random reboots and storage not showing.... So i used Odin to flash back to stock rooted. After that no more problems....

i had the same issue
but i start using a custom rom but a stock kernel all is good at least i think so lol

I found I had zero service tbis morning with AOSP. Flashed back to Twiz, updated my prl for the first time in forever... And back up

If IMEI is intact, it's a T-Mobile issue. I was replying to say that I've had this issue before, once. I was going to call them to complain, but it was fixed in under 24 hours.

Happens to me here and there. sometimes I lose internet conection for 30min to and 1hour. I already called tmobile and told them bout it and how it started happening after they activated lte -.- they said its weird that it shouldn't be happening what should actually be happening is the data speeds geting faster. All they did is reset my data conection and gave me $5 credit for 6months:banghead:

Iv tried flashing stock via odin and it didn't help :/ so I called and got a replacement so far it hasn't happen anymore the thing that sucks is that the replacement I received is defective the home button is not sticking out how its supose to so I called and place another order but they are out of stock I kinda got upset when I was told I would have to wait like bout a week or so to receive my replacement so I asked if later on the road the home button started giveing me problems was I allowed to exchange for a replacement I wss told yes so I cancelled it cuz I could live with my phone like that not really a big thing

Sometimes if you press the issue they will replace it with a comparable model. They certainly have the T999L in stock if you want to ask if that's a possibility. Dont expect it to work, but could be worth a shot...

I called T-Mobile but they just reset the lines well that's what they said.
And nothing still the same data drops, iam going to try odin flash and I would see if that helps
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium

If the flash doesn't help, wait another day or two and call back if it doesnt improve. Tell them you'd like to have a help ticket escalated because their last attempts did not help. Just try to get them to put you in contact with a tech who has the ability to deal with things on a more specific level. Most likely you only got the first level of support. They don't have many permissions to deal with a lot of issues. A lot if them are told that account resets will fix everything it seems like!
Hopefully though, things will jusy improve as they work on towers and upgrades.
