for some reason after i flash a rom i will only get 1x and i have to go back to a stock rom to get 3g back. has anyone else had this problem?
Check your prls and modems
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
i have updated the prls and i was on the latest modem and it was still doing it. then i tried downgrading to LF9 modem with no change. im on the LG2 build.
Which ROM? On Cm10 early builds I only showed 1x but if doing speed tests and looking at dbm signal output I was still getting 3g speeds.
i first tried it on blazer ROM 1.5 then i seen there was an update so i tried 1.6 but got the same thing
i have also just tried it with Team VeNuM's blue themed rom and i have the same outcome
What kind of real speeds are you getting when you speed test? It's entirely possible that you truly only have 1x speeds in your area. Sprint has "strongly encouraged" Samsung and HTC to always show 3G in areas where there is supposedly 3G. Most custom ROMs have corrected this by showing actual speeds in their ROMs. So it could also be that you truly are only getting 1x and the stock ROM is falsely reporting 3G.
ok well now that im home (i was away on vacation in the Poconos) i ran a speed test and got decent numbers this is the results of 3 tests i ran /ping- 92, 77, 76 /download kB/s- 214.6, 236.8, 152.5 /upload kB/s- 78.3, 77.8, 101.6. so i backed up, flashed Team VeNuM's rom and wiped cache but when the phone booted it showed 3g so maybe b/c i was in PA it might have been saying i was in 3g when i really wasnt proving what you were saying jdogg836. so heres the results of the speed test /ping- 121, 134, 206 /download kB/s- 89.1, 67, 64.4 /upload kB/s- 61.1, 28, 58.6 it's showing much slower speeds but im not sure why

Call sprint...lots of antennas are only around 60-70% right now....got to do with upgrading system from my understanding...also...upgrade your radio to LG8 and see what happens. :fingers-crossed:
but that big of a drop within minutes? yea im on the LF9 modem i downgraded from the LG2. are people having better luck with the LG8 from the LG2?

Check to see if the time you flashed has the 1x/3g mod... stock Roms only ever show 3g even when they are on 1x..
You can also go into the market and download netmonitor which will tell you your true network type.
I'm almost willing to bet that's the problem.
I too live in pa and most northern parts only have 1x service.. just so you know.
Harrisburg/reading/Lebanon is where you start getting 3g.
Edit. Most of what I said was already explained. Didn't see jdoggs post.

Personally I've has this problem since day 1 with this phone. On Airave it seems worse than being connected to towers for me. Sometimes mine goes from 3g to 1x to no data. Turning mobile data off and on usually fixes the issue. I've tried all radios, no difference, LG8 seems to keep connection longer.

If you have the original airave it only has 1x.
The newer version the airvana has 3g coverage..

I've had newer one since the day it came out, no problems with any other phone I've had, just s3. I believe the problem to be the phone, sprint, or my isp.
this message brought to you by my GalaxyS3
I have had modem issues since day one too, I got a new phone because of the poor signal and it's the same.
I tried all the radios this weekend and found no real gains with any. I saw the 1x indicator with the CM10 7/29 build and the AOKP ROM.
Stock based ROM all showed 3G, but it would make sense if they are lying, although I would see 1x in distant lands on my EVO.
I will try the speed test.
It's also worth noting that I have a friend with a stock HTC X one getting about the same signal as me, so it may well be that sprint is messed up here.

I'm not sure at this point, tried everything under the sun, just today I got into the Airvana management page and set it to my router's reserved IP for my Airvana. I think its Sprint also, but you know when I'm right under the Airvana, it seems my s3 keeps solid data connection. This could very well be a weak radio in the S3. All I know is I never had this issue with any previous phones. Maybe 1 day someone will figure this out as Sprint Airave techs are worthless, I feel like I know more than they do!
My problem is even worse since I rooted and flashed AOKP. Hopefully someone can help here. I can make phone calls, it shows 1x, but I don't have a data connection...
Wondering if it is my area. I haven't had issues before. Maybe I should call Sprint to see if they are messing with the towers.
UPDATE: Fixed by flashing stock rom and using the ##72786# in the phone keypad thankfully.

Yuuup.. They are dicking around constantly.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
I searched but on the whole it seems that the people experiencing the same issues don't have custom roms on their phones.
I essentially have no data connection whatsoever and like many others I went from having ~90 ping, 9-10Mbps down, and 1-3Mpbs up to having 1000+ ping and .05Mbps up/down.
I'm currently on the CM10 - 9/20 nightly (and I was on the 9/05 nightly) with lean kernel .15 and I've tried UVDLI8, UVDLI7, UVDLI6 and UVALEM basebands and nothing seems to help. As far as I can tell my IMEI is intact and I can make calls out, receive texts, etc... except anything relating to data is ridiculously slow. My brother seems to get fairly decent speeds and he is rooted and has a custom rom on his G2x. Is it possible that they're throttling only my line?
I've tried talking with T-Mobile and their customer service reps tell me things like "hold down the power button until your phone shuts off" so... not very helpful. Any suggestions or recommendations would be very much appreciated.
So I worked with the T-mobile CSR rep and they told me to change some of the settings in the APN, and now I don't get any signal, do any of you guys have what the APN settings were for CM10?
CM10 doesn't have specific APN settings. You can Google T-Mobile APN settings and use those.
Where are you located?

Located in Houston. I'm really hoping its not a CM10 issue because I really don't want to go back to TouchWiz.

Yeah definitely spotty. So I was driving around Houston yesterday and was doing speedtests as I was going, turns out I have absolutely fantastic data speeds until I take the exit off the highway and head towards my house (signal gets progressively worse the closer I get to my house). It's literally like a dead spot sitting right around my house which is only 5 min from the highway and 15+ Mbps download speeds. I called T-Mobile and they claim that there aren't any towers down and that I'm not being throttled but I used to be able to get fairly decent speeds at my house. At least now I know it's not my phone and it's not the rom/kernel/modem.
Are there hills?? Signal will always be stronger near highways because that's where the towers are.
Download the app Phone Info and try to force 4G?
I'm less than 5 minutes from the highway and no, there aren't any hills. I did hear back from T-mobile and now they're finally admitting there might be an issue with one of the towers in my area.
I had the same exact issue. It was a tower problem and it took about 3 weeks to resolve. I was compensated by having my data credited for a month. $30 total. It's really frustrating I know but it should pass in time.
Yeah so it was a tower issue for sure. I'm back to getting ~10-15 down at home. Glad that was finally resolved.

I have been on the phone with TMO about the same thing for over a month, plus my issue goes a little further. I will lose connection to a tower and not get texts or calls until I reboot the phone.
TMO had me replace the phone and SIM card, then opened a ticket with the Engineers in Las Vegas to troubleshoot, their response was that it was a known issue and would be resolved in the next weeks or months.
Everything ran fine until they pushed out the 4G LTE update, after that the service has been horrible.... even after that update that was supposed to resolve it...
I am wondering if there is a ROM out there that someone built to address this issue as I have about had it...
I am rooted but haven't thrown a ROM on it .... yet

Im guessing you updated your phones softwarem if so, you may want to downgrade to a 4g non-lte radio, and set yourself up on a 4g apn as well. It should help at least until rhey correct their tower issues. 4g is still pretty fast and at least your mms / signal will work as you will be back in the 4g towers instead.
Edit
Actually try this:
Settings--> wireless and networks / more settings --> mobile networks --> network mode --> and select the automatic 4G /3g /2g setting
Then go to access point names and add a new one. The only 4 lines you need to edit are as follows :
Name - Tmobile 4g
APN - epc.tmobile.com
MMSC - http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
And
Apn type - default,supl,admin,dun,mms ( no spaces inbetween the comas )
Give it a shot and let us know if it helps. It should force you back onto the 4g towers which use a different frequency. If you still have issues, then keep all these settings active THEN try an older 4G radio.

It's screwed from coast to coast. Been back and forth driving from california to pennsylvania, and the network is spotty on LTE within LTE markets, otherwise it runs great until it hiccups.
Seems like you get the equivalent of 'buffer overrun' issues from cd burning. Gert a bunch of data quickly, then stops for a minute to sort it out, then another data burst.
Seems like it happens to deliver a handful of megs of data, then practically loses network service for a few seconds, then another couple megs of data.
Just what i've seen running around nationwide.
LTE is fast when you find it though, nowhere near the speed of my verizon LTE service, but I can live with it.
Hopefully once they finish the LTE rollout it'll be back to normal.
Just made the switch over to att and I am getting really slow lte speeds. Can anybody help?

Thanks for the advice but I read through the thread already and it doesn't seem like it will improve drastically. So I rather not attempt to flash a modem that may cause a soft brick. My brother has a N900a and gets almost triple the speed of my lte. What gives?
I dont always get fast speeds. I'm guessing at&t phones get higher priority than other phones. There is a build.prop that you can flash/edit that may or may not work. I, myself, haven't made any mods because I get higher speeds usually. Not always. I am on a 900T but using an international 9005 rom with T-Mobile modem still. It really boils down to is the risk flashing a modem or build.prop worth it. In downtown houston I rarely dip below 10mb/s on LTE and occasionally see over 20mb/s. The congestion is real bad here so it is very often I get bumped back down to hspa. Like I said, you have to weigh the risks. I am fine with how it is working now. My post probably hasn't helped you get you where you want to go but it may help you to be content with what you have or may consider flashing an international rom minus modem and see if that helps.

I as well am on Straight Talk At&t micro sim and I get pretty decent speeds I believe Straight Talk cap's their LTE speeds at 15 down and I think around 8-9 up which ain't bad for the Chicago area. But there are times where I barely get 2 down and 4 up. I also have a Tmobile Note 3 stock/rooted using a ST sim.

Tmobile Note 3 on ATT Network
I have a Tmobile unlocked phone on ATT and I can't find out anyway to speed up the LTE. I get LTE it seems, but it cuts the speed in half compared to my girlfriend ATT variant Note 3. I tried to flash an AT&T modem to it, but then it would soft brick the device and wouldn't boot. I have tried every APN I can think of, but still no success. I have tried the build.prop, like adding the lines for faster data tweak, but still nothing is getting better. I have full bars, but speed is slow. Do you have any suggestions on what to do, b/c I am out of options. Thanks.
Add me to the list. Just switched over to AT&T from T-mobile, but get very bad speeds. The only reason why I switched over was because with T-mobile, I was getting poor quality signal almost EVERYWHERE, so I had no choice.
I'm curious; if the bands in our phones support the proper AT&T bands and we actually get LTE, it's gotta be a software issue. Modem most likely.
Yeah im sure it has to do with the way the modem is optimized for ATT's 1700 band. I'm also in the same boat and have flashed ATT's modem but it doesn't work. Others have flashed ATT modems but I dont think anyone has been able to successfully see their baseband change in the settings so no one can say whether it worked for sure. I can tell you that the bars have nothing to do with your call signal though, its just your LTE signal strength. If you really want higher signal in your house if LTE seems to drop or be super slow, you should manually switch over to use HSPA+ in your house. Its a pain...i know.
I'm hoping eventually the newer modems fix the 1700 mhz frequency optimization or some devs figure out how to successfully flash N900A modems on the N900T.
LTE speeds
I have great signal almost always it seems like. I have full bars on LTE or 4G/HSPA+, but if I put my sim card in my AT&T variant note I get at least twice as much throughput than with the note 3 tmobile. It has to be a software issue, I have tried to flash att modems with no success. Just got to wait for a tweaked modem. I have even tried tweaking build.prop file and it works a little bit but not much. It is just weird I have full bars with LTE, but I won't be able to get data sometimes, which is really weird. I think there has to be something with the signal bars showing higher dbm that it actually is receiving. Probably another software glitch. Well if anyone has any insight on this issue let us know, please been looking everywhere.
LTE speeds
I think also that the modem is not the only issue. I flashed a kernel today after being on the stock kernel on the T-Mobile and I did a speedtest and the speeds were really low. Flashed another kernel and boom faster speeds back to where I was, maybe higher, but I will monitor to see what happens. But I read that Kernels do affect data speeds sometimes. I am just going to keep looking around to see if any kernels work.

Is there any tweaks that can be done to kinda help the LTE or at least fix my signal bars showing full all the time. I am thinking it is not switching towers when it is supposed to and giving a false signal strength. Is there anything on modifying like you can on Sprint phones with dbm on wimax, where it will switch antennas.

I upgraded the modem and bootloader to the new NE6 version. I'm on Temasek CM11. My observations:
Signal strength is slightly better. Speeds are definitely much better. Prior to the upgrade, I'd get around 6-15/down, 3/up. Now I consistently get 25/down, 10/up.

How did you get the new modem to stick? Did you do the triangle away method? If so, did you have to revert to a stock kernel first? I'm trying to upgrade only the modem and leave the bootloader as is. Is that a bad idea?

I can't figure this out and have researched it more than I like to admit without any luck...
I am running DN5v2 rom on my Note 2. I have been noticing that my data has been pretty slow lately and did a speedtest and only getting .5Mbps download. I have installed various modems with the same results. I did a clean install of the rom with same results. Checked APN settings and looked OK.
I thought it may be my area but did a speedtest on my sisters s5 with 20MBps download speeds (I understand different hardware may have something to do with it but I should get more than 0.5 MBps). I live in Orange County, CA so there is great signal around here.
I am all out of ideas. Anybody got anything I can try?
Much appreciated!!!
Last thing I checked was my data usage. Was at 5.7 Gb for this month. Talked to rep, they are throttling me till next billing period. Such #@[email protected]#%@!

That'll cause your speed to slow down for sure. Hate when they throttle my speeds!
Anyway not sure what carrier you're using. But AT&T got hit by the Fcc for throttling customers, that had unlimited data..
Which I got hit plenty of times. Since I was in the 5% of users who used lots of data. BS I say... it's being investigated so it can be stopped.. hopefully.
One way around it was to use an older apn setting to trick the network. It worked sometimes, and then it wouldn't do squat.
I made a thread about data throttling awhile ago.

What is a stock rom? Just Kidding. I talked to the ATT rep and they are throttling me.

That'll cause your speed to slow down for sure. Hate when they throttle my speeds!

Yeah. I have had AT&T for over 10 years. Now they do this crap to their loyal customers. No need to say more...it's beating a dead horse. Hopefully the lawsuit that FTC put on them will take care of this once and for all.
My billing period is going to reset in a day or two. I'll try the old APN settings next time these douche bags throttle me.
Thanks for the response guys!
