I am having major radio issues. I am using latest cyanogenmod nightly(10.2) but this issue is also present with slimkat and cyanogenmod 10.1 RC so it's not specific to cyanogenmod 10.2. This effects both wifi and 3g. I have attempted several reflashes with clearing cache and formatting data partition.
I would get a good signal status icon(and it's blue in cyanogenmod, i know when it's gray it doesn't have connectivity) but I keep getting no connection messages on anything that uses internet connectivity. Sometimes I can put it into airplane mode and off again and it would restore connection. other times when attempting to put it into airplane mode it gets stuck in airplane mode and the option is disabled to get it back out. Not sure if it ever finishes getting into airplane mode or not. Restarting the phone fixes the issue. Toggling wifi does nothing.
Anyone have any idea what's going on?
Are you on the latest Radios? If you are not, flash it. If you are, flash a different one.

Hi,
Usually i have wifi enabled permanently, as i have coverage at home, university and t-mobile hotspots. But my nexus sometimes does not get a working data connection if i disable wifi or come back from flight mode. Icon shows reception and 3G/H/H+ but stays grey. I can't access any internet services like mail,http...
If i reboot the device, everything is fine.
Any ideas ?
Latest (-3days behind max) CM10 with stock kernel, XXLF1 baseband, tmobile germany
P.s.: tried to search with google, found nothing. Currently the nexus is my only internet-capable device, so i am sorry if repost...

Try toggling airplane mode?
Beamed from my Grouper.
Same issue here. Get random signal losses and afterwards no data until reboot. I've experienced this with other Roms as well. Toggling the airplane mode sometimes help for data recovering.
Try setting your minimum CPU above 500 Mhz...
How can that change the signal issues?
Maybe toggling wifi helps (sometimes)

I have exactly the same problem on galaxy s. The status bar shows mobile network connection, but the symbol stays grey, and connection is not there. Reboot is the only safe way to solve that. Sometimes toggling airplane mode helps, last time toggling wifi helped.
Changing APN seems to be helpful. Someone that looks good with the current provider.
almost same issue for me...
but there is some weird difference...
I have a GSM Galaxy Nexus latest radio, consistent RIL and latest CM10.
I lost data suddenly while browsing.
I can see blue signal with 3G, start browse and it change to H/H+. No problem until now but, when data returns to 3G, all further requests stay "pending" for a while (phone call is not working in this state!!!!). after a minute.... CRASH, all signal lost. Something like a reset.
even toggling data does not work... I simply have to wait that the phone decides to work again.
I'm from Italy, carrier is Vodafone. Someone with some hint?
thanks!

It's the correct APN, did autoconf OTA.

Because on earlier builds of some AOSP ROMs, the radio had a tendency to go to sleep and not wake up when the frequency dropped too low. The common fix at the time was to use a higher number for the minimum frequency...
Read you must...
I was looking up the answers to this same problem. When I'm staying still my internet is fine but when I'm driving down the road I lose signal. I did a google search for "cm10 losing data connection". This is a "normal problem" it is caused from changing between 3g and LTE 4g. I'm still looking up solutions to this problem.
Hey everyone I am using cm10 ROM and I think its awesome but the only problem is that every time I am using WiFi or using my mobile data plan the WiFi bars stay gray and I factory reset my device like 5 times and it worked and the WiFi bars turned blue when connected but right now I'm connected with WiFi and its working but the WiFi bars are still gray and I go to Google play store and it says no connection also in Google now is there a fix? Any help out there?
That's the biggest bug that i have experienced in cm10, that bug was there since i started installing nightlies, i wonder why they have not fixed it yet.
Do not ever ever turn off or restart your phone with the wifi on or it will going to lock up, always remember to turn the wifi off first.
If it locks up, the only fix is to keep on restarting your phone till it unlocks the wifi toggler
I have tried using AOKP, Paranoid and PACMAN with no success. When I leave my home area and head to King of Prussia, I lose my internet connection. Even when I got back home I still cannot get my internet connection back. I have tried clearing the caches, rebooting, turning data on and off, and turning airplane mode on and off. Any ideas on what the problem could be? When I was on CM 10.1 I was fine and had no issues. Thanks

The ROM itself isn't the problem, you need to try different modems for your carrier (search for the modem thread).
Put on CM11 Nightly (20131218) and I am having issues with handoffs from 4G back to 3G (although 3G to 4G seems to be fine). I can turn off radio and back on and everything is fine, but was wondering if anyone had a better idea about this?

official or unofficial build?
what gapps did you choose?
did you dirty flash or do clean install?

Official nightly
GApps 20131208
Clean flash (format /system, dalvik, cache, and data)
I've since gone back to 10.1 since it seems to be the most stable for data handoffs, but I would love to get KitKat going again.

I'm seeing the same problem with the latest snapshot (cm-11-20140104-SNAPSHOT-M2-toroplus.zip). I plan to switch to CM 10.1 for now, as well, since 10.2 still has known "Issues between 4G and 3G switching".
(wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Known_Issues_page_for_toroplus)
Any updates would be appreciated.

I updated from CM11 Snapshot M2 to the recently posted Snapshot M3. The 3G/4G handoff problems that I was having in M2 appear to have been fixed in M3. However, the (stock) portable wifi hotspot function isn't working properly for me now with M3.
After some additional testing I've found out that my signal cuts out and has problems reconnecting after activating the portable wifi hotspot (similar to the previous 3G/4G handoff problems). And the my other devices can connect to the portable hotspot but they do not get an internet connection. It appears that turning off the portable wifi hotspot and then toggling data may reset the data connection.
Is anyone else experiencing the same behavior?

I've been having all sorts of data issues lately, even worse I think with M3. But, I haven't cleaned flashed in a while. I hadn't thought to try toggling hotspot--I'll have to try that next time I can't get any data (3g or 4g). Over the weekend I had to hotspot my phone a bunch and since lte doesn't yet reach my house I had to hotspot 3g and that was working just fine. I'd be interested though, if you're consistently having good 4g data or if it was just a momentary fluke for a day. It seems like some days I've had no issues with 4g and other days it's been a bear where I struggle to even get 3g.

yotvb531, your suspicions were right... After 1 day of flawless data handling on CM 11 Snapshot M3, I experienced a hiccup during a 3G/4G handoff. Soon after, the data handoff problems became routine like they were with Snapshot M2 (perhaps worse). Although toggling the data connection would get the network to reconnect, the data connection problems occurred often enough to make me revert back to CM 10.1.3 a day or two later.
I'm now anxiously awaiting the next CM 11 Snapshot, hoping the data connection problems will be fixed.

After not being able to pick up 4G from the snapshot on, and hearing from others that they had 0 issues on a clean flash, I finally spent the 5 hours to clean flash my phone (I also formatted the sdcard while I was at it because I hadn't done that either in a very long time).
Happy to report that ever since then (12 days and counting) things have been very smooth. I've had issues only twice, but based on the behavior I'm pretty sure they are attributed to cell tower maintenance and not my phone freaking out...mainly because it didn't matter what I tried and then hours later after I had given up messing with settings everything started working again and was then fine for a week afterwards...and also after that outage the data speeds went from 1 Mbps to 8 Mbps.
Not saying a clean flash will fix everyone's problems, but it definitely did wonders for me...fingers crossed that when I finally decide to move on from the 2/13 nightly everything will continue smoothly.
There I went jinxing myself! I had to toggle airplane today after leaving work to get 4g to pick up. Was stuck on 3g EVDO. Toggling airplane mode got it to switch over to eHRPD which then allowed it to pick up the 4g. So maybe the hand-offs aren't perfect, but act fine most of the time--in my situations.
That same behavior happened once before on this same nightly (2/13) and I chalked it up as tower maintenance. That was in addition to the other time I mentioned where speeds jumped from 1->8 Mbps and I didn't have to do anything for the lte to return. I think that one was actual tower maintenance; just the other one wasn't...and it happened again today...twice in 14 days isn't too bad but it's definitely not perfect.

If I could get CM 11 to behave like that I'd switch right back to it. My problem wasn't that it would get stuck on 3G, it's that it would get stuck and not have any data connection until I either toggled data (e.g. airplane mode) or restarted. This would happen multiple times per day.
While I always clean flash, I never format my SD card. I assume this step has to be done separately from flashing, correct? Is it a best practice, or can just the Android folder (any others?) be deleted?

I did my internal storage wipe at the same time under advanced wipe in twrp (cache, dalvik, data, internal storage). I don't think it has to be done very often...I hadn't ever done it since the toroplus phone first came out so I had a lot of garbage and hierarchical messes all over the place (the 0 folder in 4.2 that was created...).
I doubt wiping the internal storage has any effect on the functioning of the data hand-offs; but I just don't know either.
Hi all,
Im on Viper Rom 6.2.1 Rom, Elite Lunar Kernel, and latest OTA radio.
My 4G connection is great when connected, I hit the 40s and 50s download speed.
The problem im having is that when the data connection is idle for like 30 seconds, all of a sudden I lose data connection. the 4G LTE logo is still showing but the download/upload activity arrows no longer flashes. It goes back when I turn mobile data off then on again. Then I lose connection again when idle.
What could be the problem?
Thanks

I just had a similar problem recently like this. Turns out i burned out my 4g sim card. Before changing roms or firmware i would suggest going into a VZW store and get a new one. They are free, they dont even look at the phone. Just tell them LTE connectivity isn't working correctly and that the sim card is bad. they will give you another one.

Thanks. I figure it was probably the sim card. I will try that.
I am having a similar situation. I have data loss after having hotspot on for a little while and any type of reboot is the only remedy (restart of shell, full reboot, adb reboot, etc). I already swapped Sims at the Verizon store, tried different roms, tried flashing different firmware and radio combinations. Any suggestions?

I too am having similar issues, though it appears more random than associated with using hotspot.
Every few hours, all radio connectivity but Wifi shuts off. I get the no service icon in the status bar. Only a reboot fixes the issue.
Running teamEcliptic Rom 4.4.3 v1.4, kernel: EliteLunar 3.4.10, baseband: 1.13.41.0421, build: 6.06.401.1.
Soff, unlocked, root, etc.
When I have time to spare plan to restore a stock rom (keeping S-off though) to see if that fixes the issue.
Any advice from those more versed in the One M7 would be appreciated!
