[Q] bad cell reception with CM10.2 - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Hello,
I am ready to pull my hair out! I installed the Cyanogenmod yesterday and my cell reception is terrible. I usually get full bars of 4g coverage in my driveway but nothing since install. I have an AirRave signal booster in the house and I get no data connectivity without wifi and 2 bars when I am standing right next to the signal booster. Different areas of town where I used to be able to count on full 3g coverage - 2 bars and no data. I don't know what to do. I am about to wipe and start over again. Any one, please help...
I have a Sprint GS3 SPH-L710

Did you dirty flash? I never had any problems with CM10.2 connectivity. You might have a bad download or something didn't get flashed correctly. I would do a clean install, ( wipe dalvik, cache, data) and re-download, flash the ROM and gapps .
GL!

newb...help
Thank you for the reply. I am not sure what a dirty flash is. I am new at this. I used the Cyanogenmod app to lead me through the process. So I could use some help with the terms, please.
Thanks again.

This should help you out some:

So I just did a reset and installed Cyanogenmod once more on my phone and still having and issue. I can only guess from the threads that I read that I did a clean flash. Any other thoughts.
Thanks again for the reply. I appreciate the help

Sound like an APN issue If your only having problems with your data. I've heard of ppl having to go and flash a TW ROM to update their APNs and get it working correctly again.

Hmm, that sounds promising. Does anyone know where to find a TW ROM that will work with my phone?

Check out the Cm10.2 thread, I know they were having issues Sept 20th to Oct 5th?? With data. The might be able to help you out.

Can you give me link to that thread? I'm having a devil of a time finding it..thanks

The above link is from the Note 2 forum (my phone). I was doing some scouting on the S3 (wife's phone) and saw this thread and thought of the one I linked.
I was having major data problems on cm10.2 even after I would go back to a touchwiz rom, update profile prl then do a "clean flash" of cm.
Problem is the way that touchwiz and cm handle the file system.
If you have a data problem in cm, flash a touchwiz ROM, update profile and prl, then go to your file explorer and delete the folder "sdcard/0/android/data/" (the only folder you need to delete is data - since I have everything on my external sdcard, I deleted the whole 0 folder.) Then do a real clean flash of cm and you should be just fine.
Obviously, if you're concerned about losing any data, back it all up before you do anything.

Thank you for the link. I am a little confused, being the newb that I am, do I have to flash a touch wiz rom to grab the APN? and then go back to CM? It seems like a lot of work...I know, nothing good comes easy...although I was hoping for a fix within CM.
Just another question, what's the harm in staying in CM and 3g only besides not being able to access LTE for the moment?

One thing I do know is any aosp ROM will have this problem. Something to do with ril or to that nature. I hunted a lot of threads on various sprint phones having the same problem.
I just stuck with tw cause the data speeds are so much better, in the same spot on aosp I get about 1.3mbs and tw about 5.5mbs. I hate tw to, can't stand it but it works

not really that time consuming. do a backup of your cm. flash atw. update prl and profile grab apn. back it up. restore cm backup. then restore apn. take no more then 20 minutes.

[Q] Lost data after rooting/flashing newest ota (rooted)

Hi guys I'm new to the EVO and trying to help my friend out with his. Some background is it was on stock latest OTA .3. I unlocked bootloader through HTC's tool then downgraded back to 2.2 and used unrevoked forever to regain root/s-off. I then upgraded back to latest OTA rooted/tweaked from Team Notcurnals rom. The radio basically does not work, no 3g at all. In the 2.2 rom it worked fine. So I tried updating to latest radio/hboot/nv/pri etc. Through flashable zip Found on this forum as well. They all flashed fine and updated the radio, but still nothing works. It has the signal bar like its got a signal but no data whatsoever. Lastly I tried flashing Tiamat's kernel, but it would not even boot up with it (Stuck at white HTC screen).
Any help is appreciated, I come from the Incredible so never ran into these problems before.
First off tiamat is an aosp kernel not sense. Assuming you made a backup before you flashed the TN rom,I would suggest going back to that backup or a different rom and see if the dataworks. Are you wiping everything except SD card a couple times for safe measure? I would also suggest using amon ra for recovery.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Thanks for your reply, the data does work in the 2.2 rom I had on it before flashing the TN rom. I did not make a backup of it as I had just used the RUU to get it. so no Root or anything at that point. I can easily get back to it if need be. There is no data or anything that needs to be saved on this phone at the moment.
Is there a flashable zip for amon ra recovery? Right now I have CWM
EDIT: Found Amon RA, am flashing it now.

This is what I use and it has worked flawlessly for me. I use the 3.0.7
After installing new recovery
Just wipe everything twice except SD card and try reflashing your TN rom. If the data is still borked try a different rom or try downloading it again as it might've been a bad download.

I did not try Myns warm 2.2 yet, but I've tried about 4 other roms so far. I did update the Radio and such, but no profile or PRL (Thats the one within the phone under settings > system updates right?) When I try those it fails every time. It almost seems like a problem with the account with sprint or something at this point, I verified radio is up to date. I'm going to have my friend contact sprint about his account just make sure its still in good working order,
Phone calls dont work anymore either, it says "your account cant be validated" ... Maybe all this is just cause of his account.... I'll look into it now and post an update as soon as i find out.
if it says account cannot be validated, that means theres an issue with the account. either the phone is not on the account or service has been suspended.
Yup account issue, glad I asked if you could make calls lol

OK so had him call Sprint and turns out it was on there end... he got it taken care of and now service is restored to the phone... works on all roms now. That was bad timing I guess...
I really want to say thank you so much for your help. It would have taken me much longer to find this out otherwise.

[Q] Paranoid Android ROM Help!

Hello all. I wish I could post this in the actual thread, but I am a new user with less than 10 posts haha! But I am having an issue with Paranoid Android ROM booting. I have tried like every way imaginable. Here is the logcat form my phone: h t t p :// pastebin.com/mukxdDDM. So does anyone have any sort of idea as to what is goin on? I'm starting to learn my way around Android code and I still don't have much of a clue. Thanks for your help!
Flash cm9 sign in the works.. I then wipe everything format system and flash are u on mtd or what?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I'm having the same problem, friend.
I am. I have been on cm9 for a long time. I tried flashing cm9 clean first and flashing PA but to no avail.
I had this problem when I tried restoring to the paranoid. I fixed it by clean installing aokp with nyan v5, then clean installing paranoid and Google apps nothing else in twrp recovery and it booted. It should work in cwm also but I have not used cwm for a while because twrp is easier although a bit buggier.
My recommendation would be odin back to stock and then odin cwm and flash
I got it to boot once, but it was missing the notification bar. I redownloaded it, but now it gets stuck at the boot animation, and the phone gets warm to the touch.
Edit: Tried CM9 first twice after fully wiping. I hope to get this working, because it looked pretty cool...

[Q] Anything other than a TW and my camera just wont work, Help?

Hi there!
I have had an s3 for a few days now and love it!.
Any TW rom and my camera works just fantastic.
Any cm10/aokp/miui/etc rom and I just cant use the camera no matter what app I use to try it, whether it be the built in app or camera360/etc.
Driving me nuts and would love someone to help me. Anyway research I have done hasnt told me what I'm doing wrong.
I wipe cache/dalvik/factory reset/system before each rom. I have tried different kernels but nothing has helped.
Any gurus out there have any ideas on what I can do to fix this?
Your install process would be and please link the files you are flashing... I'll try and help you. I've seen a few people mention this the past couple days.
The most recent I tried to flash was Illusion v1.1.18 - (d2tmo, d2att & d2vzw) - 1|18|13 from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2037028
I downloaded Illusion-v1.1.18-d2tmo.zip and gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip.
I went into recovery which is twrp and the most recent version. I installed it with the goo.im app.
When in recovery I did:
1) Factory Wipe
2) Wipe Cache
3) Wipe Dalvik
4) Wipe System
I would then click Install and select the rom file, and after it succesfully flashed I would then flash the gapps file. All were successful.
I would then reboot and the rom would boot up fine. I setup my google account and all that then for the heck of it I would reboot.
I then would try the camera app and it would complain that it couldnt connect to the camera basically. I went into the play store and tried a free version of camera 360, puddle camera, etc and all would not work.
I went back into recovery, wiped cache and dalvik again, hopped on one foot, faced east, and clicked my heels together. Upon reboot the camera does not work.
I have wiped all that and tried to install [Kernel][JB] Leankernel: Minimalistic Kernel for D2TMO/D2ATT (AOSP) v2.3 [1/17/13] which flashed fine. Upon reboot I could change voltages to undervolt, mess with governors but cameras still do not work.
I have a backup of two TW roms (one stock) and both of the those roms work beautifully with whatever camera I try, including the built in/stock camera.
I hoped I didn't leave out something. If there is something I missed than I'm an idiot because it seems like I am really missing something.
Thanks for your help.
I don't see any reason your steps lead to that, the exact steps I take every time to flash. I'm researching but in the mean time, go to app manager and wipe cache and data from gallery... Are you using the same Gapps over and over on each try? Might wanna try a different set.

I did that earlier with no luck.
I just force stopped on gallery, wiped cache/data, rebooted, and I tried the camera only to get the same message.
Thank you for that tip but I will continue my research also.
Just because I looked at about phone.
Model of phone is SGH-T999 (just in case someone thinks I'm in the wrong forum"

I have downloaded this gapps twice for the last rom http://goo.im/devs/itsmikeramsay/gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip.
For the miui rom there was a gapps that was specific to miui and had miui in the name. The miui rom's camera didnt work.
I'll look for a different gapps if that might be the problem but since I have tried a couple roms and a few different gapps I feel that might not be the issue.
I still will give it another try though. Just have to find another gapps to try.
try these just in case they're corrupted. http://d-h.st/dtk these are the ones I use

[Q] AxisM ROM Question {Solved}

Have any one of you tried the AxisM ROM, it was previously called GalaxyMOD I believe. I usually don't flash Universal ROMs, the only one I tried before this was Hyperdrive which I kinda liked but wanted to wait until the bugs are ironed out but I did give this ROM a try because I saw one of our dev (the awesome grue) on the team members list (team synergy).
The issue is the ROM doesn't boot at all, it's not stuck at samsung logo or anything, I see the samsung logo and it goes blank, nothing happens. Please let me know if any of you guys got it to work. Would be awesome if Grue can make it work for us since he is on their team as well.
Here is the link to the ROM.

I just figured it wouldn't hurt to try. I haven't tried it but being it is Verizon branded but universal I figured flashing a kernel might help too. Never hurts to try though, just nandroid back if need be.

Downloaded KT747 and now back to flashing again. I have a slimbean backedup anyway. Will report back if I get it working.
On a sidenote, if I do get it booting but like the other user said have FC's, what other good kernels for TW do we have as alternatives? Agat & Lean Kernel 2.9?
I guess I could try freeza's optimized stock kernel as well.
EDIT: Ok, Flashed AxisM zip, Selected Sprint option and the dev picks option for apps, unchecked reboot option, flashed KT747 latest (4-11 I think) and it booted fine. No FC's until now. Phone and data working, data is a bit slow than usual though. Haven't tested anything esle but it looks pretty sweet.
Glad you got it buddy.

And right when I was almost high on AxisM listening to Deftones Tempest, SystemUI started FC'ing.
I'm gonna try few other kernel options over the day and see if anything works better.

It's not an at&t only ROM. It's a universal ROM, like Hyperdrive that you can see on our forums. And I've been running it since yesterday morning and it's running pretty well. There is an another one called Synergy ROM, so 3 roms AFAIK that you can flash on any carrier S3.

No I have not tried that, will do it tonight when I can get my hands on the phone.
Well the infamous wipes were a no go also....so I wiped everything once again did a fresh install of the PAC man ROM by jay dub and it wasn't on there so I'm wondering if it has something to do with the touchwiz ROM Idk to be honest tho it really confuses me on why no one else is having the issue it was on my wife's phone that I was having the issue on so I'm going to try and reproduce the issue on my phone later

Wipe didnt work here also, its a stock rom that i have with the issue.
I was having it with every jellybean touchwiz based rom

I just flashed the stock rom released by Telus through ODIN. Getting same screen. No idea what to do or what's causing this.
I did a formate/wipe cache in recovery.

I actually called Samsung about it and they said it needs to be professionally reflashed by them which is stupid cuz I just got my phone back after they had it for 4 weeks he said its a software issue

flashed multiple Roms on this, the only way i can get rid of the info on screen is by going back to 4.0.4. has anyone come to figure out where this is coming from?
Little late
Okay so i know its late but if anyones feels the need to go back to stock heres the fix:
-Have root access
-Use titanium backup to find Systeminfo 4.1.2
-Clearing data will remove that
-You should only need to do this every boot
Not sure if you can remove this program, but that would eliminate the problem

I know its an old thread, but i am wondering if any one can shed some light as to why this system info screen appears, i was able to get rid of it by just deleting the file from titanium backup, no visible problems what so ever , data, phone, mms, every thing works as it should.
Just wondering why it popped up after odin back to stock..
Also I've read a few other samsung forums, and they relate this info screen to either; permanent safe mode due to imei faking, or corrupted efs drive/partition or some what.
Fyi, with the imei faking there would be no data/cellular services.
So I'm going with that something might be wrong with my efs? Maybe?
I had the same issue. I fixed it by restoring efs from a TRWP efs backup.
When I had this system screen show up it also flashed below it on startup that factory mode was on. If you go to youtube and search "Samsung Galaxy S4 : How to Get out of Factory Mode" it may help those without a efs backup
