Hey guys,
Please dont flame if this doesnt work, BUT after i got a LOS event, i decided to go into the ##DATA# menu to just look around for any sort of settings to help.
I did ##data#, then EDIT, then enter your MSL. i went into Other>Multimedia, backed out, then DSS.
My radio reset itself and got reception/data back!
Give it a try next time u got a LOS problem and report back here....
Sean
I followed that all the way to the DSS. What do you mean by that?

Just going into the menus then back out did nothing.

Rebooting seems a lot simpler and less of a chance of screwing up any default settings. unless Samsung comes out with a new modem software , im sticking to rebooting. Besides, my phone doesn't really loose signal, only happened once so far since launch day. Just lucky I guess.
My phone gets LOS only when I'm in certain areas, and I used to do a reboot whenever I noticed it.
Now I just have a tasker profile set up so that whenever I get LOS, the phone reboots automatically, unless I'm using it. LOS doesn't bother me anymore.

Please show how you have done this. I can't seem to figure out how to set that variable.
This worked for my LOS issue but make sure you have the stock kernel before trying it.
Some users said this worked for them. I just tried it this morning so time will tell.
***I think you need the stock Kernel or else you might get a bootloop
The MSL can be found by downloading "terminal emulator" and typing "getprop ril.MSL" It is case sensitive.
From there, go to the phone, and type ##72786# , at the SCRTN screen select yes, let the phone reboot, let the activation go through its thing NOT TOUCHING THE SCREEN unless it tells you to. Let it do a reboot again.

Your radio will reset itself after making ANY changes in that menu (EPST).

I had the same idea, but wasn't sure how to go about it. So:
SHARE IT!
But seriously, give up the goods.
Has anyone tried locking the phone in roam using roam control? Im gonna try it and see if I still get LOS. I had another one today.

Yes. There's a 95% chance you'll get LOS. Some times, you can go into Roaming, but then when you try to go to Automatic, you'll get LOS. Because Roam Control itself's method of changing networks is turning off the radio. The issue is LOS prevents it from turning back on.
Haha sorry guys, I was asleep. Of course I'll share!
I made a new thread for this because I don't want to interrupt the OP's thread. It can be found here:

Cheers.
I haven't had LOS in over TWO WEEKS!!
All I did was odin the stock kernel on top of my stock rooted rom and voila the yellow triangle at boot up was gone.
I still have all my su permissions for wifi tether and other apps that need su permission. I only lost my cwm recovery, but I don't need that when the rom is stable, phone works perfect and does not LOS EVER!!!
Coming from the Evo 4G I had Juice Defender Ultimate installed on it and carried it over into the Epic Touch. For the longest time I was having issues with LOS and through trial and error and a couple flashed kernels and ROMS, at least one thing I do know now is that this program on extreme setting will kill signals on the Epic. IDK why this is because I used the extreme setting on the Evo. I changed it to "Aggressive" instead of Extreme and my issues with LOS are pretty much done.

Hey all, I was hoping someone else has had this issue and has fixed it. I'm running a stock unrooted phone and when I connect to wifi, it connects to the AP and obtains an IP, but I cannot go out to any website or use any app that needs a connection (facebook app, etc). Things I've done:
Restarted phone
Factory reset phone
rebooted router
Tried other roms
Sent to samsung (they did a SW update) x2
Forgot the network, then reconnected
This is getting extremely frustrating as it's been this way since I've had it, but it got worse with the ICS update. Anything that anyone has tried and actually worked? The funny thing is, when you reflash the phone or do a factory reset, it works for about an hour then stops. Thanks in advance!
Have you ever connected that phone to a different wifi?
I encountered an issue a few months back where something went wonky and i had to completely reset my router and set it back up. Have you tried that too?
sent from my T989 full of CM awesomeness and a touch of Venom from the Darkside!!
Yes, I've tried different wifi AP's and none of them have worked, while others are on them including mine at home. I have not reset the router and reconfigured it because it's a cisco and as such is a pita. I have looked through my config and cannot find anything obvious. But still, others are able to connect just fine.
Same issue here. Never noticed it until recently. Reflashed LE1 and it worked for a couple of days. Going to flash the galaxy note modem tomorrow.

Not since the last time it returned from Samsung. And it's completely stock and unrooted right now.
I did a factory reset and the wifi came back steady for the past day I was slot more selective with my apps as I think this may have been the issue.

I'm glad this worked for you. I can't tell you how many factory resets I've done and it fails every time within a day. I bit the bullet and did a t-mo warranty exchange. Seeing as so few people actually have this problem, I'm chalking it up to my having bad luck and got a lemon. I hope the new one works fine.

Hi all,
started this thread for people like me that don't post much, that can't ask questions in the Dev section. Got to get my post counts up, lol! I've been a member on here from when the Samsung Moment came out, so I'm no newb to flashing rom's, etc. ' Just saying'. Been trying to flash TBOMB 5.0 from last night and can't get my phone to boot up for the life of me. It starts, hangs, then it crashes before it's completed. Yes, I did everything I needed to do. LIH firmware, Wipe caches, factory reset, re-downloaded the file (2x) even flashed to complete stock and started over(2x). Still no go. Many are having good luck with this rom, what am I doing wrong here? Thanks in advance, for any info that could get me on the right track....
Anyone else needing help with this rom, you're more than welcome to use this thread for questions. :good:
That's weird. Did you reset your counter to 0 (zero) before flashing? I'm not sure if it makes a difference but you can try. I flashed over the leaked version of JB, only wiped caché and data caché. Didn't do any Factory Wipe/Reset because it was not in the instructions. You only need to Reset if you had any problems/issues with the rom. Everything works fine so far. Try those steps and see what happens. But do a nandroid before flashing.
Not to be rude, but are you waiting long enough? I remember reading in that thread after 5 was released that the boot animation was just straight black screen. That after a few minutes of nothing, it boots. Also, 5.1 was released this afternoon. Try that out.

I have been having trouble with trying to switch my lock screen wall paper. Did a dirty flash
of 5.1 over JB 5.0. But this is only on the lock screen. My home screen will change with no problems. Also for some reason I can't open the gallery app. This isn't to big of a deal as I use Quickpic but idk if they are related problems. When I try to use QP to set the wall paper it just asks me to crop the pic and that's it. I am sure I am overlooking something and would appreciate any help. Thanks

Thanks for your response. Yes, I did a counter reset when I went back to stock LI3.
DLed the 5.1 version of the rom after I posted this, flashed my phone, and now I'm good to go.
My phone didn't like something in the 5.0 version of this rom, might have been the kernel, don't think I had 2 bad downloads of this rom(5.0)......
Now I have hands on, the niceness I've been reading about. Thanks to all of you hard working Dev's, that keep our phones going by bringing us all these goodies. :good:

Battery Icon - Signal Icon - Date
I just flashed 5.1 over 4.3 today. Install went great, phone is dramatically faster did great on benchmark.
The issue I am having is that the signal icon, battery icon, ringer icon, time Do not show up right away on reboot. then all of a sudden it will just show up.
This actually happened on 4.3 also. If anyone has any ideas that would be great, and not to wipe and re-flash. I understand that ultimately that may be required but I am not looking at doing that right now.
Thanks.

Rocking JellyBomb Thanks to Teem VeNuM on My Sprint S3 xda Premium
Yes, this rom is awesome. The only thing I'm having trouble with is wi-fi tethering. I guess with this version of JB it is not possible to run tethering. Anyone else out there?
I called sprint and added wifi hotspots for $10.00 .After they allowed it I went to system update. Updated prn and profile and it works. I hope this helped

Is anyone having issues with setting up the s voice wakeup commands? It's like the microphone is deaf. S voice works with everything else. Just not that. I'm gonna flash 5.1 as soon as it downloads. But just in case it still doesn't works, I'm asking this question.
General Jellybomb install
This might help a couple of you. I install JellyBomb 5.1 yesterday (first rom flash, yay!!) and loving it.
I used Clockwork Recovery. I installed the LIH modem (?) first as they said. Factory reset, wipe, cache and wipe richvishervi (?). Install of the rom itself couldn't have taken more than 20 mins, but I did get a boot animation (I believe it's the boot animation form the international version G3).
The only issue I had was that my google calender wouldn't sync. To get round this I deselected calender from the google account and added a account using Microsoft Exchange with my google details. That was a work around that has worked for me.
I think I also have a problem with wifi tethering but I haven't looked into it properly.
One question I will ask is; I'd like to have the lock screen that has the circular unlock feature but I'm not sure how to get it. Any help would be appreciated.
If anyone is on the fence about installing this rom, I'm VERY happy with it. It's very customizable, it fast and it has been very easy on the battery so far. Well done Josh Beach.

Hey guys, I'm using the Galaxy S3 and my current carrier is Rogers. I've always been on 4G in the area that I'm in, and with the countless roms I've installed I've never come across any problems. Today I was trying out some new roms, but when I flashed them, I noticed that it swapped from 4G to E(aka Edge). Even if I flash back to my nandroid backup or even a fresh install if the previous rom I was using, I'm still stuck on Edge. Now even though it says I'm connected to Edge, never mind reduced speed, my internet just doesn't even work at all. For some reason even if I'm connected to wi-fi, no matter what I do it says there's no connection. I've read about flashing modems, which I have tried and it seems I'm doing it wrong? I put it on to my sd, boot in to recovery and flash it, but whenever I do I just go in to an endless boot loop. I've spent the past six hours pulling out my hair and trying to get this fixed but no solution yet, so now I've put my hope in to you guys! Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
P.S. I'm sorry if I can't reply back right away, I'm currently doing night shifts at work and even though it's 9:45am here, it's technically my bed time, so I will get back to you as soon as I can!
Some extra information if it may help - The rom I was using that worked properly was Triune 2, I've played around with a few roms since, but the one that originally swapped my 4g to Edge was Mark of the Dragon 3.0.
I can think of two possibilities:
1) Some ROMs will reset your phone's internal network settings to only use specific types of networks (e.g. when I first got my phone, the CM10 build I flashed at the time disabled LTE). You can check this by dialing *#*#4636#*#*, going into "Phone information", and scrolling down to "Set preferred network type"; you'll want one of the LTE settings.
2) Reportedly, your phone's IMEI will sometimes be erased during a ROM update (check this in the Settings -> About phone -> Status menu, or in the same "Phone information" menu as above). Check here if that happened.
Hey, I gave number 1 a shot and everything was fine, so I took a look at option 2 and my IMEI isn't gone, but it's showing "0". I searched online and it seems like "0" means it's been deleted, so I'm about to give it a go and see if I can get it up and running. Anyways, thanks for the reply! I'll post and update on how everything works out.
*UPDATE* Alright, problem fixed! I'm back at 4G, everything is running smooth and fast! Took a little bit but everything is working fine, and now I know how to fix this problem if it should arise again, thanks again for the help, I appreciate it!
Hey, I'm back again. Well, I thought the problem was fixed, I was back on 4G all day until a little after I started work at around 10:30pm when my network swapped back to Edge and it's been there since(now 6:57am). My IMEI is still intact as well. I've tried flashing back to stock with odin and injecting the file to see what happens but no luck. Unfortunately I haven't reached the 10 post marker which means I can't ask for help on that part of the forum yet, so here I am in your hands once again, any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated!

Out of curiosity, have you checked the "set preferred network type" setting again?
I've also heard recently that there may be some problems with Rogers APNs in non-standard ROMs, so it might be worth checking your APN settings.
Or, it could be an LTE network outage, unlikely as that seems...
Yes I have and everything is fine. However, I was looking around at a few things some other people have done, not with the exact problem I have, but similar, I tried something out and it worked. Dial *#197328640#>UMTS>DEBUG SCREEN>PHONE CONTROL>NETWORK CONTROL>BAND SELECTION>LTE BAND PREFERENCE>LTE ALL, let it sit there for about 30 seconds and then reset the phone. Do it again, go in to BAND SELECTION and then choose AUTOMATIC, wait 30 seconds and reboot your phone again. I'm back to 4g and actually, it seems faster than when I originally had 4G, but I think I'm just used to how slow Edge is now . Although the other fix got me back to 4G as well, but then it swapped back to Edge so I'll wait for at least 24 hours before I can confirm it completely fixed. Once again thanks for the response! Most helpful forums I've been on!
It hasn't been 24 hours but I thought I'd report back while I'm on my break. I'm still at 4G so things seems to be going well, hopefully it won't go back as it seems like it will stay at 4G. So, unless I'm having troubles again, rather than waiting the 24 hours and posting an update, think of it as a good thing that I don't report anything(or at least I will, since it's my phone ) Thanks again for the help, I appreciate it!

Also, I Don't think it is a placebo effect on the speed increase, cause mine is blazing fast after implementing this fix. You should maybe re-title the thread so others in this situation can find this fix, good find and thanks again!

Yes I have and everything is fine. However, I was looking around at a few things some other people have done, not with the exact problem I have, but similar, I tried something out and it worked. Dial *#197328640#>UMTS>DEBUG SCREEN>PHONE CONTROL>NETWORK CONTROL>BAND SELECTION>LTE BAND PREFERENCE>LTE ALL, let it sit there for about 30 seconds and then reset the phone. Do it again, go in to BAND SELECTION and then choose AUTOMATIC, wait 30 seconds and reboot your phone again. I'm back to 4g and actually, it seems faster than when I originally had 4G, but I think I'm just used to how slow Edge is now . Although the other fix got me back to 4G as well, but then it swapped back to Edge so I'll wait for at least 24 hours before I can confirm it completely fixed. Once again thanks for the response! Most helpful forums I've been on!

There used to be a different method on the forums but all posts involving how to inject imei and then restore data were removed.

2 things that i can think of...
1)Make sure you have the LTE option selected in your Mobile Networks.
2)Take a look at your APN settings for you carrier. Flashing roms sometimes erases these settings.
That's where i would look first...
Cheers

Please let me know if you fix this. I'm having the same problem, and playing with LTE band selection doesn't work. When I force the band selection, the phone won't even go into service. The same thing happens with WCDMA.
Apparently, the nvbackup stores more than the IMEI. Even when you replace the IMEI, nobody seems to get data back. Unless, of course, you had a backup. Which, unfortunately, I was not smart enough to do....
Hey guys, I have the exact same issue as this:
-I flashed CM10.2 from a CM10.1 nightly which wiped my IMEI. I injected the IMEI using NV-items reader/writer.
-Reloaded stock ICS rom, IMEI returned but couldn't get up from EDGE
-Tried using the peoplesarmy's removed IMEI restore tool, didn't do anything
The phone still works, only its on EDGE all the time.
Literally the only solution for me was using my warranty and getting a new phone.
REPEAT: BACKUP YOUR **** OR YOU GOTTA GET A NEW PHONE!
Ok so first off, been using XDA for a while now to root various things, you guys have always got me what I need to get things figured out on my own, I have never before this day had to request help and for that, you guys are legendary.
Now I am semi newbi here, I know whats what for the most part but I have a hard time holding information in my short term memory so I am sorry if I miss little things
On to the problem!
So I got an AT&T LG Nitro HD P930, on ebay, I then spent the better part of a day rooting it, took me a lot of work but I eventually got it rooted and all that jazz, everything was going great... but everything changed when the fire nation... wait no... when I put CM9 on it, that crashed quite often, so I put on CM11 to check that out, no Data, so I rolled back one to CM10.2, and still no Data.
Could I have missed something?
Edit:
I thought at one point the ImeI might have gotten pushed out, but I double checked that and it is there, I have noticed at times I look at the service and it says I have 4 bars and an E next to it like back in the 2G days, but rarely and I have not had it stay long enough to test the data but if I get the chance I will edit and leave what happened here.
Also to note, I do still get random crashes but I can live with that.
P.S.S. XDA Devs are the shiznit, thank you guys for many years of amazing rom's and HP Touchpad support, my tablet is nothing without you guys!
Potential fix
Ok so admitadly I may have jumped the gun on not finding anything via the search function, I did find something digging around that might help me out. just incase anyone else checks this thread due to the same issue I will post back here if it worked, I found the fix on this thread

Now to test it!
Issues "Unbricking"
So my second go around seems to be having trouble taking off, I cant seem to get the V10F to flash to my device following http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597488 exactly as it is. always just reboots into my old OS. Any advice?
Edit: Noticed I forgot to rename V10F correctly and tried again, seems to be running smoother, feel like a total noob...
Have you checked you apn settings ?
Fixed it

I had read something about that and had a backup of my APN but it turns out you cant flash APN data after 4.0+ or some such nonsense.
In the end I managed to get the root to take hold after restoring it from unbrick up, now I have CM9 on it and it is working just shiny. so this thread can be deleted or closed or whatnot.
If anyone would like a step by step on what I did I would be glad to post it but I doubt anyone is interested.
Good thing you got it working. And CM9 was so nice and stable for the Nitro. I often think of reverting back to it just for its reliability.

Its been a while since I did it but I will see if I cant gather all the resources I used, but in the end what I had to do was re-brick it, reverted back to stock everything to recover and re-rooted it all again, then I just skipped CM11 and went back to CM10. Now I am in a whole new **** storm haha but thats a story for another time.
