[Q] Network signal drop - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hello guys, first off I have an ATT S3 running the latest PA beta with quantum kernel.
Now my query, sometimes i have a strong signal and then it suddenly disappears, i mean from a strong signal to a no signal and it takes approximately 2 minutes to get it back again. My baseband is the latest anyways and i always have LTE on.
Btw even though i tried switching the signal mode it still doesn't work, any help would be appreciated thanks.

It has something to do with a LTE bug, many people have had it. I actually have it currently on my S3 with Quantum ROM.
From what I have found and read is that we have to go back to stock ROM, though it is "complicated" that it might brick our phones with an increased percentage... I am looking for guides on helping me go back to stock, but everything is so unorganized on here and many more experienced users don't like to help others who have problems. They just tell us what is needed without the aide that might help prevent a brick..
What I do know is that you need to go back to an old bootloader but you can't go back to an old bootloader..
I will be following this thread for some help, mine didn't get any help.

I have the same problem. Anyone have a fix?

I had the issue in the past. I fixed it by going back to stock with Odin. Some have said you can also fix by flashing a TW ROM. I have not tested it that way though.
Not sure but I believe going back to stock depends on which bootloader your on.

[Q] No Service, No Data, WiFi Slow...

So, i rooted my phone today, bricked it a couple times, then fixed it(this doesnt matter)
Ok, so i was really excited to get this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=864445
(I got the trinity, NOTthe Frozen one)
Long story:
So, I install the rom on my phone, no problems...but it seems I'm missing something and I've looked everywhere because i can't sign into Gmail, even with WiFi...Then again, I have no service...3g, or 4g, or for calling. Absolutely no bars in one of the strongest areas of my house. I'm thinking I'm missing some type of modem... I cant find it, I think i found it previously but from a different website, and they didn't even give instructions. Please help me because this is an awesome rom and I don't want to go back to stock rom.
Short story:
-no service, or data service, either.
-Missing some type of "modem" to enable data
-Airplane mode wont turn off. When clicked, it keeps going on and off. Please help!
Thanks in advance.
Not sure if this helps but I was getting major signal drop on 4g. Come to think of it 3g too. I don't think you are missing anything if it boots up and opens. Sometimes devs make tweaks internally that may not be known to us. I know when signal is constantly searching you get major battery drain

Well, at least it's not just me.
For me the only way I've found that reliable works is to Odin back to DI18 and start from scratch.
Unfortunately, I basically can't touch CWM afterwards, because doing anything in it seems to bring the bug back.
Hopefully there's a fix out there for those of us that are continually plagued by this rather bizarre issue.
Seems rather strange that reflashing the modem with Odin doesn't even do the trick.
Just to.let u know you said you bricked your phone a few times. If you brick a phone it doesn't come back. You can't brick a phone a couple times. To answer your question sounds lime you need to reflash the.modem. go into.settings and about phone and see what your baseband version is. It should the same as the software you are on. If you are on dk28 then it should be dk28. Also I would upgrade to eb13 since dk28 is ikd school now and to many bugs that were not fixed. Just my 2 cents. Good luck

Poor to none 3g speeds

So I'm fairly new to rooting and have been flashing a bunch of ROMs since I have and everything has worked fine but today I have noticed that I can very rarely get 3g in my house and a lot of the times its completely gone, I can't even get 1x. I have not messed with radios and I hadn't planned on doing so but what's going on here has anyone else had similar issues? I've flashed different ROMs after full wipes and still am having troubles. What gives?
Edit:
I am also getting really slow USB speeds. Like 10 minutes to put a nandroid backup onto my sd, this used to take a minute or less. What is happening and how can I fix my phone I'm going on vacation tomorrow I need it working
Do a full wipe in recovery, then flash this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087077
As far as slow SD speed, are you on an AOSP rom? If so, Chad's incredikernel will fix it. Look around on his thread, I think the latest release has it incorporated.
Yea I was trying MIUI so that's that problem.
Edit:
Whew you are a a life safer that brought back my great 3g speeds. I would like to know what exactly this did though and if I can flash new ROMs again and what might have happened to cause the problem.
Another cause for this to happen is that if u flash a Rom with Sprint source and u call the *228 it will mess your phone up and you will need to go back to the incredible official froyo to fix it... I had this issue my self ...

I thought I remembered hearing something about turning the phone on or off while in airplane mode causing this too, but I could be wrong. Glad that you got it working, if you have more questions feel free to ask.
I'm having problems with 3g as well. Has anyone tried applying this then going back to another rom?
It's my understanding that the GB leak fixes it, and you can go back to the rom of your choice after flashing it.

Signal turning on and off rapidly

My friend got a Galaxy nexus he brought from amazon and asked me to root, unlock and install jelly bean on it because he cant wait. He is though, just a fan of stock and has no idea of rooting or any development, so i flashed on his phone the ota (bigxie_maguro_JRN84D_v2-signed.zip) then a radio (CWM-RADIO-i9250-JB.zip)... it went okay for a few weeks then he noticed a problem where his signal turned on and off very rapidly... especially in 3g, but when shifted into 2g, his signal seems to be fine.. i asked him what he did but he said he did nothing in particular that could have affected the signal.. he doesnt use his root access though so i believe him. i tried flashing different radio, and it didnt work. so can any of you guys can help us? thanks a bunch
send it back if you can. I'm still trying to get a perfectly working Nexus
When I was having issues with my signal (my RIL and baseband did not match) I found this app mentioned in the modem thread https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sibbor.getril and it seems to have helped resolve the issue for me. Hopefully it'll be of some use for your friend if he is experiencing the same issue.

Back to "virgin" stock?

Hi all,
I'm having issues with very weak WIFI (unless I'm 2 feet from the router). My wifes note 2 (never been rooted) works completely fine. Side by side, she has full bars and I have a small green dot. I've tried many different roms and nothing helped. I used [ROM][RESTORE][5-12-13]Back to UNROOTED Stock with Auto Flash Count Reset, so I can bring it to Sprint. They tested it and said that there is nothing wrong and I couldn't use my insurance to get another phone.
Reading throught the forums, it seems like it's a software issue. I even tried copying a 4.1.1 Wifi folder and that didn't help. I thought of trying the LJC version of the back to unrooted stock to see if that helps.
Anyone have any ideas how to fix this issue? Now my 3g/4g signal is very weak. Been downloading speedtest app for about 5 minutes.
Right now, I'm on Paranoid version 3.92/ TWRP recovery.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Randy
Forget it.
I found a stock image and was able to odin it to the phone. The phone went through multiple updates. Now my 3g/4g signal is alot better but my wifi is still weak. Now off to try to solve that problem.

LG G3 back to JellyBean

This may have been posted, If so, sorry, I could not find it.
Now that that I have installed the T-mo Lollipoop update, my phone is a paperweight. As I don't suppose T-mo will replace it....
Is there anyway to roll the LG-G3 back to KitKat or whatever version it was on WHEN IT WORKED PERFECTLY?
Any help would be appreciated, it is useless as it is.

I ask this when fixing computers, why is it a paper weight lol.. whats wrong with the phone ? we need moar nfo ...
Paperweight
No or Spotty Wi/Fi
Cell signal has almost vanished (it I stand next to a T-mo tower I can get 5 bars for a minute)
Cell signal keeps dropping so the phone is constantly searching for a signal
Due to constantly searching for signals, the battery drain is actually watchable on the notification screen, about 1% a minute.
Phone will not stay connected long enough to complete a call.
All of these Issues happened after Lollipoop.
Hence, is there a way do "Upgrade" it back to Kit Kat.
I could not find anything on her about it. I did find a video on Youtube, but it was for a Verizon unit, not sure if it would be the same or not
I have two phones, same issue on both phones.

Unfortunately from my experiences and other people's experiences downgrading to Kitkat after Lollipop with data issues, you will still have those data issues when you go back to Kitkat. It seems going back to Kitkat via KDZ or TOT does not restore the modem or it does but the modem still does not function correctly. The only way to fix LTE and data issues was to flash Blisspop 2.3 and determining that data sticks on that rom. If it does, your data and modem issues should be resolved and you can use stock lollipop again. If you want to try this route here is my thread on how to fix it. Make sure you are rooted with twrp

Once I do that I will lose WiFi calling won't I?
It is my understanding once you over write T-mo's Rom you lose that.

Yes and No flashing blisspop rom will just fixed your data and LTE issues, I'm not telling you to keep the rom, that is entirely up to you. Yes keeping custom roms that are not stock will lose wifi calling and all the tmobile stuff. After you can confirm that LTE and data works you can then flash back to stock or restore to stock. That way you can still have Wifi calling and have a stock rom.
