[Q] Reception is weird whenever I flash a ROM - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Whenever I flash a ROM to my phone it won't get any LTE signal, or any internet signal for that matter. I flashed CM11 and now Paranoid Android but the same thing happens. I can send/receive messages and calls without a problem.
Wi-Fi works fine also

So it's just data that's messed up. Did you check your apn settings are right?

Can't get LTE back after ICS flash

Hey guys,
I followed the instructions for ICS flashing with my LT28i, had some ADB troubles but ultimately ICS installed fine. Now trying to flash with .111 baseband, Flashtool goes really fast through its process, says flashing is complete. Tried it twice already, and when i boot the phone back up an LTE option does not show up (gsm/wcdma/wcdma preferred+GSM). Phone connects to data and only shows me H icon.
are u in an LTE area? if so try a speed test.. u should be getting LTE speeds with that baseband... just b/c it doesn't show in network doesn't mean it doesn't work. at least thats what i gather from the other threads. i'm not in an LTE area so i can't test anyway.
Definitely getting HSPA speeds. Back on GB (.111) i got 40Mb down and 11 up, now getting 14D 3.6U. Maybe i need to score some 3rd party app to force bands?
Here's a fix for those who have the issue. Dial *#*#4636#*#* to get to the hidden service menu. Then go to phone information. From the list select LTE (preferred)/WCDMA/GSM. That should fix the issue. If it doesn't select LTE(preferred)/WCDMA/GSM, just turn off radio then turn it back on and select LTE(preferred)/WCDMA/GSM. If it all works, you should see 4g icon instead of the H next to the signal bars.
thanks for the responses. when im on that page what i see is LTE(preferred)/WCDMA/GSM. H icon next to data connection. Whether the radio is turned on or off i cannot change that option in order to change it back. Do you know if the config menu (the one that shows you active bands like LTE_BG5 and stuff) should actually say LTE, or is that just a soft-config? Those seem to be gone as well.
thanks

it should say 4g. not lte. It takes a couple of tries to change that option to LTE(preferred)/WCDMA/GSM
UPDATE: reverted to .111 then flashed .233 without baseband, 4G working well.

hey, im having the same prob. i flashed .111 then .233 like you did but am still having the same issue. my network type shows hspa:11, but does that indicate the network in my area?

Did you do a full wipe before flashing .111? If not try that.

ATT GS3 losing Data Network randomly

This is the Task650 and Ktoonsez AOKP. VERSION: d2att(4.1.2 JZ054K) from December 2nd release.
My data network goes in and out at random. It actually started happening about 4 days ago on an older build by Task650 & Ktoonsez but I saw the new one so wiped dalvik and Partition cache and rom'ed. Even after flashing the new ROM, data is acting the same way. It is completely random, happens when the phone is in use or when it is locked. I can tell when data connects for short spurts because I hear the notices for new emails. All in all today, I've maybe had 5 minutes of HSPA/3G data and the rest all I have is cellular network for calls. reception strong, and I am in areas where I always have good connection and speed.
Any ideas? Kind of frustrating if I am out to lunch and want to catch up on things (stuff is blocked at work). Also I am paying for data I can't use :/
fully wipe and reflash.. try a different modem

I am admittedly new to flashing, I just assumed everything was in the package. I flash the ROM and Gapps, is there a source for different modems?
This is definite disconnect of data DHTP. Can't get anywhere, and there is no symbol where there usually is on the reception bar. When it comes back for brief moments, it has either HSPA, 3g, etc.... on the bar.
are you able to send and receive calls? text?
I flashed that rom three days ago, and i had to replace it via warranty. it showed it had signal, but couldnt make any calls or text at all. then i Odin back to stock never worked again.
Don't think it has to do with any rom. Noticed that my wife's sgs3 has had a problem sending and receiving texts and the network drops a lot as well. She is completely stock with the jelly Bean update. My network has been a little suspect over the last few days also. Might just be the service.

Hey Guys, I may have found the culprit...sort of.
The wife has an iP5 and she said to me while we are driving to a holiday party 'I finally have official 4G LTE on my phone'. To which I of course ask what she means. Apparently the same day I started not being able to connect to data networks, is actually the day that ATT fired up their 4G LTE tower(s) in the Lehigh Valley area. When I do get data on occasion, it's when I bump down to 3G and HSPA. Unfortunately, the ROM has a bug where I cannot force it to look for just 3G, I go to save the setting and it immediately jumps back to LTE.
I may just have to flash to a version that definitely supports 4G LTE data. This issue occurred before I flashed to newest ROM, so it has something to do with the core build or modem that both versions use.
Ngriffin, if you find any successful modems please let me know. I like the ROM but I can't go without a data connection much longer.
So, for those who care, I flashed Gapps and also Flashed a new modem (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831898) version UCLG1 and it's a no go. A few in my area said it worked great for them so now I am a bit discouraged. Northeast Pennsilvania Area.

Versions tried:
LG1 -------------Did not work
LEM
LH9
LK3 -------------Works but only 3G data.

More info, tested using the Wife's Ip5 and realized we don;t have LTE at our house, so I'll have to wait until we get withing range of the LTE tower(s) to see if it has an issue. However, I now have data reliably.

That's normal. LTE is data only and isn't used for phone calls.
I've been running Task's AOKP on my SGS II and III for a while with no data issues. Check your APN settings. If you're in an LTE area, you should be able to sit on the ATT LTE APN and have no problems, even away from LTE coverage.

To update further, LK3 modem worked for a short while, but once I left the area of my immediate cell tower and it had to connect to another tower, it couldn't. I flashed ALL modems in my list a post above and NONE work. I'm kind of pissed right now.
Any ideas? I'll probably to a full backup and then flash a completely different ROM and cross my fingers. Is there an official JB stock ROM sans the bloatware that is stable and can connect to LTE (or any data network reliably for that matter)?
It was my APN *facepalm* Thanks for the suggestion. It was sitting on wap.cingular instead of the LTE and it was causing the issue. I'm on modem CLH1 and it is working, I have the 4G (3G) symbol now and data is connecting. Well, I learned something thanks! :victory:

I started having issues with mine about the same time. I haven't been able to figure it out yet. I had just gone to JB and flashed a new ROM. Then started noticing not just data being very spotty but also my calls (both incoming and outgoing) were very spotty too. Both seemed to only work about 50% of the time. I have since completely wiped and factory reset twice. I even Odin'ed back to a stock Rout66 jelly bean system but I still have issues
I have updated my APN to ATT PTA but that hasn't helped. What APN settings did you go with? Is ther some specific for LTE coverage? On the stock system now I can actually see the LTE icon when it actually chooses to connect.
Also, where did you find other modems. I was told in another forum not to flash any that weren't specific to Jelly Bean and all I have found is the stock I747UCDLK3 which is already on my phone. I did try flashing that seperately just to see if that would help but did not.
I need to get my phone working pronto as it is my main phone for both business and personal phone calls. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I thought they changed the APN to "ATT PHONE"? Trying to find those details now.

When you're on stock, only thing you can do is check with your carrier and they'll either tell you that it's something on their end being worked on or that your SIM card is faulty.
This happens to me on tasks AOKP ROM at least once per day, but it usually only happens when I turn on LTE. Basically what happens is the phone has cellular service but no data, after a few minutes it comes back. What I have noticed is that its to do with LTE so maybe there's a problem with that?

Task's AOKP doesn't set the default APN to LTE for Rogers so you might wanna make sure it's your default APN.

No 3g or wifi

Good morning,
I've been reading the forums for a while for solutions and tips but I am stumped on this one.
So I had stock Epic 4g (SPH-D700) on the Sprint network that was rooted and running CM 10.1 just fine. My USB connection broke so I bought a new motherboard so that I could switch to Cleartalk wireless, which required a connection for them to flash. They flashed the phone and while in stock, 3g data worked fine as well as phone calls and texting. Even stock though, with new motherboard, wifi did not work. It wouldn't even turn on to search for a connection. After rooting and flashing CM 10.1 while on the new Cleartalk network, 3g data now does not work and it gives me this error "unable to resolve host get.cm no address associated with hostname." Wifi still behaves the same. Calls and texts still work but I currently don't have any way to connect to the internet via 3g or wifi. Please help! I don't want to go back to stock just for connection.
Thank you!

Sounds like 2 issues here.
1. You probably forgot to connect the wifi antenna when you swapped motherboards.
2. You don't have your APNs configured for Cricket after flashing CM10.1.

1. I will double check this as soon as I can.
2. Any idea how I can go about configuring the APNs? I saw a solution where I backup the APN's with an app while in stock then restore once CM 10.1 is flashed. Will this work for me?

****, no it's not lol. Sorry, I misread. There isn't a ClearTalk thread in our dev forum that I'm aware of. You may want to search the entire XDA site and even Google for that carrier's APN info.

No problem. I will try some things and update this thread with the progress. Thanks again!
So it isn't the hardware connection for the wifi problem. I checked everything and it still didn't work. I even reinstalled the old motherboard to make sure I had all connections right and the wifi worked fine. I just discovered the Bluetooth also doesn't work.
I haven't tried repairing the APN yet, I will update after I try.
Using "APN Backup and Restore" did not work. The app runs and says it is successful but doesn't actually restore the APN's. Or it does and that isn't the problem.

[Q] Problem getting mobile data connectivity on Arc S runnig CM10

I can't access mobile data.. 2G or 3G on my phone since yesterday. Earlier, there used to be occasional signal drops, but toggling mobile data, airplane mode, or rebooting would resume the connection. My APN and account balance etc are OK. Now, voice call and wifi work ok, but elsewise, the signal bars stay greyed out, and 3G, G, H or E indicators never show - it's as if it isn't even attempting to connect to data. :crying: I also had a problem with the toggles on the notification screen not updating... i.e. showing on even though i's turned off as shown in settings menu. I wiped dalvik and cache today... but again, no change.
I tried my sim on another handset and got connectivity, though a very slow connection. This is a peak mobiole usage time here, so bandwidth may be clogged, but no connection altogether?
Any help on how to get back data connectivity would be really appreciated.
Can you please tell me if there is any way to pinpoint if this is a network deficiency or a hardware or software issue? Can the radio malfunction for only mobile data leaving voice and WiFi intact?
I'm running:
Anzu,

Why are you using BB64? For CM10 you should be using BB77 or above.

For JB, use BB85, although BB77 should work fine with it.

Actually, I got back data connectivity once before I could flash BB85.. so most probably network was a factor.
Anyway... I managed to flash BB85, and connection is quite nice, except for the persistent issue of occasional mobile data drops -(toggles not updating) . Thanks!
By toggles not updating, what I mean is If I connect the phone to 2G - and leave it, sometimes the phone will show no data connection and greyed out signal bars, even though data quick toggle is on. If I turn it off, it will not grey out. If I turn on wifi, though, the data toggle finally turns off.. and turning it on after that reconnects 2G. Any idea what causes this?

Bad signal and no data connection during calls.

So I've run into an issue that has come about after I've tried to flash custom roms and failed. Basically when I go back to stock roms my signal is very low and while I'm in calls i completely lose data connection or more specifically it switches to 3g. I'm not sure exactly how to fix this. I tried flashing the latest radio image from pie and currently I just took the time of flashing the factory images for pie to both slots but I seem to still have the problem. Any ideas why I'm having this issue? I ran into it before but fixed it somehow but I don't know what I did.

You have to enable Voice over LTE in settings (network/internet)
Otherwise the phone switches to 3G or even 2G during calls

Mobile network settings can vary depending on the network you're connected to. My Sprint looks different from both of yours.
