This happened to me yesterday due to.....wait for it....solar flares. I was ready to throw my phone out the window. Then I saw the 6 o'clock news and they said it was happening to a ton of folks. Mine has been fine since yesterday evening. Not saying it's the same but it does sound similar.

3G download problem. HELP!!!!!

I have suddenly been having problems with my 3g. I look at the symbol in the status bar and it will upload but it will not download. It's almost like the code is stuck in a loop. It will randomly start to work again for awhile and then act up later. I have wiped dalvik, cache, and I even reflashed my ROM (FREE GS3). I updated profile and PRL. That was even a problem because I would get an error since it wouldn't download. Before I flash back to stock and call sprint, does anybody have any ideas? One other note. I have driven through LTE areas and both downloads and uploads work with no problem.

Before reflashing call Sprint and see if they are doing tower improvements, this can cause that when they are working in things
I'm going to flash stock and unroot to see if that helps. I work 75 miles from my house and have experienced the problem at homd and at work so I'm pretty sure it's not a tower issue.

Try updating PRL and Profile then restart the phone? That may help, I mean if it does then you just saved like an hour of resetting and restoring. If it doesn't then you just wasted maybe 2 minutes.

I've tried this with the exception of rebooting my phone right afterwards. I just updated my PRL but I could not update my profile. I got an error. I'm running out of options
I appreciate everybody's help though.

Sprint GS3 FAQ THREAD
Happens to me when I shut off data for any length of time....I just reboot...and it works fine
I called Sprint and they couldn't fix it. I switched the network mode to CDMA from CDMA/LTE and it worked flawlessly. I don't know what that means but something told me my LTE and 3G weren't playing nicely. Whenever I go through a 4G area, it works to perfection. Then I get back in a 3G area and back to the same old thing.
I forgot to mention I flashed to stock unrooted and it seemed to function better but the problem still existed.

I have the same problem I have no idea what to do. I have a custom ROM the only way I get it to work is when I toggle Data on and off really fast. I didn't try the CDMA only though. Either way it's no excuse why our phone's are acting like this.
There was a DATA_HANDOFF.ZIP floating around somewhere....it was made for AOSP but if you make a backup and flash it, it might do some good
I had the same problem. In your phone key pad enter ##72786#. Its going to do hands free activation, prl update, profile update, firmware update (at that point you can cancel)

you need to read up on how to change the prl. download dfs demo version and that will allow you to do it. I am on a sprint note 2 with full bars and 3g on pageplus. you need verizon 3g keys to get full 3g if not then you will go in and out of 1x. for dfs to work you need to go into your phone and dial ##diag#.tap on qualcomm usb settings then click on DM+Modem+adb then connect phone to computer and open dfs. lots of info doing this so use google to help.
Oh tgabks for the info but ive aldready did all that I was up late last night flashing it and I think I got a little crazy minded . .all is well now I just had to flash a different prl apparntly rhe the one I was using was old thanks for the help mod please shut down the thread

HELP, no connection after flight from NC to TX

Hey all,
I could really use some advice. I live in North Carolina, my phone has worked just fine for over a year. Monday I went on a business trip to Dallas Texas and my phone won't connect to Voice or Data services at all. What can I do?
I tried turning airplane mode on and off, removing the battery, chatted with Sprint online, called the Support number. Sprint is NO help at all. They didn't outright tell me that my phone was broken, but practically did. I guess it just magically broke on the plane to Dallas??
Even in areas with good coverage, like my bars show good connection, I can't connect. I can hook to wifi just fine, but that is it. Sprint support told me that they can't even see where my phone has connected at all since I arrived in Texas.
Should I try flashing one of those PRLs from another thread? I'm not sure what to do. I assume that as is my phone will start working again when I get back to North Carolina though. I tried reflashing a "stock" rom and some of those "#" number calls, but none of them work since my phone isn't connected to any towers. Help!

That is what is so strange, I can dial that number, even from a stock rom, and my phone doesn't do anything, it just sits on "dialing" then makes the hang up noise after 15 or so seconds.
That's definitely weird! I'm from this area so I know it's not the water...lol. Have u taken to an actual sprint store?

Not yet, since I'm here on business I don't have much time to do that, but honestly I don't think they would be able to do much more than the support person over the phone did. I'd have to unroot it and all of that before bringing it in, the folks in the store would try those ## type calls, wipe my phone and reset it, then probably tell me my phone is broken and try to sell me another phone, especially since I am eligible for an upgrade.
I don't want to actually buy a new phone until I get back to NC since I still think my phone will start working once I am back there, which would be just as confusing.
This is the same phone I brought here to Texas last October and it worked fine, so I don't know what exactly the issue could be.

If you are still having this issue I would suggest you try an app called Network Signal Refresher. It basicly updates your prl and profile by connecting you to the nearest tower

Thanks, I gave this a try, but it doesn't look like it worked. Part of the issueI think even for PRL updates is that my phone won't connect to the towers. Like with a Stock Rom in the Sprint Zone you can get to that section where you can do a Profile update and all of that, it always fails with a connection error. I gave that error message to Sprint support but they couldn't do anything with it. I will keep trying it though now and then.

Is there a good updated guide for doing that? I did that on my EVO 4G, but never on the S3. I haven't looked yet but I will check into it this evening for sure.
They could be working on the towers in the area. When they did in my area, it showed I had bars but could not text or call. I would try flashing the 2 PRL, as it helped me get my phone working until they fixed it or in your case until you get Home. I can upload it if you need it.

Oh to have your problem haha. Yes I have 3g on it. Sprint hasn't finished updating the Raleigh area, so I get spotty LTE. In fact, due to their handoff bug, I only get lte for a few seconds before it switches back to 3g (on previous roms)

Which baseband you got? I doubt we have different ones, since the phone I think only has 2 modems out.
Edit: After looking at the post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451426 I don't know how to distinguish v7 and v8. Regardless, I highly doubt that's the issue.
Have you tried changing your Preferred network type? Mine is set to "Global" On occasion, I've seen Data enabled turned off seemingly spontaneously on other devices, sooo check that too

actually when i reflashed with new gapps I had Global/3g/2g/LTE as my network options. after it goes out, all I have is LTE/3g/2g and anything but LTE kills radio.
I wonder whats going on. Maybe google is restoring some type of data?
i know the guy who flashed yesterday and had it working, lost data after some time, and I wonder if he ran into same issue I had.

It sounds like the ROM doesn't know how/when to fall back onto 3g to answer phone calls. Did you try 3G or 1x only to test calls?

it switched fine initially. showed 3g in status bar, sent SMS. started a call.
once the preferred network changes, anything but LTE kills the radio. "Emergency Calls Only" is what the status is in the quicktiles. With a blank radio signal indicator.

so i can go into the *#*#4636#*#* menu via the dialer and change the radio mode to EvDO only and get 3g and can make calls and send SMS. If I choose CDMA/LTE it transitions to the LTE network then ****s the bed and won't send SMS or make phone calls. It does send MMS and have fully functioning data on LTE. However, then its just a tablet.
I'm going to wipe and reflash again, as I did mess with a whole bunch of crap now and see if I can get anything figured out.
Any ideas?

Baseband display number is the same from ZV7 to ZV8, hoping LG gives us an actual name for the next one.
What version of gapps are you guys using for this?

Signal dropping constantly

So my mom has this phone, and me and my sister have HTC ones. Our phones work fine at home, and we just got Lte coverage a few days ago, so that's been nice. However, my mom's phone recently has been dropping basically every call no matter where she is or how much service it says she has. The signal bars show a red x, and usually given time the service will come back, but sometimes it takes a restart. I've tried updating profile and prl, and the best the people at the sprint store could do was tell me that there is supposed to be a software update coming to fix it. The phone is completely stock. It doesn't seem like the network cause the other phones work fine. Has anyone else had this issue? Any ideas on what we could try?

You must have weak LTE signal. Go to Settings>More>Mobile Networks and tick it to CDMA. If she wants LTE she'll have to do this manually.

You can try to flash the ZVC radio from here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230106 but you'd have to root/unlock.
Other option is to LGNPST in the same thread under "Additional info". That's about all I got.
