[Q] Epic 4g touch frustrating mobile data (3g) problem - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Hey guys,
Epic 4g touch D710 running liquid smooth 3.1 android 4.4.4.
Baseband version : EL29.
The problem lays on the mobile data, I will have 3g icon that appears on the signals bars but no actual internet, No browsing no data coming or going !!..
Some were suggesting going back to stock GB28 or GB27 and then re-flashing with ICS modem which i did but no joy, I'm still stuck with mobile data icon but no actual data.
One thing was noticed that when connecting through kitkat the IP address I get from the carrier is 10.0.35.225 but when I was on stock GB27 or GB28 I get something like this 205.168.53.26 and data is just working just fine, I have been reading for so long right now, it's really frustrating to see everyone talk about having a great working mobile data by doing some steps which I have already done.
My carrier is : Yemen Mobile which is equal to sprint in the US.
Any idea how to solve it please? Please see attachments..

[Q] Defy CM7 Data connectivity problem

Hello guys!
I have i little problem with my CM7: every time when i try to connect to internet via data networks it gets me the data connection error and it won't load.
I've searched for the right apn settings, i've tried to see if it was a problem with the browser, but nothing changed.
What to do? Thanks
Does somebody have the same problem?
did you try band switcher yet?

Defy as modem with Eclair?
Hi,
Can Defy with Android 2.1 act as model for dial-up connection to connect to PC? if yes then how?
Thanks in advance...
I also have problems with data connectivity as well. I don't have a data plan, but I use WiFi for all my internet needs. But in CM7 I could not for the life of me download a picture message. Download of message failed. I had to reflash back to xd1 to get it to download.
There is a problem with the data connectivity. Has anyone researched into this?
Yes, i've tryied the baseband switcher but with no luck
Any solutions?
Is anyone able to get data but having problems with over all speed? 3g acting like 2g? After I flashed cm7 i was stuck on edge. Found out about the baseband switcher and i have 3g back using USA baseband .9 but not the speed that goes with it. Right now I'm over my 200mb "4g" cap so i have to wait till the 5th for my cycle to start over. I got 3g back with 5mb left to my cap. So how is data working for you?
Flashed using
JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-11_BLUR_SIGN

[Q] Data stopped with 3G Signal ON

Hi, I've been following xda for a while but just recently registered. I searched the forums but didn't find any good answers/fixes.
In either case:
I've lost connectivity on my HTC EVO 4G. It's odd because the 3G signal indicator shows strong and the up/down arrows light up/dim. I'm running the latest CM7 supported nightly build and the Tiamat Kernel.
I was running a PRL for Verizon only roaming but heard rumors that 4G was in Phoenix. I did a backup of my ROM and restored a default android one then did the PRL update through the phone to get the most recent PRL from Sprint. Now in my CM7 rom and regular android ROM I can't connect to any data.
I tried re-wiping caches and restoring a second time to no avail.
Maybe I broke something in the ROM and just need to do a factory reset? Not a problem if that's necessary I have backups of all my stuff.
Any help for regaining service would be great! Thank you in advanced.
Well never mind I guess... just my luck as a Sysadmin once I ask about why it's broken it's fixed.
All data is back on my phone even after multiple reboots. Maybe PRL update didn't register on Sprints end? Don't know...
Thanks anyways everyone!
Happing to me too, it's a tower problem in my area. Nothing to do with your phone just Sprint's crappy network.

MetroPCS blocking data on flashed phones

I can confirm that MetroPCS is blocking flashed phones from using their 3G data network as of today, November 5, 2012. I had my Epic 4G slider flashed to Metro around 9 months ago. 3G worked up until today. I let my service lapse (for all of 12 hours) and after I paid to have it reconnected, my 3G no longer worked properly. It is actually still connected to the Metro 3G network and 3G shows in the top bar, but the only webpage accessible is a page titled "metropcs_tethering_message" which states:
"Per the Terms and Conditions of Service, Tethering / Mobile Hotspot is not currently supported. Please visit --- for terms and conditions of use."
To be clear, I am not tethering or using the phone as a hotspot... just trying to surf with the phone itself. The days of flashing to MetroPCS and using data seem to be over. I wonder if it has anything to do with their impending merge with T-Mobile?
Time for me to find another inexpensive call/text/data solution.
[email protected] MetroPCS!
Its been like that ever since they blocked tethering.. some cities were opted out from 3g before tethering was blocked. Requesting the desktop version of a site on a metro phone makes that same message appear. It's likely to be an easy workaround but worth the trouble? Certainly not. I suggest you take a look at the virgin mobile guide in my sig.

Well, an interesting development...
After buying a new (to me) GSM sim-based phone (LG Optimus G2X) and signing up with SimpleMobile, I was prepping my Epic 4G slider for sale and re-flashed my rom to the same custom rom I had been using for many months (ThunderHawk EG22 with Nubernel 2.6.35.7 kernel). After I did this, my data connection started working again. Might not stick, but it's been on for a couple hours now.
Now, this wasn't some glitch or bug in my system that caused the data connection to stop working as stated in my original post. I confirmed with MetroPCS that they were actively blocking my data connection, so it wasn't something wrong with my phone. However, after reflashing the rom, it works again! I'm still selling the phone though and moving on from GhettoPCS.
I'm posting this so anyone else who's had their data connection blocked can try reflashing their rom (even the same rom, apparently) to try to get their data connection back.
But once again, [email protected] MetroPCS for blocking flashed phones! Why do they care where we get our hardware to use on their shhitty service?

That may be the placebo effect, many outdated Epic Roms improperly displayed 3g icon when it was in fact 1x.. you should do a speedtest and verify its Evdo Rev A or Evdo RevB and not 1x..

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.
Modem coverage map (submitted by XDA users) https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msi...ll=40.898982,-75.992002&spn=0.052809,0.111494
Versions tried:
LG1 -------------Did not work
LEM
LH9
LK3 -------------Works but only 3G data.
LH1
CLI5
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.
EDIT:

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.

Loss of 3g and 4g data (mobile network state disconnected)

I have been having some serious issues with data ever since rooting and flashing custom ROM on my Galaxy SII which is on Boost Mobile. When i first got the phone before i did anything to it, i was getting pretty good 4g and 3g speeds. After rooting i noticed that my 4g and 3g speeds had dropped significantly. I called boost they said there is some work being done in my area, which i think was crap. I was running baked ROM 4.2.1 JB and it ran nicely but i had no 4g connection by this point and had only 3g connection but VERY slow. I thought to restore my saved backup of rooted stock and maybe my speeds will come back. NOPE 4g still doesnt work at all and NOW 3g doesn't work either. I've checked APNS it seems to be correct, but my connection status is still "mobile network state disconnected" . Oh, also i've tried flashing different modems and kernel repacks cause i know using custom stuff can bork ur 4g.
Can someone help please?

Right now i am on Stock Rooted, Using modem FI27. Before i was using baked ROM as my daily driver on FL24 Modem, thats when i noticed 4g had gone completely. I am using AGATs kernel FI27 repack. Its strange though my baseband says Fi27 but build number says FL24 on the end. Should it be that way?
oh btw my 3G came back, it just took forever to connect. But my 4g still wont work, it connects to the network but it still says "mobile network state disconnected".
