3 days since Dutty AT&T ROM 6.. no more 3G..help!!!

I've tried several resets, I even restored a two day old backup made via spb backup and yes, have also gone into "connection setup" under connections and let it setup AT&T as my provider which subsequently asks for restarting the pda. Also, the HSDPA utility is still showing a check mark on HSPDA On.
All of the above have failed to get my phone back to 3G speeds. I've even tried to surf/download thinking maybe just the icon is showing "G" or "E" however its painstakingly slow now.
So, its either the "G" icon or "E" is what shows now. This all happened when I looked at my phone this morning after SPB backup had performed its scheduled backup that was triggered around 2:30am.
other than that... THIS IS AN AMAZING ROM BY DUTTYTHROY!! YOU RULE DUDE..
oh.. almost forgot: my radio is 1.27.14.09 which I've read that only works with the AT&T Tilt, which is what I have. Just an FYI.
Someone please help as I'm a heavy data user hence can't afford to be without 3G/HSDPA ... TY

Please - somebody tell me this isn't true!!!

Cite your sources.
I get 3G/HSDPA just fine on my Kaiser, whenever at&t actually built out some towers.

When I first tried this rom (radio 1.27.14.09) I lost all connection with AT&T but after several hours and traveling into another area everything seemed to fall back in place. I've also noticed that the phone is very slow to reconnect after passing through blacked out areas, not sure why other AT&T phones lose connection but come back online much faster.
Otherwise the ROM is great.
Is it possibly something to do with your rate plan?

EDIT: nevermind I'm using a diff rom I think

I personally don't have any issues on the network. I'm running Dutty No.6 AT&T. Does this problem apply to a CID unlocked phone, a SIM unlocked phone, or both?

It shouldn't be my rate plan as I have the PDA unlimited for $39.99. Also, here's an update. This morning when I woke up my Tilt it was still showing E and my wishful thinking of Santa giving me a pre-christmas gift by fixing my phone (I'm easy) were just about drowned. ...however out of nowhere and without doing anything to the phone like soft-reset etc., the 3G icon came back and now its been coming back intermittently..
Now I'm pretty sure that its not that I'm traveling in a non-3G area and thats why its coming back intermittently as I live in a decent size metro area of Jacksonville FL and also because the areas I've been to this morning have always had 3G.. unless I'm wrong.. which I sure hope so..
BTW: I "downgraded" my Radio to 11.17 last night itself as one of the things I was trying to fix this issue. Just an FYI.

Here it is in a nutshell!!
Please note the following:
1) Got my new (unlocked) tytn II on dec 12.
*Sim in at 6:00pm. Had 3g & hsdpa till 10:00 pm. Went to bed.
*Dec 13th could not make calls or connect to data while on 3g.
*Calls would disconnect. Hsdpa message "the answering modem has disconnected "
* Switched back to gsm mode. Phone works but no 3g or hsdpa support.
*Dec 14 called att. Customer service said "unknown device" not supported.
*Transfer to data tech " Stated unsupported device" cant add the pda data package for $39.95. Stated my imei was blocked from 3g & hsdpa because of unlocked device status. But edge & gsm would work. Note edge & gsm modes work.
*Data tech said go to att store and get another branded att 3g device and use it to activate the pda data plan.
*I did this at 2:30 pm est. It worked for about 1/2 hour till 3:00 pm est. So much for my $39.95.
*Called att again & got a product support specialist(pr guy haha).he stated:
2) Att will not support an unlocked device.
*I said what about my $39.95???? I also said that i was a paying us att customer and was willing to pay for the high speed service. He said that they could no change my device unlocked status within the att network even though i was willing to pay for the data plan. I was pissed at that point. I told him that the hardware supports 3g & hsdpa and stated that att had locked a paying customer out of the 3g network. He said again "att does not support unlocked devices". I then asked him why i had access to the gsm & edge network and why att supported me on it and not 3g or hsdpa? I must have stumped him because he put me on hold. His reply after talking his boss was "att wil not support an unlocked device. We went back & forth like this until I Said "THIS IS BULLSHIP & HUNG UP.
* He call me back about an hour later because i threatened to switch back to verizon an stated " if you had the att original rom and if the phone was carrier locked it may change my device status" I said that I would give it a shot.
* Got the orig. att rom from here. Used sspl to apply cid per the reverting instructions. Phone said att 3g on startup & cid-8. Still no 3g. flashed hspl and bact to duttys rom 7.b for now.
In summary I can get the 3g & hsdpa signal but nothing works when connected! CAN YOU SAY CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT!!!

3G Test on AT&T network
How can we test if we are getting 3G speeds after changing our ROMs? I see the 3G and H logo's but don't think I'm getting the speeds.
Does changing the ROM unlock our AT&T phones?
Is there a ROM that is transparent to AT&T and allow us to use the 3G speeds?
Will reverting back to the AT&T Rom allow us to get the 3G speeds again?
newbie

Are you on drugs? , AT&T unlocks their phones, that does not matter , the reps you were speaking with are retarded they use a BILLING SYSTEM called TELEGENCE if you enter a IMEI wrong or of a unlocked device it gives back a UNKNOWN device message which means pretty much the reps can and if they dont want to , wont help you get your data working because they are lazy as ****. they do not block data on phones nor can they monitor your device to know what you are doing. their HLR's are only one way addressable.

Ok, I just upgraded to this ROM (cus duttys roms are amazing) after I read your post and...
I ran into some connection problems after my programs started looking for "my ISP" (isp.cingular) instead of "MEdia Net" (wap.cingular) In "advanced settings" in "connections" I re-set programs to run off MEdia Net, and it seems all is well
I think it might have switched when I was screwing with the comm manager and turned G3 off
DISCLAIMER: I'm a noob so take my advice with a grain of salt haha

No probs w/ ATT
My unlocked phone works just fine on the ATT network and i constantly get 3G UMTS and HSDPA speeds. Att does not block any device you are able to use on their network as they have roaming contracts with cell phone service providers across the world. If your device does not receive 3g speeds you can have your imei number added to the ATT allowed database just call 611 from your phone and talk to the service rep. If they give you any problem then call back and tell them you want to add the imei number of a wireless data card for computer and they will add that for you.

Must have been smoking the glass pipe!
Sorry folks.
This is a reception problem for me.
ATT really jerked me around.
The problem is a weak 3g signal.
If i dont have four bars 3g & hspda fail.
I went & sat under an att tower and everything works.
As soon as I drive away from the tower and the signal strength drops I loose 3g calling & Hsdpa.
Is there a fix.

How about this quote straight from the at&t CEO?
http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/06/atandt-claims-completely-open-network-too-the-most-open-eve/
Digg and random bloggers aren't really a good source. I remember the bullfrap article on Digg about Hummers being more environmentally conservative over a lifetime than any other green car.

have you tired having your sim card replaced? I had a similar issue where i was not able to call or receive calls in 3g but could on edge for a good day. Went to ATT and found out that others were having same issue with kraiser had them replace my sim card and everything worked great after.

Got 3G back and for good.... so far!

thanks for the tip jellorice.. I actually got my 3G back since yesterday and its been working great ever since. As for the sim being faulty, Thats something I didn't even think of and now that you've mentioned it, I'll keep in mind for future troubleshooting as I'm sure some other issue will crop up.
Nevertheless, Dutty's ROM 6 is UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME!!! I'm sure Dutty's gotten numb to all the kudos he's got and still is getting, being in Gazillions... but I wish I had better words to describe this ROM as for someone like me who is virtually bringing food on the table because of the Tilt (heavy business user), the key strengths of his ROM are just Marvelous.
Sry for getting sidetracked.. I got a little exited there.

AIO Wireless [RESOLVED]

Well my contract ended today, so I decided to jump ship to AIO Wireless... Since T-Mobile is getting rid of their grandfathered plans and making people upgrade, I decided to leave, and join the Pre-Paid community :victory: -- Cant wait until the Nexus 5 drops haha..
I'm SuperCID'd sim unlocked (did it last night), rooted (been rooted for years, the sensation is not my first rodeo), and all that Jazz...
Anyways.. I did everything that I was supposed to get everything activated and working.. typed in the new APN settings and got my data working and all..
My problem is that i do not get connected to 3g or 4g... I called CS and they said that everything looks fine.. (they dunno whats going on).. go figure.
I have 2g. Its pissing me off...
Just wondering if anybody else made the switch and are having/had similar problems??
Thanks
EDIT: Well i called back hoping to get another person to talk to.. and that somebody told me that since my phone is from T-Mobile, I wont be allowed to use their 4g.. --- My question is now this -- Since my phone is unlocked, wouldnt i now be able to use AT&T's network?? Or is the phone itself still required to use TMO's frequency? I'm confused.
EDIT 2: Did more research around xda and found that i could change the modem to att's frequency bands.. I flashed the modems via terminal emulator and even put in canadian radios.. well, both didnt work. when i flashed the modems, they didnt change the bands.. I would need the international sensation that uses att bands for att to work (thats why i flashed the canadian radio just to see if that would work) This is probably why we dont hear anything about our tmo sensations getting used on other carriers because no one has successfully changed the modem.. We cant change the bands that our phone comes with.. Damn.
Well, I guess i have to live with 2g for a week or so until the nexus 5 drops.. Then i can just slap my sim card in there and experience LTE ) -- but in the mean time, ill be using wifi.

[HELP]Samsung Korean S8+ KT - SM-G955N TMobile Network Problem

Hello everyone, im new here kept searching everywhere for solution for my problem without any success. In may 10 i bought SM-G955N KT module, it was working great with 2g / 3g / 4g / LTE / LTE+, i went out of usa for almost 3 month and when i came back my phone doesn't work well with tmobile, i can send msgs use lte internet but i cant do calls at some areas, some times i have full lte bar and when i try to make a call it goes to 0 signal bar, i called tmobile many times about the issue but no solution i found out that they did upgrades to their towers in the period i was out of usa from may to august, right now i cant use the phone as any normal person its been a month that i cant use the phone at my house and some areas, i can make calls sometimes if im at different tower locations. Question is, is there any solution for this problem since tmobile did those tower upgrades its screwed up everything..... should move out to att or verizon or what should i do. I really need help with this problem its been a month, any solution would be welcome if it requires root or not i dont care i just want to find a solution for this,
Thank you.

Have you tried resetting your network settings and/or getting a new sim card?

Its not the sim card i already changed it to a new one also i tried it on a iphone 7s plus and it works fine, my phone is bone stock no root no custom software alsi its the korean version when i looked around i found that tmobile did some network upgrades from may to aug and thats when my phone got screwed up, i was albe to play with the ims setting and i got the phone to recive calls but i cant make calls, does my phone screwed up because it has the korean csc and the stock firmware or whats going on here

I'm not quite sure I understand your experience. From what I am reading, you went to Korea, got the G955N (which I bought for both myself and my wife), and then came back to the states and can't get it to work with T-Mobile?
I tried to get mine to work with T-Mobile and have experimented extensively with different CSCs and ROMs.
I eventually went over to AT&T
I've also had a rather extensive experience of how to get 4GLTE working here in the states with AT&T.
Feel free to reply here or DM me if you wish.

Hello thanks for your input, actually i bought the phone in the box brand new from amazon, it came here on may 10 i used it for 7 days 4G LTE 3G works great then i had to go out of country for 3 month i came back at the end of august to find that tmobile did a huge tower upgrades in my area, since i came back i wasnt able to do calls and receive calls, i was only able to text and use LTE internet but not calls, i went to different towers area and i actually was able to make calls but not in every area because some times my signal bar goes down to 0 or even 1 signal and i cant make calls still but my other friends who owns iphones or usa version of android works fine except me. Yesterday i edited the IMS setting im still on stock fw and i enabled every single feature there and i was able to receive calls in my area but still i cant do calls, i wanted to make sure if im gonna follow the steps here in this guide i will be able to use TMOBILE CSC with the korean stock firmware and get the features of tmobile as VOLTE and WIFI CALLING etc with the right CSC for sure and without tripping knox
Thank you

Hi, I did some extensive searching and was not able to find a solution for this.
I've got the SM-G955N, and ran into the same issues as other users in this thread with T-Mobile, has anyone found a workaround to unlock the LTE bands necessary to make the SM-G955N work with T-Mobile?

I didnt find solution yet too, i dont know what to do i gave up i tried everything on the official software no root.

I had a phone with the Korean CSC as well, N phone as well. I left the CSC alone and it worked with T-Mobile and ATT here in the US just fine, last fall.
I later changed the CSC to XXA, and still works well. Just tested it this week with T-Mobile, and it's working. I have to say, that locally, T-Mobile has much poorer spot area service than ATT. Kinda puzzling, but that is the way it is.
My phone is rooted, so it make things a bit more handy to mess about and return to my previous setups.

Data not working at all

So having recently upgraded from an unlocked T-Mobile device running on ATT, I was expecting that I would have better connectivity since the T-Mobile device I had didn't have support for a lot of bands. However I haven't had data work at all since setting up this phone.
Full disclosure, I'm on blackwireless. But it's an ATT mvno so I should still get their network.
But I'm getting zilch.
Talk and text are just fine, just no data.
I'm also not fully used to the interface on this phone cause my old one had actual "bars" in the icon and would also say LTE or 4g. Maybe both, is it sad that I've already forgotten just three days into owning a op7?
Firstly, anyone else an blackwireless, or ATT having issues with data?
Haven't yet called blackwireless because their support is 100% outsourced.

Had same with T-Mobile, it wanted me to sign in...and that page said this plan has no internet. So I called support, they ran a diagnosis but before it could finish ! Near the lte disappeared and it worked

Have you looked at your APN settings?
Sometimes it just doesn't select anything or it's empty!

You're right. That was the exact problem. I ended up calling the support line and it was a much better experience than I remember. And there were several apn to choose from. I just had to choose a different one according to their documentation.

Global version works just great with AT&T, no need to get tmo phone that just makes it more of a pain int the ass to go through the unlock process

I know. What I meant was my old phone was T-Mobile. My op7 I bought direct from OnePlus.com

running ok on Verizon?

Hey all, considering getting a new phone, and this one seems like a beast. Currently have a pixel 2XL. On Verizon.
given that there aren't many choices for an unlocked bootloader on Verizon, how is this one running? Call quality okay? Any problems with the CDMA data? with all those things in mind, any advice on what model or what source I should use to purchase the phone? Thanks.

Running fine, the unlocked version works on all the carriers, popped a sprint Sim and it worked for 30 seconds before Sim locked up unforantly no support on sprint unless one plus 7 pro 5g. T-mobile was terrible what ever reason, full bars 1mb speeds or call couldn't be placed. Best place to buy is direct oneplus.com

Yes it does. Got mine from OnePlus website. But Id recommend looking into how to tweak the sim cards settings to work better on verizon. Once I did that, ive been getting way faster network speeds. If you need help doing that let me know

id love to know about the sim settings. im on verizon... phone works better than i thought it would. I expected more areas with poor to no reception... instead i basically get the same coverage i did with my s10, but if i can make it better, i sure want to.
thanks

Likewise I would love to hear the tweaks for Verizon.

There is no cdma data. I've not missed it much except in the forests of Oregon. Turning on roaming got me service though on the extended network.
WiFi calling and Verizon video chat doesn't work.
Other than the pixel, about the only other choice on Verizon would be an unbranded Moto.
