So lately I've been having this problem where all of a sudden I won't be able to send text messages, so I was trying to troubleshoot and I noticed that when that is happening the 3G icon is still present but status shows 0 dBm and that I'm still connected to CDMA rev A but nothing works, not even internet I literally have to restart my phone to get it to work properly again.
Anybody got ne ideas?

*228 prl update?
also, what are you running on your phone. more details will be helpful. If you are running a custom kernel / rom try a different kernel.
I've done the prl update.
I'm running the mesmerize 6/16 Heinz 57 rom with the OTB 1.6 from nemesis.
I'm also heavily undervolted.

Try increasing your voltages, and see if the problem is fixed...

Will do I wonder why undervolting would effect the radio.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
I would imagine that undervolting the processor could affect any part of the phone, including signal searching. You also might want to just try a different kernel. I have had good results with peanut butter and others. I know people were having trouble with OTB 1.6 in that particular release.
Also, you might try adjusting settings as perscribed in this thread, though I don't know much about the hidden menu:

I had an opposite issue from you last week (was stuck roaming and could not get onto cellular south towers). I fixed it following steps from dfgas.
Since you have h57 rom, you can try the following:
menu->tsm parts-> hidden menu ->data debug -> hdr/1x selection (if it asks for a code at any point, it's '000000').
Toggle the setting. For me toggling cdma/hybrid got me off of roaming when i was stuck. After the fact, I noticed setting it to evdo only would put me on roaming (I do this at work to get 3g, since Csouth doesn't have 3g at my plant)
Hope this helps.

Is anyone making any progress on this issue? Any OTA based ROMs work perfectly. Any ROMs based on CM7 refuse to activate mobile data.
They also are unable to read the mobile number or the VM service center number from the SIM card. I think the two are related.

Did you set your apn and enable it? I'm sure you did but need to ask.
Yes, the APN is set (green dot) and mobile data is enabled. I've tried setting and then unsetting airplane mode to try to get mobile data going.
I've also tried getril to make sure the ril and baseband match. I've also dropped Stk.apk from the OTA rom into /system/app on CM7 to no effect.
This is both in the release version and 174 nightly.
I'm on T-Mobile and data works, but it's definitely not as stable as the factory based roms. I always thought it had something to do with not being able to read the sim card information too.
Data on CBW
Hi,
I had a similar problem. You have to both put in the correct APNs (search online - CBW support center gives out most of the values)
But you also need to go into *#*#4636#*#* (4635 spells 'info'). Select the phone information button and scroll down to "SMSC". You'll have to search online to see what the correct value is (it doesn't display it otherwise I would just read it off for you). Search for a website that gives it in hex values. Input that hex value and restart your phone. That should fix both data and SMS if I am not mistaken.
Hope that helps
Okay so here's the SMSC from my working ROM:
002B00310035003100330032003400300030003100340030
Going to give it a shot.

Putting in the SMSC didn't seem to make a difference. I'm going to experiment more tonight.

I pulled that SMSC number from the OTA T-Mobile ROM. With working data and SMS on cinbell. I have a feeling that it doesn't mean what we think it means.

I run stock GB 2.3.3. rooted and I get data on all carriers in Thailand. I get 3/4G with TOT3G and Edge with AIS, DTAC and True.
You should have no problem getting data by simply entering the correct apn. Also on Cincinnati Bell bell you should be getting 3G+ data.
Maybe I didn't say it clearly enough. I get working data including 4g on any ROM based on the 2.3.3 OTA. Weapon, rooted OTA, debloated, etc. I only fail to get data on ROMs based on CM7.
And yes, the APN information is right. I've even tried making a new APN entry with the settings that work on OTA ROMs.
It's like the radio isn't working right in CM7.

well i am new to this and i have the same issue, i first tried to install cm7 172 and had no signal what so ever but i could connect to wifi, so then i started over and used cm7 182 and still no signal, soo, then i reflashed gingerbread 2.3.4 rooted, still no signal, so then i called tmobile and asked them if everything on their side looked right and they said it did.
so i conclude that it is whatever we are not doing
that being said i hope some one can tell us what to do cause afterwards ill make a tutorial for those of us who go thread to thread looking for answears

I've tried that RIL matches.
I'm seriously wondering if it's the radio baseband. I've got the July 2011 tmobile version. V21E RIL matches.

I have an answer, or at least a work-around. Can't claim credit for it, read it on the Cyanogenmod forums.
In the apn settings, fill in EVERYTHING. Even PAP/CHAP. Save. Then go back and clear out the ones that should be empty. Save again. It will start working.
There must be an APN field that doesn't start null in the CM7 base, that T-Mobile uses that CinBell doesn't. That would explain why T-Mobile users never experienced this issue.
I've narrowed it down some more. Authentication type needs explicitly set to none. I'm submitting a change request to CyanogenMod.

Thank you for posting this Terry, this got data working on my newly rooted g2x on cincinnati bell with the MIUI 1.25.11 ROM. However my MMS settings must be screwed up as I'm still unable to send MMS messages. I'll keep tooling with it, but for now data is as it should be. Thanks again.

You saved my day!
It now works.
It have to be fixed, as I'm using the latest nightly (20130301) and it's still a bug, and this is the latest available CM version for p999.
Rather than bump up my old thread - first read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1317575
Went 3 days without dropping data.
1. Root, 2. set to R/W 3. make a folder under /mnt called "radio" (all lower case, no spaces, no quotes, etc).
Gotta leave it as R/W... but it seems to be working.
If this works I'm going to hump you til you love me

Yes it has both files in it 3G and LTE.
I am running GBE. Maybe that's VZW fix for data drop issue. I'm still droppin dats tho. Thanks for trying to help.

What about the read/write thing? I tried that when I noticed I was getting the errors in the error log. What's your log looking like? Any errors? I'm almost willing to try flashing a GB rom and checking it out. But I start stock and work my way up.
So far it's working for me. I normally get 4g for a minute or two before it switches to 3g/1x or dies. I toggled airplane mode and Now it's been on 4g and hasn't gone to 3g/1x since.
EDIT: It switches to 3g every now and then but thats alright.
I flashed EE4 radios on EP3 rooted and have a much more stable signal. Rarely drops out.
Edit: no sooner than posting this I drop data. I have that folder though.
Nevermind re read and its not what I thought
I get many data dropouts daily running EP3HA debloated.
Went to check that I have the /mnt/radio folder, it's there, both LTE and 3G log files are in there, and Root Explorer tells me that the content is already set to R/W.
Still waiting on Samsung for a solution I guess..
GC FE 2.0 with PBJT kernel and ep3 modems. The radio folder was missing for me... will report back on any changes
Sent from my SCH-I510 using Tapatalk
Did not notice any change from adding this folder. Also, the folder would be gone after each time I restarted the phone.
Not long after (unsure if there is a correlation, doubt it) EP3 modems started dropping data excessively. Re-ODINed the modems and all is well now.
So recently seemingly randomly, my rocket tries to say I have lte when I should only have 4g. I live near DC, but not close enough for lte. So when I try to send a text, it often fails and needs me to resend it. For someone who sends 25k a month, this is ridiculous. I'm not sure if the whole device is breaking or if the lte and texting issues are related. Help??

Change to gsm/hspa only in mobile networks, then it will disable the LTE radio, problem solved
When I go to mobile network settings, I don't see any options to be able to change it to either of those options. There's not much of anything that I can even change there. Is my version /build different from yours?

What ROM/kernel combination are you running? An FP1 ROM with an EP4 kernel, or vice versa, will cause that exact problem.
EDIT: To be clear, Wifi and LTE are completely, 100% unrelated. You'll get the wifi error on a mixed rom/kernel regardless of radio settings.

Did you happen to put the jellybomb theme on? Because if thats the case then using phone info with that theme seems to cause issues. Only solution for that is to restore to a nandroid and pray it works.
