Ok, I know I have complained about this before but when I am connected to mobile data I do not get what I am supposed to get.
I don't get "H" "4g"or "3g"all I get is
"1x"and "E"which sucks because the speed blows.
All I would like to know if there is a fix for this because I have had 4g with the stock rom and now I am on cdma which is odd
I also cannot select a band when I go into the "*#*#4636#*#*"menu -> phone information -> menu button-> select band
What I get is a "select [unsuccessful] (whichever band) message and sometimes a force close.
I don't know what to do any more because I made sure that the apn settings were correct and that I was connected to a tmobile network provider
Someone help please help me
Thanks in advance, googleme1

I would like to know this too because all I get is edge. If I reset connections, my phone picks up 4g and within a minute I'm back on Edge. It sucks. But what are the correct settings for above as I am using CM7 RC1.

Try to get a baseband switcher. I'm on the defy and that did the job.

Well the g2x is relatively new and from my knowledge there isn't any basebands for it as well as radios...although there are some for the
Lg o2x which will probably brick my phone

Sorry that no one has attempted to answer your question. I've ran into this exact issue before. Redownload the rom and reflash it again. Once the phone boot up do not touch the phone for about 5-10 minutes! This step is important! Let the software settle in. Once its settled in then reboot the phone and then wait till your carrier (T-Mobile) pop up and then unlock the phone and depending on your area's coverage you shall now have 3g-4g signal.

T-Mobile is undergoing technical issues from a phone call I made over to them. They said that they are working on resolving the issue ASAP and that it should be within a couple of hours.

Your welcome and completely restart every single step you took to get the rom on the phone. That includes redownloading the rom and then reflashing it and just wait 5-10 minutes once it reboots. The reason why I say redo the step completely is because it could of been a bad download, a bad flash or just that you didn't give the software sometime to settle so to eliminate all possible issues do the whole step over completely!

so I love my cappy.
but sometimes, probably 1/10 or 1/15 calls I will hit call someone, It will say calling them, then a few seconds later it will not call them.... like it cant connect to the towers or something, this is when i have service... I dont really ever drop calls when im on the phone, but sometimes they drop before the call is made...
reasoning for this or fix?
THanks
JL3 modem if that matters.
Someone downloading torrents or streaming HD movies got priority over your phone call.
I'm sure thats not what happens

This is a tough one since I'm sure there are a number of factors that might cause this. I did however have a similar issue as you. I changed to a different modem and cleared cache and dalvik cache and it seemed to have fixed it cuz it has not happened since. I'm not sure this will fix your issue but it's worth a shot. Good luck
IM Now on JL2 I believe with same result. 1 out of every ten or so calls doesn't connect. How do I wipe those caches?

Just boot into recovery and select "wipe cache partition" and then go into advanced clockwork menu and select "wipe dalvik cache"
It might just be AT$T being crappy like normal. This has happened to me on a dumb phone, a BB and this. I have used a few different modems with the same results
Does this happen to yall every once in a while when someone calls it comes through but I can't hear them and they cant hear me like it actually isn't connected.
No, I don't recall the not being able to hear the caller or them me problem.

Have you tried JK4 yet? I've had good results running that modem. If you decide to flash jk4 wipe both the cache's again before you flash. If that still doesn't fix it maybe just try going back to stock and re flashing the rom again. If you haven't already done so, try installing sgs tools and using the secret code section to see what your band selection and gsm status is like.
Haven't tried jk4 yet. Tryed clearing caches, still did it today.

I applied the sgstools fix, enabled the gps, but nav still would not lock on. So I opened maps, let it find my location and settle in until it was accurate, the opened up navigation and it worked fine... No more "Searching for GPS"
Might work for you also...and it's an easy fix.

i followed the instructions using launcher pro and set it to "auto" and it seemed to work. i still have to wait a while to get a lock sometimes, but thats tmobiles fault. they suck in my area. hope this helps anyone else having this problem.
EDIT: It only works once. does anyone else have the locking problem for bionix frost? i can try to reflash my phone and see if that fixes it.
All of a sudden my 3g network quit working! For some reason, I'm also unable to receive sms messages, though I AM able to make calls. The up arrow on the 3G indicator flashes constantly, obviously indicating I'm trying to access data, which I am, but the down arrow stays inactive except for a few random flashes (just once and then a few minutes of nothing again). I've tried toggling airplane mode, turning mobile network on/off, rebooting the phone and I even went as far as resetting, all to no avail. This is my home where I have NEVER had any troubles with 3g. Occasionally, the phone does recieve data for long enough to load a page or anything else but the majority is just getting network errors and failures to load. If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Ok. Honestly,you need to be rooted.LOL. Seriously,it sounds like a network error. I would call customer service,and ask for technical support. If you are with Sprint,ask for technical support. They should be able to walk you through it. Do any of your friends have same phone and network? Check with them,and see if they are having the same issues. You stated that you did a factory data reset,can't remember if that requires reboot. Sure it does,though.Also, try doing a battery pull.

Not since the factory reset. Anyway, to be honest I cant find apn settings anywhere. From what I understand it should be settings>wireless & networks>mobile networks> But "Access Point Names" is missing.
I'm using an infuse 4g with JB 4.2.1 cm ROM. I unlocked my phone and put in a T-Mobile prepaid sim.
I'm supposed to have 4g consistently but I'm getting 2g(edge), 3g(umts) and on very rare occasions I get 3g(HSDPA)... Its approximately 70%-%20-%10, respectively. And these changes are all happening in the same household. No tower switching.
I only have the option to switch on 2g only in my network mode settings on cm10... APN settings are correct and all T-Mobile can say is that I won't get 4g if the tower doesn't support it..
Are there any possible solutions to obtain 4g at all?
If so, how do I keep it on all the time?
Do I need to install a new modem?
If so, which?
Any comments and/or answers would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Also, I know the modem is for WiFi but does it affect carrier data? If not what can I change to affect my data connection?

I always thought the opposite. I thought modems were only for mobile data. But does switching modems help?

Could increase or decrease your signal and rate at which data is downloaded and uploaded depending on your modem of choice. Battery life is also affected minimally (usually).

Yeah that's what I'm thinking but when I called T-Mobile, they said that they cannot diagnose a non-tmobile phone. The only info that they can give me is that they assume its my location and possibly the modem but they cannot guarantee switching modems will work. Doubt they hack phones though, Lol

from my recollection..not from experience:
T-mobile or networks other than AT&T will only give you: edge or 3g.
No 4g or hpsa+
to get better than 3g, you need to be on AT&T
When the phone is on "H" I ran a speed test and its pushing 5 to 7 mb download speed. Is that close to 4g?
Any advice on how to stabilize the network?
