Cannot Enable 3G - HTC Desire S

Does anyone experience the same issue?
Before 3 days i turned off the 3G and now i try to enable it, but i cannot access any web page and also the icon from the status bar does not appear.
I don't know what's going wrong. But 3g is not enabled! :O

I just entered generic APN settings and 3G works.
But i don't know what cause this issue.
Does anyone experience similar issues?

How do you turn off the 3G?

i just unchecked the Mobile Network

I don't know how to solve this problem, if I were u i will wait for the rom update.

I've had this problem more than once since I bought the NS. Didn't bother changing the APNs as it was working before.
All I did was restart my phone and it fixed the problem.
I tried entering My apn but nothing works

I've got the same problem: no data connection whatsoever, reboot didn't fix it.
Happened to me once, Reflashing radio or backup didnt help... I ended up doing this.
It may help you
From the dialer, type:
*#*#4636#*#*
Select phone information
scroll to the bottom.
change the GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) to WCDMA only.
Reboot (Had to reboot 2x)
Once data was restored I changed the setting back to GSM/CDMA

[Q] WIFI and data issue

I've been looking in different forums and can't find an issue to this problem. I did find one thread that had a similar problem, but I didn't see a solution.
My problem is that sometimes when I turn my wifi on, the status bar will do the usual and show wifi and disconnect data. After a few seconds, the data icon will show back up and the status bar will show both wifi and data. However, I'm not able to connect to any webpage.
This problem just recently started happening, so it's not my router. I'm also running the latest RCMix ROM with Leedroid's latest kernel.
Thanks for any help.
Try using a different ROM, it might be the way your apn settings are set...
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
I also have this occasionally using the stock rom...but it lasts for only a couple minutes. I believe it is happening when the phone thinks it has lost WiFi or has barely a signal from the router...

[Q] Re-enabling 4G?

So, when I got the phone I wanted to turn 4G off to safe battery. So I went onto the market and downloaded the LTE On/off app and used it accordingly. However, I've changed multiple roms and now that I've re-installed the app and want to enable 4G again there is no option for it at all. LTE is not mentioned in any of the setting options. How can I enable 4G again or get the options to show?
What ROM you running? Had the same issue running Liquid.
Try fixing permissions?

Wireless settings, mobile networks, select network, cdma/auto or LTE. If that isn't there I don't know.

You shouldn't need the LTE on/off App
You can just go to the wireless and network settings and enable it there and you should see LTE and CDMA Auto select it and it should give you back 4G, unless of course it is down. Good luck.
Also try and uninstall the LTE on/off and re install might help also.

If for some reason, it's not accessible in mobile networks as mentioned above (it depends on the ROM you are using), it might be in the notifications > quick settings or you can dial *#*#4636#*#* on the phone and it will bring up those settings.
I'm running Liquid.
And it's not showing up in phone information, wireless settings or anything.

IIRC, not a setting in Liquids ROM. Above 4636 method works, 4G/LTE shows up as unknown. Be advised, last time I switched to 3G and tried switching back to 4G it would not connect, stayed on 3G. Had to reload a different rom and re-aquire 4G. Oh well, I just leave it on 4g. Btw, also running Liquid GB.
Doesn't really answer your question, more of a heads up.
Good luck

On Liquid GB 3.2
I am running Liquid GB 3.2 and here is how I was able to get my 4g back up and running:
Settings- Wireless and Networks-Mobile Networks- Network Mode- I set mine to CDMA+LTE/EvDo auto
I have played around with the different setting in the pop up menu after you hit Network Mode and the CDMA+LTE/EvDo auto seems to work the best for me.
Good luck and let me know if that helps solve the issue.

[Q] Mobile data disconnects frequently, does not reconnect on toggling

I'm surprised no one else has faced this problem. Mine and 2 other Explorers I have seen have it.
The mobile data gets disconnected on its own. The 'E' symbol from the network icon goes away. But mobile data is marked as enabled in the settings.
Sometimes, toggling mobile data a couple of times does the trick. Sometimes I have to toggle airplane mode then toggle data. Sometimes even this doesn't work and I have to reboot the phone to get data to work.
This disconnection happens every couple of hours, so it is a real pain.
I am using cm9, I had the problem on stock too and on every ROM I have tried.
I have tried marking the network type to 'GSM only' in the 'Testing' menu (from 'GSM/WCDMA auto') as I read somewhere that this solves the problem. Still no luck.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

check if your apn is correct or not,
or try to use another sim card
are you facing this problem when you lock your screen?

I guess my apn is correct, since net does work normally (ie. when I'm able to connect). I have tried two sim cards, and know 2 other people who have the same problem, one of them uses a different operator.

Not necessarily, sometimes it goes off while I'm browsing etc, and then just won't come back on. And keep data always on is enabled in settings, and I don't use any battery saving app.
Any idea what the problem is?
Which rom you are using now?
Check if you have data connection or not.
Did you try to connect internet using the same sim card with another mobile
If another mobile connects to internet then reflash your ROM or try another ROM
hit thanks if helped

/QUOTE]
I am using the unofficial cm9.
I have data connection right now. I have used this same sim with my Nokia phone before I got my Explorer without any issues.
Maybe it IS an operator issue, but then there should be many complaints from India about the same thing right?

whenever i flash new rom
data wrks fine
bt persinally i hv seen that wen i install twitter
it behaves like ur prob n dsnt mtter if i uninstall it
it kps on dscnncting randomly until i flash new rom
it's a network problem, I had the same issue once so I called the network service centre & they told me that they were upgrading the system & recommended me to use the data plan after few hours.. so after few hours I called again & they confirmed that the problem was solved..after that till now I have no disconnection issues.
With BSNL sim card, I have helped so many friends connect to internet properly by creating an APN "bsnlnet". By default HTC and all use the old APN (gprssouth.cellone.in). That connects for a while and disconnects.
And Nokia phones automatically receive a configuration setting message from BSNL but Android doesn't.

I've used cm9, cm10, cm10.1, aosp, aokp, jaggy, cm10.2 weekly. It's the same with my TATA DOCOMO sim. I ported to vodafone and with the correctly configured apn settings, its working great. It's definitely a provider problem and has been for the last 2 years.

P6200 WiFi Issue

Hey guys. This is my first thread here. So, I hope you can help me.
When I upgraded my GT+ to ICS then now to JB, I already had problems with the WiFi. I thought I would find the problem in the forums, but mine I think is different. There are two arrows in the WiFi indicator, the orange and the green ones. When these two arrows are both lighted up, it means that it is transferring data to the Tab or whatsoever so that I could connect to the Internet. Well, this is based on my understanding, hope you could still help me about this.
So, the problem is, whenever I open the internet and enter an URL, the green arrow stops blinking leaving the orange ones lighted up until both of them are already not blinking and then the browser says, "Webpage not available" (like the attachment below). It happens all the time and whenever I update my Apps in the Google Play, after, example: 23% of downloading the app, it stops and the same scenario happens again. What I do is, I will turn off the WiFi toggle and turn it on again and after, maybe 30 minutes, it happens again.
What do you think guys is the problem? Is it the router or modem's problem too? Or it is a software issue? Thank You guys! ))

Yes. I have tried it on my sister's S3 Mini. I never experienced that scenario when my GT+ was still Honeycomb. It just happened when I updated it to ICS.
These are also some happenings:
- When I will refresh the Accuweather widget, it will happen again. Both of the arrows will stop blinking.
- When I am updating 15 Apps (for example), again, Both of the arrows will stop blinking then it will stop downloading.
- When I am using Google Now then I said something, it will just show "Recognizing" then it sill show "No connection."
- When I am surfing the web and then I searched something, again the arrows will stop blinking, then the browser says, "Webpage is not available"
- When I am uploading photos to Facebook, same scenario again and then it will show, "No connection"
The WiFi is not disconnecting actually. It stays connected but it stops giving data. I'm suffering from this problem since ICS. I don't know what's really the source of this problem. That's why I'm seeking for help here in XDA. Thank youuuu.

Make sure you have the correct wifi frequency band set on your tab for your region/or router. I'm not sure if the stock Samsung roms let you configure it. In aosp builds it's in wifi and advanced menu.

In the Advanced menu, it only shows the IP and MAC Address. How can I know the correct frequency band? I posted an attachment for the picture of the Advanced Settings. )
It seems the problem come from your modem.
I had similar problem like this. My wifi router connect to modem and sometimes this modem does not allocate IP for router.
This problem is most likely related to IP configuration issues. Let try to use some apps to list down all configurations and check
I only experience this every after flashing roms coz my apn settings always gets edited, what I did before if i dont want problems with wifi every after flashing roms using odin was I copied my apn settinngs and edit the wrong apn settings after flashing, or I remove sim card before flashing but I made a copy of apn just to be sure

APN has nothing to do with wifi. APN applies to your cell data connection. 3g, LTE, etc. not to wifi.
