[Q] How to repair my 3G? (samsung omnia 7) - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I don't know why, without reason, my 3G connection doesn't work anymore. It isn't the interop unlock, because i had already this problem before. I tried to use 3g repair.xap, network profile a lot of time and to set the apn, but i can't connect. What should I do?

Take it from me, do a back up and then soft reset you will spend less time doing it that way than trying to fix it; I speak from experience. Also how did you preform your interop unlock? On mine I use the HTC Connection Setup deal and it freak out for no reason and my 3G would be gone, this time after I did the unlock I simply uninstalled it, the unlock remains but I don't have to worry about my 3G anymore.

phone loses cellular data settings

I am sort of at a loss. My Surround is losing it's celluar data settings every time I turn it off and boot it back up. The signal bars do no E, or G, or H or anything else. If I am not connected to wifi there is no data at all. Speaking of wi-fi, it also does not maintain most of my saved networks. The only one is does is the one at work.
I first ran into this after Mango RTM upgraded to final. I was having other issues (e.g. music search not working) and blamed it on the upgrade. At the time I WAS able to use the HTC connection setup to configure the cellular data connection. I finally did a complete wipe on it a couple of weeks ago; I flashed back to the original ROM release and let it spend the next couple of hours updating back to Mango. Everything seemed fine but in the last couple of days I have found the problem has returned. To make matters worse, I can't even seem to download the HTC connection setup app anymore.
I have tried multiple soft resets, battery pulls, booting up without the SIM and then booting up with it, etc. Anyone have any ideas on what is causing this and how to fix it? The phone is pretty useless as a smartphone without a data connection.

Try that rom :] You need to do a RSPL / HSPL thing first;

I suggest downgrading to a lower firmware and then doing so :] Mine does it from time to time aswell, Usually gets fixed when I--
1; get a call
2; turn wifi on or off
3; airplane mode
But even if it doesnt show the network type, It always works

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks. 1, 2, and 3 definitely don't fix it. It might be worth going with the custom ROM just so that it's unlocked and saves me from having to pay for the official unlock down the road sometime. One other thing is that around the same time I started getting some screen wonkiness. I would be trying to type something and the keyboard kept minimizing back to the bottom every few characters. Mainly only affected text messages though.
I decided to call AT&T to see if they might be able to force a refresh of the data settings. Since I've called them before on the problem the guy thinks it best to replace the phone. Guess we'll see what happens. May still do the ROM you suggested once I get it though.
Bleeping bleep bleep phone! Someone in a different thread suggested HTC might be able to help with an issue like this. Only solution they gave was a hard reset so I finally did that on I think it was Thurs or Fri. Everything was dandy at first. Fast forward to today and I notice this evening that my phone had lost it's settings again and once more I can't get them back. I also notice that it ate my saved wifi networks again.
I have the refurb device AT&T sent and I suppose I will go ahead and try to use it. I just hate having to set everything up...again. It's really getting old. Could my SIM card be to blame?
Haha. Going to be attending the local WP Insider Circle thing next week. Maybe I'll get lucky and win a new phone.

Wifi problems after Interop unlock/Tethering

I have a Samsung Focus v1.3 and it is dev unlocked. I decided to do the interop unlock/tethering hack and now I have problems with my wifi. The hack worked fine. I can connect to my network via wifi and get on the internet. It works for a few minutes but seems to just stop and not work after a few minutes or after my phone locks up. I can turn wifi off and on again and it works, but only temporarily. I have to use 3g now all the time and it is not an issue cause I have unlimited data but it's not as fast as my home network. I am wondering if anyone else has noticed this or if there is a setting that needs to be adjusted after I installed it. I also installed the advanced config tool but did not change any of the setting except to tell me when I have 3g+. I can change that back but the problem still exists. Any help would be appreciated, and thanks in advance. I can give more detailed information about my setup if needed.
i had a similiar issue on my hd7 after the last update that was released by htc. exact same issue with wifi. I ended up resetting to factory defaults and reload my apps/emails on and all is good . no more problems. you may wanna try doing that

[Q] 3G/Wifi don't work together

Hi guys,
My wifi/3G problem started with the 8107 update (Omnia7, not KK2), and i read about others have the same issue too.
The wifi connects to my home/work wlan, and strangely sometimes (but that's rare) working, and get pages to load on, but after a while it still shows the connection, but can't load any page in IE.
After i have done a hard reset, and reverted back to 7740, i don't got any problem to connect to my home wifi. I decided to update one more time to 8107. (If something will go wrong then I have a backup of my Omnia7 with WP7 Easy Backup).
@8107 the wifi keeps giving errors if 3G data connection and wifi is also turned on!
If i switch off and back the data connection switch (!!), then the wlan works again for a while. If i switch data totally off then works flawlessly.
I think the problem is only appearing if the 3G and Wifi is also switched on (maybe the OS doesn't handle properly the network settings in this situation)
Any workaround for that?
Maybe a homebrew, that can switch off data connection temporarily, if the phone is connected to a wifi network, and after disconnecting it will switching back. But I think if it can be done, than just on fully-unlocked roms (i have Omnia7, and unfortunately DFT SammyRainbow is not ready yet)
Or are there any registry entry that I can use to set this?
So any suggestions what to do?
I second that. Exactly the same behavior on HTC 7 Mozart since 8107 :-(
Happening to me too, Optus branded Omnia 7, 8107. WiFi works fine as soon as I turn data off, but its getting really annoying!
Have you guys interop unlocked? Im wondering if its related to that.

HTC ONE S: No data signal

Hello. All of a sudden my HTC ONE S is getting no data signal. I still get calls and text but when i use the internet (chrome,instagram,facebook), i get connection lost, couldnt refresh feeds, or unable to connect to the internet. Even when im on wifi, its really slow, pages wont load or takes long to load. And its not our wifi connection at home because everyone else phone is fine. Any idea how to fix this without wiping everything? please help. Thanks in advance.
HTC ONE S: Tmobile US.
Have you tried removing and replacing your SIM card?
Do you have trouble downloading stuff from the Google Playstore? It keeps timing out on me. Won't let me down anything until I force stop, disable, and re enable. The bigger issue is that it followed me back to a sense rom and I'm still having trouble downloading.
option 1: contact your carrier and let them give you the access point and mms settings
option 2: root your phone and install a custom rom
option 3: wipe all data (hard reset phone)
Mate you should root your phone to avail ONE S power, most carriers branded roms and phones are limited and crappy.

[Q] Possible APN problem

Hi!
My girlfriend (who is forever having problems with phones) just bought a Nexus 5 after her Galaxy S2 spontaneously gave up on life, but despite showing a full signal it seems to be unable to connect to a network (it's supposed to be on the UK's Orange network). When it first started up she said it had a screen saying something like 'activate data services', but that after 10 minutes or sitting on that screen and apparently stuck, she skipped it. The phone is showing a full strength signal, but no calls/texts or data works.
We've been unable to get back to that screen, even after doing a factory reset with/without the SIM inserted.
Anyway, I figured it was an APN issue, so I've tried setting it up for her, but whenever I create a new APN and try to save it, it just disappears and loses all of my settings. I've had a look around XDA and it seems a few others have been having the same issue, but nobody I've seen has posted a fix. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Edit

Tried it with my SIM in her phone and it works fine, so I guess it's a SIM issue. Sorry about that. She can call the phone company tomorrow.
