I just flashed BHS on my Inspire. When I go to connect to the wifi router, it shows a strong signal. However, when I select connect, the signal drops to no bars and times out. My Vivid connects fine, my Inspire connected fine before the flash. I tried it a few times and nothing doing so I decided to go back to my previous rom until I could figure it out. However, I gather something on it as well. Any ideas as to what is happening or has happened? I wod have posted this in the roms thread but it did it on 2 different roms. Could it have to do with me forgetting to full wipe prior to both flashes?

Ok look at these pictures, it shows me that I'm connected to LTE, even though I have a bad signal yet I get no 4G icon and no data. I'm very confused because it was working fine but then just stopped, are my modem settings messed up? Because when have I have Rev. A. set to eHRPD I get nothing so I have it on Rev. A. To enable, and when I put radio to cdma(PRL) I at least get 3G, but no 4G when I'm set to LTE/evdo as you can see in the pics, even though it says I'm connected. So are my settings messed up in another way? I have tried restores different roms, and have even put on the new radio, no luck, I don't think its a faulty phone because it was working before and now it still shows it recognizes the LTE, but I get no 4G in the status bar, so I'm very confused, I really don't feel like unrooting just to get it replaced because I think I'm just missing some setting or something. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Turn airplane mode on, wait 3 minutes, turn it off, and you should be good to go. As 4G continues to roll out, there are bound to be bugs and hickups.
-95 signal strength is really weak. i wouldnt be surprised if it didnt register because the signal is so weak. i guess the bigger question would be why isnt it switching to 3g when the signal is so poor
I have a similar issue. My 4G icon will be visible and it will be working. I deliver pizzas so I leave the phone in my car tethered to my XOOM. When I get back to my car everything will look fine but my data wont be working. Sometimes if I try to go to a website on my phone within a minute or so it will recover, but I've been having to do the airplane mode thing. It works but still takes several minutes to get internet back. I'm in Las Vegas and 4G works just fine. I started having the problem recently. I think when BAMF went to the latest RUU base, the LTE/3G transition fixes seem to have had the opposite effect.

What are your Radio versions. I am presently reverting my radios since my problems started when I updated to the latest ones.

I installed the radio that came with das bamf 1.5, but i was still having issues before
I have tried both radios and I'm getting the same results. I'm sure something going with the network. We just have to be patient and give them time.
others on xda have asked this, but my issue is slightly different
at home i have no wifi problems at all, it connects instantly and has a fast connection
at a friend's house, i can connect to the wifi router but i actually have no throughput...i 'forgot' the network, rescanned and added with no change...i restarted the phone, took the batter out, checked all settings on the router iself, changed channel, no change
2 friends next to me could connect no problem (HTC Desire with GB ARHD, and a HTC Sensation GB stock)....and i'm sitting there with an ICS Sensation and no data throughput
i could connect to the same router on the same phone with a rooted GB ROM last week
any guesses/suggestions??

Are you running Darkforest at the moment?
Are all ICS roms the same?
Have you tried wiping cache & Dalvik?
yes I am running Darkforest...I have wiped cache + dalvik multiple times, but are you suggesting I should do that the next time I have this issue? ill try that, but how would that help?

I have been having this problem with both of my Nexus S 4G ever since I got them 2 months ago.
My data drops out frequently and takes a while to get back up. If I have 4G enabled, then I have to manually reconnect it as it will not do it on it's own. This happens inside AND outside. Driving down the road or just standing in one spot.
I've tried all of the radios (basebands) and about 7 different ROMs and versions.
I've refreshed the data profile, PRL, and even tried the roaming Verizon PRL and Hybrid PRL.
Gone back to stock and tried everything from scratch. Still the same problem.
Dallas/Fort Worth Area
Network: Sprint
Baseband: D720SPRKE1
PRL Version: P:40447
I contacted Sprint and they just told me to update the profile & PRL.....
Any suggestions?
I'm not familiar with the CDMA nexus s, but are you able to change APN's? At one point I'd be able to connect to 3g (I have an I9020A), but every minute or so it would drop, so I fixed up the APN's for my carrier.
iv had a few data issues
forcing PRL and account updates has fixed it a couple of times
i'v bought used phones that iv had
to have sprint force update
im on LC1
[altho i cant tell any significant difference here]
and my prl is 61086
[a business account]
im currently on slim
make sure your mobile network
is set to roam
is not set to home only
Am I the only one with this problem? As I'm typing this I lost data but still had 3 bars. I never drop calls but only data.
Help please. This is driving me nuts.

no
i go thru periods of it acting bizarre
try disabling wifi and reboot
this USUALLY fixes mine till wifi is re-enabled
and i drop the sprint connection a few times
riding around
it then fails to re-acquire the IP address.
look in your status and see if you still have an IP
when your data fails
fwiw
I never use Wi-Fi. Ever.
Happens while using both 3G and 4G.

4G is worthless here...
i dont even bother with the switch
does it do the same thing if you disable 4G?
I almost always have to use 4G (if possible) since 3G speeds are slower than dial-up.
I've tried rebooting and leaving 4G off, and still the same. Even tried going back to Gingerbread.

If going back to GB doesnt help, maybe it is hardware related?

This is happening with BOTH of my NS4G.
Possibility that BOTH have hardware defects?
Do a profile and prl update
Hit the thanks button if i helped

In the original post, I stated that was one of the things I've done.
have you checked to see if you have an IP address
when data fails?
mine shows "unavailable" when it's wonky
and wont re-aquire till i reboot.
i'v seen this on 2 phones
off and on including on oem 2.3.7
fwiw

I have the same problems. From what I understand, its a problem with the hardware. I can confirm that's probably the case, because I've tried many different ROMs (stock, cm, etc...) and they all have the same radio issues (3g/4g and wifi)...
I have an NS4G in the DFW area and haven't seen the issues you're reporting. I'm currently on 4.0.4 with D720SPRLC1 baseband. Maybe I'm just lucky and have a good signal at work and home. It's very rare that I find an area of DFW where I don't get any data signal at all. Not sure what to suggest.
I get random drops too and i hate it. My 3g speeds are fairly good even above 1 mbps. Highest i ever got on 3g was 1.51 mbps
Mine will lose data if I'm in a coverage free area for an extended period of time, when I'm back in range 3g icon will show up just never reconnect. A reboot fixes it
Certain Areas
There are certain areas where I live that data just disappears. Although this is just a network thing I believe. It's weird though when I am driving it's like a 10 second drop and then all is good. Hope you get a solid fix!:victory:
Backup 4g Partition
REMOVED - was a bad idea.
I've actually replaced BOTH of the phones with brand new NS4Gs and they shipped with ICS.
Still the same problem.
This is driving me nuts. I was driving and trying to download Maps for the new phone from the Play Store and it took 6 tries. Kept saying RETRY.
What I've come to believe is happening is:
When 4G connects, 3G disconnects. When 4G drops (which is does frequently), 3G has to reconnect.
***Is there a way to keep 3G "on" in the background while 4G is connected?*** Maybe a way for the radio to transition back and forth?
Most of the time it works fine, but if the signal drops I get no internet.
Even if I have one bar signal, the phone tries to connect to 3G or H, which is impossible, so internet doesn't work. I think that when the signal drops the phone should switch to 2G, right?
In settings I have GSM/WCMDA auto checked.
I tried different radios and RILs, but I haven't found a solution. Thx in advance
I was having this issue last night, someone mentioned T-Mobile is having some tower issues. Which rom is it? Is it happening with just one rom or is it any rom? It happened to me running Cm10 then when I switched back to DKOS I got my signal back. I was trying everything also, new rils, ect. The only thing that helped me was to switch roms. Hope you get your data back soon! Maybe try out some different roms to see if it returns.

I am using Viper S and I am in Albania, Europe, so it's not related to T-Mob.
The strange thing is that it doesn't switch to 2G, no matter how low the signal is, it always tries to connect to H. Does anyone have this problems with Viper?
Edit. By testing with different RILs, Radios I came up with the best configuration for me.
It's the first time I get 7MB down and 2 MB up. The max before was 5.5MB up.
But the problem with 2G network is the same, so I think it has smth to do with the ROM
Edit:I realized that it was my networks problem. So if you are on Vodafone Albania it's normal to lose connection once in a while.
But there's a simple solution to this problem. I found an app which resolves the probem perfectly 3G RECONNECT
About a week ago, I flashed the WiFi firmware update from turges thread. Ever since then I have been getting atrocious internet speeds (like less than 1mpbs down on a 20 down/5 up connection), as well as some hangs in connection. The phone shows that it is connected the whole time, but there are periods of no internet connection. I flashed different ROMs with clean wipes to no avail. All the computers in my house are not suffering from this issue. Is the WiFi firmware update permanent and does not get reset in a clean wipe? And is that even the issue?
