Please help - Cyanogen Nightmare! Can't connect to cell network - Motorola Milestone Android Development

EDIT: RIGHT AFTER POSTING, MY PHONE RANDOMLY STARTED WORKING. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I DID BESIDES POST HERE. MAGIC.
I installed Cyanogen version 7.2.0 just fine using the guide that was found here: http://www.mrmuh.com/2012/01/update-a-motorola-milestone-from-motorola-firmware-to-cyanogenmod-7/
However, the next morning I think I enabled the 2g/3g switch widget - and then my phone entered into a constant and continuous loop of "com.android.phone has unexpectedly closed" - and couldn't connect to cell service.
In a panic, I searched everywhere for fixes. I then tried a few of the fixes which instructed you to download "sqlite editor" and do some edits to the settings file. I did this, along with a couple of other network edits, resetting them to "0" instead of the "1" they were currently set to. No help.
Finally, I went into the Open Recovery system and did a full reset on cache/factory reset/etc. and then rebooted into cyanogen. Now my network won't even connect for a half a second and then crash like before - just straight up NO CONNECTION.
Now I've went through and attempted changing back some of those settings I messed around with in Sqlite - but to no avail.
Anyone with any ideas on how I can get an operating phone again, please let me know. I noticed I still have all my apps from previously, so I don't think I'm really factory resetting the phone. That could be part of the issue, I'm sure....I am very depressed and hoping for a miracle!!

Look into installing minimod recovery and then flashing the correct radio for your location after a full wipe.
If you do a google search you should find minimod. I'm on my phone or I would just link you.

OK Thanks for your reply.
However, randomly, just after I posted this - I looked down and my phone had a full 2G Connection. Went into baseband settings, enabled 850 band 3G, and now I have full 3G connectivity.
I have no clue how this happened. XDA forum is magical?
Thanks again for your reply, but thankfully I don't need the minimod suggestion as of now!!

You're welcome. You might want to go ahead and install minimod though. I made the mistake of not having it installed and flashed a new rom without the ability to select bands and was without a phone all day. It's better safe than sorry.

Good call. I'm just quite happy this is working now, but you are right, don't want that doomsday feeling again. Thanks

im having the same problem here :// i only can get cellNetwork if i restart with airplane mod.. then after i rebooted i go back to normal 3G/2G mode but otherwise i dnt get cell signal// also seems like wifi has some bugs im using HOHO CM7

Do a fresh install of HONO through minimod recovery.

The APN issues thread

Hi everyone,
I figured I would start this thread to give everyone a place to post their APN issues/fixes/work arounds to maybe cut down on the questions being asked in the development forums. I will include any of the fixes/workarounds I have seen so far and try to keep this thread updated with any new ones that come about. I have learned so much on here on XDA just by searching and reading, I hope that this thread can do the same for anyone else looking for answers. Thanks/credit for all these fixes/work arounds goes out to all the OP's (special thanks to Martovitz for inspiring me to write this) Again this is just random things people have tried that have worked for them,this is NOT a step by step, THEY MAY OR MAY NOT WORK FOR YOU, and they are in no particular order, everyones phone is different:
APN Voodoo:
1) Try Holding power button down while holding volume up to reboot phone.
2) Try pulling battery out while the phone is on, let it sit for a minute, then restart.
3) Try toggling airplane mode on wait a minute, then turn it back off.
4) If simple user is selected in your APN menu try selecting T-Mobile. If this fails try deleting simple user APN.
5) Go into settings>wireless>mobile networks. -let it search, pick one, let it 'error' then select the 'select automatically' option -wait a second, press back to the home screen, wait two more seconds APN issues disappear
6) Run fix permissions in ROM Manager
7) Replace Sim card,try new UICC sim card specifically for 3g/4g devices.
8) Try flashing new ROM while in a good T-Mobile area (ie full bars of reception) to register on network
9) Try reinstalling ROM using this process:
a) Wipe cache
b) Wipe Dalvik
c) Flash ROM
d) Flash gapps
e) Fix Permissions
f) Reboot
10)
a)Turn on WiFi and make sure you're connected.
b) Go into the Market, search "APN Backup".
c) Download the program called "APNsBU (ROOT)"
d) Open the program and click on the "Backup APNs" button.
e) After that's done, click on the "Restore APNs" button. It will prompt you to reboot your phone.
f) After the reboot, open the APNsBU program, click on the menu button on your phone and click "View APNs".
g) You should be able to see "Simple" and "T-Mobile US." Turn off your WiFi and you should be good to go!
11) The fix that's been working for me 100% is to just delete the APN type on both the T-Mobile US and Simple and then make sure T-Mobile US is selected
11) Use ROM Manager to "Reboot into Recovery", once recovery boots simply select "reboot system now" and let the phone boot back up. That's it, when the phone boots back up the apn settings will be restored and data will be working like it should.
***Disclaimer: I am in no way responsible for any damage you do to your phone trying these fixes/work arounds***
pretty awesome thread, thanks for sharing your experiences
Would someone be willing to type up or link to the reason why the APN problems manifest? I really appreciate the list of (supposed) fixes, but I'd also like to know why the problems exist in the first place.
I honestly don't think anyone really knows, but I'm willing to bet with the release of official gingerbread update these problems will disappear
Maybe if everyone starts posting the problems their having and where, when, why, and how they started we could narrow it down

APN Issues only occur with not stock roms for me.
Apn issues:
They basically give u no data and when u go to apn settings there are no presets. This usually doesn't happen on first boot on cm. But when u reboot everything dissapears. Some fixes use to work for me but now data works when it wants to

Exactly my problem or when I am on wifi and turn it off I don't get data back either
See and the really weird thing is you get people like me that have never had any apn problems .... but I have only flashed Cm7 rom starting with nb#32. I haven't used any other roms.... maybe that's a possible reason why i have no apn issues.

Have u tried apn'sBU? It fixes every time for me. Usually happens first reboot after new flash (not the reboot out of cwr).
Yah, it's a crazy issue. Cm7 is the only rom I've flashed, I did a few full wipes around nightlies 38+ figuring it would have to help. Made no real difference.
Good luck.

My data/apn fix...
Okay, I guess this isn't technically a "FIX", but it WILL get your data working again until the next time the apn settings decide to mysteriously disappear.
Use ROM Manager to "Reboot into Recovery", once recovery boots simply select "reboot system now" and let the phone boot back up. That's it, when the phone boots back up the apn settings will be restored and data will be working like it should.
Wish I had an actual fix but this is MUCH better than nothing, and in my opinion easier than taking my case off and pulling the battery every time.

[Q] CM7 issues

I installed CM7 on my infuse yesterday and having an issue. I have read alot of forums but haven't found an answer. I am having connection issues while using the phone. I have flashed different modems still doesn't change anything. When I am using the market I get connection timed out. It switches between H, 3g, and E all the time. Is there anything else I can do to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
Read thru the cm7 thread in dev section is a good place to start ready to find your answer. Me personally have no data issues while on cm7
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA App
Look for the APN fix it is in many places.
My data dies when I first access the market. After I leave the market and it will come back and I have no trouble after that.
As for it switching between 4,H,3,E CM7 is giving you real connection info when other ROMS do not.

1) Do you require bluetooth? If yes, don't use CM7. 2) Can you read instructions? If so, there's an easy fix for the APN thing and you'll be all set. CM7 is fantastic, I've used it for a long time.
In the instructions he asks to boot into recovery and flash the rom. now when i reboot into 3e recovery theres no option to install from zip... all there is are these options: reinstall packages, delete user data, delete cache data, format internal sd card...
---------- Post added at 06:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:12 AM ----------
ok... figured it out... had to select reinstall packages
I like cm7 on every phone I have had, my phone runs 100% better, remember step where u flash again and to download Google apps zip to get market to get all ur apps and I'd recommend getting titanium back pro. I like backing up all my apps. Faster to load ur stuff back on phone.

thanks for the tip... i was a bit confused where the market place had gone
apps are downloading now... i backed up me apps and data with titanium... now when i restore, my apps and data will get overwritten i assume....

Yes. You can root using SuperOneClick.
Yes it some apps don't always restore well via backup though. Like adobe I usually restore flash without data. Free version of titanium back will piss you off it stops on every app it restores.

start over as in reinstall gapps or reflash rom? and the steps for reflashing are the same as before or something different has to be done? and this time i should avoid restoring titanium backup??
I would wipe, reflash, I only restore user apps via titanium backup. Might download Google apps again. You only have to flash once if ur on cm7, just wipe flash cm7 and then flash Google apps. Then reboot.

ok...by wipe you mean format /system from recovery and reflash? also i have this weird thing where wifi icon no longer shows up if the phone is screenlocked for some time. when you unlock the wifi comes on. is the a CM thing or some setting i need to tweak for always ON wifi... thanks for all the help!
Also should I go to th 12/13dec build or the 20 nov build thats the latest on the links???
Wipe in where recovery and flash is. I would use newest build 12/13. I just haven't had time to update yet. Wifi, not sure where setting is since I don't use wifi with screen off but in past many phones would shut off wifi when screen goes off.

I can`t enable internet in MIUI

After installing MIUI I can`t enable data transfer (2g/3g internet). Data transfer is turning on, but there is no 2g/3g logo and internet. This happens after installing all MIUI stock and custom roms. APN settings is correct, before it was ok. I`m installing via Clockwork recovery v5. Device is G2x (P999)
What should I do? How to enable it?
I believe for the g2x you should see an H next to the bars, that is if you are in a good service area.
Otherwise I think it also shows G, and E.
If it doesn't have anything at all, then I'm not sure.
Does the internet work when you go inti the browser?

Hey go to SETTINGS->MOBILE NETWORKS->ACCESS POINT NAMES-> in here select option button in your android phone, in the menu select NEW APN, you will get the APN settings as seen in this. In the link ACCESS NUMBER = SERVER in mobile.
As I am not allowed to post link for first ten TIMES! will guide you through

[Q] cm9 and aokp issue

anyone having problems with thier data after flashing these 2 ics roms
Giving more detail other than anybody having data issues will get people to answer.

im working on that right now
I had problems with this previously - data was working right after I flashed CM9, then it stopped. IMEI was fine, and the phone recognized Tmo as the provider - just no data.
Here's what I did to get data working again - go to Settings > Wireless & Networks > More > Mobile networks > Access point names. Hit the menu button and select Reset to default. See if that helps you out.

You should not have to do that. Plus those are two different animals. Your service data is just internet. Data that you mount in recovery is all the stuff on your phone in a folder labeled data.

How to get out of ROAMING? (after flashing 10.1 official)

So...I went ahead and flashed the Dec 24th official 10.1 release with data working. I flashed with TWRP and it went smoothly. I couldn't activate the phone because it was stuck in roaming. I tried what ever I could do but could not get out of it. So I resorted back to full stock from verizon locking and un-rooting. Did that and I also flashed a stock radio. Still cannot get out of roaming mode.
Any suggestions? Kind of in desperate need of data to get a working phone!
Thanks in advance. I'm sure this problem has come up among many of you.

I cannot access that menu if I need to go there. I need to get past the activation screen. Also I am not so sure on performing the four corners trick in order to get past that screen.

Gotcha. Did it and it seems to be fine now. Many thanks! Now I am hesitating going back to 10.1. I think i'll just stick to CM10 for now. until such time everything gets fixed.

So...I went ahead and flashed the Dec 24th official 10.1 release with data working. I flashed with TWRP and it went smoothly. I couldn't activate the phone because it was stuck in roaming. I tried what ever I could do but could not get out of it. So I resorted back to full stock from verizon locking and un-rooting. Did that and I also flashed a stock radio. Still cannot get out of roaming mode.
Any suggestions? Kind of in desperate need of data to get a working phone!
Thanks in advance. I'm sure this problem has come up among many of you.

i just posted a fix topic for this but here this is how i got mine to work after flashing CM10.1 the 12/24
If you remove ur sim card and boot up and connect via wifi, u can then register and set up the phone. then shut down put sim card back in and boot up. go to system settings -> More... under wireless and networks -> mobile networks -> CDMA subscription and choose RUIM/SIM (NOT NV)

i couldnt tell u sadly... where i am now i dont get 4g. 3g works fine. only had it flashed for 2 hours and been messing around with it. a couple of phone calls and text messages and doesnt seem like its dropping signal at all. but the solution i posted works just fine. if u dont want to try it just wait for the next release...

I didnt see a responce from here but ill do my best, flash back to the stock ROM using ODIN and you should be put back into the operating system still in roaming mode then you dial *2767*3855# as soon as you hit the # your phone will download a file and re-provision itself which will fix the roaming error.
