Can anyone else (that lives/works in a lte aria) and is running a ics rom.
Test something. Remove the att browser SecBrowser_ATT.apk.
install the aosp browser Browser.apk. set the correct permissions and reboot.
I saw in MHX'S thread that He was having issues connecting to lte when removing the att browser and replacing it with the aosp browser.
Thanks
if no one else does I will test tonight as im not in an LTE area this moment. maybe try leaving in the app but just freezing it?
Personally i have done this switch but don't remember if i've seen LTE since then.
LTE still works with AOSP browser, just tried it.

Renamed it to .bak, copied in Browser.apk, rebooted.
lte will still work, since its already been configured. you need the stock browser on first boot though, no?

You're correct. Just did a wipe data/factory restart and when the phone came up only data connection was named 'Cingular 410' configured to the wap.cingular apn-- so 4G only.
Added the pta apn and LTE came back up.
Didn't have PreloadInstaller.apk, SecBrowser_ATT.apk, SecBrowserTests.apk or any of the device managment apks loaded during the wipe and reboot.
Did some more testing on this and found that we don't actually need the stock browser on first boot to get the pta APN configured for LTE.
While the SecBrowser has some csc login coded into it, it's actually CSC.apk that configures the apn setting on first boot by reading the configuration from /system/csc/customer.xml and /system/csc/others.xml
from others.xml:
Code:
<DefaultApn>
<ProfileName>AT&T PTA</ProfileName>
</DefaultApn>
<DefaultApnString>AT&T PTA,pta,,,,,,,,,310,410,0,default</DefaultApnString>
Verified this by building a stock rom image of the ics leak, removing SecBrowser_ATT.apk and replacing it with the AOSP Browser.apk, doing a factory reset and booting into the rom.
On the first boot, initially apn is 'Cingular 410', but then changes to 'AT&T pta' a minute or two after booting.
Also verified that I could change the APN setting in the csc configuration files and those new settings would take on boot. (BTW, can also set browser bookmarks, phone boot contacts, default keyboard in the csc files.)
I also noticed that in my rom if i did not have att browser in and aosp browser removed the android.process.phone would fc on first reboot. so for the time being I will just leave att browser in.

I noticed the phone FC when I swapped browsers in an existing rom, but didn't have that problem when flashing a fresh rom with only the AOSP Browser installed.
mine always does that fc when I boot up even when the rom is fresh off a flash.
LTE did work for me with the att out and ASOP in. confirmed today.

Hi I'm new here so it will only let me post in this area for now instead of the actual rom post...
I installed the rom last night and everything looked great!
I'm on wi-fi at home so I didn't notice any data connection problems. As soon as I left the realm of wi-fi I ran into a data connection problem while the browser sill worked as we as sms and phone calls the 4g and signal strength icons in the status bar never turned blue and any app I had that relied on data signal came back with a data connection error i.e. my accuweather and wellsfargo apps. I'm on the original ics leak from July from here.
Any help...
Thanks
PS I did search the original thread for related issues didn't find any.

i guess your "network type" is in Automatic
turn that to either 3G or 2G you'll get your data connection back ..... i tried & got it.
Look over your APN settings.
Try to just reboot your phone. Worked for me. Sometimes when you boot into a custom ROM its necessary to perform a reboot after the cache finishes building.

I tried rebooting a couple of times still had the same problem. Definitely not an apn issue as data still works for sms and chrome. As far as I know there is no toggle on the atrix 2 for 2/3g to 4g this may have changed in ics but there wasn't one on gb. Even the custom stuff I had wouldn't do it. I will double check on that.
This sucks because i really like the rom otherwise no fuss no muss just the stuff I want.
Make sure background data is on, and that you're Google account is signed in. I had problems with my account when I first upgraded to ICS. I resigned in and it worked fine.

Background data has been on as well as my google account. Everything works fine on ics it was just this particular rom.
The apps I was getting errors in are wells fargo and actuweather. Both got network errors and my 4g and signal strength never changed from gray to blue indicating full connection.

Rom was installed on a clean ics install (the July release from here recomended as the only one to use by the devs)
Guess I'll try it again to see if I can get it to work...
Ok reinstalled everything seems to be working fine. Error was human, mine... accidently had clicked on something and didn't realize it.
I even have the wifi hot spot working too. So I'm pretty stoked.
I swear I'm not a newb I'm on many other android forums just hadn't bothered messing with my phone for about eight months.
Thanks for all your replies!
Stock Browser
Gentlemen:
I like the Shogun ROM, but want Chrome browser gone. I uninstall, move the stock ICS Browser from SCV7 to my sd card to install, and it will not install. Just says App not Installed, nothing more specific. A poster in the development section addresses this by suggesting the APK be moved into system/apps folder, then a restart prior to installing. I have tried this as well to no avail. Not sure how many posts I lack to be able to post in the development section, but for now this is as close as I can get. I hope that this is an appropriate place for such a post.

Good question Jerry as I too would like the stock browser. It actually seems faster than chrome to me.
I'll upload the titanium backup of the browser tomorrow..you can restore it and see if that works

Another question...
I'm having issues with the apex launcher not opening the proper apps etc. Is there anyway to go back to the stock ics launcher also?
OK I've got solutions for both of my issues.
Before you download the files read carfully:
Download files to your PC then copy to your SD card.
Use ES File Manager (free in the app store) to copy or one of the files (whichever you prefer) to the System/App folder. You must go to settings in ES and make sure you have view system files etc. check so you can see the actual folder. ES defaults to opening up the SD card just click the up arrow and it will take you to the system folder. You may have to restart ES after changing the permissions in order for you to see the system folder.
Do Not try to install the apk's it doesn't work that way.
Files:
Browser.apk - 1.79 MB
MotoAtLauncher.apk - 11.31 KB
If this helps please thank me!

extract the archive and put the files in sdcard\titaniumbackup folder..then go to titanium backup and restore..better to restore the app only rather than app+data

glad to know you solved related problems
Hey folks! After years of using xda as a resource tinkering with my OG Droid back in the day, I've finally joined the community.
As it turns out, I flashed the latest release of Synergy on my Verizon GS3, and I love it. However, since doing that I cannot log into Google Talk. It acts as if it's logging in and then my name remains grey, my chat contacts don't appear, and I'm stuck with nothing
When I flashed Synergy I wiped cache, dalvik cache, it was a clean install. The app appears to be working in every way except for logging in, it doesn't even give the error that it cannot connect with the server. Also, I've tried wiping the data from the app, nothing. I unregistered my google account from the phone then added it back, and nothing changed.
Any ideas?
Attached a screenshot. It just sits on that screen.
Usually happens when you flash a modded version of Talk. Once you delete parts of it it won't flash. Reflash the rom with no mods then install any Talk as a data/app by clicking on it. Whatever app is in data/app will override the one in system app.

This led me to the solution. Thanks! Turns out my titanium backup messed with the gapps bundled with the rom. Had to start over fresh, so here I am with a seemingly brand new device.
Sorry, but I've been searching everywhere to try and fix this but ive hit a wall. I have an AT&T MB865 and could not seem to change the APN settings or add any new APNs. The AT&T stock loaded APNs have been locked and uneditable. There was and still is NO OPTION to add a new APN.
I had trouble rooting this phone but just managed yesterday after doing a factory reset and used the one click root. I've installed root explorer, titanium back up, apn backup and restor, busy box along with super user and can get to the directories well enough.
i tried using APN back up & restore, but couldn't seem to add an APN or delete and APN even after using super user to give it system application status. I still get the error message stating that Android 4.0+ does not allow 3rd party applications to access APN settings.
In any case, i thought i would try to manually delete the existing APNs and managed to get into data > data> com.android.providers.telephony > databases and deleted all of the files in there per another thread. The APNs disappeared but there is STILL NO OPTION to add a new APN.
I am trying to load Straight Talk APNs in order to get data access. I can make calls, send regular texts, but cannot use data or send MMS.
Any help in getting proper APNs added and data working would be greatly appreciated.

I flashed my atrix 2 with Pacman JB 4.3 (official, august 2013 RC1). But I'm getting an error "AOSP unfortunately stopped working" for every few seconds. I tried removing the cache for AOSP under Settings->App. Still no use. I tried flashing the rom again, still the error persists.
And the settings menu is very small ( the list will be on the left and when i click an option, the relevant settings appears on the right ) ( Its more like two frames in one page ). How to change this too ?
gapps installed : gapps-jb-20130813
rom : pac_edison-milestone.1.RC1
Thanks..
Sounds like wrong gapps. But is correct tho. Try again. From start. Format system in bmm. And different gapps. To disable dual pane in setting, open hybrid engine and select 1.6 layout (if I'm not mistaken).
Edit:
You flashed 4.2 jb of pacman. That was why you got such error. Use 4.2 gapps.
Thank you so much. Works Great.. One more query, My atrix 2 is Indian Version. And when I flash with latest JB 4.3 based pacman nightly version, I'm not able to add APN (gprs) settings. When i click add and save the settings, its not getting saved. Its just blank.
I tried re flashing, erasing the cache, etc.
Even when i contacted the customer service ( carrier ), to send me the APN configuration SMS. My phone couldnt receive it. But as soon as i put my sim in another phone, all the config sms got received.
Thanks..
Idk. Mine was working great. Perhap you wanna give APN backup & restore a shot. Available on playstore. Be sure to read instructions there. It works for me major time.
Hi, I installed the Custom ROM LineageOS on my Samsung S5 phone. I have also added the GAPPS. The Wifi works but cannot get the data to work. I created a new APN and entered the settings carefully but didn’t work. I have tried restarting, removing the battery, removing and re-installing the simm card, deleting the cache from TWRP recovery, but nothing works.
There is a preferred network type and its set to LDE/WCDMA by default so not sure if this needs changing. Someone in a video also suggested changing Bearer inside the APN to include LTE and keep unspecified ticked too. But no luck.
I don’t want to have to go back to the Stock ROM as its slow and sluggish and full of bloatware. The phone runs like lightning using the custom ROM.
There was another thread that suggested downloading the GiffGaff App and let the App download and configure the APN settings automatically. I downloaded the app but can’t see any option for this.
Any ideas?
I had this problem before on other ROMs, usually removing and putting the SIM back in worked for me
edit: sorry- I didn't read the part where you said you removed and put back the SIM
