Borked Data/14 toggle <solved. delete plz> - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

SOLVED!!!

did I check access point names entries, and make sure sure that the correct carrier one was present. Did I also make make sure that the data packets under mobile networks was checked? When u first install toggle, sometimes the data toggle is on but data is off

Don't know how to check access points etc. Packet Data is indeed on. the *#2263*# returns "Unable to process request".

settings > mobile networks > access point names
make sure u have the right one entered. eg. ltemobile.apn would be rogers, etc

I have siriusapplications.disabled.ltemobile.apn

well look at that. I edited the APN to just read ltemobile.apn, and voila... My data is back.
Any idea what would have caused the APN to edit? Virus? Yes, I download apps from the net. Mostly for trial, if they're good I buy them... sometimes.
EDIT
It was power control plus that edited the APN. Downloaded it from Mobilism, tried the widget, and uninstalled. Wound up going woth the GO Switch widget instead..
Just a heads up. Also, thx icenight! If you're ever around Barrie, I'll buy you a beer~

ur welcome. don't speak idly now, I live in Brampton but do come up to Barrie every once in awhile

I was so close to flashing a new ROM to see if that would fix it, a beer is more than worth the headache you saved me!

Can not delete GPRS/3G connections

Because I have to travel abroad and do not want to user roaming for data I installed the Modaco-nodata program. When I run it, it finds 2 connections for GPRS/G3 installed. When checking in the settings-tab for connections, I had only one. Then I deleted the connection from the settings-tab.
According the connection-setting in the WM6 settings-menu, I have no installed connections. Also when I want to check email, there is an error-message that I cannot get my mail because there is no connection available.
So far, so good.... but....
There are still 2 connections available, because the HTC-Home weather can still connect to GPRS/G3 and also QuickGPS will also make a connection via GPRS/G3. I see the popup that a connection is made with the connection-names programmed before, but they are not in the settings anymore. Also Modaco-nodata sees them, and Spb GPRS monitor too.
It seems that some programs use a different setting to make a connection than others.
Is there a registry-setting where the connections are stored and how can I delete the connections there ???
settings->connections->connections-Advanced-select network
and choose both non isp in the dropdownboxs and it cant use phone network....

OK, thanks for that. That solved one problem, there were also GPRS-WAP and GPRS-MMS settings there ! I block both now too and no unwanted connections anymore after using modaco-nodata.
But I have still have 2 "old" connections which I can see in some programs, but they do not show up in the connections mentioned above. However if I try to make a new connection with the same name, there is an error message saying that there is a connection with the same name already.... Not a very big problem because I know that I can not use them, but I like to remove both. Are those stored in registry somewhere ?

Hi guys,
I've been looking around quite some time because I had the same problem.
Here is the registry key where you can find the connection list:
HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A37-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections
After removing the "old" connections that were appearing in some programs, it's now fine.

To completely remove the connections you also have to delete these connections under
HKCU\Comm\RasBook
Just delete the complete key named like the connection you want to delete.
Then softreset and their gone.

Both "dve1313" and "wilriker" thanks !
That worked.
However HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A37-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections was empty here, but I had another entry named:
HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections which contains my connections and removed the obsolete ones there worked fine.
my phone was working perfectly on the internet using 3g, o had configured all the settings (vodafone, access point pp.vodafone.co.uk and user and password WAP, until i tried to set up mms, i installed a few cabs, deleted them now, put the connections back to EXACTLY how they were, tried the networks auto configure again and just says somethign like disconnected or lots of "g.00"''" all in some random order, sometimes it says if changing settings fails to fix reset according to manufacturers instructions, although i do not want to do a hard reset as i will lose too much!! anyone got anyyy ideas what i have done wrong?
and
please can someone tell me how to get to
"HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A37-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections was empty here, but I had another entry named:
HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections"
as i have a couple ofblank connections, ideally i would like to reset just the connection side of the device leaving the rest...but can't!!
thanks in advance!!

[Q] Lost data signal randomly, what can I do? (solved)

I was walking around school today, listening to slacker radio. Out of no where, the music stopped. I looked at my phone, and it said there was no signal. I didn't think much of it. I figured there was some sort of outage. When I got home and put my SIM in my old phone, I found it did indeed have a data signal. So I put my SIM back into my galaxy and again, no data. I can still make calls and send mms, but I can't connect to the internet, my email, the store etc. I have tried flashing between the stock ICS rom and CM9. I don't know what else to do. I was going to try flashing a different kernel, but would that even make a difference? Can someone help me?
Also, I did check the settings to make sure data was turned on and all that jazz.
same hir a couple week ago .i have my data connection.. and evry day i always flaahing and testing a new rom. and my data betwork.is still working.. but 1 week aho i lost my data connection.. i also try to flash stock rom.. and re activate my data network but still not working

Well, I tried re-flashing the kernel, with no results. My next step is gonna be flashing a new modem unless someone else has a better idea.

Try fixing permissions. Also are you sure TMOB didn't cut your data for some reason?

I'm not on TMOB. I had to unlock my phone so I could get it on a local carrier. It worked fine for a day, then just quit.
Just tried fixing permissions; does not help.

Fixing permissions never hurts anything. It's good to at least once a week anyway. The next thing I would try is checking your APN to make sure it matches what your carriers settings are. Flashing another modem wouldn't hurt anything either but if the one you had was working fine I'd look at the APN setting first.

Stands for Access point name:
All Hail Wiki
You can find it under settings>wireless networks more>mobile networks>Access Point Names. You'll have to do a google search for your carriers correct APN settings. Just make sure they match if not hit left soft key. New APN and enter the correct info. Then left soft key again to save it. Then select it and reboot.

You sir are a genius. Thank you a ton. I called my carrier, and got the settings. My phone works great. Now to try new roms.

Easy way to recover/restore APN settings?

I'm on eagles blood 4.0.4. One of the issues with ICS running on this device is that my APN settings are getting deleted about twice a week. So i have to go into my settings and manually add my settings into a new APN and save it in order to get my data back and working. I've tried to use the option of "restore default APN" but it doesn't work, I just get a pop message saying "restoring default APN settings" and it never goes away and nothing gets restored. Besides manually putting in the information into my APN settings, is there an easier way to get them back when the restore option is not working?

There is an app for that .
Also those that rename apn to save on data traffic can rewrite/restore properly.

Lol yeah I saw that Mansa, there are a few apps that can save and supposedly restore APN settings. I'll give those a shot for sure.
Freak, I actually saw that thread a few days ago and wasn't sure if that would be the solution to my problem. I figured that "data drops" were just a loss in signal/connection strength over the data network, not a complete deletion of the T-Mobile US APN settings. However, after reading through the thread again it makes sense how the simple mobile APN's might be interfering with my T-Mobile US settings. I'll flash that asap and see if it helps the issue, along with saving my current settings with an APN-saving/restoring application.
As always, appreciate the responses!

Force Google to forget Wifi networks?

Hello everyone,
My phone (HTC One M7 Verizon) refuses to forget wifi networks. I have a 2.4 network at my apartment that I don't like to use because there is so much interference from other apartments. I have a 5Ghz network that I want my phone to connect to, which it does about half the time. The other half it goes to the 2.4GHz network.
I have tried to go to the wifi settings and forgetting the network, but after toggling wifi it comes back. I believe this is because Google remembers wifi passwords so they can be restored if you reset your device. Is there any way I can remove these stored passwords?
I have also tried editing the wpa_supplicant file and after a wifi toggle the network is restored.
Thanks in advance!
The setting for Google saving your wifi passwords is in "Backup and reset", but this also includes your app data and contacts, so you might not want to toggle it off.
Forgetting the network should work. I've done it on my phones, and it always works, even if I have the backup setting toggled on.
The obvious solution is to simply rename your network.

I did think to rename my network, but would rather avoid that only because I really shouldn't have to rename my network because my phone refuses to forget a network.
I believe this is because of Google because I have recently wiped my phone and installed a new ROM so I doubt any saved network info would have survived that.

It's still a solution though, and a simple one. There's no gain to be had in being stubborn about it.

When you first set up your phone newly installed ROM, it gives you the option to restore data and accounts and passwords. If you allow it, it doesn't matter what device or ROM or whatever it came from, the saved info will be restored. I don't know why toggling wifi un-forgets the network though. That's just weird.

I don't mean to sound stubborn, I just want to avoid reconnecting all my devices that use that network if I can. If that's the only solution that is fine, but I would like to see if I can stop this from happening before doing that.
I don't remember seeing an option but I can not include passwords when I the restore during the install?

Rename network.....riiggght. Although correct that will work that's a temporary solution .
I can't keep renaming my home and work networks. If google includes the option to forget a network and it doesn't...that's a bug plain and simple.
Of course its great to have google restore my networks...love it. But if I choose to forget a network....read...feature of the os......it should sync that setting.
Heck...we are not even talking about a restore...if I forget one of my 3 home networks right now....by tomorrow night my phone will have it saved again and I have to forget it again. Need a good ole days option to state what takes precedence....cloud or device or something.

Help with new wifi networks

I have recently updated my android HTC phone, and since then, each time I try to logon to a new wifi network I can't, and it tells me: "can't save new wi-fi networks, maximum number of saved wi-fi networks reached" ...
Can anyone tell me how to handle this?

Remove saved networks and try again.
Thanks for your response, but I need those saved networks and I prefer not to remove them (obviously they are over 200 saved networks)

I think 200 is the maximum limit
Go to /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf file there u can see your saved list with password(phone needs to be rooted I think) and remove any duplicate or unneeded ones or just make a copy of the file and delete some or all from the list and add Wi-Fi networks as u go and if u don't know the password just look up the copied file
U can copy this file with adb pull too(without root I think?)
Or try this app it has a option to backup and restore Wi-Fi list https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.roamingsoft.manager
Thanks a lot for your help... but I was wondering if there is anyway where I could keep those saved networks on the phone just it used to be before the security update (they are was more than 200, and it was fine with the phone)... or even a way to uninstal the latest update, if this will get it back the way it was

No, there is a limit, remove some networks. There's no way you're using over 200 networks that you "need". No one needs that many networks, I'm sure you can spare removing a few. Just remove some of them instead of trying to bypass the limitation, you would more than likely just cause issues trying to modify the limit.

You know, I would have believed you and followed the advice hadn't it been working very well with me before I do the security update... Yes.. I had way more than 200 wifi networks, and they were all stored at the same time on the system, until the latest update... So, thank you for the suggestion, but no.. you are not correct... there is a way.... and that's what I'm trying to figure out...
