Damn this thing has been going on for like 3 days... Edge works fine, it's the 4G that's dropping.

chris have you tried just a stock rom? Maybe there is something conflicting with your phone.

No worries man. Thanks for the info.
@eollie
I tried GR and used it for some hours and same thing. My sister is stock Froyo and is having issues too but my gf and dad live in different region and they are not having problems so I guess it is a problem with the carrier and my area.

Dayton, OH 4G LTE up and running!!

I was excited to see the 4G icon, so I called Verizon to confirm that it is permanent and not just a test. So far, been getting amazing speeds. 7 mbps down, 2 mbps up.

mine popped up at 6 i went in the gym with gym and when i started working out i had 4g. ran speedtest and got 19m that could be dangerous
I was waiting for it to kick in today. But Verizon surprised me with the turn on a day early. Woot. Loving the speed boost for sure.
Im glad my fellow Ohians are catching up to the west of me
Well it is great to hear that 4g is finally avail to different company besides tmobile in the miami valley i hope you guys enjoy but hey once you blow up your contract with data overages and need an out come c me for cricket
What areas of Dayton at you getting the hookup? My parents live in Germantown so I highly doubt I'll get anything when visiting but I'm curious to know if it's just the city limits or surrounding areas as well. I live in Columbus but can get 4G at work in Dublin/Hilliard too.

I was in Troy/Piqua yesterday. Sorry no yummy 4G lovin' up that far. Ironically, the wife and I both had to restart our phones when we came back to Dayton before they would resume 4G service. Hopefully the next bug fix will resolve that.
I'm in the Cincinnati Hamilton area, had 4g since day 1. Glad to see Dayton join [email protected] dexter, I have an extra t- bolt laying around I been wanting to try to flash to cricket. If you dont mind getting ahold of me for a how to that would be great, if not that's cool to.

If you have issues like that on everyone's phone in the same area, first thing to always do is call att.

This is a horrible question to ask. If there are 3 different phones on the acct in the same area having the same problem do you really think its miui thats causing it? I thought people have more common sense then that. Seriously dude. Think about it.

WIND or T-Mobile?

I'm curious to see how many users here are on WIND (Canada) and how many are on T-Mobile (USA). Post if you're on a different provider as well.
One thing that has bothered me about CM7 is the inclusion of Kineto, the Wi-fi calling app. It's a proprietary T-Mobile app (doesn't work with WIND), it seems strange to be included in a "AOSP-like" ROM, so I'm just curious to see what the ratio is actually like
T-Mobile.
Mobilicity here I wonder how many of other mobilicity people use this phone. I don't mind having to remove Kineto every time I flash a new rom. Most the developers are with t-mobile anyways , so its just a little compromise to use their awesome roms. I hope they keep up their great work!

I believe miui has so much more to offer to stock android experience, its just so much "easier" Its like taking android and iOS and forming one super o/s

Southern California Outages

Is anyone here in southern california experiencing outages within the past week or so? Sometimes at night, I lose all signal completely for hours on end, sometimes showing "No Service" in the status bar.
When the T-Mobile shows up, the signal will have an H or an E but will have no ability to connect to anything.
And yes, the T-Mobile APN is selected, Data is turned ON, my IMEI number is active, I just wanted to know if others were having this issue. When someone else with T-Mobile came over, they have the same problems.

You can try using the TMo Galaxy Note radio. It works very well for me. Here's the link:

You made a huge mistake switching to tmobile!!
There is nothing called "combo" when it comes to using Skyrocket with t mobile (and in my opinion it makes things worse as you might have to troubleshoot both sides radio and rom problems) ... It is just the radio that can be fine or not depending on the area , and in some areas now t mobile switched their data freq to 1900Mhz so even stock UCLF6,UCLI3 or UCLL3 can work , including 4G

not my mistake. husband threw a fit about att and now we are all going to switch to something else. I opted tmo for myself, granted I should've bought a tmo phone and save me some headache.

Ah I see. Good luck with tmo, my gf has had them for a while. Some areas get decent service but it sucks when traveling. It's always way slower than att everywhere we are.

Even if it's not for you , but I must say I've been with the BYOD att SIM from ST now for a year and never had a problem, calls and data are exactly like when I was on att .... Tried tmobile prepaid before and it sucks endlessly...I can't comment on what your neighbors think since I can know what's their background , at least the technical aspects.
