Hello everyone. Been on here a while haven't really posted much. Have a shift 4G used to have new update prior to being able to root that so I downverted fully rooted and ran Cryo 7 for a while. Switched to MikShifted-Gv2.1. I love it! It's great. A buddy of mine was looking at my phone the other day and noticed that my phone wasn't using 3G because it wasn't saying 3G when I was at work (state buildings don't let you use their wifi It just has the 1X in the status bar... Just out of curiosity is he right? Am I really just running 2G? Where the heck did my 3G go if it is true?? Am I missing something? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
1x would be 2g, ev or 3g would be the 3g. Don't know why it would turn off, usually its data or no data. Check your setting to make sure its not disabled. Also check apps like tasker or juice defender if installed or anything similar, They can also control 2g/3g.

There probably isn't anything wrong. All phones switch in and out of signal types, 1x , 3G , etc. MikShifted G, and Supreme Sense are enabled to show you all the different types of signals so that's what your seeing. Most phones do not actually show you when you switch out of 3G. They want you to think your always on 3G at the very least.

What he said. Before I rooted I never saw anything lower than 3g. Since running custom ROMs I now know what I'm actually getting for a connection. Not sure why carriers decide not to give us an accurate portrayal. Oh well.

Thank you guys for the quick responses. So even though my phone ALWAYS says 1X unless I'm in either a 4G area with 4G turned on at home or on WiFi at home I won't exactly know if I'm in 3G or not? My wife has an Optimus S and she is in 3G at our house sitting right next to me. When we go out he phone is so much faster than mine looking online at things cause it says she's in 3G. I was looking through my phone at the Mik Tweeks and there is a place for me to change connection settings (EVDO etc.) Is this the place I need to see if there is a change? I just find it weird that no matter when I look it's always in 1X...

I checked and don't see anything about turning 3G on or off. And I don't have a task or juice defender or anything of that kind (learned my lesson) and nothing. I'm getting kinda frustrated. Would getting a new rom fix problem. I just want to make sure I'm getting my monies worth. We don't have 4G at my house yet but it's up the street by a Jack n' the box so I wanna at least be able to get my 3G when I want....

Yes, I've updated everything that I'm able to update on the phone (minus the software update. I think cause I'm rooted) And no dice. I've been fiddling around with it and was looking and it says 1XRTT... What does that mean?
So you don't 3G reception anywhere? Did you Update the Radios?

That's what I'm not sure about. I don't know if I get 3G or not. my status bar when not in either WiFi mode or 4G mode doesn't say 3G or EVDO or anything other than 1X. When I'm in 4G it says 4G when I'm in WiFi I see the WiFi symbol. When not in either of the two it says 1X... And yes, I've updated my radios. I check every 2 or so weeks to see if there is an update. Updated the radio yesterday.
If you've checked in several areas and never get 3G. What I would do is re-wipe, and re-flash. If it still doesn't work correctly try flashing a different Rom to see if it works correctly.
Okay so I tried to update the PRL and wiped my phone and tried to use the ROM again, still to no avail. I'm going to try newSense ROM hoping that it will help. I have a question though:
I cleared my cache and Dalvik cache. Is there something else I'm missing? I Thought I wiped my phone back to stock (assuming that meant getting rid of the ROM), but the ROM remained on my phone. Did I miss a step or was to supposed to happen?

Before you Flash a Rom, it's best IMO to do a FULL Wipe. There is a guide linked in my Sig. Read and follow the guide, and you should be all good. Also, if you did not do a FULL Wipe before Flashing MikShifted G that could be what's causing your issues. What do you mean by taking it back to stock BTW? Like Factory Stock? Or something else?

I'm curious as to if I can go back to the stock rom and remain rooted then try it all over again (as far as flashing ROM again.)
Then main thing I'm trying to fix is my 3G. I would love to have it again or at least know when I am. My wife's phone is far less superior than the Shift but when we are out and about her 3G works and kicks the pants off of my 1X any time of the day.
So... wiped EVERYTHING x3 as instructed, flashed new ROM (newSENSE) flashed just fine. Updated radio to the 1.8XXX, that worked just fine as well... STILL don't have a 3G signal, still says 1X.... Ahhh I'm getting frustrated!!! What do you guys think?

At this point I would RUU back to 2.2. Start the whole Rooting process over. RUU'ing should correct most any issue you may be having. It doesn't solve everything, but it will give you a better idea of what's going on. So RUU back to 2.2. Check the signal. Then Re-root, and check the signal. If all is still good flash a Rom, and check the signal.

Okay, I'm ready to give in and restore back to 2.2 I can't find a valid link. I had the zip file once, but no longer do. Can anyone help?
So I used the RUU and went back to stock, re rooted my phone (3 times in one night) and everytime I would root it, the 3G sign would remain, but as soon as I flashed ANY ROM on it it always went back to the 1X. Each time I rooted I used a different ROM so I give up. I'm just going to have to leave it as it is. I don't know what else to do
Thanks for all everyone's help trying to trouble shoot this. If anyone has had this problem and found a way to fix it, please let me know. Thanks XDA
Did you try a Stock Rooted Rom? Like the latest Rom, just Rooted. I believe Sparksco has one.

Hi, I'm not sure if this is the right place to post. If not I apologize.
I flash alot of roms pretty frequently... seems like almost daily.
I have a solid Nandroid backup of a plain Donut rom (dwangs 1.11). This nandroid backup has never failed me.
Today after flashing Evils nano sense v1 I did a nandroid restore.
Now my phone won't get signal. I checked my APN's and they're fine. but the phone just wont connect to a network. After clicking "tmobile" in network operators I get a "cannot to connect to this network"
Is my SIM card dead? anyone else having this problem?

Good to know i was about to wipe and flash another rom now.Been last 30 min. without signal in here.Now i know is not something i did.
Wow! I just did the EXACT same thing and freaked out thinking I blew out my SIM by how many times I flash. LOL
I performed a Nandroid restore and then switched my 2G to 3G and it went out and no matter what I do it won't come back.
I hope it comes back soon.
I was messing with my phone and then when I rebooted i got no signal. I decided to try a coworker's phone with my SIM and his stopped working. I flashed back to stock and still no signal.
All of that was a waste of time
Thanks T-mobile.
...now, to figure out which ROM i want to try next.
Can anyone recommend a good HERO ROM? I have used 3 different ones that end up giving me problems after a few days of using and they become unbearably unstable.

The widgets are definitely the "fun" part of Hero. I just don't like having to deal with Swap or Partitions, etc. I just like flashing and having everything set... like in CM roms.
This thread will most likely get moved or locked, but thanks for responding guys. Ill make sure I check those ROMs out today.
I have tried 3 different versions of the Cyanogen mod on my Hero over the last few days and I can't get my data to stay on 3g. I'm staying in the same areas I've always used my phone and I never had problems before. Luckily I can stay on wireless most of the day, but 1x is driving me nuts.
Radio version is 2.42.01.04.27
Any suggestions? My last thoughts are to go back to stock and hope I get my 3g back...

Maybe you need to update your PRL?
As far as I know, the only way to do that is to flash a Sense ROM, go in to the settings (Under phone info, I believe), and do a PRL update. Then you can flash back to CM6.1 and see if it worked?
You can also try flashing different radios to see which gives the best signal for your area, but that has a slight chance of bricking your phone, so... Be careful?

PRL might be it. I doubt a different radio would help. I've not had any problems with the newest radio and I've been running on it for a while. I'm beginning to wonder if it's a problem with turning off wifi. If I restart the phone I can start and stay on 3g. But, if I change to wifi then switch back 3g doesn't return probably 90% of the time. Disabling and re-enabling data doesn't help either.

I don't really look at the data notification in the status bar but there have been instances where I have noticed that reads 1x. Mine seems to switch and like the OP said I am in all the same areas prior to the 6.1 update. I am using the same radio and PRL list as prior to the 6.1 update. I also have my wife turned off and never really turn it on. So this leads me to think that 1 either in some cases there is a problem with the data maintaining its 3G connection or 3G was busted prior to 6.1 and is now reading accurately...though I do not think that is the case since my sister has the same phone and is running sense and she is not losing 3G
Just out of curiosity, could this explain my poor batter life, I am only getting maybe 5hrs and that is with little to no use.
I had the same problem going to the Nov2 build of the blackmod, 3G dead, nothing worked to fix it short of flashing over to a stock build and do the re-provisioning via the #*# code. After that I totally wiped the phone and installed the new CM6.1 build and all is well.

Cyanogen 6.1 no 3G, After Using Wireless
I also noticed no 3G on 6.1. If I used wireless (802.11 to router), the 3G connection would be dropped, as expected and desired. Upon turning off wireless, the 3G connection would not be reconnected. This was not a problem with ADW not updating. All network apps reported no connection. After a reboot, the 3G connection was restored, until wireless was enabled.
I'm unable to get a data connection with any 2.2 Rom no matter what I try. I have this problem not only with CM 6 and 6.1 but also with AOSP which till the problem started I'd been running everyday since I rooted my phone in September.
Been running Liquid for about four days and haven't had any problems.

CyanogenMod-6.0.0-Heroc Works
Just to be clear, it was the 6.1 RC1 that gave me the problem with returning to 3G after using wireless.
6.0.0-Heroc works fine.
ive searched around and google but non that fixed my problem.
started this morning. i don't have any 3g icon or any data connection at all.
did a factory reset, no luck. battery pull, no luck.
my wife tbolt works fine with data so i thought it was my sim fried. well i took hers off and installed it on mine no luck. so i put my sim on her tbolt and works great. so could i have a bad data chip or a bad phone? any help would be great..
Is your phone rooted?
Luke
yes. sorry i should have mentioned that.
rooted running synergy rom. just happened early this morning and wierd part is i can pull the battery and once its rebooted i can see 1x then once 3g pops it disconnects it and all i have is just signal bars no 3g icons or anything.

yea ive tried doing my backup i saved. nothing. i went to gingeritis, still nothing. asop roms nothing. i even when back to unrooted and stock and still nothing so im guessing somehow someway phone eff up. could it be possible having a new radio mess things up? i have the mr3 or whatever they call it nowdays loaded to it. i just can't think of what would cause it.

ummm the radio would definitely be more of the problem than the ROM.
First try updating your PRL dial *228 - option 2
If still no luck then I suggest trying a different radio or ask around for similar problems with that radio, maybe someone has a fix.
Flash the OTA MR2 radio.
yea. i went back to stock and s-on and upgraded to the newest software and bam my 3g worked which is weird. but i have one coming on the way so i guess ill just keep this stock till then.
mr3 radio i had it since it came out and never gave me any problems until today. i wonder what happened....
should have tried flashing a different radio see if that helped any... i thought it didn't help any since i reflashed mr3 but damn lol sometimes good ideas always come after youve done it lol. thx guys
update.
installed new update. s-on but the 3g icon disappears after it loads buuut when i click on manual software update the 3g icon pops up and starts download but when i click on browser nothing.whats is up with that.
mobile network on settings says " use phone for data connection when wifi is unavailable" my wifi is off and on my wife says connected instead of what mine says. broken phone but why does manual software update still connects to 3g???
I'm not skyraider Zeus preview and have no no issues till last night. Now all of a sudden since last night I have not been able to get 1x, 3g anything and signal drops. Have multiple lines on verizon and the rest of the phones are fine. Really don't want to change roms but will if I have to.

There are not two separate radios to install. If you downloaded MR3, it will work if you're on a GB Rom. If you're on a froyo Rom then you need a froyo radio.
Also check to make sure your battery door is completely attached. Your antennas are in the door and it must be attached.

Went back to MR2 radio now since I know it's not a radio issue. Battery door is completely sealed. Checked to see if the metal was bent in any way and it's not.
EDIT: Every time I reboot it gains bars back for a bit but no 3g. I've tried calling during this period to no avail. Then it looses bars with just an x over them. The one thing I am thinking is there any possibility that the sim just died...
Did you check your mobile network settings? Are you on LTE only mode possibly?
As goofy as it sounds, when I first rooted my TB awhile back I completely lost signal then was able to pick up 1x and that was it. I did a factory reset on the device (as instructed by VZW), and it actually worked. Nothing else had been done to the device besides a root, no one else could figure out what exactly went wrong, but the wipe restored it back to "factory" root and it worked perfectly.

I have installed ViperOne and Clean Rom and I have the same problem with both. After a while of inactivity my data will just quit working. The icon will still be there but the phone won't connect at all. I have to place it into airplane mode to fix this. And just fyi sleep mode is off and power saver is off. It's just like my phone forgets how to connect after a little while. I had ZERO problems when I was stock. And now this.....please help me!

In essence santod says: flash the stock recovery, do a factory reset from hboot to restore the VZW radios, then restore your setup. Should work with most sense roms, but so far the people solving this issue all flashed a RUU.

In essence santod says: flash the stock recovery, do a factory reset from hboot to restore the VZW radios, then restore your setup. Should work with most sense roms, but so far the people solving this issue all flashed a RUU.
Anybody have a link handy for the stock recovery?

Stock Recovery: Link :good:
You can find that and my firmware links in this thread.
Did the stock recovery so far so good but I won't know for sure until I get out and about today. It seems I didn't have the issue until it dropped from 4g to 3g back to 4g and have a decent 4g signal at home.
For now it seems as though that did the trick. I didn't loose data all day, we will see though.
Well it didn't work, I had to toggle airplane mode several times today to get data to work again.

Are you going to RUU?
That's what I plan to do tomorrow. It's getting to be extremely annoying. Not even toggling airplane mode or mobile data on/off does anything. I have to reboot every time.

RUU'd, stock recovery, flashed radios, and new SIM. I've tried everything. It seems as though if I'm in a low signal area where I go from 4g to 3g to Wi-Fi it happens. It's like there's a handoff problem between all the radios. Will show 4 bars of 4g but under mobile data in settings says disconnected.
Mine just started doing this. I'll RUU when I get back home to Texas.

I can confirm that it did fixed the issue, I didn't loose data all day no matter if wifi, 4g,3g, or 1x,
Same here. In the last 5 days I travelled in 3 states, large cities and very rural areas where it dropped to 3G or 1x - it never had problems to return to 4G (or getting a data connection at all).
This fix proves what's so great about these forums! I probably would have ditched a phone I totally love in all other aspects due to a problem that OEM customer service would not even acknowledge existed!
