After reading thread upon thread and flashing rom upon rom, wiping and nullifying the way along. I still have this issue that many of you are aware and just hoping by chance I may have missed the answer and someone can help me.
I am experiencing the bug where if you lose data, whether it be by switching to airplane mode and back, shutting of the phone, not rebooting it, or just a drop in coverage, when it comes back the APN list is cleared and can no longer connect to any data. Calls and texts seem to go through, but surfing and picture messaging don't work until the phone is rebooted, normally or through the button combo.
I've tried wiping everything several times, even uses the nullifier dual wipe twice and it still happens. I've tried all kinds of roms, 2 different MIUI, Eaglesblood, Kang Banger, Weapon, they all do the same thing. The only thing that "works" is restoring my very first stock nandroid. But once I go from that, wipe, and flash another, the problem returns. If it matters, my order of rom flashing was stock then Singh MIUI-GalNet MIUI-Kang Banger-EaglesBlood-Weapon-Singh. All gingerbread roms (I believe).
So if anyone can offer me just the slightest of solutions, it will be so very much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
When you saying "wiping"...what exactly are you wiping?

I've worked pm with him, he's wiping system, cacheS, data, flashes zips then boots and then reboots later and fixes permissions. He still gets data drops and loss of apn's.

Yeah mt3g has been a real help, but we're stumped. I wipe the data, wipe the cache, wipe the davlik cache, format the data cache and system, flashed, wait 20 minutes, reboot and fix permissions, reboot and wait again. Even flashed different kernels. All to no avail. And for some odd reason, I use T-Mobile, but I have Simple in my APN list as well and I think that leads to the issue.
I noticed Harsh's latest Kernel fixed the issue for me.

Why are you bringing up a kernel that is for cm9 when the discussion is about cm7?

I have flashed the adrnylyn bamf 1.4 rom with the 4.3B Kernel. When i reboot the phone, I cannot connect to the mobile network. Phone says it's connected, but only shows TX, no RX. Any thoughts?
Same has happened to me, same kernel. Haven't found a fix yet other than keeping my battery door off so I can get a data signal. And I'm in phx where 4g blasts. Verizon my have to send me another

When you flashed your ROM did you wipe the data?
I have been using his ROMS/Kernels since the beginning and havent had a problem by wiping everytime I flash.
Try to toggel the mobile network on and off. See if it helps.
Like posted above... make sure you wipe all data...
I had same kernal/rom combo and no issues. If toggling the radio off/on doesn't fix it try wiping data, cache, davlik cache, and then reflash the rom/kernel.
I had nothing but trouble losing data with perfect storm and Drod's 1.8 kernel... Flashed to Adryn's de-bloat rom and it was fixed.
Your kernel wouldn't have any effect on your reception, btw.
Wiping data goes hand in hand when applying a new rom I know that. I've troubled shooted this thing to the T and same outcome. Even going back to stock and wiping data doesn't work. I'm currently using the bolt without my battery door on and I have data its 1x but its something .. ill try flashing that debloat Rom to see what happens

I don't know if I am doing something wrong, or if I'm skipping a step. In the past two weeks, I have tried Catyrom, Numas, Fusion XII, Dlev Rom, and have had problems with bootlooping, won't boot at all, and needing 3 or more tries with the 3 button technique to get to recovery. I am not new to flashing at all, and I am not touting any rom over another. Just wondering if anyone else has had these issues. The rom I keep goingback to has had no issues at all. I like the way it runs, but am itching to flash new stuff.
Could it be the Core A2 kernel? The UCKK4 modem?
Curious and befuddled!

I don't see how you would bootloop with catyrom or numbas because this are native infuse roms ...not ports llike the others....are you wiping data, cache, and dalvik cache?

When on the Catyrom, I had something happen that I've never seen. everything was running well, until I tried to use "Display/ Fonts/" to change system fonts. Then it would freeze up, go to a black screen, with an Android in the top left corner and a message in yellow "kernel error".
The other roms seem to have a problem with the GB Core A2 kernel.
And yes, I always do a complete wipe of data, cache and dalvik!
I am really confused, but will keep trying. Funny thing, every time I go back to Sensation 1.1 with UCKK4 and Core A2, it runs beautiful.
Next time I flash, I may try the following, in this order: wipe data, then cache, THEN go to mounts/storage and format system, then clear DALVIK Cache.
It worked on DoctorZ rom, it may do the trick for these others!

Not sure if you knew but this was a documented bug in Caty. Last I checked no one had found a reason or fix yet
Edit: my apologies dman, perhaps I am remembering what I read incorrectly. sorry!
That's funny...first I heard...not 5 min ago I changed fonts with no issue whatsoever

I have just recently begun modding my G2x. I can install ROMs without any problems but I've since been interested in flashing a custom kernel. Information is sort of everywhere and what I do manage to find I am worried about it being out-of-date. Anyway, I flashed cm7.1 (the stable release) and it worked fine until it started fc-ing everything google related (something to do with sync?). I decided to try flashing kernels (wiping caches as instructed) and could never get one to work. I've since flashed the latest cm nightly (201 I think) and tried trinity with it. Still nothing. I've since read that I should let the phone sit for 10-20 minutes but after about 20 minutes it is just a black screen and nothing ever happens. It does get really hot however. Anyway I have tried flashing kernels multiple times and nothing has ever worked, same story every time. Any way somebody could tell me what I'm doing wrong? Tell me what's compatible (as maybe sorta stable) with the ROMs I'm using? HAHA and if it's not asking too much...maybe some links too? Sorry, just very new to this and very eager to learn. I just have a bit of trouble figuring out what's supposed to be compatible and where to find it. THANKS!
Start over fresh, wipe data x 2, wipe system x 2, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, flash cm7 nightly, dont reboot yet, wipe cache ONLY, wipe dalvik cache ONLY, flash kernel try faux123 (make sure kernel is for cm7) latest or morfic latest, reboot, enjoy ....
NVIDIA NEVER AGAIN!

Thanks will give it a shot in the morning. Too much of a headache all day. Back in a useable state and I want to keep it that way for a bit haha. Will post results.
I still haven't tried to flash a new kernel... that is coming in a bit. I do have a question though... I'm interested in getting my phone in the cleanest state possible before doing anything further. I basically want my external sd cleaned up (I want to just reformat it) before flashing a rom again. What files/directories are absolutely essential to keep? As I said, I want to just wipe it clean but I'm not sure I can do that.

So just to be thorough I can safely remove the cwm directory as well? Just delete it all put my rom and kernel zips back and I'm good?

Make sure you flashed recovery through nvflash

Tried to just flash 0.4.7 and it did the same thing as before. Waited 20 minutes before taking out the battery then tried to boot it again. Waited 20 more minutes and all it ever did both times was get hot. Same results as before.

After flashing hellfire ICS I wasnt able to recieve any texts. I then flashed Hellfire cm7 and still same issue, also tried eaglesblood. I then tried getril, it wasnt matching but updating it didnt do anything. Now I just flashed 2.3.3 and text is working but I have no data. With every flash I wiped everything and used g2x scrubber. Also I tried using different APN...What can I do to fix this?
So, you reverted to a non 4.0.3 rom and the issue still persist, like a GB 2.3.7 rom?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
yea
Yea, last night I flashed a eaglesblood over 2.3.3, this time manualy wiping and not using scrubber..and it worked, I was able to use data and recieve texts. But now it just stopped working and I am unable to recieve texts again. I have fixed permissions, cleared caches, and tried all the RIL in getril. Why would it randomly stop working??? this is so annoying
..BTW i restored only a few apps with titanium and did not restore any of the data, just apps.

Maybe try flashing a new baseband and then going into your apn list and restoring default apns.
Could possibly be a sim card problem or sim card reader hardware issue... dont wanna jump to the worst possible scenario tho..
I have the jul 15 baseband, isnt that the latest? Idk if it would be hardware since everything was good before I flashed ics .
When you flash, are you wiping data, cache, dalvik cache, and system before flashing?
Yea, I wipe data,cache, dalvik, then format system, then flash rom which is on root of sd card.
Is there anything else I can delete/format when installing a rom? What data is being retained that I have this issue with every rom?
update: Just flashed bionix 2.3.3 rom with stock kernel and everything is working, its like it works only when it wants to..ill try a cm7 rom again later.
you aren't the first to report the same exact thing... I'm waiting for jboxer or another dev to say something... it might have something to do with T-Mobile or your SIM... have you tried entering your number manually... have you tried without data connected or on wifi?
Didn't hear the mention of g2x scrubber always a good thing...

Something I would do would be to...
Download Rom/Gapps
Unzip to make sure it's complete and uncorrupted DL
CWM Recovery
Wipe Data/Cache/System/Davlik/BattStats
G2xScrubber (In case)
Install Rom
Install Gapps
Wipe Cache/Davlik/BattStats
Fix Permissions
Boot let it sit quick..
Hard Reboot (Power + Volume Up)
Edit: For some ICS Roms sometimes you have to enable data or toggle it on/off for it to work.
ok

I did the above process , installed eaglesblood and trinity elp kernel and it wouldnt boot. Tried it again with t15 kernel and everything seems to be working.My phone number under call settings is correct...I hope it doesnt just randomly stop working like before.
Update:....cant download anything from market, keeps giving me errors. wth lol
your phone is possessed... simple as that I guess lol.

this was a replacement from tmobile, my old one was perfect but i broke the headphone jack.
....its working now.Dont ask me how. All is well in the cosmos.Thanks
Okay, my issues started when I switched to the baked rom. I had gotten google now working fairly well on ICS. After I switched the voice recognition just hears me as background noise. It will listen then just go back to the tap the mic to speak screen. No searching. No crashing. Nothing. I even tried switching to cyanogenmod 10. Exact same issue. I think the offline voice files might be corrupted. Does anyone know if I might be right and if so how I can delete them?
P.S.- I always do a clean install. Factory reset, clear data in CWM, clear cache (for redundancy), clear dalvik cache.
Thank you in advance.
sincerely
- Someone clearly missing something obvious.
I know that in CM10 they say the issue is because its using the mic on the top of the device instead of the one on the bottom, and the top one is normally for noise cancelling. Try speaking into the mic at the top and see if it helps. Beyond that I can't give you any help.
I tried your idea. Nothing. Did ANOTHER clean install. Nothing. Did your idea with the clean install. Worked like a charm. Thanks!

You are still dirty flashing. A clean flash involves formatting system. That is where old rom is located and why phone will reboot after factory reset, dalvic and cache wipe. A clean wipe will not boot since there is no longer an OS/ROM on device.
I know what a clean install is. I have been doing it. I tried his idea AFTER I did another clean install and it worked fine.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
What prdog1 is telling you is that you are actually not doing a clean install. Factory reset/data does not remove the original rom partioned on your sd. In order to have a true clean install you need to go into mounts+storage and format the system. That removes the old rom so flashing the new one is truly a clean install. Your technically doing a dirty flash still, which is generally fine when loading the same rom base.

This is the reason many people have problems that the majority don't have. Flashing different rom bases on top of each other can corrupt the rom and no one can troubleshoot the answer unless it is a rom bug that the majority has. Factory reset, cache and dalvic wipes help eliminate apps and data problems.
