Cant keep signal

I went from humble 4.22 that had some signal problem to EP3HA][Stock][ODIN] EP3HA Full & Debloated Deodexed (10/9/11) and it was worse. Flashed a new radio and still just as bad. Could it be the sim card? Should I just flash back to stock and see what happens and then get one if its not better?

Could you elaborate your "can't keep signal" scenario?
If you wished to keep EP3 rom, then just flash EE4 radio, see if it fix your radio problem.

Sorry didnt get any sleep last night. Yes I cant keep a 3g/4g signal. Either drops or is slow as crap. Went back to stock and its fine so far. Didnt think about just doing the ee4 radio. Guess Ill go back to humble 4.22 as I like the theme and if I have a problem try some of the older modems.

Welcome to the world of the Droid charge.

Yeah its the phone man. I'm constantly rebooting.

I have been having a similar problem. Constantly dropping out on data. Just flashed stock EE4 and haven't lost data yet.

Exactly - the unicorn who drops off my mail told me the same thing

I think it's a 4g thing.
My boss has a Bionic (POS), the guy at the desk next to mine has a t-bolt & I have a Charge. As far as I can see, they are all about equal as far as dropping/not dropping data.

After your secretary gets the RAZR and your assistant gets the Galaxy Nexus let us know if they also drop data ;-) I keed, I keed!

Is this normal? (New to at&t after many years)

Ive been on verizon for years and made the switch over to at&t to get the one x and have to say Im loving it. At&t has really made big improvements to there network as far as everywhere around my area goes.
Here is whats going on though:
Every now and then I can pull my phone out and turn the screen on to see it show full bars E then 5 seconds later it will change to full bars G then another 5 or so seconds full bars 4G. Its not a big deal but just wondering is it normal?
Another thing Ive noticed is when I leave my driveway of my house and get out of range of my wifi it will go to no service then to 4g. Its fairly quick but I dont remember it with any other phone Ive owned.

Could be signal issues with your towers or a sim card issue .

Its not the service its the phone. It takes a while to realize the data connection has changed and therefore updates it slowly. You should be fine its just annoying as hell if you are watching it all the time.

Yeh its more of a mental thing than anything. It hasnt every caused me problems as actually using the phone but watching it cycle through E-G-then 4G a few times every day is starting to get to me. Ive tried all the radios also and Im currently on 1.88 as it seems to have the best speeds. Maybe I should try a new sim.

Did you ever get it resolved?

While this does sound like a bug could it also be a power saving feature designed to put the phone in the lowest power state when there has been a long rest in data or another source, WiFi, is available?

It went away with the vivid when lte went active...

I was having similar issues until I upgraded to the 1.88 RUU. Now I'm running CM9 with no data issues. I think it is the phone or rather the software. Data would stay on E but there was no signal. Had to reboot the doggone phone ever so often just to connect to data.

Data only working on sense ROMS on my phone?

One day all of a sudden as i was running cm9 alpha 5 my data went away. The h or 4g icon flashes and disappears in half a second. Ive tryed fresh flashing cm9 alpha 5/6 and MikMIUI data doesnt work on any of those. Wifi works but i need my 4g connection for when im out of range of a router.
Ive tryed a couple of sense roms and the data works there (mik XE, miktouch, virtuous infinity, primadona) but i cant get it working on senseless roms /: .
Im not the biggest fan of sense can somebody help please?

This is a commonly reported issue with CM9 A5/6. MikMIUI is based on CM9 and so has some of the same issues. Time will tell if it is insurmountable.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement

So basically im not the only one having issues with data. Is there anyway around this?
Also my data was working fine on cm9 alpha 5 for a month until about 3 days ago.
I really want to run miui because of the extensive customization options but i need my data plan working /:

I had the same problem with CM9 A5 about a month ago. Out of the blue, it just stopped working. Somewhere on these boards, there's mention of changing the APN settings which I did and it fixed the data issue I was having. If I can find it again, I'll post the link.

Ive tryed reflashing a billion times and redownloading also but i cant get data to work
Sent from my HTC MyTouch 4G Slide using Tapatalk 2

Are you S-On or S-Off? If S-ON, did you flash the boot.img file before flashing a new ROM? When you flashed your new ROM, did you wipe all data along with it? Davlic, user data, etc.? Unfortunately, I don't really know what else to tell you other than to do a nandroid backup, wipe everything off your phone and see what kind of results you get. Once my issue was corrected, I really didn't go any deeper into why it happened and didn't get much of a response when I inquired about it.

Yeah im gonna try that. But yeah i am s-off and when i flash a rom i wipe cache and dalvik and i format system, cache, and data manually.

Finally got it working! All I did was what I used to do every time I installed a rom with a different kernel, mount system and data then install. I'm so happy I got it working and batterylife shouldn't be an issue with mikmiui since my 3800mah battery is coming in today
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using Tapatalk 2

jeffakajeff in the CM9 alpha thread suggested to reflash the radio. I didn't find a link here on xda, but i didn't look very hard. I did find it on rootzwiki, as it was pinned at the top.
I have this issue. Seemed to crop up every 2-3 days recently, even though i have been running A6 since its release. It progressively got worse until i just completely wiped and restored my device today.
Gonna flash the radio and see if the issue returns.
*edit*
Don't forget to wipe cache/dalvik after flashing radio or it won't boot

what kernel did you use, just curious?

I used the kernel mikmiui comes with. All I did was wipe everything data both caches and then I formatted data cache and system. And before I flashed miui I mounted data and system.
On a side note man this battery makes the phone twice as thick but I think its worth it. I haven't charged it yet and I've only lost 5% with wifi and bluetooth on. Screen times been about 45 minutes

I started having this problem with my phone. I talked to a girl at T-Mobile and she said the SIM card was having issues and replaced it. I had the same problem the next day and went in again. Since I have the insurance plan, she just RMA'd the phone for free, saying it was a problem they've been having with the radio/antenna stuff. The radio would get finger-meltingly hot and flash the H icon on and off and would never get a mobile data connection. I also tried backing the clock speed way down below stock to see if that resolved it.

HELP!!!!!

my one x started going crazy yesterday, pressing its own buttons and what not. i rebooted and it stopped. now today its doing it again and it wont stop no matter what. i tried nandroid, factory resetting. can i use kennethpenns stock 1.85 update tool to go back stock in case i have to send it in? how does that work? does anyone have any advice?

is it the capacitive buttons? do you have a really tight case on the phone by any chance?

no gunny, phones naked and has never been dropped or seen water... havent really flashed anything in the last 5-6 days... its throughout the system... even happens in twrp, no matter what rom im using.... when i get home ill try to get an official update and see what happens... but i did notice its mainly in one spot, mainly middle right of the screen... example would be in the calculator app in portrait, it keeps pressing the number 6

Weird. Hope you get an easy fix.

Maybe it doesn't get any easier than this, it felt hot so I turned my CPU freq wayyyy down... Started working right. Now I have it at normal levelsvand its fine? What the hell? Its the first hiccup this phone ever had... Certainly is weird.. wanted to add also, tried to flash roms I had, it kept saying failed.... Would it be a good idea to save my pics on computer and completely erase the sdcard?

Were you using a ROM that was OC'd, or did you have your phone overclocked on an unusually high level?

No bro... Running h8's CM10... Minimum 384, Max 1512 on demand... I tell you what though, I am at work (welder) and in south Louisiana it was 92° and 85% humidity lol. Maybe there was condensation inside? Oh well, seems all is well now... But then again, I thought the same thing when it briefly happened to me yesterday.....

best way is to relock and ruu
and use stock for a while see if it happens again..
if so...go exchange lol
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda app-developers app

That's what I'm looking to do... but Im Trying to read up on relocking before I try first.. never done it yet and I don't know anything about adb and fast boot, much less to ruu. But what's the odds of art or HTC rejecting me because of the boot loader stating "relocked"? Or was this fixed? And also what's the odds of rerooting? Should be good as long as I ruu 1.85 I believe.. that's what I was on when I rooted

Once you unlocked you can always unlock again. I wrote a adb primer. It's a sticky in general.

I've been off of work for 3 hours now and my phone hasn't had one single glitch. So I'll give it one more day to see how she acts. I have everything downloaded ready to roll if it happens again... she acts up and I'll have to knock her down a few notches

1. Belongs in Q&A
2. Are you rooted?
3. If so, What ROM, kernel?
4. Did you do a clean flash or you didn't wipe?
5. Check if you have signal it could be just dead areas you're in.
6. If stock, it's probably due to bad signal.

I was having the same issue with calls and voicemails. I called AT&T and they did a reset on their end which did involve reboot on my end but it didn't have any other impact as far as data and root and they then tested the response on the phone and it had improved significantly. This was right around the time Sandy hit.

i had this exact problem.
att first reset my sim card or something via phone support. nothing.

reset my sim. nothing.
replaced my sim. nothing.
at that point i guess i was SOL. it wasnt happening all the time, but it was happening occasionally, so i just bared with it.
i dont know when i noticed it stop happening and fix itself, but it wasnt till after i achieved root and flashed a different rom that i noticed it gone completely.
i do live in an area that has poor reception for most carriers, yet down the street reception is perfectly fine.
i would miss calls, and not receive missed call notifications. i did not receive texts at times, and wouldnt notice till i was flooded by a few text messages all at once with time stamps corresponding to past few hours. sometimes me using an app on wifi/data would trigger all my text messages to come in at once.
now, i know it wasnt necessarily an issue of reception or service, because during some of those "blackout" periods that i happened to catch, i did have service and would be using my phone for miscellaneous things, then get flooded by texts and email notifications later
hope this helps in some way
