Just rooted and installed the latest MIUI Rom (6.1) for the first time and I have not been able to connect to data. I know you have to toggle data and tried the GSM only and back to GSM/CDMA auto, however, no luck. I would post in the specific thread, but as a new user I am not allowed to. Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance!
Edit: Wow for anyone still having this problem I turned on USB debugging on it worked. Not sure if that helped, but I think it worked for me.
Edit 2: Haha nevermind it was only a short fix. Still no data
Wow thats a weird fix. I would have opened the "download" app and switch between download via wifi and mobile data that fixed mine. Anyway glad u figured it out.

Well you are right haha because it only lasted about an hour. Very odd. Tried to replicate it but couldn't.
Anyway, I tried what you said. It was already on mobile network, but I toggled it anyway. No difference. When I first change the phone settings it will show 3g and 1x, however, no data and then it goes straight to cell signal only. Love the rom, but no data is a killer. Seems like everyone is able to eventually get it.
Alright for anyone else having this problem I left it on CDMA only instead of auto and the 3g is working. Not sure if 4g will work, but I can edit later and let everyone know.
If anyone knows a 4g fix let me know.
Edit: Just got 4g randomly haha I have no idea what is going on.

Had my TB for about a month now, everything was great till my 3G decided it didn't want to work. It just died completely out of nowhere. So after googling,I found if I dial ##778#, I can reset my modem and my 3G will come back.
The first time it died I was on Das BAMF 3.0 RC. Dialing ##778# did not work. I just got a FC. So I said screw it and unrooted my phone and flashed the stock froyo ROM back. Used that for a few days and my 3G died again, so I tried ##778# and it worked, I got my 3G back. I figured it was a random bug, so I put a different ROM on - samething happened: no 3G, ##778# doesn't work. Since it died again, and I didn't have access to the menu to reset it, I had to unroot my phone again. So then I rerooted but kept the stock froyo rom on just in case (since I knew I could reset the 3G here). Everything is good so far...
Only problem is, I don't really wanna use the stock rom. Every rom I've tried doesn't seem to have ##778# working... do you all know anyway to access that menu other than dialing? Or a different way to access it on other ROMs? Thanks!
tldr: What ROMs allow me to dial ##778# to fix my phone loosing 3G randomly? Everyone I've tried I get FCs
There is an app called phone info that allows you to do the same thing and should run on any routed Tbolt.

LTE onoff is an app for the thunderbolt that puts you in the menu you are looking for also. If I remember correctly its from team AndIRC plus its free and works great

Thanks for the replies, but that's not the menu I need to access... I'd post a link but I can't since I have less than 8 posts. If you google "EPST thunderbolt" and go to images, you'll see what I'm talking about
i just tried it works on gingerbean but i hit edit it tells me enter code does anyone know the code is thankxs

The fact that you saw that is great, so that's one ROM I can try now woohoo! Thanks!
My wife and I both have Charges, mine is rooted and running GummyCharged, her Charge is just running stock. After setting her phone up, we noticed a 3G icon with a "d" under it. From doing some searching online, I found a post at another forum saying that the d means "dormant." Just means that the phone isn't sending or receiving any data so the connection is dormant. That part I understand I guess, my problem with that explanation is that when she would have the 3Gd icon, we couldn't even bring up anything on the browser. So it's like the connection went to sleep and nothing we did could wake it up except a reboot.
I guess my question is, does anyone know what this actually is and if there's a way to stop it? Should I just root her phone too and throw a ROM on it because I haven't seen that icon since back in the Razr days.
There is another thread in the general section about signal issues. Several different thoughts. You could always toggle the data connection from 4g to 3g then back or someone suggested to airplane mode then back. Its all a crazy mess but check out the other post. The other day it happened to my wifes phone and mine. She is stock and Im rooted. Actually had the problem last night I was downloading great and then all of a sudden boom.

Thanks for the info! I may have looked at that post, not sure though. I looked at a lot of posts but none of them addressed my wifes exact issue. I'll check it out though, thanks again!
Hey guys I couldn't find the forum for the ROM so i had to make a new thread i apologize for that. I got the ROM download link in one of the other threads someone had just posted a link to download it. its the DFT freedom V1 For sprint HTC Arrive. Anyways, the issue that i am having is that when i put my phone on WiFi it works for about 5 minutes and than it just stops working. As soon as i take it off of WiFi the data or app loads right up. I was curious if anyone else that is on Sprint and is running this ROM has had any problems? or if someone could please post a link to the thread with that ROM so that i can see if maybe there is an update? I love love love the ROM but this WiFi is really bugging me, i use WiFi religiously.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I've always had this problem, at least in Mango. It's quite annoying and I have to toggle my wifi off and back on again. If there is a fix I'd sure like to know.
Are you connecting anything to your shared WiFi? Because if you don't the connection automatically shuts down. I believe it does this this to save on battery and to save on data.

Yea I've had the same issue not really sure how to fix it. Hopefully it's fixed in the next release
Ran into something somewhat similar, will have to look around a bit but I found a fix is to disable Data Connection within the Cellular settings when you want WiFi to work. :/
I'll see what I can dig up otherwise.
The problem I have is that the Wifi MAC ID changes everytime the phone is rebooted or started after a shutdown. Since I filter by MAC in my router, it is a major pain to keep changing my router settings everytime the phone runs out of juice.
So this is a problem with Mango in general and not just the DFT rom? That's good to know. Thanks so much for the tip on shutting down the data connection when using WiFi. I will actually give that a goski.
On another note, does anyone on sprint have trouble sending picture messages? Me and my wife both have this HTC arrive on sprint and our pic mails fail almost everytime and same with receiving the pic messages. We need to turn off WiFi, restart the phone and than about 80% of the time it works. I seen on thi9s ROM that it has a spot for son setting and maybe if I fill that out it will work?
Also, does anyone have a link to the rom I mentioned in the first post? I'm on the HTC arrive sprint dft v1 for gold and was curious if there is any updates on the rom.
One last thing lol, is there anyway to do a complete backup of the phone and apps so that when we flash to a new rom it backs everything up? Thanks in advance!

I had problems with MMS failing all the time too. I fixed it by changing the network profile and prl. After that it's never had a problem. Hope that helps.
So i wentto settings than celluar and i did the update profile and theupdate prl and my picture messages still fail every single time. So i dont know what is going on. My wife has the same phone and the same rom and she also has the same problem. I dont beliebve it to be rom related because we both had the issue on sprints stock mango wp7 rom.
Recently i have been having trouble with my phone going and staying in 1x mode. i dont know what is causing it and i looked around for the APN setting thati would use for this phone and wasnt able to find ones that matched what it asked for in there. Does anyone have the APN settings? I just hard reset my device to see if that fixes it.
Is there a dedicated thread about the DFT rom? i keep getting 1x on my phone making it pretty useless and i checked my wifes phone and same story, i keep posting my questions here because i dont want tot pollute and i cant find the DFT rom for Sprint thread if there is one. any help?
or anyone know the proper APN settings?
Just wanted to bump on this. This WiFi issue is brutal. Is there no official support channel for this DFT ROM? I'm going to have to move to a different ROM soon, as it doesn't seem to fail over gracefully from WiFi to data.
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.
i messed up something on my sd card. im on liquid ics and everything was great. after updating the radio i went into the card to either rename or delete the PG051IMG so I could boot into recovery. I think what happened is that I deleted something similar to it in error. now I only get 1x no matter what rom I use from a backup. Am i screwed or can I fix this? everthing else is fine. I guess I got carried away messing with something that wasn't broken.
Thanks for any help.
Ed
The fact that you get 1x has nothing to do with something on your ad card. Have you tried putting your phone in airplane mode and taking it out? Also if that doesnt work then maybe try going to back to your old radio. Radios are different for everyone and your results may not be the same as someone else's.

thank you very much for the reply. it started working now. 4G. maybe it was a coincidence and it was a temporry verizon thing.
thats a relief.
I'd hate to screw up my tbolt now. panic attack.
I've had the bolt since launch day and really enjoy it with liquid ics or gb.
Yea no problem. Data is still a little finicky with the liquid builds. They're still trying to nail down the ril so that data is more reliable.

I usually find myself able to get data back faster by going to the data usage tool and just turning mobile data off and back on since it can sometimes take a bit for my airplane mode to go on and off

Yea toggling data on and off will work sometimes. There are times where putting it into airplane mode or rebooting are the only solutions.

I also forgot to post that I have also had trouble getting stuck in 1x mode. I've had to go into LTE On/Off and change the setting back and forth there as well as switch the Network Mode under the Mobile network settings to force it into 3g. Only had that a couple of times, havent really had many problems lately.
