Same here...6PM to about 7:30 PST...weird thing is the wife's G2 still had connection and the restore of service correlated with my restoring of a nandroid, so I'm not sure if it's the network or some crap app I installed ( still leaning towards the app).
It's a nationwide outage
http://www.theverge.com/2012/7/2/3133983/t-mobile-suffering-data-outage
I'm back up and running. Was down from 6:15-7:42pm pst.
Some dude spills a soda on the keyboard at the command center and the who system is down nation wide.
Seems to be up and running fine now Houston TX

I've tried several resets, I even restored a two day old backup made via spb backup and yes, have also gone into "connection setup" under connections and let it setup AT&T as my provider which subsequently asks for restarting the pda. Also, the HSDPA utility is still showing a check mark on HSPDA On.
All of the above have failed to get my phone back to 3G speeds. I've even tried to surf/download thinking maybe just the icon is showing "G" or "E" however its painstakingly slow now.
So, its either the "G" icon or "E" is what shows now. This all happened when I looked at my phone this morning after SPB backup had performed its scheduled backup that was triggered around 2:30am.
other than that... THIS IS AN AMAZING ROM BY DUTTYTHROY!! YOU RULE DUDE..
oh.. almost forgot: my radio is 1.27.14.09 which I've read that only works with the AT&T Tilt, which is what I have. Just an FYI.
Someone please help as I'm a heavy data user hence can't afford to be without 3G/HSDPA ... TY

Please - somebody tell me this isn't true!!!

Cite your sources.
I get 3G/HSDPA just fine on my Kaiser, whenever at&t actually built out some towers.
When I first tried this rom (radio 1.27.14.09) I lost all connection with AT&T but after several hours and traveling into another area everything seemed to fall back in place. I've also noticed that the phone is very slow to reconnect after passing through blacked out areas, not sure why other AT&T phones lose connection but come back online much faster.
Otherwise the ROM is great.
Is it possibly something to do with your rate plan?
EDIT: nevermind I'm using a diff rom I think

It shouldn't be my rate plan as I have the PDA unlimited for $39.99. Also, here's an update. This morning when I woke up my Tilt it was still showing E and my wishful thinking of Santa giving me a pre-christmas gift by fixing my phone (I'm easy) were just about drowned. ...however out of nowhere and without doing anything to the phone like soft-reset etc., the 3G icon came back and now its been coming back intermittently..
Now I'm pretty sure that its not that I'm traveling in a non-3G area and thats why its coming back intermittently as I live in a decent size metro area of Jacksonville FL and also because the areas I've been to this morning have always had 3G.. unless I'm wrong.. which I sure hope so..
BTW: I "downgraded" my Radio to 11.17 last night itself as one of the things I was trying to fix this issue. Just an FYI.
Here it is in a nutshell!!
Please note the following:
1) Got my new (unlocked) tytn II on dec 12.
*Sim in at 6:00pm. Had 3g & hsdpa till 10:00 pm. Went to bed.
*Dec 13th could not make calls or connect to data while on 3g.
*Calls would disconnect. Hsdpa message "the answering modem has disconnected "
* Switched back to gsm mode. Phone works but no 3g or hsdpa support.
*Dec 14 called att. Customer service said "unknown device" not supported.
*Transfer to data tech " Stated unsupported device" cant add the pda data package for $39.95. Stated my imei was blocked from 3g & hsdpa because of unlocked device status. But edge & gsm would work. Note edge & gsm modes work.
*Data tech said go to att store and get another branded att 3g device and use it to activate the pda data plan.
*I did this at 2:30 pm est. It worked for about 1/2 hour till 3:00 pm est. So much for my $39.95.
*Called att again & got a product support specialist(pr guy haha).he stated:
2) Att will not support an unlocked device.
*I said what about my $39.95???? I also said that i was a paying us att customer and was willing to pay for the high speed service. He said that they could no change my device unlocked status within the att network even though i was willing to pay for the data plan. I was pissed at that point. I told him that the hardware supports 3g & hsdpa and stated that att had locked a paying customer out of the 3g network. He said again "att does not support unlocked devices". I then asked him why i had access to the gsm & edge network and why att supported me on it and not 3g or hsdpa? I must have stumped him because he put me on hold. His reply after talking his boss was "att wil not support an unlocked device. We went back & forth like this until I Said "THIS IS BULLSHIP & HUNG UP.
* He call me back about an hour later because i threatened to switch back to verizon an stated " if you had the att original rom and if the phone was carrier locked it may change my device status" I said that I would give it a shot.
* Got the orig. att rom from here. Used sspl to apply cid per the reverting instructions. Phone said att 3g on startup & cid-8. Still no 3g. flashed hspl and bact to duttys rom 7.b for now.
In summary I can get the 3g & hsdpa signal but nothing works when connected! CAN YOU SAY CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT!!!
3G Test on AT&T network
How can we test if we are getting 3G speeds after changing our ROMs? I see the 3G and H logo's but don't think I'm getting the speeds.
Does changing the ROM unlock our AT&T phones?
Is there a ROM that is transparent to AT&T and allow us to use the 3G speeds?
Will reverting back to the AT&T Rom allow us to get the 3G speeds again?
newbie
Are you on drugs? , AT&T unlocks their phones, that does not matter , the reps you were speaking with are retarded they use a BILLING SYSTEM called TELEGENCE if you enter a IMEI wrong or of a unlocked device it gives back a UNKNOWN device message which means pretty much the reps can and if they dont want to , wont help you get your data working because they are lazy as ****. they do not block data on phones nor can they monitor your device to know what you are doing. their HLR's are only one way addressable.
Ok, I just upgraded to this ROM (cus duttys roms are amazing) after I read your post and...
I ran into some connection problems after my programs started looking for "my ISP" (isp.cingular) instead of "MEdia Net" (wap.cingular) In "advanced settings" in "connections" I re-set programs to run off MEdia Net, and it seems all is well
I think it might have switched when I was screwing with the comm manager and turned G3 off
DISCLAIMER: I'm a noob so take my advice with a grain of salt haha
No probs w/ ATT
My unlocked phone works just fine on the ATT network and i constantly get 3G UMTS and HSDPA speeds. Att does not block any device you are able to use on their network as they have roaming contracts with cell phone service providers across the world. If your device does not receive 3g speeds you can have your imei number added to the ATT allowed database just call 611 from your phone and talk to the service rep. If they give you any problem then call back and tell them you want to add the imei number of a wireless data card for computer and they will add that for you.
Must have been smoking the glass pipe!
Sorry folks.
This is a reception problem for me.
ATT really jerked me around.
The problem is a weak 3g signal.
If i dont have four bars 3g & hspda fail.
I went & sat under an att tower and everything works.
As soon as I drive away from the tower and the signal strength drops I loose 3g calling & Hsdpa.
Is there a fix.

How about this quote straight from the at&t CEO?

Digg and random bloggers aren't really a good source. I remember the bullfrap article on Digg about Hummers being more environmentally conservative over a lifetime than any other green car.
have you tired having your sim card replaced? I had a similar issue where i was not able to call or receive calls in 3g but could on edge for a good day. Went to ATT and found out that others were having same issue with kraiser had them replace my sim card and everything worked great after.
Got 3G back and for good.... so far!

thanks for the tip jellorice.. I actually got my 3G back since yesterday and its been working great ever since. As for the sim being faulty, Thats something I didn't even think of and now that you've mentioned it, I'll keep in mind for future troubleshooting as I'm sure some other issue will crop up.
Nevertheless, Dutty's ROM 6 is UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME!!! I'm sure Dutty's gotten numb to all the kudos he's got and still is getting, being in Gazillions... but I wish I had better words to describe this ROM as for someone like me who is virtually bringing food on the table because of the Tilt (heavy business user), the key strengths of his ROM are just Marvelous.
Sry for getting sidetracked.. I got a little exited there.
27 days into the TB and since 3pm yesterday no more 3G signal. I only can get 4G when I'm in town. Not sure what happened, worked a bit with Verizon who actually thought it could be a tower issue but talked to a few friends at work they have 3G no problem. I flashed back to stock rooted, then stock no root and still same issue. Sucks at home since 4G doesn't go that far and without 3G I get no signal. Verizon said no problem take to the store and they replace.
Well its not the phone.... SIM CARD!!
Guys at the Verizon store say they have been seeing phones come in that 3g or 4g just stops working and they have been replacing the sim card. Sure enough fixed the issue. Then they tried to tell me that the LTE app could be the cause, so I removed it and dialed the number to the phone menu.. they just looked at me. Then I asked if that is the case, why did they just tell me they have been seeing phones come in that have the same problem and the sim card fixes it, I bet those phones don't toggle the 4g and 3g... They shut up.. Even Verizon TS over the phone says they know about the app and its not the problem! Oh well, get to root again tonight..
been searching for 10+ hours and no luck or solution.
i was on gummycharged ep1f/ep1h rom and everything was working fine until today.
i don't know what triggered it, but my phone just restarted and then lost all signal.
after searching and looking at phone info, i found first line under baseband version shows "unknown".
tried flashing to every possible roms out there using odin and it would not bring the phone back to life.
funny thing is i have no problem w/ 4glte service, which allows me to surf and download but no voice service.....
do i have no choice but to go to verizon for replacement phone?
thank you.

yeah I'd take it into them, sounds like some hardware got fried.. however I'd probably try to flash a froyo rom for whatever good it'd do, if they somehow can check baseband and it shows GB your warranty is void and they will not fix or replace it
blazing through on my VZ Droid Charge 4G
found this over in the Galaxy s 9000 forum (wc8 posted it)
Mine now works fine
so what was the cause - still no idea
so what did help - rebooting the phone couple of times without the sim inside
heads up !
worth a try and not my fault if something blows up...
Begin minor rant:
Isnt it sad that we (everyone including devs and XDA as well as casual helpers like me) have to put that final line in there so they dont get blamed/flamed if things get f'd up?

Had the same problem with my Fascinate. After a flash I lost all 3G and phone capabilities. What I did was reset my phone line with the esn of an old phone I had lying around. Go to this thread. It will show you what you need to do.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051543. I took mine to Verizon, and also spent hours with tech support and, to no avail. This esn swap did the trick. Good luck.
did the stuff you were flashing include the radios? like this one?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1172182
or this thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1111486
yes, all the roms i flashed had full radio from ED1, ED2, EE4, EP1F
none worked....
i'll try to search and see if esn method works that someone mentioned above.
keeping my fingers crossed....
currently, phone is @ stock ee4 unrooted w/ no baseband for cdma radio.
if anyone else is having same problem, do not run esn swap!!!
it will cancel your unlimited data and there is no way to bring it back.
thank god i read it before i tried it....
phone still no go with unknown baseband.....
HELP?!?!? PLEASE?

i called Verizon and had them do it over the phone. In other words, they moved my line to a dummy ESN on their end and some random number to my phone and then switched it right back, all while my phone was off, so when my phone was turned back on it got re provisioned on their network, which fixed my 3G data issues......but i dont think this is the OP's solution. When i had that problem I had phone service, just intermittent or no 3g data is all

You won't lose your unlimited data unless you switch to an ESN that is not a smartphone. I have switched my line a couple times and still have unlimited.

well if you are stock ee4 unrooted I think you are golden. Take your phone to verizon and have them deal with it.

I am not sure abotu this (not saying it is wrong but I never tried) I say take the 20 minutes on the phone with VZW and let them do it...
UPDATE
took it to verizon store twice, got sim cards replaced twice at two different locations.
still no go, rep recommended me to contact replacement center.
talk to tech for and hour trying to figure it out,
the tech announced that my cdma radio is fried.....
so i asked when i'll get the replacement and he said sometime on tuesday.
and i asked if i could use my really old LG non-smart phone for time being and he said i'll loose my unlimited data and moved to 2gb tiered data plan...
so i guess i'll be out of service until tuesday....

Hey I believe ya, I am just in the better safe than sorry frame of mind when it comes to the unlimited data structure. It does make sense though since i did switch from the fascinate to the charge without losing it
they told me this will only work if you went from smart phone to another smart phone.
however, if you went to non smart phone and then smart phone, you'd lose your unlimited plan.
I'm surprised this couldn't be fixed with a software flash. I came from a Samsung Epic and this was a regular occurrence on at least one of the Gingerbread leaks. Happened to me at least once - used ODIN and reflashed the whole shebang (full TAR with modem) and got it back up and running.
i wish there was an easy fix like you said.
then i don't have to wait for them to send me replacement device and also saves me from hassle of reapplying invisible shield. the maximum protection kit is pain in the ass to apply.
i've flashed with every single rom+radio out there in many different order with both odin 1.3/1.7/1.8 and samsung pstlite.
i've also tried flashing radio only and still no luck.
My phone HATES my SIM CARD, First off i rooted my phone, its fully unlocked and has been just fine for over a month. I'm using FIDO but its an unlocked Rogers phone. (SGH-I727R model) and original FW and everything. made a couple of phone calls in the morning and the when i got home i noticed that my phone displayed "unregistured SIM" so i tried reloading sim card, reboot and so on over and over again. and it didnt work. so put the sim card in my 4year old phone, and it worked.
try calling fido aswell as rogers.. they said, sim card might be old and there is a conflict with the NEW phone. so i went to futureshop talked with the dude got the NEW sim card and tested it out with no success. again tried it with old phone, WORKS..
now you think maybe the phone might be locked somehow... NOPE. i even tried dude's sim card and he is on another network. (NOT rogers or fido) WORKED with his sim, proof my phone is totally unlocked to any carrier.
NEW SIM Card Doesnt work with my phone but worked perfectly with buddies SIM CARD on another carrier?!?!... lol
and now it shows "no service"
PLEASE HELP.
Update
i have just formatted, cleared cache and factory reset and it still says the same ****. no service... anyone help? i'm dead in the water here..
I had the same problem, I had to switch carriers then my phone started working properly, Honestly I think its the company...
Update
well, it looks like i hit rock bottom. i even installed the new ics rom and its still doesn't take my SIM card. I'm pissed. i need to dump this phone and get a working one. I can't switch over to rogers, I hate them. and when i go on vacation this phone will be a brick if i cant insert everyone elses sim cards around the world.
and i dont think its the company's fault. i have a feeling its because its rooted or something along those lines.
maybe i will wait for the new galaxy sIII and dump this ****. $$560 wasted. i feel soo stupid for getting this phone.
hi,
What have you used to unlock sgh-i727? I have one and need to unlock it so can switch to other provider then ATT.
when i bought the phone it came unlocked. you must goto a website and give them your imei # that is on your phone. and they will sned you a unlock code upto 2 hours later.. DONT try and guess the code. and you will have to pay a fee but it will be minimal. $3-10
Final UPDATE, i went to rogers and got the phone on a contract for $50 and now i think i will give this to my mother to use for pics and ****. i have not a clue what to do with this thing.
And now it works
How reliable is that, i went out and bought a second phone from rogers and after a couple of days of my old phone not working with any sim card, Now it works with both rogers and Fido. Now i am stuck in a 3yr contract and have 2 of these phones. anyways i will try and get rid of my stupid contract. its only been a couple of days and "buyers remorse" law states that you can get out of any contract within 15 days of when the contract was signed.
Same Here
Strange - I had the EXACT same thing happen to me as well. Funny thing is it happened the same day as your first post about this issue on Jan. 25. I am on FIDO as well and had a working, unlocked i727R I bought off eBay from Basatne Electronics.
It was unrooted and working perfectly for a month and a half. All of a sudden I got ‘no service’ and sometimes ‘unregistered sim’ when I rebooted. I tried 6 different sim cards from FIDO and Rogers that worked on other phones and same thing. I cleared cache and did a reset. Same thing. I brought it to FIDO and Rogers and tried their demo sim cards in it. Same thing.
Finally I called Samsung to sent it back to them for ‘repair’. They sent me a UPS label and I sent it to Service Absolut, Samsung’s repair subcontractor in Montreal. It was there for over a week now. Their communication is terrible – it just says ‘open’ or ‘close’ on Samsung’s tracking website, so I called Absolut themselves yesterday asking for the status/tracking number. They said they were going to ship it yesterday even though my repair ticket online said ‘close’ since last wednesday.
I find this really strange, especially since your phone seems to have done the same thing as mine right around the same time. I figure it was Rogers/Fido that messed up their network somehow. Two working Rogers sims didn’t work in it either. My sim card was working on my old blackberry still. My IMEI didn’t appear in any blocked IMEI lists I looked up.
I just got my phone back today 10 minutes ago and it works again. It says 'full software upgrade and reset' on the repair list I got back, although I didn't mod my phone in the first place. At least I had my backup blackberry. Still pisses me off – I spent hours trying to figure out what was wrong with it and I wiped all my apps when I did a reset, so I’ll have to load them all up again and set up my phone.
Just weird.
And Again...
Well, it seems it just happened again.
After a month and a week or two of working perfectly (same length of time as last time), my i727R now says 'No Service' again for some reason on FIDO network and won't connect to anything except through Wifi.
I didn't install any new software or change any settings when it happened.
It was working one minute, put it in my pocket and a couple minutes later it says 'No Service', even though I have always had service before in the area I am in right now.
Does anyone have a clue what can be causing this?
Network, Software (some kind of timer somewhere that would shut off connection), Malware?
This is driving me nuts - I don't want to have to send it back to Samsung again.
Last time Samsung said they reflashed the software when I sent it back.
I don't know why I would need to do that since it was working just fine and I wasn't messing around with any settings before it started saying 'No Service' - same thing happened last time.
Alright not too long ago, I called verizon to notify them about my travels to Japan, 2 weeks prior my trip (i got back less than 24 hours ago). They did some over the phone stuff, added that 100mb plan. And told me to dial *228, I've been warned about dialing *228 on 4G phones before... But this is a Verizon REP telling me this. So i did it, and i was supposed to dial it again when i reached Japan, to update my roaming with their cell towers.
I did so as well... thought little did i know the message i got when i was in japan said my phone did not work over there (didn't know it at the time had my friend translate the message for me days after i already dialed)
Long story short, I've noticed after my initial dial of *228, I somewhat noticed my phone never connected to 4G again. It bugged me, but i was still able to FORCE LTE Only in Phone Info. But when i had that setting in, i couldnt recieve or send calls, or texts... just blazing fast internet.
In my area since I live relatively close to Los Angeles 4G is pretty much everywhere here. What i dont understand why my phone hasn't connected to 4G ever since i called.

I'd pull the sim, reinsert and reboot. You may need to reactivate. Sounds like the rep you talked to was a complete waste of space.

I've done factory resets quite a few times already today, as well as the IMEI push/fix just in case... still to no luck

There's another command using the keypad you can use to factory reset your phone...i just can't remember it. Something like *#4342..etc. I remember seeing it posted on here somewhere but I would search for "factory reset" and see what you can come up with.
This is what people did when they flashed an AOSP rom and were unable to get 4G...it could likely work for you also. It's worth a shot!
Here is the thread and the command: Back up all your info because your phone will be wiped and make sure you are on a stock based TouchWiz rom...go into dialer and hit *2767*3855#. Allow it to reboot and hopefully you will have full use of your phone. If not, go and get yourself a new sim card at the local VZW.

There's another command using the keypad you can use to factory reset your phone...i just can't remember it. Something like *#4342..etc. I remember seeing it posted on here somewhere but I would search for "factory reset" and see what you can come up with.

Tried that twice during the IMEI push. Still to no avail. I'm going to assume the SIM card got bugged during the *228 process... And would probably need a new simcard. My dad also has the S3, and his connects to 4g just fine in my area... THe things i go through with this phone man... I prefer my bionic if the galaxy's camera wasnt so good.
Sorry about the phone woes but once you're up and running again you will see how this device runs circles around your Bionic.
Getting a new SIM card is easy. Verizon gives them away for free and you can just walk in there. Hopefully you get this taken care of.
