Have you checked your APN settings? If you aren't on Tmobile's network, you may have to add a new APN in Settings-Wireless-Mobile Networks

Use internet2.voicestream.com as your apn. I can't tell you the MMS settings, as that's a secret. But that apn is the true apn tmobile gives to there employees for unlimited data, with a better connection.

What are your APN settings! CM9 comes with 4/5 different apn settings. Try all of them, if not use my apn from above. I'm willing to help if you post the right info. Just saying what roms your on isn't a lot of help. Its a start, but we need much more info to get to the root.

How about on WiFi? Did you flash the CM9 boot.img when you reverted back?

I had the same exact problem. Data on CM9 and MikMIUI was intermittent, if at all. After trying just about everything to fix data on ICS, I decided to re-flash to COMPLETE stock and go from there. Initially, I used Revolutionary to S-OFF my phone and I now suspect something in Rev S-OFF was causing the data issues. This is what I did:
1. Re-locked bootloader
2. Used Blue's guide to go back to S-ON and complete stock
3. Updated to 1.63 via OTA
4. Unlocked bootloader with HTCDev
5. Flashed CWM 5.0.2.7 and Superuser
6. Used JuopunutBear to S-OFF
7. Flashed CM9
This process took awhile but I've been running CM9 Alpha 5 for the past few days and data has been solid, no issues at all. I guess JuonpunutBear>Revolutionary

Kinda sounds like there could be something to that. And I'm just spitballin this but I've never had any of these issues with data that everyone else is having, or has had (on any ROM I've ever flashed). I bought my phone S-ON and used Juopunutbear for S-OFF. Never before, or since then have i had data issues. Can anyone else attest to that who used Revolutionary to get S-OFF vs Juopuntutbear as far as data issues go?
And anyone else who knows more on the subject, is that a possibility?

For the wire trick, I used a 1/2 foot of old coaxial cable from the middle of the cable and stripped off a 1/2 inch of each end's protective layer. Seemed easier and more efficient than using an ethernet cable

i just did it and used a paperclip worked fine going to try miui now will let you know

data works fine thanks a million for input had something to do with S-on idk seems strange..... flashing the boot.img so many times must cause a bug ...... doesn't matter now all is good

try this!
Sorry, I didn't think to post here.
If it happens again, try going into a basement or elevator where you know your phone will drop connection and begin searching for network. I mean absolutely no signal. It works for me, see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28881240

Flash a ROM, lose 3G? Help please.

I'm having an issue changing ROMs. I was originally a CM user, but I've been running Evervolv for the last few months. I decided to flash CM again yesterday. Everything seemed to work fine for a bit, until I turned off the wifi and realized I wasn't getting a 3G signal.
I tried rebooting, reflashing, messing with the settings for quite awhile and nothing seemed to help. Eventually I decided to wipe again and flash a Sense ROM. I STILL could not get a 3G signal. After much experimenting I wiped again and flashed Evervolv back onto the phone. Much to my dismay, no 3G.
Finally I restored my nandroid backup I made before I loaded CM and surprisingly everything works just fine again and the 3G is back to normal. Any ideas what I am doing wrong? I'm not a noob at flashing ROMs, I've had a few different ones on the Shift and tried many on the Hero before that, but I must be making a silly mistake somewhere.
If anyone has any ideas or can point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it, thanks!
Unsure but evervovle had messed up my phone to when I first got my phone, i had to RUU just to reset... So I'm gonna say unless someone else offers a viable option, hit the 2.2 RUU

Thanks thronnos. If no one else seems to know the cause of this I'll give that a shot.
You said you nand back and now 3G is working.. So if you flash a fresh ROM now does 3G continue working or only while using the nand??
I tried to flash another ROM this morning, 3G still didn't work. Had to nand back again to get it to work.

Cm9 Flashing Steps

I'm opening this so someone can probably be so kind as to write the CLEANEST was/steps to flash cm9 I'm sure many of want to try it, I would have wrote them myself but I don't know them, and I have to get ready for orientation with my new job

jt1134 said:
Here's a preview build now that my source tree is mostly sorted out: http://www.mediafire.com/?1nhagihfoqqpkf3
To flash, you must first flash this recovery: http://www.mediafire.com/?2000k5y512spft4
Then boot into recovery, wipe data/cache, go to mounts and storage and format system, then flash the rom. Gapps are here: http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120317-signed.zip . You'll probably have to mount system manually under mounts and storage before flashing gapps.
I've only tested this using gingerbread bootloaders, no idea if it works using froyo bootloaders. If you don't want to deal with the caveats of gb bootloaders, then well, fix it yourself.
what works:
radio (calls/sms/data)
touchscreen
audio
wifi
sensors
hw acceleration
software and hardware video decoding
data usage monitor (for wifi at least)
what doesn't work:
camera/camcorder
bluetooth
anything else is either broken or completely untested.

I think you're right, the first time I flashed i had the rainbow and i was on froyo bootloaders, after restore to GB it came up fine.

Sprint's been doing something to the tower closest to my house and I've been permaroamig at my house going on 3 weeks now. Sprint told me it might be a while before they fix the problem. I've been missing calls and they only go through when I force my phone to roam.

Before updating your radios do this:
1) Update profile, reboot phone.
2) Update PRL, reboot phone.
3) If you are not using cellular radio 1.08.01.0111 here is the link:

If your talking about the ones on THIS thread. There is a video in the OP on how to. But if you don't have time, or don't want watch ( although I would suggest you do ) , there are written instructions in the OP. It's always a good idea to read the OP a least once, just in case.

Tweaked 3 Beta 2

Hi all,
Ive been looking at this site for some time and have been rooting and romming my charge regulary. Now that FP5 is out I wanted to try Tweaked 3.0 beat 2. I got the file from IRC. I stocked my phone took both OTA's, ffashed cwm 0302, went straight to cwm wiped cash, davlik , did factory data reset and installed the cwm file of the beta.. I get stuck at the samsung loader indefinitely. To get my phone back up and running i flashed the tweaked vanilla 2.2 to keep the new kernal and modems from FP5. THis has my phone up and running. I've read of others running the the beta with no issue. I cannot find on the site instructions to get it running. If someoone could help i would appreciate it.
Thanks.

Sorry I can't be much help to you but I just wanted to inform you that dwither plans on releasing 3.0 very soon. Perhaps just wait for the final release?
Go ahead and and repeat
What you did (only need to do a factory reset)
Install 3.0 bete2.
It takes a little while to boot...
But if it doesn't either pull battery or hold volume up and power at the same time
(30 seconds) this will reboot phone...
See if that works..
Also when in recovery after you flash 3.0 mount everything again and run fix permission ..

Also - make sure you mount /system before flashing
When I flashed it I had to wipe data. Sucks, but that's the nature of the beast.

[Q] Need Advice Loading [ROM][ICS 4.0.4]Genesis - Stable Build1 - CM9/AOKP Hybrid

Hello,
This is my first post here so go easy
I am trying to install [ROM][ICS 4.0.4]Genesis - Stable Build1 - CM9/AOKP Hybrid on LG P999 with no success. I rooted using super one click and made a backup. I flashed 5.0.2.0 to the device and tried loading Mr. Apocalypse's build following every instruction to the letter. The install appears to work fine allowing me to choose options and I get to the reboot prompt fine. I answered the baseband question and opted for the harsh kernel.
After reboot I get the white LG logo then the display dims and there are light leaks of varying degree but nothing after that. I waited about 45 minutes the first time and have waited up to an hour with nothing. I have tried [ROM][CM9][JUL13-Build80] Domination with similar results. I get to the reaper kernel image after reboot and that's as far as it goes. I followed all the instructions to the letter and I have no idea what is wrong.
Anyone that has a suggestion, other than buying a better phone, please let me know. Is there another method I can try?
Thanks in advance.
With Genesis, install it with the stock kernel, then after the first boot load harsh separately. Some phones get a boot loop with harsh in Aroma

Yes, I used the command prompt on my PC to load the NVFlash image. From what I have learned reading that is the only way it will work correctly.
It is currently loading after the initial reboot and at the LG logo with the blue streak, which is encouraging.

It is currently loading after the initial reboot and at the LG logo with the blue streak, which is encouraging.

Ok, that is good that you used nvflash to get CWM on your phone, that definitely wasn't the problem. Like he said earlier, could've been the kernel.

Still on the LG splash with blue, I am now considering dancing around the device wearing a tinfoil hat and a chickenfoot necklace... It would be incredibly cool if there was a way to pull a logfile after install or see one while the install is happening.
How long should this normally take? Almost 1 hr now..

Hahahaha, I almost laughed out loud at that. Umm, have you tried just a basic rom, like CM7? Just to compare if it works or something to see if it'll flash correctly and not your phone, and it might be a bad download for genesis. Just to be sure, it is indeed a P999?

I have a GB 2.3.3 on it now that loaded no problem. I tried that two days ago after several failed attempts. I am thinking its something here though because I couldn't get the ICS Domination ROM to work on it either. The GB ROM worked great after I flashed a new baseband to it. I had the static problem before that. It just doesn't want to cooperate with ICS. And the SD card is empty as well, I wanted to make sure there was enough room for a swap file.
I pulled the battery and it boots to the second LG logo and that's where it stays. I suppose both of the ROMs I tried could have been bad downloads, but idk., this has me flummoxed beyond belief. - and yes, it is a P999 (G2x) I bought about a year ago at a t-mobile store. I think it's time for a burial at sea for this thing!
There's always a fix. Possibly a bad download. You could try another CWM, the touch one, because I know a kernel doesn't flash on the touch one, but possibly those roms might flash on a touch recovery. Idk, I'm just babbling here.

Naw, not babble... I call it thinking with the keyboard still in gear. I will try the touch CWM idea, and keep plugging away. There IS a fix, I just haven't tripped over it yet. Thanks again!
I will post an update when I have some more data to spew.

Yeah, no problem, I just wish I could think a little better, its late on a school night, so my brain is mush, haha. Well, if you still need help, keep looking for answers and ask here, I'll help, and so will others!

Thanks again, and I will not give up on this, I am way more stubborn than that. I just flashed CWM v5.8.1.3 and restoring. I am going to try to load yet another variation of ICS and report the outcome. If nothing else, I do like this touch image I just loaded!
Have you tried doing a wipe before installing a rom? I've had times where known good roms won't boot just because I didn't wipe before installing it. If your gonna give this method a go try using this to wipe it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1854850
Success!
Thanks for all the advice, you guys rock!
I flashed the CWM touch and downloaded AOPK Milestone 6 4.0.4 just to see if it would load. I did the same procedure as I have with all the others and it worked. I guess it was the CWM version? IDK, Going to try to go back to Genesis tomorrow. Thanks again to each of you for all of your help and advice.
Good deal. I've been using CWM touch ever since it showed up in the forums for our phone, and I've never had a problem flashing anything

3G - 4G troubles?
I like it so far, much better than the older version I was using. I noticed this morning that I don't get any signal other than wifi. It looks like some people that did not opt for wifi were able to get signal after reinstalling with that option chosen. I did add the wifi initially, but no signal at all for data thus far. I didn't see any settings that I missed, the battery saver data stuff is unchecked and there aren't any others I could find. I am going to reinstall and hope it takes care of it.
A quick wipe and reload fixed it! :good:
