Constant Data loss - T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide

Hi, i hope someone can help me but im running a Mytouch 4G slide with Cyanogen Alpha 5 with s-on and everything works great and has been for the past 2 days since purchased and rooted it, Today however i have been having constant data loss. What happens is on my signal bar i can see the H come and go come and go come and go for about 5-10 seconds intervals, when it comes, it immediately goes away and then comes back after about 5-10 seconds. I tried to do a factory reset and after losing everything i hoped it would fix it but it only fixed it for about 5 minutes then it continued doing the same exact thing as before but i have great signal reception. If anyone has any clue on how to fix this or maybe get a new Radio that fixes it, i would be more than glad to turn S-OFF as it is currently S-on. Thank you and i really appreciate all the hard work and help!

I'm having the exact same problem and have been running CM9, Alpha 5, S-ON since a few days after it was released with no problems at all. I didn't notice it until I got to work since I have wireless at home but have not had data all day. I called T-Mobile and they're not experiencing any outages in my area (Philadelphia) so that's out of the question. The only changes that have been made to this phone have been making sure to keep my apps updated.
I know this isn't an answer to your problem but you're not the only one having it. Hopefully, someone can provide some insight.

Note that I've had the same data issues on CM9 Alpha5 with two different devices. I was able to replicate the intermittent data issue on my sister's mt4gs. Her's was s-on. Then I s-off'd her phone using revolutionary and still had the data issues.
I reflashed back to stock 1.63 and data worked fine. Then I used JuopunutBear to s-off and flashed CM9 Alpha5. Data has been consistent and flawless on both devices ever since.

Changing the APN setting to internet2.voicestream.com worked for me but I'm still curious as to why after a month of running CM9 A5 with no problems, the data just dropped on me today.

I think this is nation wide and not just a rom problem a couple people I've talked to have been having data/signal problems all different phones.

Not necessarily, i think its just the Mytouch 4G slide running the cyanogen.. Im running an HTC Amaze with revolution ICS 3.6 sense s-on for over a month now and it has worked great no problems whatsoever... as for this Mytouch 4G slide, i still cannot get this problem fixed, they phone gets data back at times and then the problem hits it back just a couple hours later and it is very frustrating. I have also tried to fix it by doing the whole root process again and that only fixed it for 24 hours till the next day so thats out of the question as to answer post #2. I guess i will just have to wait and see for a new cyanogen update to come out for the Mytouch 4G slide.

GPS Is Completely Dead, And I'm far from a rookie, Options Exhausted

I've been using coredroid for a couple months now. GPS worked great all the way up to V6.5. Even used 6.0 for a week or so and it worked great. I've used stock radio with every ROM and never had a problem. I installed coredroid 6.5 and the GPS is dead as a door nail. Gps Status, and GPS Test Plus won't even find a single satellite after 5 minutes standing in my yard with no obstructions. Not a single satellite found, let alone a lock. So I flashed the radio Coredroid recommends for V6.5 and no go. I also tried faster fix with no luck. I then wiped cache partition, formatted data, cache, and system, followed by a dalvik cache wipe, reinstalled coredroid v6.0 which it was working on yesterday, and same thing, doesn't find a single satellite. So I then tried optimized stock rooted which it also worked on that ROM in the past, and now it doesn't. I've done complete wipes between roms, and tried testing GPS BEFORE restoring my titanium backup. Nothing I do seems to work. Can't find one single satellite in clear view of the sky. So Now I'm back to CoreDroid V6.5 since it's not ROM related. Any Ideas?
Try running the RUU to complete stock through the exe file. Not rooted stock, but original shipping stock.

Try re flashing your radio a couple of times in a row I had it happen to me i got no sats too. I thank I did it like 3 or 4 times workes grate now 8 sats in 10 sec. Hope this helps.
O yea i am on the new att radio 12.39a.60.19x_26.06.06.30_M ROM is Di11is 2.0.1
I'm on my second Inspire due to the very some issue you describe. If youre out of the 30 buyers remorse, call ATT's warranty dept @ 800-801-1101 and have them get a replacement on the way. In the mean time, get all your stuff together to return your to stock and root the replacement.

Well, gps still not working. I got this phone on release day in feburary. I did however solve the problem, I went and got Samsung infuse, however I want to get gps working on inspire so I can sell it. Maybe the chip went bad. I went back to stock using the RUU exe method and nothing. This is definitely a hardware failure. Maybe I flashed it to death lol

I understand the issue, my problem is I've never had a issue in the 3 months I've had it. Flashed 20 Roms at least, gps worked great on all of them, but now all of a sudden I get the issue.

Yeah the gps is kinda touchy with this phone. I dorked my gps up a while back and nothing fixed it either. Reflashed the ruu,radios,rerooted and every other maddening thing you can think of. I actually gave up and moved on.Then one day after messing around in the build prop(completely unrelated to the gps) my gps came back up after the 40th reboot in a row. Since then its been fine, really weird.
BTW how you do like the infuse? A friend of mine had to ditch the inspire because the bluetooth would cut out once he put the phone in his pocket, went through 2 phones and headsets.

infuse is like a fancy captivate only way smoother. GPS got 11 satellites in under 25 seconds on first try out off the box. Inspire mobile data speeds were always 3.5 down, the infuse is getting 7 on average. Inspire didn't have 2100mhz band, infuse does. Not sure if that matters. But I like it. Rooted it in under 3 minutes. Just one click and superuser appeared.

New Radio Coming Soon!

Per VZW:
http://support.verizonwireless.com/pdf/system_update/thunderbolt.pdf
Good to know our trusty old TB's still getting some love from VZW.
Looking forward to the new radio's and the bug fixes.
Let's hope its out in the very near future, and that our superb (remaining) ROM masters update their works.
Nice! Gives me hope for an ICS update....
jv
funny thing is, the tbolt was the flagship 4g device not to long ago. With the latest rom releases from liquid such as nonsense this thing will last me until next november when my upgrade is due and hopefully there will be some insane phones at that time. most recent radio for me at least has been stellar, now I can only hope that the new radios provide even better results.
Just got the update on stock tv. Seems a little smoother moving from screen to screen. I like so far.

My moms phone is s-off rooted but I odn't think i ever changed anything else, and I used revolutionary.
I'm being offered the new thunderbolt update but I also want to put her phone on cm7
I just wasn't sure if i allow it to upgrade without restoring to s-off I'll have a problem.
I don't think I changed anything but the main recovery screen screen says
Revolutionary
mecha XD Ship S-off
Hboot-6.04.1002
MICROP-/
Radio 1.48.00.0906w_1
eMMC-Boot
Should I allow update since it will update radio, and then turn over to CM7 or do you think I'll have some issues with it if I don't restore to original s-on and then go through revolutionary again and root.
Maybe I'll just wait for an RUU to pop up or the radio file to come online and then switch to cm-7.
What do you guys think?
just wait man, one of the benefits of rooting is never having to take otas, it'll be here soon for the flashing
New update received this afternoon (605.9)
Just received the latest update today on stock TB. Seems to run ok (so far), but the persistent voice mail icon and notification problem is back. This was a problem prior to last update. The icon and notification displays that you have a voice mail even though you don't and no way to get rid of them that I know of. Kind of a downer. Anyone else seeing this?

new radio
I flashed it yesterday, I can't say the speeds are any better but the transition between 3G and 4G is much better, I was in and out of 4G coverage last evening 4 or 5 times and it transitioned much better and before I would be sitting at my desk and look at my phone and it would be 4G then 3G and I would have to go to settings and refresh my network to get it back to 4G but since the new radio I have not had that issue. I can say that the battery seems to be lasting longer not having to look for signal near as much. I am very pleased.

Data connection issues.

Hi. I was using my Sensation last night, went to bed and woke up the next day only to find that my 4G connection wasn't working! The signal bars were white and the icon (currently an H) is flashing. What does this mean? How can I fix it? I can only use Wifi at the moment, and I DO NOT pay an extra $10/mo to deal with this! How can I fix this? I've checked my data settings, rebooted my phone, scanned fir viruses, but can't figure it out!

this happened to me the other day, even in 3G/4G mode my data would never connect and E would just keep flashing over and over again (in like 10 sec. intervals) thought it was a ROM problem so I restored a backup and sure enough, the problem was still happening. I could still make calls and send texts fine tho. its not happening to me anymore, but I found it weird. could it possibly be T-Mobile messing with their towers or something in preparation for LTE?
Well, I'm not sure what caused this very same issue for me a couple days ago. I can say that it ONLY effected my AOSP (CM9) rom, but my Sense rom was unphased. It seems to be a common recent complaint in the OpenSensation thread...
I've since then done a fresh install of CM9 RC1 with the addition of Tamcore's kernel. Although I'm not experiencing the described symptom any longer, I can say that my data speeds are far from exceptional. I'm not sure what is going on, but it does seem to be carrier related.
I experienced the same 1 day after flashing CM9 RC1. I re-flashed the Virtuous Inq. ROM I was using previously and the problem went away
My phone went back to normal later on. I think you were right mulletcutter, they might have been servicing it.

Same data connectivity issue
I have two sensations, both shows similar data connectivity issue on TMobile. Data signal jump to connected and not connected for couple hours, and eventually problem will go away. I have both phones rooted running either CM9 or Kang. So far I have tried couple following things but no solutions. I believe its HTC Sensation hardware issue:
1. Flickering so far seen usually after night long charge in the morning. It will last couple hours, some time days.
2. Changing/reflashing ROMs did not help at all and saw same issue continued.
3. One of my friend has Sensation and he also has seen same issue.
4. Some time going into Phone application(Dialer) and then Settings/Advance settings and come back without doing anything helps but not always.
Please post here is you have temporary/permanent solution or even know the root cause of this data connectivity issue.
Also thinking to call Tmobile to get some kind of help but not expecting much as I bought phones more than year ago but less than 2 years. I don't want to give any more commitment/agreement with Tmobile as planning to move to value plans to save some money. If Tmobile does not help, thinking to try American Express to conver it under extentended warranty as I paid by AMEX credit card.
Thanks
Have you tried the application get ril? I was having some issues myself, I'm also T-Mobile. I tried get ril and found out my radio and ril we're not matching. The application suggested a ril for download and once I did that I went from one bar of connection to five bars of connection on H. It made a big difference for me. Perhaps it could also help you? You can download get ril from the market. It sure won't hurt to try. Best of luck.

Its a defect in the basic aosp framework. There is nothing you can do to fix it. There is also nothing your usage did to start it.
The good news is that it should disappear on its on after a few hours.
Check my threads started history. You will find a thread near the top of that list showing almost all there is to know about this issue. I think my thread might be linked in the first 2 posts of the cm10 faq thread too.

It was found that the fast dormancy feature is not compatible with all network carriers.
Therefore, fix for that (only for ROOTed phones) is available using a change to the build.prop file.
The needed change is detailed here:
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=1
ro.ril.fast.dormancy.rule=1 change to =0
I have just spend 2 hours on phone coping first HTC and T-Mobile.
In HTC they told me there is issue with towers in my area.
I call T-Mobile and after 1 hour 30 min they figure it out they have technical issue with towers I ask why my wife's wildfire S is doing great "my personal technician" it depends on witch tower, witch channel and finally witch device so hopefully they will fix floating signal in 72 hours and that's will close m y case. If not HTC this time will not get any reason to denide warranty and will send me new phone

I'm also having this problem.
Just randomly the phone will just disconnect from the network. Takes it about a few minutes (1 to 5 minutes) then it suddenly reconnects.
I've heard changing the micro-sim was a fix but that didnt work for me. I thought maybe it was a ROM issue but I've been rooted for about 2 months now (the issue started happening a day later).
Has anyone actually tried the build.prop fix?
Well after yesterday phonecalls TO HTC and t mobile situation gets a lot better.

I think i read that's a prob with the US Tmo variant. Radio. Supposed to be fixed with latest RUU 1.84. If not, go bug HTC about it. Most likely their crap.
You could also try to flash the latest Radio from EU RUU 1.78 (0.16.31501S.17_2_10.23.31501S.10L) which is one generation ahead.
Check my MediaFire folder. Got the zip's in there. untested though. need be brave for this. And u'll need a custom recovery. and be unlocked of course.

I've also noticed it's gotten better so something is changing somewhere. But still the problem persists.
FWIW, I've rooted every device I've had since the G1 (6 devices[G1, N1, G2, MT4G, MT4GS and 1S]) and never had any issue initiating a warranty exchange or getting warranty service.

It flashed alright with success message but the radio didn't change. The chip wouldn't accept the write. Probably S-OFF required.
I've spent some two hours waiting at the hospital today and had enough time to check out the connection under bad signal conditions.
I must say, the HOS radio of the latest EU ruu is having severe problems with keeping the connection alive. Even my HD2 with gingerbread was a lot better. This phone suxx with bad signal. And this is not in the US where this problem has mostly been reported. This is in Germany.

It happens to me too sometimes. I just flashed the latest European radio and it worked fine for me.
I'm having the same issue. I've tried three different radios and several different roms and now i'm back to stock by using a restore I had before going crazy on my phone with the available roms... It seems that the stock rom drops signal as well. It just elegantly drops the connection and then reconnects whereas all the custom roms I've tried don't. Not sure what to do... I mostly purchased the One S for its hardware.
These are the radio's I've tried and they all have much of the same problem on my phone.

After hours with t-mobile personal technician they figure out they will replace my phone. Phone was bought on craig's list - something like e bay but free - and what's interesting T-Mobile will exchange for new one. We will see what's the story with new one

I`m having signal issues, as well. Whereas my wife`s phone has very good connection whatever the places we`ve been to, mine was struggling. And strange ups and downs with full and suddenly no connection at all within same area. I tried several ROMs and flashed the latest radio but still suffers. Regardless I`m in an area with full signal, when I switch to 3G then the signal instantly drops some bars. Very annoying....
Hi @ll. To me subject is over. Im using new replacement phone for 3 days and none of previous problems appear. I have no clue what was a problem. HTC blame t-mobile and t-mobile blame HTC. After all I get replacement device and 3 days phone work without any problem. Battery life is now much better because phone is not looking for signal. Still signal is floating but it is not going under 2 bars and device is all the time login in network.
So good luck to everybody. Greetings.

So even if I flash the stock ROM and put a custom ROM (like CM9 for example), this problem will not be fixed ??!! Even if I update the radio ?

Sensation Data Issues Containment Thread

Ive been having problems with my data for a while. My conclusion is its not any roms or radios ive used, its the phone. T-mobile thinks the same thing. After seeing bruce's CM10 thread clogged up with posts about it i figured we could discuss it here.
A little more explanation would help. Problems with data is vague. Specifically, what about your data connection is considered a problem ie is it not connecting? Is it disconnecting? Do you only get 3G or 4G
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda app-developers app
I used to have data issues all the time with CM9 & CM10. Sometimes reflashing the ROM would help, but it got to the point where I had to flash a Sense ROM to get my data working and then flash CM again. That would work for a few days, but then my data would start cutting in and out again, usually after turning off WiFi. I finally formatted my SD card and have been free of data issues for over a week now.
It seems that perhaps some file or other from Sense ROMs that is left on the SD card is causing a conflict with AOSP and/or T-Mobile's APNs.

still getting the data hanging issues.
the service is shown with signal flashing h then it will go off and drop its connection why =[!!!
it works when i flash a sense rom but not bruce's rom!
I just did a quick format. I forget to mention it in my previous post, but I also changed my radio and ril from the latest ones to the official T-Mobile ones - 11.69A.3504.00U_11.23.3504.07_M2 and 4.0.0024HMQ.

what was your problem with your service?
and could you provide those links please?
threw the OP up this morning before an interview just to get people to shut up in bruce's thread about it. most people with issues that sound similar to mine dont seem as bad. basically, i just have terrible service. even in places where i shouldnt. my network when i get to either 3g or H just bounces between the two. even the one time i actually got full bars of 3g it just kept bouncing to H and then bouncing back. if i have two bars of edge in my livingroom and try to send a text, itll just drop the service completely. if someone makes a call to me and im on 2 bars or less of any network it will just drop the network completely. happened once i moved from vegas to phoenix, flashed every ril/radio combination i could find. every one is the same. talked to other users in close proximity to me with a sensation and they said they get great service everywhere. happens on every rom as well. messed with APN settings, went to the store and got a new sim card. everything. Like i said, im certain my issues are worse than everyone elses but itd be interesting to see what different groups of people are experiencing with data issues to see if its something with our phones.
BTW - tmo at the store said "buy a new phone" AWESOME customer service i must say.

After a few days, my data would just stop working. I would have 3 or 4 bars but the 4g or 3g icon would appear for a second and then disappear over and over.
I found the radio and ril in this thread

I had this exact same problem on cm9. I've had to take refuge in viper's sense 4 rom until I could figure out what caused it. I was able to fix it once before by flashing a combo of roms and radios. Then it happened again and just stayed on viper as it doesn't reoccur on a sense rom.
Note: This happened to me before cm10 was even developed. I was running AOKP at the time. It also happened on a backup that was 2 weeks old before the problem first happened so its not entirely rom related.

this is what im saying. no combination of flashing anything fixes mine so just be glad you guys can still fix yours i guess. the tmo guy was like "sometimes things just break... so you should sign up for a new contract and buy a new phone" oh, and surprise, i had a 12 month warranty on the phone of course. goes bad at 12.5 months

So this sounds just like my issue. I've been running on BADOSP's ROM which is based on AOKP M6 for the past week or more with zero issues with data connectivity. Never a problem getting 3G/H where I was supposed to. I flashed CM9 last night to check it out and decided against it and reverted to my backup. I was running fine through the night on my backup but then set it in airport mode last night, came out of it and flashed a basic AOKP install for fun this morning. After that I can't get a data connection to stick on any AOSP type ROM. Not in CM9, not in AOKP, I've cleared/formated EVERYTHING went to backups of systems that used to work and now don't, nothing. Finally, I had a nandroid from Vipers Sense4 rom as well and it was basically exactly the same - seeking refuge for a working system in the mean time.
Seems no matter what now I cannot make an AOSP ROM work but I'm at least functional in a Sense 4 ROM. I would love to know what happened if anybody figures it out.

So in case anybody else finds this. I was having no problems in sense based roms it seems and only AOSP roms fail to establish a data connection. I had read a few posts in different places about wiping the SD Card but I didn't want to do that for nothing. So I restored a nandroid of an AOKP ROM and then selected to power off from EXT4 instead of rebooting. I then popped out my SD Card and powered on. It took a minute for the data to establish but it worked. I put the SD Card back in and it kept working. I have rebooted since then and it STILL works. I'm not sure what prompts the problem but ultimately this solved it for me. Been running 24 hours now with no issues. Hope this helps somebody else.

Unfortunately, this worked for a day and a half. This morning it suddenly started doing what it was doing again. Haven't had any time to troubleshoot or try anything as I'm about to be traveling so I had to revert to Viper's Sense ROM again.
I'm also having the same problem. It just started a couple of days ago when I was running CM9. I figured a wipe and flash would fix it. I am now on CM10 and still having the same problem. Anyone have a solution?
