I have been running the 7/19 d2vzw CM9 build for a few days now and it has been running flawlessly. Yesterday I took a flight and used airplane mode no problem and was able to reconnect to the network, 4G worked perfect in the Orlando area.
Today I had a meeting in a room that has terrible reception (used to be an RF lab that was converted to a conference room). I used the Quicker app from the play store and toggled mobile data for most of the morning. Upon trying to toggle mobile data back on using the same app at lunch, I had little to no connectivity and then zero connectivity shortly thereafter. I tried using the Phone Info app, but that did not help either.
I made a backup of using EZ Recovery and then tried the 7/31 build of CM10, to no avail, still no connectivity. So I recovered back to my CM9 build with no connectivity either.
Does anyone have any advice on the topic?

Hello all. It seems as though I've come across a pretty serious issue with my Dash 3G. I have been using Ookba's 3VOLUTION ROMs for some time now and over the weekend, my phone suddenly stopped being able to make/receive any calls. I re-flashed the phone to the latest 3VOLUTION ROM (04/10/10 build) and it hasn't fixed the issue. I've put the SIM into another phone and it works perfectly, so I know it's not a bad SIM card. I don't know of any software settings that can persist like this (after a ROM flash). Furthermore, why it happened suddenly is totally beyond me. Does anyone have any suggestions I can try? This is terrible timing as I just had a job interview and I need to keep my "ears open" for a possible callback.
Thanks guys!
Bump - anyone have any suggestions?
I have the same problem. I switched from my personal SIM to my work SIM (another provider) and now it looses the service contact after a few minutes.
I realized this happens when I have the data connection on and the GPS on at the same time. This happened to me the first few days with the original ROM too when I first got the phone. So when I use google maps or evernote with gps, the phone service shuts down. Weird.
Mine is the Ozone by VZW (CDMA) but after it was flashed to the 3VO ROM on WM6.5, I got errors on the GSM side when using the T-Mo prepaid Sim, data connection was turning itself off so I couldn't even access T-zone (which was working just fine earlier, already unlocked & running 6.5)
Took me a while to check, goggle & search - realized that some of the GRPRS & Proxy settings were locked by default to the VZW embedded Sim, and had to go into Connections & under Advanced (Menu - Right Soft Key)
to change it. Sort of tricky since the wap, mms & other settings were all set properly but it was easy once I changed it to T-Mo's proxy & WAP names as created. Same for using AT&T's MEdiaNet, as otherwise, as soon as the GSM network was found, data connection was turned off.
Take a look at yours and check the various Menus & Settings screen to see if it might've been reset to default, etc. etc.
Anyone Figure This Out?
Just happened to me this weekend (T-Mo Dash 3G). Simply stopped connecting to the network for voice or data. Worked fine on Saturday but dead Tuesday morning. Also running 3VOlution ROM. I called T-Mobile and we played with network settings, etc. but no luck. Tried a hard reset and that was no help.
Reset and rebooted countless times after changing any setting I could think of. Hopefully someone has figured this out or it looks like I'll be buying a new phone tonight.
Bad SIM ...

Was a bad SIM. I swapped mine for my wife's and the no signal followed my SIM. Dropped by T-Mobile this morning on the way to work and they gave me a new one free, no questions asked. Phone's back to normal.
Hello all,
Lately (meaning, the last couple of days -- perhaps 3 or 4), my phone has been unable to get a Verizon data network connection for a certain amount of time (4G or 3G). WiFi works fine. However, anything else doesn't work, say, for a few minutes, or a hour or so. Sometimes, a reboot will fix the problem, but sometimes it won't.
The odd thing is, the "4G-LTE" icon is displayed and shows activity (up and down arrows blinking), yet I can't browse the web, update the weather, update Facebook, check email, etc., etc.
Does anyone have any ideas? Running BAMF 1.3.2. I am in the middle of NYC (plenty of 4G service). Yes, Mobile Network is enabled in the Settings. Tried a battery pull as described above AND a SIM card pull. Still no fix.
I had a similar problem a few days after I got my Thunderbolt. I was still on stock yet. I ended up going to the Verizon store and they did a hard reset to fix it. It sucked because I lost all my data but since it was new I didn't have much on it. If you back up everything with Titanium Backup it shouldn't be too bad tho, factory reset is under "SD card and storage" in the settings menu.

There have been many problems with the TB and data/network problems as of late. I believe it to be because of this new 4G rollout that is coming Thursday, plus the fact we will be seeing an OTA quite soon they are propbably preparing the network for that, thus giving all of us all these weird problems that we have been having.
(everything above is just rumor and based on my 100% factual opinions )

You are describing the same problem I'm having and I also live in NYC. But, I have no problems getting data when I force the phone into 3G mode only.
I notice the data connection problem even though the 4G symbol is up when I don't have cell reception for a while...like being underground while on the subway.
Turning the phone off and on or rebooting seems to fix the issue. I'm thinking the phone has handoff issues with whatever tower is near by.
Anywho, I did the "data fix" by changing the EVDO setting from eHRPD to Rev. A. I dunno if that'll do anything.
I just updated my Atrix 2 to the official OTA ICS 4.0.4 and after it took all day for my system to catch up with the new OS, My data is not working. No internet connective, UNless I'm on wifi. I have never had a problem before until I updated. I use Easy Batter Saver (app) and I reset the mobile network. That didn't work. I tried enabling data through the settings. That DID NOT WORK. I went to the settings --> about phone --> status and the only irregularities I noticed were
Mobile Network State- Disconnected
Sim ID- Not Available
- idk how to take the screenshot.
Any Ideas?
--- Found the answer!
It took a while to figure it out but this was the answer if anyone else is having the problem, It seems that the APN were deleted and the one that remained on mine after the update did not work for data connectivity. This is it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576199
I used the ATT phone and it worked fine and if you cannot receive MMS make sure to use both of them.
ALSO heres another link for more APNs

ICS data Lost
i lost the data connecion suddendly one day ago, this was working good. i restarted in recovery mode and did a wipe data/cache then add the apn's and now is workng again.
same here,i can not connect to 3G mobile data unless i change to airplane mode (after enabling mobile data and change to 3G network) and then to air plane mode to off.
or to restarting mobile after enabling mobile data and change to 3G network.
i tried 4 ICS radio images,but the same issue !!
i tried stock GB rom, same issue,but i tried another provider SIM with no issues, so , this was related to my provider network.
On certain ROMs, such as Cataclysm, my data signal goes away after disconnecting from the WiFi. But this has been happening on several other ROMs, too, and I can't seem to find the reason behind it. In case it matters, I'm using my phone on Sprint, data works fine with the stock ROM, and problem starting occurring more often after the 4.4.1 update. Any suggestions?

What you described looks similar to my problem.
I’ve been flashing 4.4 and then 4.4.1 ROMs on my Nexus 5 since I’ve got it early November, but I have not updated bootloader and radio up until yesterday. This week being on Slim 4.4.2 beta 1.5 I couldn’t connect to mobile data even though I had 4 bars and it was showing 3G or H (no LTE here yet, at least for me). GPS was fixing my location on Google maps, but navigation was not able to recalculate the route and was not moving my position along the way. Only when I switched from navigation to map, it was showing me as moving accordingly. Maps also couldn’t search for the address I was looking for. Now I realize it was a data connection problem.
So I thought it’s because I’m using 4.4.2 ROM on 4.4 bootloader and radio. Yesterday I downloaded Google 4.4.2 factory image and fastboot flashed all (efrant, your guide is irreplaceable!), formatted cache, did a factory reset and all. I wanted to have 100% factory state device. What a surprise today morning, when I realized I have no mobile data. Orange 4 bars signal with 3G or H. No internet though. Rebooted – the same: max signal, no internet. I turned Airplane mode on and off. Signal is back and I have internet, but bars still stay orange. So I rebooted. No internet on full 4 orange bars. Airplane mode switch on and off – mobile data regained, yet still orange.
When I reached the office I turned on WiFi. Got strong WiFi connection, bars went white, both WiFi bars and mobile bars (in Quick Settings). I switched off WiFi – mobile data is not reconnecting, staying orange, showing 3G or H. Sometimes it’s coming back after few seconds, sometimes it requires switching Airplane mode on and off to bring it back.
WTHell?
I was never putting much attention to mobile data because at home and in office I’m on WiFi, and while driving I’m listening to audiobooks so I don’t see what’s going on with mobile data. Sometimes I take a train, and then I’m browsing xda – I don’t recall having connection issues in train up until recently. But what I recall now, for some time, when coming back home and turning on WiFi, email notifications were popping up immediately. Does it mean I had no mobile data and phone synced only after it had WiFi?
This is annoying and driving me mad. Do I have to fastboot flash 4.4 factory image to see if it’s gone on 4.4?
Any ideas what can I check before going through factory img flash again?
Does your data eventually kick in after a few minutes, or are you without data for an extended time after disconnecting wifi? I know with Cataclysm if you enable Smart Radio it takes some time for data to ramp up after disconnecting wifi, although I'm not sure about how other ROMs handle this.
I'm on full stock 4.4.2 now, just roorted with SuperSU 1.80, no mods at all. I wanted to check if it is related to custom ROMs or general.
It's random, after switching WiFi off, mobile data sometimes comes back after minute (rarely) but more often I need to switch Airplane mode on and off to bring internet back, but even this does not work all the time.
Mobile toogle shows 4 bars with 3G or H in orange colour (screen attached) when there's no data or there is data. Never goes white for mobile data (I remember it used to). Now it becomes white only after I switch on WiFi (2nd screen attached).
Hopefully it's not this but I've been seeing more and more people starting to experience it. Mine started acting up slowly and then now it's having the issue in the thread linked below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2525583
I've seen this thread, but my problem is different. I'm not getting the "emergency calls only" message. I can call or receive calls without problems. It's mobile data which can't reconect after switching off WiFi, even though mobile signal is strong - 4 bars and it's showing its on 3G or H. And Why it stays orange even after it finaly regains mobile data?
I was curious if anyone else experienced or has familiarity with this issue. I've been dealing with this since I got the phone almost a year ago. Sometimes when my phone has been idling and I return to check something, the data connection will be unusable. The 3G icon will be visible but internet unavailable (4G works fine, but I prefer to have my phone set to 3G only). It's possible to wait 30-60 seconds for the connection to reset itself, or under settings, switching "Cellular data" or Airplane mode also restores it. Aside from that, the connection is mostly reliable & I don't have any usability issues once data has restored.
I've always ran CM & LOS on this phone so I haven't tried using a stock ROM (solution suggested in an older thread... Mobile data cutting out). I've also flashed the latest Lollipop Radio Firmware (fsg & modem). Thanks for any help.
Edit: I think this may have had something to do with visual voicemail being enabled. I've since switched to AT&T where VVM hasn't worked at all (they suggest using their app) and the problem has gone away.
