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

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.

quick format or a full format?
---------- Post added at 10:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:23 PM ----------
i just formated my sd deleted everything possible and flash rom + gapps.
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 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?

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.

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.
Okay, so I flashed Paranoid Android 2.16. Everything went great, flashed fine. But I could not get wifi to work at all. It would turn of and back on randomly, would not connect to any network, etc. So, I flashed the ROM by Team Viper. Again, flashed fine, worked fine, but Wifi would not work, it would do the same thing.
So, then I restored my nandroid backup, and wifi works grand. Is there something I missed? Stock isn't too bad on this phone, but I'm a flash junkie, and I'll miss JB on my GNex. PA works beautifully, except for the damn wifi issue.
So, any suggestions on how to get wifi to work on my custom ROMs? Loving this phone so far, I've missed HTC. The three things that would make it my *perfect* phone is SD card slot, bigger battery, and 720p screen. But the phone is gorgeous and feels amazing physically and performance wise.

Okay, I'm glad that it's not just me. I'm going to try again, sometime tomorrow or later today. I'm hoping that it's something that can be fixed with a little more digging, or if it's something that we need a wifi module for.
Same thing here. Just fixed a soft brick now I got utb ROM working. Flashed trick droid and WiFi is gone.

Okay, there was another post with this issue, something that I missed. But apparently it's because of the last update (ICS 4.0.4 & Sense 4.1).
Flashing ROMs over this update seems to be breaking wifi. Here's the other post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1913757
I'm having a lot of trouble with this as well. I just bought a One S a few days ago and got to work rooting, etc. After trying to install other ROMs, I can't get wifi to connect.
I have a T-Mobile version One S and can only assume it's gone through the latest updates prior to my purchase (got it through craigslist).
I have a decent idea of what I'm doing with these phones most of the time, but it seems like this time around I may need a little hand holding through the potential fixes. Like an idiot, I didn't bother to do a backup before jumping into flashing my first ROM, so I probably shouldn't be surprised that I'm having troubles.
Anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated. Right now I'm just stuck here.
What info do you need and how can I find it?
Extra info:
I did try the 1.84 and 2.35 partition fixes but still couldn't get the issue resolved.
Yeah.. I flashed the international version of trickdroid and my wifi signal was great, then I flashed the TMO version (I have a tmo one s) and it messed up my wifi signal completely, weird.
Have you guys found a way to fix it? Im having the same issues with all the custom roms, I've tried several of them and even different versions of the same rom(I thought it was an issues with that rom version) but the wifi never seems to work on any rom I flash. I'm using a htc vivid with att. If you found a fix could you pm me?
Hi I wanted to try Cm10 and data kept blinking a on and off. I tried get ril to see if it would help the situation. No joy. I am running 3.33 firmweare and I am s off. I ended up matching the radio with different ril from xda. Result was no data at all. I restored a backup and used get ril to match my current radio and I have signal again. However I would really like to run Cm10. Is there any suggestions to help with this problem. I've never had any data problems before? Can someone suggest a possible fix for this issue? I appreciate your input.
try flashing it again, this happened to me about a week or two ago and appears to be common with AOSP (the reason for this, I have no idea) but yeah if you absolutely need data, just restore a backup for about an hour or two
Here is everything there is to know about this problem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1873374
The short version is...there's no permanent fix yet. It will fix itself in a few hours. But it might come back.
This problem is getting much less common on CM10 over the last 6 weeks or so. Prior to that it was a VERY common issue. It could be a combination of other problems in the AOSP framework that cause instability and T Mobile refarming their network nationwide.
Thank you for the answers ! That's good to know! I am Tmobile so yes the incompatibility makes since. I will give it another try and see how it fares. If I still get the issue, I'll just restore my nandroid. Again thank you.

Restoring your nandroid won't fix it. The problem has something to do with how the data network authenticates your device and how that authentication is done with the CM Framework.
The variable (whatever is changing so that this is not occuring 100% of the time for 100% of t mobile users) is on the T Mobile network side. So simply switching back to your nandroid backup won't fix it even though everything was working fine with that backup. Both your nandroid and the updated version of the ROM have the same flaw that can provide that unstable data connection. And whatever T Mobile is doing that is causing that flaw to show will occur on every AOSP rom with an ICS or JB base.
Switching to your nandriod, switching to CM9, AOKP, Opensensation 1 or 2, etc etc etc...none of it will make the problem go away. Your best bet is to turn data off for a few hours and try later. Just ride it out until the network is no longer creating that data instability.
Just for information purposes the developer of the basic CM10 and OpenSensation 2, Bruce, thinks that the problem has something to do with the T Mobile network not being able to differentiate between it's MMS network and it's Data network. Those two operate on the same bands and are very similar, but there's some subtle difference in them so the phone knows the difference between and incoming MMS and an incoming data transmission. Bruce has done some work to try and help that. Some people saw the problem stop cold and other people have seen it greatly reduced. That's not confirmed that that's the issue and the improvement may be coincidental. With T Mobile refarming it's network city by city they may be gradually changing changing the way that's done and inadvertently fixing the problem.
How bout a Sense ROM? I flashed ARHD when I had this problem and had instant data
Sent from my HTC Sensation
Thank you both. And thanks for the explanation. I suppose I got lucky that my backup did restore my data after using get ril again it was stronger. I did also hear T-Mobile is having tower problems or something like that. I'm wondering if that had something to do with it also. Maybe I'll give sense a try again. Too bad I was really hoping to give Cm10 a go. But I do need data. Again, thank you for your help!

We cant blame T-Mobile for this issue when we can clearly see it occurring ONLY on a specific handful of Sensation ROMs.
I've gone from a solid data connection on the stock Sense directly to a very unstable blinking data on bruce's CM10/Kang and OpenSensation 2 within minutes. Not a coincidence. All the while, my T-Mobile CM10 Nexus One sat next to me without an issue. Over the next day my gf complained about her Sensation's lack of data and still my Nexus One is fine.
Is being S-ON to blame?
idk, I guess I'll try the Android Revolution HD ROM next.

I just flashed last weekend. I used the latest builds from http://goo.im/devs/bruce2728
This one: cm-10-20130109-bruce2728-pyramid.zip (data blinking on boot)
Then this one: OpenSensation2-20121123-pyramid.zip (did not fix) (so I followed it with OTA Dec 3 - did not fix)
My Method (coming from Official ICS Sense w/ hboot 1.27 on T-Mobile Sensation 4G):
HTCDev unlocked
left S-ON
flashed latest CWM then did a "wipe data/factory reset"
extracted boot.img from cm-10-20130109-bruce2728-pyramid.zip and flashed it via fastboot (necessary for S-ON)
flashed cm-10-20130109-bruce2728-pyramid.zip via CWM
switched recovery to latest 4EXT with SmartFlash enabled
flashed OpenSensation2-20121123-pyramid.zip over CM10 (no wipe)
Phone keep randomly turning off, even with a full charge? Tried different Roms, but nothing changes? New battery doesn't do the trick? Me too, until I found a post on a Vodaphone site that said that multiple copies of HTC Sense was to blame, and that if you go into SETTINGS, then APPS, then select the ALL tab, scroll down to HTC SENSE and Disable the oldest one, then reboot, all my problems would be solved.....
And they have
Hope this helps somebody else and hope it's easier to find than the original post
Another thing that may be the culprit is that the battery is not connecting to the pins correctly. In which case a piece of paper can do the trick! Just lodge it above the battery so that it presses it firmly down onto the pins and you should see no more reboots!
Did the trick for me on several occasions
Did the pack the battery thing at first, and it did seem to work until I upgraded the battery to an Anker.....
Also, ROFL at my spelling mistake in the title. Was definately meant to say Sensation :nod:

Anyway, i disabled it since yesterday.
Everything fine so far.
Just had a random restart, the first one since I disabled old sense.
ARHD 7.3 stock kernel.

Don't think disabling old htc sense does the trick bro

Only had two shutdowns in the last week and both those were after long gaming sessions in the mornings. That's quite an improvement compared to the 7 or 8 I was getting a day. Sorry it hasn't worked for you though.
Had a few more today too.
I am desperate and willing to try anything.
Maybe, I'll enable it and compare to how it was before.
I should probably get another phone (one S, one mini)
My brother has this problem as well. If you find a fix please tell me.

Randomly restarting of Sensation it's Snapdragon problem, not software. Sometime it's PowerManager IC problem, but then You should see problem with battery level. Once- it's full, and while ago -almost empty etc. Same problem is with Amaze 4G and other with same CPU.
A friend of mine just started having this issue, after upgrading ROM.

My wife's used to have constant reboots daily, stock, rooted,then soff. All rebooted. Then I tried flashing in a certain order the worked with no more reboots.
1.full wipe
2.flash firmware(only once of course)
3.boot into recovery full wipe
4.flash rom

I only flash ROM, as I don't need to flash firmware every time.
I like ARHD ROMs. It happens even when I do full wipe and it laso started happening to a friend, who didn't have this problem before, same ROM as me.

My post says to only flash firmware once but if u flash firmware then go back to recovery you'll notice it has an error mounting a partition and to perform full wipe. Also phone doesn't boot until wiping cache and dalvik. I'm just saayong what worked for me when I thought all was lost and tried every ROM

I tried wiping cache and dalvik without any benefit regarding restarts/turn-offs.
Anyway, depending on the ROM I am using, sometimes I get random restarts, sometimes turn offs.
Well I suggest trying the method I posted. I know sounds like it won't do much but I'm I'm telling u I had reboots like crazy everyday and once I flashed in that order it stopped COMPLETLY. So make a back up and try to start all over with firmware and everything.

OK, I will try that.
Anyway, I was on stock kernel and now I just flashed SebastianFM, see how this works, better or worse.
I'm also thinking about trying another ROM.
//LE: with SebastianFM's Overclocked Kernel, I already had a few restarts :-\
