SGH-I727R Help ?

Hey all !
I've bought a Samsung Galaxy S2 from Rogers, here in Canada. The model on the box clearly states SGH-I727R. I've managed to get it rooted and I've installed Sky-ICS 7.04 custom ROM on it. Everything went fine but I'm having a small issue.
The 4G signal keeps dropping. I can call just fine but about 10-15 seconds after the call ends, 4G drops and I can't use data anymore.
Everytime I want to use the Internet, I have to make a call first then I can use it but as soon as my phone goes on sleep mode, 4G shuts down and I've got to do it all over again. I've tried calling Rogers Tech support but they told me I'm registered on the network and that I should normally be having signal.
I'm pretty sure this is a newbie question but I'm new to Android and I haven't found much help by searching the forums so far.
Edit : The "Turn on Plane Mode" thingy doesn't work at all. Also, Rogers Tech suggested to manually search for a carrier and select Rogers but that didn't change a thing. Also, selecting Automatic Mode doesn't do a thing.

search for forums for the darkside script, and the ucla3 modem. reboot into cwm amd under mounts and storage format cache, data and system. Then flash darkside. Then ucla3. Then skyics. Reboot and let phone sit for 20 min, then reboot again. report back to us :-D

Been a couple hours now and it's still up and running. I'll post results tomorrow morning.
Thanks a lot :-D

I'm guessing my instructions worked then. Hit that thanx button bro ;-)

I let my phone recharge overnight. When I woke up this morning, it wasn't working. Rebooted, still wouldn't work. I had no use for it so I let it sit on my desk till I got to work. As we speak, it appears to be working. It seems intermitent but it works twice as often now O.O
What I did :
- Flashed DarkScript
- Flashed UCLA3 Modem (How come is that file like 350mb?)
- Flashed Sky-ICS Speed 7.0
- Applied Sky-ICS 7.04 Update
Anything else I've missed ? I've seen another post where someone explained the same thing but with UCLA3 Kernel + Faux Kernel. Should I try that ?

ur flashing a ucla3 rom lol, the radio is only 20 mb. Ur flashing a rom ontop of another rom, no wonder its not working

I dunno, I did a search on the forum for UCLA3 modem. Ended up with that file, which is weird because I was expecting a smaller file too. Do you happen to have a link to that file ?

Search for this radio " REX_MOd_LA3" and give it a shot..

Now THAT was quite helpful

Nope. Still no luck. Flashed DarkScript, flashed UCLA3 Radio then Sky-ICS 7.0 and 4G still drops randomly.
Not sure what's left to do at this point ...

This seems a very useful topic (at least to me )
So what is the sequence of flashing? :
1. ROM
2. script
3. radio
Do we have to wipe the data every time we flash each of those

Are you doing the wipes that were suggested?
After all this flashing and running different stuff you've probably got loads of crap in your caches.

I believe the order is
1. Script
2. ROM
3. Radio
but I did Script, Radio THEN ROM, which I believe is incorrect, unless I am mistaken

Yes, I did the wipe as suggested. Anyway, I think DarkScript does it for you aswell.

You just need to start over, wipe, Odin stock.

That guy has a history of trolling
And I agree with xcrazydx, I recommend starting over. Hopefully you didnt start adding apps and customizing yet. If so use TB and restore it later

Reinstalled Stock Rogers ROM. Did all previous steps. Tried to flash custom Boot Animation instead of TPC V3 animation (Yeah, I switched from Sky-ICS to TPC as I thought I'd check if it is ROM-related...). Phone was stuck on Boot logo for a good 15 minutes. Pulled battery, re-flashed using Odin + Stock ROM. BSOD while flashing.
Go Windows !
I'm re-flashing using Odin.
I'll keep this thread up-to-date as much as possible.
Edit : Flashing worked. Yay for unbricked phone !

The last two steps are independent of each other. It doesn't matter.
Start again from stock though.

Seems to be working so far under TPC V3, starting from Stock ROM + DarkScript. 4G icon disappears when under WiFi(Which is normal, I guess) and reappears whenever it uses 4G(SMS/Call).
Problem solved, so far ! We'll see how it's going tomorrow
Thanks a lot to everyone for the help, really appreciated. Great community !

Wipe Cache/Dalvik and data.
DON'T use the device after the first boot, let it just sit there alone for 10 minutes, reboot it and start using it after, works for me everytime, i guess it's just cache regenerating all over again which can cause slow performance and can get corrupted sometimes causing freezes.

Did you follow the steps ONE BY ONE on the CM9 thread? you should use the flashing from stock method, all of the steps.
If you did that, try another base rom (XXKPU) and then flash CM9 on it.

If it was working fine before you turned it off, it's probably not a brick.
Maybe it's a hardware failure?
Try using the reset button between the speaker and the camera and try to turn it on (Search to find pictures about it).
If that doesn't work, keep trying to access download, if that also doesn't work, it's probably hardware related, although that in my opinion would be weird.

RemICS v1.6 mobile data issue

I have flashed with chinmay_7d's RemICS v1.6 . Yeak it looks cool, but I am facing an issue. When I turn on mobile data usage, the phone will turn off after some time (5-6 minutes) and it is not possible to turn on the phone again . It is needed to plug in it and turn on and then only it is working. In this condition, it is showing android is upgrading. There is no problem with using internet while plugged in. Anyone know how to fix this...? I like this ROM very much and so if it if fixed, then that will be cool.

are u coming from earlier versions of RemICS? followed all the installation steps?, go back to re-flash and tell us

Yes I am .Actually this issue was with 1.5.4 also. I have followed all the steps and cleared dalvik Cache and formatted cache partition. I have even done the factory reset and wiped all apps. I think the issue is because, it is reading the battery profile incorrectly or battery is actually drained when mobile data is turned on and that is triggering switch off thing.

Not sure if I'm right, but I think the practical solution to your problem would be to perform a flash from 0 up KPQ or KPU (which are the most stable to install this ROM), it may be the modem or the base ROM you used (for 3 months I have this ROM and never gave me any problems with KPQ)
Another thing, have you tried testing with Dhiru CM9 Base? to see if the same thing happens?

Have you tried to fix permissions on CWM? I got some problems with it too. After fixing and installing 1.5.4 again no problem. Now I'm on 1.6 and all is fine...

@ tavomt :
I think I can directly flash to stock rom.

Please help me
sI have tried fix permission and after that also this issue persists.
Also I have flashed with CM10 alpha from dhiru. This is also showing the same behavior. :crying:
Now flashed with RemICS JB . But the issue is still there. :crying::crying::crying:
I think I need to go back to REMICS 1.0, as there is no issue on it. But I desperately like to use this ROM. If anyone has got a fix, please post and help me.
Sometimes, when I take apps also , the phone gone off (Google Currents and Angry bird )

What is your baseband version? Mine is xle4 and have no such problem using remics(kernel bam & chaos) and rem-jb. Try using 2g only for a day, and see if the problem still persist.

The issue you are facing is exclusive to you. So i will not consider this a bug from my ROM.
I suggest you to follow correct flashing procedure. Wiping data before flashing a new ROM is a good practice.
It is possible that a third party app you are using is responsible.

Issue persists in Stock also
:crying::crying::crying:
The sad thing is that the problem persists after flashing stock ROM also. I have first flashed to XXKPE and then to XXKPU using Odin as given in the following link
http://blog.vigitalsolutions.com/2012/08/18/upgrade-samsung-galaxy-sl-i9003-to-cyanogenmod-9-cm9/
The issue is there in both the stock ROMS. Actually this issue was not present before. Now don't know what to do. I am only able to connect to internet in plugged in state.
Some times it turns off during call also .

[Q] stock recovery exclamation mark!

Hi, my phone is currently running on ICS stock, the sweden version (Q9). Some time back, just to see what it was, I had encrypted my device. I faced some problems regarding touch and USB port, so without decrypting it, I flashed a GB ZSKK5 ROM. It showed some error while flashing that ROM, so I flashed it again and this time it got flashed successfully.
Then when all was good and nice, I flashed the ICS sweden version again. This time I faced problems like 'closing of android.phone process' etc. Also when I go to recovery mode, I see th android logo with a orange exclamation!! Also none of the options work in the recovery mode.
Has anyone faced something like thiS? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

Wi-Fi Won't turn on any more

Hey guys,
I've noticed in the last few days that my Wi-Fi just doesn't work any more. It won't even allow me to turn it on. When I go to the settings, it shows the option to turn Wi-Fi on, but it is greyed out now. I don't know what happened.
I'm using CM10 nightlies. I usually flash the new one every night and that's when I noticed this start happening. Since it started, I have tried flashing back to some older ones, even doing the full factory resets and cache wipes. No luck. Even after doing a fresh wipe, when the phone starts the initial google set up, the LTE isnt even working. It takes a few minutes for LTE to finally turn on, but the Wi-Fi has yet to.
Any suggestions as to what I should do?
Thanks

I just tried this right before I read your message. I wiped and flashed CleanROM 5.0. Sure enough Wi-Fi was working, but then went back to the CM10 ROM and it appears to not be working again. I've been looking at the CM10 thread and nobody else seems to be having this problem.
