Clockwork Recovery 5.0.2.7
After flashing the cm-9-1-(3-0-49)-r8.zip on the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1912582 post and the kernel-3-0-49-r8, I had everything working except for MMS. I made the mistake of playing with the APN settings in an attempt to get the messaging app that came with the rom to send MMS messages. I realize now that I should have just used a third party app, which I was later able to do, but somewhere along the line I lost my cellular data capability. I used the APN settings from T-Mobile and tried some other settings, as well. The weirdest thing is that there were times when I would have cellular data for a little while, but the longest it lasted was a few hours and it never seemed to be anything except 2g (E). I've flashed the radio via hboot, flashed the stock rom (which got the cellular data working constantly), and reflashed the cm-9-1-(3-0-49)-r8.zip, after wiping data, cache, and dalvik.
Thank you in advance for any help.
MMS
I was able to get the cellular data working again by unmounting and formatting the data and system, but I'm still unable to receive MMS messages, even with a third party app. However, I can send them.
MMS over WiFi
It looks like the problem is only over WiFi and that it's a known issue, at least with Cyanogen. Sorry for being a bit of a noob. I hope this helps someone else.

Hello,
is the problem with WiFi in general or just WiFi + MMS?
Actually I have WiFi issues (WiFi is on and with full signal in status bar, but after a time, I have to turn it off and on again to make the WiFi work).
Thanks

Hello all, I am having a problem with my phone. I currently have an htc hero and am on Alltel's network. I have been a root user for some time now, am running a cm7 nightly and I recently decided to back up my rom and do a system wipe to clear up my phone and hopefully improve performance a little. After backing up my rom and performing a data and cache wipe, I re-flashing the nightly on my phone and I now no longer have data signal. I can not access the internet, the android market, email, Facebook, etc. I can however still make and receive phone calls and send and receive text messages. I tried flashing on several different versions of cm7 nightlies and RC's and every time I encountered the same problem of no data signal. The only time I receive data is when I restore my phone to an earlier recovery from before I flashed a new rom on my phone right after rooting while still running sense. I have also tried un-rooting my phone in hopes of re-rooting and re-flashing a rom to fix the problem with no luck. If anyone has any ideas or can help in anyway I would be extremely grateful.
You guys can not tell that out of all of you "genius'" out there that not one of you can help me with my problem?!?!
So apparently I only lose data signal in certain towns. When I am down at school I have no data signal but only when I run cm7. When I am at home I get full data signal. Anyone have any ideas?
Hi-
I have the T-Mobile LG G2x. I have been using and updating my ROM weekly with the latest port of MIUI ( WhiteHawkx's version ) -- currently on 1.12.01 [12.02.2011]. I have a horible time keeping my APN up. I can make calls of course, and I can use data, for a while, but then after 10 - 20 minutes I lose my APN and no more data. I have tried the "Power Button and Vol. Down" trick, but even tho that will fix the data connection, it is only for a short while and I will lose it again. There is NO rhym or reason as to why this is happening.
Am I the only one that is having this serious issue ?? And it is not my data being throttled. When it happens it is gone completely until I somehow force it to restart.
Any thoughts on how to resolve this ?? Are other people having this issue also ?? It happens to me about 30 times a day.
One bit of information: If someone pushes me a packet of data (like a whatApp message or KiK message) my APN will start working again for a little while. But only if they pushed it to me. otherwise data is still not going out. And I do NOT have anything set to sleep.
Thanks for any insight !!
John

(not specific, but I posted a similar issue in this thread)
These are just from the first couple of pages from the General and Q & A forums of topics with people having issues with one or the other:
APNs lost
Data dropping
Losing network connections
etc
Certain roms seem to be slightly better, but people have had issues (like me) with everything from stock, to CM7, to MIUI. This is more than just a coincidence. I think LG must have shipped a batch of POS G2xs. And if you have NEVER had an issue, then count yourself as lucky.
Thank you for the reply..... but my issue seems a bit different. I do not have any trouble with my signal or cell talk dropping. My phone never drops a call. This is only data related. Like going to the Android market or using any app like messenger, whatapps, kik, Skype, ect.... anything that uses data will eventually stop sending, until I reboot. my SIM card is fine.
Any other ideas ?
Ah, sorry I misunderstood. You might want to check out a different kernel then.
im having this issue as well
except i only lose my apns if i shut off than turn back on my phone, im using rg2x
I noticed before that a bunch of my widgets would only work while on data and not wifi, i ended up switching to other widgets that would work with wifi since I use that more often than data. I dont use the browser very often or i would have noticed this earlier, but browsers dont connect when on wifi. this is on stock and dolphin and they both work fine when on data so its definitely a wifi thing. Apps connect fine while on wifi, so its not that my wifi is messed up. Anyone else have this problem? Know a solution? Im at a loss, dont see why thered be a difference between data and wifi, both r internet connections.

Not sure if its the problem, but check Settings > Wireless & networks > Wi-Fi settings > Advanced > Proxy and make sure it's empty.

Similar loss of data.
I am having problems with data and the problem seems to be built in to the software I'm running. (I am a bit of a noob) went from xda to http://www.toms-world.org/android/index.html and installed the recommended ROM and Kernal (tweakstock 1.4 and PBJ). Had no problems and like it all BUT, if I turn on wifi it turns of data. The button looks like data is on according to my settings but the 4G/3G symbol disappears from the info bar. I can't use any service that requires the data connection. When I turn off wifi, data goes back to normal.
I tried the above suggestion clearing out the proxy but it didn't change anything.
btw, I am terrible on these forums. I swear I do search and search and try and find answers before I ask. I think I am really bad at using the search function. I am guessing that maybe there is an option for this built into the ROM or something but I can't find it discussed anywhere

2 things:
1) The disappearing 3g/4g icon is normal, happens on stock.
2) Check Settings - wireless & networks - wifi settings - advanced - proxy and make sure it's blank.
EDIT: I'm an ass. Missed the part where you said you did 2) - hopefully imnuts was more helpful on this one
Also make sure you have nothing in for static IP settings, or DNS settings.
This is sorta on the same topic, the removing all proxy info worked to get most things working on wifi and data except mms. if i get an mms it will not download unless i am on data. Anyone know if this is a normal thing or does something need to be turned on, or off? thanks

That is normal as MMS requires VZW's DNS server, and odds are, your wifi connection won't be able to get it.
I have the same problem but only at my work on a public wifi connection. My wifi works great at home but everytime I try to connect at work my browser crashes. I checked the proxy and it says none. Im running jelly bean on a galaxy nexus.
Ok guys, having a pretty weird problem here. Thought I'd try and get some help here.
I was on my HTC Sensation today and I was looking at a few of the settings under the 'secret' *#*#4636#*#* menu on my phone. Out of curiosity, under the 'phone information' bit, I selected 'WDCMA only' (from WDCMA preferred) to test the coverage in my area. And after that, I haven't been able to get a sodding bit of reception in any way. I reset the option, restarted, pulled the battery, removed the SIM, reflashed my rom, flashed other roms, tried reflashing and flashing other firmwares, everything. No joy.
Curiously, even though I can't make or receive calls, or send or receive texts, data still works (not wifi, data) - I mean, lolwut? And WiFi works.
And there's nothing wrong with my network because my SIM works fine in another phone I have, and I've talked to Vodafone (which was a frankly useless call).
Does anybody have any suggestions? I'd really appreciate any input.
Thanks!
Update: Now data doesn't work. Humph.

Already tried that. Turns out my phone has been IMEI locked. Hmm. Which is strange given that it isn't lost or stolen...
I remember this happened to me on my Nexus One.. that i couldn't set it back no matter what i did..
Always do a Nand backup before tempering with those settings. I dunno how i fixed it but possibly i reflashed my Rom. Try that without wipe..

Hey guys, quick background. I bricked my SGS3 and had to have it replaced. I think I got a refurb phone because from day one I keep having the same issue. First day I got the replacement phone I rooted it and flashed CleanROM 5.0. Everything was peachy until I noticed that I have no 4G or 3G service. In fact, I had no data connectivity at all. My phone can make calls, receive texts no problem, won't connect to internet. If I restart the phone, I have 4G right away. After a few minutes, the 4G icon is on, but the phone won't has no data connection (when I say data connection I mean it will not go online, no internet, no android market, still have voice and txts). If I attempt to go on internet, I get a message saying "No Signal Found For Mobile Networks". I have installed Network Signal Info and right after a restart it says 4G LTE, data connected, upload+download activity. After a few minutes, it says 4G LTE, data connected, after a little while, it will switch to EHRPD, with data "connecting". Also, in the System tab, it will tell me my IEMI and version of JB running, next to "Radio", it says "unknow". WiFi works perfectly btw. My IEMI is perfectly fine,
I had it backed up. My phone number is still there.
Here is what I had tried so far: Switching into and out of Airplane mode, different programs that reset mobile connection, flashed different custom ROMs, flashed the stock kernel, flashed 3 or 4 verizon Modems, Data wipe, cache, Dalvik wipe, Odin'ed back to stock 4.0.1 ICS and had upgraded it to 4.1.1 via verizon software update, changed the SIM card, and reprovisioned the phone with that *3767*whatever the hell code. I'm out ideas.
If anyone has any other idea that I can try before I take it back to Verizon, please, let me know.

Did you go into your mobile data settings to make sure you're on CDMA/LTE? If not I would select and reboot the phone and see if the problem persists. I don't know if you have tried this but it's worth a shot.
I'm having literally the same exact problem with my mom's S3 except for it's not rooted, complete with 'download + upload activity' and 'unknown' radio. I've yet to find anything in my search, but if I do I'll post it here.
