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 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?
I just purchased a used HTC One X from the Rogers network and unlocked it. Before rooting it, on the Sense rom WiFi was working great. Very strong signal and it never dropped. Upon flashing CM10, it's not picking up my home network (which I know is working because I'm typing on it right now and the device was connecting to it earlier).
I downloaded WiFi analyzer and it's jumping between networks, some networks pop up and then disappear and then new ones pop up. WiFi is just acting very strange. I did all the appropriate wipes before flashing.
I found a lot of WiFi issues surrounding the international One X but I don't think this is a defect since it was working fine with Sense.
Does anyone else have any experience with this?
Thanks!
Just flashed back to a Sense rom, and low and behold my WiFi is working properly again.
I've had the same experience with CM10 (different nightlies) and AOKP, WiFi is just not reliable. I can connect just fine and the signal strength is the same as with Sense (including CleanROM) but at random times transfer speeds will go down or just drop completely, usually turning WiFi off and on fixes it but it happens again within a couple of hours.
I've tried a couple of tips from those threads like turning off the 5GHhz radio on my router but that doesn't seem to help

I can't even detect my home network. There's a few of the neighbors networks that pop up on and off but it's not consistent.
I'm literally sitting on my workstation which is connected to my home network and I have full bars. On Sense, I also get full bars and WiFi works as expected.

I've had troubles as well with WIFI on my device running CM10. I've posted numerous time to the CM10 dev forum but nothing comes from it at all. I had very good wifi with the Oct nightlies but now my Wifi is chocked off and doesn't perform as expected. I've tried rebooting my modem, router, switch everything and still the same results. Is there anyway to bring some attention to this or figure out the problem?
Help others and myself figure this problem out, anyone?

Are you on the stock kernel for CM10? Try flashing another kernel. It could be a kernel issue that you're having. I had this problem When I flashed PACman, and all i did was just flash Rohan's Build 5 and now my WiFi is working just fine.

I'll download rohans kernel as I've been using the built-in Kernal with that comes with CM10.
**Edit: I've installed RoHan's kernel but still the results are the same. The wifi and network become grayed out from time to time and websites fail to load. I know my home connection isn't quite that fast but there is no reason that the connection all together would drop.
my wifi icon on cm10 just turns grey after a while and doesn't receive any data. So i have to toggle it off and then on again to get it to work again

The CM10 stable rom is out for the LTE One X. I'm going to give it a go and see if any thing changes.
Check your region code under Wifi -> Menu -> Advanced Settings -> Region Code
Make sure it's under US (or wherever you are), reboot and see if that helps.

I'm located in Canada, and I've tried setting it to US and Canada. No dice.
I tried the a different kernel, CM10 nightly, CM10 stable, AOKP, and none of them are working.
I'm having a similar problem. My wifi won't turn on for some reason. It's related to the phone hardware, not my network. And I'm only seeing this problem when flashing the most recent nightly of CM10.
I'm not sure what else to try. Any ideas?
I've tried rohan's kernel as well as setting the region for the WiFi adapter but eventually it happens again. It's not as bad as some of the other posts I've seen, but it does kill data through WiFi at some point and transfer speeds drop.
Is there anyway to get further data on this? I know that my phone doesn't have the hardware "bug" first reported with a few of the devices. Any logs or error reports we can try and gather?
I managed to connect to my home wifi which I was previously unable to connect to, I had to change my router's wireless signal channel from 13 to 1. I am able to hold a signal fine, however I know many of my neighbors networks are not showing up like they should. Similarly, I am also unable to pick up my university network at school.
As I've said, Wifi works fine on Sense.
Is there any way I can help with error reporting in any way? I don't mind donating a bit of money to the CM team and help them get some logs.
It's nice to know I'm not the only one affected.
I would have to say this is completely a Kernel problem. I am having a similar issue in cm10 on N7000. But it's only happens to the some of the routers.
My house's router is a d-link product. And when you are connected you will having no issue, but once you restarted your phone you are getting trouble to reboot the router once to get your self connected again, in the phone, the wifi will stating "Connecting" like forever.
But I am not getting the same trouble when I am with my company's wifi and the Wifi of my friends lynsys. So its hard to tell the developer about this issue because it's not happens to all people. I hopes this info helps. Reboot the router usually works for me.

Unfortunately it's not always possible to reboot the router.
Like I said, I can confirm this issue and anything I can do to help I will try to provide.
These issues with CM10 and the new AOSP will almost make me *shutter's to think this thought* move back to sense.....I'm just not sure what to do. Should we link this to the dev thread?
Edit: I've captured a logcat from me turning on wifi, connecting to a website, and loading a second website to see the behavior. PM me if this would be of use.
This is the only reason I'm using a Sense-based ROM (CleanROM), nightly builds for CM10 run great and I have no other issues, but this one is kind of a deal-breaker for me.

I feel you man. I'm sticking with AOSP because I managed to at least get my home network working but it's definitely annoying not being able to get onto my university network.
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)
I try to keep up with latest os, but 4.3 has me baffled. The first time I tried to install 4.3 was on Jellybam 10.2. I followed the instructions to the tee, but it didn't work. All 4.3 roms I've loaded I've never had a signal. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Now that all of the 4.3 roms have the custom recovery already on the rom, it still doesn't work. I have no signal. I thought about unrooting my sg3 and starting over, but that is a pain. So I'm basically stuck with 4.2.2. If anyone has anything to say about my problem please do so. Thanks

I'll second that. Was running cleanrom 7.0, thought I'd fool around with 4.3 Flashed a couple of different ROMS, and none worked. Restored my backup of Cleanrom, and still no signal. It shows 4 bars, can receive an occasional text, but trying to text or make a call the signal drops away. Help!

when you flash, co you clean flash? and what recovery are you using? This info would help in getting your questions answered.
i've been running Mastamoon's unofficial 10.2 (Android 4.3) nightlies (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2385652), and regularly flash back and forth between TW Roms as well and have never had any real data problems. sure, drops data every once in a great while, but Mastamoon puts a lot of work into cleaning up issues.
one thing: IF you flash, and you don't have data, did you wait more than a couple of minutes? Sometimes it takes a while on first flashes. Also, did you check what your status said? (menu >system settings >about phone >status? Also, check to insure your mobile network is set up correctly (menu >system settings >more > mobile network settings) and check your CDMA subscription is set to RUIM/SIM and NOT NV, and network mode is set to LTE/CDMA/EvDo sometimes during a bad flash, these can get hosed up.
like i said, i run Masta's unofficial version, and go in and out of data areas (no data in the subway tunnels) and it always goes right back.
give that a try, and if still having problems, add more information befor just saying "i don't get any data with any 4.3 rom

i've been running Mastamoon's unofficial 10.2 (Android 4.3) nightlies (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2385652), and regularly flash back and forth between TW Roms as well and have never had any real data problems. sure, drops data every once in a great while, but Mastamoon puts a lot of work into cleaning up issues.
one thing: IF you flash, and you don't have data, did you wait more than a couple of minutes? Sometimes it takes a while on first flashes. Also, did you check what your status said? (menu >system settings >about phone >status? Also, check to insure your mobile network is set up correctly (menu >system settings >more > mobile network settings) and check your CDMA subscription is set to RUIM/SIM and NOT NV, and network mode is set to LTE/CDMA/EvDo sometimes during a bad flash, these can get hosed up.
like i said, i run Masta's unofficial version, and go in and out of data areas (no data in the subway tunnels) and it always goes right back.
give that a try, and if still having problems, add more information befor just saying "i don't get any data with any 4.3 rom

Good afternoon, and thanks for your help.
I wish I could give you more information, but I broke one of my cardinal rules about messing with my phone and didn't take notes. Suffice it to say I was trying a couple of different 4.3 ROMS in the forums, as well as the two available MIUI roms that were in there. I use TWRP.
I did wait quite a while before declaring no data, it has actually been a couple of days. It does show I have a signal, and I can get texts that are sent to me. When my wife tries to call my phone it goes right to voice mail, even when it does say I have a signal (4G, full bars). I also cannot send a text, it immediately goes to 'failed message'.
I tried setting my phone back to LTE/CDMA/EvDo, but I don't see an option for CDMA subscription. I wonder if I accidentally tried a Global ROM instead? All I am really looking for is some 4.2 love, I like what my daughters Nexus 4 has for lock screen widgets, and my Cleanrom installation is acting a little wonky now and again, so thought it was time to flash something new. Silly rabbit, trix are for kids.
Thanks again. Thinking of flashing a stock ROM and starting over. Any thoughts?

follow my last post; Mastamoon has his version of CM10.2 (4.3) running great, and is very quick at answers (during the week that is) as well a couple of other DEVs that follow that tread are always willing to offer help. AND he has a download app, that once you install will tell you when there is an update, give you a direct link to it, and after downloading, will check the MD5 to insure a good download.
providing you are on VZW that is.
I actually had this problem coming from hyper drive to dirty Unicorn. But i started out on the Droid X back in the day so I was used to it. While I don't know if this really works but it worked for me is do *22899 then *228# ( so the keyboard pops up ) i did it a few times also i turned it off the cell service and turned it back on using the toggle. While i dont know if that will do it it worked for me. I know LTE dont need do that because of the sim but it does for me in the hiccup.
A question i have that i cant post in the Dev Fourm because of lack of post. I been part of XDA for long time just never posted. But I'm running Dirty Unicorn and theres a option for fast charge but it does nothing. I've used this feature before and makes my car charger work better and home charging and my battery sucks now but does anyone know how to get it working? I've tried terminal did SU and FFC but nothing.
I'm running twrp recovery. I'm asuming the latetest version. And i do let it settle for a while. As for the settings you mentioned, everything is normal,and as it should be. The imei,meid, ect. Is normal. Thanks for the input.
I've fixed this by going full ODIN, putting a stock image back on, and following the instructions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2066133 Seems to be working, it is no longer on roaming.

I try to keep up with latest os, but 4.3 has me baffled. The first time I tried to install 4.3 was on Jellybam 10.2. I followed the instructions to the tee, but it didn't work. All 4.3 roms I've loaded I've never had a signal. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Now that all of the 4.3 roms have the custom recovery already on the rom, it still doesn't work. I have no signal. I thought about unrooting my sg3 and starting over, but that is a pain. So I'm basically stuck with 4.2.2. If anyone has anything to say about my problem please do so. Thanks

When I tried 4.2 and turned off data it completely killed my signal. None of my recoveries of 4.1.2 had signal. Flashing back to stock fixed the signal problem.
Hellfire and Dirty Unicorns have worked great for me since going to 4.3 and 4.3.1. I use cwm touch recovery but idk how much of an effect recovery has with flashing a rom successfully.
But this tool makes rooting, unlocking the bootloader, and recovery very simple and easy. (but I would flash the latest recovery after using the tool just in case)

I believe fast charge is kernel related and not because of a rom. I haven't ever used fast charge but all the kernel threads always list fast charge as a feature. But which DU build are you running?
I have installed ViperOne and Clean Rom and I have the same problem with both. After a while of inactivity my data will just quit working. The icon will still be there but the phone won't connect at all. I have to place it into airplane mode to fix this. And just fyi sleep mode is off and power saver is off. It's just like my phone forgets how to connect after a little while. I had ZERO problems when I was stock. And now this.....please help me!

Oh and I have also done factory resets between each Rom install so everything was clean when it was flashed.

Nope. I've returned completely to stock and am going to get a new SIM card tomorrow. If that doesn't work I'm going to get a warranty replacement.

Read santod's post here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=55130095
then respond in this thread. scrosler doesn't want us to discuss this issue in his rom thread. This is the perfect place to continue.
I can't wait to try it because I have the same issue on my travels but will have to wait until I get home and to my PC. Would love to read more success stories...
In essence santod says: flash the stock recovery, do a factory reset from hboot to restore the VZW radios, then restore your setup. Should work with most sense roms, but so far the people solving this issue all flashed a RUU.
Anybody have a link handy for the stock recovery?
i've ruu'd back to "stock" and am trying this now.

Stock Recovery: Link :good:
You can find that and my firmware links in this thread.
Did the stock recovery so far so good but I won't know for sure until I get out and about today. It seems I didn't have the issue until it dropped from 4g to 3g back to 4g and have a decent 4g signal at home.
For now it seems as though that did the trick. I didn't loose data all day, we will see though.
Well it didn't work, I had to toggle airplane mode several times today to get data to work again.

Are you going to RUU?
That's what I plan to do tomorrow. It's getting to be extremely annoying. Not even toggling airplane mode or mobile data on/off does anything. I have to reboot every time.

RUU'd, stock recovery, flashed radios, and new SIM. I've tried everything. It seems as though if I'm in a low signal area where I go from 4g to 3g to Wi-Fi it happens. It's like there's a handoff problem between all the radios. Will show 4 bars of 4g but under mobile data in settings says disconnected.
Mine just started doing this. I'll RUU when I get back home to Texas.

I can confirm that it did fixed the issue, I didn't loose data all day no matter if wifi, 4g,3g, or 1x,
Same here. In the last 5 days I travelled in 3 states, large cities and very rural areas where it dropped to 3G or 1x - it never had problems to return to 4G (or getting a data connection at all).
This fix proves what's so great about these forums! I probably would have ditched a phone I totally love in all other aspects due to a problem that OEM customer service would not even acknowledge existed!
