To save battery and because I'm usually on wifi, I've been using phone info till to turn off LTE and using 3g.
If I set it now I cannot make a call as I keep getting pop up, "mobile network not available". I can choose cdma and that still works.

Did you also make sure your modem updated too? Check under About Phone... Some ROMs won't update the modem at the same time.
Thing is it works just fine on LTE and CDMA, if this were a modem issue from the jb K1 leak, I'm assuming others would have same problem.

No not necessarily. Every single phone is different and a lot of the problems people have with with the different radios is because of the area they are in. Change your radio to either the newest and see if that helps, and if not flash some of the older radios.
Also next time if you're asking for help you might not want to be a smartass to someone trying to help you. .

Errr..missing out how my response was being a smartass...that said, if my problem was due to the latest ROM, would have thought perhaps others had an issue.
Whats interesting is I reverted to prior ROMs and I have the same issue. Weird how all of the sudden I can get connected and even read the signal but if I try to place a call when on EvDo, i get that no mobile network available message..
Well then its either your radios or your areas. Why don't you flash a new radio?

Solved my own problem I guess...I was choosing EvDo Only or CDMA Only..when I choose CDMA PRL, it actually connects to 3G and phone calls worked..
Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I think the statement about JB and Phone Info may be right though..before JB, I would choose EvDo Only and it would use 3G, if I chose CDMA Only it was actually on 2G..

Well for one he is asking for help, when someone offers a suggestion and he comes back and says, if that was the problem others would be experiencing it, that's being a smartass. If you know anything about modems or have read through any of the threads about modems then you would know just cause you have a certain issue on a radio doesn't mean anyone else has that same issue or even one similar. There is a guy one one if the threads, I believe its the PA thread, that updated to the J1, and I believe the I5 also, radio and when he did he experienced complete service failure no matter what he did but as soon as he went back to HD everything worked fine.
I am glad his issue is fixed and that hr has service but when you ask for help, and I have been called down before for doing this same thing, and someone asks you something to help you debug your problem you don't just come back and say, and I am paraphrasing here, I don't think that's the issue. You answer the question and then say, if that was the problem wouldn't more people be experiencing the same issue.

You're right he could have answered the question and then say he doesn't think that's the issue, however I don't think what he said should be taken as being smartass. He just genuinely didn't think that would be the problem.

I noticed the gps on my captivate does not work near as good as my 4 year old blackberry.my captivate can't decide where I'm at and thus can't decide how to direct me to my destination. The accuracy is some times is sometimes only with in a few blocks, not within feet (like with my old black berry). I've tried different rom but no improvement.
IThe gps is critical for me and my work. So any help, ideas is appreciated.

Some people never read my signature. And then if they do, they don't know what it means.
BTW: Known issue, if you didn't do your homework before buying then well.......
woh, wait, the captivates have gps issues? I thought it was only limited to the fascinate.
I have tried all the "fix's" and even loaded 3 different ROM's. No improvement what so ever with any of them.
I beginning to think my hardware is broken, but the problem is that when I use GPS Test it sees the many satellites (many with snr above 30) but none are locked on. Thus I think it must be a SW issue.
turn on wifi also. No idea why, but turning on wifi gets to within 10-20 for me..turn it off and 3600..no idea why..even if im not around a wireless point
I just flashed paragon rc 6 rom and now my gps is spot on but we will see how long that lasts
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA Premium App
honestly, i dont care what people say. Ive seen GPS problems with these phones regardless of what rom you flash. Sure the fixes can help, but they dont fix your problem. The only way to truly fix your problem is send it in, get a new one and hope it doesnt do the same exact thing.
3 captivates, 2 with bad gps regardless of rom/fix. 1 worked fine
sent back in 2 captivates
Now all 3 captivates gps work flawless. What do i think from this? its hardware
Welcome to August 2010.
Sent from my Captivate
ive seen gps complaints on just about every smart phone. thing is you need to be smarter than the phone to use fix it.
i have tried a number of fixes and sugestions and find that
A) the gps restore app does something, and it does not over write user settings like the description suggests, really i have used it and all my secgps.conf edits remain as well as the jupiter.xml file and lbs settings.
B) all the cell tower assist features have a negative effect on tracking performance even if they have a positive effect on lock speed.
C) modems have a big effect, but also the modem must be compatable with the gps libraries. if you flash a gps fix you may need to flash a modem. or vise versa.
make sure that the first time to try a different or new fix, you delete the gps data and start it outside and give it 5+ min.

...if you are aware of the existence of xda. I didn't even know this site existed until 7 months after I got my 1006 build. I was so pissed that my $200 smart phone ran like a win 97 computer that I googled "I hate my captivate" and somehow I ended up on this site. now "I love my captivate".
the issue I've noticed with a lot of thread starters is that they don't know $h!t, as in nothing at all, about the phone OR XDA when they post. they're just looking for community support.
I hate it when I see miamison post "should be located in nexus g32 coupe Q&A submarine staples center forum". half of the thread starters are idiots when it comes to this stuff and are just looking for a little help. that is what XDA is here to provide.
I didn't realize XDA had a limited data plan on their forum that only allows for x number of threads per day(they don't).
so next time a newbie posts in the general section about an issue they have, instead of saying "this should be posted elsewhere" or "gah this thread has been #$%@*&% like rabbits" give them the help and I'm pretty sure they will figure out forum etiquette before too long. and you will have good karma .
PS: sorry miamison. just as many threads started as posts you have about the location they belong in. what's the difference?

I never got a chance to debug the issue further as I had a need for the Video Camera to operate properly, and switched back to a GB ROM for the time being.
I'll re-flash my v1.4 of HFS and see if I can check the logs to see if anything is there.

ya try rebooting the phone and see if you have any apn settings mine used to disappear
If you're having trouble with WiFi becoming sluggish, it may be as simple as needing to delete your wifi data.
Navigate, in Root Explorer (or any capable of accessing /data) to /data/misc. Now, either delete the /data/misc/wifi folder entirely, or if you're being anal, you can rename it to something like 'backup_wifi'.
Reboot. On this startup, your phone will rebuild the wifi data, and if you're lucky, everything will be back up to speed. It helped out with my issues after flashing a few ROMs. Sometimes that stuff can get corrupted, as I can attest to with my HP Touchpad countless times. Once you're satisfied with the result, you can delete the old folder, if you chose to rename it instead of deleting it.
Anyways, post your results if you try it.

Yes, it could be a solution cos at work with better WiFi router working on 802.11n my phone connects to it all the time without problem but at home my one I believe does not work on n so it may cause the WiFi issue.
However, I still think this is a software problem cos my old incredible s worked flawlessly both at work and home so the radio must playing a role here.

OK, quote myself, there might be something wrong with what I said about Radio and Wifi, there might be no connection between these two. I read some other forums someone suggested Radio has nothing to do with wifi....
Sorry for the confusion, could any one who is familiar with Radio in Android comment on this? If there is indeed no link between these two, we might need to think other things which cause the Wifi problem.
My bad, should have done more research rather than just pointing to Radio which appeared on top of my head when thinking about the problem.

I posted this because I want to know if others are able to fix their problems by using my fix method. 2 Pages of posts now and not a single person has bothered to say whether they tried my method, much less their results.

The no SIM problem I wouldn't think would be a software issue considering it doesn't affect all the phones. There are many many people who do not have this issue. I'm actually pretty sure I read something a while ago that said the SIM cards they are making are crappy quality, therefor that could be the culprit. I dunno tho for sure.
I don't know about that. That is something I have been thinking about lately..... I have been having a problem with my phones service, I live in a strong 3g and 4g area, and after I rooted both of my GS3's they started dropping service left and right where before they hadn't. The more I have read about the no sim issue the more it sounds just like my service dropping problem just without the no sim message appearing for me. So I wonder if more of the phone have it than we think and we think the terrible service is because of the radios when in all actuality its the no sim error and it just doesn't pop up the no sim message..... yes I know Samsung radios are crap on Verizon but I have plenty more Samsung phones that have never had any service issue whatsoever, whereas this phone you have to hold you head a certain way with both your arms stretched out and your tongue touching your nose just to send a message.

Is this out OTA right now?
Has anyone seen this file posted anywhere yet? I want to take a look inside.
I can't get the OTA because it says service unavailable..... any ideas hoe to get this OTA?

You need a new sim card. Many people have had this problem. I'm not sure if the OTA has come out yet?
Running stock and it's not available for me yet

I'm running the HD, so this new HE must be like one build newer I would guess.
I wonder if people running HD will receive the OTA to HE, or just those running F2, G1 and G7.
I have an AT&T One-X running Viper 2.0 (mind you this issue has existed for me on various roms Cleanrom 5.0, CM10, etc and radio versions not just Viper). Anyhow I am unable to maintain a contant WIFI connection -- it connects and signal/strength are fine however it will drop after a few seconds to a few minutes every time on different access points.
I know there were reported hardware issues with the International version and I more so started to notice this as I am putting my phone on wifi more often to watch various streams from ustream and twitch.tv.
I have an IPAD and a laptop next to me both on the same access points and they don't drop out -- whatever is going on is not specific to the content I am viewing (it also happens when I try and watch content from HBOGO or Youtube).
I am really frustrated at this point and am really starting to wonder if its a hardware issue like the International version -- my biggest fear is I call AT&T for a replacement and get a un-rootable/lockable phone sent back and even then it might still be an issue with the phone its-self...
I would appreciate any help/insight regarding this issue because I am starting to wonder if I am better off just selling this phone and getting a SGS3 (which I really don't want to do unless I have to).

My HOX did that for a while also. Usually turning best WiFi performance under WiFi settings fixed it on sense ROMs. I'm using the new cm10 and it never drops now... but it takes a long time to connect for me. But try that and see if it helps

Sadly this still happens -- even reloaded CM10 and it happens in it also.
I think I remember h8rift saying how HTC massacred the wifi module... I'm thinking once this huge kernel merge gets ironed out we will see wifi problems disappear..

Sigh not at all what I wanted to hear but thanks for the information -- sorry this is just very very frustrating.

Have you tried using reserved DHCP IP addressing with your router? I was frustrated by similar issues with a mixed OS environment, but reserving specific IPs for each device fixed the problem for me.
Unfortunately I've got a non-rooted Evita, so have no experience with the WiFi radios in CM9/10 or AOSP.

Not the same issue. The WiFi antenna design on the international version is completely different from ours, and we don't suffer from the issue of the case flexing and making the antenna pins lose contact.
Its not to say you don't have a hardware issue. Just not the same one as the international version. People have had some random issues with WiFi on our version, but nothing as widespread as the international version.
Please keep all question related threads in the Q&A section only. Thank you.
