I hope you guys can help me out with a problem. Sorry about the long post ahead, I'm just trying to give as most information as possible.
Introduction: I recently installed the latest releases to see how jellybean was coming along on the Desire S. I flashed PACman and then CM10. I liked them a lot, but I usually prefer to wait until a final release, so I reverted my backup of CM7.2. One week later I notice my internet connection is very unstable, I don't know if it's my carrier's fault, or the upgrade messed with something and the backup didn't restore, and reflashing CM10 changes nothing. I didn't notice any problems right away after testing the other roms, but like I said, everything happened around the same time frame.
Problem: First of all, if I enable 3G, it will almost never connect. Sometimes I get a 2G connection, but most of the times there is no internet at all. On 2G only, it seems that a few minutes after screen-off, the connection drops. Only after I wake the device, it realizes the connection was down and resyncs with my google account. And even while awake, 2G is still very unstable, I get numerous network errors on the facebook app timeouts on google play.
Device info: Should I test other radios? I noted that it came from the factory with 3822.10.08.04_M, and was on 20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.11_M (I don't remember when that changed, I don't think I've ever explicitly changed a radio). Now I just flashed 3822.10.08.04 back, but it didn't change anything. Could HBOOT also have any influence the problem? I remember I downgraded do 0.98 so I could S-OFF using Revolutionary. Now I'm on 6.98.1002.
Lastly, probably a logcat would help. How should I go about doing it? Reboot phone, wait for it to connect, put it to sleep until it disconnects, wake it up, wait for reconnection, then logcat? Since the problem persists both on CM7.2 and CM10, I decided to stick with 10.0 (nk111's cm-10-20130109)
Thanks a lot in advance!
Here's a logcat I took today, if anyone is willing to investigate. Started recording after gtalk was online, turned off the screen, waited a bit, turned it back on and checked that gtalk was offline.

I'm having similar issues on Pacman 18 and 19.3.
My connections seem stable, but I cannot switch between 2G and 3G without rebooting. If I don't reboot, the phone has no internet connection.
Also, on 3G, battery life is very bad.
I'm wondering if it would help to flash a different radio. I never changed the existing radio.

I am sort of at a loss. My Surround is losing it's celluar data settings every time I turn it off and boot it back up. The signal bars do no E, or G, or H or anything else. If I am not connected to wifi there is no data at all. Speaking of wi-fi, it also does not maintain most of my saved networks. The only one is does is the one at work.
I first ran into this after Mango RTM upgraded to final. I was having other issues (e.g. music search not working) and blamed it on the upgrade. At the time I WAS able to use the HTC connection setup to configure the cellular data connection. I finally did a complete wipe on it a couple of weeks ago; I flashed back to the original ROM release and let it spend the next couple of hours updating back to Mango. Everything seemed fine but in the last couple of days I have found the problem has returned. To make matters worse, I can't even seem to download the HTC connection setup app anymore.
I have tried multiple soft resets, battery pulls, booting up without the SIM and then booting up with it, etc. Anyone have any ideas on what is causing this and how to fix it? The phone is pretty useless as a smartphone without a data connection.

Try that rom :] You need to do a RSPL / HSPL thing first;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195647
I suggest downgrading to a lower firmware and then doing so :] Mine does it from time to time aswell, Usually gets fixed when I--
1; get a call
2; turn wifi on or off
3; airplane mode
But even if it doesnt show the network type, It always works

Thanks. 1, 2, and 3 definitely don't fix it. It might be worth going with the custom ROM just so that it's unlocked and saves me from having to pay for the official unlock down the road sometime. One other thing is that around the same time I started getting some screen wonkiness. I would be trying to type something and the keyboard kept minimizing back to the bottom every few characters. Mainly only affected text messages though.
I decided to call AT&T to see if they might be able to force a refresh of the data settings. Since I've called them before on the problem the guy thinks it best to replace the phone. Guess we'll see what happens. May still do the ROM you suggested once I get it though.
Bleeping bleep bleep phone! Someone in a different thread suggested HTC might be able to help with an issue like this. Only solution they gave was a hard reset so I finally did that on I think it was Thurs or Fri. Everything was dandy at first. Fast forward to today and I notice this evening that my phone had lost it's settings again and once more I can't get them back. I also notice that it ate my saved wifi networks again.
I have the refurb device AT&T sent and I suppose I will go ahead and try to use it. I just hate having to set everything up...again. It's really getting old. Could my SIM card be to blame?
Haha. Going to be attending the local WP Insider Circle thing next week. Maybe I'll get lucky and win a new phone.
Hi,
I have problem with my data connectivity on my Sensation for a long time. If I turn on my phone and mobile data (mostly I choose "UMTS only" mode), I have internet connection without any problems, but after some time (usually few days, but if I'm driving and using phone as my navigation it can be hours) phone can't connect to internet, but 3G icon is still there. If I reboot the phone everything comes back to normal. Turning off and on radio/mobile data and switching between 2G and 3G doesn't work, only reboot works.

You're using stock ROM? Try to flash radio module. Maybe it'll help you to solve this problem...

Nope, ARHD 7.2, stock kernel, 11.76A... radio
Hi all,
I don't have the same problem as you but I couldn't find another thread with a similar theme.
When I turn on my mobile internet (O2 UK) it takes a few minutes to turn on, then stays on for about 1 second then off again for about 30 seconds This just keeps repeating and never stays constantly on.
I have no idea what happened or what I've changed.
This has been happening for a couple of months now. It used to work fine all the time everywhere.
I've tried changing the radio and RIL files (they are currently matching according to GetRIL app).
I'm using Viper 1.6.3 with Firmware 3.33, RIL 4.0.0037HMQ(2), Radio 11.76A.3504.00P_11.24A3504.31_M
I've tried different kernels too. Currently using Pacha kernel (not PYD-X)
I have included a logcat if anyone can help me.
Many Thanks In advance.

Hello OP,
Don't worry, you're not going crazy. I have (had) the same problem with ARHD 6.7 and 6.8
When I first started using ARHD 6.6x - I NEVER had this issue, only when I moved to ARHD 6.7 I noticed the same strange issue you have. I couldn't find anything in the forums at the time with similar reports. The only thing that would fix the "no throughput" issue on UMTS was to powercycle or a full reboot or a "hot reboot" when using the advanced power menu - the hot reboot would just reboot the shell - but that was enough to fix the "problem". I even manually upgraded faux123 kernels to the rule out a kernel issue triggering the problem.
I then upgraded to 6.8 when it came out in the hope that would fix but not luck.
So far I am running ARHD 7.2 and not yet (touch wood) seen the issue. However I have taken the chance to do a very clean install and use Titanium Backup to only restore what I really needed, like call logs, SMS/MMS and for most of everything re-entered settings manually.
We shall see how it goes....

That won't help. I also had tried rolling back to different RADIOs and none helped. So it's not a RADIO img issue or a kernel issue. It's something else.
Hello there. First, let me say that I've researched this issue to no end. Searching here, Google, etc... Utilizing all sorts of keyword combinations. I don't think this is something simple/stupid but if it is, I apologize in advance.
I was running a few versions of Team Venom ViperXL up to and including 3.2.6. I seemed to start having this issue with the Viper ROM. (FYI, I do a full wipe on all ROM installs.) Since, I've migrated to CleanROM 6 R2 once it was based on the 3.1.8. I was partially hoping it would fix the issue I'm having, but alas it only slightly changed the issue (for the better).
What is happening:
- WiFi ON, everything working perfectly.
- If I wander out of range (1 mile away, etc) the signal strength of WiFi drops to 1 bar/bubble and never properly disconnects from my network. This also makes the phone refuse to transmit over the AT&T network until I manually turn off WiFi. Turning off WiFi on ViperXL caused the "WiFi" setting line to grey-out and hang on "Turning off" requiring a reboot after which everything works until I again go out of range. On CleanROM, the "turning off" succeeds without hanging, but will not reconnect properly until I either drop into Airplane Mode and back out or reboot the phone.
- (On CleanROM) Turning WiFi back ON will cause it to say "Not in Range" for the home WiFi network even though I'm clearly in-range. Again, the fix for this is either Airplane Mode or a reboot.
If I manually shut off WiFi before leaving the area of my home WiFi network, it will reconnect on manually turning back on without issue. It seems to only lock up when it has to disconnect due to being out of range.
I've also tried installing the Venom WiFi fix patch on both ViperXL and CleanROM, forgetting and re-adding the network, deleting the WiFi config files manually, etc. I'm wondering if this isn't something specific with my router, as it only seems to happen on my home WiFi network. I'm currently running an Asus RT-AC66U. My issue is that I swapped to this router AND changed ROMs right around the same time (hence my confusion on if it's a phone or router issue).
I did find a suggestion of changing the beacon interval of the Asus router, which I will try this evening.
I have seen other reports of portions of the issue I'm having, but not all together like this. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to try?
EDIT: I've also tried various WiFi fix apps from the App Store. They usually correct the issue for the time being, only to have it happen again upon leaving the area of WiFi coverage.
Also, I'm running Bulletproof Kernel v1.1 with S-OFF. I just saw that Bulletproof v1.3 has a WiFi fix. I'll be installing that shortly.
If you want to narrow down if it's the phone or the router, the first thing I would do is make a nandroid backup and then RUU. If it's still happening, it's most likely the router or a hardware problem with the phone.
If it's not still happening then you can try that stuff and I would try flashing different radio's too. Out of curiosity what hboot are you on?

Basically factory HBoot 1.14. I've RUU'd to the latest AT&T one (3.1.8?)

yeah I'd check to see if it's still happening after returning the phone to stock via RUU as a first step. This will be the best way to narrow things down.

Thanks, I'll try it out and report back.
Hi ive posted this in cyanogenmod forums, but maybe someone here experienced similiar issue:
Recently i got myself OnePlus One /China version/. At the moment i have it flashed with CM11 Nightly 01072014.
Everything works fine but the GPS. I am having some odd iggues with it. While it locks correct when im at home (WiFi connection enabled), when i leave home and start using navigation software, be it google maps or anything else, after i go out of reach from Wifi and mobile swaps to Mobile data transfer (HSPDA+) gps loses fix and cant get it locked back up anymore.
When i disable mobile data, it locks back up... so it seems like the issue is connected to mobile data transfer. Its pretty annoying since im using maps that require being 'online' which pretty much forces me to use offline maps.
Anyone ever faced similiar issue? Dont see how it could be connected to my carrier (T-Mobile Poland) since few days back when i was still on my older ACE2, all gps functions on that phone worked fine whilst being on mobile data etc. Only difference might be it wsnt HSPDA+ cappable....
Suggestions? This really is doing my head in, ive been googling around like crazy, trying all kinds of GPS 'fixes' but issue remains and most likely involves that mobile data transfers somehow.
I too am having this problem, what Im going to do is just flash a new radio (baseband) from the stock CM11S rom or maybe another rom and hope for the best. Remember ALWAYS make a back up before you do any mods to your oneplus.
Hi. This issue is driving me crazy. I've been looking for more information but I've only found this thread, a CyanogenMod jira bug (look for issue BACON-115, I can't post links yet), and an issue at Android Open Source Project issue tracker (look for Issue 72311: GPS losing satellites - Nexus 5 - 4.4.3 and 4.4.4)
I first found the jira bug, so I tried the gps.confg settings referenced there, after that the issue was slightly (very little actually) less annoying but the GPS still got lost very frequently, I believe those settings just improved locking/fixing times a bit.
Then I started tinkering with my settings while driving (in stop lights of course, not while actually moving ) and I noticed that as soon as I turned mobile data OFF, the GPS locked immediately and never got lost from work to home (a 30 min drive).
So I started querying Google for things like "GPS lost while mobile data on", after about an hour I got the bug in code.google.com, which suggests it's only happening while 3G data is on, not while 2G. And it is, I can get a constant GPS fix while on 2G. The bug thread hinted about flashing different versions of the radios to find a version that works.
I remembered that with OPO firmware 25R this issue was far less annoying so I went ahead and flashed only the radios from 25R. It was not completely fixed, but my yesterday commute got significantly less GPS signal loss, and when it got loss it took less time to fix again, which I attribute to the gps.conf from the jira bug.
TL;DR
I've experienced this issue with 30O and 33R firmwares and with CM Nightlies (which I'm using right now), but slightly less annoying with 25R. Flashing 25R radios and using the modified gps.conf alleviated the issues a lot but I still get frequent GPS signal lost. Turning off 3G will definitely make GPS fix/lock constantly.
I wonder if there are older radios that could get rid of the issue completely (and what drawbacks using older radios could bring), meanwhile I'm using Tasker to fall back to 2G as soon as I'm connected to my car's bluetooth AND Waze is opened, so that I can get a constant GPS fix/lock while driving.
I think this is an Android 4.4.3/4.4.4 issue, please vote here so that google takes notice of this.
Hi,
my phone lately shows an high battery drain, random reboots and signal losses.
Aside from supersu and adaway everything is stock. last-kmsg shows "modem_err"
A few days ago I updated my phone from MMB29V to MOB30H, right after this I went on holiday. (left country)
While being there everything worked fine.
But right after I comeback home the phone started to act strange (see title).
Anyone an idea what could cause the behaviour?
Maybe the update? And I didn't noticed it in holiday because of my disabled data connection?
I tried:
a full wipe, reflash of stock image
flash of old radio
looked out for wake locks (there are non)
using phone without apps (only stock)
Might flashing old bootloader/kernel help?
Maybe interesting:
My provider (Klarmobil (T-Mobile DE third-party)) tends to switch my network mode between 3G and HSPA,
from what I heard and see this depends on my data usage. (HSPA while surfing, 3G while idling). I have the "feeling"
it disconnects when it tries to switch.
Thanks for your help!
Edit:
Added another set of logfiles, showing a "signal-loss", it got so far to ask for my pin again.
Sadly errors still keep happening. I tried the march build and also a custom kernel, no change :crying:
