[Q] lost data connection

First, I'm not too familiar with how ODIN works, so I'm a n00b to Samsung Galaxy S stuff. I'm used to HTC and LG. This is my fiancee's phone.
She has lost data connection. Rebooting, reregistering, turning airplane mode on/off doesn't make it come back. WIFI turns on and all that good stuff.
Here's what's currently running on her phone:
Firmware version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: T959VUVKB5
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9
Build number: FROYO.VUVKB5
Yes she has root. What would I need to do to get this back? If it involves flashing another ROM (been thinking about getting her on Gingerbread) than that's ok I'll just need pointed to a good guide for Galaxy S n00bs.
Thanks in advance for the help.
I'm also not sure if she has clockwork flashed or not. The phone was purchased used and was already rooted.

First go into settings > wireless and networks >mobile networks > and make sure packet data is on, if it is, go into access point names hit the menu key and click reset to default.
Make sure network mode is set to gsm/wcdma (auto mode) if not try switching between the other two options and see if that helps.
If none of that works:
You can try to Odin different modems.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192436
Try the KD1 modem first and see if she can connect.

I tried the settings already. No luck with those. I will read up on ODIN and try flashing those modems. Thanks.
Might just take the plunge and flash Gingerbread for her, but she hates restoring apps and stuff. lol

I tried that modem. Same issue. Any other suggestions? I'm open for any other ideas. Nothing has changed on the phone. No new ROM, no weird apps. Same geographic area.
I'm at a loss right now. I've never had this problem on any of my phones so I've never had to troublshoot/repair something like this before.

Sorry about the late reply. The IMEI shows up normal. It worked perfectly for a few months, and has only been acting up for the past week or so.

Are you sure your APN settings are correct? for some odd reason, I had to manually set the APN's for my carrier.
Try disabling wifi, as it won't get data connection otherwise. Then go to settings, wireless and network, mobile networks and then Access Points Names.
See if the carriers APN are all set correctly. Should be t-mobile's unless it's an unlocked phone with another carrier.

are you sure that the imei's fine? or is it a generic imei?
i know this situation all to well, my efs folder got f***** and i had a back up on my sd card but as luck would have it my sd card was wiped. and ever since then i could never get a signal on the phone.
so make sure its not that issue because honeslty if it is theres not a thing that you can do about it.

The IMEI is correct. It matches up perfectly. Sorry for the really late reply.

So IMEI is correct and data packets are enable?
Do you have a data plan on the phone? Check my.tmobile.com. If you do call tmobile and *****!

Yeah data packets are enabled.
Gotta check those APN's, though. Been looking for what the settings should be.

APN it was!
Thanks! Problem is solved and her phone works fine.

[Q] Radio issues with Nexus S, Hardware problem?

Hi,
My Nexus S is having a strange issue that when turn the phone on it picks up that I'm on Orange UK but from then on it says emergecy calls only or no service but shows signal in the status bar. If I try and call someone I get no mobile network messages but I can get a data connection and use the Internet although very slowy. Strangest thing is that if I put no sim card in the status bar still shows signal.
I've tried different radios and tried both Offical stock 2.3.4 and CM7 7.1.0 but same results, I've also tried turning 3g off but I'm now out of ideas so can anyone give me some tips please?
Thanks

Can you give specifics? Phone model, Baseband version (found in Settings >> About phone). Not all radios are the same and you can end up bricking the phone flashing wrong radio version.

You cant brick your phone flashing the wrong radio....youll just have to have the correct radio as a back up. I flashed every radio for the nexus s and its not bricked.
Anyway, the standard radio the i9020a comes with is the UCKF1 or KB3 as I have heard. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116884 is where you will find the radios. Just flash the correct one. How you will know whats the correct one is it will be stated after the phone model. for example I9020AUCKF1 the A after I9020 is for the carrier ATT and after the thats the radio it came with. just reflash the correct radio through CWM and you should be ok. If not PM and I will help you further

Flashing I9023 radio on I9020 will brick the phone as it may not even boot into recovery, fastboot may not work too. Just a word of caution.

What the next step would be is to try a new sim card. Go to your carrier and ask for a new one. If same results then its the phone and I'll assist you more.

Managed to borrow someones sim card at work today and it was the same result so it does seem to be a hardware problem now.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

Yes. That would seem to me like the problem. I'm sure you restored your phone and completely wiped the SD? Also did you try pulling out the battery while the phone was on wait 30 seconds try turning the phone with out the battery then put the battery back in and turn it on? I'm sure you have done that you seem like a decently tech savvy fellow.
I've called Samsung before and I hate to say it but their repair policy is horrendous. You'll need another phone cause you'll be without yours for 2-4 weeks. They want to send "you your original phone back." Even their battery exchange is the same. You send your bad battery to them. They receive it process it then send you a new one. Motorola and apple have their repair department to be easy and quick which is what the consumer wants. More so apple cause you can go right to the local store and get a new one in 10 minutes. Motorola takes 2 days. Better than Samsung still.
Thats it for my rant! Just wanted to give you a heads up of what you will hear. Hope it all works out.

yea, try flashing a CDMA radio on a GSM phone and see how that works out for you!
edit: actually, this sounds exactly like the ns4g i bought the other day. try making an emergency call and see what happens. really, that's how i fixed mine.

I've had a similar issue in the past. Restoring my EFS made it work again.
But before that issue, I also had another problem where no amount of radio flashing and EFS fiddling would fix it. Sent it to Samsung and it came back with a form with a hand written note saying "BGA failure".
So I imagine this problem is more common than it might seem. *shrugs*

Restoring the EFS would have been one of my first moves but I was given the phone in this state with no backups made.
Just crossing my fingers that Samsung doesn't charge me a king's ransom to repair it.

Mobile Network not available

Hi i traded my phone, and he installed the wrong thing and broke it. I thought i could fix it which i did. Now though when i load it up it has no mobile network. I can connect to wifi. I called atnt and they said my imei was fine. I registered this phone with them when i first bought it, so i dont see how the imei could bad. I think he tried to change the carrier to something else and messed it up. Is there any way i can get my mobile network back? ITs a atnt i727. What should i be looking for to change the carrier to what its suppose to be. The imei is the right one from the back of the battery.

Isnt that for the data? I reset it to default but it didnt help. I cant make phone calls or anything. Is there a setting to tell the phone to connect to at&t or something like that? Or is there any way he broke the hardware? Under the settings about the phone it shows my phone number.

Thanks for trying guys. I have a update I got like one bar last night and it received like 4text and then got none. My girl friends phone is getting service, so does that mean something in the phone is broken

More details on what he did to break it and what you have done to fix my guess is that you need to flash a better working radio
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2

Well when I got it back it was is a mode I haven't seen, kinda like the download mode but it said Odin kies mode. Im not sure what ics he tried to put in it. But I put back in the flash to stock Odin from the site and it loaded back up. Then I saw it didn't have service so I installed Cw recovery and installed sky coke. Which I have now, also tried some kernals but that didn't help ethier.now I have sky coke no service to atnt for calls or text but wifi works. I don't get service even in emergency mode.

Try finding a gingerbread radio FOR THIS PHONE and flash it my guess is that is your issue I don't have links but they exist somewhere in this noob ridden skyrocket forum
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2

Thanks very much, i tried that and it still doesnt work. Weird enough every once and awhile it works, it should like it must of dropped it in water or something, and bricked it on me so i wouldn't realize what was going on. Or am i wrong? Is the thing that receives and transmits cell calls and text able to brake hardware wise?

What I would do is try a new sim card. All the network info is on there. If you did something wrong with roms or whatever, you could fry the sim. I would also make sure to have complete stock and I mean bone stock att rom( no root) placed on it. This will make everything back to factory and a better way to eliminate the problem. Sounds to me you have multiple and nothing meshing together. Search forums to return to stock which most likely would be gb 2.3.6. Good luck.
Oh and make sure you read closely and carefully. Returning to stock can be dangerous if you don't follow the directions step by step and have patience. You have nothing to lose if the phone is already borked. Its worth a try.

I'm having the same exact problem. And unfortunately, it looks like it has something to do with the CM 10.1 itself. As CM 10 works perfectly fine and gets me a signal, CM 10.1 won't be able to get me services.
I don't think there's a fix on this yet.

Need help

I was on Liquidsmooth ROM. Every thing was working fine until I crossed the border to Canada that is when I tried to make a call n I noticed that I had no signal no data. Went into wireless settings and under network mode it was on -home only- tried to change it but it wouldn't stick. Since then I flashed a couple other ROMs no change then I ODINed back to stock factory but still no change. When I'm in USA everything works fine when I cross into Canada I loose signal n data. I think I'm stuck in -home only- mode cause my phone is not switching into roaming. When in mobile networks settings under Roaming it says Not roaming. In Phone Status under Mobile network type it says unknown Service state -out of service-.
I have my phone #
My ERI Verizon is 5
My. IMEI is fine ( the usual #s)

To clarify, Everything was working fine until you flashed LiquidSmooth?
And then when you flashed other ROMs, and back to the stock ROM, you couldn't get services back to normal, which you had prior to flashing other than your stock ROM?
If the above is accurate, after you experienced your issues, did you flash back to the Nandroid you made prior to installing LiquidSmooth?
Or did you Always have issues when going into Canada?

The only thing I can think of is try repro visioning your phone with the dialer code. I can't remember it right now, but you can find it with Google. It may not help at ask, but it's worth a shot. I've heard it does reset your phone so have a backup of any data you want to keep.

Help! Can't get signal/data

Well, last night I decided to simply reboot my nexus 5. That's it.
After it came back up i no longer had a signal or connection. I figured, huh that's weird so i rebooted again to no changed. Not long after the rom I was running Purity, started to boot loop and crash and loop. So i knew something was up.
I noticed my IMEI wasn't showing, so i was even more concerned. I wiped my phone completely, and got a factory image back on it. New recovery, and everything. Fastboot flashed a custom stock 4.4.3 rom, and the new radio, and nothing.
It boots fine, loads fine but cannot get a god damn signal. Just empty. It says when i try to call to turn airplane mode off, but it's off.
My IMEI does now show, just says service state - Radio off, unknown phone number, and disconnected mobile state. Went to T-mobile and they gave me a new SIM and no change.
I'm going to fastboot flash back to stock 4.4.2 and see if any change.
Any suggestions fellas? Could use some help here.

You've done everything I would have recommended. I think it's a hardware failure and you'll have to rma it. Have you checked with your carrier to see if it's anything on their end?

Honestly it appears to me that you're really lacking technical knowledge and moral integrity.
You were given a second phone after you voided the warranty on the first one and rendered it unusable. The first thing you do is void the second one and basically brick it again. It's really lame and I kind'a hope T-Mobile notices it. Sorry mate.

Not here to scold....
Just advice....
Don't do anything to the next one until you read read read....then do some reading. I suggest all relevant stickies. Learn exactly what you are doing. Then read instructions fully and only then......do. ?

Any news?
Hi everyone,
it's been 2 days i don't have signal. I lost it without even rooting/unlocking the bootloader. I called Rogers to know what was the problem but they think its the phone. The problem is that Telus sim card works properly... Band/Radio problem?

Then the rogers sim could be defective, or your APN settings are incorrect/missing. That would be my guess.

Thank you for your response.
Unfortunately, the sim card has been tested(works fine on a old blackberry) and another rogers sim card has been tested and doesnt work either.
At least, I know that a telus sim card works fine.

Are you saying telus does work but Rogers doesn't? Check your apn then for Rogers.

Honestly it appears to me that you're really lacking technical knowledge and moral integrity.
You were given a second phone after you voided the warranty on the first one and rendered it unusable. The first thing you do is void the second one and basically brick it again. It's really lame and I kind'a hope T-Mobile notices it. Sorry mate.

honestly, i don't lack any technical knowledge.
i followed the stickies here to the letter. it's a refurbished unit that t-mobile said was defective at the store.
i read, and read, and read some more, and understand it all now, i have everything down to the core, i bookmarked every important thread relevant here.
i hate people like you that assume I have no integrity or knowledge, i never caused the 1st one to fail, it just happened. the 2nd wasn't my fault either it just failed out of the box.
