I'm having an odd issue. I've been running the latest Hyperdrive ROM release on my S3 for about a year now, but I can't stand Touchwiz ROM's so I've tried flashing AOSP ROM's such as CM, AOKP, even Beanstalk. I love all of these ROMs for tons of reasons but I keep running into the same problem, everything works great but I can't receive mobile data. My mobile network state is Disconnected and I have no idea how to fix that. I can text, call, and connect to wifi fine, but no mobile data. I've backed up my EFS but I'm not sure that's connected to the same thing. I have the network set to "CDMA/LTE" (would be more specific but each ROM has it different), but for whatever reason the APN settings are inaccessible. The menu option is clearly there but I cannot open it to ensure I'm using the LTE APN. I decided to give this another go yesterday, and still no dice. However upon restoring my CWM backup of Hyperdrive, I have now lost 4G and am stuck on 3G. My network type now shows eHRPD and while I can access my APN's (I was always able to on Touchwiz ROMs) I can tap on the Verizon LTE APN, but it seems to make absolutely no change to the actual APN. In fact when I reboot it it defaults back to eHRPD all over again.
So, 1. have I somehow screwed myself over? and 2. what am I missing with AOSP based ROMs?
Thanks for any and all help.

I would try flashing a stock ROM such as the one on ScottsROMs.com
The 4.3 stock rooted, OTA disabled, UNlocled boot loader and no Knox.
See if you can get data with that. Firmware for the radio may have gotten messed up, and this would re-write that data (long shot, but worth a try). Another option would be to re-flash the radio maybe.
And now that I think of it, which radio are you on? MF1, ML1, NE1? Because I think I read somewhere that certain ROMs require a certain radio newer than _____ (don't remember which radio).

Thanks for the help. I flashed a 4.3 ROM as you suggested, and no difference. I then chased some threads around and decided to just factory reset it as if I was going to return it. Still nothing, I get 3G, not LTE. I was using MB1 before I flashed an AOSP ROM, at which point I flashed the MF1 firmware and then the ML1 modem. That did nothing to fix my issue. I'm not quite sure what else I can do at this point.

Hmm... ML1 should be new enough.
That's a bizarre issue.
For me, I mainly get 3G. It seems as if either Verizon pulled some LTE towers near me, or my data antenna doesn't have very good contact. Maybe you're having the same issue.
Do you EVER get 4G? Or literally never?

Hello,
Please help if you can! I updated my Nexus S to 2.3.4 the other day, and everything was working fine. Today, the phone at some point lost the ability to connect to my network (Bell Mobility). I was out and about and was turning data off, and might have hit the 2g/3g toggle by accident, and seem to remember reading about that causing problems - though I have no idea if I did for sure (the sun was bright) and am honestly not sure what's wrong EDIT: when I go into wireless & networks\mobile networks\network operators, the phone will only recognize Roger's Wireless (and it was bought at a Telus store!) The UI still works fine, and I can still connect via wifi - just no way to get it to recognize Bell's network
As stated above, everything was working fine this morning - voice, data and sms all good. Here is all the info from my phone:
Android version 2.3.4
Baseband version NO DGSXXKD1
Kernel Version 2.6.35.7-ge383d80 [email protected] #1
Build number GRJ22
The bootloader is unlocked, and I had been running CM7 before flashing the manual 2.3.4. I'm not sure what to do. Tried re-flashing the manual 2.3.4 update.zip, and nothing. I know a very little bit about rooting/flashing (just enough to follow guides), and am wondering whether I need to re-flash a different kernel/radio/rom or something. I did search, and couldn't find anything that outlined my problem exactly (I do apologize if something is out there and I just didn't look hard enough).
Again, the phone was bought new at a Telus store, and found the Bell Mobility network out of the box no problem. Am hoping someone can help!
Thanks so much for reading, and if you are able to help.
Check your APN's to make sure the data info is in there I had to manually enter mine (bought phone from Telus to use on Bell/Sasktel's network) for Sasktel and bob was my uncle
Every upgrade i need to put them back in. No automatic for me, so i would start there
Menu - Settings - Wireless & Network - Mobile Networks - Access Point Names.
If nothing is in there, you need your APN settings. Talk to bell support for the info, and they should be able to help you over the phone (they support android even if they dont sell a Nexus S)
Cheers!
Thanks so much for your response, though I don't think that the APN's are the issue at all; they're still in there and fine. I think that it's the actual radio (or baseband), as the phone will not recognize the bell network, only the Rogers network (and it was bought new at a Telus store!)
I think that I need to re-flash the radio, and maybe the kernel. I searched to try and find the radio image for my phone, but haven't found anything clear enough for me to be comfortable to try - I've read time and again that flashing radios is one of the riskier things to do. I don't think that my phone is bricked (can still boot it up, and all of the ui works and can connect via wifi). Don't want to risk doing more damage.
Thanks again for your response though!
i think i'm having the same problem. i've manually upgraded to 2.3.3 then to 2.3.4. and then i put a sim card in - not used it as a phone before this.
i can get 3-4 white bars lit up but can't connect to any network. the bars turn green when wifi is active, but still can't connect ("can't connect at this time. please try again later" toast appears). not sure if the phone is borked, or if the upgrade wasn't that successful.
I actually have this same issue but using it on at&t in the USA...Really hope it isn't broken cause I have no way to fix it since i'm not in canada
Maybe check if the 2g box is checked in mobile networks. Check your apn settings and if that doesn't help try and flash another radio.

i'm unrooted, and don't intend to root. apn is fine as suggested above, and regardless of 2g checked or unchecked, still no connect
Rogers is the only 2G gsm provider, your phone may be stuck on 2G. If you have the choice, I would go back to 2.3.3 full stock and see if everything then works.

Your best option is to flash back to 2.3.3. Download rom manager from the market and flash clockwork recovery. Once in recovery flash the 2.3.3 .zip file. I saw it somewhere here but i forgot where I saw it. Hope that helps.

Try this http://devsforandroid.com/index.php?board=18.0
I'm NOT SURE if it'll work, but it's worth the try. Make sure to to wipe everything before you flash. I'm not responsible for any damage this may cause. But I hope this helps you out.
If anyone wants to chime in and correct me please do so.

Or if you're not comfortable flashing the stock 2.3.3 rom maybe just try and flash back the xxkb2 radio which I believe was the stock baseband for Rogers, telus, Fido and bell. I have the .zip file for you to try and flash through CWM if you need it. Otherwise you can find it somewhere here aswell.

i'm not looking to root nor use any 'hacks'. i don't trust them.
under the battery, the phone is just a i9020. no letter afterwards.
Flashing a ROM doesn't require root, it requires unlocking the bootloader, which Google officially allows you to do that. You can unlock the bootloader, flash 2.3.3 ROM, then lock it as if it had never been unlocked. Just keep in mind that unlocking resets to factory default and wipes your SD card clean, backup before you do it.
Ahhh yes, I had same thing except with Telus I fixed it once, but the second time I could not get it to work, do this, flash this radio
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044261
it is the stock radio your phone came with, then call up bell and get them to "repush" your sim card... hopefully you will see your network again.

if i unlock to then flash, don't i need a radio package? how do i know which one to use?
also, would i be able to do a full compile of android and flash that?

It depends on which ROM you flash. I flashed the official 2.3.3 ROM, it contains the radio image, it'll flash it as you apply the update.
Do you remember which baseband version it came with out of box? That should give us hint as to which radio applies to your phone. I think there are really only two types of radios used except NS 4G, 850/1900/2100 (i9020A radio) and 900/1700/2100 (i9020T radio). You can ask your service provider or check out their website which band you are running on.
Back to flashing ROM, I just realised you don't even need to unlock the bootloader if you are flashing Google signed files. You should most likely be able to flash a 2.3.3 full ROM, then flash the 2.3.4 update file. But if you find the 2.3.4 full ROM, that's even more convenient. I saw a full ROM on the forum, but I that was for i9023 or i9020. Not too sure, maybe others know.
For the Canadian carriers, as stated before, Rogers is the only 2g (edge) carrier all others (Bell, Telus, Sasktel) are 3g (HSPA). go Settings>Wireless & network settings>mobile networks and ensure "Use only 2g networks" is not selected.
If this does not work flash the KB2 modem, the other modems may lose 850mHz spectrum which could be causing your grief.
Solution!!! (At least this worked for me!) - Didn't have to flash anything
Hey all,
I apologize for not posting this sooner, but found a solution that worked for me, hope it might work for others experiencing the same problem.
**PLEASE keep in mind that though this worked for me, I don't know if it will work for you (maybe it might make things worse for some people). Especially keeping in mind that I DON'T KNOW FOR CERTAIN what originally caused the issue for me, nor what specific factors (rom build, phone model, radio image, etc) might have contributed. As well, I am on the Bell Network. USE ANY OF WHAT'S STATED BELOW AT YOUR OWN RISK. Disclaimer stated, read on...**
In the dialer, I punched in *#*#4636#*#* and then from the menu that popped up, selected Phone Information.
From there, in the Set preferred network type: drop down menu (scroll down a little, you'll see it) I selected GSM/CDMA auto (PRL). **Again, remember that I'm on the Bell Network in Canada. Should you be trying this, these settings might not be for you. Again, AT YOUR OWN RISK**
Then, still from the Phone Information screen, I pressed menu button (the hard menu button on the phone), and then chose the Select Radio Band option. From there, I believe I selected Auto, though I may have selected USA (It's been a couple of days, and I can't remember, I apologize).
After that, went back to the Phone Information menu, and pressed Run Ping Test. It seemed to show all of the necessary (and appropriate for my network) settings as ok, and... everything worked!!! Full network connection as before!
Hope this might help someone else! Keep in mind that I'm not sure what caused the original problem; I do believe I remember pressing the 2g/3g toggle, and also remember reading somewhere that this can cause problems. Specifically, that it stopped peoples phones from going back from 2g to 3g - in my case (Bell Mobility) there is no 2g network to drop down to, so if it got stuck on EDGE mode, it probable looked for the only local carrier with a GM EDGE network, (Rogers) and got stuck there. Not sure, but maybe this is what happened. Any wise folks out there that might be able to confirm/offer insight?
Anyhow, thanks so much for all the responses and offers of help!
Hi,
I recently decided to flash a jeallybean ROM since most of them are getting really great and we don't have any word on the official update. Unfortunatly, I'm now unable to get a data connection on my HOX. It's the rogers version which I unlocked and I'm now using on the Bell network. Before flashing, LTE worked fine with the stock sense ROM, but now I don't have any data at all.
ROMs I've tried :
AOKP, MIUI and CM10.
I've tried to : set the data connection to GSM only, nothing, to LTE only, nothing, to WCDMA only, nothing. I've tried all the APNs I've found (pda.bell.ca, pda2.bell.ca, inet.bell.ca). On AOKP it sometimes said "Error while searching for network". WiFi, texts and calls work fine.
If anyone could help me, it would be really appreaciated. Otherwise I'll just revert to Rogers ROM. Thanks alot!
I cant offer any help, but I'm having a similar issue recently. I was on a nightly build of CM10 (from 10/06/12 I believe). I upgraded to a newer build (from 10/10) and I get no data over cell. I flashed it back and things were fine.

Before flashing jelly bean roms you need to flash a sense rom then do full wipe and install cm10 or aokp..

Every device has its own nuances, as do various ROMs. So I'd advise posting this in the forum specific to your device.
Still no data connection.
I am having the same issue with my AT&T One X phone.
The phone was running 2.20 before it was unlocked/rooted. Installed TWRP, was a noob and forgot to save a backup, fastbooted the boot.img, flashed AOKP and CM10 successfully. With both of these ROMs, I could not get internet to work via cellular connection. I have tried everything with the APNs (even had AT&T help me setup APN settings) and still no mobile data connection. I can still receive/send SMS/calls, use bluetooth and wifi, just no mobile internet.
I'm not entirely sure what to do next. I attempted to go back and flash the UrDroid 4.1 Stock Sense ROM, but after fastbooting it's boot.img and attempting to flash with TWRP, I got a signature verification failure. Got scared and restored back to AOKP (I remember to make a backup this time.)
Thoughts? Sorry for being a noob.
Are you in an LTE area?

I am in a "4G" area (HSPA+) but I am also a hour drive away from LTE. I have tried APNs for both, but AT&T recommended I stick to the LTE APN. AT&T had me go to Settings->More->Mobile Networks->Network Operators and the phone just sat there searching without finding anything. I just did that above operation again and it found AT&T and I selected it. It spins on "Registering on AT&T..." for a few minutes and eventually errors out "Cannot register on this network at this time."
Have you tried switching off LTE by selecting "GSM/WCDMA Auto" in Settings?
I've had data problems on certain ROMs, where turning off LTE got the HSPA+ connection working.
In that case, it was probably a base of build.prop not playing well with AT&T's network. Although I would think the ROMs you mentioned would have these issues worked out at this point (and for some time now).

When I switch to "GSM/WCDMA Auto", it immediately switches itself back to the LTE setting. This is concerning.
I have two questions 1) is my only way to fix this to go back to stock ICS using ODIN? 2) Once i get back to that, what do i do in order to get to a working version of JB? is it as simple as trying another ROM? Is it ok to skip ICS and just flash another version of JB?
Background if you want it....
Followed vincon guide : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1773659
Started with Stock ATT 4.0.4
CWM via odin
baseb: UCLI3
I flashed JB [ROM] [4.1.2] [UCLL3] Stock Debloat to my i727 last night. Everything went seemingly smooth, everything worked with a strange exception being my exchange account wouldn't authenticate.Today my service is off about 95% of the time, then it will come on and ill get a text or two, then it goes off. voice calls dont work at all. LTE data is hit or miss.WiFi works
In phone status under network type its toggling: UTMS:3 to HSPA:11 to HSPAP15 to no service...then it drops everything and service state will say out of service and disconnected.
My IMEI is correct, I confirmed that.
It tried dialing the *#*#XXXX#*#* thing, that just said no connection and ended.
I started to go down the path of looking to flash a new radio, but that just doesn't seem like the answer to me... obviously the risk of me being wrong is high. i did check the MD5 numbers on other radios though and they came back as mismatched, so i did nothing there.
Also i wiped cache 3 times, as well as dalvek
Is there a simple solution that Ive missed or do i need to go to stock via ODIN? What, if anything, did i do wrong>
If you didn't flash corresponding UCLL3 baseband - AFAIK intermittent service is expected.
If you need to flash baseband - flash the latest UXUMA7 baseband.
Well i've actually had the exact same problem, in several variations and on several androids and here's my conclusions:
1 Magnetic storms and grid issues with the carrier. There's not much to do about these, except maybe for a making a tin hat for your phone. But, on a second thought this would also kill the signal
2 If the issue persists for more than a couple of days then the other thing for me was = radios that just didn't work with my carrier or rom. Changing these showed instant results.
I actually had this exact problem but for me it was on the carrier end. I tried every ROM and radio out there to no avail. After about a month and my parents also experiencing the issue, we called the carrier and they had it fixed in about two weeks.

It worked. Thanks again to all.
That's good to hear
Please bare with me since this is the first time having to post for an issue since I usually find an answer on your forums
So here's the situation.
I bought the photon q 4g lte from ebay and it came with the unlocked bootloader.
Needless to say it was with the stock ics and i tried to find a jellybean update because it wasn't taking the ota and ended up going with cyanogen since i had no problems before. However those phones i had before were with sim cards not cdma.
I found out i couldn't update prl or profile manually without having to do something on the pc.
So after searching left and right i found i could use rsl lite (I used 6.1.5) and eventually found the "stock" file from this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2095536&highlight=rsd+lite
I did the stock jellybean, got it to go through the process and it booted up with no errors.
However, when it boots into the os it pops up a force close on omadmclient_sprint_dataservice and eventually also on the process com.android.phone.
I tried putting it in airplane mode to see if the service error would go away but it didn't work for the process part crashing.
I tried re-flashing, deleting cache in recovery, doing a data/factory reset in recovery and the one time i was able to do a data factory reset within the settings menu.
I could not find anyone that said they had a rom that worked with sprint and updating prl within the rom, if anyone knows of one let me know and i will flash it through rsd.
Otherwise does anyone have an idea of what could be happening because googling the omadmclient part did not pull up anything specific and pulling up the process issue for other phones has not helped me either.
Was this a hacked GSM phone, or are you using it as CDMA?
I've never heard of people having FC issues after flashing a FXZ from RSD. Which one did you flash? Android 4.1.2 - Sprint US - 9.8.2Q-122_XT897_FFW-5 (No simlock) ?
If you are on stock, you should be able to update the PRL within the ROM.
I was trying to use it with cdma network through sprint. and yeah that was the file i downloaded, had to remove the getvar to get it working but flashed with no errors after doing that.
As for updating the prl i can barely navigate through the phone, there is no home page loading and the process pop comes up often enough that its hard to go through the settings

Sounds like something went wrong mate. Are you already activated on Sprint? I don't know if that would matter, it might.
I would honestly redownload and redo the RSD process.

I originally tried to activate the phone through cyanogen and then when the rep said he couldnt do it because of the lack of prl to update within the rom we just setup the activation back on the old phone/ That phone is working on the network.
I re-downloaded the file just in case and re-flashed but same problem. The only thing i thought of was maybe updating the radio but since its a stock rom it should work out of the gate. whats also weird is i tried turning wifi on but it didnt work either.
Anychange you know of a rom that works with sprint. I dont care if its stock since i would probably root later again.

Which one are you flashing?
Try another perhaps...? I honestly have never heard of this. It sounds like the phone might be damaged, or the RSD process just did not flash correctly.
I guess I should ask, was the phone modified at all for the GSM SIM slot mod? I wonder if having a non-Sprint SIM in is messing with it... That is just a shot in the dark.

so far the only rom i tried was 10.1 cyanogen and the stock rom for jellybean. However for the stock rom it doesnt let me downgrade to ics with rsd 6.1.5 do you think if i downloaded an old version i could downgrade to a lower stock rom?
Also I honestly had not looked for the cdma roms since most of what i saw was troubleshooting related for this phone but i just saw this rom -AOKP 4.2.2 (Android Open Kang Project) (CDMA&GSM) that you created - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2293892
I re-rooted and installed that one and it looks great, just wondered how you got sprint to activate the phone or if you had done it before changing the rom? Also how would the prl and profile be updated.
Lastly the wifi wasn't turning on this time either, it did work initially when i got the phone so that has me stumped.

To downgrade to ICS, you need to remove some additional lines. See this post for more information on that.
However, you should be able to update the PRL on either stock ROM.
I think I said this before, but I will say it again. You need to do PRL updates, activate the phone, and get EVERYTHING working on stock BEFORE you flash ANY custom ROM. This is just standard practice - you don't want to put the cart before the horse! Get the phone working, then play with custom ROM's.
I recently flashed from stock to 5.01 and since then I get the "No Service" notification when I am in certain LTE coverage areas but the service bar shows 4G almost full bars.
My mobile data setting is set to Global, and if I am in the settings page the "Mobile Data" tab shows "disconnected"
I used a nandroid after a few days to get back to my previous ROM and still had the same problem. So I used an RUU to reflash 4.4.4 stock, still same issue.
I'm no expert but I'm not new to this either. I've rooted and flashed custom rom's since EVO 4G came out.
I know I'm missing something, I just don't have enough technical experience to figure this out.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
I'm in the same boat man. I flashed the 5.0.1, and I have not had LTE since. Just as lost as you are bud. Heres to finding a solution. :^)
I have found that since my post that sometimes if I turn airplane mode on for a minute, then back off I will get a connection, although not always and sometimes not for very long..

just out of curiosity where did you get your 5.0.1 image from?
DH's 5.0.1 LolliGPE, I've used other works of his without issue?
Have any of you flashed stock recovery and selected factory reset from hboot?

I have not, and I should still be on stock recovery from the RUU.
Is that function any different in the hboot vs. a custom recovery like twrp? Sorry I am not doubting you, just want to understand more about what certain processes like this are doing.
THANKS

Stock recovery will set radio settings back to golden config while twrp will not.

I will give it a go when I get off work tonight and let you know how it works out tomorrow.
The LTE area's I am having trouble with are on my commute so no Pandora makes for a quiet ride!
Thanks again!
