No 3G with cooked ROMs? - Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development

Hi Guys.
So I was finally able to get a cooked ROM on my Fuze using an older XP machine that I had. But now, after trying both ROMeOS and DCS, I'm not getting any 3G signal. What i do get at times is the hsdpa signal, but i don't actually receive it; none of the data services are working (internet, weather, youtube, etc.). Could someone please tell me how to get 3G on my Fuze?
EDIT: It seems like I am getting the HSDPA signal at times but its very tempermental

anyone have a solution?

In start>settings>phone>band do you have the auto in both drop menus on??
also try start>settings>connections>advanced network> in the HSDPA try to see which option is used. try to use 'enable HSDPA Only' or even disable it completely and see what happens.

had the same issue and this seemed to fix it.
Advanced Config Tool>menu>more settings>Comm manager - Add 3g to comms manager.
Open comms manager and switch 3g off > soft reset > switch 3g on > soft reset
Good luck

thanks ill try that out when i get a chance. what rom were you using?
EDIT: nvm saw it in your sig

did you run the network config wizard after flashing the rom?
it prompts (or detects) your country and operator and configures most things for you.
if it's not part of your cooked rom, look for it as a .cab

yea i ran the config but it still doesnt connect to 3g. I'm trying the suggested solution now

still not working....
I still cant run apps like cellular video and the youtube app. Youtube just wont load the vids, and CV gives me a message that says it's only supported to 3G phones. I really hope theres a solution to this since I really love ROMeOS but I want apps like youtube and CV

haha i give up. I officially ***king hate this. I feel like I spent 300 bucks on a phone that is perfectly engineered and has crap software on it. Im so agitated i can't even think straight. I'm really close to just getting rid of this phone and i dont even know.
Well... felt good to tell someone.

I am having the same problems. I am using an ATT Fuze and I flashed ROMeOS last night and now I cant to connect to the internet or use the youtube app via HSDPa/HSUPA, 3G, or Edge. I can use these applications if I turn on Wi Fi, but if I use cellular internet I get a big red sign that says "ERROR" and then followed by "the remote server refuses to perform the request. This address is not available". It also shows an H on the top bar if anyone was wondering. Any fix for this or just try a different ROM?
Update: I tried a new ROM and same thing. Does anyone have a solution? I am sure us two aren't the only ones with this problem!

I am getting pretty desperate, can anyone help?

same problem here, my area supports hsdpa but with a speedtest i have between 24 and 36kbit

go to start>settings>Connections>Advanced network>GPRS "make sure CHAP authenticaion is selected. that is what ATT network uses. then go to Start>Settings>Connections>Connections> select manage existing connections and then go to the proxy tab. make sure your remove both check marks and you should be good to go.

Wow, thank you HackMimic that worked! I tried everything I could think of and was about to go back to stock ROM just to use 3G, but now I can continue using flashed ROMS. To the original poster of this thread try the above and it should work as I had the exact same symptoms you described and now I am cruising along on HSDPA! Once again thanks HackMimic!

no problem. i had the same issue back in the day when the connection setup app first cam out i noticed that it always seem to set the GPRS Settings to PAP instead of CHAP which is needed for MMS and the net over here in america. also noticed issues with proxy selected. glad i could help.

Yea I tried HackMimic's fix but not directly from you . I was reading on how to configure skyfire and they said to do that, and what ended up happening is all of the sudden the youtube app worked and so did everything else. Regardless, thanks for the solution. I'm a little more amazed everyday by the wealth of knowledge on this forum

Wireless (Mostly) Not Working

Hi all,
Got a problem that I can't seem to find any suggestions on how to fix here on the forums.
My i-mate Jamin's wireless doesn't automatically detect wireless networks, and even when I specify the configuration manually, it won't connect either. So, there is no detection of wireless (the wifi does turn on alright), and the 'wifi on' tower icon appears, but doesn't try and search or connect.
I was starting to think this was a 100% hardware problem, but I found that if I try and create an ad-hoc network with my Jamin, other devices can see it. However, when actually trying to connect to the ad-hoc network, the Jamin still keeps trying to connect unsuccessfully.
This problem existed on WM5 (my original rom) and has still been the same on all WM6.1 roms I've used (ShadoW, iProphet etc).
Any suggestions on a software angle, or what to look for in terms of 'broken' hardware if I were to pull the device apart?
Cheers
try to update the ROM and the SPL, but be carefull
Thanks for the suggestion, but I've done both. I've got the HardSPL on my device, and I've got CloudyFa's WM 6.1 rom (and as I mentioned, I've tried about 3 other WM6 and WM6.1 roms too)..still no luck though.
It does, however, come up with the signal strength icon (like it can almost see the network) if you try and manually configure a network you know exists (eg my home network). It doesn't manage to connect to it though - just comes back and says 'unavailable'.
check if it is encrypted with WPA2. I think that version of cloudyfa is not compatible with that kind of encryption.

Definitely is only WPA here at home. Tried disabling it to no encryption, and likewise it doesn't work at my university (WPA) or at public wifi hotspots (no encryptions) or if you use WEP either. I've tried every setting on my router - and like I've mentioned, tried it in various other locations and routers...
Definitely something wrong with my device..but who knows what it is

Any suggestions as to the best version? I've upgraded from the base one to 2.20.21.
Also, how does the main memory go during this update (can't remember from last time I did it) - does it get erased / should I back things up?
Thanks

Main memory should be fine, nothing is wiped.
As to the best version, I'd suggest trying a few, personally, I think 2.19.21 is the best, but that may just be me and my Prophet...

Yep, main memory was fine. I've upgraded to the latest radio rom on that page, but still no luck.
So I've tried that one, your one was my original one (2.19.21) and my last one (2.20.21). Doesn't seem like it's a fix unfortunately..
Thanks for the help all the same. Anything else I could try?
Have same problem after I installed :touchflo 3d look.

Same problem here
Hey there, as I said befor I had the SAME EXACT PROBLEM (Vodafone S200 initial firmware - flashed several ROMS with no succes on wifi and finally decided to stay with bikertibi's 23102).
I think I somehow came across the solution (or the solution came across me) about the "when I turn on the wifi..."
It does:
1) look like its turned on as the upper icon appears and it says "on" on the display.
2) beeps the green led on the front speaker (or whatever is that)
BUT
It does not:
1) beep the radio signal (two waves) on the "wifi on" icon.
2) Find networks available
warning: my level of knowledge on PDA's is somewhere over the bottom limit so basically my interpretations of the solution will be more of that (interpretations) than it should be. So I beg for someone that knows what he's doing to try it and explain again.
Okay, after searching the unsearchable and MAKING SURE that it was DEF. NOT the USB cable, decided to give it a try to that icon "ADD NEW". That icon appears instead of the available networks, 'cause as I said my prophet wasn't detecting them.
So, I "added" a new one with ad-hoc (that is: tab on "add new", select ad-hoc, put a silly name and say yes to all) and then INSTANTLY and MAGICALLY (yes, Im THAT lamer) it all started to find networks all over the howse.
Other thing that might have been something on the process is that I was having my laptop with the wireless connected. At the first moment I connected the adhoc with the laptop but then tried to connect to another next door network with SUCCEED.
Finally, deleted the new added silly named network and it is still recognizing networks available.
PLEASE, SOMEONE THAT KNOWS ABOUT THIS, EXPLAIN IT WITH CLEAR WORDS!!!!
Hope it helps
Re:
Maybe you should check your network to see anything wrong with it...
There's nothing wrong with the network you guys. I've been having the same problem for over 3 years? Couldn't quite remember.
I STILL have my Qtek s200 with me now. Alive and kickin'. I still have a problem with my wifi. I can connect alright, and browse alright. BUT only if I'm 2 feet near my router. The reception is extremely poor 3 years back, still is extremely poor now. This is not a coincidence. I think something's wrong with our devices. Tried doing everything. cooked, uncooked, stock. original radio, ALL radio. Still the same. Same exact distance, the reception weakens after 2 feet. AND 2 FEET is way to short for WIFI browsing.
To add more that there is nothing wrong with my network at home:
1. got no password
2. I have a old Nintendo DS lite. Works Fine.
3. Got a Wii
4. Got an Old Xperia X1 (not quite old)
5. Wifey's on C905
6. Got a China Iped
7. Using an HTC HD7
8. My OLD MSI Laptop has WIFI connectivity.
9. My Sis got an Aino.
that's basically it, an everyday home WIFI activity connectivity. AS for my Prophet. Still looks black good. but still connects no good. everythng else connects fine though, beaming IR things, bluetoothing things. pretty much normal. All except WIFI.
3 years ago, I thought it was just me.

HSDPA gets stuck

Having intermittent problems with my mobile internet and was wondering if it was the phone, other users or just plain crap signal.
Have anything between 2 to 5 bars here, hsdpa symbol on constantly but for some reason it occasionally gets stuck on the upload arrow and then the data connection freezes and wont come back on til I toggle mobile network or airplane mode.
Phone is running modaco 2.2c and latest radio on T-Mobile UK.
Hi. Been lurking around since I got my Hero, and thought it was about time I signed up to this excellent forum.
I was having exactly the same problem. Didn't know whether it was a problem with the Hero or the network/signal. I noticed that the APN settings on my Hero were different to the t-mobile site. I read around a bit and tried a few combinations of settings and eventually got it sussed.
Go to t-mobile.co.uk
Hover over "Help & Support" at the top and click "Phone Support". Click "Make the most of your mobile" and choose the G2.
Click on "Set up the phone for internet surfing" and enter the details shown there exactly in a new APN on your Hero.
The only change to those details is the password should be "pass".
This is the only APN setting i have tried that doesn't give me the original problem. Now I can browse without the 3g signal getting "stuck"
I'm using an unlocked Hero - completely stock btw.
Hope this helps. Let me know how you get on.
I've been having this very problem. That's good information, I'll give it a try.
Seems to work well. Here's the link.
thanks for pointing me there.
k i altered my settings, will test it thru day see if it improves.
Ooh, seems to be working so far. Seems I owe you a beer. Lol.
After a day or two using this 'fix' I find it the drop still happens sometimes but not as often.

Did you change the password to "pass" ? That is the most important bit.

[Q] Connection Setup O2 Only?

I have an HD2 that I purchased from O2 Ireland. I switched to 3 Ireland about two months ago due to an unlimited data deal. I just changed sim cards and everything worked; phone, data, wifi.
I flashed the latest stock rom 3.14.206.1(04666)WWE that would work with my phone. It's the stock rom for the O2 HD2. Since flashing, I cannot get a data connection. The phone works fine so I know the phone isn't locked to O2, but when I go to Connection Settings, the only choice in the drop down menu is O2!
Is there any way to bypass this so that I can set the phone up automatically to three? Is there perhaps some other work around. Imagine, an unlimited data plan and I can't use it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

First, I gotta ask: You are in Ireland but your flag shows US?
I found some settings here, they are for a different device, but may help:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-315848.html
Search for (its on these forums in several places, I've posted it myself before now, but i'm afk) connectionsetup.cab, or extract one from the unbranded 3,14 rom if you know your way around a kitchen.
It has pretty much all the networks in it. You can uninstal it after its done its thing to save 12 or so meg.
Install it, reboot, it will auto run, uninstal it.

Thanks very much for that. I found an HTC connectionsetup.cab and installed it on my phone for the 3 network Ireland, excellent!
BUT! When I open Opera I just get a white screen, nothing comes up, I can't even get a search page. I tried opening Marketplace and the error message came that it couldn't connect to the server. Any ideas please?
Edit: Problem solved thanks to you both! Since running connectionsetup (samsamuel) I was able to put in the 3 network settings (stevedebi) manually. I've even got the mms settings in and tested. Many thanks to you both! How I love this forum!

[Q] Can't get internet to load?

~So I haven't really seen anyone else with this issue so I don't know how to fix it.
My phone likes to randomly not load things via internet. Mostly happens with ATT Data connections, but sometimes it happens with Wifi as well I believe (hasn't happened with wifi in a long time).
I can try and load a page and it will simply not load a thing for a good while (sometimes hours), then all of a sudden it will load like it's on a 10MB connection.
Happens with the internet browser, facebook, and any internet apps. Really gets annoying when I'm trying to browse the internet
I have tried different APNs to no avail, tried turning wifi on/off, changing all wifi settings, etc.
Anyone got any suggestions? (Maybe I'm just retarded and there's a well-known fix for this... at least I can hope right?)
Thanks
EDIT: It also used to never send MMS until I changed APN's if that makes any difference. Just not sure if its a software/setting issue, or if its hardware that needs to be replaced.
There are two APN settings, one of which is used by MMS. It sounds as if your APN settings might have been wrong at one point. What are your APN settings now?
Are you on a different ROM? Do you use a 3rd party app to disable and enable the data connection (to save power)? I know my app sometimes doesn't turn the data back on, so I have to go in and do it myself.
Is this your first phone with AT&T? If so, where did you transfer form? Did you have a data plan with your previous carrier? Did you buy your phone from Amazon?

My APN settings are the "phone" HSPA and "phone" MMS settings from the large thread in this forum.
The phone isn't even rooted. No different ROM, just a stock phone. No 3rd party apps that disable/enable data.

I've had ATT for a decade or so now. Phone bought and activated in an ATT store, and last phone I had was an iPhone, so whatever data plan that used was what I was previously using. I would assume they changed the plan to reflect the android device (if there is any difference), but I wouldn't really know because it is on our family account.
Anybody got any clue? This is really annoying the **** out of me. Also found out my brothers phone (on same family plan) is doing the same thing.

Maybe download Tweakker from the market; it automatically rewrites APN settings for your phone and carrier. CM7 uses wap.cingular, and I used Tweakker to change it from that. Worked, no probs, loved me long time, yada yada.
Thanks, just downloaded it. We'll see if it makes any difference.
Worked great until just now. Lost internet again. Thanks though.
Any other ideas?
i am on AOKP, not sure if you have the options to do the following in stock but try.
1.do you have the option of deleting APN? delete all...
2. force the phone to look for wireless carriers (takes like 4 minutes).
3. click on At&t to registet on it.
4. reboot and the original apn should be there.
I reset it back to the original APN but I dont expect it to help... I had the problem even before I started messing with the APN. We'll see how it goes though.
Any other suggestions are still welcome.
I have a similar, if not the same problem. I have concluded that it's either a modem/hardware issue or network issue. Every one and a while, I'll have to wait ~20 seconds for the internet. This always happens on AT&T data. Once the connection is made, the green and orange data indicators light up and the page loads just fine. Changing the APN's increases my internet speed by a lot, but does not fix the latency issue.
Someday I'll get around to calling AT&T.

Sounds like the same issue to me.
I keep thinking I should go to the ATT store but I really dont feel like having them do a reset of my phone then send me home without actually fixing anything.
Have you noticed what kind of connection you have? I don't use stock, so I haven't thoroughly tested this there, but I believe I experience the same issue. I'm running CyanogenMod 7, and what I see is that whenever the phone drops to 3G, I don't get data. I can force 2G (Edge), which works, and if I pick up HSPA+, I get data. If I'm in fairly sketchy signal areas (bad parts of buildings, fairly far from towers, etc.), I'll notice it flip-flopping back and forth between 3G and H+, with no data. I've never had an issue with wifi not properly loading anything.
I did try switching back to stock for a couple of hours, and it appeared my issues were more along the lines of what you describe, without actually displaying a flip to 3G when I can't get data...but like I said, I don't use stock on a regular basis.
NINJA EDIT: I'm on my second phone with this issue, after getting a refurb due to a USB port going bad. I've tried flashing multiple modems, and have been able to increase my speed, but have not been able to fix the issue when I drop to 3G.

Im in an area where I constantly get 4G or LTE... I haven't really noticed a correlation between the drops and whether or not its on 4G/LTE. I haven't experienced it on Wifi in a very long time though.
Also, the stock APN seems to magnify the problems greatly. Switched back to the Tweakker APN and it runs much better (although it still happens occasionally)
Had the same issue as you, try my guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576199 it seems to have helped many!
Sent from my AT&T Galaxy S II (I777) Killin' it with Task650's awesome AOKP ROM port!
Thanks but the Tweakker APN seems to have solved the internet issues. Only problem now is that MMS doesn't work with the Tweakker APN. Anyone got any suggestions on that?

GPS not searching for satellite when mobile data is on

Hey everybody
I hope I can get some help from you guys.. I got this issue that I started to get into the running and started to need more of my gps to track my training and Ive noticed this weird behaviour of my gps.. It just wont even search for satellites whenever the 3g is on (you know the alert that says searching for gps).. installed the GPS checker to see if there was no satellites or something but it wont even search for them whenever I have the 3g on.. I found that the GPS works only if I disable the Mobile Data and restart my phone.. So I cant have both at the same time.. the minute I enable the 3g data it stops working and I have all the GPS options checked at the configuration and the wifi 3g assist.. What could be causing this?
Please let me know if some of you guys have some issue like this.. I have JellyBam 9.0.0 cyanogen mod based 10.1 and baseband XXXKI4

If you don't have this issue with a stock ROM, its probably a bug in the Jellybam ROM. Have you done a clean install? Since Jellybam has been banned from XDA, you probably won't get support for that ROM here. Maybe you should try contacting the dev of the ROM on their forum.

There's a number of GPS 'fixes' on here, I suggest you search for the threads containing those fixes & try some of them.
Hi!
I just want to share my workaround having same problem as this. After configuring my gps.conf as i've posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239713&page=77, all went smoothly and fast GPS lock for just about 5 - 15 sec, even on a cloudy or rainy day. Then last Tuesday morning, as soon as the mobile data got connected it cuts the GPS. In short, GPS & mobile data won't run simultaneously. I ran a series of reboot, shutdown, clean up... then as much as i don't want to, i ended up reflashing/reinstalling everything but to no avail! Now, since everything is fresh w/ my S2, but still had same problem. I now zeroed in the problem to how my mobile data connects. I didn't think of this before because everything works perfectly fine. Anyway, this time i changed the Network mode from "WCDMA only" to "GSM only". Finally! it works! problem solved.
So far as of this writing, both the GPS & mobile data connection are working simulteously. Only drawback are: (1) I can't browse the net using the "GSM only" mode because of the bandwidth limitation, but works ok w/ Waze app. (2) If i switched & connected to mobile data using "WCDMA only" mode, i need to switch again to "GSM only" mode & restart the phone in order for the GPS to works again.
I don't know, but i'm thinking if our telco here has something to do why I had this problem. Maybe they change some configuration... I dunno.

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem. Searching forum and the internet without results.
Last week I spent a lot of time with my SGS2. The problem occurs when gps and mobile internet data are used at the same time, but only when the phone use 3G or H+ standard.
When mobile data are transmitted on E/2G there is no problem at all. The issue with gps is that when I drive car and I'm in one location at the city (every day at the same place) the gps icon disappeared and no navigation at all. This is quite big square around 2x2 km. After I leave the area I have to turn off and on the phone and everything works ok, even when mobile data 3G/H+ are transmitted.
So described problem occurs only at the specific area. I don't know what cause the issue. After next researching I discovered, that gps disapeared ONLY WHEN THE PHONE USES UMTS 2100 MHz. In the service menu I mark only UMTS 900 MHz and the gps works very good. This time mobile data 3G/H+ are used simultaneusly with gps and everything is ok.
So the problem is olny when we are connected to BTS at 2100 MHz and only at the specific area. It seems that some kind of 2100 MHz signal intereferences wiht gps circuit maybe. I'm not a proffesionalist, I only suppose that.
Maybe somebody will find the complete solution with that.
My problem is at the cetral of Poland. I tried a lot of firmwares, modem drivers, gps.conf modifications. Nothing. Zero results.

Hmmm... it seems our telco here has something to do w/ my concern. Today, simultaneously my S2's GPS & 3G/H+ are working perfectly fine. I didn't do any reconfiguration w/ my S2, i just tried to switch how my mobile data connects, from "GSM only" to "WCDMA only".
