Just wondering if there is something special I have to do to enable my data connection after flashing a custom rom. I have rebooted, batt pulled, verified apn settings with t-mobile and even had them reset my data connection. Still nothing. Any help would be appreciated!

Hey, I got a softbrick on my vibrant, reflashed back to stock and everything is working except I get no data connection. No 2g/no 3g, no Data icon at all. Even if I am on wifi I am also unable to download anything from the market place however my datasync / push with e-mail also works.
Any ideas?
Thanks
figured out my APN was empty... all good.
same issue, i don't know how to fix it. Mobile Network state says disconnected and connecting but never connects...
Might help to say I'm using a Galaxy S Continuum
and the only reason I'm posting here is because this is the only topic similar to my issues.

I couldnt figure it out either, so just used Wifi to get myself going...
Turns out 2.1 doesn't support two factor authentication with Google accounts, (at least I couldnt get it to work) so you may need to turn that off too to get going.
Hi
I'm using my i5500 (Cm 7.1/1.3 with hotfix 1, and baseband LUYJPE) as my primary internet connection, using USB tethering. I have an unlimited data plan.
Whilst using utorrent, downloading will be fine for 20 mins or so, then just cut out. Data & tethering are still enabled on g5, and PC apparently still has a connection. But can't actually use net.
So, I disable tethering & re-enable, and it's fine again. So, it has to be a phone issue, right?
Anyone have any more info, or suggestions?
(I've tried this with Froyo, CM7.1 (1.0, and 1.3) and is there with all.)
Problem still exists, still looking for help/ideas.
Also, I've found that a lot of android phones do this, some say because of USB 1 ports, others because of the number of connections...I'm lost...

It sounds like your provider is capping your data session to me... On Bell Mobility in Canada, some customers have found that when using pda.bell.ca as their APN, the session caps out at whatever value, but when using pda2.bell.ca as their APN, the session isn't capped... It may be worth looking into, just for kicks and giggles...
Yeah, that's what I thought originally.
But...
I can restart traffic by disabling & re-enabling tethering. The phones connection stays active during that time, and data picks up again.
Also, I can download as much as I like at a high rate, providing upload isn't much. A HTTP download whizzes by, where as any torrent crashes.

The only other thing that comes to mind is that your provider may be throttling the connection... You could try encrypting the torrent's connections, and using non standard ports...
Edit: found data switch
Settings > Battery & Data Manager > Data Delivery > Uncheck "Data Enabled"

I get force close in wifi settings when scanning wifi networks at school which has wpa enterprise
But I was able to use an external wifi settings app to obtain access to the guest network of the school but can't use it to access the enterprise network due to incompatibility
If you need more info let me know, for now I stick with 3g and 4g
And is there a way to turn off 3G to save battery on this rom? I looked in settings and tried using external app (GoSwitch), to no avail.
Thanks in advance guys
You should be able to disable 3g(data) its called mobile data in most ROMs, never used a locked ROM but its there in stock ROM so it should be somewhere under network settings.
Oh yeah, I know its called mobile data. I believe this specific ROM doesn't have a way to turn it off I think.
Thanks for the input though, anyone else have any ideas?

Hi everyone. I just got a Milestone 3 (Droid 3) from Alltel (the Alltel that was divested from the Verizon buyout), who is actually Atlantic Telecom Network. They are a great local carrier who has the best coverage in my area.
I rooted the phone, installed various wireless tether apps but whenever I use any of them, I instantly lose my 3G data connection along with a message that says "3G data link lost". Sometimes is comes back right after turning the hotspot off and other times I have to reboot. I am sure this is caused by a carrier setting because they want you to pay $20 more/month to enable tethering. Does anyone know anyway around this issue? It never happened with Verizon.
Thanks!
There is an app that avoid's detected called ClockworkMod Tether, it's worth a try.
It doesn't require root either if security is a concern

Thanks but....
I appreciate the help but ClockworkMod Tether is a USB tether solution, not a wireless hotspot. I have never had this happen before on other carriers.

This is happening to me too; nice to know I'm not the only one although it seems to be a rare problem.
OTA update which seemed to run without a hitch, stock recovery, coming from rooted but otherwise stock honeycomb. I have voodoo OTA root keeper, which did it's job.
I'm fairly conservative with the tab, I've not changed any of the default settings since the OTA, I let all my apps redownload after the update and their data was still there; I have TiBU but didn't need to use it, definitely haven't restored any system data or aps.
My tab sees the sim card, I can send texts and get replies, it knows what network it's on, I get occasional notifications but can't actually connect to anything (have tried search, the browser, FB app, gmail app, news app, all time out).
The simm card works fine in my phone, the simm card from my phone which gives me mobile data on my phone doesn't on the tab.
Settings says there's no ip address available - I never checked before the update, don't know if this is normal.
I've not bothered much with customising the tab since I mostly use it for work, can anyone suggest where I might start trying to fix this?
eta:
I checked a number of threads about mobile data and honeycomb - to get to mobile network settings you go
settings > more > mobile network
I wasn't in flight mode, packet data was selected, network mode was on auto.
The fix turned out to be changing the apn - there are 6 offered, I worked my way down the list (I could have phoned and asked, but that usually means being on hold for 30 minutes first), most of them had no network at all, the default one had a network connection but no mobile data, one works properly
(my tab is on Optus, the correct apn turned out to be optus preconnect)
