I recently flashed to Bionix 1.5 OC/UV NO VOODOO from JAC's 1.2 OC Kernal, Deodexed 1.2, and the init.d fix. Now my 3G doesn't work unless I boot into Safe Mode. I flashed back to stock because I couldn't get my contacts to import on the Bionix ROM. I have reflashed stock a few times. The only way my 3G works is if I boot into safe mode. Do I have a virus or is something messed up? How do I proceed to fix this? I've done a lot of flashing and messing with my phone but I've never broken 3G before. Internet or anything that requires internet access doesn't work unless I'm on WiFi. I booted into safe mode after talking to the Tmobile service rep and internet worked fine until I rebooted.
Regards,
Brian
Stupid question, but have you checked under settings: wireless and networks: mobile networks: network mode. Make sure WCDMA is selected.
FIXED, something about Internet 2 was latching to my device and making 3G non-functional. Some sort of help ticket and 5 phone calls later it is resolved.

Hello,
Right to start my story.
I updated my phone through KIES up to the latest firmware.
Baseband - XXLPW
kernel : XWLPD
Android : 4.0.3
Worked fine. Figured I wanted root back. Flashed CF-root XX-NEE-LPD v.5.5 Kernel onto it from chainfires topic. Everything seemed to work fine except mobile internet. Wifi works fine, but it wont for the love of it, connect to mobile internet. The icon is just not there and everything says its not connected when Wifi is turned off.
So i flashed the Stock Kernel back to it from the Stock kernel / firmware thread.
At this point it still won't connect to Mobile Internet. However Wifi works fine. Which is great and all, but I really would like to use the internet in non wifi able areas. Like work.
So I flashed the complete XEN Stock package (mine is unbranded) for the netherlands. and Still no Mobile internet.
I added the access points for Rabo Mobiel each time with every setting from there website. But it wont connect. Data transfer mode is turned on so that is not the issue.
What could be causing this issue? and How do I fix it?

Try flashing just the modem again or flash another modem.
I think I have isolated the issue. I went and took a gamble and flashed an old official Gingerbread Firmware I still had stored away on the pc.
When I went back in to add my phone providers internet settings etc, it had 3 options and connection type. Internet, Internet+MMS and just MMS. I noticed my ICS earlier did not have those options and just had a blank space where one could type.
So No I am going to upgrade back to ICS using Kies Once again, if it is still a blank space one can fill in that clearly its an issue with the XEN Samsung ICS firmware. In that case ill just mod CM9 on it and see if I can get it to work in that. If not...back to gingerbread I go
Well I found out how to fix it -.-
Appearently with ICS comes a new APN setting in which the type of accespoint is no longer Just Internet, MMS or a Internet + MMS.
To get it to connect to the internet one has to type in default instead.
Oh well. This can be locked.

Hello
I recently flash and installed CM9 on my XU. Everything is fine exept 3G that do not always work.
I explain : if 3G work, and I active Wifi for some hours, when i will deactive Wifi the 3G will not come back, whatever I do (change APN, re active data, etc.) BUT if I reboot my phone, 3G will work for sure, until a stay with some Wifi or deactivate 3G for a while.
I don't know what it is about, I noticed that I have Baseband "UNKNOWN", I tried to flash it (actualy i'm pretty sure I do with a stock firmware), and still UNKNOWN.
If someone have a solution, thank in advance

I think its a known issue, just wait for a fix.
I've bought a Samsung SGH-I717 locked with Rogers that's was working perfectly with my Koodo sim on LTE. Here's what happened. I was doing all right, starting by unlocking my phone (First success!). Rooting my phone (Second success!!). Installed CWR (Third success!!!) Why stopping there? I wanted to install LiquidSmooth JB. So, I've started the installation following every steps to the letter. Restart the phone... Hello? No more phone. Just got a nice brick...:crying: So, as a humble guy, I sent it to an unbricker. Don't plan to brick it again so to pay for the JTAG won't have been cost wise. I got my phone back (less 85$ ) but...with the AT&T rom (4.0.4). My problem is that my data isn't working anymore. The WIFI works fine but I won't see the LTE logo next to the WIFI one and as soon as I close the WIFI, no more data. I've tried the plain reflash from Kies. It worked, for the flash, but didn't resolved my data connection issue. I've turned on every things in the Wireless settings, it's not from there, I'm sure. Packet Data and roaming are checked. So, what can be my problem? Just to be sure, do I have to use AT&T rom from now on? No more canadian stuff? Thanks from a desperate guy...
You can install CWR and flash Canadian ROM. The ROM will be already rooted. That liquidsmooth ROM broke lots of phones. The ROM was actually for an S3.
It's worst now. :crying::crying::crying: Since the phone was unrooted, I want to root it again. I've followed this steps : droidgator.com/root-att-galaxy-note-sgh-i717-running-android-4-0 and now... It will only boot up to the Samsung logo. I can at least access the download mode. I'm so [email protected][email protected]$ tired of this.
This has never happened before. Only recently it started happening and is killing my battery. Voice roaming is stuck on it seems like and I have bars on my status bar even though I don't have a SIM in it and don't plan on putting one in. Does anyone know how to disable voice roaming as I can't seem to find ANY way? Cheers!
Update: More Info and screenshot.
Added a screenshot or those who may be able to help :/
Hey Wem I got stuck in voice roaming when I flashed the new codefire x rom. I had no idea why and verizon did not help. I flashed back and forth between Nos sense 5 and slim and finally 1 time I flashed the NOS rom I got out of roaming. I cant tell u exactly why or what I did to fix it. Sorry I cant be more specific but I don't know.

I actually think I might have fixed it! If you enable LTE/CDMA/GSM/EvDo and force RUIM and SIM it will disable it, but you have to force the RUIM and SIM. Sadly this is the most you cna disable. As far as I know without airplane mode you can't disable the antenna. PNR is really annoying
Flashed CWM. Couldn't connect to anything. Restored back to Viper. Stuck with Voice roaming.
I tried everything and I cannot get rid of the voice roaming triangle. Data wont work.
I factory resetted, performed an RUU
I am totally at a lose.
Any help please
UPDATE: Fixed
Re-flashed Cyanogenmod, completed setup and performed above steps.
Wiped, factory reset and flashed viper. All is well!
I have a weird situation. My Mobile Data quit working after installing the KitKat update. My DNA is S-off and rooted and has been flashed to Straight Talk and uses Verizon towers in CDMA mode. I did this because Verizon has the best coverage in my area. I also work a lot in Mexico and I recently got this DNA so I could get a TelCel SIM card and use the phone in GSM mode when I'm at work. I was running 4.2.2 prior to the update. Since I was unable to take the OTA update, I flashed the stock firmware and ROM from Santod040 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2560010). After the updates my phone says Mobile Data is Disconnected. It is still showing CDMA mode and I am able to make and receive phone calls normally, just no internet. Anyone have any idea what I need to do to get Mobile Data working?
Do you have "turn off mobile data after long periods of inactivity" enabled? I tried that and lost data, disabled and data came back.

I did have that enabled prior to the update and never had any problems losing data. Since the update I have tried it on and off with no difference. I have also tried turning mobile data and airplane mode on and off with no change.
Another thing that is different since the update is that now when I turn my phone on, I get a message that pops up saying that there is no SIM card detected and that a SIM is required for the phone to operate.

Try putting a layer of clear tape on the backside of the sim card to see if it helps. If it does call HTC , they will send a new sim card tray. Known problem with this device. Also flash the latest radio.

I flashed the latest firmware that included the radio when I flashed the ROM. As far as the SIM tray goes, I don't use a SIM card, I am operating the phone in CDMA mode. I didn't start getting the SIM card message until I flashed the KitKat ROM.

As I said before, my phone has been flashed to Straight Talk's CDMA network so I don't require a SIM. I hadn't been able to find a fix to the Mobile Data problem so I tried calling the OTA number to reprogram the phone to hopefully fix any settings that might be messed up. I had been able to make calls without any issues, except strangely it kept telling me that the phone required a SIM card to operate only when I tried the OTA number. I decided to spend $7 on a Straight Talk SIM card thinking that it would see the SIM card and allow me to call the OTA number. I popped in the SIM card and Mobile Data immediately started working. I never called the OTA number or did anything to activate the SIM. Weird!!!
I have Verizon and I've always had my SIM card. I have no issues calling or getting calls/texts. Just mobile data. It Also seems really slow. I'm used to at minimum 10mb down 5mb up. I'm lucky if I get 10% of that now. That is if I can connect. I had to reload this page 3 times to get it to work.
Ok my phone is beyond f*cked up. I've tried going back to viper 1.3.5 I've flashed recovery and hboot and radio every which way but I can't get my data to work. When it does work I compared it to my wife's dl speed. Mine is 1.6 mb down. 1.2mb up. Wife's gs4 24mb down 22mb up. Tried multiple times same each time. Even on WiFi. Mines 3mb down 1.5mb up. Wife's 26mb down 16mb up. I'm back on viper 3.5.0 sense 5.5 because it seems to actually work occasionally. I've also went completely stock and still having same issue. Any help appreciated.
No one knows how to fix this? I've wiped everything and did a clean flash like I always do to sense 5 stock via ruu. Flashed twrp 6 beta. Then fastboot flashed hboot 4.09 and radio 4.09 and then sjdeloaded nusensesix. Still have horrible/nonexistent data and horrible WiFi speeds. Is there no way to fix this? Do I have to smash my phone and pay $100 to get it replaced? I'd rather not. I'm willing to donate to developers if you can he'll me fix this. I don't do dirty flashes ever. Always clean. Idk how to md5 check but dl and flashing multiple times I doubt that's the issue. I've tried fixing permissions. I've gone completely stock and still have same issue. Only sense 5 stock since I can't find sense 4stock. ive tried viper 1.3.5 3.5.0 4.1.0 and nusensesix. Same all around. Any help appreciated.
Could be your radio partitions are courpted. Read up in this link to reset the partitions. Just make sure you back up your important data as this requires a factory reset, with stock recovery, which wipes the device.

You may have to read back a few pages to get an understanding. Anyway just follow santod40 instructions and you should be fine.

Bringing this back to the Q/A thread so as not to flood the other thread with questions. When you say you swapped SIM cards, did you swap just the card or both the card and tray. Try swapping both card and tray from your wife's phone to yours and see what happens. If it's the same results then most likely your phone is the culprit, if you get good data it's the SIM tray and you can order another one.
ok ive tried RUU again using the exe program and running as administrator. it keeps stopping at 6%(checking header..............) it wont go anymore. i already relocked the device, the thread is closed so i cant post in it...

Been having this problem for a bit. Just removed SIM, blew out with compressed air, cleaned SIM and reinstalled. If it happens again I will try the clear packing tape on the back of the SIM.
