Every 2.2 ROM I have tried including the official release I have to either reboot or toggle airplane mode to get my voice and text connections to come back on. It happens intermittently, someone will try to call or text me and they can't get through or I find that I can't send a text or make a call. Data does not seem to be affected because they will email me to tell me my phone is out. Anyone else seeing this issue on their Vibrant?

odin back to stock 2.1 or stock 2.2 and then apply a custom rom, it fixed my issue , which seems similar to yours.
I always Odin back to JFD before I flash any ROM. Most recent steps were JFD via Odin, KA6 via Kies. After I got the same problem on the official update, I then used Odin to flash KA7 over top of KA6 hoping the newer leak would fix it. But it happened again yesterday, had to toggle airplane mode to send a text and then make a phone call.
Well I was in the Team Whiskey chatroom and it was suggested that I Odin back to JFD and check the option for Phone EFS Clear as a possible solution. So I did that and then used Kies to get back to KA6. Will let this run for a couple days and see if that fixed it and report back.
There were several warnings about using this checkbox if you wanted to go carrier unlocked at some time in the future, so do not check this box unless you are full aware of any ill effects it may have on your device. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

Hi guys
I recently put Litening Rom 1.5 on my SGS 2.
Prior to this the WiFi was working fine and I believe shortly thereafter (can't be sure). Now though the phone defaults to 3G. Under Settings > Wireless and Network > Wi-Fi settings the Wi-Fi box is unchecked with the word "error" underneath "WiFi". Whenever you try checking it, it says "turning on" for about 10seconds before returning to "error".
Anyone else experienced this or any suggestions, all pointers very much appreciated?
Thank you
flash back your CF-Root and your wifi should be working again...
Will try that when I get back home.
Does this mean though that I can't have Litening 1.5? I've not heard of other people experiencing this. The file I oriinally downloaded had 4 parts. Three were pretty obvious in terms of where to sync with Odin i.e. had CSC in the title, TAR file and one called PIT. However, I presumed I should insert all 4 in the relevant boxes of Odin. Was this wrong?
Thaks for the advise so far.
no you can use litening....your step is correct...just try to flash back your cf-root if u using for rooting.....
btw couple of user have same problem in which after flashing modified rom sometimes the wifi not working....so when they flash back cf-root kernel, wifi works again

+1 for me. reflashing kernel worked fine
Hmmm!
Well the good news is that reflashing the CF Root worked and I got the WiFi back again. The bad news is, that when I put the phone down and picked it up again 20 mins later, it had gone back to it's old bad habits.
Tried reflashing CF Root again but this time no result.
Looking through the phone I'm wondering if it could be either a confliction between system operations or a dodgy app (less likely this one).
The reason I say this is because at present I have to ways of quickly turning Wi-Fi on and off. 1 is the swipe down action from the top of the home screen, which gives the Litening Blue toggling buttons and the other is residing on my 2nd home screen which are the green toggling buttons which were their before Litening. I could be wrong but both with the problem occurring are not illuminated. Attempting turn WiFi on only illuminates one of these temporarily. Therefore just wondering if on is cancelling out the other?
What would you suggest trying next, perhaps Villian Rom incase it's a Litening thing? If not, any other setting I should try adjusting both on the SGS2 or in Odin etc
i believe your issue is down to installing a corrupt rom...why i say corrupt coz you didnt clear the calvik cache, wipe data when flashing the room etc...well my advise is to start everything from fresh..root your phone with CF-Root and boot in CWM mode..follow the basic step
start clearing cache, wipe data etc and install back the custom rom. or you may try back with official rom see if u face similiar issue...
another option is to upgrade / downgrade your baseband modem....i'm using XXKF2 which is the best in my setup in my country, signal more stable and good connectivity compare to KE7...some user in different country prefer KE7.......coz they got issue with KF2
Thanks Gchildz for your continued assistance.
Ref stable baseband modem what would you suggest in my case: I live in the UK but spend much of my working time in Europe, Middle East and former Soviet Republics? I appreciate that residing in one country would be much easier to determine the baseband but as a frequent traveller, is there a baseband that is all things to most of the places mentioned? To be fair, most of the accommodation is in the middle to upper end of the spectrum and therefore they WiFi I'd be using would usually be setup by an independant company with a reasonable budget, rather than a flee pit hotel with a cheap and nasty router.
Follow-up
Further to last, it would seem that I'm really not having much luck with this.....
I reinstalled CF-Root, then flashed to Villain 1.4 and still the Wi-Fi is not working. I even put on top the optional Modem file and again nothing but this darn "Error".
If I could, I would change the original thread title to "Error msg when trying to turn on WiFi" as it would appear to not be peculiar only to Litening now.
BTW Regarding the corrupted ROM I did clear the cache, factory reset etc 100% this time around. I thought I had last time but could be 100% posititve. I'm using Odin v.183, that shouldn't make a difference should it?
[TXT&PIC MSG Solution found - update][Q] need help on mms problem for unlock at&t
I already search the forum for answer so far i read alot of other people have the same problem for the t959 but no actual working solution was posted, but they were old posts. I want to ask is there any way to fix this problem? My phone is a t959 vibrant unlock for AT&T network, I just got this problem a few day ago, I cannot send text message out at all but can only recieve them. I was currently using phiremod 3.0.1 when this happen I get a small triangle with a exclamation mark to the right of the message, I tried powering the phone off then on, but that didn't fix it. I tried deleting the cache and factory reset the phiremod 3.0.1 that didn't work either. Reflash back to 2.1-update using odin3 it did not work, updated to froyo 2.2 and that does not work. I even try flashing 6 other different custom roms and that didnt help either. I just finish reflashing it back to phiremod 3.0.1 hoping that would had work but it didn't. So now this is driving me crazy and I cant figure out what is the problem. Can any one please tell me the solution for this mms problem?
look at #4 post for my solution
I have a vibrant unlocked on at&t. I can still text. I'm just on rooted kb5.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
i did flash it to a couple of roms with kb5 but still didn't work, only 1 solution i can find is by sending the text as multimedia text, by pressing the menu buttom while im text message and choose add cc/bcc. Does any 1 know another solution to this?
My sms/mms solution fix TEXT & PIC MESSAGE FIX
OK so after alot of research, a lot of rom flashing i couldn't fix my vibrant text messaging, but i just figure it out today around roughly a few hours ago.
MY REAL WORKING SOLUTION
For some reason the vibrant is some what defective cause the message center number get earse or something like that. I notice it awhile ago after i flash the vibrant with a custom rom call revamped SS3, look at the bottom of this post for the link of the rom i use and a list of compatible roms for the vibrant t959 3g. What I did was use AIO vibrant toolbox to flash revamped SS3 then open up message by clicking on the icon and press the menu key on the bottom left of your phone and press settings. Now on the settings of message scroll all the way down and click on advance. In advance look for message center and click on it. Delete what ever number is in there, my was 00. Now enter this number in if your AT&T customer +13123149810, make sure you include the + symbol or else the number will not save. press ok to exit and you should/might lose all signal bar. Just reboot your phone and give it a few sec or minute to load then you should be able to text message again + message pictures also picture message takes awhile to send and recieve so just wait a bit. If your not happy with revamped SS3 rom that is ok, you can reflash it back to stock 2.1 eclair or to 2.2 froyo or to any other custom rom, you will still be able to text message and picture message cause the message center info are save in to the phone root dir.
ANOTHER solution is to use a sms/mms app that can let you change the phone number in message center, I dont know any app and if any of you readers do/does please post them up for other users to uses who dont want to flash their phone.
also please bump or tag or what ever to this post to help other vibrant users fix this messaging problem

How did you unlock it though?
I have no network after upgrading to PWGB v2.0b3 from Stock. I have not yet decided to switch back to stock until I figure out a possible reason for fixing this.
I fallowed the instructions correctly. When I try to activate my phone or call anything, It asks me to turn off Airplane mode, but it is already off. ( No matter how many times I enable, and disable it. ) The wifi connection works, and I am able to download apps off the market.
If this is a common issue, please help me resolve it.
Please do not ridicule me for my small intelligence in this area, I have tried google'ing, but could not find possible result.
My question:
How do I fix this issue?
Thank you.
I fixed the issue.
My solution:
I made a mistake when flashing the recovery. In Odin, I did "Phone" instead of "PDA" by mistake. So I went back to stock using this method: I then did everything all over again and flashed the recovery the proper way using "PDA"

Hello I am completely stock and I am on red pocket. I am having trouble sending Pictures, I get a server response error and it wont send. When i receive I get a link through att to open the pic but wont open unless on wifi.... anyone have a fix or ever had this problem?
You need to enter the correct APN for Red Pocket.
Right. Half the APN settings are about mms.
I use the red pocket configurator
I usually use the red pocket configurator from play store and it works flawlessly... I have entered manually and doesnt send I get server response error.. I have reverted to stock G.B everything. and still no go I have flashed every radio on here and still no go.. I have been able to use it before. I flashed a modem off of a skyrocket which had s.t apn which is the same only thing When booted it would freeze.. So i flashed to stock everything.I dont know what else to do unless i jacked it up for good... my next step is flash a rom with a radio and then flash an older radio then go back stock.. any other tips greatly appreciated
Flash the radio you want two times with a reboot in between. These notes can be stubborn sometimes with modems.
I flashed the stock I9305TDVALI6_I9305TTELALI3_TEL rom on my 4G Telstra Galaxy S3.
Rooted with CWM-SuperSU-v0.96
Everything works perfectly. Except after some time (random) when i start a phone call, or receive a phone call, I get no audio at all (no dialtone/voice, etc).
A Restart fixes it straight away, until next time it happens, at random.
Is anyone having this problem, or is it just me?
I have re-flashed, re-rooted.. same thing.
I just tried flashing the Telstra modem.bin posted on here and see if it fixes it. Will see how it goes.
I'm not sure I did it the right way but in Odin i chose PHONE and slected the modem.bin and flashed. Is that correct?
