Hey guys, running Das bamf 1.4
I dialed ##778 edit mode and all that. clicked enabled I did that last time but now I can't go 3g I pulled out the battery complete restart all apps. And yeah any help? I'm running das bamf 1.4 stock kenernal (I spelled it wrong I know, doesn't matter u know what i mean)
-THUNDERBOLTS ARE GO!!
I am having the same problem right now. I was on BAMF 1.4 and it was running great. I flashed Tesla and I could not get on 4gLTE. I restored back to BAMF and still no 4g. I might go back to stock and see if that fixes the problem.
Try wiping everything and then reflash the rom. And when i say everything i mean cache, dalvnik cache, phone data, etc.
I know i know, what I just did was go to settings SD and storage and did a software rest. Now it works
I did the factory reset 3 times. I also wiped Dalvnik, and battery stats 3 times. I finally just unrooted and went back to stock. That fixed it. I just rooted again and installed Tesla Coil without any problems.
Main troubleshooting steps:
Battery cover all the way on? You'd be surprised on how common that issue is.
Is there network issues within your network? There have been here in NJ.
Have you tried a battery pull? It's amazing what that can fix.
Is the 3G signal too weak? It could say something like -83dB but still, no 3G for me sometimes.
The list of things to try goes on and on. I can't blame a ROM for something that could more than likely be user error or network issues.

im in Jersey too...do u know the specific problems?
i get what i guess u can call spotty 3g...sometimes go to do something in app that requires data and nothing happens for a while then 3g shows up..sometimes I initiate browser and that makes it connect to 3g
For some reason my phone was in LTE MODE. I switched it auto prl. In 3g back.

Is anyone else having major data drops? Mine is happening like 3x a day now! Very annoying. It has nothing to do with airplane mode. All of a sudden I will see my 3G signal leave, then there's a small x near my status bars then the x will go away but the 3G signal will not come back unless I reboot. When I reboot, my battery level drops all the way to where I need to connect my charger to keep it on.
This started happening about 5 days ago. Never an issue before that. Started happening after I flashed Trigger v1.5 rom. Went back to Bionix V and it's still happening. Wiped, Wiped, reflashed, wiped, wiped reflashed...still an issue.
Any help is appreciated!

Its probably the modem you are using. Ka7 & ka6 both did that with me....I went back to ka5 and haven't had that problem since. I always had to press the pwr button and toggle airplane mode on then off and that usually fixed it. Seemed to only happen when I loose signal and regain.
You will have more luck with this in Q and A. developers do not like seeing cries for help in the development section.

it might have been a problem inthe area you are in. call the isp
Devs you can move this if you wish. Sorry about that, but I am just really pissed right now. Someone else mentioned that it may be the sim card. It's happening like every hour now.
BTW, this just started happening about a week ago. NEVER had a problem with data connection prior.
Thanks for the tips

I happen to think its the weather.
BUT, who am i to judge? Yeah?
Try KB1. I never had problems when i went to KB1 when Scrizz uploaded it. And since we have all this weather snow ice and artic chill, it is holding steady for me. Or KA6 was good. It all depends where you live. Some say KA5, others this...
Experiment. Go to scrizz's thread and download all of the 2.2 Modem's he's got and flash. Remember, flashing the modem, let it SIT for about 10 to 20 mins (I do up to half hour since I don't mind the wait), then do a reboot afterwards. NEVER PLAY WITH THE PHONE WHEN YOU'VE FLASHED IT. LET IT SIT AND BUG OUT THE PROBS ON IT'S OWN!
I used to work for Tmo Tech Care and without doing troubleshooting id say try a SIM card swap n test the new one in your phone.
Especially if you don't have a new UICC Sim card. But even if you do I had similar problem and a new SIM resolved my issues.

Make sure you have the newest sim card available for your phone.

I thought I was the only one getting this problem but my 3G is VERY very unstable right now..

Well Tmo is shipping me out a new phone and battery. At least I will have a fresh device to root!
I'm currently using the KA5 modem and it seems to help, but it seems like after 3-5 min of browsing the web, the phone shuts off and when I turn back on my battery is at 1-3%, even being fully charged before it shut off. Strange things are going on here. I'm glad they are sending me a new phone.
So I got my Thunderbolt a while ago and finally decided to root it. I first flashed the CM7 ROM and really liked it except for the fact that I couldn't get the GPS to work. I would really like that feature so I decided to try a different ROM. I flashed the BAMF 3.0 stripped ROM and really liked it, but I couldn't get the data to work. I tried installing the MR2 and MR2.5 radios and nothing seemed to fix it. Ended up installing Liquid Gingersense and still no data. Am I doing something wrong on whole or does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
Did you happen to take out the battery during the process of switching things around? The battery cover not being completely snapped in with cause the problem with data. I also hear ppl say that if they go into the LTE settings and switching the network type to something else like LTE mode and then back to CDMA + LTE/EvDo auto fixes the problem.
I guess I did end up pulling the battery a couple times through the whole process but I think I've got the cover back on all the way. Why would this cause a problem? Is part of an antenna or something on the cover?
Also I have tried multiple times switching to all the different options between CDMA auto, CDMA only, EvDo only, CDMA + LTE/EvDo auto and LTE mode and I never get anything better than cell service. Never any data.
Yea the battery cover completes a connection for the antenna used for data. Its the weirdest thing but its a common cause for data loss with people.
Hmmm, crazy, I do see it now. You know that may have been part of my problem last night. There was a point that I had the battery cover off for a while I guess. But wouldn't it be fixed as soon as I put the cover back on? I'm still not getting anything now?
Doing a restart after replacing the cover might speed up the phone finding a data signal again but if that doesnt work it might not be the issue. I looked at the Gingersense's page and notice that the radio he recommends is the official 2.0 radio which is the newest one we have. I dont know that not having that would cause a problem but you could give flashing that a shot to see if it gets you data.
Switched from Unnamed V1.3 to this ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1353513.
Everything is great on it except for my wifi going out every 2-3 minutes then coming back. I even re flashed it twice and it still is doing it. What could be causing this issue? I looked through the entire thread and no one else is complaining about it. I'm going to have to go back to UNnamed for a bit in the meanwhile.
and all I did was install the Rom, no themes.
Thank you.
Similar issue on wifes bone stock phone 2 days after receiving. Would connect to router fine, but drop internet every 2 to 3 minutes. Exchanged it.
My Phone (bone stock) lasted 27 days before the internet stopped connecting. Again router would connect fine. I did extensive net searching for the issue and found that turning the "Airplane" mode on and off would allow it to connect briefly.
Exchanged it.
"Expert" guesses blame either the motherboard or GB 2.3.4. Most people I read about had the issue after upgrading to 2.3.4.
I found the problem will get worse untill you cannot connect to the internet at all unless you use Data.
Possible fix
I had the same issue. My data connection on wifi would constantly stop working until I went in and out of airplane mode. I went into recovery and cleared the cache and it seems to have fixed it (at least for now). Been running fine for a day.
Clearing the cache can help many times. Best to wipe it before and after any flash, just to make sure.
Usually it's not needed to go back to 100% stock to flash a new rom. But if you're having issues, try it out. Make sure to wipe everything you can in recovery and on the phone (backup your files).
Again, not saying that it's a 'necessary' step, but it will rule out most possible user issues.

That's not rooted stock, that's a leak.
A leak which happens to be known to have wifi issues with custom kernels, shoman94 thought he fixed them but maybe he didn't.
When mine was acting up I was unrooted on stock. Clearing the cache appeared to have fixed it.

Are you saying you were on unNamed and it worked fine? Did you go back to unNamed and its fine again?

Yes sir. Was on unNamed before worked fine. Switched back to it after trying the leaked 2.3.6. out and the wifi worked fine again.

Weird... I'm Using it just fine.
I was having WIFI issues at home when stock and rooted running Unnamed. The phone wouldnt stay connected for more than a couple minutes then i would have to enter and exit Airplane mode to get it to reconnect. I decided to buy a different router to see if that made a difference and this solved my problem. I had a Belkin N band which was replaced by a Netgear N600. Now i have better range and it stays connected all the time. I know this doesnt sound like the issue you had but I figured I would post in case anyone else reads this thread and is having issues.

The other day actually with the 2.3.6. leak I did get around to testing with another router(someone elses in the area apparently). My phone never lost connection once with it. But, when I switched back to using the router in my home, my connection wouldn't last no more than 2 minutes before going out then reappearing.
You had the same problems with UnNamed as I did with the 2.3.6 leak.
I've been running UnNamed practically for a while now and haven't had a single problem with the wifi.
That's odd.
As it says in the post, my Photon's 3G and Wifi stay on simultaneously. There is no handshake being done to settle which one is supplying the current stream of data and I can't figure it out. Sometimes the only way to settle things to get it to work right is to either turn off Wifi to let it settle to 3G, or turn off mobile data to let it settle to Wifi. I get between 2 and 4 bars here.
I've tried doing a factory restore, wiping internal and application storage... but when I got back to the home screen, all my settings were still the same including the desktop background, ringtones and a few other settings. The applications obviously were gone.
I then tried SBFing to 154_5 but I could see the icons doing it again before I even tried to activate. I had planned to let it just update to 198_6 OTA and hopefully fix the problem in the process, but I just came from that so I don't see it fixing it this time.
I'm in the process of SBF'ing 198_7 since I hear it has a 'data fix'.
Anyone have similar issues or resolve?
I once had a problem where 3G turned off when my wifi came up, then never came back on. I had to factory restore it. As for your hand off issue, I've never had that particular case happen. If you're going to stay stock I'd definitely try 198_7. Why not play with CM7 thought? I've been waiting for it to stabilize a bit, finally jumped in with the 1/26/12 build and it has been working awesome for me.

I can't find a raw CM7 build. The only ones I'm finding are people's weird ROM's of it...
In all actuality you shouldn't have to touch anything. I personally leave 4G and wifi on all the time. If the phone can't get a WiMAX signal then it automatically switches to 3G or roaming. The photon automatically switches between 3G and 4G as necessary.

Yes, well it's supposed to anyway. Mine doesn't. It does multiple simultaneously.
i have seen this many times on my mopho. also when im on stock and try to turn on wifi its say error and stays like that unless i reboot about 4 times
Fix for Wifi
Sorry to ask about this, but is there a fix for the wifi connection for unlocked photon? I've been looking for hours and I'm coming from the nexus s 4g so I've had it easy. I'm on cm 7.2 and needs some sleep. Thanks for tolerating my noobness.

Hi guys I'm a newly registered user but by no means new to the site. I'm having trouble with my Thunderbolt's Wifi getting hung up on "Wifi Turning On".
To give you a background, I was using Licquid ICS MR2 when this all started. It ran flawlessly since MR2 came out and I flashed it. I tried fixing permissions, that didn't work. I've tried multiple radios to see if that would help, that didn't work. I formatted data and wiped dalvik and cache using ext4. Installed MR2 over again, still the same. I followed the same process and upgraded to MR3, still the same. I also tried ICY-S thinking maybe that version of the ROM was causing it. Still doesn't work. So i'm back to MR3 at this point. I still get 3G and everything else seems to work great.
The only thing that I've noticed that has been different is recently I started receiving 4G service in my area (small town). I've tried turning data off, tried turning LTE off. All with no luck.
Is there a chance that my wifi adapter could be damaged or does this sound like more of a software issue? Any help would be great.
Thanks
Pat
Yeah I have this problem usually after a while it does turn on but I think it's a bug in the leaked ICS build just wait for the rooted OTA to be posted and that'll probably fix it.

Its a new problem though for me. It always turned off and on when I asked it to. The normal data problem where you have to turn wifi off and on again always happened to me but I knew how to handle that. This just started happening, I guess I'm not understanding how all of a sudden this just starts happening. I hope that rooted OTA comes quick.

Tried the radio that santod posted. It gets me 1X that's it, but its pretty fast so there's no way its only 1X. But that didn't help the wifi cause any.
