Grey H, full 3G and no internet service! - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So as the title says, I'm experiencing times when I have full 3G (I don't live in a HSPA + area) but the H its greyed out. I can make calls and send texts, but can't access any websites. I'm running ginger blur 3.5 but was experiencing this prior to loading it as well. I'm not running any battery saving apps that may be disabling the internet usage. Usually a reboot of the phone will get me service. Any ideas??? Thanks in advance!

This might not help you.. I use a widget that can turn on/off mobile data and sometimes it gets a little screwed up. If I go into settings > data > data manager (I believe) and manually turn it off and back on it sometimes fixes my problem. You could try that instead of rebooting sometimes ..not super helpful advice but ya never know.

Any suggestions are helpful!! I'll be sure to try that the next time it happens! Thanks

Did you configure the APN already? Did you try your SIM card on another phone to discard a problem with your line? Is data enabled in data manager?
Check those. That might be the issue

try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13838602&postcount=5
works perfectly here, no idea why you have to do it though, obviously you need to make sure your apn settings are correct aswell.

Data Connection failed

the other day i was accidentally turned off data connection from the status bar pull down so i turned it back on since i always use it. since then my data connection has been very spotty and 90% of the time when i try to use market or the browser it says data connection unavailable/failed. data works fine with wifi on, but not when im just using network data. anyone have any suggestions?
By the way im running comrom with the TW4 theme
Not on commit rim but I had a similar issue, clear cache and data in every appear that was running, then a quick *228 and a reboot, no problems since. It might work for you as well and if not what did you really lose anyway.

[Q] WiFi & Network Signals turn blue when connected to Google Servers.

Hello,
I was wondering if there was a How-To thread on doing this? Or could someone help me do this? I couldn't find any from my search's.
Current ROM: δ-HyperDroid-Androidmeda-v3.0 (with petsaj's surgeon)
This feature is already there in the Hyperdroid + petsaj surgeon combo I use. The reason I ask on a how-to for this is because, for some reason, custom ROM's that have this particular feature are the only one's I can use to get 3g data connectivity. Otherwise, I always get this irritating "Refreshing SIM data" pop up, which eats up battery, and heats up the back of the phone.
I'm still not a 100% on whether this would be the actual reason, or whether its a an issue with my carrier, but i want to give it a try so i can know for certain.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Arjun.
Im on Revolution ROM, and it has this feature. Try it c:

Thanks. But I'd like to find out how to do it myself; to test and see if this is whats causing issues with 3g data connectivity for me. I think even Simple & Clean v2.x has this, and so do a few others.
But I don't think MIUI ROM's have this (not sure about this again - from the MIUI's I've tried, doesn't seem like they do).
My main concern has to do with 3g.
Thanks again.
Sorry to bump this. I didn't want to create another thread with the same question.
Hopefully someone from Hyperdroid would see this.
It's as simple as changing some png's... Download my surgeon, navigate to /vrtheme/SystemUI.apk and see which ones are blue and which ones are grey.
Thanks petsasj.
Will try it once I'm back from work.

Ok. I was just having a look at the pngs in the Androidmeda 5.2.xx and the pngs in /vrtheme/SystemUI.apk (of your surgeon). Only difference I see is the colours are green in the base while they blue in the surgeon.
I dont think this could be the coz of my 3g issues.
Petsasj: any idea why I am able to use 3g only after flashing your surgeon? Like i said before, if i flash the base ROM (or any ROM for that matter), either of two things will happen:
1. In GSM/WCDMA mode, it'll search for my 3G network -> the 3G icon shows up, and instantly disappears. I am still connected to my 3G network, but there is no data connection. On checking the "Status" in Settings it shows up as Mobile Network->Connecting.
2. In GSM/WCDMA mode, it'll search and connect to my 3G network -> there wont be a 3G data connection. "Status" in Settings says Disconnected.
For both the above instances, this "Refreshing SIM data" pop-up keeps on coming. The phone heats up at the back - battery goes down the drain! Very annoying. 2g works though (with data connectivity).
But if I flash your surgeon (and only your surgeon btw, the other surgeons dont help me with this issue ), everything works! 3G, 2G, switching between the two... !
Would u have any idea as to whats causing this??
Arjun.

Not a big deal but..

I have changed my ##DATA# settings and it might be the cause of this (not sure) but either way, i get a "mobile ip registration response error" notification everytime my 3G connects, doesnt do it on 4G, anyone know how to fix this? Or atleast hide the notification xD gets annoying on road trips or a spotty 4G area (as it would be going off everytime i loose 4G nd connect to 3G) thank you!!

You changed too much information. I started to get the mobile ip registration errors when I changed the DSS information.
I no longer get the errors with just changing the settings in the multimedia field. You should be able to change back your DSS settings if you have altered them. Since you are getting the IP errors it sounds as if you have.
I checked and im almost positive ive only changed multimedia and data profile, does data profile cause this too? Also what is the DSS menu suppose to be set to?
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Shouldnt be anything to change in data profile. The information is pretty much cut and dry, I think even changing the HA's will make themselves revert on a reboot..
Ima post back here tomorrow all the settings i have set in all three of those menus, its 2:30 been on the road for 10/11 hours nd just got home xD

No data connections except for wifi please help

This Galaxy Note is my first Android device ever. I have rooted it and was downloading some apps. Basically following a post of the most important apps to have once rooted. I downloaded Juice Defender and enabled it inside the app on the recommended setting for new users. All the other apps downloaded I have not messed with anything that would alter any part of the phone itself. I wanted to start at a better battery. Now when I leave home and do not have a wifi connection my phone says that the data network is disconnected. I tried to disable JD which did not fix the issure, and then I uninstalled it and rebooted. Still same problem. I'm so new to this I don't know what you might need to know to help me get my old data values back in place from what JD altered. So Please help me get my now useless phone back up and running. Also, please be patient with me and what I'm sure are stupid questions regarding this issue. I'm just trying to learn here.
Thanks,
Open Settings -> Wireless and Network -> Mobile Networks.
Check to make sure 'Use packet data' is on.
If so, open 'Access Point Names', AT&T PTA should be selected.
Make sure that you contact AT&T and have your phone set on their network. It is an LTE phone and it needs a specific data package.

That is exactly why I aborted Juice Defender. Try Greenpower, https://play.google.com/store/apps/...=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsIm9yZy5ncG8uZ3JlZW5wb3dlciJd.
I was having problems with JD as well. My data icons and bars would show but I would have no cellular data. I uninstalled and everything worked fine after. It's weird because I had no cellular data problems with JD on my Inspire.
Anyways I find that you don't really need JD if you're using an app like setcpu or system tuner which puts the phone into deep sleep when not in use.
u can try all those there good tools..check data enable if its on and still no connection .pull sim out and power on without it....turn phone off put sim back in power on to trick the system..reboot ..and see if that works..just make sure u have data enabled first and data on.....before doing this...hope it helps

Mobile IP registration Error?

Has anyone experienced this error, or know why I'd be getting this error. I'm currently running a stock unlocked and rooted, and used the Deblur script. Almost every time I'm roaming I get this error, and have no data connection. I can make phone calls, but no data. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I thought about sbf back to complete stock to see if it keeps happening or not.
Just means an app tried using the web but you weren't connected. No need to restore

But I can't use data though. I was able to do this before, but now for some reason when I roam, It gives me the error. I tried updating profile and prl, which was successful when I was in a sprint area, but when I roam I get the Mobile IP error.
I get this same error, but my setup is alot different. Photon 4g flashed to pageplus (verizon) with voice and sms working but no data atm. Roco rom, unlocked. More info, there is 89 of these errors.

I was also having this issue -- tried updating PRL and profile, and it seems to have fixed the issue, at least for now.

I did this also and no more errors come through, but still no verizon/ ppc data.
Just to ask the obvious, do you have data roaming enabled in the settings?
Sent from my MB855 using XDA
Yep, that's the first the thing I do when I flash a rom, is make sure that the data is working, so I check the roaming data.
Mobile IP Reg. Response Error
Go in to >Settings > Battery and Data >Data Delivery and make sure Background data and Data Enabled are checked.
Under Wireless and Networks select WiFi settings, press Menu and select advaced. Change WiFi sleep policy to NEVER.
Hope this helps and I know it is a bit Obvious, but that Background and Data Enabled located under Battery and Data seems a bit ridiculous to me.
I had this error also. All the settings you mention were checked and double checked and nothing solved the issue. Since I have flashed CNA I have not experienced it in the last 24 hours.
