[Q] Data not working on 2.3.4 Tried everything don't know what to do. - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Alright I have unlocked my bootloader flashed cwm recovery, flashed 2.3.4, flashed Navalynt's Mod, rooted my phone and data does not work.
I have tried restoring the apn and rebooting ~not working.
I have tried readding the apns from here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054164 ~not working
Followed the directions including flashing the new radio here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1142835 ~not working
Does anybody have any ideas or maybe a forum thread I may have missed.
I really like the new version and sofar have no problems other then this data problem but unfortunately this data problem is a deal breaker for me so I guess If I cant get it working gonna have to downgrade.
Anyways I hope somebody knows what I need to do.
In the mean time I'm gonna go ahead and start over and try again.
Thanks in advanced!

i have had some weird issues, i found that resetting apn to defaults and flashing the new radio while on 2.3.4 helped my data situation, now when i first came over to the new rom, i backup up my apn list, but it shouldnt matter, have you gone through and manually put in the settings and rebooted

I figured out what the problem was. I flashed the experimental version of Navalynt's Mod. When I started over with the process I noticed that the file names didn't match up. After flashing the right one it works like a charm.
Thanks anyway for the speedy response.

Got hit with this too. Tried every which way to get APN's working. Set defaults, choose one over the other, manual vs auto, and even APNDroid.
Reflashing 1.83 SBF now and going to try OTA 4.5.47 before anything else. Like most other Moto users I'd rather have a vanilla experience and/or CM7. At least I enjoy taking proper ownership of my hardware

Data *only* with stock rom?!

Hi,
I'm with Telus, and been running custom roms for a while now, without any problems... until now.
To make a long story short, I was stupid enough to let the Sprint customization run on the latest stock rom; from then on, I couldn't get any data connection from any custom rom I tried. All in all, a pretty common problem.
So, in order to fix the Sprint customization, I re-flashed the latest stock Telus rom, and that went great. Re-locked the phone, and re-flashed a custom rom (dcd 3.2.x, everytime with the Telus carrier cab of course) believing that all would be working good now. But, I still couldn't get a data connection.
I flashed back the stock rom, and tested there if I could get the connection; lo & behold, the data connection actually works with the stock rom! I've done that pattern a couple times now, and everytime I flash a custom rom, I can't get data to work, even tough it seems to work all right when using the stock rom.
I never seen references of that problem when data only works with the stock rom; any idea what I can do to repair the data connection for custom roms? Thanks a lot.
install the Telus carrier cab. thats the only reason why u dont get data. I'm with Telus as well and run the latest from DCD w/no problems. Make sure u have the latest or min. req. radio.
This has been checked and done over and over. I always install the telus cab. I tried installing it multiple times. I tried installing an older one. I tried an older radio. I tried a hard reset.
Sorry, but I really need something not as obvious as installing the carrier tab to fix the problem.

There have been several threads and posts regarding your specific issue. Please search a little more next time, because you would have found the answer.
You will not get data working again until you get a DMU reset from your carrier. The Sprint customizations overwrote your DMU keys and they need to be reset. Flashing the stock rom refurbishes your PRI and gets the rest working fine, but for data this is the ONLY way, next to swapping your phone out for a new one.
But why does my data works with the stock rom if my DMU is wiped?! That's what I don't understand. And like I said, it's consistent; I'm on the stock rom, data works. I flash a custom rom (obviously unlocking and flashing a new radio too), install the carrier cab, data doe not work. I flash back the stock rom, data works. How come?
edit: I re-read a good bunch of the threads speaking about letting the customization for another carrier run, and not once did I see the same problem that I have; that is, that data is working with the stock rom, but not with a custom one. Would it be particular to Telus? And don't tell me I'm not installing the carrier cab when I go custom.

I had the same problem as you man, except with verizon wireless. If you've followed all the steps (i.e flashed to stock, and then flashed the new radio without letting customizations run) then there's only one thing left to do which fixed my problem. Call up Telus and have someone remove your Data feature, and to put on Pay per KB/MB. It should THEN work, because the DMU is now reset. So after it's removed, give it a whirl to google.com or whatever. Hang up, and call back. Ask them to add the data plan again. Data should now work for you
Let me know if the problem persists!
I'll call Telus in the next few days and try to make my way to a DMU reset. I'll post the results once it's done.
FIXED, and WITHOUT getting my DMU reset. I simply installed that rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364157
with radio 3.27, and data worked. This was the first time since the Sprint customization that I could get data working on a non-stock rom. I then proceeded to install a newer radio and the latest dcd. Works like a charm
Told you guys a DMU reset didn't make sense since data was working with the stock rom!

[Q] Lose 3G Data when downgrading from 4.0.3 to 2.3.5

I apologize first if there is already a thread for this. Mod please delete if there is. After going through 10 pages of related articles I still couldn't find an answer. I want to go back to GB because the leaked LP1 ICS is a little buggy. When I flashed the GB files through Odin everything went through fine except I had no data. I tried different kernels and modems thinking that might work, but to no avail. I'm in the US using this phone on AT&T. Can someone point me in the right direction as to which baseband I should use. I also checked the APN and everything there seems to be correct everytime I did this. I also went to Sam Firmware to look and couldn't find anything for North America or even US for that fact. Any help would be appreciated.
Have you entered your networks correct APN settings ???
jje
That was the first thing I checked. What did throw me off a little was there were three different APN settings. Phone,WAP and Broadband. The settings were "darkened" so that they couldn't be edited.
I'm also having trouble finding a UGK Firmware
Think I found it
Well I figured it out in case this happens to anyone else. a lot like the Droid phones from Verizon, when flashing back to stock and not receiving data, you have to go into the stock recovery and do a data wipe then flash the firmware via Odin,well worked for me anyway. Once booted,everything was good to go. Word of advice before doing so,write down your APN settings in case you have to manually put them in

[Q] Does a PRL Update affect ability to flash custom ROMs?

Ever since I got a PRL update from my carrier, I have had no luck whatsoever with having data on any of the ROMs I tried flashing which include CM7 Nightlies and THS ICS. Even after following droidstyle's guide to key no luck. Anyone have any info as to just how important PRL updates are or what their connection is to my problem? Thanks.
normally the sd card is the culprit for issues with flashing cm7 & cm9 based roms... especially if your getting cant mount errors.
Would you recommend I try clearing my SD card of everything besides the ROM itself before installing? And would it somehow lead to broken data?
Could have been when your prl updated it updated something else along the way. Or just doesnt happen to work with your phone. For example i flashed a galaxy s and had to use a paygo prl as the latest i had on my phone wouldnt work for it. Its def a possibility that something with that update caused ill effects.
What exactly have you tried? Flash back to stock ? Data doesnt work still with new prl? ?
Yup...pretty much droidstyle's guide word for word as far as flashing back to stock and installing CM7 or CM9/ICS.
I looked up something that flashes through CWM called alt carrier data fix...apparently for cricket users...thought it would help for my phone...from the flashing on/off 3g it just basically went dead...so that didn't work...

So first I want to say, the use of punctuation would make this easier to read. Could you please reform your help request like this:
1) what's the problem
2) what you've attempted to do to resolve it
3) where are you now. IE still not working.
4) what's currently loaded on the phone (stock or custom rom, which ROM and which radio and which service you're attempting to use this phone on)
From what I read it seems that you're currently having the issue that you can receive voice and sms but no data. Have you been able to receive data before? have you reset your device to stock? I believe you can do this using the Kies software from your desktop/laptop (if I'm wrong, please someone correct me). What carrier are you on? what radio are you using?
hope this is a good start point to get this resolved.

Yes but I was also able to get service on custom roms jelly beer,padawan etc. And ever sense I flashed that fix I got nothing

Ok, what I would do first is flash back to UCLF6 baseband, clear cache, dalvik and perform a factory reset, see if that cleared it up. If it didn't I would attempt to eliminate any funky things that might be going on (maybe the radio didn't get updated when the odin flash was performed, maybe remnants are still lingering, who knows) I would use the Kies reset method found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1731654 see if that clears up the issue as that should reset your baseband, your ROM, everything. This will unroot your phone if I recall correctly. if that corrects the issue, verify your baseband and then root the phone (if you want to) and go from there. Again, those are the methods I'd take personally if I were having this issue.
Re-root is needed to unlock APN settings on roms, and not all roms will allow APN changes.
(If the builds are Samsung TW roms or their variant builds )
The rom I "know" has working and pre-loaded APN listings for straight talk is Cyanogenmod 9 stable. (ICS build) and can be found on the Cyanogenmod website. (Device is quincyatt)
Testing this AOSP BUILD will eliminate the need for reloading APNs after flashing, and if combined with the UCLE2 baseband, should eliminate any variables with Straight talk APN issues.
Beyond a known and working AOSP build with ready APNs and proper baseband, if the device fails to function, you may have damaged the device.
Additionally, posting multiple threads for the same issue is frowned upon, and will draw moderator attention very quickly.
I hope this helps you ...g

This user had similar issues, and you may have partition corruption also, by rapid flashing and restoring the device without proper cleaning.
I advise "extreme " caution when using Odin too partition or re-partition the device, and suggest that you PM the OP from the above link "Before" any partition adjustments are attempted.
I do not mean to sound harsh or condescending in any way. And I truly am trying to help you Sir.

[Q] FIXED! ATT SGH-I717 Sim card error!!

*READ BELOW FOR A GUIDE TO FIX*
I've had my note for over a year now and i have had it rooted pretty much the entire time. Never any problems with it up until recently it started doing this thing where it would keep restarting. It would boot up and less than a minute later just restart. Off and on for a few days it was doing this. I was still running 2.3.6 at that point. So i decided to push 4.0.4 via odin since kies didnt support the firmware. Everything was working fine for a few hours then all of the sudden "the ring of death" showing me no service. Went through the phone and noticed it was saying there is no sim inserted. Tested sim on another phone. Works fine. Since then ive figured out via kies i can recovery and update firmware. Tried that. No Bueno. Now im to the point where im on 4.0.4 with no service. I've scoured through forums trying all kinds of different things, pushing different roms and modems via odin and cwm. Still no bueno.
Baseband version
Unknown
Kernel Version
3.0.8
Build Number
IMM76D.UCLF6
If anyone can give me ideas im willing to try them out.
Thanks.
I got it working so heres a direction for anyone else who has this issue!
Replaced Sim&SD card reader-No fix
After flashing all kinds of roms & modems still same issue saying no sim inserted.
Do a hard reset through your settings.
Flash cwm and put the radio from this link on your sd card. Use cwm to flash the radio.
Flash rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261598 via odin.
The first try i got an error during flash and got stuck on the software download error screen.
Reflashed the JB rom.
After its flashed flash clockwork recovery.
Enter cwm and do a factory reset. Clear cache. Clear dalvik cache. Reboot system.
If you get service, turn off phone. enter cwm and do a backup.
Reboot system.
It should be working.
If not restart and make sure to do a factory reset through your settings in the phone before reflashing rom.
Got the Phone up and running for about 30 mins.
After battery removed it reverted back to no sim card inserted.
Kept reflashing rom until it worked again.
Flashed cwm.(ClockworK recovery mod)
Deleted cache, dalvik cache
Backed up via cwm
If it reverts back to no sim after that restore using the cwm backup.-it worked for me
Now for the tricky part, my phone was getting crappy service...
So heres what i did to fix it.
Settings-more settings-mobile networks-access point names-click on the apn.

I believe I've read something like this before. I think they fixed it by starting over from scratch. Try returning to stock thru Odin. Then root and flash rom of choice.

GB stands for Gingerbread which was the first version of the OS that came with the phone. I believe the number was 2.3.6 (you can take a look in the about section in the settings and it'll tell you what you're currently running). ICS is Ice Cream Sandwhich which for our phone was 4.0.4 i believe. Jelly bean just came out today which you can use Kies to upgrade to and that I believe is 4.1.2. The numbers don't really mean a think, just the classification of what the OS is so if your phone reads something else (say 2.3.4) assume your phone is right and I'm wrong. I can't remember OS versions to save my life haha.
But you can use Kies to do an emergency recovery and I THINK it'll install Gingerbread. that's where I'd start, then test it, and then move to ICS and test, and then move to JB and test. I know long tedious process, but sometimes it's necessary. Imagine how fun I am to talk to on the phone while troubleshooting a computer :laugh:

what I use to migrate, and I between roms at least once a week with a full wipe because I rely on my phone being stable.
SMS and call logs: SMS Backup + (saves your call logs and sms to your gmail account. Makes a label for it and everything, pretty sweet. You can also restore from it. it takes about an hour for me to restore at 7000+ text messages).
pictures/media: stored on SD card
apps: if rooted and rommed I use titanium backup and run 2 sets. those which I want to keep my data like sms backup + to make restore easier and those I don't care about the data like google voice. If you're stock, just remember to check the little box in the beginning saying backup this phone to google (or something like that) and the next time you have to restore tick the box that says restore from google (or something like that) and it'll reinstall your apps. Mind you not the info, but it'll give you a head start.
As with your issue with installing roms. If you're using CWM i highly recommend switching to TWRP, not saying it's better in fact I like CWM better, but TWRP is the best for our roms and phone. If you have no clue what I mean by CWM or TWRP, read the all info sticky about how to rom thy phone.
I hope that helps.
Thanks OG. Yes, I know CMW and TWRP. I used to switch ROMs a lot. Finally stuck with Collective's latest (the orange one) pretty happy with it except that it's major glitch seems to be reboots whenever an app updates. So I figured unchecking auto update in Gstore should handle that.
You're saying I should try rooting w Odin again, install Superuser, then use TWRP to flash with? I'll be happy to read another 4 hrs of posts/stickies if that'll get me sorted out. I don't expect people like yourself to spend your day helping me. I'm very thankful for your tips here.
I've poured thru the "All things Gnote" threads and Noob Guides. They can be confusing as they always link out to many different threads. There is hardly ever a "Here are the steps 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
Thanks again OG.

No problem always happy to help. since you're used to this sorta thing you don't need to use odin again and reroot. What you can do is either install TWRP through CWM using this file here:
http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/sgh-i717/openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-quincyatt.zip
Or you can install Goo manager, click settings and select Install OpenRecoveryScript (though that's only 2.4.4.0 the link above is 2.5.0.0)
That should change you over to TWRP. and like always do a nandroid backup and then flash to your heart's content!

i have the same issue.....i kn0w its n0t an hardware issue....my ph0ne is fairly new never dr0pped and this started happening 3 days after i p0rted black star jb alpha
I have this same issues ive tried flashing everything ive tried a new sim and replaced the card reader.
What works consistently for me if to flash the latest modem everytime i have to reboot or boot the note. Its my daughters phone now and she drains the battery regularly if it boots after charging or it needs to be rebooted for whatever reason it will come up with the no sim card error. If i flash the modem thru recovery it will work for that boot but only as long as I dont reboot or shut the phone off, then i will have to flash the modem again.
Not fixed
All. This is not fixed. I am having the same issue and if you follow the guide, it works for a day maybe regardless of what rom is loaded or what modems. Has anyone found a real solution to this yet??
i717 running stock GB or ICS or JB roms...
Thanks!
I have the exact same issue. Replaced the sim/sd card slot and still no dice ): Flashed to stock and back. Nope. Still won't work

I'm having the same problem. There seems to be no set way to get it back to working. Basically any reboot of the phone produces a no sim card error. I have tried flashing the modem through recovery as it was mentioned that will fix the problem. That did not work for me. What does work, sometimes, is one of the following:
1. Full wipe and reinstall
2. Restore backup from Recovery
3. Fix permissions
I just keep doing one of the above listed and eventually it works. However if the phone reboots then it's back to the carousel of trying these options to get it back to working.
I'm running Padawan JB V2
I honestly have no idea what's causing it. I haven't tried to fix permissions before to fix this issue, but if I go into recovery and install the modem again and reboot, it works fine for a while (and by a while, I mean like a few hours at max).
Just started having this issue, myself...after flashing Tmo_SGH-T989_VKL1_radio_ATTNOTE.zip modem on my phone...restoring from a prior backup...
Restoring a backup will not change your modem.
