[Q] stuck on roaming on cm9 - Motorola Photon 4G

so i flashed to the new cm9 and my roam indicator is on so i check my status and sure enough i am. i have no data and cant find a way to stop the roaming when i wasn't roaming on my previous version. any help would be appreciated

Change the network settings to home only and not automatic. Automatic = forced roaming.
Sent from my MoPho. All typos are the phones fault.

does this still let you roam?

Thank. this fixed my problem and it seems to carry over from rom to rom. At first i could not get any connection on CM9 (joker) on first flash when it had been fine on AOK<sp>. Tried going back to that one plus the turl one and no luck getting of roaming. lashed jokers 3.2 and fixed roaming and all was right in the world. Then I put 4.4 on top of it and seems to work fine now

[Q] Lost mobile data

I do not know what I did, but I cannot seem to get 3g service anymore! I had my phone on CM7 with the OTB Kernel. I then Odin'd back to stock and did the OTA upgrade to froyo. After that, I flashed the community rom. At this point the mobile data icon was gone and I have no connection. I have tried different backups and even using the Odin restore files to go all the way back to DI01. Nothing has worked. Does anyone know what could be going on? Any help on the matter is greatly appreciated
Is the mobile data toggle switch on in the pull down shade?

Yes it is. And mobile data still doesn't work on Eclair, where that toggle switch wasn't an option.
There are a lot of us having this problem at the moment. It does not seem to be rom related (as you know). I am assuming at this point it is Verizon related.
yea my 3g is dead getting a new phone from VZW
If you are having 3G signal loss issues, please post your build date and modem version here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051543
Build date can be found by pulling battery and looking at number next to 500V (E.g. 10.08)
Well, I think I fixed it. I posted my method on the post about 3g connectivity in the Fascinate General section. Thanks for the help, everyone.
I just noticed this starting to happen on my xoom the same day it began on my fascinate and I changed nothing on either. Starting to look like this is on verizons side.

[Q] NDT MIUI Ginger 2.3.7 - 3G DATA issue

Just installed NDT MIUI Ginger 2.3.7 latest and i ran into some issues i would need some help with. I tried searching for what i'm looking for without luck. On the other hand it is possible i don't know how to use the option itself.
Anyway, the issues i face are as such:
- cannot switch from 3G preferred to anything else (2G or 3G only);
when i select either of them, the screen blinks and takes me back to the previous screen
- cannot access internet over 3G eventhough i selected the correct APN or even created a new one according to the settings provided by Vodafone.
If you have any ideas, i would appreciate it.
Thanks.
Do you have the last build (V10)? Try reflashin', i got v10 and i'm currently on H+ rarely drops on 3G
Thanks for the advice. I am on v10. From what i can tell it got fixed on it's own. 3G data works fine and i can switch between 2G and 3G now.
I flashed again clean just to be sure, so far so good. The 2G 3G switch still flickers from time to time but it eventually lets me select what i want.
Thanks again.

That happens to me,too.
And it lasts for about 2 months,seems no solutions yet.:crying:
One possible reason I got is like: every time the phone encountered a signal problem,such as Airplane Mode,weak strength,etc.The phone react much faster than the SIM card,and then the sim card is not really initialized,the phone itself resumes up,and got a wrong MCC/MNC,both are 000.
No solutions on photons yet,because there seems no one works on Photons' framework.That could be changed by correcting the framework I think,because same problem happens on so many types of phones,such as ST18i.And both are resolved.:crying:
You can fine more information on CM's official website,there are many discussions on resolving other types of phones.

Hello there, I´m using the phone in Perú in a GSM network, with stock 2.3.4 and rooted. So far my MoPho has never lost the APN configuration. Are you only losing your 3g connection and your APN? Because I do lose my GSM signal sometimes in a day, but for some seconds only.
Hi, I am in Sweden and I am using miui 2.6.1 ics rom and I have no problems also I use a app called apn global its a quick way to set up apn's it reads your sim card.
GSM apns disappearing
Hi
I am on Cm9 aokp build 38 and i also had this issue of apns disappearing ( I am in India using GSM) The solution is to flash forceroaming.zip files from cm9 fixes files in this forum and flash it and restart it. If you dont see any apns manually you enter the apn value of your provider and save the settings and voila the problem is gone:highfive:. Sure this fixes the problem but I dont know how:fingers-crossed:. experienced guys may help but i am experiencing uniterrupted data after this
Used to have the disappearing apn problem for cm9... but since recently flashing to cm10, the disappearing has stopped... In the "Manage Apps", i noticed that the apndormancy service was stopped by default for cm10...probably thats what stops the apns from disapearing when phone "sleeps".. If theres an app that can freeze services and you can get it to freeze the apndormancy service, i think this would stop the disappearing.
Cm10 all data problems have been eliminated apns don't disappear. For cm9 you can flash forceroaming.zip

4G Issues on CyanogenMod 10.2

I am new to root and ROMs so perhaps I overlooked a setting.
I just rooted my phone and flashed CM 10.2 a few days ago and I cannot get 4G anymore. I can only get 3G. I have tried a few fixes like dialing *#*#4636#*#* and adjusting the APN settings but nothing worked. I have the LTE button ON and I am wondering if I am still getting 4G because I have LTE on and it's just showing 3G. But I don't think that's the case.
Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated!

reflash stock rom. make sure you have 4g. flash the vram3c radio then flash cm10.2 rom. you should have no problems with 4g after that.
I will try that. Thanks!

I tried flashing the radio and CM again and sometimes 4G comes up for a few minutes and goes back to 1X. This happens where I have gotten 4G before. Maybe the radio isn't as strong?

My personal experience, living in a fringe signal area, is that AOSP roms just don't have as strong a signal as TW roms (it presumably has to do with how the RIL had to be hacked/reverse-engineered to work for AOSP). I would prefer running AOSP, but unfortunately in my experience on my S3 and Note2, where I am located on the fringe of full 4G coverage areas, I have the same issues as you: on TW, full, fast, 4G; on AOSP, very obviously slow 3G or 1X.
Edit to say I've only tried 4.2.2 ROMs, haven't tried the 4.3 ones yet, so if I'm handing out wrong/outdated info, I'd love to be corrected.
I am now running a stock 4.1.2 ROM and still cannot get 4G. I now for some reason can't even dial *#*#4636#*#*. When I try it just says "Welcome to Verizon Wireless, this call cannot be completed as dialed." Anyway to get that number to work so I can check my networks again?

Try going into settings and factory reset phone now. If that doesnt work, reboot into stock recovery and factory reset from there and reboot. That seems to restore signal for those of us that got stuck in roaming mode from the Carbon thread. Might help your problem too
So I decided to re-flash CyanogenMod 10.1, adjusted the APN settings again, and I have 2 bars of 4G right now. Usually 4G will flash a couple times and change to 3G, but it is staying 4G, so hopefully it stays that way!
Well it stayed 4G for a bit until I turned WiFi on. The moment I turned it on, my 4G went to 3G. I turned WiFi off and I still have 3G. Anyone know what would cause this?
EDIT: My network type shows eHRPD with 3G, where as when I had 4G (before I turned my WiFi on) it showed LTE. If this helps any.

Where do you live, i know the mid Circle drive all the way over across platted to the airport are just dead zones. I lived on Verde drive and rarely had good signal, then when i moved up circle behind the bowling alley i never had a good signal. Just something about the antennae in that area. T-mo is a complete bust in that area. But i'm sure you probably all the way over on the Nevada side completely making what i said irrelevant.

Do a search on towers in your areas. If I remember correctly the closest tower to you in right by the interstate by the new (now not so new) MCD's in Security. That tower had alot of problems in the area past the Olympics complex all the way back to Peterson because of the radio towers for the Jets. I have been gone for almost 3 yrs so don't take what i say as truth tho. Just how it was when i was there.

I've had that problem before. .I used a mod like this.
This mod is from DroidXcon, Try this and hopefully it will work. (make a backup of your buld.prop first)
Instructions:
1)Go to market install BuildProp Editor
2)Once installed find and open Build Prop Editor
3)Hit the menu button and select Edit
4)Scroll to the bottom of screen and add the following lines
Code:
ril.sales_code=LOL
ro.csc.sales_code=LOL
5)Hit the save button at the top right hand corner of the screen(looks like a disk)
6)Once this is done saving restart the phone
7)After restarting go to Settings>More Settings>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names>Menu Button>+ New APN
8)Add desired carriers APN info, when finished hit menu button and save
9)Power down and change to your desired SIM card if you hadn't already done so
10)Power back on and go to Settings>More Settings>Mobile Networks> Access Point Names (if done properly you should see the APN data you entered for your respective carrier).
11)Select the respective APN listing and then you should have working data

I tried this but having the same problem, so I decided to save the APN each time I edited an item, and every time I would change the MNC and save, it would not be on my APN list, and it would be blank again.
Bump... also having this issue. Trying CM 10.2 for the first time since August. It had Bluetooth issues back then, so I've been running Bean's ROM until yesterday. Can't get 4G serivce in what is absolutely a saturated 4G area...
Was able to fix the issue by wiping the phone completely (including internal storage!), installing Bean's ROM, doing a factory reset, then coming back.
FWIW I always wipe internal storage when going back and forth between 4.1 and 4.2+ roms, seems to alleviate any SD card issues that can arise from the changes to filesystem in 4.2.

Lg g3 sprint help please.

I have been experiencing 4g connectivity issue the past 3 weeks. I have been running cm 13 rom for about a month or two with no issues. But then 4g connection disappeared and i was only getting 3g. After trying different fixes, i have narrowed down the the problem to prl issue. When phone restarts or battery is swapped, i get notification that sim card is not detected and only 3g data connection. Once i do a prl update no sim notification goes away and 4g works. Once phone restarts no sim message is back and 4g is gone. Any idea what the issue could be and how to fix it. Thanks.

I dont have the rom so i cant give u an absolute answer here but I would try toggling off the battery saver because if its on and active it can unfortunately switch to a lower band to conserve battery so that would be my first guess. Switch it off and reboot.

If that doesnt work try another method. Download shorcut master lite. On the top left click the 3 dots and select search. Type in Modem. Now look for the one on the list named com.lge.hiddenmenu.lte_only.modemsettings make sure u choose the right one they all look similar but that one says LTE_Only thats the one u want. now click it. Then press favorite so its there when u need it. Then launch it. Select modem settings, then select RAT selection click that. Here you will have a list like LTE Only, GSM Only, WCDMA Only, GSM/WCDMA etc.. But at the top you have Auto. Thats the one i picked Im pretty sure thatll connect u to 4G thats what worked for me
