I just flashed my photon to 198_7 (after soft bricking it) and now everything's up and running, stock.
For some reason my bar signal doesn't show anything, just greyed out bars... I do receive calls and texts, internet and WiFi works too.
Can anyone help me? I searched but there wasn't any results... thanks!!

I've been rooted and running a few different ROM's for several months now.
I'm currently on XTRSense 5.0.1, having loaded it within the past week or so. All has been working swimmingly until this morning. I had used it to check weather and such before going to work (tho' I don't recall if I used home WiFi or 3G) and then hadn't looked at my phone till I got to work.
My phone signal was nil with an X over it. I tried toggling on/off for mobile network but the widget and the Options checkbox are both greyed out. I tried rebooting the phone and it still didn't come back. It prompted me to set my clock b/c it wasn't getting network time anymore (1st time I've seen that).
Feeling desperate, I even tried changing the NAM CDMA settings to EVRC-B just to see if I could "jiggle the handle" for the mobile network and get it going. All to no avail.
Text messages do not reach the phone, and calls ring through to voice mail (though not immediately, as though it were ringing the phone).
I'm at a loss and doubtful I could call Verizon to get much help.
Any help anyone can provide would be deeply appreciated!
Thanks!

Disregard... Verizon must be have a weak day and my coverage is a bit dodgier than usual. I usually have better coverage at work, but I had to go hunting for better signal. I guess that's what I get for troubleshooting while sitting at my desk...
Out of nowhere, I suddenly have no access to the HSPA+ network. I was on the phone, and then the call dropped. Since then, I've been able to get full bars on EDGE, but data won't work, can't send or receive texts, and can't make or receive calls. My bill is paid, so I know it isn't my service being shut off or anything.
I've tried restarting, pulling the battery, and nothings working.
It's running the most recent stock update, only modification I've done is root it, which was long before these issues started up.
Anyone else have these issues or similar? What can be done to solve this?
I recently unlocked and installed Joker's CM9, because this problem was present when I was on stock and thought a new ROM could fix it.
My network is acting really weird. I can't seem to get any service 95% of the time. I can open up the mobile networks preference pane and select my network (3G 302-610) and it will register. I then get full bars, but text messages won't send and calls won't complete (End after 0 seconds). Incoming calls will go to voicemail.
Apparently, ever x minutes, it will connect for 10 seconds or so, because I will get all my text messages. If I try to reply, it will have already dropped my service.
The weirdest part, is when it said I had no signal (it said "No service" in the roaming bar), but I still got a call. After 20ish seconds, the other person sounded like a robot in a really distorted voice, then the call dropped after 27s.
This is really frustrating me. Can anyone help me on this?

MIUI/ICS for the Photon
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1536161
Alright, do you mean I should restore to the stock SBF through RSD Lite? You posted a link to MIUI so now I'm wondering if I should flash that firmware. I have the stock motorola one downloaded already (I've had to restore before).
Also, could it be possible that my network went weird when I tried to flash the pudding unlock file? I remember it was fine before I unlocked (at least I think it was) and the pudding file failed (something about android_secure).

MIUI/ICS for the Photon
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1536161
I just SBF'd and the problem is still here..
I went to mobile network, set network selection to GSM/UTMS, turned Operater Selection to UTMS only (thats the type my provider, Virgin Mobile Canada, uses), but I can't make calls or text. I get bars, and occasionally it says its connected to the correct tower (302-610) but it just wont work!
I have no idea what to do
if that is a Sprint device by default GSM is disabled
Nope. I'm using UMTS in Canada on Virgin Mobile. I've been using it for the past 2 months, just recently it's gone sporadic.
Does anyone have any insight on this? It's driving me crazy. I've been using my backup phone for the past 2 days, and it works great. As soon as I try to use my Photon though, it's awful.
First let me start with the phone:
AT&T Galaxy S II running 4.1.1 SuperNexus Rom Build 4-20121007. Kernel is 3.01.15-CM-g3802d32 faryaa kernel. Baseband 1777UCLE5
Everything was working fine. I've been running SuperNexus for about a month. The only initial problem I had was that the baseband was not working upon startup and I had to put a new baseband in for it to work, got that fixed and been flying smooth for a month with no issues. Today...suddenly it stopped being so smooth.
Let me clarify:
- I can make outbound calls and hear just fine (couldn't do that when baseband was wrong)
- I can recieve and send text messages
- I show a full reception bar up top with 3g, the signal bar is grey. That may mean something or it may just be the color theme for this rom. I didn't really pay attention before the issue.
- Network info: AT&T network, Signal Strength -83 dBm 15asu, Mobile Netowrk type UMTS:3 HPSA+ :15, Service state is 'in service', Mobile Network Status 'connected'
I was literally in the middle of surfing the internet and pulled up a browser for a webpage, suddenly it hung in terms of loading the website. It did nothing for about ten minutes. I then found that all apps that use data do not work. They attempt to load but give errors. I rebooted the phone several times, shut it down fully several times, removed the battery and sim card, replaced and restarted. None of that worked. I made a call out to a friend and he could hear me and I him very clearly, call dialed out and connected without issues. Text messages come and go just fine.
The only thing I can think of is that they turned on the 4g signal in my area, or near it today and maybe there's an issue there.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.

My friend was having literally the exact same issue today on his S3 and I was having a little problem on my phone too. At this point I think it's AT&T. My S2 was not go to HSPA+ it would just stay on 3G when I turned data on.
It is AT&T. They are changing the APN they use for data. I posted a fix for this in the other thread relating to this issue.

So I was attempting to get VoLTE to work on an M Rom. I flashed 6.11.3 but even though VoLTE was enabled, calls kept dropping to 3G. After a few hours of frustration and flashing different roms on the forum to try to get VOLTE working, I conceded and flashed my original M Rom. However I couldn't get it to connect to my mobile network. I then realized that my IMEI and who knows what else was corrupted / showing 0. I managed to flash the IMEI using a guide on this forum and I can now get it to connect to the network at least for data. However when I try to make a phone call, I don't hear any ringing. And when someone tries to call me, their phone rings and eventually goes to voicemail. However nothing happens on my phone / no call is shown. Any help would be much appreciated.
