I have checked the forum and no thread had the fix I am looking for. I have K13 flashed on my phone and it was working great for over a week, but now all of a sudden today it stopped connecting to rogers. I have the correct internet and mms apns but my phone does not connect to rogers. I get no data and can send messages only some of the time, but I can receive them. I also can make phone calls, but cannot receive them.
Regardless, I have tried entering the apns again, resetting he network connection multiple times and resetting my phone multiple times. I have no idea why it is doing this. Could it be due to the firmware or is there a setting I need to change. Please help!
I had an issue with rogers today also, had no connection at work through out the day but once i left work it started working.
I really don't think this is a rogers issue. I am going to try flashing a different firmware on my phone... maybe that will fix it... I really don't know what to do. :-(
Another discovery is it works on occasion only and sometimes it shows 3g but does not connect to H+ when it sends out data.
Sounds pretty weird. Did you insert another 50cents when the operator asked??
Was working for a week then with no change at your end the weird crap started...
I'd flash back to stock Rom for your provider and see if all goes back to normal. I'd make a backup 1st to switch back if it's your provider and not the device.
Good luck.

I'm flashing back to an earlier version. KG5 was working fine for me... should I really flash back to original though? that would be KE2 for me.

Up to you really. If KG5 was working good try that 1st. That's what I would do if you are sure it's not your provider at fault.
Just a methodical process of elimination.

Fashing back did not solve the issue...
Doesn't point to your devices software to me from the little I know of your situation.
Could try a different sim...maybe from another network to see if there is something going on there.
Could try your sim in another device also. See if it works the.
Otherwise could flash back to stock. Reset flash counter if need be with jig and take back to shop and see if they can get it going.
Sorry I can't be more helpful without hands on.

I will try the sim card thing. It seems weird to me that it would just stop working like this, but after reading around some think that it is the modem? How could that have even changed in my phone? Does flashing cause it to change? It was working fine for two months solid and for one week on K13.
It is definitely not the sim card. Modem?
I did read somewhere that someones ime number changed when they flashed.
Might be worth a search as I dont have a link.
There is a way to check if ur ime is correct by using the dialer.

Well Rogers actually fixed the issue. I called them and they apparently had tower issues in my area. It is back up and running after me trying to figure all this out. Such a headache, but at least I will know for next time... a problem like this should not randomly arise and the modem should not change if stock firmware is used (given it is the right version). My IME is still there.
Glad to hear all is good. Had my doubts about it being your device

Thanks for all the help. I went through so many different processes, but I actually managed to get KIES to work with my phone now and all the settings I had are back on it too. So at least something good came out of it. Even if Rogers gave me a huge headache.
Hi there! With SGS III being my third from the Galaxy family, I did not waste any time and flashed first custom rom the very hour I bought the phone. Everything was really great - I've been through Android Revolution, Omega, Wanam and couple more, but it all seemed too good to be true. Two days ago somethig went wrong with my data connection - I noticed it while I couldn't connect to Facebook. The "H" icon was in place and by the arrows I saw that it was "working" all the time. The problem was (and still is) that no data actually goes through. I tried different radios, kernels and roms - to no avail. I've read something about botched or misplaced IMEI issue, but checked it right after that and it is intact. To be sure I tested my SIM card in other phone and the data connection is working flawlessly. APNs checked. I'm getting quite nervous because I've only got my SGS III for three days and already it's.. Not entirely functional.
If you have any idea what this may be about, I'm happy to provide any information needed to identify my problem. Thanks in advance for saving my S III..
Sad to hear, unfortunately it seems you already tried the common solutions to solve such an issue, the only additional thing coming to my mind is to flash a stock Rom with odin, if it doesn't work do the same with a pit file or change your csc, because the last two options reset your whole user data to stock and your internal sd as well (don't forget to backup your data) it should solve it.
Maybe there is somewhere a leftover which causes your problem, good luck

Flash a stock rom with Odin and perform a full wipe *2767*3855# in the phone dialpad. Save important files to the pc first. This should fix it all. You can reroot after that and make a cwm backup of your stock rom.
-Edit- double post, Follow the above
Thank you both for your suggestions, but it seems that I'm stuck with I-do-not-know-what.. :/ Flashed stock rom and new radio via ODIN, but the problem with really slow HSDPA connection is still present. I am worried it might have something do do with IMEI after all - it seems that here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29461950&postcount=3 they are explaining similar issue, but I haven't lost my IMEI (not to mention backuping nor restoring anything). What is more, I do not only have EDGE icon, but HSDPA as well, but the connection is slower than GPRS. Damn it..
I tried to search for the same problem through XDA but found nothing.
The phone is GT-I9300, Android 4.0.4, firmware I9300XXLH1. After some time after reboot the phone stops make and receive calls. The signal in statusbar is full and in notification menu I can see the name of my mobile operator. First I thought that something is wrong with my SIM-card. But after every reboot, as I already mentioned, for some time there're no problems.
Besides even after calls become unavailable, 3G and Edge are working fine.
May be someone can suggest any solution?

Weird. Doesn't sound like it's actually losing signal, just loss of functionality heh. As you even noticed you have signal and the radio is still functioning, at least for data, just not for voice.
I know it's a pain but I would start by either factory defaulting the stock ROM and see if it persists or if you want try a custom ROM and make sure to do a full wipe first.
The ****ty part is loss of data. If you have CWM installed then maybe make a nandroid first so you can revert back if it's no different

Have you cut your sim card or is it an original micro sim? Of you have cut it that's your culprit.

Hmm, that is messed up.
Maybe try a different modem?
It sounds like a software bug but to carry across a fresh install.... That's not right....
What ROM are you trying? Did it happen on any other one? Or just happens with this new ROM?

So i have 2 sims of one mobile op. The factory one and cut one. I began to think that the problem is with the sim card. So I tried both and nothing changed.
So may be there is any problem with micro-sim slot in the phone? May be the hardware problem. But if there is any hardware problem, why does the phone after airplane mode or reboot register in the network successfuly.
Besides when I call someone (while the network is still available) no matter how long the conversation is - the phone is available all the time.

Hey, just wondering did you manage to fix this problem?
My S3 is doing the same thing, only 2 weeks of having the phone and it started doing it today. I got full signal but it says I can only make emergency phone calls. Done the whole battery in & out, reset factory settings, and still nothing. I thought it may be the software update as I am yet to update but I'm unable to since I can't have data connectivity, I was going to use a friends' Wi-Fi to download the new firmware but it sounds like that doesn't help either?
As the title suggests, suddenly I started getting force closes with com.android.phone when I'd receive a call. I immediately tried to call out, same story. I've been troubleshooting for the past few hours, and had no luck finding anything relevant on XDA or any other site.
Firstly I switched kernels, since I'd updated to DSB's latest, though I'd had no issues with it until then. That failed, so I reverted to Viper's stock build.prop, undoing some changed I'd been running for a while (and hadn't modified at all today).
With no luck there, I backed up my sdcard and did a full factory reset and formatted the sdcard in twrp and then in cwm, followed by a reinstall of the latest Viper ROM. Even that didn't work, so I relocked and RUU'd back. Twice. Same exact issue. I can text anyone just fine, data over LTE goes on as normal, but anytime I try to make a call, be it with the stock dialer or through a diff one from the play store (for kicks, last resort). I reseated the SIM card a multitude of times, to no avail. I get full functionality with my SIM in my other phone, so I'm sure it must be the hardware itself on the phone. Every time com.android.phone stops, the SIM initialization happens like when you physically re-seat the SIM.
The troubling thing is that I haven't done anything, save for a simple kernel and recovery update, which would've been negated by two RUU runs to stock. I haven't touched the SIM card or anything, at least until that started happening. Furthermore confusing is how all other functionality can remain except for actually making phone calls.
Removing the SIM entirely and dialing a number does the exact same thing, just as an FYI.
Has anyone seen this? Any ideas?
As I've unlocked my phone, my last resort is to go into a VZW store and act like an idiot so they don't check to see if i unlocked it. Further complicating that is the fact that the DNA was actually purchased on my own account, which I closed, and brought to an unlimited data line that was preexisting. I'm half tempted to wait for the official OTA and see if that will remedy the issue, but my fear is this may be a physical issue beyond the remedy of a firmware update.

Check this thread, me and another member faced the same problem. I can get 3g/2g data, sms and all other functions just right. Just no phonecalls, every time i make a call i get a crash of the app.
So, i am pretty sure this is a software bug. For god's sake, what a strange problem!Did your phone used to work right?
I bought my phone from ebay, did not check if phonecalls are working(i couldn't imagine such a bug) and went straight away to rooting/other kernels/roms etc. But can't find a solution too,tried everything as you, and the worst, i am overseas!!!
Is the update coming soon?
edit1: i have seen lots of threads about sim errors,a very common issue of DNA, i am believing that these two bugs have something in common. No hardware defect, just software bugs.

thanks for the thread, for the life of me i couldn't find anything exactly relating to what i described. that is spot on though, and def makes me feel a bit more at ease that maybe it can be resolved with an update to the firmware that's due soon.
yea, the funny thing is that it worked flawlessly, i never even got the SIM error message, i'd been texting my gf, a few friends, and my parents and then my pops called in the evening and it immediately closed out the call before it really even rang. i called him right back and that's when the force closes started happening, calls never working agian thereafter. however, i was able to still text everyone i was before and data was working flawlessly as always, just no calls, not even after all the crap i did to troubleshoot.
the update is hopefully going to be out soon. the support documents came out a few days ago. i def can't survive on this galaxy nexus after having used my DNA since launch!
I will wait for the update too, hopefully it will be uploaded today or tomorrow i think. But just because i can't get on the air update, i need to download from a server the update and install it on my own.
If anyone finds a solution or have an idea of what to look/do, please post here. I am pretty sure it is a software bug, something is stucking the application from working properly. The other solution is RMA, but it is a very difficult to send it back and get it back again.

Ok, I had the same exact issue. I was stock then went to viper Dna then tried going to hatka and soft bricked my phone. I went back to stock using the RUU. That's when I got the com. Android. Phone crash message. So I had to re unlock reboot and then flash viper Dna again. Everything works as it should now.
After saying all that I just got the new update from Verizon. I assume I shouldn't flash this since I'm on a custom rom.

Hi guys i got a similar problem. My DNA was perfect since yesterday but now i can use data connection for internet. All the other stuff is working fine....SMS,call, wifi, the only thing that is not working is the 3g data. All of this problem came when i flashed the viper DNA, so i flashed the supercharged hoping it was an issue of the rom. Olso with the supercharged the problem was always here.... So i decide to came back to stock and i re-lock my bootloader and flasched stock RUU. But data connection is still not working :crying:
can anyone please tell me what can i do?
Did you install patches 1.1.1& 1.1.2 from viper?They fix some gsm problems.

Has any one figured out this problem? I have not been able to received any phone calls since I did s-off. I have tried everything that has been wrote so with no luck. I have relocked my phone and flashed stock RUU no change. Unlocked and tried several roms still no calls. formatted everything under CWM not change. Fixed permissions. Went back and re-locked and reflashed stock RUU. I know that some of the things above have fixed others phones and some still have problems. I also found a script someone wrote lock my phone which now it says locked and flashed stock rom after that still have problem. Does anyone here here a idea that I have not already mentione above? I like my droid dna but if I can't get it to make and take calls it is a paperweight.:crying:

I don't see mention of it very often so I have to assume it's just me, but I have a terrible time with the radio getting borked out of the blue when I run any of the CM10 based ROMs. It will work fine for a few days, but out of nowhere, one I day I will turn the phone on and the radio will be messed up again. For example, this morning I installed the latest CM10.2 stable release. All was working fine... data, phone, etc. I got the ROM setup with all my apps and decided to make a backup. After doing the backup in recovery and rebooting, the radio no longer worked. So obviously I did something in recovery to screw it up.
Does anyone have any clue as to what I could be doing to cause this to happen so often? I want to run a CM Rom, but having to reset the radio once or twice a week is getting tiresome.
Thanks. For now i'll just reset the radio again and go back to stock and hope someone has some suggestions.

There are some versions that lose connectivity/data connection but it's not a borked radio. Most of the time you can restore a working system by just turning off data for a minute and then turning it back on.
I am in the process of downloading the "stable" release from 2013-12-11, but my current nightly of 2013-12-10 hasn't had any hiccups.
I wish it was that simple for me. I can typically get data to work again when it goes out by doing what you said, but the ability to make phone calls never comes back unless I do the whole restore radio procedure. When I look at my phone info, it has my phone number listed as all zeros. It's a pain.
Thanks for responding...

Ahhh, the 000-000-0000 number. Seriously, pull the battery. Don't shutdown, just pull it out, reseat, and turn on.
BTW, I installed the stable version yesterday and haven't had any problems. Flawless install, all of my apps still work and I didn't lose any data.
If that is all I needed to do, then I feel like a complete dummy. I guess I will reload the stable version again tomorrow and see what happens. Thanks for the info.
EDIT: I've come to the conclusion that i'm just not going to be able to run a CM10 based ROM. I have tried everything I can think of and/or read about on these forums and no matter what, I lose my ability to make calls using any of the CM10 ROMs. I know it's me because everyone else seems to run them fine, but I can't. It's a real bummer because I hate the stock ROM. I just don't know what to try anymore. I tried setting all the network settings as described in the directions (although I can't find the options for RIUU\SIM and NV mode anywhere). I triple wiped everything before flashing, I tried all the different CM10 ROMs and nightlys, I tried flashing with and without the sim card installed, etc. and nothing works. I get the 4G network, but my MEID ad phone number keep coming up as all zeros. It's very frustrating because the only reason I bought the phone off Ebay was to be able to run a CM rom.
I only have one thing left to try and I don't even know if it's worth it. Verizon sent me 2 4G sim cards by mistake so I have a spare sim card. I'm thinking of activating it and swapping out the old one in the hopes that it's a sim card issue. Although the current sim card works fine with the stock ROM so I doubt that's the problem but I don't know what else to try. Boy switching around to different ROMs sure was a lot easier with my old Dinc and Dinc2.
Have you tried running the latest RUU then flashing recovery and restoring? That seemed to solve a random reboot issue I was having, although I've never had radio issues. I have dirtyracun s-off, so it was pretty quick and easy.

I tried both automatic and home with same results. At some point i'll give it another try, but for now i'm going to stick with the Venom ROM because i'm getting tired of having to reset the radio. Some cold winter weekend day when i'm stuck in the house, i'll give it another shot.
