Could you give me the link? I can't find the thread...
I think the wifi radio or antenna is just weak on the s3. Because I have been experiencing the same. The wifi sometimes disconnect and the speeds r slower. But it's not that bad it's bare able.

You cash either try miui, which is built on cm code, and hopefully it works or stay cm7 and not have data working. Miui is very similar to cm7 and performance is almost identical.

I was wondering, when i first got my samsung phone on froyo the gps didn't work at all much like my prime. I then got gps booster app and it fixed it basically, now i know the prime has issues because of the case but i was wondering if something like gps booster made specifically for the prime would help like my sammy phone? Any thoughts on this guys?
None "specific" to prime but there are many proven affordable - $50 - BT GPS devices that would for sure work
Hmmm okay, will look into those if I need it for a road trip or something. As of now I have not had to use the GPS much so no rush. Still sucks though I bought something that doesn't work like they advertisers. Sigh.

This is a hardware issue. The only way to fix this is to saw out the back metal plate where the gps chip is and put plastic over it.

It's just hidden from quick settings. You can still toggle it with the Power Control widget or by going to Settings --> Location services --> GPS satellites.
Ahh yeah, that gives me some hopes again. This
Last week has been too stressful lol.

Hi there,
Just wondering if anyone could help me on this, i changed rom to The above mentioned Omega v2.1 aokp, which im absolutely love, i just have one problem, whenever i come to work my 3g or h+ is replaced with the roaming sign , which is giving me problems when i come to wi-fi tethering, its like having crappy 3g connectivity.
Now on any other rom ive had before i just changed my gsm/wcdma auto to wcdma only which solved the problem and i never saw the R again, whereas in the new rom there is no option to changed this in the settings.
Any help greatly appreciated guys

Sounds as if you need to try a different modem. Different modems get different signal strengths depending on what area you're in.

I'm using the same 000R radio with no problems at all (here in Brazil) although it seems that 37p is better for use in USA
I can't get 4G..no matter what I do (updating baseband,PRL, Profile, switching from sense to cm10 and back again..).I live in Lancaster,CA where the LTE is turned on, and it is working for my other phones. Anyone have a suggestion?

Yes, I even checked the *#*#4636#*#* menu and it was checked as well. Baseband is 1.12.11.1119, H-boot 1.12.1111 S-OFF

Probably, but as you probably already know the LTE signal is weak anyway haha also my other phone has it working perfectly fine, which is odd. Don't know why its not working.

Our radio in the phone aren't as strong as some other phones so that's also a contributing factor

Yea even so, sounds like a possible hardware issue if they're the same. I'd bring them in to sprint to show the difference in network capabilities
