Make sure your network data is turned on and data usage settings are correct. As long as your apn's are correct it will work.

An unusual problem?

Ok here's the deal, over the past week or so, sort of mid afternoonish time, I lose the ability to call, text or use data on my handset her signal remains constant. A quick fix to this is changing a setting in network from auto to GSM only which I am told logs off 3g and uses the 2g network yet once I switch to GSM only texts and calls return to normal. I've tried a new sim card from vodafone which didn't change the problem and I was wondering if anyone has had simalar problems and could maybe share a fix, as I don't want to keep my phone on 2g as its very slow.

I've also tried different kernels, firmwares and a full reset which non of those helped either.

Im a bit of a noob at this android thing but do you maybe need to import your carriers data settings? I had a look on my sgs2 but couldn't find them. On my old iphone you had to enter the carriers settings to access the 3g network

you will find the data setttings here.

I've tried between ki3 and ki4, previous firmwares have used the ki3 modem more recently in intras frankenstien firmware. But my problem is more recent. This couldn't be an efs problem could it?

Don't know if this helps at all, but it is good to occasionally reset your PRL's according to where you live.

[Q] does GMS functions fully (with 3g) on XT912 running ICS?

HI,
Thanks in advance for helping. I am planning to buy a used Motorola Droid Razr XT 912 (verizon) phone for my brother. We are on GSM network. I am not clear if I upgrade to ICS GSM will be unlocked and works full like a GSM phone or not.
Will there be any issues like data not working/3G not working etc?
Quick help will be greatly appreciated as I have to confirm to prospective seller!
Thanks you!!

You need not to install GSM patch..ICS has enabled the global functionality of the phone.
GSM works flawless except of one problem ( call divert does not work)

Does that GSM functionality also include all the US GSM carriers? And if it does, does it work on the US GSM Carriers 3G networks?

You need to manually add the APNs for the network, just installing the app isn't enough.

Ask the carrier what APN settings you need to get voice and SMS to work.
Thanks everyone, but we do not need APNs for working of voice or sms!
There was other way round! I got success!

[Q] Does data work while on a voice call?

Does the Sprint One Max data function still work while on a voice call? I recently switched to the Samsung Galaxy S5 and discovered that data shuts off when I answer or place a call. Does that happen on the Max as well??

If you are on 3G/4G/LTE then data should work but if you are on 2G (EDGE) network then it data wont work.
However, this feature is network provider dependednt as well. If your network provider haven't provisioned this feature on network on 3G/4G/LTE then data might not work.
Usually I have seen data not working only on 2G coverage areas. Rest it works on 3G and above.

Are you Sprint?
Could be wrong but I remember verizon and sprint could not use data while on a call due to network...like if i called you and send you an mms while on call youd have to wait till disconnected to get the mms,hense no data while on a call....

The answer is no on Sprint for this and a few other phones made around the same time. They are tri band and switch off from data to voice when needed and back when needed. Other phones in the past have had simultaneous voice and data, but this one does not.
