Ok here is the story.
I got my wife a used phone. I went to activate it and I selected my phone. After activating the used phone at spint.com which deactivate my phone I realized dooh I did the wrong phone I reactivated my phone again. I was running CM 9.0 on my phone which is hboot 1.4. I lost my data but my phone part was working. I installed a stock rooted ROM and called sprint. I had to update my profile. After that I had data back. Ok I'm good now, so I thought. I CM 9.0. Restarted my phone and loaded up CM 9.0. No data again. Pissed I was. I tried to clear my cache a multitude of time and still no data. I reinstalled the.stock root ROM and I have data. Does anyone know what I need to do to get data back on CM 9.0?
Pre thanks.

Did you do a full wipe when re-flashing CM?
try configuring your APN settings in Settings/Mobile Network/APN Settings.
I did a full wipe I will try to configure the APN today.
(EDIT) Well i decided to try now. There is no APN setting under moble network. I checked under stock sense and CM 9.0
Thanks for the replys
Ok here is a little update.
There must be something different in the way ICS stores the phone data that CM doesn't pick up on. Here is what i did.
I decided to install a GB Stock version. After the install I updated my profile again. BTW i had data with the stock GB. I waited about 5 minutes after that to allow the system to settle. After I performed this I decided to restore my CM 9.0 backup. Cleared cache as i did before. Loaded up CM 9.0 and bingo data is back. Not to sure were the issue lies in ICS but will dig into that later. If anyone has an issue similar to mine you can give this a shot to see if it clears up your issue.
Thanks again for reply

I have no way of getting my phone to successfully download apps from the android marketplace. I went from bamf 1.6.3 to the unsigned mr1 stock rom, back to bamf and back to mr1 and nothing works for my phone.
I was thinking of reverting to stock and using my insurance to get a new thunderbolt to start new. Every time i tried to fix the problem i am having i would do a full wipe on my phone through cwr and install my rom then at startup i would link my google and or htcsense account but my phone will not allow me to download anything from the market.
Would verizon be able to tell that i rooted my phone if reverted back to stock, unrooted and claimed insurance?
Don't know if this will help, but have you gone to Applications->Manage->All and find Market & MarketUpdater, Force close them and delete data?
Did you also try using Market Doctor in Titanium Backup to see if that helps?

when you are installing your rom do you Wipe Data/ Wipe Cache/ wipe Dalvik (under advance tab)? To me it does not sound like a hardware issue. Also try airplane mode and use wifi to get to market and see if it would let you download something.

To answer this question: if you revert back to non-root, S-ON using a signed ROM and Radio, then no, they will never know.
Ok i did try the tips from nero, didn't work. Don't know what is causing this but monday i am going to stock and s-on and trade it in.
Ok to anyone that has ever had the problem where you couldn't download android market apps, i fixed my problem. I have no idea how i exactly fixed it but i will tell you everything i did before it worked right again. I formatted my sd card, system, data, cache in clockworkmod recovery. I then i installed my rom (bamf remix 1.6.3). I used titanium backups market doctor (it told me no links were found). I synced my google account, htc account and in my privacy settings i checked backup and restore. I synced my phone and let it finish before doings anything. I used my application settings to force close market app and updater then cleared data. Lastly i used super one click and re rooted my phone and then enabled non market apps.
What ever i did i fixed my problem, will link this to bamf remix thread and thank everyone that put up with and helped me
I had this same problem, and thought that I was screwed, but what solved it for me was a battery pull. I got so pissed trying everything that I could, I just pulled the battery and went to sleep.
When I got up, it was syncing just fine.
There are quite a few threads on this subject since I have lurked these forums. Wonder where the problem is.

I had a similar problem a while back and it drove me nuts and I finally figured out why. It was because I have changed some settings in my google account that required a credit card and I never supplied the info. For me it was google adsense for my blog, which I ended up getting rid of, but once I finished the setup of that section of my account I was downloading from the market again.
So, before I start this, Yes I was a noob. I didnt make a nandroid backup from when I first rooted my phone and everything worked 100%. I didnt read, and I guess its now biting me in the ass.
The past few months Ive been having issues with Wifi, it continuously says "Unable to scan for networks". I did a factory reset about a week and a half ago and for the first time my wifi was able to connect, however it was dropping out every couple minutes. Wouldnt even stay connected to install any market updates.
I figured that it was something with my dying router(Which Ive since replaced) so I flashed in BAMF to see if I could keep my wifi connection with another rom. Ive been using VirusROM(Love it even though its out od date). I wiped and flashed in BAMF, and restarted. When I restarted, I had no wifi again. Since then, Ive been trying out different ROMS and kernels in hopes that I would find something that would fix it. Nothing did.
After this I figured that I would just do another factory reset and go from there, however with all of the times Ive done the factory resets it never actually gets reset. Does it wipe my info? Yes, but it boots back up with all of the portions of whatever ROM I had installed last. Not reset. So now Ive ended up with two problems.
1. I still have no wifi
2. I cant factory reset so that I can figure out what is going on with my wifi.
Ive wiped Cache/Batt Stats/Davlick and done a factory reset literally six times in a row to hopefully clean EVERYTHING OUT to no avail. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I hope Im just missing something small because Im still new to android.
Edit: I DO NOT use kernel manager and I dont use ROM manager to flash it in, I flash everything in through recovery.

I'm sure there's an RUU out there that will take your phone back to stock but I honestly doubt that's the issue here. What radio version are you using? Have you tried flashing different radios to see if that would fix it. You can find a list here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045081. Also what ROM are you currently on?
When you install a ROM, it modifies the /system directory which is responsible for everything, how the rom looks, included apps, drivers etc.
When you do a factory reset, I'm guessing through recovery, it is only clearing the /data and /cache partitions.
You will have to flash a stock RUU to get it to truly go back to the day you got it.
Here are instructions on how to return to stock:

The ROM Ive been on hasnt mattered. Ive jumped through BAMF, the new Cubed Rom, the Deodexed stock debloat and Virus' Airborne(which is my daily driver). Ive done the different radios. I was on the v2 leaked for a while, then I switched to the new 3g and old 4g to see if its worked but it hasnt. I may have to try out the original one and see if that works, but I havent had wifi since before I flashed in the leaked radio when it came out.

Gotcha. Trying this now. I will make sure to make a nandroid this time if it works. lol.
@isdnmatt: Thanks, that got rid of my recovery problem
Still having wifi issue though. 100% out of the box stock and I get the "Unable to scan for networks
**** me, I should have read that before I did it. Now I have to reroot. Goddamnit.
Have had the same problem with WiFi before and after ADB root. It will sometimes forget both my home and work networks. I've found the problem usually occurs when I'm connected then move put of range. A reboot fixes the problem sometimes. Other times I have to re-enter my settings. I'm still on the stock Rom, nothing custom.

Thats a separate issue than what Im having. Im not having issues with it forgetting my networks. I cant scan for networks.
I am thinking of downgrading the radio.
EDIT: after LOTS of research here, I upgraded to MR2 and Gingervitis. All of my WiFi issues are gone.
Sent from my TBolt using XDA Premium App
I've tried it all folks. New kernels, factory reset, different radios, different ROMs. Every-thing. The WiFi will turn on for a quick second and I will get an error message "Unable to scan for networks" and then the Wifi will just turn on and off on and off over and over again. I've even deleted the files in the data/dhcp and data/wifi folders. Rebooted, still same issue. I've deleted the files and flashed a kernel and rebooted, still same issue.
Of course I am still in contract and will have to purchase a new phone outright from Verizon if I can't get this issue resolved......
I don't know what else to do here.....
Did you try formatting data and system before installing a new rom from recovery? If that doesn't work i would say its a hardware issue. You're not restoring system data with any backup programs are you?

I've wiped pretty much everything known to man on the phone. The ROM installs are all "fresh" I haven't tried to install any APPS on the phone. Just wipe everything, factory reset / Dalvik Cache, all of it... install fresh ROM. Try to turn on Wifi, phone boot loops. No matter what ROM I install, still same issue with Wifi / boot looping.
Well guess we can close this out. I went out and paid full boat for a Samsung Nexus since I couldn't fix this issue.
I'd like to reopen this topic. I had been running Bamf Forever 1.10, but last night I decided to try another ROM because it's been running really slow for some reason.
Did a wipe (factory reset, Dalvik cache) and installed Thunderstick. Now WiFi is broken -- the exact same problem as described in the original post. I tried flashing a new kernel and new radios, and cannot get WiFi to work.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Will flashing back to stock ROM/unrooting help?
Thanks!
@ajoesq I had the same problem when i installed thunderstick thru boot manager. My wifi stopped and I could get it going on my phone rom. So i booted back into thunderstick and wifi was working. Booted back to hte phone rom then into recovery and then i flashed my phone rom again without wiping or anything (Thunbershed V1.2) and it worked fine. wifi started agian.

Run a logcat when you try to turn wifi on. Put the output on pastebin.com and post the link. This might tell us what the problem is.
I'd make sure that the radio(s) were at least at the minimum of what the ROM called for.

So I was running a Shomans rom really liked it but decided I wanted to run 2.3.6 again rooted so I reverted back to stock build and now my modem dont seem to be working anymore it picks up signal then right back out my wifi works fine but cant make any calls or anything. Ive cleared data/factory reset even ran with a unrooted build but same issue.
Check your apn settings
Depends on a lot. Apn settings. The modem ur using. Did u do a full wipe between builds. (No this is not factory reset. A full wipe includes wiping /system /data /cache /dalvik partitions.) What apps do u have installed? Anything to turn on/off data like a power saving app?

full wipe, no miss
Ok, Sorry for the delay in response. So what it looks like is my modem it will have no service turning on then goes in and out and just drops it for a while. I starts working randomly. Like from Edge to 3G nework change I lose service. I went from ShoMans build to the stock build. I didnt wipe everything just factory reset. As Im a noob and just starting to get into all of this I dont really know how to do that step.
Just a interesting observation. I took my sim out and sd card restarted my phone and instantly had signal. Emergency calls only but it had service from the start as mine goes in and out for 5-10 mins before having and maintaining a signal. Wierd.
Well Ive fix the issue it wasnt a full wipe that solved it. The Build I used to go back to stock something was wrong with it. I grabbed the build from Entrophys back to stock. It was creepyncrawly's post that took it back to a stock build and able to fix the modem from going in and out. Thanks Creepy!
The one that didn't work was probably a bad download, or a bad flash.
Hello all.
New poster here, been coming here for some time though for the loads of great information and generally helpful people.
I'm having an issue with my Honor 5x, and I seem to be the only one i can find on this forum having this issue.
The issue that I am having is that I lose the ability to connect to the cellular networks (I am actually running dual-sim) when I load a custom ROM after the first reboot.. The first time this happened, it even lost the IMEI numbers (WTF). I restored from the backup I made, and tried again. I got the same result, after the first reboot, it can no longer find the cellular networks, and when i try to search for network providers, it gives me an error simply saying "Error searching for networks." Restore backup again, flash resurrection rom to see if maybe CM13 is just being stupid with my phone, got no signal right off the bat, and could not find networks.
At this point, I restored the stock recovery, and let it recover my phone to stock, which is where I am at the moment, since it works. Also noteworthy, that every time I restored from backup, the phone had no problems at all connecting to the cellular networks. as well, it never had an issue through all of this with connecting to WiFi.
Relevant Information:
Phone Model: KIW-L24
Build Number: KIW-L24C567B331
Emui Version: 4.0
Android Version: 6.01
Kernel Version: 3.10.49-g472a5b3
Location: United states
Carriers: Cricket, MetroPCS
Bootloader is unlocked
I have not restored root access
I have Flashed TWRP and made a full backup (again)
I'm getting the feeling that it is due to to something that I have forgotten, but I can't seem to think of anything.
Help?
So close, but no cigar.
Still having issues, here's what Ive done so far:
Restored phone completely to stock, leaving only an unlocked bootloader.
Loaded the latest version of TWRP
Re-Rooted the phone
Made a complete backup of the phone, with no partitions left unchecked, in case of a catastrophic failure
Used TWRP to wipe Dalvik/ART, Cache, System, & Data
Loaded the latest CM13 nightly build
Loaded GApps pico version (I don't use many of the Google apps, so I prefer to download the ones that I want)
Wiped Dalvik/ART
Rebooted Phone
At this point, the phone went about its first boot business, loading stuff in the background, optimizing apps for the first use.
I skipped almost all of the first-time setup stuff, no sense in setting it all up if it didn't work this time as well, but connected to WiFi, selected the primary SIM, and activated data on that SIM. This is all normal from my other attempts as well.
Rebooted the phone, when it came back up, I had signal on my phone, and it successfully sent and received messages.
Added my Google account, rebooted again, not getting signal. checked network operator settings, and I get the message stating "Error searching for networks" for both SIM cards.
Removed Google account, changed SElinux settings to permissive, soft reboot, no change.
In the past, I did try wiping Dalvik/ART & cache once this happened, but the only thing that changed is that it caused the process com.android.phone to crash on me repeatedly.
Currently digging around on the net some more to see if maybe there's something that I missed.
Try 1 Sim? Its some bug with dual sim i guess
I will try that when I get a chance, I am currently trying to restore the phone back to stock again after another failed attempt.
Also noteworthy, I had it completely lose the sim cards on me after a restore to the working stock backup that i made earlier in the day yesterday, I had to completely revert to stock (Restore stock recovery, let it rest the phone to stock) then the SIM cards started working again.
This is starting to get rather frustrating.
I'll keep you updated, as I've kinda decided to make this a log of sorts of my experience with this.

i dont really know what to do, could the problem be MODEM.img???
Im having the exact same Issue, All roms loose the SIM card so I loose all signal and basically everything... a restart sometimes helps it, tried installing different ROMS, going back to STOCk 5.0.1 or 6.0.1 nothing Helps... NO clue what to do.
Same issue here. Happens on every Rom.
EDIT: Using KIW-L21 (UK)
Unlocked, single sim.
Maybe the it has something to do with modem.img
