Phone freezing when toggling mobile data - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Whenever I toggle mobile data on/off the phone freezes but the power button will still toggle the screen on and off but the device will not respond until it eventually reboots. This happens when I turn wifi off, but not on, or when airplane mode is toggled. I have tried from settings and the status bar.
I'm running Stock, rooted, deodexed from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044351 along with the APN editor flash (method 1) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044449 with Setup Wizard frozen. I also have extsd2internalsd http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2036796 installed to utilize my 64gb sd card.
I tried to get a logcat using adb logcat *:W *:S but it was empty.
Anybody know what's going on before I wipe and try again?
Thanks

As weird as this sounds it appears to have been FB Messenger. Clean installs worked so I reinstalled one by one and this was the only app to cause the device to hot boot when toggling wifi or mobile data.

Nevermind, FB Messenger wasn't the culprit.
It turns out it was the AT&T VM Viewer app (for U-Verse VM). No problems if it's just installed but if you are logged in then whenever the apps loses connectivity (toggling wifi, mobile data, airplane mode, etc) the phone hot boots. This just reminded me the app would FC on my old Incredible 2 when the connection state changed.

Google Talk

Ive tried researching this but I have came up empty handed. It appears once my screen is off google talk is logged out. How do I keep google talk always logged in?
Thanks for any help!

I really hope this isnt a wide spread thing. I use Google talk heavily. I cant afford for it to disconnect upon my screen timing out. I havent used it since I activated my phone to test though.
Maybe check under the power saver option in settings. There is an option to turn off background data when the screen turns off. Maybe that's it?

I will try that setting out and report back

Just uncheck auto away status and it will stop logging out.

Is anyone else having an issue where google talk won't load for them? I touch the icon and it looks like it loads for a second then flashes back to the app drawer. I tried clearing the application data, didn't help, and of course I can't uninstall/reinstall

Yup, I have to restart the phone to get it working. I also notice that Restart does NOT restart the phone for me. It powers it down.

I have both of those exact same problems. Hopefully, the next software update will fix these issues.

How do you refresh your gmail with background data off?

Using cell data (not wifi, because it works fine with wifi), I cant refresh in my gmail app to check for new emails. I leave background data off. This was never an issue with any other device.
Any suggestions?
If I turn background data on, it works just fine, but I prefer to leave it off.
Without background data checked on, I don't believe you can. You could go to the gmail mobile site, but meh...

Why would this new version of gmail act this way but gmail for Gingerbread allowed that function?
Weird!
How'd it work with it off? Do you remember the steps?

No sure what you mean? With account synch off and only 3g, there is always the refresh button for the gmail app...
Never mind, yeah weird

Photon - Woke up this morning to no wifi

I am on the Jokersax cm10. Have been for months. The wifi was working when I went to bed. I've tried rebooting. I've tried wiping my cache. I've tried reflashing my rom. I didn't change anything wifi related before bed. I've enabled and disabled airplane mode. I've disabled and reenabled wifi. This is a strange one. OH, and it will SCAN and find wifi networks (so the wifi isn't totally bad), but when I try to connect it always goes from "connecting" back to not being connected at all no matter what network I try. Also, the icon never shows up on the notification bar.
The last time I had the same problem I had to reboot the WiFi router.

Ding ding, we have a winner. I'd hoped to avoid doing a total wipe, but that fixed it. Thanks guys.

Make sure mobile data is checked.

I would suggest trying a factory reset. Just make sure that you save any data that you want to keep, like messages, contacts and stuff like that before you try to reset.
Also found this video that might help. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNnJnjabXdU

Camera Modes not downloading

When you pull up the modes in the camera, and scroll down the small list you'll see "Download". When I press that, it does nothing. Connected to Mobile Data & Wifi and nothing. There's no slight lag of loading anything. Is there a fix or do I gotta wait for an update?

are you rooted ? and running any room?
I'm having the same problem, tried clearing the camera and galaxy apps caches and rebooting to no avail. My friend has an S6 and doesn't have this problem :/
Did you guys set up your Samsung account? It is needed since these are downloaded via Samsung services, and not Google Play. If you are rooted and/or using custom ROM, do not remove or freeze Samsung market services, and you should be good.
