Blue?-Gray wifi/data/bt - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Don't have the blue on this phone like the nexus. Everything is connecting fine but I never have a blue icon. Great signal, connecting fine to g services, just never have the blue?
Normal for this phone? Rooted or stock. I get the Same thing.

Thanks. Makes sense. Guess I need a rom!

Data - Gone? Help?

Okay, I live in Grand Rapids area if that makes any difference. But everything was running fine and dandy on BAMF stripped 2.1. Then, yesterday, my data cut out completely. Wouldn't come back with a reboot, multiple toggles from data on/off, battery pull, nothing worked. So I decided I'd switch ROMS to Gingertheory 4.5. That worked for a little bit, but then it cut out again. So then I switched from the MR2 radio to MR2.5. That also worked for a little bit, but now it's cut out again. I feel like it might be a hardware issue... I don't know what to do!! Heeelllllppppppppp!!!

Try removing the SIM card and putting back in, or (as in my case) the SIM card had gone bad and needed to be replaced at the Verizon store.

Try *228 and update your PRL. if that doesn't work. ..
Try installing a Froyo Rom.. (I would recommend MR2 Froyo 1.66 plainjane by Jcase).
See if that works.. Data issues are usually radio/sim card etc.. more than ROM.. but it could be ROM too..

I had this happen to me a while back on my first TBolt - I ended up having to replace it.

Well 3g or 1x will pop up every once in awhile for a short moment, but then it will go away again... The rest of the time I have absolutely no data, not even 1x.

...anybody? or is my baby broken?
I'm going back to plainjane v1 and the 223r radio. See how that works. If that doesn't work, then idk what. I'll probably need a new TB... :'(

Didn't work. I have consistent 1x though! Hoping for just an outage...
Damn TB always has data issues. I would just wait it out

Well, I guess you were right. While all my friends had data, I did not. It came back today...
My SIM died on me this morning. I was basically sitting in the shadow of a tower and could not get data, even though i had full bars, until i switched to CDMA only mode. Stopped by the vzw store after work, tested my SIM in another TB, did the same thing, 10 minutes later I was leaving with a new SIM and working 3G

Random question from a Nexus owner

Do the Wifi and Signal bars turn from grey to blue on the ICS Touchwiz software like they do on the Nexus indicating its connected to Googles servers or are they always grey?
Only reason I ask is I bought my Mrs an S2 yesterday, upgraded it to ICS and can see the bars stay grey.
Thanks in advance
Stret
The S2 doesn't have aosp ICS, but it has a skin on top. It doesn't have that functionality, along with a few additions and subtractions

liquid jb RC7 - loosing 4G

Hello,
I hope I'm in the right section about this. I installed the liquid jb rc7 and the gapps 4.2 and I love it. However, I have a problem with loosing my 4G when I make a phone call. My icon says from 4G to 3G and to H. At one point I saw my signal icon turn to blue in color to grey. After couple of minutes, the 4G icon will come back and everything is good unless of course I make another phone call.
I heard something about flashing modems should help but I don't know where to get those
Thank you guys in advance.
Do you in fact actually lose your 4g though, or is it just a minor flatulence. I'd try a speedtest when this takes place to gather better insight.

Hello,
Thank you for.your response and I apologize for my late reply. Yes the 4G disappears and my speed test is very slow or doesn't work anymore. Basically I would be sitting in a same place, I will browse the internet, Facebook, speed test etc and its great. I would do this sitting in my couch for about 30 minutes. And as soon as I dial a phone number from my Dialer my 4G icon from my notification bar will turn to H, then switches to 3G, E, etc. At This Time internet connection is Slow to almost unusable. Eventually it will go back to 4G but at 1 point it took so long that I just flashed back to padawan ICS.
Hope this helps. Thank you..

I have this problem also I did all the things to unlock my bootloader, root, and then did S-Off. Then flashed a rom everything works except when I try to make a call 4g drops off and I get text that says unfortunately stopped working with OK which I click later 4g turns back on and every time I try to call same thing happens. I re-locked bootloader and flashed RUU but after everything is done I still have same problem. Does anyone here have any idea how I can correct this problem?

[Q] Where did the white signal bars go?

Hi there, probably this is just a dumb question but I'm having this issue on my SGS2:
When I turn on a connection (3G or WiFi) my signal bars are blue and everything works fine (Google services too), but if I have no connection enabled my signal bars stay all grey and none is white, I mean I can't see the gsm signal level. On the countrary, if I expand the notification drawer, the icon that show the signal level works fine and displays the white bars.
So the problem is not that I can't get the blue bars, but that I can't get the white ones!
I've started having this issue after installing Vanilla Rootbox 3.8 ROM. Now I'm on JellyBam 6.5 and the problem is still there.
Factory reset didn't fix that?

Unfortunately not, I made a clean install of JellyBam, I flashed also a different Kernel and Modem, but the issue is still there.
After the installation I restored my Titanium backups, could it be possible that this "restored" the issue too?
jellybam is going out of the business, try another ROM after a clean install and that issue will go away.

I think you're right, do you have any suggestion for a good CM/AOKP ROM? I tried Vanilla RootBox as I said, but it seemed to unleash some wild bugs...
supernexus is supposed to be awesome.

Weak bluetooth connection AOSP

Just wondering if there was anything i could do to help my bluetooth connection with AOSP roms. I connect just fine but my signal is very weak. If i have my phone in my back pocket and am outside in an open area it skips a lot. If im in a building or room it works fine. Ive tried a few roms and they all are the same in this.
Does it happen on stock? Maybe your bluetooth chip(s) are damanged. Try doing a total restore through the LG flash Tool that way the firmware/software gets fixed.
No on stock it works fine.

Unfortunately all AOSP ROMs have this problem. It is frustrating, but something I have accepted for now.
Good Luck
