SlimBean Build 6 - Signal strength indicator always on zero - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Just switched from Cyanogenmod 10.1 nightlies to SlimBean build 6. Am enjoying this ROM except for the fact that it never shows that I had any signal.
Even though the signal strench indicator is at zero, I can use the internet over 3G, make phone calls and receive text messages.
Anyone familiar with this issue? Apart from some people mentioning that I should install a different firmware I cannot find anything. Device info has been attached.
Any help would be appreciated.

[Q] Data connection lost after sleep. Normal?

Hi there,
Just wanting to get some support with an issue I am currently having. I have recently rooted and flashed a custom ROM on my galaxy s2 but have come up against a problem. My data connection seems to be quite erratic. I am running the following specs:
Baseband: i9100XXLQ6
Kernel: 3.0.15-CM-g39df795 [email protected] #1
Slim Bean Version: 3.0.0 Official
Build Number: JZO54K
To be more specific. My data signal drops whenever the phones goes to sleep for an extended period. My signal bars remain full, however they are greyed out. I have read that this means I have no connection to Google Services. There is no other issue with data. It works fine with WiFi (no signal drops) and I can still call and receive texts.
Basically, I am new to all this flashing so any help/advice you can provide is great. I have used getRIL to ensure my RIL is the appropriate one for my modem version, everything seems to match there. Any other tricks or fixes I can try? Is it worth flashing a new modem?
Thanks

Just a little more information on this. IT doesn't actually seem like I lose connection during sleep as I still get email and facebook notifications. The loss of connection (blue signal bars to grey signal bars) happens for a couple of seconds when the phone gets unlocked. Is this normal behaviour? It only happens for 5 or so seconds and then the connection is re-established. I have checked and confirmed APNs, used getRIL, anything else worth trying/investigating?

[Q] CM 10.1 signal bar question/issue

Morning all,
Yesterday I installed CM 10.1 on my Droid Razr. Seems to be working OK, but I've noticed that in some places (e.g. my living room), my signal strength meter shows 0-1 bars. I installed OpenSignal, and it's showing full-strength on voice and data, despite the status bar showing little or no signal. I've also tried making calls and surfing, checking email, etc., and it seems to be working fine.
So my question is if anyone else is noticing this behavior, and if there's any way to fix it? It's not a big issue, but I would like to be able to trust my meter w/o having to open another application.
TIA

[Q] Cannot use mobile data

Hi everybody, I am quite frustrated at the moment, since my S2 has driven me up the wall all day long. To cut a long story short, for some reason my mobile data is unusable. For some reason, yesterday I flashed a modem (...KS3 or somethng, i had already used that file previously, and worked), and after rebooting mobile data was gone. Then I don't recall what I did to troubleshoot the issue, but I came across these results:
1 - Managed to get the H+ icon back, but no internet, I could see from the arrows on the icon that it tried to connect but couldn't.
2 - Tried to switch between APNs, but with no success. On PAC rom an apn got the state 1, but still no internet.
3 - Tired with dirty flashing and no success, I decided to start over and do a full wipe and flash of CM11 official and on first boot, still no internet.
Right now it's sitting there, with no icon next to the bars, and i can't make any calls nor send SMSes. What do you advise me to do? I flashed a modem when I was on CM11, right before bosting this and still no luck.
Please give me a hand, I am starting to grow a bit desperate, thinking of an hardware issue. Never did this before, if this can help
EDIT: It is now in state 1, the icon H+ is is there, but i can't access the Internet...

[Q] Samsung Galaxy SII Omnirom Mobile Network Issues

I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 running the Omnirom 4.4.2-20140406-i9100 Nightly.
The issue is that every now and again I can't make calls or recieve calls (I'm basically listed as unavailable for anybody that tries to call me). Even when this happens, signal bar remains full and the phones status page lists the phone as in service and connected to the network. The only way I can fix it is by restarting the phone. Are there any fixes?
- Update the nightly to confirm if your phone has no hardware issues.
- Go back to stock to get the stability in mobile network connection.
Most probably the nightly might have a broken component as these builds are experimental and highly unstable, but no harm in reverting back to stock to ensure your phone's safety.
Thanks, flashed the latest nightly last night. Now I'm waiting to see if it happens again. If it does I might consider flashing a modem that might work better with my carrier. Are there any TWRP flashable modems out there?
Started doing it again this morning, so I changed Network type from 2G/3G Preffered to 3G Only and it started working right away. Still unsure what the cause is though.

Mobile Network Issues, apps Not Connecting

Hello guys, I'm having a huge issue with my mobile network.
For the past two weeks I've not been able to make use of my mobile network correctly, it sometimes works, but most of the time doesn't. The icon in my status bar shows there is activity, it's fully connected to 3G or LTE, even with full bars. But all my apps like Telegram, Pokémon go, Messenger and the likes are stuck "reconnecting" to the network, as if my phone doesn't have any reception at all. At some points even SMS messages refuse to send, even though I've got full reception.
I've already gotten my SIM card switched out, attempted multiple clean flashes and the issue still persists.
Phone: Oneplus One
My current firmware: 0.1.c1.11-00006-M8974AAAAANAZM-1
Current ROM: idprophecy's unofficial optimized lineage-14.1-20180413-UNOFFICIAL-bacon
Current Recovery: Kutep0v TWRP 3.2.1-K2
Is there anything I can do? I'm getting really desperate.
This is my last plead on this forum, as I haven't had any response from anyone since april 25th, I've got nothing else to do but wait. Can't find anything on the internet about this issue, you're my last hope.
Have you tried flashing to stock version?
