I've been tinkering a lot with my razr
roms, fasboot, root, formatting....
last night i was in a bar with my friends and noticed that i cant get any internet access...
i got home, wireless working ok, but no cellular network, everything else is fine
I've tried fastbooting, factory reset, nothing worked
the only thing that made the cellular network come back, is flashing the arctic 3.0.0 rom, but when i flashed back, i lost it again
i cant use the arctic because i need hebrew support and the hebrew mod sends me to bootloop....
i'm clueless and on the verge of breaking my razr in two
please can someone help? any idea?
sorry for the english
thanks....
[update]
just a problem with apn
CLOSED
I've bought a Samsung SGH-I717 locked with Rogers that's was working perfectly with my Koodo sim on LTE. Here's what happened. I was doing all right, starting by unlocking my phone (First success!). Rooting my phone (Second success!!). Installed CWR (Third success!!!) Why stopping there? I wanted to install LiquidSmooth JB. So, I've started the installation following every steps to the letter. Restart the phone... Hello? No more phone. Just got a nice brick...:crying: So, as a humble guy, I sent it to an unbricker. Don't plan to brick it again so to pay for the JTAG won't have been cost wise. I got my phone back (less 85$ ) but...with the AT&T rom (4.0.4). My problem is that my data isn't working anymore. The WIFI works fine but I won't see the LTE logo next to the WIFI one and as soon as I close the WIFI, no more data. I've tried the plain reflash from Kies. It worked, for the flash, but didn't resolved my data connection issue. I've turned on every things in the Wireless settings, it's not from there, I'm sure. Packet Data and roaming are checked. So, what can be my problem? Just to be sure, do I have to use AT&T rom from now on? No more canadian stuff? Thanks from a desperate guy...
You can install CWR and flash Canadian ROM. The ROM will be already rooted. That liquidsmooth ROM broke lots of phones. The ROM was actually for an S3.
It's worst now. :crying::crying::crying: Since the phone was unrooted, I want to root it again. I've followed this steps : droidgator.com/root-att-galaxy-note-sgh-i717-running-android-4-0 and now... It will only boot up to the Samsung logo. I can at least access the download mode. I'm so [email protected][email protected]$ tired of this.
I have a weird situation. My Mobile Data quit working after installing the KitKat update. My DNA is S-off and rooted and has been flashed to Straight Talk and uses Verizon towers in CDMA mode. I did this because Verizon has the best coverage in my area. I also work a lot in Mexico and I recently got this DNA so I could get a TelCel SIM card and use the phone in GSM mode when I'm at work. I was running 4.2.2 prior to the update. Since I was unable to take the OTA update, I flashed the stock firmware and ROM from Santod040 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2560010). After the updates my phone says Mobile Data is Disconnected. It is still showing CDMA mode and I am able to make and receive phone calls normally, just no internet. Anyone have any idea what I need to do to get Mobile Data working?
Do you have "turn off mobile data after long periods of inactivity" enabled? I tried that and lost data, disabled and data came back.

I did have that enabled prior to the update and never had any problems losing data. Since the update I have tried it on and off with no difference. I have also tried turning mobile data and airplane mode on and off with no change.
Another thing that is different since the update is that now when I turn my phone on, I get a message that pops up saying that there is no SIM card detected and that a SIM is required for the phone to operate.

Try putting a layer of clear tape on the backside of the sim card to see if it helps. If it does call HTC , they will send a new sim card tray. Known problem with this device. Also flash the latest radio.

I flashed the latest firmware that included the radio when I flashed the ROM. As far as the SIM tray goes, I don't use a SIM card, I am operating the phone in CDMA mode. I didn't start getting the SIM card message until I flashed the KitKat ROM.

As I said before, my phone has been flashed to Straight Talk's CDMA network so I don't require a SIM. I hadn't been able to find a fix to the Mobile Data problem so I tried calling the OTA number to reprogram the phone to hopefully fix any settings that might be messed up. I had been able to make calls without any issues, except strangely it kept telling me that the phone required a SIM card to operate only when I tried the OTA number. I decided to spend $7 on a Straight Talk SIM card thinking that it would see the SIM card and allow me to call the OTA number. I popped in the SIM card and Mobile Data immediately started working. I never called the OTA number or did anything to activate the SIM. Weird!!!
I have Verizon and I've always had my SIM card. I have no issues calling or getting calls/texts. Just mobile data. It Also seems really slow. I'm used to at minimum 10mb down 5mb up. I'm lucky if I get 10% of that now. That is if I can connect. I had to reload this page 3 times to get it to work.
Ok my phone is beyond f*cked up. I've tried going back to viper 1.3.5 I've flashed recovery and hboot and radio every which way but I can't get my data to work. When it does work I compared it to my wife's dl speed. Mine is 1.6 mb down. 1.2mb up. Wife's gs4 24mb down 22mb up. Tried multiple times same each time. Even on WiFi. Mines 3mb down 1.5mb up. Wife's 26mb down 16mb up. I'm back on viper 3.5.0 sense 5.5 because it seems to actually work occasionally. I've also went completely stock and still having same issue. Any help appreciated.
No one knows how to fix this? I've wiped everything and did a clean flash like I always do to sense 5 stock via ruu. Flashed twrp 6 beta. Then fastboot flashed hboot 4.09 and radio 4.09 and then sjdeloaded nusensesix. Still have horrible/nonexistent data and horrible WiFi speeds. Is there no way to fix this? Do I have to smash my phone and pay $100 to get it replaced? I'd rather not. I'm willing to donate to developers if you can he'll me fix this. I don't do dirty flashes ever. Always clean. Idk how to md5 check but dl and flashing multiple times I doubt that's the issue. I've tried fixing permissions. I've gone completely stock and still have same issue. Only sense 5 stock since I can't find sense 4stock. ive tried viper 1.3.5 3.5.0 4.1.0 and nusensesix. Same all around. Any help appreciated.
Could be your radio partitions are courpted. Read up in this link to reset the partitions. Just make sure you back up your important data as this requires a factory reset, with stock recovery, which wipes the device.

You may have to read back a few pages to get an understanding. Anyway just follow santod40 instructions and you should be fine.

Bringing this back to the Q/A thread so as not to flood the other thread with questions. When you say you swapped SIM cards, did you swap just the card or both the card and tray. Try swapping both card and tray from your wife's phone to yours and see what happens. If it's the same results then most likely your phone is the culprit, if you get good data it's the SIM tray and you can order another one.
ok ive tried RUU again using the exe program and running as administrator. it keeps stopping at 6%(checking header..............) it wont go anymore. i already relocked the device, the thread is closed so i cant post in it...

Been having this problem for a bit. Just removed SIM, blew out with compressed air, cleaned SIM and reinstalled. If it happens again I will try the clear packing tape on the back of the SIM.
I installed Cyanogenmod 11 on my phone and I've been having nothing but problems with APn settings and not being able to send MMS.
I keep getting No APN specified on device and I can't send MMS messages.
I've reinstalled the rom many times reseting factory settings and wiping dalvik cache.
I've tried using APN backup and restore app to backup from stock rom and restore the apn settings to CM 11..
Nothing is working
I'm about to give up and find another rom..
And now for some reason I cant even access the APn settings in CM11.. The menu option isnt there..
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Its a CDMA phone and my carrier is Cricket Wireless its the 3g CDMA plan Galaxy S3 before they merged with aio and now use GSM phones and new plans..
CM 11 - 11-2014078-SNAPSHOT-M8-d2lte
If no one has any suggestions can anyone recommend a good bug free fast and clean rom?
Thanks.
UPDATE:
I've since tried installing Carbon Rom and same issue there.. I can't send MMS messages. Keeps saying no APN specified on device..
I tried looking up Crickets apn settings and entering them manually but every time I change the MNC? setting the APN just vanishes.
I tried just leaving that field alone and just setting the rest but I still couldnt send MMS messages..
I'm going crazy here..
I rooted my phone and now Im stuck on 4.1.2 unless I use a custom rom as rooted my phone wont let me update the stock rom..
I really liked both Cyanogen and Carbon my phone ran AMAZING compared to stock but without MMS messages and constant APN error popups I can't take it...
Any ideas?
How's it going I recently rooted my lg v10 first time I've rooted a phone since the galaxy s3 I've always liked cyanogen mod I was originally on mm I rooted it and the root worked good except if I put a mm ROM on it I can make and receive calls but no data or MMS msgs ,I've had all the same result's with resurrection ROM and cyanogen mod 13, I went and tried cyanogen mod 12.1 and instantly after installing I had data and phone calls worked ..except I kept getting a random black screen glitch where I would have to remove the battery to restart the phone..I don't really care about getting the 12.1 to work but I would like to be on a mm ROM with working data has anyone had this issue and even better has anyone found a fix thank you who ever has any input
Wow, everything packed into one sentence. I had to read it three times before I understood your problem (I think).
Is it so hard to write more than one sentence to make it easier for people willing to help?
Regarding your problem: have you checked the APN settings? A missing APN is the main reason for not having a data connection.
I do have the correct APN settings. I also went into the strore and they put the APN settings in and had the same results
the cm roms for this phone currently have data issues even with the correct apn settings.
