im on the stock 2.3.3 and i am unable to download apps over 3G
However it works over wifi
I have rebooted many times, cleared market data and catch. I have also reinstalled the rom but no changes.
anyone know what to do?
also my apn's are correct.
Please help
I had the same problem where it would hang on "starting download". I just waited and they eventually all came at once and the hanging stopped.
No that is not the problem.
I get an error message when I try to download an app over 3g . With no error code.
I even updated the market and nothing changed
I had the same problem in 2.1, i solved it by modifying the apn settings: in the apn settings create a new apn and only introduce the name and the apn, no proxy no port, no nothing. It should work let me know if it does
Sent from my x10a (still running 2.1 sadly) using XDA App
Thanks so much. It worked.

Same problem.
Can you illustrate the detail what to do?
Thanks.
I removed the port and proxy from the data apn. But now I went to TW Rom and no problems.
Fixing mobile data (3g) after installing Cyanogenmod 7 (nightly)
Hello all. I'm writing this as a long-time lurker and custom ROM / kernel user, who has been helped along greatly by this forum.
I had a long-standing issue that I couldn't find any clarity on: my mobile data access didn't work after switching to custom Roms/Kernels from LG's original Froyo Rom.
After months of thinking it was just an odd bug, and something to live with (since I rarely use data), I decided to look a little deeper into the problem. I found it difficult to even find information on the problem - there's a lot of bad information, and a lot of hard-to-read information from friendly, but not perfectly fluent English speakers.
In short, I'm hoping that others who are struggling with this issue will find this post with some Googling, and won't have to be as confused as I was.
After doing the following, I have everything working perfectly and here's how I did it:
1) I knew that the right baseband (under About Phone, in Settings) had something to do with mobile connections, including 3g data authentication and transfer. I found that v10 (and older) basebands are considered the 'old' baseband, while v20 basebands are considered 'new' basebands.
2) Cyanogenmod often reports the baseband incorrectly, so finding out what baseband you're on is unreliable through the About Phone menu, if you're already on CM7.
3) There are some scary sounding techniques to update your baseband (one involves using a poorly documented program called 'LGMDP-v1.5.exe'). These techniques can apparently brick your phone, so I avoided them. I might be wrong on some of the details here, so let me know!
4) I instead obtained the latest baseband by simply letting the LG update software (in my case from LG.ca) update my phone to Android 2.3. I noticed that I now had baseband v20. My mobile data worked!
5) I then re-rooted the phone, using SuperOneClick.
6) Installed the latest CM7 nightly. Mobile data no longer worked
6.5) I should mention, I tried other ROM/Kernel combinations and ended up having crashes and hangs on boot - thankfully I could use 'adb reboot recovery' to get back to Clockwork Recovery, when even holding various keys on reboot to do this didn't work).
7) Installed the wonderful ta-gb 1.1 kernel (thanks to all of the devs who worked on this and others like it).
8) And lastly (and possibly most importantly) I came across this:
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...gingerbread/prebuilt/common/etc/apns-conf.xml
It's a list of APN information, which corresponds to different carriers, and appears to be necessary for mobile data connections. My carrier (Koodo) was not listed here, and therefore appears to not be included in even the latest Cyanogenmod 7 (as of Feb 2012).
9) This led me to find this: http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/wiki/APNlist
Which happened to include the APN information for my carrier that I needed to put in, under Mobile Networks > Access Point Names.
Inputting that information made my 3g connection start up instantly. I was able to check that things looked good by typing *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer, and looking under Phone Information.
Maybe you're a veteran CM7 user, and think this is obvious newb stuff, but I want to leave this thread here for any other users who were stuck as long as I was.
If you fixed this issue with a different method, please share what you did here. If you're a ROM/Kernel dev with more insight on anything that I covered, please comment.
Cheers.
Are you doing this on v20 baseband?
I also have trouble with data on nightly's. I know DJ posted on the cyanogen forum today, saying Adam got a new Sim (128k, the ones causing problems) for testing. There should be a fix soon, fixing this problem.

Yes. Is your carrier's APN information available to try all that I wrote above?

You should be able to get all your apn information from your carrier provider even if cyanogenmod doesnt have it.
Apn is nothing to do with being a veteran cm user or that, you used to always have to enter that kind of stuff in the old phones when you used g and 3g, in my case my carrier would sms me the settigs automatically, such as it still does for my nokia e63

Good to know!
I have installed the nightlyfoure v3.8 and I am not getting 3g.I am getting edge connection. When I activate 3g it shows I have only gprs. I live in a place where 3g is available and I have v20g baseband.
Can you also tell us the procedure to edit/overwrite the original apns-config.xml if you did so? Thank you dude

Is your carrier listed in either of the links I posted about in step 8 or 9?

I didn't edit 'apns-conf.xml', but I did find my carrier information in the link I posted in step 9) and typed it in manually into Access Point Names.
I suppose you could edit the apns-conf.xml file either in the source code, and compile CM7 yourself (time consuming). Or you could use the adb program that comes with the Android developer kit, and shell into the rooted phone (to see it, do: adb shell; cd /etc; ls). You could then probably edit it in place (might be risky), or pull the file, edit it, and then push it back with various adb commands that you can google
The code.google.com link I posted above might be the best way to request your APN details get added to the file in the next CM7 release.

Perfect, thanks but wait wait wait! You also faced the "not able to save APNs" problem? Also, I've just found out that my carrier (Vodafone IT) is listed among other carriers in APNlist you've linked... what's the deal?
(please be patient with me dude, I might seem really dumb but... I'm learning as I go )
My provider's APN is already added.
But sometimes, it fails to connect to DATA let it be 2G/3G.
Reboot solves it....

Same issue.. pushed the updated apn-conf.xml to /etc but in my settings where the apns should show up do not. I also can not save the apn when i manually input it. (tmobile)

I did not encounter this problem. Does anyone else have any input on this issue?
Thank you bambu85 I was stuck in the same situation for the longest time. I am using oxygen mod and your post helped me greatly. Data is now working! Sure the information might already be there but for us koodoers it's not so easy to decipher. Thanks

Plus one when putting in the apn manually and press save it does not save it I only had this problem with new baseband ROMs

Hi guys, I really need some help here
My problem is that I can't download anything on my carrier network. I can download on wifi. When I try downloading it just keeps saying "downloading" and after a long time comes up with the 495 error. This goes for apps in store as well as attachments and random files online. Everything else works as far as I can tell.it started when I flashed to cm9
I'm running cm9 nightly 20120413
(Don't really understand the following)
Baseband xxki4
Any help would be great, I don't know if its my firmware or my carrier that's the problem
I've done all the resets,wipes and clear cache, I've factory reset as well
Thanks

Go to your aps setting and fing google framwork service and Clear data and cache, force stop and restart your phone, that could sort out the problem, i had a simler problem and this fix worked for me.
Thanks for replying. I tried it and it doesn't solve my problem. I just get stuck on downloading in the Google play store and when downloading files. I've looked for a while and haven't seen anyone else with this issue.
Check with your carrier that you have the correct APN settings, sometimes the ones that are loaded into CM by default are incorrect or incorrectly entered, this would cause you to not be able to download while on mobile data but wifi would be unaffected.
Thanks, that was the solution. I didn't think to check because I already had internet working, just not downloading. There were several apn and it was on the wrong one. (I changed it from mobile to internet). Thanks for both your help
Hey guys,
I've got a problem with my WiFi-Adapter. That Problem exists now for a few months. When i tap on "enable WiFi" it initializes the WiFi module but after some moments it turns off again. It's definitely a software related problem so pls help me. I've been trying to fix that by my own but I don't know where to begin to fix this. That all began when I used the normal Stock Rom. Currently I'm using an unofficial CM11. The system change didn't change anything. Quite annoying...
In hope for help!

Is your Wifi mac address unavailable,if yes we have same problem,i tried flashing new kdz,and changing numerous roms but problem still persist.
Can you go to system/etc/wifi and see if you got nvram.txt file,mac address is stored there,if that file exist maybe we can fix it
Hi n0p3zz,
sorry for answering that late. I've been busy a lot so I didn't have time to care about my phone.
So I just looked up what you said and I didn't find that .txt-file. What i found are several .cfg-files. My ROM is CM 11 Unofficial, if that helps you in any way. My problem is that i cant't transfer any files from my Phone to my PC.
I think I've messed up again. Whenever I try to turn my wifi on, it gets stuck at the "turning on" status and then crashes after a couple of minutes. I have no error messages. It just closes after some time. The last thing I remember I did regarding wifi was to recover a stored password using Wifi Password Recovery App. Then this happened.
My phone is rooted and I have cwm. I've tried basic troubleshooting like power cycling, deleting wpa supplicant file (found in a post somewhere), tried turning wifi on using allsahare play, untweaking internet, but they just didn't work.
I'm ready to flash a stock ROM. But I'm just curious if you have any other suggestions before I do it because I've read some posts saying that reflashing didn't work as well.
Please help XDA Developers!
I guess no one has the solution yet. But I have discovered something, and I hope this would help. I found the file, init.qcom.wifi.sh, using root browser. I executed it and I got a script output stating an error. WI-FI chip ID is not specified. I have attached screenshots so you may as well check them out. Also, I noticed the files under date\misc\wifi are all 0.00 B which i think means they are empty. Please help experts.

First of all you've got to flash any custom rom available in order to use wifi again !!!
Now regarding this issue u've just mentioned I'll try to investigate it further !!!
Thanks man. I flashed JASP ROM and its working fine now.
Didnt work

Try reverting back to stock temporarely with Odin, this happens in my Note 3 and used to do the same in my S2, but only with the proximity sensor. The idea is the same, replace all settings to stock and flash whatever you want after (boot the stock though and test wifi just in case).
Why this works i have no idea, but it saved my arse loads of times. I can guess some internal devices might have flags configured which could be chip based rather then ROM/emmc related, but that is only my supposition.
