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.
bump, im having the same issue. viper 4.1.0 sense 6 kitkat 4.4.2. data disconnects randomly and have to reboot to get data back on. data only works for about 5mins after. no other issues. i have flashed the latest radio and twrp 6. ive tried flashing the latest hboot but i cant get it to work. wondering if thats the issue. had the same problem with viper 3.5.0 sense 5.5. any help appreciated.

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.

Alright guys, i've got a weird one. I have tried the stock ROM (3.56), the round 4 rom (dcd 3.2.6), stock radio roms from 3.35.40 to 3.42.50 and this just keeps happening. After I upgraded from a 6.0 rom to a 6.1 rom my mogul has kept getting stuck in roaming and if I turn roaming off I have no signal. After a while I finally get signal but it takes anywhere from 15mins to 6 hours. I'm running PRL 60613.
You guys got any ideas?
i had this problem. for some reason i just reprovisioned my phone and the issue went away. your MDN and MSID numbers. i dont know how this will work for you. good luck.
when you flashed the radio if you let the customizations run from that it could stick you in roaming if its not your carrier that the radio was associated with... solution re flash the radio then before it updates flash the rom
Thanks for the replies guys, but I ended up figuring it out. Cardriver was right, I reset and reprovisioned my phone and the problem went away. Turned out when I upgraded to 6.1 it flashed my radio in the process and for some reason the provisions weren't working right afterward. Apparently it happens occasionally.

Did you upgrade by USB or storage card. I heard this happens with USB alot but not storage card method. I have never had it happen to me using storage card but a few times using USB. Just curious.

By USB, so the pattern fits.
This has never happened before. Only recently it started happening and is killing my battery. Voice roaming is stuck on it seems like and I have bars on my status bar even though I don't have a SIM in it and don't plan on putting one in. Does anyone know how to disable voice roaming as I can't seem to find ANY way? Cheers!
Update: More Info and screenshot.
Added a screenshot or those who may be able to help :/
Hey Wem I got stuck in voice roaming when I flashed the new codefire x rom. I had no idea why and verizon did not help. I flashed back and forth between Nos sense 5 and slim and finally 1 time I flashed the NOS rom I got out of roaming. I cant tell u exactly why or what I did to fix it. Sorry I cant be more specific but I don't know.

I actually think I might have fixed it! If you enable LTE/CDMA/GSM/EvDo and force RUIM and SIM it will disable it, but you have to force the RUIM and SIM. Sadly this is the most you cna disable. As far as I know without airplane mode you can't disable the antenna. PNR is really annoying
Flashed CWM. Couldn't connect to anything. Restored back to Viper. Stuck with Voice roaming.
I tried everything and I cannot get rid of the voice roaming triangle. Data wont work.
I factory resetted, performed an RUU
I am totally at a lose.
Any help please
UPDATE: Fixed
Re-flashed Cyanogenmod, completed setup and performed above steps.
Wiped, factory reset and flashed viper. All is well!
So,
I bought this phone on the day it was launched, its been more than 3 months and had no issue with the device. I rooted the phone , experimented with Xposed and other apps but for the past few days i was experiencing this strange problem. Cellular network was not running on my phone, i changed the sim, swithed the devices on/off several times , did everything i could do in the os, changing the mode to 3G from LTE and vica versa, etc etc .. but still no luck. The cellular network sometimes comes and goes. Then i opted for last resort which was to factory reset the phone, after resetting it the cellular network worked but i don't know if this is a permanent solution. If you have anything to add please share.
Regards,
Saransh
Sorry nothing much to share but i suspect you install some apps or did something to your rom so the network screwed. My suggestion is you nandroid backup every week (at least) so you can revert back when something happened.
Tried factory reset
I have tried factory reset but still having this issue. Maybe it's a hardware issue. I don't get it , everything was working fine few days ago then all of a sudden this **** happened.

Maybe exposed screwed something. Get a microsd card with whatever rom you want in it. reboot to recover and try full format. insert the microsd after then flash a rom. see if it works
Rooted my phone with sudamod rom, Everything is working fine.
This has be happening to me the last couple days. I've done no changes to the software, I did a screen replacement a few weeks ago. Sometimes Wifi will turn on after a while or the SIM card will read and connect to LTE. Trying to decide if the phone is on its last legs or not. I'm on BareCee ROM, have always only used engine95's modified ROMs. Tried flashing the latest modem and the latest partitions if any changes. Also tried deleting the /data/misc/wifi/ folder as suggested in another thread stating a similar SIM issue with no luck.
Can you fix that?

Hi, please tell me if you fixed that problem, I have exactly the same problem right now with my D851 T-Mobile, at first the phone says no sim card, but the sim works with other phones, and I use the phone with wi-fi but since yesterday the wi-fi won't turn on, I did the most common steps, did a restore wiping all my personal data and apps, and installing the original firmware. And nothing happens.
I wiped my LG G2 (vs980...unfortunately) on Monday from an old custom ROM and installed a new CM mod (13). Since then, the phone won't recognize any SIM inserted. I wiped all again, and installed CM 12.1. Same deal. Went back to CM 13 and nothing. Now upgraded to RR 5.8.2 (latest they have for the vs980 model) and still nothing. Everything else works great (apps, wifi, bluetooth, etc), but it still does not see any SIM. I also noticed that when I go into settings and select Cellular Networks, I get a "com.android.phone" error (Not that annoying "Unfortunately..." mess people used to get and it asks if I want to close the app. I have tried clearing all the caches and app data, going into test mode and turning off the radio (several times) for up to an hour, powering fully off, removing the SIM, leaving out for an hour before reinserting and powering back up, and even changing the IMEI number and nothing has worked. By the way, using TWRP 2.8.6.0 to flash my drive.
Oh, and I used 3 different SIM chips and they all work fine in a PUK.
Someone please help. I can't afford a new phone right now.
