[SOLVED][Q][CM11] Mobile network state disconnected & phone wakelock - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Due to instability issues in the latest nightlies, I clean flashed and reverted back to CM11 milestone 5. After doing this, I haven't been able to get mobile data. Voice and sms work fine, just "mobile network state disconnected" and no data connectivity. Also after flashing back to M5, "Phone" seems to prevent the device from sleeping. In battery stats, the device is always awake, with "Phone" using the majority of the batter.
I've tried re-flashing CM11 M5 multiple times, I've also flashed different modems, and I've also called AT&T to reset my internet connectivity. Nothing has worked thus far. Any suggestions? :good:
UPDATE/SOLUTION:
I got mobile data back by going back to stock, clean flashing AOKP (which works with mobile data), then dirty flash to CM11. Quite unorthodox, probably not the best solution, but it's the only 'fix' that has worked!!
I've tried many other suggestions, such as the "patched" modems & kernels, to no avail. Finally this works, dreams do come true

UPDATE: I tried ODINing back to stop 4.3 ROM, on which data was working again. However, upon flashing back to CM11, data stopped working once again. I tried flashing AOKP, which *did* get data back, so I'm assuming this is a CM11-exclusive problem.
I really don't know how the CM11 data problem persisted even after flashing back to stock and then re-flashing CM11. What could've gone wrong? Anyways, I guess I'm sticking to AOKP for the time being.

Which AOKP rom you using? Is it for Kit Kat 4.4.2?

Have you got a link to the rom - any issues with Wi-Fi or 3G/Mobile Data? This CM 11 rom I have is awesome but it's a pain that the 3G/Mobile data just doesn't work at all.

If you look on that thread, try installing the specified modem and kernel. Hope this helps.

Did you install the patched kernel/modem while on stock ROM or on a custom ROM?

Got the 4.3 stock ROM from sammobile then installed the kernel and modem from TWRP recovery - haven't tried a custom ROM yet but I presume it'd work in the same way

[Q] ParanoidAndroid (and other) JB ROMs - Can't get mobile network to work

I can't post to the dev forum, so maybe someone over here can help:
I tried the PA ROM, because I really love the hybrid mode. The ROM has worked fine and looks great, but whatever version I flash, the mobile network, both data and phone, simply doesn't work.
It briefly connects to my provider (drei.at) and immediately disconnects, no matter whether I have data connection enabled or not.
Have tried this with all available versions of PA and did the usual routine: wipe, format system, wipe data. I even went totally back to a stock ROM, tried various modems, the current one being XXDLH9, which works just fine on [email protected] 0.6 ROM.
Had the same problem with Omega, FoxHound, and god knows what other ROMs I tried. No matter what, the only JB ROM actually working is [email protected] 0.6, that's it.
Is this a known phenomenon or have I overlooked something obvious?
The phone used to be a branded and simlocked Austrian T-Mobile, but ever since it has been debranded and SIM unlocked.
Any ideas?
All i can suggest is your apn settings?
Can try Offline SIM APN Database (get on Google Play) to insert the correct apn settings.

Thank you for the suggestion. The APN settings on a fresh install, all wiped, are correct and the same as in a working setup.
Any other ideas? Am I really the only one with that problem?
Modem tried APN correct .
Suggest next step is factory reset ..
Step after that is to install an official stock rom .
Others who may have a problem post in the roms thread .

Did a factory reset, totally clean install with everything wiped.
Also, did a clean wipe and installed official stock ROM. Lost root, started from scratch and still didn't work.
I'd love to post in the ROM forums, but haven't yet posted my mandatory 10 postings.. Maybe this thread helps me to reach that limit

No, that's not what I said. Stock ROMs work just fine; I actually just flashed the latest leak (DLI5) and had no problems with the network. The problem hasn't changed, so it's what I wrote in the OP: Only JB to work ist latest leak and [email protected] 0.6. All others can be installed but have not network connection other than WiFi.

Have you tried flashing a new baseband? i had the same problem, when flashing the franco. Kernel..
or, go back stock, then reflash the desired ROM

Thanks for trying to help.
Yes, I have been playing around with all kinds of basebands, trying to flash modems etc. but that does not seem to be the reason for it. I have had different modems working and the very same modems simply did not work with PA at all. Best example ist yesterday's leak DLI5 which I flashed and had a virgin like system working just fine with my network. I then flashed the PA ROM, which then had the same baseband as the latest stock ROM, but, alas, same story: No network.
The weird thing is the brief connect it always shows in the status bar. It lasts roughly 4-5 seconds and then disconnects again, only showing the empty network status display.
It really sucks, because I find the idea of hybrid ROMs really appealing, in fact, this seems to me as a truly superior way of making use of the 720p display.
Need to try logcat next to see whether the connect/disconnect somehow can be monitored from there. Will report on that.

I just installed ParanoidAndroid. I'm kind of a noob to all of this.
I understand some, but not all.
My mobile networks are not working.
I don't get any notification at the top of the screen either saying I'm on a mobile network.
I've messed around with the APN settings. It seems that every now and then it'll connect for a brief moment, but I can't really do anything unless I'm connected to WiFi.
Any help would be appreciated.
I came from a stock phone rooted.
Installed this and now I'm here.
Please HELP!!

Turns out I just had crappy reception at home.
I wanted to get 3+ but something got in the way and had to go with the 2.+
Sorry for not understanding, but what is AOSP? I see that, but I don't get what is what.
ASOP = Android Open Source Project.. They are best but not that much good at battery
Spend some time on xda and Google your doubts.. You'll surely understand everything from android

Cm 9-20121028

Today I updated to the CM 9-20121028-nightly-haida. Since then I have no more wireless. The whole point is greyed out and when I go into the settings in the Wi-Fi, he veruscht to activate all the time. Is this a known bug? Is that still the case with several? Is there a workaround? Previously, I had the cm-9-20121014-NIGHTLY-haida because everything worked.

did you flashed new kernel. did you wiped cache and dalvik cache?
in your thread is no question. its not quite good to open new threads like this - furthermore you could have found the answer in CM9.1 thread..youst to mention..
best regards
I have no installed the cm-9-20121021-NIGHTLY. With this version, I can use WIFI. Is the kernel different from this to cm-9-20121028-NIGHTLY?

cant tell in which way the kernel differs-read changelog for information. but since your wifi doesnt works i suggest to flash new kernel and wipe. and if kernel is provided with rom update i would always recommend to flash it!

Mobile Data not working on AOSP Roms

Hello there,
I'm having some frustration issues lately with any AOSP ROM
I recently began to notice that mobile data refused to work (it only worked once on the first setup where you choose your language, etc.), after flashing a new kitkat rom. I also noticed that my phone could not hold a stable wifi connection with any router.
No amount of rebooting or turning airplane mode on/off would do anything, so I decided to flash my previous ROM that I was using earlier with no issues, and to my surprise, found it was also having this issue.
Thinking it was a hardware issue, I reverted back to stock using an RUU, and everything worked perfectly. Mobile data, wifi, everything.
I tried flashing an AOSP Rom after unlocking for a second time, and just like previously mobile data didn't work, but after flashing any stock based rom like Venom ROM, it does. Any suggestions?
TL;DR: My Droid DNA's mobile data and wifi suddenly only works on stock-based roms, even after a running an RUU
The ROM I updated to was: Omnirom 4.4.1
The ROM I had previously was: Carbon Rom 4.3.1
The ROMs with working data: Venom, stock, and everything else based off of stock.
Thanks in advance :good:

I would suggest you to flash a radio. If that doesn't work back up any data and flash any stock based rom including stock recovery. Once it is flashed let it boot and then factory restore in bootloader this will repair any radio partition.

slimkat 4.4.3 working (almost) after official 4.3 update

I was using slimkat 4.4.2 and restored the official samsung rom 4.3 to try a mhl cable. The result as you may know is that I couldn't install any custom rom that wasn't based on samsung's after that.
Searching here in the forums I found some people saying that it was because of a layout change on partitions, others because of knox, or the update in bootloader...
I installed the twrp-2.7.1.0 recovery and tried to install omni rom with pa_gapps, cm11 etc and I always get an error for gapps (couldn't find build.prop or something...). Tried Omega v58 (based on sam) and it worked, then I tried slimkat 4.4.3 weekly and slim_AIO_gapps (advanced wipe, everything but extsd, format data) and it installed everything fine.
It's almost perfect but now I have only a small problem... when I plug the headset the audio is really bad and sometimes I can't hear anything ... I tried another kernel with the same result. Tried slimkat 4.4.2 stable, same.
Does it make any sense to anyone here? any sugestions on how to fix? flash something somewhere maybe :x
and what is the real problem after the 4.3 official update? if slimkat is working maybe we can make other roms work too.
Thank you in advance
Do a full wipe, all your previous issues were due to files left over from other firmware.
On the headset, go back to stock firmware after a full wipe. If still the same then it is hardware.

I still can't install most roms even with full wipe (gapps error) after the 4.3 official update but I'm happy with slimkat. I think maybe it works because it just copies the gapps files to android without doing other checks, maybe editing the scripts we can "force" the install of other roms too. If anyone have any info, please tell me.

Oh, I think it was just a series of bad coincidences. Tried the stock firmware and the headset did not work. Seems like my headset broke the same day all that stuff happened, and I tried the one I use on PC but it didn't connect firmly on s3 so the sound was bad too... just tried a new phone headset and it's working fine.. thank you

Wi-Fi on Dirty Unicorns

I've been having some issues with WiFi connecting using Dirty Unicorns, as well as random reboots. And i know several other people have too, from looking through that thread. I even posted a bug report on their Jira bug tracking system.
The jewel maintainer for DU spoke with another maintainer of the ROM for a different device (who also runs it on a Jewel) and neither one of them is having the same problems, so it seems like it's probably something on my end. The one thing that we noticed was different was the radios.
I ran the RUU to get my new partitions, which updated me to the latest radios. Apparently Mazda (as he's known here) used a different method, And still had older radios. His radio is 1.12.11.1119 and he has not experienced any issues.
I'm on 1.13.11.1105 and get random reboots and occasional inability to attach to my home WiFi until I reboot, after which it immediately connects.
I guess I'm wondering, is it advisable to change radios back to an older version, if it had the possibility of correcting my issues? And if so, how do I do it? And if I do it and it doesn't help, can I easily go back to the most recent radio, or do I have to go through the RUU again?
I don't have any experience flashing radios, so if it's different than just flashing a zip, perhaps a tip on how to do it would also be appropriate.
Thanks for any and all advice, I really would appreciate some feedback.
I have ran into a similar wifi problem on the new build posted today. The wifi wont turn at all on this build v7.8

I'm willing to be a guinea pig. I'll do a nandroid of my current setup and do a dirty Flash. I'll let you know how it goes.
Well, I did it. I dirty flashed and I have Wi-Fi. Now, since I have my backup, I think I'm going to do a clean flash and see what happens.

Try wiping system and data too (like it says in the Dirty Unicorn ROM's OP.) That's what I did. It might make a difference.

What kernel are you using? I had been using Bubba, but recently I was reading that WiFi doesn't work at all on it, and since it's no longer being supported, i don't think there's much hope of getting it working again.
