I've searched everywhere and have been working on this problem all night. I unlocked the Bootloader and Rooted the phone about a month ago and uninstalled bloatware. Haven't had any issues with the new Android marketplace updates or when it's updated apps on my phone. However, over the past 3 weeks, my 3G connection kept dropping off in the Marketplace and on different apps. It shows up as full bars but they're grayed out. They only turn blue when I connect via WiFi (At least I won't go over my data plan!) This sucks because I've been missing important e-mails because G-mail and other apps will only sync when I'm connected to wireless network.
I've cleared the Dalvik cache, went through and rolled back the Android Market place to the stock version. I also restored my APN settings but I'm at a complete loss since none of these things worked.
I haven't posted much because I'd prefer to read and search for the problem online but I'm coming up short here. Should I return it back to AT&T or is there something else I'm missing?
*EDIT: I also realized that I'm having issues with the Bluetooth connection, the GPS connection recently since the upgrade. Finally, I have not had the fingerprint scanner working since before I've rooted and unlocked the BL.
Hi,
After flashing a build of CM11 back in February, I've had problems with the data-connection (2G/3G/H, etc.). It works when starting the phone, but suddenly it just dies. It looks like it's working, but no data seems to be transferred. I have to turn data off for a minute or five, and back on. The it usually works for a while again, until it dies...again..
I've fullwiped (except SDcard and internal SDcard), and tried several modems. Then I went from CM back to Ultima ROM (based on stock Samsung), and used it for a couple of days. Data worked perfectly. Thinking it solved the problem, I tried Omni again, after wiping/formatting data, system, cache and Dalvik. Installed it, data seems to work, but after a few hours, it just dies again.. The signal icon still has the H+ connection, etc, but I can't use it. Just like it's offline.
Any ideas?
Use GSM Network

This is EXACTLY what happened with me. I don't use WCDMA Network now. Use GSM Network (EDGE). I hope it'll get fixed in Android 4.4.4 and we'll be able to use 3G again..
On GSM Network, I never faced such a problem even on CM ROMs.
The weird thing was that I had no problems using 4.4.x version of CM of the January builds with 3G. They worked great when it came to data. And it doesn't seem to be a common problem, as I haven't read about more than one or two users before me. Switching to 2G/Edge does seem to work. Might be a coincidence, but I'm going to leave it on 2G for a while, just to check.
Either way I would love to use 3G on AOSP. If not, I would have to go back to stock Samsung..
First I thought maybe it happened because of damaged IMEI .. But 2G works! So it's not..
weird problem.. It isn't like the phone says it's not connected to network.

I tried Intelli3G with Xposed, but 3G didn't help either, so I forced it to 2G (within Intelli3G). That seemed to work. After an hour or two (still working), I tried (for the fun of it, since I hate 2G) to press *#*#4636#*#* and under Phone Information, I changed to WCDMA preferred. Data has been working stable since last evening. Might be a coincidence, but I'm crossing my fingers. I've disabled Intelli3G as well. Haven't rebooted after disabling it though. I'm afraid it wold stop working.
Restart seemed to work ok. For some reason it was set to 2G (GSM) only. I changed that to WCDMA preferred again. Seemed to work. I then enabled Wifi to update som apps, and then disabled Wifi. It reconnected to 3G, but now the connection is dead again.
If I go from 3G to Wifi and back to 3G, the connection seems to die. I open Intelli3G, change the mode to WCDMA/GSM auto or any other so data disconnects, and change it back to WCDMA preferred. Data now working. Don't know if I should stop using Wifi at the moment (if it's the transition between Wifi and data that stops it), or go back to stock 4.3, where it seems to be working as it should.
At least I have an (almost) unlimited dataplan, so data on 3G and no wifi is probably best all over, even though wifi at work and home is a lot faster than 3G..
Data has been stable on 2G/3G since yesterday. I've turned off Wifi completely. It's not a solution by a long shot, but at least I know data is working stable (so far) as long as Wifi is off.
Hello, all.
I seem to have a tricky one. Two days ago, I decided to give CM12 a try on my OG Moto X dev edition. Turns out I couldn't forgo Xposed, so I reverted to my nandroid backup. The install of CM12 was preceded by a wipe of data and system and an install of CM11, followed by a dirty flash of CM12, as per the rom instructions. Both CM12 and reverting to Kitkat went well, with no noticeable hiccups.
When I booted to CM12, I noticed my weather app referencing a location in Colorado. I live in Arizona, so that's quite a bit of error, but I didn't pay additional attention to it at the time. After I got back to Kitkat, I realized it was still giving me an incorrect location. After some further investigation, I determined my Net location was very off, but my device GPS was spot on. I have a VZW network extender at my house (acts like a mini cell tower and routes calls over the home broadband) so I suspected it was giving out the wrong location. While it was powered down, I was getting a correct Net location, but once it powered back up, I was back to the precise same wrong location. I have tried rebooting the extender, router, cable modem, and phone. I have also cleared the cache and dalvik cache on the phone.
To further complicate things, this is not consistent. My dad has a Note 3 which, when connected to the extender, has correct net and gps location. Phones expected to be connect the extender were confirmed by dialing #48.
Is there something I'm missing here? I been a fair flash-ohalic on previous phones, but far less on this one, but I've never seen something like this before. Thanks ahead for any help.
I have since reverted to full stock 4.4.4 via fast boot recovery files. I tried that pure, as well as Eclipse ROM (4.4.4). Both still exhibit the location error. I also cleared my location history from Google. Sigh...
Hi!
I have a very big problem with my Oneplus X.
Everytime i´am using voip apps like skype or other apps like this my Oneplus X disconnects from the wifi.
I have tested it with several apps and this happens every time. Even after a factory reset (with wipe cache and dalvik) i can´t use these apps. It disconnects everytime. The signal strength is very good. And this happens only with voip apps. Downloading files at maximum speed is no problem and causes no disconnection.
Can someone help me?
Update: I have tested OxygenOS 2.1.2; 2.1.3 and 2.1.3-X all have the same behavior. Then i flashed CM12.1 and it`s better but not as good as my old Galaxy S2.
Hey guys, I've been wondering: Does anyone else have the feeling that sometimes, the entire Android system and many apps get laggy when the WiFi or mobile data connection you're on is having issues? Google Maps, for instance, frequently lags and/or stops responding (complete with "System UI is not responding. Force close?" pop-up) when I'm in my car on mobile data, but never when I'm at home with stable WiFi.
Has anyone else noticed this? If so, have you found a way to work around the issue?
This problem has plagued me since HTC G1 days and has followed me through the Motorola Droid, HTC Desire, Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 5, so I know it's not device- or ROM-specific...
