Thanks for the tip but tried it ten times didn't work for me. Tried full wipe and really flashing but still don't get it
Same issue here. I notice if I force it to Edge then Edge works, but no 3G after 5.0.5.3 and i flashed the EPE54B radio with the apps. I'm thinking it's the radio but i can't find the previous image to test it out...

I have the same issue after flash CM5.05.3 and radio EPE54B.
It can't use airplan mode to solve the problem, only reboot.
Does any sollution? Help !!
After trying a million things my sister tells me her mytocuh is having the same issue. I called T-Mobile and they don't know crap. It just now started working again for me almost a day later out of the blue.
Yea I still for nothing no edge or roams mg data just got calling network irk what it is so guess just deal with it. Closest city with 3g to me is 40mi lol
Sounds like a problems with T-Mobile and not the ROM. Make sure you have "Allot data connection while roaming" checked also or you'll never have data while roaming

yea bout the only reason left. yes i have allow data raoming on but get nothing. dont know if its radio kernel or cyan or what
Today was the first time I installed a mod onto my device. I updated the radio to TheOfficial_Nexus1_Radio_Update_4.04.00.03_2.zip and flashed CM5.0.6. Everything has been great, EXCEPT my device won't connect to 3G coverage. It clearly displays 3G, but no internet applications will load (ie browser, email, weather). When I force the device to use only 2G / Edge, then it works fine, but obviously speeds are SLOW. WiFi too works flawlessly. Any ideas? I tried going back to TheOfficial_Nexus1_Radio_Update_4.03.00.21_2.zip and this did NOT solve the problem.
Ideas please? My N1 has become a 2G device in a matter of hours, SUCKS!
I should add I'm on T-Mobile and prior to any modifications today I had excellent 3G coverage.
For testing purposes...have you tried to flash 5.0.3 and seeing if your phone still has 3G issues?
I will try this right now. I was told it doesn't matter if I flash the radio before or after install... true?
No difference with 5.0.3. When 3G is displayed no data will transfer. When H is displayed, then I get good data transfer. However, the H is only there maybe 1 time every 5 minutes or so.
Could be an issue with not having rooted the device properly? When I rooted I never got the SU notification like I have seen in some threads showing a picture where you have to click "allow" for the device to allow root. I do have the app superuser permission on the device, but it's empty when I open it.
Thx
Well you can always just go from scratch. Get into bootloader, flash all of the stock PASSIMG images and then start over...
-flash recovery
-go into recovery, perform the traditional wipes
-flash the rom of choice
-reboot and see what happens
Does this happen in all locations or just at home/work/etc?
i've only been working out of home today. tomorrow ill be a better test. i took suggestions from posts i placed in the official cm5.0.6 thread in the rom development forum... and i changed some information in the build.prop. i think it has actually helped my issue... will be reporting back if i'm wrong..
Well I don't know what to make of this. I went back to a stock recovery image. Manually downloaded the a EBF54B images zip, fastboot flashed all the images, then manually applied the FRF85B update...
Well my 3G (in Salt Lake) is all screwed up, 3G icon appears, but can't get any damn data. Browser not working, martket doesn't work, can't sync.
I was originally running a rooted version of FRF85B that someone had provided and was having major issues with the Froyo radio as well yesterday.
Anyone else on AT&T hating life? 2G seems to work just fine.
EBF54B seems to sign in and work fine too.
I should mention this seems to be partially intermittent. A page will occasionally start to load and then stop and die, a speedtest (speedtest.net app) will start and then just time out... and then report 0.

Make sure you download the universal update -- There are two builds, if I recall properly -- FRF85 and FRF85B -- FRF85B is for TMO and straight FRF85 is for ATT

Nope, that's wrong. FRF85B is for all Nexus one phones.
OP, why don't you try dialing *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer and checking to make sure your phone settings are "WCDMA preferred"?

Have full 3G signal strength, never had to do that on AT&T. Had a T-Mobile N1 once, needs to do it then

Well this didn't improve anything. Maybe there is some network issue here. Thing that worried me is that I asked an AT&T friend to check their data and theirs worked.
Damn.
Well I'll have to try at home and see if I'm not just experiencing some localized data issue.
On a side not, that so called universal update you linked me, well it says FRF85B in my phone info so I don't see what the difference is.
I think my phone is busted. No change or improvement based on location. Data is just DAO. Says it's connected, has full signal, but mostly just times out, or doesn't do anything at all.

I did this, it was set to wideband preferred.
For a luagh, I tried putting the EPE54B radio on it (left FRF85B on it), and it's still messed up.
It will cut in an out during a speedtest (still with full bars) and most of the time just time out and puke.
Browser is also highly intermittent. Usually data stops flowing before I can get more than web page to load.
Any more ideas?
Changing the radio didn't help.
Using default APN settings...
Do you have any lock screen apps installed?

Do you use SwitchPro Widget?
I was on FRF72, and went to FRF85B, I thought everything was ok till I went out earlier today, I got NO data at all, no edge or 3g, icons wouldn't show up.
Tried 2G only, didn't work, also checked that WCDMA PREFERRED was selected. Nothing.
Did a nandroid back to FRF72 and all was fine.
So I nandroid back again to FRF85B, WIPED, and redid my phone, and 3G works great.

SwitchPro had me thinking my phone was dead yesterday after an update killed everyone's 3g.
This is issue is on a stock FRF85B. No apps other than default, and my restored bookmarks.
Same problem. 100% stock no root or unlock. 3G icon shows up and down activity but pages wont always load and browser and apps that use internet constantly lag. On WiFi the issue isn't there.

i have been having same problem my radio is 4.06.00.12_7 (if needed) cant seem to get any download speed when useing 3g. edge works just fine. could use some help cause i rely on data.
My problem seems better today, but I am still experiencing severe intermittent data.
Full signal, 3G... it's almost like the data connection just goes to sleep and won't wake up again.
If you refresh the web page a few times, after a few minutes it finally comes back, but then all of a sudden, about 30 second to a minute into loading a page, it just stops...
The problem is in Maps and Market to... it starts to load... stops... or sometimes won't start at all, like maps won't start loading tiles.
Very frustrating.

My 3 week old stock unrooted N1 seems to have lost 3G as well after the Froyo FRF85B update last night.
No signal problem as I live right next to a tower which provides me with a very strong signal and 3G always worked solid with Eclair. Pulled out the sim and placed it in my Nokia E71 a couple of times today to check the network and I have plenty of 3G data speed so I don't think it's an ATT issue.
If I click on 'use 2G only' in the settings, Edge seems to be working fine. Just no 3G. I could see from the data "stats" app that a few kb/s must have transferred through 3G in the past 24 hours but I'm not sure as it's useless for anything else that requires data.
I've spent the last 8 hours messing with my phone and googling a fix to no avail. I found this thread to see that someone else has this unfortunate problem as well, sigh. I hope there's a fix out there somewhere.
To say I'm been gutted is an understatement

So, right now I am using the Axura RC1 CE (I will update later), but I have had the problem described in the topic on various other ROMs using the JK3 modem.
It works fine for a few days (time is random, I have not been able to manually reproduce the issue), then randomly I lose all reception. Switching to flight mode fails, it gives no error, it just does nothing, in the notification bar it just says (searching). I have to reboot the phone to get the phone functioning again.
Anyone else experiencing this on ATTs network, or if there is a fix, I spent the last hour searching and going through the various threads to no avail (or I just suck at searching)..
Did you try the Axura thread?

I'm having the same issue but I've tried Assonance as well and still get the random no service. Tried different i9000 modems as well--anyone know if its safe to use a captivate modem??? I'm guessing no but just want to know if anyone has tried it without borking the phone.

I'm having this same issue as well, that's why I've tried to stay away from the UGJK3 modem, however, it's seems every custom ROM is starting to use it
As far as using a captivate modem with an i9000 ROM, I've tried that also, while it didn't totally brick my phone, I did get random FCs. I've read that is a dangerous path to go down.
I feel the same way. I might try the CogKernel and see if that helps...
Please, please, PLEASE do not post these types of things in Development.

+1 Lets keep this forum area clean .. its just for development stuff guys.
I have had the same issue with all I9000 modems, the only fix that has worked for me is to enter the service menu and force WCDMA 850 Band only. Also, questions should be posted in the question forum.
[this thread is pretty relevant to development - considering the rom chefs are using this modem in their releases and it has a potential major flaw. if the mods find it better to be in Q&A, then please move it - otherwise, i think the right eyes will see it here]
yes, yes and yes!
ive been posting about it in the perception thread, but no one (save for 1 user) chimed in with the same issue.
we both noticed that we both have an issue where we will bounce from 3G to H and back fairly often. this leads me to believe that it could be part of the problem.
i just odin'ed back to stock because my phone isnt receiving incoming calls now.
what i had planned to do was flash the latest perception but use a different modem... but it seems like the only sensible modem is the JK3 (although there is word on the street a new one just leaked?). so that idea is kind of out.
someone here said they were going to try cogkernel2, but i was on setirons and cogkernel2 and it happened with both. it seems to be a modem issue.
i wanted to lock the phone to use 3G only to see if that would help, but no one shared a way how... but reading this post it seems i can do it from the service menu - though i dont know exactly what to set/change to keep it only on 3G. (any help would be great).
so i believe im going to flash perception 8 and see if i can lock it into 3g mode and go from there. this is getting pretty tiring. im hoping if a new modem releases that will help, but i honestly am not sure i can wait since it is making the phone unusable.
below are my posts from the perception thread on the issue.

i searched but did not find...
i see others have had issues with APN force closing. i do as well, but assuming that isnt a problem, i dont mind.
my issue is that after a certain period of time left asleep, my phone will completely fall off the network. changing flight and data mode dont work, nor help. a restart works. this has started a day or two ago, but was not an issue for the first week (give or take). if it is relevant, my network constantly swaps between H and 3G where i live.
i have not found a setting to force 3g (and disable hsdpa) as i figured it was the network hopping that was doing it. am i just missing that setting? anyone else with this issue? (again, i saw people with the apn force close but not complete loss of network unrelated to initial flash)
also, i think that each build should get its own thread. it is VERY difficult to find accurate information on the current build once a thread has 4 builds and 250 pages in it. even with search, it would still be a good idea.
thanks and thanks.

of note: going into wifi settings is also borked. it will eventually time out and FC. i also think that the times my phone has completely lost network and not reconnected have happened more often when charging. but that could be coincidence.

in relation to my post below yours, does locking the 850 band only force the phone to use only 3G, or is HSDPA/HSUPA still enabled but you found the 850 band to be more stable.
this is what my next attempt will be to get a solid platform going.
I've tried different modems other than jk3 and it doesn't fix the problem. Stinks that you've used Cogkernel2 and it doesn't help. I also tried the different band selection in service mode and it also hasn't help me (apparently this worked for some people). If you want to give it a shot do the following:
1. Dial *#0011#
2. menu button then soft back key
3. then phone control -> network control -> band selection
4. good luck!

ugh. that is disheartening. i will try the band lock, thanks.
can you confirm or deny that when you notice your phone goes completely out of service that it has been hopping between 3G and H? it would be interesting to see if we all have that issue as part of it.
also, fingers crossed for that supposed new modem.
/sigh
Yeah this really sucks because these roms are great with this one very big exception. I haven't noticed the hoping before I need to reboot. I have noticed that if I switch into airplane mode once I drop service I can't turn it off.
I had the same issues with Axura and Percetion. I found that switching my network control to WCDMA 1900 only pretty much fixed it. The only problem I had after was that any time I lost service naturally, ie, bad area, or shielded rooms, whenever I came back into a good service area I could never get a signal again. So I would have to reboot.
In the end, I'm back on Cog, 2.3b7 and no issues for about 14 hours now.

I've been steadily upgrading my GF's phone with Albinoman's builds and they have been working great! However, going to the September 17th build caused a very large drop in network signal strength. She still gets 4g, but its only ever 1 or 2 bars. Mobile data is sporadic at best. Also, the battery drain has been really bad on this build, and I'm assuming it has to do with the signal strength (if its unrelated I'll deal with it separately. Haven't looked at that yet as the signal is the major problem).
The other problem is that she cannot send MMS anymore. I don't know if that is related or not, but if I'd figure I'd toss it out there.
What I've done:
* 2x Reflashed the 9-17 build, and flashed the kernel using ADB. This was a factory restore before the reinstall. (S-On)
* Tried to re-do all of the APN's based on numerous websites that list AT&T APN information. Many of them just caused further problems, so I'm back to defaults (default,supl,mms @ mmsc.mobile.att.net)
* Investigated http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2348361 (as per the FAQ), but it looks like that is for a different phone entirely so I wanted to get opinions before I looked into flashing a RIL.
I'm open to suggestions at this point, and if people think its important I'm sure I can re-do more of what I've already tried. Thank you all for any suggestions or assistance!
It's an AT&T Network Phone by the way.
