Cyanogen Mod 3G issues.

ever since updating to the cyanogen 4 series of roms i have been getting 3g issues. by this i mean that sometimes it doesnt want to connect to the internet from any program, like the market, google voice, or the browser. sometimes it does work, but sometimes i have to reboot the phone or just turn off 3G in order to browse the web. i am running haykuros spl with apps2sd with a 800mb ext4 partition. and im running the latest cyan mod.
can any one assist me in this?
what can i do to fix this?
do i need a new g1?

I dunno if wipe helps have you tried that? boot into recovery, wipe (alt+w)
if not, jacxrom is a good alternative to cyan, i guess...
but chances are your phone's hardware itself is fine, and you won't need a new one.

has anyone else experienced this and how did u fix it?

ive had the same thing happening lately. i had it happen tonight with just my edge connection i had to reset the phone. I also just wiped and reformatted my sd card for a linux-swap partition before flashing this rom so i know that isnt the problem.

Try re-installing the radio.

I had to do a second wipe after installed to fix the 3g problem. Since then I haven't noticed any problems

just rebooted the phone and all was well.

I dunno if this is related, but Ive been having bluetooth issues since the latest few updates, bluetooth has never been perfect for me, but when I listen to mp3s over bluetooth it almost constantly stutters, like its dropping the BT connection, because the music seems to have been going on playing while I don't hear anything.

what is with all these questions in the wrong forum? where is Mikey when you need him?
READ THE STICKIES. POST IN THE Q&A FORUM.

Mod request to delete thread: fix for BT and 3G issues
1. power down the unit with the red key. Wait a minute. Power back up.
2. Try reinstalling the radio
3. Try reinstalling the ROM, and then reinstall the radio again
5. You shouldn't have to, but wipe, re-create (not just reformat) your ext# partition (you can back it up and refill it, but occaisionally stuff gets left behind) reinstall the ROM, wipe, install again, install the radio, full power cycle.
5. (Last) post your issue
This actually belongs in the ROM forum, but not until these basics have been tried.

i tried this but still no cigar,
=[

I don't believe this to be a problem with a ROM or radio. I've had similar connection issues recently. i noticed it after flashing a Hero Theme to Cyan 3.9somethin. I thought the rom might have been the cause of the issue but a buddy of mine that i work with has a stock G1 and has similar connection issues. Also a customer came into the store who had a Samsung Highlight with similar problems, i figured it was a problem on Tmobile's End. It still hasn't fixed itself so i plan to give customer service a call in the morning and see if they have any resolutions or if its a recognized issue. I'll post back with what i get tomorrow.

MOD EDIT
Moved to Q&A forum

no signal..
As of late my phone was good... but now it says no service all day why.. an what can i do to fix... i was running cyanogen 4.0.4... i beive i hav the latest raido.. spl dont know... the wifi still works thou.. help please..

Have you tried uninstalling lag fix to see if the problem goes away ?

no, i will try now.

no lagfix is not the problem.
I uninstall it and the camera still won't make pictures...
For sure was when i rooted the phone...
maybe some kind of permission..
Thank you for suggestion, what now?
Kikan

If you have an external SD card, in camera settings, try change the store location to the sdcard and take a picture, and then change it back. It has fixed the problem for me before, although I had the problem in the camcorder mode! Some kind of glitch in the camera app, I guess.
This isn't really Android dev, should be over in the Q&A forum or something or other.

It could be hardware problem.
I once experienced something similar to this and no matter what firmware i flashed the problem persisted so i sent it to Samsung SVC centre and they pretty much fixed it, stating that they had replaced the camera module.

i don't have external sd card...
Interesting is that camera i sworking and video is working too, but i can record but i can't take pictures...
Hope that is not hardware problem...

i called to samsung service, and the gay there told me, that is probably something wrong with application, that maybe is there some apps, that are running in the background and this stops camera to make pictures.
first i will buy sd card and test, after
I don't want to change the rom before official release, just to test if camera will work...
I'm thinking that maybe i can uninstall all apps that a downloaded...
it's very strange that nobody had same problem...

The best thing you can do, if you accept loosing all your data, is to go in recovery mode and do a factory reset. If the problem persist after that it means that you have a hardware problem. Good luck

do i have to uninstall lagfix and unroot the phone?

i did recovery and factory reset, but camera still don't work...
I found out that doing factory reset will not delete sdcard files and i still have superuser apps installed and when i tried to install lagfix, i receive one error...so is not completely factory reset.
maybe something happen when i root the phone?
is there one way to completely remove all thing and reinstall all stuff? Just to see if i can solve camera issue...
i would like a fast and stable frojo release...
Thank
Kikan

i did a mess...
i didn0t uninstall lagfix before doing factory reset and now i think that i will go to samsung service...
i spoke with them today i and they are putting JP5 firmware now in all SGS...he thinks that firmware update can solve my camera problem...
i sow that is maybe batter to flash the JP6 firmware?Is this the stable frojo version?
thank you a lot

i solve my camera problem....
i use rom manager and Doc's Rom last jpm firmware version...
Thank you all for help me....

Sorry to ressurect an old thread.
But I'm currently experiencing this problem with the latest official release of Froyo. I've 2 Galaxy S phones here, both that I've setup, except only 1 seems to have the majority of problems.
I'm experiencing the same issues as above. Front facing camera shoots/saves, and so does the Video using the back camera. Saving pictures using the back camera fails with a simple 'camera failed' message and a broken invalid image file.
I'd like to keep my official froyo version without flashing another firmware. Strange that my other phone has none of these issues, yet is running the same firmware.
Anyone have any sort of idea what's going on or how I can solve this? Much thanks is appreciated.
I can't seem to post the screen capture. but if you want to take a look

Help, phone is useless

hi all, my phone has numerous problems and nothing seems to fix the phone, so ill sum up the issues
none of my apps work, ALL of them force close as soon as they are opened, I've tried factory resetting the phone, but after the reset the apps are still there with the same problem. The same things happen after i do a hard reset. I've tried reflashing stock and non stock firmwares and nothing fixes the problem, my phone is basically useless.
Is there any fix to this?

I don't know what your warranty situation is, but if you can flash back to stock, I'd take it into an AT&T store and see if you can get a warranty replacement. It's possible there may be a fix to your issue, but if you are in a position where you can just swap it out for a new phone, that may be your best/least frustrating solution.

Have you tried going into mounts and storage in cwm formatting everything and then flashing?

My phone is out of warranty
and yes i've tried that but still no luck :/

When you flashed to stock, did you do a Master Clear also? It sounds like a software issue and should be fixed with a complete system wipe.

I'm going to assume you used some type of backup " tibu " or something similar before you did any flashing ? If so did or how did you reinstall your apps and data ? Cuz if you install system apps plus data it would explain why all your apps are force closing. Only install missing apps plus data.

Do the ethical thing... Go to at&t and claim ignorance to the problem. Always works out.

Camera Issue

Hi guys.
I have a g900a from AT&T. The phone was working perfectly until recently. Now the main camera fails again and again.
The flash works, and the secondary camera works as well. I tried factory reset, clear app cache, etc. Nothing works.
If the flash is working, does it mean the camera it might still be working and it is just a software problem? As I recall, I didn't install anything weird to **** up my camera. And even if I did, factory reset would have solved it, yes?
I have no clue what is the problem or how to fix it. Please help.
Thank you!

[Q] Camera Issue?

I seem to have a problem with my camera after the update, I can not open the setting for the camera, it self closes as fast as it opens. Does anyone else have this problem?

Go ibto apps and clear the settings, defaults and cache for the camera

works fine on mine. Last resort would be factory reset, but maybe you could try go to settings/apps/camera click on storage and clear cache and data?

Thanks for the suggestion, I tried this and it did not fix my issue. I was hoping that I would not have to do a hard reset!

I have the same problem. It started yesterday. I tried the Safe Mode, Cache delete and the Factory reset, none of this worked. The camera app is still crashing.
I'm going today to the Verizon store, I hope I can get a replacement.
Did you resolve this issue ?

I had to do a factory reset to fix the camera. This worked for me. I would suggest trying it again.
Hope this helps
Rick

Random questions:
1) Do you have a memory card installed?
2) Did your memory card come from a previously encrypted Samsung device?
I'm only asking because I had the EXACT same issue, and it led to slow-downs too.
The card ended up being corrupt, and I had to get a new one: problem solved for me.
Just a thought.

Yes, I have a SD installed. I just removed the SD and performed a Factory reset again. Still not working. :crying:
Thank you anyway for the advice.

Did you ever get this fixed?
Mine is not working after the Oreo update.
