I was on vacation for a week, in an area with terribly spotty coverage.
I kept Airplane Mode on for most of the time, occasionally taking it off in areas where I knew there was a signal
It was fine for a few days, but now the "3g" icon has disappeared from the notification bar altogether. Wi-fi still works though.
Should I just upgrade to CM6 RC2? (It is out, right?)
On a side note, do I really have to wipe all of my personal data before upgrading the rom? Or should I be using titanium backup, and wiping everything?
You dont need to wipe for the CMod RC2 update. You just install it, then "boom", you're done. I didnt wipe for CMod for any of the different versions, not even when I first installed it.
Alright. Any idea on what to do for the network issue?
Just hope it works. If it doesn't, try BB or Sapphire because those are a lot more stable.

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..
ok I have been having 3G isssue on my nexus one 850 model, it shows thats I have full 3g signal but 3g hangs alot, and get data network error message, mine is unlocked and rooted and running Poul's FRF83 rom, I wanted to try different radios, can some one direct me what is best radio for att and from to get it, thanks guys for time
There is only one Froyo-compatible radio. The older ones will give you a few issues if used with Froyo as far as I know.
Radio working fine here. Try a clean ROM.
I think i have been having similar issues, flashed back to my stock recovery and stock images and ran the update from the google ota updates.
it just seems like it takes a bit for it to browse, sometimes when i run the fcc speedtest app it reports nothing for downstream and 1.5mb for upstream
was thinking it was just my area but not sure
Same here. Seemed to happen with Froyo 72. It is just the one tower that I've experienced this. When I'm at work my data keeps getting hung up. It will pause sometimes for 2 minutes before I get a socket and then it goes just fine. Away from work, any other area I don't have the problem. Got two iPhone users here on AT&T that are not having their data hang.
Speedtest.net results: DL: 11kbps, UL: 1467kbps
I did a complete wipe for FRF85B and installed the blackbar version of Geo411m's 85b: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714184
I'm not sure if this is the same as the well known "Nexus One 3G problem". I'm running CyanogenMod 6. I have been having occasional trouble on my home carrier (WIND Mobile Canada) where every once in a while, even though the 3G or H icon appears, I can't access anything and when I try the ping test under Testing/Phone information it fails.
The only way I'm able to get the Internet back is to disable mobile data (via widget) and re-enable. Then it lasts again for a while.
I'm currently on vacation in the US and using a T-Mobile SIM. It seems this problem is even worse on their network. Sometimes I only get maybe 2-5 minutes of a 3G connection before it freezes out like this. I've been leaving it on EDGE just to keep it stable, but this is obviously not an ideal solution.
About two weeks ago I started trying nightly builds of CM6 as I was interested in the FM Radio, and I have noticed this issue much more since then. It might be related, but it could also be a coincidence, and I don't want to start messing around with multiple ROM flashes while on vacation if that's not the problem in the first place. Any ideas on what to do?
Thanks

its a bug with 2.2.1,my nexus does this too. it will get stuck with the data up arrow lit up when the data stops working,turning data off and back on fixes it. there is even a post in the google bug tracker about it. I know for sure it happens in both FRG83 and FRF91,but I'm not sure exactly when it started. 2.1 roms for the N1 don't do it,and my g1 doesnt on 1.0-2.1,but on froyo roms it does exactly the same thing as the nexus.
I hope someone (google or a dev) can fix this,because its really annoying. my g1 is back to donut because its faster,and I'm considering going back to a 2.1 rom on the N1. I've confirmed the issue on ChromaticDream (g1),CM Nightlies (I've tried 198,200,201,202,203,220),CM6.0.0,Enomther's TheOfficialNexus (10/11/10),and a few others.
I thought I was the only one who noticed this bug. Does it occur in the stock (non-rooted) versions of 2.2.1 as well?
Just an update, although I do periodically experience this on my home provider (WIND Mobile Canada), it turns out that T-Mobile is having 3G issues in Portland this exact week and everyone's experiencing it. So the fact that 3G is nearly unusable on my trip is TMo's fault and not Android's.
UPDATE: I downgraded my radio to the official froyo radio (4.0-something lol) and my timeout problems are no more so far....
I have the same problem but with since I'm using nightlies 215 the problem is gone (i'm using 508 radio)
but lately I'm using nightlies 221 and 223 and the problem is back
I settled on 204 for vacation because I didn't want to fiddle with the ROM 10 hours away from my desktop comp! Now that I'm home, keep this thread updated with which builds seem to have a stable 3G connection.
I just flashed 225 with 512 radio and I can say this build is stable, no more intermittent connection lost. 225 nightlies is fast as well
Good to know. I'm on the 5.08 radio; is there a significant difference with 5.12?
Ok so I recently rooted my beautiful touchpad and now the Wifi has just stopped working! Ive wiped data, dalvik and all the other good stuff, reinstalled my rom and it seemed to work. After rebooting the device, it stops working again. Im getting SERIOUSLY frustrated with this device....

So as easy and dumb as it sounds sometimes I try and wipe and it doesn't help so the other day I just tried toggling the wifi off the back on and holy crap it worked. Have been doing that for a week now and works every time for me, maybe try that, even tho it sounds dumb and easy

Wifi on CM Touchpad can be iffy due to the fact that the drivers have not been fully sorted out yet. For some it works perfectly, for others it is problematic.
There is a whole thread in the development section dedicated to discussing this which also has lots of suggestions for improving things for people where the wifi is problematic.
The problems I have with wifi seem to happen at the edge of my router's range. My network is on channel 9, and I've never changed it, since all the lower channels are saturated in my condo building.
On WebOS, wifi works fine.
On CM9 a0.6, wifi was fine and I wondered what everyone's problem was.
On CM9 a2, wifi would cut out when I tried to actually use the network when I had half or fewer bars. I could wait a minute and it would usually come back for a few minutes. No problems when the signal was strong.
On CM9 4/16 nightly, wifi works much better, failing maybe 1% of the time compared to before.
I was previously having issues staying connected using cm9 and aokp builds. Disconnects were really bad and so I went to my router settings. I have a Linksys router with both wireless G and N. I disabled the N signal and set my G signal to channel 1. Wi-Fi is working better than ever and have not had any disconnects since the change. So apparently the N signal interferes with the hptouchpad's reception. I am using latest cm9 nightly. Hope this helps someone

Is anyone else that's running CM10.2 on Droid 4 having data connection issues? Have you fixed them? If so, how? Does the code need to bake a while longer before data starts working?
I'm running CM 10.22010831-NIGHTLY-maserati
WIFI is working, but I can't get data to work otherwise. I did a factory reset and started fresh. I've tried flashing the ROM and gapps package multiple times. I wiped cache and Dalvik. I tried repairing permissions.
Any Ideas?
Thanks,
Marty

Tried that and still no love.
I think i need to update my baseband radio, but I can't find a more recent baseband version for the Droid 4.
I'm currently using CDMA_N_05.11.01P LTEDC_U_09.11.00.
Anyone have a link for a newer version or any idea how to get one?
Thanks,

Do u have the issue on stock rom slot? If so then take it back to stock with the latest utility floating around the forum. Check for system updates if there is one dl and install to make sure u have latest radio if problem persist then it's a Good possibility it's A coverage issue or hardware related problem..

Ok, here's where I'm at now.
I updated my stock rom. baseband is now at 5.25.00. Still won't work on CM10.2.
3g will work on my stock ROM, but not on CM.
I've screwed with the mobile network settings and I can't get any difference in results.
LTE works great with CM10.2, but as soon as I'm in 3g territory, I'm dead in the water. I can receive and place voice calls and I get text messages through the messaging app, but anything that requires an actual data connection, like google voice or the browser, it won't work.
Help!?
updated PRL, still no love.
In some versions i needed to add APN manually, then it would work. In earlier version i had the same problem that 3g would not work. Also problem with reception bars - it would always show like 1 bar or smth like this but would work just fine.

It already has several APNs set up. The one I have selected is: APN: vzwinternet, MCC:311, MNC:480. Most everything else isn't set.

Set adrift without data.
Day 10: I've run out of water. The sea gulls... they mock me... with their wings... and beaks... and of course their raucous calls. They are scheming against me. My only friend is the lone shark that circles me constantly. He's attentive like that. A bit forward though. Keeps trying to kiss me. I tell him "NO KISSES FOR YOU! Not until the second date."
Also, still no data.

First off, thanks for the chuckle
Secondly, you're getting no data at all? Are you on Verizon? If so, do you have LTE in your area? My personal experience has been LTE data is working fine but 3G has been REAL spotty. I did see dhacker on twitter post a new razr build with some 3G tweaks he was testing. So that is being worked on and should filter down to us when it does get figured out.

3G was working fine on 10.1, but is nonexistent on 10.2. It actually acts like it wants to connect to a roaming tower if I switch it to GSM, but it can only see it and won't pass traffic.
I could just go back to 10.1 or run stock, but my pigheadedness, that's a word now, won't allow it.
On the brighter side, I am learning a great deal more about my phone that I had previously known.
The problem seemed to rectify itself around the nightly build on 9-15 or 9-16.
I know I'm a bit late, but I always do the * # * # 4636 # * # * in dialer and I turn off the radio, set the radio to cdma/lte and turn it back on, usually it isn't letting all those other antennas run and it seems to pick 4G LTE faster in my experience.
I think it's a CM10.2 issue...
Hi, my friend with a Galaxy S3 is having the exact same data retention issues we are having on our Droid 4's, which makes me think this is a bug in CM10.2 on various devices more than an issue with our phones. I can get LTE data when I have service, but find that once I loose service, even for a moment, the phone then never re-connects to LTE again and just sits there with white bars instead. Toggling data or airplane mode seems to usually trick it into reconnecting to LTE, but it is becoming annoying to have to constantly check and toggle around to get data back. I've tried every nightly and the M1 and have found the issue remains through the 11/19 build. I've installed the ROM into slot1, I'm not sure if overwriting the stock ROM and using the stock slot with CM10.2 helps matters at all, has anyone had any experience with using CM10.2 in the stock slot instead of Sot 1?
