I want two install darky's rom just thinking though if i do will i lose network provider setting that would mean no signal or no network,am on o2 uk network provider. And ave installed cwm and cfroot just need two install darky's rom 9 extreme,but dont want two install if i lose network setting,any help is gratefull.
Thanks Mark204
I havent used darkys rom before but just from reading his post it says it will wipe your phone unless you already have a previous darky rom installed. So that means it will factory reset and therefore yes you will lose your APN settings. APN settings are only for data and mms. voice will always work.
However, APNs are easily put back - just search google for your providers APN settings.
Thanks for your reply, ave installed darky's rom no probs everything works ok

Hey everyone,
I recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S from Sasktel sometime in mid-october. This is the first android phone I've ever had, and after a few days i decided to try to root it. The rooting process went fine and I had absolutely no problems with my phone. However, i eventually decided to try a custom ROM. I went with Darky's Raw Steel Edition from this forum but after i successfully installed it (v2.2) I could no longer connect to the data network. I could still make calls and receive texts, but any sort of internet connection wouldn't work. When version 3.0 of the rom came out I installed it but had the same problem. I thought my best option at this point would be to just restore to the stock 2.1 firmware. I wasnt exactly sure what my phone had been on when i bought it, but i decided that I9000XWJM9 from samfirmware would be my best bet. I flashed with odin, and now I have no network connection at all! Does anyone know what my problem could be? Thanks so much to anyone who can point me in the right direction!
Find your apn settings from your provider or google it and it is is this forum aswell where theres list of them just enter your apn settings for your provider manually.
Go to www.tweaker.com and get the settings for ur network

Thanks for the help! However, I'm having some trouble finding the APN settings for sasktel, if anyone could post a link or something that would be great. And gadgetcheck, I think you gave me the wrong link, it takes me to like a media site with nothing about APN settings as far as I can see.

the SaskTel i9000m stock firmware is JH2. If you're going to use a custom rom, use Doc's. That's what I'm currently using, no issues whatsoever (also on SaskTel in Saskatoon ) If you need the apn settings, let me know, and I'll just copy them out for you, but I'm pretty sure Doc's rom already has them, as I never had to add them. Though maybe they just carried over from my JH2 install?
I recently flashed Darkyy's Gingerbread v8 and I cannot receive a 3G connection.
I have selected and unselected the "use packet data" and "data roaming" options as well as downloaded an app to turn on data connections incase it was needed, however still no luck.
I have WiFi connection, signal for messaging and calls.
Any help appreciated as I cannot find anything anywhere
SGS l9000
I would ask the rom developer .

Thanks, I've already sent a message
Do you know if it's safe to do a factory reset? Will this just take me back to 2.1 eclair?
It will not reset to ur stock firmware it will just delete all apps and settings. Did u check if u have any entries under settings/wireless settings/mobile network/access point names/ ? If not u should go on ur carriers page and resend the mms / internet settings.

did you create the APN entry in Wireless settings?
Shrooms and Allgamer - No I havent got anything under APN.
How do I go about that?
(currently searching google - for some info)
I managed to find from my providers website the details for the "Internet" APN my 3G is working thanks for your help.
My WiFi is broke now though. Im presuming this is something to do with settings as well, if anyone knows why this is happening.
I am connected to the network I just have no data coming through.
Thanks
1. NEVER DO A FACTORY RESET AFTER INSTALLING A CUSTOM ROM! - Doing a factory reset will unroot your phone leaving a ROM/files installed on your phone that would only survive if the phone was rooted sometimes causing major issues.
2. Check to make sure you still have your IMEI. Use SGS toolbox (free) From the market. If you don't then use search on xda as there is a fix
3. It might be a modem issue. Try another modem from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9724862&postcount=14434 *If you are a bell, fido customer* or use a carrier that runs the 850 band then you should try to follow the instructions I have posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10533852&postcount=2525
Let me know how you go
Sorry I've just fixed it, I remembered I installed and APP called DroidWall and I never selected it to use WiFi...Sorry my fault.
Thaks everyone for your help, learned alot about my phone.
Hi all, well, here is my problem.
I have my stock rom 2.1 eclair from Personal, Argentina, and i flash the phone to put the 2.1 ARO (Unbranded). After the flash, the phone works great for a while, then i lost connection, and i coulnt connect to my network anymore. I couldnt performs calls, sms, or whatever related with communication. I only have wifi.
If i access to Mobile Networks -> Net Operators, the phone keeps searching and never retrieve the list of network operators. My apn list is empty, and i couldnt add new ones, mannually or by APN Restore & Backup software. The network mode is not selected, but if i choose one mode, it doesnt selected it.
I Flashed the phone with Odin, with and without repartition, but it still having errors.
Any one can help me?
Factory reset first .
jje
i've performed a factory reste, but nothing happends...
try to deactivate the mobile data and restarting the phone this worked once for me, if that doesnt work i would suggest trying another rom this also worked once for me. And if all else fails then your gonna have to send it back for repair, i had to do that last time this happened. I put on the 2.2 update from my carrier and told them that the phone messed up after updating.
The endless searching for a carrier is normal, but you should be able to enter apns manually. Search for the code to check IMEI and confirm you have one listed.
If you have a backup of your efs file, you can restore that and see if it solves the problem, or load an Argentinian csc file (they may have one in the ROM Kitchen that you can cook as an update.zip) .

Hello, I bought of a friend a Samsung galaxy s and he said it needs only unlocking,so i "think" i unlocked it successfully.Was putting a O2 Simcard in and in applications i was having then the o2 SIM Toolkit.
But when i tried to make an phonecall, he tells me "Mobile Network not available",so i went to settings and wireless and network and tried to choose an network operator but he tells me then " Unable to connect to this network at this time.Please try again later."
What can I do?
Did you check the APNs?
Please first check if your IMEI is intact. If it is, flash a different MODEM and see if it works. If it's not, flash a fresh ROM using ODIN and that should hopefully restore your efs.
At first thanks for the reply, but now what is a APN? And how do i know if my IMEI is intact?
Sry,am a newbie
For you IMEI you should check your original SGS Box's sticker. There should be you IMEI number printed on. If you dial *#06# you should be able to read your IMEI. --> Look if it is the same as on your box
for apn settings. Apn is your connection settings, how your phone connects with the providers network. you have to check your mobile network settings if these are correct.
So, the IMEI nr is different then on the sticker,and the apn wasnt ticked,so I ticked the O2 and tried but still no mobile network.
Then i need to flash if I'm right?
I was already looking a bit around here about roms etc. But there are quite a few out there,so when you say to flash a fresh rom,which actually do I need to use?
Thank you
Hi again,
because the imei wasn't the same, I flashed it with a new rom (actually two different ones)
But still after both flashes I still don't got my old imei and still no mobile network available. After the one flash with I9000XXJPU he didn't said anymore no mobile network available,instead he said no data network available.
It would be nice if somebody would have some advice or help.
Thanks
hey! don't panic, i have had the the same problem
just download darky's resurrection edition in the development section and flash it. it should bring you back to froyo 2.2.1 and should also restore your imei properly. after this procedure you are free to flash any rom you want

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Flash back to 2.2.1
Check imei
Continue on..
Also the problem you had when flashed JPU sounds like you didnt have your APNs correct..thats why the "no data network available"

No Network
Hi!
I have the same problem.
Network is fine (i switched the SIM-Card into different phones), but my SGS GT I-9000 does not connect / find to any network.
I am running Darky`s ROM 4.0.4 v11.0 Black Edition with 3.0.17-Semaphore_ICS_1.2.5s.
Also, the phone says on screen the name of my network provider (COSMOTE), but no signal.
What now?
After a unsuccessful flashing of Semaphore 1.0 kernel for Slim ICS, I lost my recovery access. I tried to flash an old 2.3.3 rom (XXJVH I think, official nordic firmware) with Odin, but it failed several times. Then I managed to flash an XXJVU (European value pack) rom, but phone couldn't recognize my SIM card. I tried to flash JVH again, and it failed again. Then I reflashed XXJVH, and now my SGS would recognize SIM card, but all the APN settings are gone, and I can connect to internet only with wifi. I'm planning to flash CWM to my phone and then Slim ICS again, but will the APN settings be restored? I also considered restoring a nandroid backup of my old, working XXJVH.
Which option should I do? Does nandroid backup restore my APN settings, or are they stored elsewhere?
Also, can the APN settings reappear after flashing Slim ICS or some another rom?
Your apns will usualy include in ics roms.
For jvu you can flash jvh csc. Or you can type in your apn manualy.

So, if I flash ICS, the APN settings can "mystically" reappear?
Just go to settings > wireless & networks > mobile networks > access point names then press menu button and add APN. If you don't know your APN settings just put to google your operator name and APN.
Thanks for advice for both of you! I flashed ICSSGS and APN settings were restored automatically. Case closed.
