I did a clean install of Honeycomb 3.2 now i don't have 4G / 3G access. Affecting SMS / MMS abilities, VoIP, etc.
I was using Honeycomb 3.1 and 3G was working but no 4G. I was hoping this release would fix that but now neither works.
What am I missing? I don't want to send this back to TMO or Dell to reformat back to factory, too much TMO junk...
I think you should go back and read the last 10-15 pages of that thread.
APN settings
read from page 80 to the end. i added a apn setting and updated the build, still nothing.
I'll look play with the build and see if there's another place for the apn / 4g / 3g settings. and i'll keep on eye out on the main post.
thanks.........................

Ok so I had to do a factory reset on my nexus for an unrelated reason. I am on the web2go data plan and I had my apn settings for data and another for mms. Everything was working fine until I did the reset. I entered the same settings and now I cant send or receive any mms's. Here are my settings for my mms:
Name: T-Mobile US-MMS
APN: epc.tmobile.com
APN type: mms
Everything else is set to default. This kinda sucks because some long text messages that I send or receive are converted to mms. So any help on how to get my mms back. I would feel cheated having a superphone with no mms *cough iphone <3.0 cough*
I had a stock Nexus One ROM and then flashed the Desire one... since I've flashed my MMS has not been working either... and I definitely have the correct APN settings, I've tripple checked it!
Problem solved. I forgot to put default as apn type for data access.
Above do you have the same settings above as mine? Also did you try reboot? Was mms fine before you flashed rom?
My settings are different as I'm using Vodafone NZ but I've looked up the information and I'm 100% sure I've got it correct... Are you saying your MMS didn't work until you changed the APN type for your data APN to default??
And yeah I was able to PXT and 3G when I first got my Nexus One, after I flashed the Desire ROM I lost 3G and PXT... When I set the correct APN I managed to get 3G working but still no MMS
I am having the same issues on tmobile us. I can not get the pictures to download. Before I had some settings wrong, after fixing them I do not get the error anymore, but I do not get to download the message. Anyone have any ideas or solutions yet??? I am using Modaco Aplha 19

What about sending MMS? If I try to send an MMS it just sits there loading forever and never sends (This is using handcent) and when I try to download an image it just says downloading forever... :/
I'm relieved to hear someone else has a similar issue on Alpha 19.. Means its more likely to be a software issue and not something to do with my provider !
guys - you'll probably get more help if you search/post your issue in the MoDaCo Alpha 19 thread vs. starting a new one. this - unfortunately - is a common issue with this version of the ROM. it seems to be an inconsistent issue as well; sometimes i can send/receive without a problem other times i can't.

Given the problems experienced by Vodafone users with HTC mobiles, I have posted my solution to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901491
I need a little help. I'm making the jump from unlocked iphones to the Nexus One and have a newly acquired nexus one that has already been rooted and set with the 2.2 Froyo rom, and what I am told is the most popular Cyanogen HTC rom. The 2.2 Froyo rom seems to work perfectly, but my preference is the HTC ROM listed under my back up as BOS-20100531-0408. When I am running this ROM, I am unable to connect to 3G, or edge for that matter. (wifi connects fine) I have attempted the simple steps of dialing *#*#4636#*#* and changing the setting from WCDMA preferred to WCDMA Only, but this has had no effect. I lose signal for a second, then my bars come back, but no 3G and no edge. I am certain this is a T-Mobile model Nexus and I have the appropriate internet package as well. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it. Thank you.
update: The 3G works fine under Froyo, just not the HTC incase that wasn't clear. Thank you.
You need to enter your APN settings on the HTC ROM.
Okay, I have gone into settings, wireless & networks, mobile networks, Access Point Names, and the screen is an empty black. How do I add an APN? Is this the appropriate location? Thank you for your help.
3G issues
Okay, so I went into the APN blank screen, selected the menu on the phone and added the APN info I found on a website after a quick google search. I was going to post the link here, but I am apparently restricted from doing so because I am new. Now I have an H with arrows under it next to my service bars. Is this the same as 3G? I am unfamiliar with the H with arrows under it, but it seems pretty quick. I believe there is another page on xda that states it is as good, or better than 3G, is this correct? Thanks again.
Just an info for people having problems with T-mobile 4G --> 4G LTE new roll-out.
The APN settings needs to be updated to: fast.t-mobile.com
I have wasted a better part of this morning to figure this out after the "upgrade" here in Houston...
FIX for no data on Atrix HD on T-Mobile
I want to add what I also found out, after 3 days without data:
Device:
Atrix HD (MB886), factory unlocked, Original ATT Motorola ROM, JB 4.2.1, rooted (by the Ubuntu method). I have the device for a month and it works perfectly on T-Mobile.
Area:
Washington DC/Maryland area
Symptom:
Until 2 days ago 4g worked everywhere, great speed, faster than my Samsung Blaze.
Two days ago, in some areas I still had perfect data (4g). Other areas (changing cell towers), data connection disappeared. Phone and SMS worked normally but no data at all (no 2g, 3g, 4g, nothing!). 4g kept trying to connect from time to time if I forced it; data would work for a few seconds and than stopped. So, some areas the data worked perfectly, other areas there was no data at all.
Solution:
I found 2 solutions:
1- The right one, change the APN as posted above.
2- Download LTE Settings (Ryo Ueashima) from Play store; go to “Set Preferred Network type” change to GSM/CDMA auto (PRL). This fixed the problem without changing the APN.
I hope this info gets out fast over the internet so everyone can understand what happened with T-mobile changes to LTE, and fix it. I was about to get read of the Atrix HD…
Confirm, it'll work on old forced 4G settings, I have tried that too. Just make sure you get "4G LTE" icon, not just 4G as a result...

no 4g issues
I have an unlocked AHD on T-mobile, and have no issue getting 4g hspa+:15 granted there is no such thing as LTE in my area

Cool thanks for the heads up on the app. It opens what you normally could dialing *#*#4636#*#* on most other phones..
After weeks of playing around with build.props, APNs, and patches, on custom ROMs and stock, I am still attempting to get faster and more consistent data.
4G and LTE are supposed to be possible, but I can't figure it out.
I can get around 5 Mbps down using WCDMA only, but the very next moment in the same spot could be something entirely different.
My mobile data goes out quite often where it is just the outline of a triangle. I have never seen any other letters besides an E and a H.
I am currently on stable CM 10.2.1 installed on a newly created and wiped SS Slot 1, and have been for about a week and a half.
I used default network = 0 in build.prop this time around.
I finally managed to get my phone to recognize my SIM card while using the following configuration:
default network in Phone Testing = LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL) and
preferred network mode in Mobile Network Settings = Global (CDMA/EVDO/LTE/GSM/WCDMA).
It acted really strange at first but the settings stayed even after a handful of reboots.
I am using Straight Talk's current APN settings (tfdata).
My dBm is constantly going from about -90 something to -108 and my asu ranges from around 3 to 14.
Before I just now rebooted, and every so often, it shows 2147483647 dBm and 255 asu; I have only just noticed this in the past few days, however. It is now back to -101 dBm and 6 asu after restarting.
I have attached screenshots of it doing that and a shot of "normalcy", as well as my last few speed tests.
Can anyone tell me what I might be doing wrong?
Should I try default network = 10 again in build.prop?
Or could anyone provide a copy of a build.prop working on all possible network modes (with the ability to edit APNs)?
Thanks in advance. I will take any and all advice or opinions.
I am so over trying to figure this out! When I really need my mobile data, it doesn't work!
I have attached a couple of graphs of my signal highs/lows etc. These results are from the Real Signal app.
I don't really know what they mean, but I am hoping they might shed some light on my issue and I'll get an answer from someone.

How are you getting it to get edge data? On mine I either have HSPA or nothing. Is there a way to make it default automatically to edge when the HSPA signal gets weak. I tried using liquid smooth 4.2.2 and changed it to 2g only and never could get signal. Change it to auto and get HSPA again

Not really sure how, and when it is on Edge, data hardly works anyway, so I probably can't help you there.
But I do have default network = 10. Only other thing I changed was telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=0 to get the APN menu under mobile networks.
However, at the moment (and the majority of moments), with Wi-fi off, I have no data, -109 dBm, 5 asu, GPRS service is disconnected, and my phone number is "unknown", so I am definitely not in the position for giving suggestions.
Am going to try CM 11 again today, but I was hoping for some answers before doing anything other than installing..
I will ask more specific questions in the hopes that someone, anyone, can provide some sort of idea for at least 1 of them..
Is it even possible for the Bionic to have consistent, non-frustrating access to 2G, 3G, 4G, and LTE when unlocked for the AT&T or T-Mobile networks using Straight Talk?
Is there a way to enable the APN menu without changing the build.prop?
Does anyone have a targa build.prop (entire thing or line changes) of phone that has reliable data, etc. working on 2G, 3G, 4G, and LTE?
Could it be an issue with the SIM card itself?
Am I even approaching this from the right angle?
Should I just give up and get a new phone?
Thanks in advance.
Patch Idea
I am a novice at best and that may be a stretch.
BUT. Both of my Bionics are running on Straight Talk AT&T 4G sim cards.
One is a hardware REV-B the other is hardware REV-C.
The REV-C is rooted and running on the Jelly Bean stock rom.
The REV-B is rooted and running on a MoKee MK4.4 KitKat Release that I downloaded
from their site and opened in "Safestrap".
I do not think that I have achieved 4G yet however,
I do have fairly stable signal and data since
I installed a CDMA to GSM patch that I found searching these forums.
It includes Straight Talk and AT&T APN!
I am not aloud to post links yet. But if you search for these things here you will probably find them fairly quickly.
I would love to know if you can achieve 4G!
Good Luck!

I have the N6 running the latest CM12 and everything works great on Verizon as long as I am in a 4G LTE area. As soon as I leave 4G area I get a data roaming message and exclamation mark on my Verizon signal status bar. I have confirmed that stock rom will switch from 4G to 3G no problem but CM 12. I have looked into confirming APN settings but for some reason there is no 'APN settings' under the mobile networks settings fir me to confirm. I am just wondering if this is a common issue with CM 12 or just me. I was unable to find a thread on this so forgive me if this is a duplicate. Thanks.
I had the same issue with Liquidsmooth ROM. LTE works great 3G didn't work even when I enabled data roaming. I also couldn't send/receive mms while on 3G. Had to go back to stock rooted until the devs get this figured out.
