I've been having problems with my mobile data working properly recently. The strange thing is Tapatalk works fine. But all browsers, Friendcaster, etc. will not connect. I've tried toggling Airplane Mode and Mobile Data, resetting default APN, changing modems/kernels/ROMs...no dice. I've even tried yelling at it and cursing it. Does anyone have any suggestions? Edit: Could something I'm restoring in TiBu be messing things up?

To test the second question, do a fresh flash and don't restore anything...

Okay so over the past few days I've been flashing a bunch of diff roms to see what I like. I've had a constant problem with getting mms to work on any of them. Well I was doing all of this from home and always had wireless to use for data, hence I used it.
Tonight, however, after flashing a few diff roms I found out I didn't have a data connection at all. Tried a couple diff cm6 nightlies and the blackmod of cm6, and after flashing the only way I can access the internet is through wi fi. Otherwise I got nothing.
Sooo, maybe my mms problem was just this all along or maybe not. Anyway, what could be the cause of losing all data connectivity. Phone says it's connected in status. And the widgets somehow magically update. But the browser, market,mms, etc don't work at all.
I'm gonna flash the 0.7 aospmod and see what happens. Any help you can offer is appreciated.
And yes, I might just be an idiot. Forgive me.
Just flashed aospmod v.07 and same ****. No data connectivity.
What gives? I feel stupid.
a guess
possible APN settings issue, did you flash back to a 2.1 sense rom, and try an Over The Air activation and update profile?
I honestly don't know but thats a guess... I use my phone with pageplus (verizon) and editing my APN settings is what fixed it for me.
Ruu. Started fresh.
Everything seems to be okay.
Thanks.
This happens on a lot of roms. I've found to fix it all u have to do is toggle on and off either or both airplane mode and moblie network.
I found having to open browser and put in my cell number b4 sprint data would work, also prl update works for me.

I had this happen to me (including all bars showing and things refreshing) and spent several hours working on it only to determine the only solution was to RUU and start over....but its faster this time around because you have nandroids....just flash one after you re root from before you lost data (if you have one) and if not, back up your apps and data with titanium backup or mybackup pro...
(I had tried all the things listed in the previous posts....not saying they wont work for you, but in my case, they didn't)

Alright, I've gotten pretty desperate now, so I'm making a post of it. A couple of days ago my Captivate's BT voice dialer stopped working. Anytime I try to activate it, it never gets past the startup stage. I have tried all kinds of VoiceDialer.apks and none have fixed the problem and only one even installs. I've also gone into Perception 10.3's zip file and restored the original version and still nada.
I'm at my wits end here and any help would be appreciated. I really need bt voice dial to work, our Perception is only marginally more effective for me than stock, no offense to DG's amazing work.

try going into Settings>Applications>manage applications> ALL > voice dialer > clear data
this can also be done through titanium backup.
and some more questions:
did this happen when you flashed the rom? or after? or unsure?
is this only when bt is connected? if so try clearing bt user data. (you will need to re pair)
This occurred before I even thought about reflashing the ROM. It, and the random vibrations, started up after I flashed to SpeedMod K13A. The normal voice dialer works fine, but doing it via bt does not. It only appears to be a problem with google one, since Vlingo works, in its limited capacity. I will try clearing the app data and

Gah, stupid swype. I will try out the app data and see if that works. Let me know if your have any other suggestions.

Ok, just went in and Voice Dialler (that's what the system calls it) does not have any data to clear. I'm not sure if this is because I can't get the perception 10 apk to install our something else

Ok, have just re-paired my T1 to my Captivate and still the same thing. I am also thinking that something is stealth crashing (crashing when you don't get the force close message) when the BT Voice Dialer is activated because it get stuck at starting up and I get about 3 vibrations when it first loads up. This is getting quite tiresome. Any suggestions or should I just try to reflash all over again?
So, I bought a new router a few days ago. Installed dd-wrt on it, got everything hooked up, PC, laptop, PS3, etc. Everything seems to be running smoothly except forum apps on my D4 and Nook Color. I cannot figure out why. Web browsing seems to run quickly and smoothly, but when I try to open up the XDA forums app or DroidForums app it takes FOREVER to load. If it loads at all. Switch to 4G and loads up fast. Speedtest app shows 9.21 Mbps down and .98 Mbps up so speed is not the issue. Netflix streams find on PS3. It really seems to just be the forum apps that have a hard time. Both on the D4 and my Nook Color. Any ideas? Is there a dd-wrt setting that I screwed up that could be causing this?
Just for kicks, did you setup the same subnet (network addresses)? I bet if you clear the app cache for the forum app it will behave after. Unfortunately you will have to start fresh, but it will likely fix your issue. I suspect DNS cache or something similar.
You could titanium backup the settings proir to wiping if you find cleaning the cache doesn't change things.
This is really not the forum to discuss ddwrt, but I don't think you could have a layer3 issue that would cause slowness in just one app on a device.

Thanks! I actually posted about the issue in the forums over at dd-wrt.com but haven't received a response over there. I will try you suggestions. I'll let you know what happens!
So i have now tried clearing cache, clearing data, uninstalling and reinstalling the apps. I even tried factory resetting the phone. Nothing is working. Can't understand it.

This is a weird issue, and I can't seem to figure it out. When I'm on my home network, I have really, really terrible lag with Facebook's mobile app *only on my phone*. I mean, it takes about 10 minutes for a pic to load. Any other app (on my phone) that connects to Facebook will lag really bad connecting to FB, as well. I've got Comcast and Speedtest will give me >100Mb/s on my desktop, hardwired to the router, and my phone will usually give me >50Mb/s. I've got an ASUS RT-N56U router, so I don't think that's the issue. I've tried both 5GHz and 2.4GHz, and they both have the same issue.
If I use the FB app on any other wifi network, or 4G, it works just fine. Any other tabs, iPhones, laptops, etc. work fine on my home network.
The thing is, it wasn't always like this... When I first got Comcast set up, everything worked fine. The problem seems to just have happened one day, and the only thing I changed on my phone was installing Transparent Weather Clock. Of course, I tried uninstalling it and seeing if anything changed, but no luck.
I am on 4.3 NB4, rooted.
Any help is appreciated! TIA!
Have you tried wiping the Facebook app data or uninstalling and reinstalling it? I've had funky problems with the Facebook app in the past and wiping the data or a fresh download from the Play Store always fixed it.
Thanks for the tip... I tried that, but ended up with the same results. Did a data wipe, then tried erasing FB completely and then re-installing.
I mean, the baffling part is that the app and all things connected to it work fine everywhere else... Even on much, much slower internet connections. I can't figure out why it works so poorly on my home wifi, when all the other devices work just fine.

You have a external sd? If so go in there and go to Android/data/ and see if files left over for Facebook in there. If so delete them. Then in app manager go to Facebook and clear everything you can. then uninstall. Clear cache. Reboot. Reinstall. See if it works

I do have an external SD... However, I checked and there is nothing about Facebook in there.

An update... I don't believe the problem is isolated to Facebook. Facebook just happens to be the most bandwidth intensive app on my phone. Other Internet services run more slowly on my home network than elsewhere. Maybe this will solve some mystery. I am starting to think it's a router setting.

may be your home router admin

I don't have any restrictions on apps using mobile data but for some reason, I have several apps like gmail and hangouts that won't sync unless on WiFi. Any way to figure out what is causing this? The YouTube app won't work on cell data, only on wifi... that's strange.
Thanks!
It's been happening for me too. I though it was just poor signal, but lately it's been worse.
I'll have 3 or 4 bars and can browse the internet just fine which is strange. I just tried clearing cache to see if that does anything.. I'll report back later
Sound Search is doing the same for me. Also, my phone keeps telling me I'm not signed in to Google when I'm on cell data.
Clearing the cache did not work, I tried deleting data from YouTube and other apps and that didn't work either. I really do not want to do a factory reset.
If you have Gasbuddy installed it might be that. Last week after taking an update for Gasbuddy anything that connected to my phone using it as a hotspot could not get internet access. Didn't make the connection at the time and factory reset my phone and hotspot started working correctly. Started reinstalling apps and when I got to Gasbuddy the hotspot quite again so I uninstalled Gasbuddy and everthing started working again.
That's strange. I don't have that app on my phone but I'll look to see what I recently installed and go from there. Good thinking there though.
Ended up doing a factory reset which worked.
