[Q] CM7 on roaming - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I flashed the latest stable CM7 for the i9000 last night and now i can't get 3G signal. I flashed back to the stock Bell rom and everything worked fine, but when I put CM7 I only get a roaming signal.
I'm on Fido in Montreal and I've put the correct fido apn, but the phone recognizes the sim as CAN Rogers Wireless Inc. Before it would first state Rogers and then automatically switch to Fido and I'd have full 3G signal, but now it just says on Rogers and roaming.
I've tried installing different modem files, but still no luck.
I can't make calls or use the internet.
Can anyone please help me?
Thanks in advance!

-------------
i hope this help you and don t forgot to save all your files in pc and remove external card

I managed to get it to work after trying different radio and modem files, but now i have another problem.
I am with Fido, but the phone now identifies the network as Rogers Wireless. I know they're both the same network, but before it would be identified as Fido. Is this a problem? Are there any risks of being charged roaming fees?
I'm using the same Fido APN as before...

Rooted phone, no 3G ROGERS

I just rooted my phone and I was able to get 3G service up and running just fine but I am unable to get 3G working. I have read that this is because I flashed the phone with a tmobile rom? it was the latest release of cyanogen
Change the APN to connect to the Rogers network.

[Q] Vibrant I9000M, No Service??

Hi,
My i9000m wont connect to any network,
ive tried everything, reflashed to stock, the 850mhz fix, everything, but still no service...
Doesnt work on rogers, fido, or telus sim. Have unlocked multiple times.
Fido and telus dont show anything but with the rogers sim it says i have a voicemail, and also says rogers in the pull down bar, but says not registered on network when i try making a call.
Any ideas?

thanks, will try and post back

gingerbread att tab

Just flashed the new gingerbread rom. Works great but it doenst recognize my sim card or network. I have att tab. Any help to restore it?
Did you remember to download the Modem package too? That's what I'm guessing.
sent from my Galaxy Tab using Cerebral up-link
Did you flash the version with the bootloader? Any whiteline issue on boot?
No I didn't download or flash a modem do I need to? I flashed the one with the bootloader. No whiteline I noticed.
I flashed with bootloader, tried 2 different modems, and no network. wifi works. tried flashing back to stock and everything went crazy. While I was using Odin, I STUPIDLY, plugged in my Captivate to charge without thinking, causing Odin to fail and I got the "phone - ! - PC" Icon.......talked about scared! Ended up using Roto's ATT stock image and Odin to get it back running again,barely. Now I get CRAZY lines when I boot (like if you tweaked the cable to an LCD screen), can't see Recovery screen....total craziness. Still no data. so I flashed back to OverCome Gingerbread ROM following his instructions, still no data
UNTIL
I swapped the SIM card with my phone. I suddenly got data on my Tab, but data would not function on my phone. Seems like the problem follows my SIM. Background: I also had a weird issue before hand where I couldn't open the Market on Cellular data without killing the data connection on Stock Rooted.
Thought I'd share.
EDIT: oh, and I can send text messages without issue.
Go to Settings, Wireless & Network, Mobile Networks, Access Point names and make sure you have one called Broadband (assuming you are on the ATT monthly data only plan)
If you dont, create a new APN and name it Broadband & make the APN Broadband as well. Just leave the other options and save it & select it.
I think by default it comes up with the ATT wap.cingular APN with doesnt work with the Tab Data plan.

Well Son of B....you rock. What pisses me off is I've screwed up my boot screen (all kinds of colored lines) trying to fix this. Thanks.

Gingerbread 2.3.3 installed modem does not work
AT&T monthly pay as you go. What modem.bin do I load? Where can I get it. Is there any additional setup instructions?
Follow my instructions above and flash the JK3 modem fromt this thread.

Mine keeps saying insert sim card to access. So how do I get it to recognize the sim?
Please anyone with some help? Can I store back to original att froyo and just wait for official upgrade?
Have you guys entered in your APN settings for ATT Broadband?
I am also having a strange radio issue. I am using an ATT Tab with Overcome v2.0 Beta 2 and the JK3 modem. 3G data works great until I try to access the Google Android Market. As soon as I do it drops the 3G connection and wont come back until I reboot it. If I dont go to the market or only go to the market on WiFi it works just fine. I also verified that the same behavior happens with the JPZ modem..
My theory is somehow ATT is blocking Gingerbread Tabs from going to the market using their SIM card. Therefore I think maybe I need to edit my build.prop to spoof them. Can anyone recommend which values should be changed? Can anyone think of anything else that could cause this? Can anyone reproduce this issue on their ATT tab?

You used the bootloader patch app, right?
Reinstall the stock 2.3, then the root, then overcome. Follow the overcome guide, this time put the modem.bin in the phone slot in odin. There is no other fox for the wiggly lines. If you don't reflash everything, you can't get into recovery mode.
i cant get into the network settings as it tells me to insert a sim. I tried to flash the modem as well with no luck.
ok so I turned on my tab to play with it a bit and I had data! It was an H and seemed to work. When I restarted the tab it stopped working and said no sim again.
1) The Gingerbread rom has a modem with it that works fine on AT&T.
2) Did you leave your sim card in while flashing?
i did leave my sim in while flashing. Should I have it out? It seems the tab only recognizes the sim card every so often. Not all the time. Any way to flash the sim recognition part?
Could you please post how you flashed your att tab so I can follow it? Thanks.

[Q] China mobile modem and modem change

I seem to have an issue with the samsung captivate here in china.
I have a pilotx custom ROM installed, firmware 2.3.4 baseband version I9000XXJVT and samaphore kernel for the captivate.
this works very well in Israel, getting perfect reception and voice quality everywhere. however when i arrived in china i found out that my phone doesn't manage to connect to china mobile network (chinese SIM card is china mobile).
searching for networks i can see chn-cugsm, which is a china unicom network. if i put my SIM card i can sometime connect to the network as a roaming user but my battery only lasts for a few hours, seems like the phone is constantly busy trying to find a network.
when i try to install another modem using CWM it looks like its going well but when i reboot the phone baseband version remains the same XXJVT, i tried both i897 and i9000 modems but can't seem to change my modem, is it possible that the modem is installed but the version is displayed incorrectly?
second thing is - is anyone using china unicom and can tell me which modem works best for them? their website states their network is GSM 900/1800. the israeli provider is said to be using GSM 1800
Try using ODIN or Heimdall to flash the modem? Can't help on wich modem.

[Q] loss 3G [email protected]

hi,i am using milestone 3(ME863)@Hong Kong version.
after i flashed DROID3-CM9-03-28-SELFKANG, my 3g data no longer works, the signal is fine, i can make/receive calls but as for data, market/internet anything requiring a connection it just does not work unless connected to a wifi network.
Moreover, i have changed the build.prop to gsm but i still cannot use 3g data.
so how can i get back the 3g data?
(sorry for my bad english )
there's a new issue, after i pressed the USA band, my phone did not have any signal. How can i get back the signal?
Searching pays. There's this fix here. The poster uses a XT862 but has XT883's (a.k.a ME863) radio installed on it so his phone should be on the same page as yours and you can safely try this fix. There are lot of guys here using Droid 3 on GSM so you should look around a bit.
Good luck!

thx for your reply. But i still cannot get any 3g data after replaced the build.prop, i only receive the signal. However, when i changed back to stock rom, i can use 3G data and signal. Moreover, i modified the libmoto_ril.so. i can receive 3G data for a second. After that it will disconnect automatically and then it will turn on for a second again.
How can i solve the problem?

Have you updated the internet settings in the device? After flashing CM9 and if you are using GSM, you have to manually go in and set the wap settings if they are not correct on the sim card.

thx for your reply. After i flash cm9 again, i can get the signal again but the new problem is that i cannot use 3g data....
Are that all of the custom roms in this froum cannot support gsm 3g data? i changed the build.prop of all that rom but i still cannot use 3g data
There might be a solution for the 3G Data Connection.
I have a Droid 3 XT862 with the Chinese Radio (XT883 as yours i believe) and my provider is AT&T. I am running CM9 and after i used the buid.prop from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23884104&postcount=1368
3G connection worked just fine. Don't try to flash this zip file through safestrap as it won't (at least no go for my occasion). Uznip it and copy the build.prop file to sd card. Then move it to /system by using Root Explorer (so you can mount /system as RW). Before do that, rename the old build.prop to build.prop.bak so you can have a copy in case new one won't work. You must also change the permissions to the new build.prop to rw-r-r . Finally reboot your phone and see if it will work.
My phone is running CM9 with XT883 radio and my 3G is working just fine.
