[Q] No network connection?

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?

[Q] No 3G connection

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.

[Q] Full factory reset, now network does not work

Hello,
The short story is that I have a Samsung Galaxy S. I wanted to install some new firmware ( and because Kies bricked my phone a few months ago ) with Odin.
There was a guide somewhere where they did a full factory reset with
*2767*3855#
After I entered the code I could not connect to the network anymore. And cannot make any phone calls or receive them.
I am in Romania, using Vodafone.
I also tried
*#272*[my IMEI]# and selected CNX and after it reboots it asks me if I'm using Prepay or Postpay. I chose Postpay and still nothing.
If I search for networks it finds all of them but I still cannot connect to any.
I entered *#0011# and this is what I get
UMTS : Limited
RRC State : IDLE
WCDMA 2100 Band 1
Reg PLMN 226-1, IsPCS? 0
FREQ DL : 10836
FREQ UL : 9886
CELL_ID : 0xc82811b
LAC : 0x7d16
PSC : 44
RSCP : -96, ECIO : -8

Tell me what I can try right now, or what information you need more from me.

Usually this means that there is something wrong with your APN settings, like they were erased.
Check out your APN settings and make sure they match what your carrier needs. If they aren't right or missing then you will indeed have network issues...

ccrows : the APN settings seem to be fine. As far as I know the APN are for data networking ( internet ) and before if I had no APN set I could still call people.

Reset your apn settings!

Your APN has nothing to do about whether you can call or not, it controls your data. You could have an empty APN and still make calls.
I really think something in your APN is messed up, but its kinda hard to tell without seeing the phone. Your symptoms do point to the APN.
The only other thing it could be is a bad modem flash. If you are sure that your APN is fine try flashing a different compatible modem in Odin again...

I deleted all the APNs and I know that the network worked fine like this.
I will try flashing with a firmware that I know worked before and see what happens.
The wierd thing is that the problem appeared after I entered the factory reset code, not after flashing it.

Hopefully the flash will work since it should take care of the modem issue that I was talking about in my previous post.
Best of luck...

I've tried flashing it with a few firmwares and nothing works, the error is the same.
Do you know what could have been affected by the full factory reset ?
Do you want some more info that could help you identify the problem ?

I went to a mobile service and they said they don't know what to do to it.
They tried to unlock the network and this is not the problem.

I screwed up (I think)

Hi All,
Need some help - I've been working more on CDMA phones b/c of sprint, and just flashed my friends captivate (att), but after the flash, have no data or cell service. (I flashed cwm recovery with odin, and then was able to get miui 2.8.3 onto the phone.)
Not sure how to get the cell signal to work, or what needs to be done to get things back to good ...
I see things about flashing back to stock, and then restarting - and i'm lost with the modem files, nothing of them are working so far, but I feel good about it....

Apn settings need to be reset to default... Go to Settings/ Wireless and network/ Mobile networks/ Access Point Names then hit capacitve menu button then "Reset to default".
And if that doesn't work, u probably need to flash an appropriate modem.

Also you can try entering the APN yourself. Just Google the name of your network, and apn. You should find the info you need to create a new apn.
