no data network,anybody can help me? - Motorola Droid 3

I am a customer of China mobile,I got a xt862,second-hand from internet.I want to use gprs or edge,..phone calls and SMS is good,APN setting up is correct,I try many version of rom, flash kind of radio version,edit the build.prop,finally couldn't see the symbol of the data network.I seached many threads of this forum and try it,but didn't work.Now I really want to know, why I cann't connect the data network,hardware is damage?but wifi is good,and calls and sms work well. I really appreciate any reply.
My xt862's information :system version:5.7.906.xt862.verizon.en.us, model:droid3, android version: 2.3。4,baseband:N-03.18.32p,kernel:2.63537.g5fa4155,* *build number: 535.1._84_d3g-66_m2-10

Replace the libmotoril.so from any patch available for GSM, and be happy.
You can find it on the Developers Thread.

thx your reply

I replaced the libmoto.ril.so,but it doesn't work,that file is sent by a friend who use GSM ,and his edge is good

I want to know
if the hardware module of gprs is broken, can I use the droid 3 to call and send SMS?

Probably not. Are you sure it's a hardware issue?

I am a beginner ,I don't know how to judge the problem is a hardware or a software issue.

You said the hardware module, that's why I asked. What ROM are you running and what is it doing?

Alright, you mentioned you used a china mobile network, first off I suggest flashing the xt883 radio and push in the appropriate build.prop. after loading in the correct apn (double check with your carrier) ensure you have at least default,supl in the apn type.
Ensure data connection (and roaming data) is enabled under battery and data in settings. If your apn requires a user/pass try removing those and rebooting. Also grab the app "Network Signal Info" from the market, from KAIBITS Software, when you open it, should show signal strength and information. Ensure the 'net type' reads edge/umts/hspa etc and not 'unknown' and it should also say enabling data connection if it is trying to enable data. If the edge symbol appears, then disappears and network type says 'unknown' then the carrier is blocking data and you should contact them. I get this situation when roaming on gsm.
If it sticks at connecting to mobile data and says edge on net type, but never connects. Ensure proper apn and if that is correct, try an sbf for a completely clean slate and try again. The stock radio SHOULD work, granted it is an unlocked device. Being as you get talk/sms it should be.
Also, DO NOT modify any libs, all of the libs are for enabling the radio on the xt860 (gsm only version) using xt862 roms.

If you use the xt883 radio on an xt862/droid 3 rom, you have to use a modified build.prop to make it work. If you flash an xt883 rom, I would suggest using the xt883 radio as well.

the software you recoommend is very nice but .....

Aha! According to your screenshot, you are roaming. You will have to go into settings > battery and data manager > data delivary > enable data roaming. That should get your data going.

That picture is come from the sytem use the verizon radio .Because I use it on china mobile,it shows "roaming".Now I flash the xt883 radio,and replace a build.prop,there is no "roaming" indictor .
Everything is in your prediction,you said"If it sticks at connecting to mobile data and says edge on net type, but never connects. " It is the situation ,when the "Network Signal Info" start,I can see the edge symbol appears,the "date state"is "setting up data connection",but the "date activity" shows "no activity".after 7 seconds,the edge symbol disppears,and the "date state" says"disconnected",the "date activiy" says "--"。 Then after 1 minute,reapt this process.
Apn is correct ,in this condition,you suggest I try a sbf? Now my sbf is downlord from this website,the third sbf,is any question?:http://sbf.droid-developers.org/cdma_solana/list.php
expect your guidance and suggestion,thank you !

Use the 906 sbf, last one listed on the site, then root with motofail. Have you tested the sim in an other phone? It connecting for a second, then disconnecting sounds like a carrier end problem. Something else you can try, go into dialer > *#*#4636#*#* > tap phone information > tap menu button > tap enable data connection.
EDIT: Also, do you have any kind of power control programs, such as watchdog, juice defender, etc. Or some kind of security app. They may be disabling your data.

I check the app,I think there is no problem. You said "*#*#4636#*#*......",I have already tried this way,it desn't work. My stock sbf come from that website,906sbf,so I will not re-flash it.
on next Saturday,I will go to another city,and will try the date connnetion.
Thank you for your reply and suggestion,you are eager to help people.

I try to do what I can, sadly from what I can tell, it should all work. Especially when you mention it connects for a second then disconnects. I am inclined to say that it is on the carrier end and not the phone. Can you test your sim in another phone? Or borrow a friends sim to put in yours?

EVDO Problems

I have Damagecontrol V0.9999 installed and data network works great with me but when ever i flash any other rom it stops working and says that service is unavailable. It just starts for first minute when new ROM boots up and then nothing. Not even the icon comes on top
baseband is 2.41.05.02.03
software is 2.26.605.2
Any ideas guys..
Guys please help...
I checked and found out that Version 2.1 works fine on my Phone but 2.1 Update 1 doesnt work. Which may have caused this problems. Any Suggestions..
Not sure I can help much. I'm not with sprint so I'm not real familiar with their settings. I'm Making the Assumption you are. If not let us know what carrier you are with.
Are you able to update your profile from settings >About Phone >Network >Update Profile?
Does the mobile network say connected or turning on in Settings >Wireless & Networks?
It could Be PRI related check it in Settings >About Phone >Software Information and report back with what version you have.
Get that info and note anything else the you think may be relevant ad we'll go from there.
Thanks a lot for the reply.
I am with Reliance CDMA Network in India.
There is no Update Profile setting here >About Phone >Network >Update Profile
Does the mobile network say connected or turning on in Settings >Wireless & Networks?..It says Disconnected because service is unavailable. When i reboot my Device. The 3G ICON comes for a minute or 2 and goes away.
PRI Version is 1.70 in working and 1.70_003 in not working
It also could be an issue with flashing Sprint roms. You might try the bitter sweet Rom.
Do you know if it works in the few moments that comes up. I had reset my PRI and lost my EVDO but it would not work at all, the mobile network would just say turning on all the time and the phone would get hot.
I had to compare/correct settings in the EPST menu with another HERO from my carrier. To access the menu dial ##778# I think the password for edit mode is your MSL mine was 6 zeros yours may be the same. View Mode will not show the Security section info. The settings that finally did the trick for me are below
Security Section
HDR AN Auth User ID
(LONG)
[email protected]
HDR AN Auth Password ID
xxxx
PPP User ID
[email protected]
PPP Password
xxxx
M.IP Default Profile Section
NAI
[email protected]
The HDR AN Auth User ID (LONG) may or may not start with evdo but from 2 carriers that I looked at they were similar. The small x's will be specific to you carrier. The capital Xs were my 10 digit phone number. Like I said best thing would be to do a side by side compare of yours and someone's that is working.
If all this compare and are all good I guess it is possible it could be hardware related. Good luck
But it works with Darkchoid and Damage Control V0.9999 but not other roms. Do these setting changes with ROMS
Mine did that. I put in airplane mode and back to normal and it restarted the data service and now it works

guys plz help
Try dialling *#*#4636#*#* and go into "Phone Info". Hit the menu button then "More". There should be an option there to enable data connection. Also, did you make sure that Sprint DSA is disabled?
I am having similar issue but I have no internet at all . Just got a replacement phone today from nTelos . Got home , created goldcard and ruu to sprint . Rooted the phone and now the Evdo is not working ? I can make calls and receive and all that , however, no internet ??
I went ahead flashed Fresh Toast v2.1 and matching radio but still nothing ?? Any ideas ??

APN connection don't work.

I'm having this problem for almost a month.
I tried several different ROMs (2.3.5, 2.3.6, 4.0.) With the same result "NO DATA".
I downloaded dozens of apps in an attempt to activate and configure my APN but without success and also tried to manually configure. I tried with 2 different SIM CARD'S that work well on other devices.
Through Wi-Fi everything works fine.
Please help me

Actually, the Droid 3 and the Milestone 3 are quite a bit different. The Droid 3 refers to the XT862, which is a dual mode CDMA/GSM phone, while the Milestone 3 refers to the XT860, which is GSM only. The XT860 is sold under various names in other areas of the world, however it is not called a Droid 3 in any of those places due to copyright issues with the name Droid.

What kind of ROMS have you been installing? (Custom ROMs? or Stock ROMs?)
Almost all the current custom ROMS for this phone are Verizon / DROID3(XT862) friendly. There are things you may have to do to the ROM to get it to accept your APN's (like maybe replacing the ROM's libmoto_ril.so with your stock one?). I put together the steps for the Bell (Canadian) XT860. (Link below). BUT!! I don't know if this will work for your situation... hopefully this helps as a reference.

we have 8 different ROMs, all of them are official. Tested with at least four of them.
I tested also with other non-official, ex. ICS CM9
Just to reinforce. Before the problem I had already used several of these ROMS the link above and all worked well.
Before the problem have also used several unofficial ROM and all worked fine as well.

So - right now if you install the "Milestone 3 Retail Brasil SBF" (which sounds like it matches your phone exactly), you are saying that you still will not get data?
I think you should install that SBF, then look at the APN to make sure it has the correct info (the APN should be correct because it's an official SBF). If there is no data still, check:
1) Is your mobile data enabled in the settings? (I know, bad question)
2) Is it possible that you're technically in a "roaming" area? (and roaming data is disabled in settings? I know... another bad question!)
I cant think of anything else... sorry... in my experience, an SBF flash has always fixed everything!
This sounds similar to what I would experience when installing a Custom (verizon/xt862-based) ROM on my XT860. They would ONLY allow APN's that contained a Verizon MNC and MCC. When I would try to put in my Bell or Rogers APN, the MNC and MCC wouldn't match, so when I hit save, it would simply discard (leaving my APN list empty).

This problem is driving me crazy, makes no sense.
Like I said I'm trying with two different carriers. The two sim cards work fine on other devices. Just place and use. A relevant information found here is that the "STATUS" have "mobile network type" = edge "service state" in service = "roaming" and not roaming "mobile network state" alternates between connecting and disconnected. (2 in 2 minutes approximately).
About configuring APN. I tried all manual and automatic (using apps on the two carriers)
I'm used to reinstall the operating system of computers to "solve everything" in smartphones should be the same.
Do you know any way even if doing a "root" I view the LOG this connection APN? would be great.

Try an app called APNBRASIL

Hi,
I'm wondering if you might be able to help me.
I'm currently using a Droid 3 (from Verizon, XT862) in Australia.
I'm assuming it is already GSM unlocked, as I just put my SIM card into it and was able to make and receive phone calls and SMS.
However, I am unable to get any sort of mobile data connection (besides WIFI).
I have tried tweaking the mobile network settings to use GSM/UMTS instead of Global network mode, but when I do, it drops the network signal and asks me if I want to revert to Global network mode. In the global network mode the APN and Operator Selection options are disabled, so there is no way I can actually set up my provider's APN.
Any ideas?
THanks.
Switch to GSM/UTMS.

Hi, thanks for your reply.
I managed to switch the preferred network mode to GSM/UMTS.
It's also set to "automatic network selection".
However, when I set my provider's APN (I've done it several times), nothing happens. No connection.
I've enabled the data. I've also tried the "Reset to default" option in APN.
Would this be a radio problem?
I mean, the phone's connecting to the network (I can make and receive calls).
Cheers.

Need some help with my MotoX - Not registering on my network

Hi Everyone,
I got me a used MotoX, a customized version with a back cover and a badgers logo (go badgers!)
Anyway, it worked fine in the US on At&t, it worked fine in Europe, but now i'm in Israel and i can't get it to work on my network. I tried to put in a friend's SIM from another network and it worked just fine, it's just my company's SIM that does not work -> the SIM is recognized, the device is looking for a signal but fails, and tells me that "No Service | Selected network (GOLAN T) unavailable"
My device is an xt1053
The network is Golan Telecom - (google that for the wikipedia page, xda wouldn't let me post the link cuz i'm a n00b)
I have no idea what could be done, i don't even know where to start looking up this problem, or what should i even be looking for...
Any sort of information that might be remotely helpful would be appreciated!
thanks in advance..

Thanks a lot mate, i did try that. Nothing.
Do you reckon it might be related to the rom installed? i mean, is there a chance that it would work if i install a custom rom?
It's also possible your network might be blocking the phone's IMEI and/or your SIM. Check your sim with another phone. If sim works then check with your network provider on the status the IMEI (and ask them to unblock it if it is indeed blocked by accident).
You can get the number in settings -> About phone -> Status or you can just dial *#06#

Android 5.1.1. Update Disables Mobile Data (D5803)

Hello,
I recently updated my Z3 compact (D5803) to android 5.1.1. on the T-Mobile network here in NYC. Ever since then, I frequently lose the ability to do anything data-based with the phone. No web browing, no chatting on whatsapp. I can still make phone calls and send/receive SMS, however. The data functionality returns when on WiFi, but goes away once I switch back to LTE. In order for me to get data on LTE, I have to manually download the internet settings for my provider to my phone (this is located under the Settings menu in android). Even then, it only lasts for several minutes before the data connection is lost. T-Mobile was unable to fix the problem, and changing the SIM card didn't resolve the issue.
Anyone else experience this?
Yes, many others have the same problem, see various posts in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/discussion-5-1-1-stock-released-post-t3162309
Currently, the best workaround seems to be to disable and re-enable mobile data, or to go to airplane mode and back again. That solves the issue until you drop LTE connection the next time, then you will have to re-iterate.

Yes I am having the exact same problem since updating to 5.1.1. As the other reply says turning airplane mode off then on is the quickest way to get connectivity back (swipe down twice from the top for quick access). This is terribly frustrating though, it only lasts for a few minutes. I can't believe they pushed the update with this issue!

My phone had this issue after the over the air update. I reset the phone to factory, wiped all data. Two days on, now, and no more problems with this.
Same problem. I tried factory reset out of desperation, but it didn't work.
Love this phone, but very discouraged by this bug.
(I'm on t-mobile in Seattle, fwiw)

As posted in the other thread, there is now a fix/workaround:
From reddit user FishStik5: Going into the APN settings and changing the APN protocol to iPv4 only (it was iPv6 before) seems to fix the problem.
How to find the setting: Settings-> Wirelessa and Network / more -> Mobile networks -> APN -> T-mobile data -> APN protocol -> Set to IPv4.

Looks like this worked for me (T-mobile, San Francisco area). Thanks for posting this
i'm having the same problem and didn't work for my the ipv4. still loosing data, i have to reboot the phone
I have also problem with that (Orange, Poland). I sent my phone to official Sony service, they reload the software, but I still have that problem. Lte is working for a while and when my phone switches to wcdma (because it is not in a range of lte) it is not working either. However, when I change the preferred network from lte to wcdma it is working without any issues.
Same problem here although I'm on ipv4 [emoji34]
Sent from my Z3 Compact
I thınk you shouldnt buy operator phones. Buy ınternatıonal models next tıme
Mine isn't an operator model, I'm using Straight Talk and also have the issue. It made my phone useless....I almost never have data
This worked for me
This worked on my Doogee Valencia2 Y100Pro
Install and Open app "Hidden Android Settings" (by 0Alex)
Select choose and open "RadioInfo"
Move to Last option "TOGGLE DNS CHECK"
mine read "0.0.0.0 not allowed"
press the "TOGGLE DNS CHECK" so that it displays "0.0.0.0 Allowed"
That's it - my mobile data worked, I hope it works for yo

1. Change "APN Protocol" to IPv4
2. Change "APN Type" to: "default,supl" only
3. Change "APN" to "internet"
4. Save.
Best, Martin.

this is a bug on 5.1.1 sony need to fix it
Any news with this issue?
No problem here with LTE on the CM 12.1 Cyanogenmod flavor of 5.1.1 on T-mobile (that I've noticed at least). But I think CM 12.1 may handle the APN settings differently (mine is set to T-Mobile LTE ipV4) from the stock ROM or it could be something Sony messed up from the AOSP code. I'm NOT suggesting anyone try a CM ROM as a solution as there are lots of downsides to unlocking your phone and flashing any non-stock ROM. But the problem does seem to be specific to the Sony ROM and not 5.1.1 in general.
I also have this problem after the update to 5.1.1 in the Netherlands. The first problem was that the update changed some mobile data settings, so I downloaded the settings from my provider. Unfortunately those settings were also incorrect as I had to manually remove the APN's Proxy and Port (they were set, be needed to be 'not set'/empty). This improved the connection a bit, but it still looses the mobile data at certain places (where the coverage is good). Did a factory reset as the Sony helpdesk suggested. For a few days this seemed to help, but again the same issue came up. The suggested solution mentioned in this thread did not work as those settings are already applied.
I have a profider (Telfort) which uses another provider's network (KPN's). So after the update I also see a annoying R in the signal icon, where in the previous version it always showed H+, H, 3G.
Does anyone know if this is resolved in the new update?
After the last update and a new reconfiguracion on the APN now work correct for me.

And which version are you on? 23.4.A.1.200 or 23.4.A.1.232?

"Error while searching for network" on non-stock ROM

I bought a used XT1806 off someone local. They had AOSP Extended installed and was using it with Verizon. I use T-Mobile and tried to use the ROM with T-Mobile but WiFi calling wouldn't work.
I tried flashing a few ROMs but all the ROMs have the same problem. Under the mobile network settings, I get a "Error while searching for network" popup. It connects to T-Mobile fine but I can't force it to search for networks.
I have my IMEI showing properly, but this error prevents me from checking network settings and causes issues with WiFi calling. My phone will get "kicked" off the network randomly when this happens and I have to reboot the phone in order for it to go back out of emergency calls only mode.
I flashed it back to stock Nougat and everything works as designed, WiFi calling and all, so I'm lost for where to go from here. Does T-Mobile WiFi calling just not work on non-stock right now? On any non-stock ROM I am completely missing the IMS details that show up on stock Nougat, and the network is super flakey.
Go to the play store, find and download the App Hidden Menus from Craig Newell. Open it up and see what hidden Menus it has for your carrier.. Play around in there and see if you can find something of use.. I did with Sprint, but haven't tried it out on any custom roms.

What settings did you find with Sprint? There's nothing useful for me besides the testing menu on stock Nougat and T-Mobile.

I found under *#*#3282#*#*: Data Settings, which include Data Profile, EVDO, Advanced, eHRPD, LTE, Apn setting LTE-Available.
Then under *#*#33284#*#* I found HiddenMenuApp, which includes 1xEngineering EVDO Engineering, LTE Engineering, Configuration, Bluetooth, Data Status, Memory State, eHRPD
These are just a few of which I have found.There are a bunch of stuff under the title SprintDM as well.
I mentioned in a topic I started, that these might be handy for those who try custom rom, and have big issues with Sprint service and data.. This is why I haven't installed any custom roms yet, as I don't have the time, and this is my primary phone, and can't afford for it to go BOOM, when I need it. LOL

Yeah, on stock WiFi calling is working great. Are you running stock or some custom Oreo?
