[Q] fluctuating mobile interent 3g on all roms - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i've been using many roms from sweet rom, rocket rom, aryamod to vengenence note to cm9/cm10/cm10.2/cm11 to asylum/asylum omni to c-rom etc.... im currently using c-rom
In every single rom i've been getting a similar issue, where randomnly when im not on wifi and i attempt to use the mobile internet, the phone won't change from from edge/2g to 3g, to solve the issue i usually have to turn earplane mode on then off. of course sometimes it works flawlessly. its just its an issue that is quite irritating sometimes.
Is this something I just have to live with? or can i potentially fix this? if so, how? I would be greatful if anyone can offer any help.
thanks in advance.

Losing data connection (NOT wifi but HSPDA, EDGE...)

This is about all the data connection through the MOBILE provider, so not WIFI.
It is after x time when the phone is on. Maybe it is GPS related.
But bottomnline: the icon with the H or the E(dge) is there and it is even flashing for data, however every app stats there is no connection to the network.
After a reboot all is fine.
Other persons are also experiencing this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=675786&highlight=huuub
I am using cyanogens latest with one of pershoots latest, but other kernels show the same behaviour.
My guess is that everyone has this problem? Is this a bug somewhere?
This happensto mine as well. I just switch in and out of flight mode to fix it.

So why make a new thread if you've already found one that fits your problem?

This is a carrier issue. Not the Rom. trust me.
I have not that impression. Why do you?

Oh, ok, I should trust you. If you hadn't told me to trust you, I wouldn't have, but now that you did tell me, I do.
I think it's a software issue, as do many other people. Never had this problem with tmobile on any other phone.
Oh, I almost forgot: trust me.
Does anyone here notice it seems to get lost after leaving a wifi connection? Like this bug?

I have the same problem, im using modaco CM mod 5.0.6
I don't remember to have this problem with modaco desire/nexus Rom

I've experienced this more frequently on Cyanogen roms vs. Modaco's.
really a bug ?
ok guys, I am completely in a stock 2.1 rom .. no mods whatsoever and not rooted as well .. to get this problem, use wi-fi for a while(5mins example) and then disable it .. then use ur gprs/edge and see if it works.. the small E logo will show and the upstream arrow will glow white but downstream arrow will stay dark gray.. both should glow white when accessing the net but it doesn't after using wi fi .. this is really pissing me off having to restart my phone everytime this happens and I use both wi fi and gprs for everyday use .. can someone check to see if this problem is persistent ? thanks ..
Juicedefender is the cause
Ok, I figured out what was causing these problems. And I found out that after uninstaling Juicedefender my Cell connection returns. Anyway Juicedefender didn't seem to do so much for me anyway. (on the contrary I believe)
Can anybody confirm?

[Q] IncS MIUI 2.4.13 - GPRS/HSPA keep changing

Hi all,
I'm using latest MIUI ROM atm and love it. however there's a problem of the signal sign which stays on G all the time unless i'm doing any data-related task such as browsing or facebook. at that moment it will quickly change to HSDPA.
not sure if it's a feature or a bug by MIUI?
i have used trinity, coredroid and icecold, they're all good staying in H/3G
Just wondering if anyone else experiencing the same issue with MIUI rom?
I already tried the 27/28/29 radio as well
thanks for the replies

Does this happen everywhere or only in certain locations?
am sure you are aware that gprs/3g is dependent on the network strength.
so it could be cos of a low signal strength area.
since you have tried a couple of radios, try any other rom & check if the problem persists
My phone behaves like this too. But I believe it's carrier specific because when I was using the previous operator the signal always stay in H. Once I begin using current operator, the signal stay in 3G and will switch to H if I access mobile data.
Hi all,
yeah I did try other ROMs and it works alright (trinity and coredroid + icecold)
with the MIUI, the problem persists everywhere even when I change the radio
very hard for me to change MIUI because of the feature and the smoothness
now I set it to use 2G only to save battery
I guess it's not a feature in MIUI since changing between GPRS/HSPA drains the battery?

Actually you can try changing some settings in /system/build.prop. Look for these two settings:
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=6
ro.ril.hsxpa=2
If they're of different values, change them, reboot and see if there's any difference. Don't worry, if anything goes wrong, just change them back.

WIFI signal randomly dropping on ICS

Ok random problem for me..
Using the note since December last year with no problems... Until now!
Have tried most custom roms now but have recently stuck with stock as I like to use the sky go app so I can watch the F1 at work.
My problem is with any ICS Samsung based ROM my wifi keeps dropping and then reconnecting but the strange thing is only with my virgin media dlink router. If I connect to my BT home hub its fine (but so slow on YouTube etc and my PC is hooked to the virgin line which I use for all share)
Is there a fix for this? I don't want to go back to GB even though the connection problem doesn't occur there as I'm one of the few who actually likes stock ICS. I have done a search and there are a lot of complaints threads etc even with the s2 but no definitive fixes. Any and all help and suggestions appreciated
Cheers

OpenWrt
Have the same issue with Stock SGN ICS and routers with OpenWrt. Still dont know what causing it.
Regards.
Yeah, I´ve been experiencing that too. I have been working abroad recently, and when I was at home it seemed fine so I assumed it was the network rather than the phone. Using it side by side with my ipod, the ipod is working more consistently, so I wonder if it just has problems holding a connection when the wifi signal is weak (all the routers here are wireless G, while at home I used a newer N router). I noticed, in particular, that when the ipod was reporting very poor signal, the note was giving good signal, but was not able to connect, and then lost connection altogether.
Do you still get drops if you have your phone very close to the access point?
I get less frequent drops if im closer but it still loses connection then auto reconnects. I just never had this problem with GB.
Well i thought i'd try a couple of the custom roms.. So far King Droid 4.2, AllianceRom V1, Cassies XLR and now on RocketRom v7. They are all doing it. Im at my wits end.
So im now gonna try a few different kernels.. If i remember rightly the kernel handles the WIFI?

Wi-Fi dropping constantly

Hi Everyone,
As title says, a few weeks ago I noticed that my wifi keeps dropping no matter what I do.. this being as i surf and not in sleep mode or anything like that.
How did it start?
when it happened this is what i did, went to GB rooted rom, flashed up to JB room paranoid android, all worked fine except i noticed wifi kept dropping, tried another jb rom ,same thing, tried ics kingdroid rom, same thing. So then I decided to go back to original official stuff GB, same thing.. wifi dropping, went to official ICS, still wifi keep dropping.
What I have done to try to fix it:
Tried different roms, networks, all settings in Wifi settings. Googled like 3 days straight, mostly this seems to be a galaxy s3 problem not a galaxy note problem. A few people said they solved it by giving it a static ip which wouldnt work for me as im on like 3 different networks, and by changing sleep settings to make sure it doesnt shut off during sleep mode, which i honeslty have no problem with. Someone solved it by switching rom, nothing i find applies to me..
So what do I do??
I would honestly appriciate any suggestion, this is a great community so I got high hopes Sorry if my question has been answered before but I dont belive so, i posted in noob thread any noone had suggestion so I hope I dont do anything wrong with this post.. cheers :victory:

What's your modem? Go to settings > about> baseband
thanks for the reply it's n7000xxlrk , it's it suppose to be that?

The operation of Wi-Fi is a core responsibility. Try changing the kernel. Modem is responsible for the connection to GSM. If you change the kernel does not help, you probably have a broken phone.

well i have weak wi fi signal.. Most of the modems don't work for me.. Ddlp4 is the one i use..and no the kernel has nothing to do with wifi signal strength
Check your router and see if WPA Wireless network encryption is set to AES, if it is, change it to TKIP., see if you can connect after.
Usually it's nothing to do with the ROM, modem, kernel, android or even the phone itself, it might be your router setting that needs a change.
Know it was long since I made this thread but I wanted to report result, it was as above poster said. Rouer settings, finally found compatible ones after sooo manny roms, modems and other fixes were attempted.

CM 7 and 10 always lost signal

Hi all,
I'm always losing cellular signal when using CM 7 or 10 roms.
And I will not be aware of the problem until I try to make calls, then the signal indicator will turn to an "X". Which means I could be missing incoming calls.
It doesn't matter which baseband I use. This problem always occur as soon as on the same day I install the rom.
I don't have this problem however as long as I'm using stock roms (30A, 20S, 20Q, etc), even if the rom is from other regions.
I'm from Singapore and having the signal problem on M1 and Starhub. Would really like to use CM roms and appreciate if any one can help.
Thank you.

Use SU1120 BB
OK. I have flashed my BB to the SU1120 as suggested. Will monitor from here.
Thanks.
Update: With Temasek's Kang, the phone has been working well for the first 36 hours since flashing. However, i have been having signal lost a few times already today but the signal always manage to come back after some times.
So I guess SU1120 is better than all other BB that I've tried, though signal lost still happens. Looks like I have to stick to the stock rom with stock kernal.
Those in Singapore, what BB are you using with CM7 / CM10? Do you encounter signal lost?
