[Q] Data issue after taking 5.1 update on XT1053 - Moto X Q&A

Since I took the OTA for 5.1 on my xt1053 (US GSM dev ed), I have a few issues:
1. While I can connect to mobile signal for phone calls and texts, I cannot connect for data. The status bar indicator for mobile always has an exclamation. I cannot connect. I am using T-mobile. Wifi works perfectly.
2. On nearly every reboot, Android "optimizes all apps" which takes 10-15 minutes. Very slow to reboot the phone.
I am not sure what happened, but I will retrace my steps:
a. I was using 4.4.4 rooted with an unlocked bootloader.
b. In order to take OTA, I reflashed tmo_retail_xt1053_4.4.4_213.44.1.ghost_row.retail.en.us_mr4_cfc using fastboot. (Otherwise OTA would fail, likely because I had make some minor changes while under root to system files like camera_click.ogg and bootanimation.zip.)
c. After this, OTA took perfectly. My first installation was fine, maintaining all of my apps from 4.4.4, but a few apps would crash quite often, and I was having the "optimizing all apps" issue. The data from t-mobile, however, was perfectly fine.
d. I did a factory reset in order to start fresh with a clean install. Once I did this, I started to have the issue with data connectivity.

Can anyone help? Did I flash the wrong radio somehow? If moto had released 5.1 software images, I could reflash, but they do not seem to be available.

Okay so I ran into the same issue on my XT1053 T-Mobile. What worked for me was adding a new fast.T-Mobile APN. Once I saved it and switched to the new APN, data was working for me. Note: eventually somehow the phone defaulted back to the original T-Mobile 260 APN but data still continues to work after that. Good luck I've seen at least one other user with this problem solved by adding the new APN.

Correction: Not Solved
Using the apn that Perfoliate posted. Only thing is that API type did not have wap as an option, so i selected ipv4/ipv6. Lets see if this survives a reboot. Many thanks.
Update: after a reboot...
1. The optimizing apps still is occuring, making each reboot take about 10 mins.
2. The new APN did not work on boot. I toggled airplane mode off and then back on, and I am now connected to data. Odd. Partial solution (with airplane mode toggle) is much appreciated, Perfoliate.

Major 3G issues n1/AT&T

I am having major 3G issues with my n1 on AT&T. This seems to have started when I upgraded to Froyo and the latest radio. I've had this issue with both CM6-RC1 (currently running) as well as LeoFroYo. I have checked the APN settings and they seem correct as I got them from the cyanogenmod wiki APNlist. I get connected to 3G and the H icon appears showing that I'm on HSDPA. It works fine long enough for me to do exactly one thing. I can either load a webpage, make one call, or send one SMS and then it dies. It stays on the 3G network (never drops to edge) but the up arrow just stays lit and the down arrow never lights up. All calls will fail, no data, no SMS/MMS. If I cycle in and out of airplane mode or reboot it'll let me do one more thing... rinse, repeat.
If I go to "Network Operators" and search it finds AT&T and says it has registered on the network.
Current info:

[Q] No Data Connectivity after Overcome Flash

I just flashed Overcome 3.1 on the my ATT Galaxy Tab 7. The rom is super smooth. Everything appeared to go flawlessly however once completed I was unable to establish a proper data connection.
Its shows 4 bars and says connected to ATT as the "Network" under the Status menu. However the "Mobile Network State" is listed as disconnected.
If I go into the Mobile Network Settings. Under Network Operators ATT is listed under Auto Connect and if I rescan it accepts the choice and then says Registered on Network.
I cannot browse the internet. I called ATT and they were able to send me a SMS so there is some sort of connection. We could not troubleshoot any further as there systems are down.
I did a vanilla Overcome Install. Is there a post install step that I need to do? I seem to remember a similar issue with my Dell Streak that involved modifying my APN settings. Here are the APN settings for the device. (these are the Overcome defaults i believe)

I read this on this forum somewhere, and has always worked for me when reflashing. This is ONLY for the Pay as You Go data service to my knowledge. Your mileage may vary.
I changed my APN to the following EXACTLY:

I always get a connection this way. No MMS, but I don't use it anyway, that's what my phone is for.
The "broadband" apn is only for the sim card that came with a stock at&t tab, and not for the sim cards we all took from other phones.
For the former phone sim cards, wap.cingular or isp.cingular apn's.
The setting should be to "auto".

Modem: I am not sure how to verify this on the device (Im an n00b). I did follow the wonderful guide on Team Overcome and it recommended using "JK3 Modem" During the install. I would assume this is what I am using. How can I verify this?
PS. I wapped in my phone SIM card and everything works just fine. I can even make phone calls!

This did the trick! I used these settings with the replacement SIM card they gave me at the ATT store...
Good job. The baseband is the modem, so you are using JK3 - that's the best choice for you.

[Q] AT&T Internet slowing down for International Note

For the last few days, I noticed my AT&T internet connection slowed down drastically (from like 3M down to 300k on SpeedTest) and the protocol is jumping back and forth from H to H+ to 3G.
My phone has Fast Dormancy disabled. It would normally stay at "3G" and then jumps to H+ when I started using the Internet. Starting from a few days ago, I noticed it would stay at "H" and then trying to acquire a H+ signal, but sometimes in vain and fell back down to 3G and going in a loop. I toggled Fast Dormancy back on, and it didn't make a difference.
This happens on both the "wap.cingular" and "phone" APN settings. No matter which one I use, now the data speed is only around 300K. It used to be around 3M.
I am on a tiered 4GB data plan. I am not a heavy data user (averaging about 1G to 2G a month) and I never received any text message from AT&T telling me that I am being throttled.
I live in South Florida, and I am wondering if anyone experienced the same slow down. Please share. Thanks. (By the way, on subsequent investigation, I found that rebooting the phone corrected the problem, both yesterday and today.)
I'm having the *exact* same problems up here in Seattle. I hope someone can help us out!
Also in Florida here, had a tiered plan and was experiencing the same regardless of APN used too.
I was told, "With THAT phone, you'll never get 4g speeds" twice by a representaive as I voiced my displeasure at the speeds I was getting. "Now, if you want to buy one of our phones, you'll get 4g speeds." I laughed and said, "No, I just want to disconnect my service, I don't want a 2 year contract and I don't want an inferior phone."
similar problems here in NYC
phone way slower
data speeds test confirm up & down speeds are way down cut way more than in half
something is up im gonna give it a few more days before I dump at&t all together
just doesnt make sense 4 me to pay at&t 2 play games w my connection and im sick of the run around nickel and diming they do to us...they want u locked 2 them and they hate.ublocked phones amd freedom
anyhow the service isnt anywhere near as good as they claim at least not here in NYC

Same problem here and I've also experienced no data at times in areas that I have been quite good in the past. My download speeds have gone from a high of 1800kbps last week to about 1200 now. I have a 4G sim card installed and the following are my APN settings:

It seems to have coincided with the release of the at&t note on 2/19
Im in SWFL as well and have noticed significantly slower connections lately on my International Note.
I actually ordred an ATT note and ganked the SIM card to put in my N7000 and am sporting that phone's (the i717) IMEI...I came from a Nitro HD prior to this phone and was getting 9-13 mbps down (no LTE here just H+) and with the same settings am getting half of that now...crazy! Not sure what the deal is but it would certainly be nice to get back to the H+ I had a few weeks ago...

Also I did notice a bit of an increase from the build.prop info that was posted around here earlier...thought it might be worth a shot and ended up being a bit of a boost!
Also forgot to mention that I put my network preference as WCDMA only...that seemed to help speed it up a bit...although seemed counterintuitive (with AT&T being GSM)
Hope we can find some help!!
Considering At&t, they may be throttling all international phones now! Lol

I am currently chatting online with a representative and have pointed her to this forum post. I am hoping she will forward it to the ATT engineers. I will let you know when we are finished! She is currently consulting with a Tier 2.
---------- Post added at 01:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:33 PM ----------
All done with the rep. They couldn't figure it out, of course, but she said she was going to try and get this post and my information to the engineers to see if they can figure it out. It's better then nothing I guess...
As I mentioned in my first post, a temporary fix (for me at least) seemed to be a reboot. After a few days of experiencing this bizarre phenomenon, I decided to reboot my phone yesterday morning, and that seemed to correct it for a while.
This morning when I witnessed the H,H+,3G loop again and tested the speed, it was like 300K. I immediately rebooted the phone and re-tested. The speed went back to the usually 2M-3M range. It has remained so for the last few hours. (knock on wood)
I am wondering if AT&T is tweaking their towers to optimize them for the new AT&T-branded Note. The fact that the International Note now idles at "H" instead of "3G" is definitely different than before. (To be exact, when you access the Internet actively, it goes up to H+, which is expected. But when you are done, it dips to 3G for a split second before reverting to an idle state of "H".)
erase the proxy and proxy port lines
If there is one major problem for me it is data speeds. I'm in Boston and AT&T's speeds & connectivity here are atrocious. Any tips on increasing speeds e.g. settings/apn's etc are appreciated. btw I have always disabled fast dormancy, which doesn't really seem to do much difference on or off.

I've never actually had the proxy and port proxy, but oddly enough I just tried it with and it was even worse. btw I think mmsc is required for proper mms, and shouldn't have any effect on data transfer (I think)
Did you guy see this portion?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1437805
You still have to disable a feature on your Note called Fast Dormancy. Fortunately, this is really quick and easy to do. But first, what the hell is that, and why do I have to disable it? Well without getting all technical, simply put, it's a feature which allows a device to very quickly switch from an idle data state to UMTS/HSPA/HSPA+ and back to idle again, and generally work more efficiently, thus improving performance, and saving battery life. Problem is, in order for this feature to work, BOTH the device and the network that device is on need to support it. Unfortunately, AT&T does not currently support Fast Dormancy. As a result, by having fast dormancy enabled on your device, it'll have the complete opposite effect than what it was intended to have. Basically, your battery life will suck more, data connections will be erratic, slow, and unreliable, and you're effectively wasting data overhead on a feature that, for AT&T, just doesn't exist. Disable it, and your Note will fly like it was intended.
To disable Fast Dormancy, from your dialer, enter in *#*#9900#*#*
This should pull up your SysDump menu. There, close to the bottom it should indicate your current Fast Dormancy state, enabled by default. Select that option, and it should indicate that Fast Dormancy is disabled. Exit and enjoy! Reboot the phone for good measure though. You generally don't have to, but sometimes it irons out any issues that may arise.

Yep sure did...some really good info there. I did and tried just about all the settings and they worked quite well but after some tweaking I figured the settings I'm currently using seem to work out pretty well. Good looking out tho!
Noticed the same issue on my international Note - slow/non-existent internet connection, phone/text does not seem to be affected.
It also seems like my battery is running down faster, like it's searching for a signal all of the time. I disabled Fast Dormancy awhile back.
This all started around Friday for me. Hope it gets fixed by AT&T or someone finds a workaround.

I've had some luck using the latest modem...that might help you out a bit and also check the settings we've referenced...I found that my APN works best as:

All the other stuff stays as is and name is whatever you like. Also try to set it for WCDMA only. Hope that helps!

[Q] gobbling up data

Just came from the rezound, upgraded to HTC one. The phone is only a week old, all stock, the data doesn't seem to be working right. Always getting connection timeout or just sits there, arrows on top don't even light up. I've gone thru 4 gigs in less than a week and I haven't done anything. Everything is unsynced and background data is restricted. Called Verizon and got some girl who wouldn't do anything but have me take out the SIM card. Any fix or any suggestions? I can also still return the phone, I'm still under the 14 day trial.

[Q] Exclamation point, No mobile data, Lollipop

I updated my phone to Lollipop and now I have no mobile data, and it now always says "HOME" under the signal bars, and has an exclamation point to the right of the signal bars, I can make and receive calls however.
I have tried:
Deleting my APN and typing in a new one.
Used the "Network operators" to select a network, - it shows "HOME" and "AT&T", I have tried both, and "Choose automatically".
Removing my sim card, both rebooting with out a sim, and removing the sim and re-inserting with the phone running.
Removing my SD card, and rebooting with it removed.
Wiping the cache.
Factory reset.
Reboot in safe mode.
My boot loader is locked, no root, and I use Straight Talk.
This post lists the steps I took to update to Lollipop, as I had a Consumer Cellular version of the Moto G 2014.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59470751&postcount=114
Is there anyway to fix this without unlocking the boot loader?
If I have to unlock the boot loader, what steps would fix the problem?
Thanks.
I needed a working phone for today, and decided to unlock my bootloader and install a ROM, I decided on:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/development/rom-titan-prime-romversion-1-0-beta-t3048786
unfortunately the problem remains, so what now?
I am thinking I may have to go back to KitKat
Are you absolutely sure you have the APN right? I have an XT1064 with Consumer Cellular on AT&T's network. I'm running Titan Rom Lollipop and I was having similar problems until I fixed the APN. Also, I've never even had to look at Network Operators setting to get data.

I checked with Straight Talk and the settings I am using now are the correct ones for my phone number

That's the APN I've always used. CC gave me 2 APN'S once, one for Data and one for MMS which I promptly ignored and combined both into one.

I had got the phone from eBay, and did a factory restore before I used it, and then installed my Straight Talk SIM and finished setting up the phone and replaced the "TFDATA" default APN with the Straight Talk APN, I did notice both APNs looked the same except the for name, I had believed at the time that the reason why both APNs were the same was that somehow the APN was stored on the SIM and recovered by the phone.
Yep, it looks like the APN I had to switch to seems to be almost exactly the same as Consumer Cellular's APN
