Is anyone having problems with their data dropping when downloading something? I'm losing data when I download a file or an app from the market. I'm hoping its a network issue and not phone. I ruu'd back to stock however the problem still persists.
we might need more info on what your running and your specs.
rom
kernel
pri
prl
etc..
Hello,
I need some help with my Milestone ( Cellcom Israel ).
After installing any custom ROM on milestone: CM6 (before the 6.1 & 6.1), MIUI or the FroyoMod whenever the phone stats it will:
FC every 2-5 seconds over com.android.phone (each time changing the signal to an bar + X on top of it ) and have no Signal (no network found).
I cannot go into mobile networks options (as each FC closes it automatically).
G.O.T 2.2.1 is running perfectly fine with no changes after install (installed the Italy Wind Rom).
Tried to change the Band from the OR to both the italy one + cellcom's (ISRAEL, which is my provided) but nothing helped.
I did manage to get it to work once (after removing the SIM, choosing Italy band, restarting and... i think thats it) but after another restart it got broken again.
I found a topic on this, stating that it might be a SIM problem and that replacing it will fix it, but its not much of an option (as there is nothing wrong with it to the provided).
Does anyone has a clue?
Thank you for your help,
Alon
My device has problems just like your MS, I asked this issue throughout the topic, but still do not have the correct answers.
someone said that the error was due to sim, change the sim will solve the problem but I think something was at fault in the development process. eg FroyoModv1. EclairMod, Ho! No! Froyomod, there are not errors. But MIUI, CM6.0, Sense .. phone.apk crash again.
hope someone will find out this error and help us.
try to do a full whipe clear everything and go back to your stock ROM, flash your version/region SBF with RSDlite from http://and-developers.com/sbf
and replace Simcard as stated
Well, i will try replacing the SIM, but im not sure that the provider will just approve of that.
I mean come'on, i can't tell them it doesnt work on CM6
as for the whole wipe, ammm, maybe ill try it later on today, in order to install CM6, i must install the GOT2.2.1 first ?
haha, just tell your provider that your sim has been lost and get another one.
I will do it in spare time .
Well this is weird.
Reinstalled MIUI, same problem
turned on and off airplane mode 10 times (while trying to fix), moved to 2g and other **** in the mobile network options, NADA.
Restarted, reinstalled ITALY BAND.
restart, everything ok.
had my fun with MIUI.
restart, bad again.
repeating the process of installing the italy band doesn't help anymore.

if you want totry, I'll tell you my experiences.
flash rom and switch on airplane mode, then restart. when the operating system booted, turn off airplane mode and everything is back to normal until you restart it again.

hmmm, that makes sense.
I probably left it on when I was experimenting with the airplane mode I'll give it a try later on ,damn this is annoying!
So this is probably a rom issue... I wonder why the sim card change fixes it.
I'm having an issue with my HTC One. I had been on Paranoid Android, working fine for several weeks (so I didn't flash the wrong version for my Sprint hardware). Last week, I was suddenly showing roaming, with an empty triangle for the signal bars. I tried messing with the RUM/SIM/NV settings, but it didn't resolve the issue. I ended up reflashing back to stock 1.29 via the RUU, but still showed an 'x' next to my signal bars. I then let it update to 1.31 (damn...) but that didn't solve the issue either. If I go into the Network info under About phone, I show 0 signal strength if LTE is disabled. If I enable LTE, then I get signal, and data. Only CDMA is not working.
If I go into the MSL menu (##<MSL>#), it shows 'No' for both MDN and MSID. If I try to enter them, I get a message "Commit Failed" when I try to save them.
Support at the Sprint store wouldn't even look at it because the bootloader was unlocked.
Has anyone had issues with the CDMA radio failing? Anything else to try?

I would take it back to another Sprint store. They are suppose to take your phone and run the RUU. There was a posting from a Sprint employee a few weeks back with the internal company policy - which was to do a reset or run the RUU to put the phone back to stock to determine if it is a software or hardware issue. If hardware issue, Sprint is suppose to then replace the phone.
All androir 4.3 based rom have some data or signal issues with cdma ... I just go back to 4.2, everything is fine. If you have a signal issue with stock rom you should ask for a hardware replacement.

I've never had a 4.3 ROM on this phone. Was on a 4.2 AOSP ROM, and now I'm back on HTC One 1.29 (after upgrading to 1.31, and then RUU'ing back to 1.29 again). No CDMA reception on anything. I'll try another Sprint store. The guy at the one I went to was pretty pompous. He asked if the phone had been rooted. I figured honesty would be best, since he would know that the bootloader had been unlocked as soon as he went into HBoot.

Try changing the mobile network mode to something else in the setting page, then change it back, sometimes it works ...

Airplane mode on and then off. This fixes the issue.

Issue solved
Closing the loop. I found the issue. I must have somehow changed from NV to RUIM/SIM in the Mobile Subscription settings while on a CM based ROM. When I reflashed to stock using the 1.29 (and then 1.31) stock RUU, it doesn't change this setting in the radio. And then there is no access to this setting to correct it in the stock ROM (as far as I could find... maybe there's a hidden ## option). To fix the issue, I had to reflash back to a CM based ROM so that I could access the mobile subscription settings, change it back to NV, and then reflash back to stock and let it do the Handsfree activation. After that, everything is working again.

Would you be able to walk me through that process? I am having the same issue. Where would I find those settings after flashing over to a CM based ROM?
edit: NM Pretty easy to find on a CM based ROM.
Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this. I am on a 4.4.2 stock GPE rom on a m7tmo. The issue is when I disconnect from wifi, mobile data will connect for a few seconds, then disconnect. Eventually data does come back and is solid. Could just be my area and the towers I suppose (Metro Detroit, MI)...anyway just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? Perhaps a kernel could fix or a wipe is needed. Any feedback is appreciated.
im experiencing the same problem. tried everything (wipe, format, changed rom, flash diff radio). the problem is still there.
you can fix it by #*#*4636*#*# > phone info > choose different options (wcdma only, wcdma preferred, gsm only etc) and see which suits your phone the best. me im on gsm only. sometimes wcdma only.
or maybe u can flash different radio.
hope this helps.
and if you are going to send to warranty, make sure u unroot the phone.

I wanted to follow up with a solution to a problem I've had for a long time that I finally resolved, in case others run into a similar issue.
Original symptoms:
- Roaming would transfer no data.
- Forcing to native CDMA 3G mode would not transfer data.
- 4G WOULD work just fine.
- Phone calls worked fine in all modes.
- Signal Check would never display the band like its advertised to do (originally thought it was fault of Signal Check, but its not)
- The Mobile Data screen only had 3 options listed, 4G Settings, Network Mode & Automatic Connections. It didn't list any options regarding roaming, domestic data, International Voice, etc.
- Hands-Free Activation would never work, nor would Update Profile or Update PRL
- Phone would rarely go off of band 25 (1900mhz) to one of the other Sprint bands (26 & 41)
- Popping the sim card in and out while in 3G mode WOULD temporarily fix the 3G data problem, but if I switched to automatic (4G) and back to CDMA (3G) it would stop data transfer on 3G again.
I had wiped, re-wiped, restored from RUU, restored from stock backup several times. Also tried updating radio firmware and PRL using ADB and MSL codes. All to no avail.
Then I did the following... I'm not entirely sure which of these steps actually made the difference, but the following process resolved all the problems above:
0) Did a Titanium Backup of all my apps, and booted into Recovery and did a Nandroid Backup.
1) Booted into Bootloader and ran Factory Reset from HBOOT (Bootloader). Since I have a custom recovery all this did was launch my custom recovery (TWRP), but perhaps it makes a difference going through the Bootloader rather than booting directly into Recovery?
2) Under wipe, ran Factory Reset.
3) After this ran, I went to advanced and wiped Cache and Dalvik again, even though this is already done once from point 2.
4) My backup of my stock image is actually in two parts. So I ran the first restore, then AGAIN cleared Cache and Dalvik.
5) Then I ran part 2 of my Stock backup, and AGAIN cleared Cache and Dalvik.
6) Reboot
7) This time, for the first time ever, when the phone booted the first time it ran hands free activation and was successful, as well as PRL update. Had the phone for several months and this is the first time since the original out of the box activation that it was successful.
At this stage I noticed all the new options under Mobile Data, and tested 3G and it worked! Woo hoo. unfortunately I run a custom ROM so I wanted to put that back on. So I went back from step 1 and did all the steps again but instead of restoring stock I restored my ViperOneM8 ROM. The results were still successful, so I then updated my PRL and Firmware to the latest stuff, forced roam, tested it, forced native 3G, tested it, everything works great. Also now Signal Check correctly displays the band I'm on, which it never did before. Also, my home tower always had me on band 25 before when I looked in the Engineering screen, but after fixing this I'm now on band 26 (800mhz), which is great.
SOOO.. I think from all the things I've tried in the past, the new things that might be making the difference is either:
- Factory Reset initiated from Bootloader
- Cache & Dalvik wipe before and after any Restore.
I've installed ROMS, firmware, used ADB, used my MSL in with various resets, etc. So I figured I always knew what I was doing, but I think one of the very simple things above makes an important difference. Just not sure which step it is, but apparently the little things count.
A couple other related things that users with similar issues should try if this doesn't help:
- Make sure to Update Profile and reboot
- Start a web-chat or phone call with Sprint and ask them to force a Profile Update from their end. I've had success with issues with them initiating a profile update.
Hope this helps others!

I am very happy for you and will try the same today, what new settings did you see under mobile data?
Data roaming sound, roaming guards, roaming, domestic voice, domestic data, international voice, international data and 3 grayd out ones: allow GSM data, access point names, and available GSM networks. Probably disabled because I'm on Sprint (CDMA not GSM)
How do you get to the engineering screen?
I use signal check, and there is a shortcut in that app that launches it.
Sorry for necroposting and being a noob, but this required rooting, right? Could you walk me through it in a little more detail? How to boot into recovery, bootloader, etc.
depends on the phone. I'm only familiar with the M8

First things first, the information in this thread is NOT required to root or unlock the bootloader. There are threads with that information in the general as well as Q&A threads and even the development thread. Also, if you search the internet for HTC DEV you will find their website and they give instructions on unlocking the bootloader.
With the M8, the first step is unlocking the bootloader, then you install recovery and from there you can gain root privileges.
You can also use Sunshine to unlock the bootloader and obtain s-off which is not required to flash custom ROMs, but other firmwares and radios.
Please be aware that unlocking from the HTC dev website will wipe everything. Including pictures (and anything for that matter) stored on internal storage. Sunshine does not.
