I have a Rogers/Fido/Telus Nexus S. I tried a bunch of ROM's, CM7, ASOP, NSColab, Honycomb port. And then I realized that my 3G stopped working. I'm only getting Edge. My baseband version says "NO DGSXXXKB1", in the bootloader, carrier info says ATT. Any ideas?
do I need to re-flash the GRI40 radio again?
Same problem here. Initially all was working fine, then I tried to play with 2G/3G settings in Power Widget (CM7) since then, I am only able to get Edge connection.
I reset, changed firmwares, went back to my original Nandroid backup, no help.
I was also getting the Roaming Icon indicator on Fido's network, even though I purchased the Fido branded Nexus-S...
Tried changing Radio, KB1 and KB3, still no go.
I have owned Nexus One, Desire, Desire HD, Samsung Galaxy-S and Nexus-S
Never had issues except with Samsung phones!
Anyway, relocked NAND and this phone is going back.
Same. I was ASOP and the 2G was enable by default. I changed it to 3G and never saw 3G again. I thought swapping radios would do it, apparently not. Really weird. I guess I'm returning mine as well. Hopefully Future Shop will not snoop around too much.
Do you think odin would work?

The version of the phone changed to GRI40 which if I'm not mistaken is the T-mobile one. Which would explain everything. I hope one of the devs could help us out.
APN missing?
I have the same problem guys. After flashing CM7, I can only get edge connection. Whenever I turn on 3G from the toggle, a "H" sign will appear,but no internet at all! Wtf. Hope there is a solution for this. Back on stock nexus s (slcd i9023) for now

i just read somewhere else that after flashing the wcdma setting in *#*#4636#*#* got set to the wrong option. so type that and go change it back to wcdma preferred, or your preference.

Never hit the 2G/3G button. Its broken, been broken and doesnt work as of yet. Just dont hit it.
Had the same problem. For some reason it was on the wrong band (if that's possible). in the *#*#4636#*#*, phone information, menu, select radio-band, USA, and fixed!
Still getting no 3G/H on my CM7. I even tried the *#*#4636 method, still no go. However I can surf the browser to sites like google, facebook etc. But whenever I want to sync my google acc, I will get a network error. Wtf? One thing that I noticed is that, my signal bars won't "light up" (but I can surf the net). Another thing, after flashing to CM7, my build number changed to GRI40 instead of GRI54 in the settings on stock. Maybe that is the problem?

Put this into your dial pad: *#*#4636#*#*
Then hit Phone Information
Then hit the menu button and select radio band, the select corresponding Country.
USA will fix our issues.
I found a dirty workaround for this problem. Turn on airplane mode, then turn it off. Worked for me.
Same issue for me on the Nexus One. 3G icon is there when phone is idle. As soon as I try to do anything data-related (ie. browser) it switched to an H.
Tried setting to USA, no dice. APN is internet.com
crap I guess no root for my nexus S until this canadian carrier thing is resolved...
I thought i would throw in my experiance
I bought a Nexus S from Telus, and i am using it with a Sasktel Sim on Bell/Sasktel network (live in sask but have a national account from Bell) and on stock, i could never get H.....only the 3g would show up. But that was short lived because i flashed CM7 on it and the H now appears and works perfectly fine
So i dunno if its a Rogers frequency thing/problem, but the phone works great on HSPA on Bell/Sasktel

Hi, I just got a brand new Xperia Play and am loving it so far, aside from one infuriating issue.
When I'm on WIFI I simply cannot download anything from the market, I've been messing with this for the past 2 hours, things I've tried:
Clearing app cache of several apps related to downloading
Toggling WIFI / 3G
Restarting phone
Updating to latest firmware
Reset to factory settings
Play with router wireless settings
Reinstall router firmware
The only thing that did something is clearing the cache of the download manager, after I did that I was able to install one thing from the market. But it only worked once, it's not working anymore.
I'm also unable to play youtube video's when using wifi.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening? My phone is brand new, so it can't be something I did with it.
Also, up till today I had an HTC Magic, which did not have the problem on the same wireless network. It did have occasional "download starting" hiccups, but nothing like this.
Any advice?
Thanks!

Edit2: False alarm, still not working.. seems to come and go
You have the weirdest problem.. Did you check your router to see if it's generating enough ip addresses for all your wireless devices?
What is the distance between you and your router and what kind of router is it? I believe the play has a weaker wifi radio, so it might be dcing too often to stream and download.. Try standing closer to the router to see if there is a difference first.
Sent from my XPlay using XDA App.
I'm right next to the router and the web interface shows a full signal, so it can't be that. I can also see in the web interface that an ip address was assigned.
I've tried setting the phone as the DMZ and disabling the router firewall. No luck with that either.
I also tried upgrading my router firmware from Tomato to DD-WRT and doing a factory reset, but again .. no luck.
I'm running out of ideas, it seems the problem originates from Android and not my router, but I can't think of anything else I could try. Could it be an issue with the Android network in my location?
Omfg.. 3/4 hours later I finally got it, and this one wasn't suggested anywhere else so hopefully this will help some others in the future.
I had to go into wireless settings on my phone, click menu, go to advanced and then manually configure the network connection. Make sure your router has reserved an ip for you and use that one, otherwise you might end up trying to use one that is already in use.
After that it all seems to be working for me (so far). Fingers crossed that it won't stop working again.
Yea you couldn't find the answer anywhere else because it seemed like it was an isolated incident. Gratz for figuring it out though.

Next day, working fine in the morning. Couple hours later and it's back to getting stuck on "Downloading". Tried toggling static ip with no luck.
God this is incredibly annoying. I'm guessing it'll magically start working again at some point, and then stop working again later.
From what I've found through google this bug has been around since the very first version and not a single solution has been offered by google. Seriously this is ridiculous
Hi,
I'm having exactly the same issues.... Normal browsing, etc works fine on WIFI but market just wont work on WIFI.
I dont even see the device hitting my router when I try to download thru the market. Other network connections are seen by my router.
I wonder if it might be linked to the the fact that I'm running a UK rom on my device. When I'm using my data connection off Rogers, it actually does a RMNET to the British government... So we are seen as downloading from the UK.. Just an idea...
It's annoying as hell....
I was going to say download speedtest.net app when you can and see what it yields... but I see you've got it figured out. Nice!

Interesting, so you're saying that google somehow classifies us as UK users, which causes problems when switching to WIFI, which is not classified as a UK connection?
It would make sense, seeing as it seems to start working again after a while.. which could mean that whatever info google is caching on us is expired and it finally adopts the WIFI connection info.
Still, I have doubts about that.. I mean wouldn't a LOT more Rogers users be complaining about this?
The only persons that would be complaining are people like us running UK roms but our WIFI is coming from a canadian provider. In my case Videotron.
So when i<m using 3g data, i'm seen as coming from the UK because of the RMNET connection and when using WIFI i'm seen as Canadian... with a uk rom.
I've read that the market DOES have regions... might not be 100% correct on that but it might be part of my issue.
Mine BTW, never works anymore even after clearing cache, FC the market, etc...
lol i got the opposite problem i have trouble downloading stuff from the market using 3g but works perfect using wifi
not really an issue since im not an app whore
Its not a issue on play all phones has that. Simply log in to your Talk app then try again. (launch Gtalk app and login)
Thanks, but i had already tried that.
Reinstalled the UK rom yesterday, and even after a clean install market still doesnt work on WIFI even tho my WIFI works for browsing, accessing my computer thru RDP, etc.

This only works for some people.
My market has been working for a day now (I didn't do anything to fix it), I'm expecting it to stop working any moment. Fingers crossed.
Edit: Aaand there we go.. stopped working again. Sigh.
Got the same issue both on my Nexus S (Videotron) and (which is strange), on My Motorola Xoom Tablet which only has wifi, no 3g !!
Edit: If I connect my tablet thru my cell phone (wifi tethering) I have no problem with market
ok so me and mobidoy are both on Videotron...
Naatan I see you are in quebec... Videotron also?
Starting to believe it migh be an issue with them
hey
im in videotron too and since 4 days i cant watch youtube on youtube app and my download on market stay stuck in green bar!! i have a toshiba thrive android 3.1!!!!!
when i connect with a 3g router or on the wi fi in my city everything work again
so it clear that videotron is the problem!!!!
Had the same problems
First time hard reset fixed it.
Second time by magic, sorry. I was about to send the phone to repairs
I used the XDA App to post this, what did you use?
I've been having the exact same problem as you and can't seem to find a way to solve this. I just purchased a Galaxy Tab 10.1, WIFI only, and at home nothing will download from the Android market. It just gets stuck. Youtube videos also dont work via the app.I tried it out at a friends and everything worked flawlessly.
At home, I also have Videotron internet. I just called them, and tried to explain to their customer service but obviously they were quick to blame it on anything else they could. They said they did not block any ports either.
I read a thread about some vodafone users in the UK having a similar problem than us:
Edit: It wont let me post an external link because I'm a new user, but the post is on androidforums.com and is titled "ANDROID MARKET download/update problem via WiFi"
It seems their problem was fixed after calling Vodafone.
I'm also inclined to point fingers at Videotron since its odd we are all customers of theirs.
Just called Videotron technical support, they have an open ticket about it since yesterday morning and are actualy working on the issue !! There is hope !!
The details:
So I recently acquired my Nexus 4 on the T-Mobile $30 plan, coming from it's brother the Optimus G on Sprint.
It is rooted and running CM11 and I have been using Spare Phone and GrooveIP for VoIP calls with no problems whatsoever. I finally decided to pull the trigger and use the Play Store app to add LTE support since my area supports it. Got that working too so I'm feeling good, but I realized shortly after that I cannot make a VoIP call over data now. WiFi still works perfectly, but on data it will ring and connect but there is no audio sent or received from either party.
I reverted back to my working backup with no luck so I did the adb/fastboot method of returning the phone to the stock image and then rerooting, reinstalling the rom and then testing VoIP over data and still no luck. I then proceeded to reinable LTE and it works again.
So in short, I tried to revert to stock modem and APN settings with no luck, but I am currently on the .98/.33 hybrid modem with the fast.t-mobile apn settings again. Also not sure if something in the *#*#INFO#*#* menu could have messed it up, but that's why I reverted to stock...
The question:
Is there any other reason all of my VoIP apps would stop working over mobile data, but still work on WiFi?

A few people including myself have been discussing this issue in the thread I linked below. We haven't really found much out, though it seems that it is T-Mobile at fault when you consider all of the variables. Here is an argument by user Ztone:
"What helped me was arguing that I know five other users who's issue started happening exactly at the same time and only on T Mobile's network. There are only 4 components to this: the phone, groove IP, Google and T Mobile. It cannot be the phone or groove IP if many others are experiencing the same thing at the same time (not to mention the fact that I had wipe the phone and reinstalled everything clean). It can't be Google because then it wouldn't work on wifi. This leaves T Mobile. My Tech troubleshooter from t-mobile had me delete the data from Google IP and restart the phone. While I had the phone off she did something on her end to refresh something on T Mobile's network regarding data coming to my phone, then after I restarted the phone. It still didn't work, then she asked me to try on wifi and then it worked perfectly. That seemed to be the tipping point, when she escalated it to engineering. Whatever that means. But I was told to give it 72 hours. Yeah, I think we need to make some noise to T Mobile."

So did you say when you re-enabled LTE the calls worked again? If so that would be a good temporary fix.

Thanks for pointing me to that thread, I'll read up shortly. This all started for me between Saturday night and Sunday morning.
Re-enabling LTE does not fix it. I actually thought that broke it at first, but since reverting to factory settings didn't fix it I figured I might as well continue to enjoy LTE even if VoIP is broken.

Yeah, unfortunately we have no solution yet. I'm in the same boat as you. I'm just glad it works over WiFi.

Tonight I'll test Spare Phone on my wife's (my old) Optimus on Sprint. I expect it will work normally and will report back to rule out the app itself since I will be using my same Google account.

Confirmed that VoIP on data works with Spare Phone and GrooveIP on other networks.
It appears that I am back in business with no change on my part...
I've noticed for a while that my phone's data is unusable any time I have a solid 3g or 1x connection. However, data works fine on 4g. Running NC4 with MJE radio, stock rooted. My wife's Note 2 works fine at the same locations, so I know it's something up with the phone or configuration.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, I tried NC2/NC4 radios, and no dice. I'll keep playing with it..perhaps I'll switch to Alliance or something and see if some ROM setting has gotten screwed up somewhere.

If you are willing to take the time you could try this. I've done it once and it fixed some residual settings left over from multiple roms.
Finally had a resolution to this issue -
After everything else not working, I took a SIM from a family member and put it in my phone. Data worked fine. So, I requested a replacement SIM from the Verizon store, and the issue is fixed. Not sure what happened with the old SIM, but it was a carryover from an older 4G phone.
It was ackward explaining to the rep what "Safe Strap" was...I mumbled something about installing a few tools to troubleshoot this issue from the Play Store.
this happened all of a sudden out of nowhere just over a week ago on my home wifi. there has been no updates to my broadband hub or anything like that
i've run out of ideas how
my once great phone is essentially a paper weight
Does the same WiFi network work on other devices? If yes, you might want to try to factory reset or if that doesn't work a fresh install via Odin!

Err weird. So the problem lies within some part of the phone that is unaffected when resetting or reflashing (odin)... No idea really, sorry. Hopefully someone else has a solution!
it even effects the samsung brower on certain pages, but not all.
it hates google apps and trying to load the google app store webpage.
and yes i have cleared cache on google apps and deleted my google account
