I have now flashed release 5 twice and both times my 4G has stopped working. It will not come on with the drop down toggle and it will not start by using settings. The only way I can get it to work is to use switch-pro widget (I discovered that switch pro would work on accident).
I just want to clarify if I try to turn on 4g with the drop down toggle or in setting my 4g will search like it will come on but than it just turns off. So I decided to try to use switch pro widget and my 4g turned on and worked fine. I have flashed rls5 two times and did a full wipe both times, I did use TI backup to restore I'm wondering if that is causing the issue. I did check 4g with the toggle after flashing the seccond time and it did work.
So immediately after flashing rls5 4g works but something is causing it to stop any one have any ideas? I'm thnking maybe TI backup.
Delete switchpro and then try turning on 4G. It could also help to "clear data" from the switchpro application under the managing applications section.
Thanks MDizzle9, I was having similar issues (albeit completely different ROM). When I took out the SwitchPro (and wiped its settings before I did) my 4g now scans and actually stays on. Working great now!
Mahalo,

Yeah fixed it for me.
Make sure you do a full wipe before installing RLS5. I tried to just install over RLS4 and my 4G did not work. Backup, full wipe, install. Now going to give the removed data governor a try.

If anyone else is having this issue I have verified that by going into "Settings > Manage Applications > SwitchPro" and pressing "Clear Data" the issue is resolved.
Myn's RLS5 4G
My 4G will turn on and scan and even show bars but it doesn't work. It never fully loads. 3G works great. Wifi needs to be shut off and turned back on all the time to work correctly. Is anyone else having the same issues?
My 4G would not turn off unless I turned it off and rebooted two or three times.

I am using LauncherPro and my 4G radio seems to turn on by itself automatically a few times a day. Is anyone else having this issue?

Are you using a rooted phone? if so what rom and what else have you added to it. Plus, if this is the issue, uninstall and use HTC sense, if it sill does it. then maybe your hitting the button?
do you have the 4g switch on your homepage? i heard that can cause problems when launcherpro crashes and reloads your 4g will be on. something worth looking at.
If you're using the non HTC 4g widget that was floating around, one of the bugs it has is it always starts off as "ON" when you boot...
It happened to me that the GPS turned on automatically, and I didn't open maps or anything, draining my battery. So when it starts doing this funcky stuff, just reboot.
I was rooted but now I'm not so I am back to stock. I did install the custom widget that was posted on this forum but no longer have it installed as I am using the one from Switch Pro now. I uninstalled the other one.
I had the same problem after installing the new SwitchPro Widgets. I resolved it by turning off the 4g Network notification. Settings>Wireless&Networks>4g Settings>Network Notification.
But doesn't that just turn off the notification? I don't want the radio coming on when I don't need it.
Turning off the notification caused the 4g to not auto enable, for me. I can't say why, just that it worked. I never saw the auto enable issue prior to installing SwitchPro Widgets, which I think are great by the way, so I'm not bashing the product.
I will give that a shot.
Thanks.
You're not alone
Was having the same problem with SwitchPro for my rooted incredible (also not 4g but 3g). I think it had something to do with how this and maybe other apps poll/access the settings for mobile network. Uninstalled switchpro and all is better.
its too bad i love the interface of switchpro
I had the same issue. I turn off 4G notification and everything is good now.
I use Switchpro.
Thanks, I didn't know what was turning on my 4G by itself, but now I know SwitchPro is the culprit.

That doesn't work. I don't even have the notification turned on and it still does it. It's because of SwitchPro as it never turned on automatically until I installed it.

Happened to me too, but he's somewhat right.
I had 4G Network notification turned off when I installed SwitchPro, but my 4G was automatically turning on also, especially after reboots.
So here's what I did to fix it.
Turn on 4G
Turn on Network notification
Turn off Network notification
Turn off 4G
Still have SwitchPro installed and 4G toggle on my widget, but 4G hasn't turned on automatically since...

Well this turn on/off notification kinda work but only for a while...
If you do the trick, 4G won't tun on automatically anymore. But if you manually turn on 4G and then turn off and reboot your phone (actually you don't need to reboot, a flight mode is enough to show the effect), 4G will be turned on automatically again...
Again, non of the 3rd party switches figured out how exactly this 4G switch work.

This is also how i did it.
Ran into an issue with wifi on stock DK28. Wifi stopped working after two months on stock DK28. The settings>wireless and network>wifi settings menu shows "Error," and remains unchecked and grayed out, even if I try to toggle wifi on or off.
Other than the occasional reboot, the only changes I've made were to install the DialerOne app and Handcent, though I don't know how those could be related.
I did find these topics on the issue, but no solutions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=851934&highlight=wifi+error
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9630680&highlight=wifi#post9630680
Perhaps I need better search-fu, or just someone who can point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance.
Happens all of the time on all of the roms I have tried that use DK28 as a base. One of the most annoying issues I have dealt with.
I've seen people report that, but it hadn't happened to me yet. Did you ever find a workaround?
Happens to me a lot. I find it happens most when I turn WiFi off after loosing my connection (ie leaving the house and then turning it off after I go out of range). This isn't 100% though. A reboot always fixes it. Sometimes an Airplane mode fixes it too, but not always.
I am one fo the fortunate ones that has not ran into this issue.

Airplaine mode and reboots haven't fixed it for me, but a battery pull did.
Thanks for the help, everyone.
It happens to me a lot after I shut off Wifi (as mentioned above).
I just do a power off and power on to fix the problem.
This method avoids having to reboot the phone to re-enable broken WiFi after a period of time.
Temporary fix/workaround is goto > Settings > Wireless and network > Wi-Fi settings > toggle on "Wi-Fi" checkbox and wait for services to restart.
Thanks for the suggestion. I should have explained further in the OP. When the setting showed "Error" I could not toggle Wi-fi on or off, e.g. I couldn't check the box you suggest. The option remained grayed out.
I have had the same issues, although it got to the point this week that it would just not come back even when before I could just click on the greyed out error in wifi settings. Reflashed AGAIN, including the modem with ODIN just for good measure, and now I have not had any trouble at all, which is awesome. Have no clue what is causing it though!
Quick workaround is holding home button to to bring up task manager, going to "RAM" and clearing the level 2.

Might have better luck posting this in the thread for the particular ROM, get more people who use that ROM to respond.
I don't use this ROM, so I can't help you out.
When you flashed this ROM, did you wipe completely?
I had this same issue initially. I read this usually happens when your WiMAX RSA keys go missing when flashing some 3rd party ROMs, but when I checked mine they were intact (there's an app on the market to check them). When I rooted my Shift I made a backup of the WiMAX partitions so I just restored them for good measure and WiMAX started working again.

Rooted Samsung S4 MDL ROM OUDhs SWM Touch Recovery v1.0.3.5
This problem may have started about 11 days ago when for the first time my phone ran out of battery on me. (Had used the NAV a lot that day). I'm not sure if it is connected or not. I'm not sure when I first noticed WiFi was turned off. I think it was over the weekend, but who knows.
Problem: When I leave an area where I am connected to WiFi it disables WiFi and will not reconnect anywhere until I turn WiFi back on. When it detects the loss of the WiFi signal it will show the list of Access points it sees. I don't see it that often because usually it is in my pocket. I just watched it once or twice to see what happens as I drove away from work or home. It will go on to AT&T mobile data and stay on it even if I am in an area with a saved WiFi connection (such as home or work). I essentially have to remember to turn on WiFi anytime I get home or to work.
While looking for a problem I found a setting in the WiFi settings section under advanced. The setting is Check for Internet service "Auto switch between Wi-Finetworks and mobile networks" This was unchecked. Last night I checked it. I figured it may have unchecked itself or something when I ran out of battery last week. Well this didn't help. When I got to work this morning I still had to toggle on the WiFi.
Any ideas?
FYI, I am still on stock ROM. Anytime an update comes down it downloads it, if I reboot, it won't install so that is a good thing. I still have root and SU.
The autoswitch would do it. When you turned the auto switch setting back on did you do a full reboot? Sometimes that's the only way some settings will take action properly, even if it doesn't tell you too.
Sent from my SGH-I337 using XDA Premium HD app
I didn't do a full reboot after changing it last night. i did this morning however after checking which recovery I had for sure... so I guess I'll find out if that took care of it when I leave work in a few hours.
Hello i've got a peculiar issue with my edge. Wifi and 4G work at the same time and no its not the download booster because its off and on top of it its a separate icon. This shows both normal icons and ive noticed a small data increase while wifi is on. But the bigger issue is that the CPU works over time and drains the battery faster.
Any tips of what may hide the issue.
Using a stock rom or custom?
And did you make any changes recently.
I am currently using a custom Rom with custom kernel (helios) but this happened all the same while I was with stock also without any modifications
Verify in Developer Options that the "Keep Mobile Data turned on" is not turned on
Not turned on. Also i did forgot to mention, happens some times and doesn't other times. It's not wifi network dependent as it happens everywhere, and i don't see it be quality of network dependent as well.
Deleting Dalvik cache helps temporarily. After boot the mobile network behaves normally.
Just a note. Thats a recurring issue. Deleting cache is a temporary solution problem usually reoccurs within a few days
