[Q] AT&T HD2 Android Data problems

Hey XDA maybe you can help me out.. I;ve searched the forums and cannot find a solution to what is happening to my phone. I have a SIM unlocked HD2 and in the WM rom im using (Chucky) the EDGE data works just fine all of the time. However, the minute I boot into Android, and I've tried multiple roms, the EGDE data will work then stop. No matter what combination of turning off and on the data, changing the monile network settings, WIFI will turn back on the data connection. Ive tried booting into Android with and without radios on in WM and basically everything I can think of. Ive changed APN settings as well.
I really dont know what is causing this. and im currently using radio 2.12.50.02. If anyone can help me out it would be much appreciated. Any questions i will answer.

What android build are you booting into? What Kernel? Have you explored your build's thread to see if others experienced similar data drops?
I have a euro hd2 on att edge and I don't have any issues with the setup in my signature.

I'm currently booting into Hyperdroid V1.6 with a kernal version 2.6.32.9-r11_n38158-g184606d-dirty [email protected] #159. Ive looked at nearly all the pages and placed searches as well but can't seem to find anything. I have a feeling it has to do with the fact that im using AT&T but WM EDGE works just fine. I should mention WIFI works fine in Android but on the power coltrol widget on my home screen the Data button (with the arrows pointing up and down) is red even when turned off. I'll try your set up later tonight, thanks for the response.
EDIT: I tried your set up and it was the same case. Sometimes I'll boot up and EDGE will work for a while then stut off randomly and other times it wont work at all after boot up.

Have you tried rmnet vs ppp? Others have had success using rmnet when having data issues.

Sorry for the late reply. I have tried both and it doesnt change anything. What I have found is that my data will work for anywhere from 5-60 minutes then stop working all together until the next reboot. I have no idea what is causing this or what I can do to fix this.

many others are experiencing data disconnections depending on kernel and build. I don't think this issue has anything to do with at&t. Keep trying kernels and builds.

Just an FYI, having the same issue with the following setup:
Copes CM7 (Android 2.3.2)
Baseband 15.36.50.07U_2.09.50.29_2
Kernel 2.6.32.15r8
Build: GRH78C

Fixed
You just need to look for a ROM and kernel that works. NAND are the best for battery life by far. Just keep looking you'll find one

Have you tried entering into the phone's advanced settings?
Using the dialer input: *#*#4636#*#* then go to the radio option and select GSM only. Then reboot the phone (not necessary, but let's just do it for good measure, it'll only take a minute) and report back!

wondering if u have found a solution to this yet...

I know that I'm digging up an old thread but, has anyone found a working solution to this? I'm on EDGE and it is painfully slow when I'm trying to do anything on the phone even though my phone shows full signal. Also, the signal will drop out every once in a while and I have to turn airplane mode on and off to get it back. I'm think that I have the correct APN settings. Currently I'm using Rafdroid 4.2 with his 2.0OC kernal.
Thanks!

3g / Mobile Web Not Working

Hi guys - hoping someone can help me!
I've found the perfect droid build for my tastes and battery consumption, but the problem is, my mobile web isn't working! The 'G' or 'H' icon appears, with the 2 arrows, and the left hand side one flickers on/off every so often, but I don't get a connection.
Now, I freely admit that I'm not very good with stuff like this, so I wonder if anyone can suggest some things to try and get my 3g up and running? I pay for unlimited data on my contract, so I really could do with it!
Is it worth swapping radio, or don't you think that will be causing it?
MDJ FroYo Streak Lite v1.1
Using kernel that comes with this build
Radio 2.12.50.02_2
Winmo ROM is Chuckydroid
Cheers guys

Bump.
It's not the APN settings as I've re-entered them. Any suggestions?

Sounds like the ROM, that specific ROM has had data issues. He's got a newer version, I'd download that and try it out, or back-up your ROM and plug-in a new kernel and see what happens.

Thanks man. I guess I'll try a different build - gutted though, as I love everything else about this one!
My phone has also taken to randomly restarting itself, or just switching itself off too. That's very annoying. It's done that on the last few rom's I've used. I might just go back to WinMo soon if it keeps doing it - it's pissing me the hell off, as for some reason, texts sent when my phone is off, don't come through when it comes back on.

well no recent ROMs i've used have had any of these issues. Check out my set-up in my sig. Maybe flash NRG and 2.15.50 and see if you still have these issues.

I need help!!! please help me!

Alright im not going to lie to you, i dont know much about the adroid build but i managed to figure out a way to install adroid on my phone
HTC DESIRE
mod version: darkstone HD2 Froyo V3
Build number: DeFrost HD2(A0SP FRG83+CyanogenMod)
Okay so everytime im on my phone, i always lose internet connection when im on 3G, like it spans for about 10-15 minutes and then it will disconnect me. Then i have to turn on airplane mode and then turn it off and it will enable my 3G again, if i turn on the 2G network, i can use the internet for alot long but it still manages to disconnet me along my 3G. So now im mind boggled of why it constantly does this for no reason.
I tryed updating my radio but when i tryed putting the different radio on my phone, my htc screen would just stay at the 0% and it wouldnt upload onto my htc. So i had to take out my battery and start from square 1 again. Also does anyone know why my battery life is so terrible?, i fully charge it and it only lasts for about 6-7 hours at most. It frustrating because i absolutely love the adroid vs my windows 6.5 OS. So if anyone of you can please help me with this problem.
Do i need to install a new build? or tell me how to correctly update my radio, something, are my apn settings wrong? like i just dont know. So if anyone can help me, it will be greatly appreciated, thank you

[Q] Im new and need help

Ok i've had my hd2 for a while.I wanted to sell it because it was boring and i didnt find any cool apps from windows market.So i found out i can put android on it,so i did and put Android 2.2 Froyo on my HD2.And now its a lot better.But now it drains the battery pretty quick, i dont really mind that.Today it ran out of battery and i started to charge it and tried turning it on,it would turn on but stay at the T-mobile screen and not load.So disconnected the charger i took out battery and rebooted it multiple times then i searched on google.And i took out the sim and sd.And now it turned on.But now im wondering if it will happen again if i continue using the Android on my storage card.And can anyone teach me more about this what i should know about things i can do to make my phone better,im new i dont know anything,i just saw a topic about flashing an hd2 ,i dont even know what that is.I would also want to know of what could possibly happen if i keep runing Android.I also want to know more about different Roms(i think thats what their called,idk im new to this) that are better and safer then the Android im using now.

heating issues.

Hello. Am on pdateam wp7 7740 rom. I have realized that anytime I access the internet or do anything concerning internet connection the bottom part of my hd2 becomes very warm everytime. It sometimes makes it unable for charging. I want to know whether anyone is also experiencing this problem. And also how I can solve it. Thanks very much....

i to have had this problem. i did NOT have it with ANY rom prior to mango releases. i asked over a week ago if this problem had been addressed and/or fixed in recent releases and have not had any reply. after reading this i suppose the answer is no. as i said, i didn't have this problem with any pre-mango roms.
after i installed yuki & xbmod's 7720 zune updatable anytime i would stream say netflix or youtube for more than 10 minutes i would get the dreaded orange/green flashing led (read up real fast and found out it is an OVERHEAT notification)
one thing that i found is a slightly damp or very cold cloth on the back in the VERY hot area for just a few minutes will cool your leo down enough to start to charge again (leave the cold cloth on as long as you plan on charging after you get the overheat notification). i just love my baby to much to run the risk of burning it up so i went to android.
i REALLY miss WP7 but unless this is corrected or someone can tell me for sure i'll stick with android.
(if anyone knows if this has been resolved or knows a better workaround i'd really appreciate it as i detest the whole lengthy process of going between android to WP7)
cheers

whoops, didnt mean to thank you, ah well, have one on me
anyhow, the only time i get that heat issue is if i go crazy with wifi, day to day its fine, but if i start transfering 100s of MB of data it gets toasty!

Some one shld please help solve this problem.

have you tried messing about with different radios?
the reason some networks use different versions is because the settings suite some areas better than others.
Start with hardware radios as thats easy to change, then move to software radio starting with oldest, mango roms did have a newer software radiuo built in so that might be answer for you

I haven't had this issue since the first wave of roms released pre mango in January. Ever since mango this problem has been cleared up. I'm on BTTF rom 7740. Back on pre mango roms it would get so hot I could barely hold it. But now on Yuki & Xboxmods rom it NEVER heats up. Just my experience.

would you mind sharing what setup your running? because ive had quite the opposite experience ... pre-mango = no issues! mango (BTTF) = the above mentioned issue ...

ok thanks.and by the way,what's a software and hardware radio?..and can u please give me a list of compatible mango radios...

well, hardware radio is what you used to flash when dealing with WM6.5, you can find all the radios in the HD2 wiki or 6.5 development forum, that is easy to flash as all you have to do is stick it in tricolour bootloader, and flash via your pc using the customRUU, typically these are named
2.12.50.02
2.14.50.04
2.15.50.14
there are a lot more than that, different areas will like different radios, trial and error is usually the only way to go, for example, you may lose the heat issue but lose signal as well, or perhaps your battery life will improve or drop like a rock
The software radio is something windows phone brought to us, as far as i can tell the only way to change that is via flashing WP7 again, you essentially swap out the part00.bin from the install folder and replace it with a different radio version
a quick search on the windows phone 7 HD2 stickys should find what your are looking for
but these radios are typically called
5.52.09.16
5.51T.09.29a
5.65.09.11a
again, there are a lot more than those ive lists, i think there are about 11 in total.
