Lose 3G and have to reboot - Vibrant General

Anyone ever have this problem? Ideas to fix it?

What rom are you running? If its a i9k 2.2.1 build you need the signal reboot fix found in the vibrant development section.

I think the problem exists for KB1 based builds as well. Had the issue with Bionix 1.31, Trigger and Axura. Went back to Nero v5 and problem solved. Also, the wifi sleeps even when the option for never sleep is checked. I wonder if it's hardware specific and only affects some phones.

To clarify my previous post: I lost 3g and had to manually reboot to get it back. It didn't reboot on its own like the i9000 builds. I ran 3 different roms from 3 different devs and they all had similar issues. The only common denominator was they were KB1 based. KB1 roms also seem to have RIL issues (very infrequent). At least that was my experience.

Data dropping happened to me a lot in the JK2 modem (had toggle flight mode on and off), but it has never happened to me since (JK6 and onwards)

Are you guys on t mobile? You might want to upgrade your sim card, i just upgraded yesterday and now my connection is more stable.

If data is just dropping and not soft booting, try flashing a new modem.

This can be a very good idea. I did that, and now my data is PERFECT.

I dont have this problem but do all the ROMS now say "H" instead of 3G? The weird things is, I still 3g pop back up there intermitently for a second or two here and there...from what I gather, H is the same thing, but if that's so, then why do I still see 3g pop back up there sometimes?

I'm on KB1 and I hate this ****.

I had this problem on Trigger 2.7.1/overstock couldn't reestablish data through airplane or toggling data type. In since flashing 2.7.2 havent had it at all. Fingers crossed. No reboots either. Same kb1 modem.
Don't blame me, blame my keyboard's autocorrection algorithm.

Im going through something similar right now. Running Axura 2.3.1.0 with KB1 modem currently, was on CM7 with KA7 prior and had same issue. I have 0 3G, doing a speed test on 2G i get between 68 and 85kbps download speed, and when on 3G i get between 46 and 60kbps, so actually my 3G is basically dead. Went and got a 3G sim card from t-mobile, called them about 26 times and had them reset my network, filed a trouble ticket and still no dice... not sure whats going on. I was throttled and my cycle restarted on the 21st, its now the 24th and still seems like im throttled but im not, its actually a dead 3G, not sure why... anyone know what i can do to fix this? Is it a bad phone now? T-Mobile doesnt seem to have a clue, nor will they help me out... dunno, tried everything and now im just stuck with no speed... blows!!!

[Q] Data Network Mode on Froyo: Safe to turn off?

I have experienced that with such apps that disable data (i.e. quick settings), they potentially ruin your CDMA data speeds. I had to re-odin my Epic to get data back to normal. Well now that we have froyo beta's out there, I noticed the option to disable data network mode. Is it safe to do so without ruining your data?
I've used that option on this new Froyo about a million times without issue. I don't think it would hurt our phones since it's baked in by Samsung and not our devs here. If you have issues with it I'd be interested to hear about them but I say try it out because I've have zero problems. I'll do another speedtest tomorrow when I'm home in Minneapolis. I'm currently at my parent's and 3g is spotty and slow here.
Ah. Ok will do. I forgot this was a leak from samsung's Hq
My CDMA data speed has been destroyed and I've been trying to figure out why. I haven't been around wifi for a couple days and haven't been able to download a new rom to flash to try it. Any fixes other than odin?

According to speedtest.net app, 13 kb/s. That's absolutely pathetic. I've seen faster dial up. I ran the test 3 times to be sure and I have 5 bars of reception. With wifi on it's 4+ mb/s.
Edit: flashed a new rom to see if that would fix it, and no luck. Looks like it's time for odin once I get access to a computer.

i use froyos 3g toggle all the time and i havent noticed a major difference. but i live up in the middle of nowhere in new hampshire and i'm experiencing faster 3G speeds and i only have 1 bar as of right now. just ran a speed test and got 102.4 kB/s. i would definitely say there's something wrong in your case, i just don't think it's the data toggle based on my own experience. However, I could be wrong.

Bionix 1.3.1 keeps using edge instead of 3g or h.

For some reason over the last couple of days my phone has been stickjng on edge service, and once in a while hopping back on 3g/h. I think i read in a few places bionix 1.2 had this problem, but this is the first time im experiencing a problem, and ive had the rom since the first day it was out....
Any advice? Thanks!

If you are using the KB1 modem try flashing the KA6 or KA7Modem, this might resolve the problem. There is a thread with all the modems in the Vibrant forum.
here is the thread;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=868774
and like oka1 said try KA6 or 7.
You wanna know what's weird? This morning I rebooted and mine will only connect if I manually set Network Mode to "GSM only". If I try to use GSM/WCDMA (auto mode) I don't even connect to the network. It's very strange. Running the KA7 modem. Hrmmmm
Since I've installed 1.3.1 I have never seen 3G. I get the H and E but never any 3G.

[Q] Poor Network Connection

I am using Syndicate Rom Frozen 1.1.0 and have been loving how fast it is. The only issue I have discovered is that the indicator at the top is showing 0 or 1 bar for 3g network. Therefor I have been missing about 75% of calls, and dropping more. I came from factory DI18 Eclair. I had to flash the rom twice to get it to work. Still no 3g service. (fyi...flashed yesterday)
Your phone probably doesn't like the EC05 modem. Flash the EB13 modem.

ya that sounds similar to the last few days, i definitely think sprint is doing something..
I am near Portland, OR. I was on EC05 and things were working fine. I flashed back to factory DI18 and then to SRF. Things didn't get slow until SRF. Should I reflash the EC05 modem, or just try EB13? I too am roaming where I normally have full service.

Has anyone ever had this data problem?

Alright this is just stupid. So I wake up this morning using facebook and browsing xda over 3g. I pop up power menu and turn off data, and leave phone for 30mins. I come back, turn on 3g and nothing. I've went to network settingsand fiddled with all the options there; 4G, txting, calling, and wifi work. I also had the "error: 67."
Only things I've tried is cwm wipin and flashing. I currently am away from home so can't just odin =/

Maybe try switching modems? Sfr doesn't include a kernel so try changing to a different kernel also, some of the newer kernels and roms have the modem flash in the install.
Also j would call sprint and ask if there has been any changes to ur data or hotspots plan, they should be of some help in that end. I'm kinda curious as to how that would happen tho.

This happened to my wife's phone went into see what modem I put in and it was gone there as nothing but characters re flashed modem all set.
I get this all the damn time. Especially around my area. What works for me is re-entering the MSL & resetting it to default. It reactivates the device & you'll get your data back!
When I called Sprint about this, they told me that it was because the phone "jumped" to a different tower that wasn't so close. Hope that helps!

Your bill is paid, right? I thought I had a problem like that one time but turns out my payment wasn't taken out when it should have.
But since you're getting an error it has to be something else.
I believe error 67 refers to wrong vision username/password. Have you tried something simple such as Update Profile? Worse comes to worst you can always do an rtn reset...
edit: CWM doesnt write to those areas... Neither does Odin.

Random loss of reception?

Anyone experiencing this? Sometimes ill be on the internet for an hour then randomly my signal will drop and after a minute or so it will come back. Also if I haven't used my phone for awhile and right when I'm about to Google something the internet cuts off then comes back a minute later.
Im trying to figure out if its my phone or T-Mobile fault. Its not roms or radios because Ive tried a few different ones.

The op may not have answered his own question. I have similar issues with my phone. Found a few little glitches with how my phone reacts to firmware. I need to write up my findings in a new thread. Pretty interesting stuff. I had a big issue that I was able to fix and it may work for a bunch more people too.

I domt think so, i have noticed, with stock, i get a strong 4g signal. BUt when i switch to different roms, the signal fluctuates.
I have tried: Darkside, creamed glacier, cm7, virtuous unity affinity quattro
Dclaw please share your findings!
Btw my gf also has a mytouch 4g but its stock unrooted and has the same problems as me.

Happens to me quite often. I'm running the latest radio and I think that's the problem for me. It never happened with the previous radio it had. Reason I haven't messed with it is because it works great in the city and I'm always on wifi at home. It bugs me because I send a text and signal drops to 0, "message not sent, will resend when data services are available." back to 3 bars, then resends.

I have the Panache here in Canada through Mobilicity, basically the same phone with a different name, and this is a known issue with the entire batch they sold. I'm pretty sure it's a phone issue on HTC's part that doesn't seem to have a fix for it. I can't remember what the reason was exactly but google Panache no signal or something like that and you should be able to find it.

Hi erverybody,
"dclaw_fantum" said he found a suggestions for that, but what is it? I am with Mobilicity (Canada) too and I have the same issue with my phone (also the panache). My friend is also with mobilicity but has a different phone and not any problem like this. It is strange because I am having full reception and it just turns of... totally. At least there should be a GSM signal or WCDMA signal, but it just turns off. Sad that HTC is not trying to fix this, as it seems an issue for a lot of people. Greetings.
It has to do with your Rom that your using or Radio either or can be your problem.

MyTouch 4G with Wind here. Same issue.
Tried 3 different radios and 2 stock and one custom rom and I have the same problems.
I've been leaning towards the problem being a combination of the radio and the rom and how they interact with each other rather than just one of them as it doesn't seem to make any difference what combination of the two you use.
I'm not a developer though, so I might be way off...
