Hi guys,
I'm having an issue with my legend presenting a flaky mobile data connection on certain roms.
The stock 2.1 rom that shipped was working fine, however while it was running cm (all versions since 6.1) the mobile data connection would only work occasionally. If it wasn't it would just continuously light up the upload arrow on the status bar, the download arrow dead, and nothing would happen.
I recently tried ogo2's gb sense rom, and surprisingly the internet worked fine in it, especially since it runs on a cm kernel. While a brillilant rom, the heaviness of sense 3 and the battery drain from the dialer mean it can't be my rom.
I figured maybe all sense roms would be good then, so tried out blay0s 2.2 rom. However it is also turned out to show this problem.
Has anyone else encountered a similar problem? I would love to be able to go back to CM, but the not working internet drove me crazy after a while.
My APN settings are definitely correct btw. Thanks for any help!

I'm gonna see whether Other cooked Roms with 2.13 works
The Stock Rom is slow but is seems to be stable it has never freezed on me
I used to see H in cooked Roms but in the Stock I only see 3G, but it works!!

Adding custom taskbar icons to your stock rom will probably let you see the "H" icon again, mine never shows up on the stock icons, only custom ones I add.
NICE! thanks for the news flash
I have been using the update that was leaked earlier. Whereas connectivity is much better it is not all roses. My connection still drops for up to 60 seconds when switching between 3G and H. I have noticed this several times now since updating. The switching between 3G and Edge seems to be fixed though as I have not experienced that at all since updating. Half way there for me.
Why don't you use the new one?

Quickest fix in the world. Turned off google maps locations svs, rock solid 3g!
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.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
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!
Hi there
I Have recently flashed the honeyvillain 3.7 kernel to my A501 running Taboonays ROM 2.2 with great success, i had my tablet running at 1.2GHZ most of the time which was lovely, after about a week though, it would freeze entirely when using any internet connectivity, wifi and mobile data. e.g running the web browser or skype calling would result in a crash after an undefined amount of time 100% everytime. everything else on the tablet works fine, nothing else is unusual at all except this freezing during internet usage. I was wondering if anyone else had run into a similar problem and if they had would they please be able to help me find a solution?
Much appreciated guys! Thankyou!

Sure you don't just have the wifi drop out, that will do the freeze.
Easy solution would be to reformat and reload your rom. Pain in the a, I know lol. But unless you find another solution it'll be what youll have to end up doing. You could actually just try reformatting your data, not system, and that may or may not fix it. You could also try flashing another kernel.
Just throwing out ideas BTW .
Reflashing the rom and/or kernel, will have no effect. The problem will still remain.
I've been chasing this issue for some time, and as near as I can tell, the internal 3g is very sensitive to "cooked" kernels. More than likely due to voltage modifications to the board and also processor. The modifications are done to increase battery life for overclocking. It's a very fine line.
Unfortunately, it doesn't effect "all" 501's, and this may be in part due to certain revisions on the internal hardware during manufacturing. Sort of hit and miss.
However, after flashing every 501 rom and kernel combination, I have settled on this solution.
For Rom, Harkon. It's the least cooked I believe.
For kernel, you can use what comes with Harkon, or Thors 3.9r3 kernel.
But, the catch, is that you have to leave your wifi on when out and about town. Don't ask why, but after I left the setting ON, the problem went away for almost 4 weeks now. You still get 3g when a wifi connection is not available, and a small loss in battery power, but at least you shouldn't get the screen freeze, or the "sleep of death" (won't wake up and have to do a hard boot).
Hope it works for you.
Sounds like you need to reflash, i was having the same issue when watching youtube on Thors rom, I relashed and it worked just fine.
I'm hoping someone has an idea about this one as I'm pretty stumped. I'm very familiar with running custom roms on my Samsung Vibrant, and picked up a DEFY for my wife a few weeks back. The stock rom is so bloated that I wanted to put something on the DEFY to make it run well.
I've tried both the MIUI.us and MIUIAnroid versions of MIUI, and CM7 too, and have run into the same problem. Everything will be working great for a period of time, and then the 3G data will just stop. The 3G indicator will still show a solid signal, but the small arrows will stop showing any data coming/going. Emails/browser/Facebook ets (anything that needs data) will no longer work, and a reboot is the only thing to fix it.
If anyone has any ideas, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I own a s4 gt 19505, I started rooting the phone and installing root apps etc. Then I starting realising I started to get problems so I decided to revert back to stock rom. I installed the correct stock rom properly phone rebooted root free but then I started to notice my internet seemed really slow. On the internet bar it used to show 'h' before and it was really fast but now its always on 'g' and its become really slow. Its not because im in a different location because I always used to get 'h' in my house now its always 'g'. I decided to try and install the stock rom again but still same problem I noticed there was am update too. After I updated still same problem internet is just really slow! Can anyone help me its sucks to have slow internet!!!!
