Loss of data connection ( and buggy phone part)

Hello
i just updated my galaxy s to the leaked 2.3.3 build from a danish 2.2.1 build i tryed reflashing it since i had problems with no data connection and errors in phone part ( though it worked, just a bit buggy) the reflash and repartion that i choose to do since i had voodoo kennel on my phone before did not help either, so now my phone cant use data connection
anyone have any suggestions? maybe it is a common error? i tryed googling and looking a bit but did not see anything.
I really appreciate the help, another thing i would love would be a 2.3.3 build with danish keyboard/speech in it.

Are you saying that you flashed to a phone that was lagfixed .
If so its broke your phone Undo lagfix before flash is rule one .
You will need to flash stock rom using Odin to get a working phone .
jje

Okay but i flashed the version that was out in the forum with Odin, what Rom should i flash to get back to a state where i can flash 2.3.3 with Odin again? and will i need to re partion, i kinda thought that would take care of the laggfix?

I'm not sure what your problem is. Just take the files from the JVK Rom (PDA, Modem, CSC) add a pit file (512.pit or what you want) and select repartition and click start. Don't need to disable lagfix if you do it that way.

Hmm okay the thing is i already did exactly that and still no data connection :S

Maybe i need to flash a kennel without laggfix?

I have now flashed samsung stock kennel for 3.3.3 , i have reflashed 2.2.1 the version i get from my kies in Denmark and everything works in 2.2.1, now i tryed reflashing 2.3.3 and i still got the same problem as before any help would be much appreciated

Sounds like you need to put in your telco specific APN to get data working.

okay sounds like something that might work, where can i find this apn?

where do i find this file?

It's not a file, it's the name/details of a server on your provider's network. If you didn't back up your original firmware, you'll probably have to call your network or check their website.
Word to the wise - reposting the same question after 7 minutes won't win you too many friends
Danish 2.3.3 keyboard - best to wait until the Nordic firmware is released/leaked.

Thanks the VPN from my network provider solved it!
btw i did not repost any question it was not the same question and i only posted course i was still in doubt.
again thank you all, properly never would have throught of VPN Settings by myself

No problem, glad you sorted it out.

[Q] Help rooting Galaxy S I9000 - 2.3.3 XWJVH

I am having a few problems with rooting my Galaxy S.
I have looked for hours at different threads about different root methods and different kernels but I am not sure which root method and kernel to use.
I am running Gingerbread 2.3.3 XVJVH. Can somebody give me some advice and provide me with a link to rooting instructions with your preferred method please?
Thanks
RobWill116

Hy!
I'm using already rooted kernel's like SpeedMod.You can try with this---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044519(but this is for 2.3.4 but should work on 2.3.3)

I have tried all root versions with JVP, almost to the point to brick the phone and I came to the following conclusion why do all the kernels remove the bootanimation sound????
I reinstalled the original stock JVH because JVP has a huge battery drain not explicitely on the usage settings but with the same usage of applications on a daily routine the phone wouldn't last 14 hours. With JPY and now JVH, the battery last almost 48 hours.
I just want to have root to install the daily briefing from JVP and to calibrate the GPS but there is no rooting method nor kernel which stick to stock rom implementing only root, busybox and su and the rest to remain untouched....either the bootanimation sound is removed or you get extra tweaks when you are not using it...so anynone for a minimalist rooting?

Try fuguroot.

Tried it. it removes the boot animation sound, so all the other root method...

You could try with one-click root but i'm not sure that will work on 2.3.3
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

it doesn't work either...see my desperation?

Flash speedmod kernel
Apply root from recovery
Flash stock kernel
Or flash ramad's deodexed jph with's pre rooted
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

just put the boot sound back yourself!

Thanks for all the replies! I think I'm going to give fuguroot a go sounds the easiest haha
Just wanted to check firstly, is there.no root with JVH? Just the fact a lot of people have said it has the best battery life

Hmm I'm using Chainfires CF-Root. It works perfectly with jvh. Although you need to use odin to flash the kernel. But I don't think it's a problem for you if you know how to flash stock rom.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App

Thanks I might give that a go as well. I new to SGS flashing, had X10 but O2 couldn't fix it and didn't have anymore in stock so gave me SGS instead! I'm sure I'll find some instructions anyway - unless you want me help me out further and post a link

With pleasure.

Note! You really should be sure that you are on JVH and please read the thread I linked to you carefully. In cause you would brick your phone. I bricked my phone a couple of times already by doing something else stupidly. However here in Finland Samsung is kind enough to fix it for me always. Even I explained that I bricked it by flashing some other roms myself
Again If you are indeed on JVH. then:
1st. head to this thread by ChainFire himself.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108&highlight=CF-ROOT
2nd. search for "CF-Root-XW_NEE_JVH-v3.2-CWM3RFS.zip" to download.
3rd. Unzip the file.
4th. open odin and load this file as PDA.
5th. put your phone into download mode and then connect to your computer.
6th. flash and done.
One thing you might want to know. ChainFire Root removed the booting sound as well. But it keeps the original boot animation.

Help with RandomROM Thunderhawk 3.3

Okay folks, if somebody could bring my issue to the attention of anybody who knows what to do about it I would appreciate it.
My issue is twofold:
1)I'm still getting random reboots with RandomROM Thunderhawk 3.3 despite the posting on the thread that says (NO MORE REBOOTS) Is there anything that can be done about this?
2)I checked my baseband version and the modem is still EC05, is there a way to flash or ODIN an EI22 modem for this ROM without getting a black screen when the icons should come up? Could this also be what's causing the reboots?
Thanks for anybody's help that is willing to give it.

Are you using a custom theme? And you have to flash the stickied modem delta. If you are using a theme, I would blame that.
Sent from my ICS NookColor using Tapatalk

I was using thunderhawk too and I had some reboots but onlyyyyy on the lockmod version. When I flashed the regular one I had no problems at all
And for basband I would probably try this
Nandroid backup
Flash "ec05 to ei22" its somewhere in the development section I believe
Reboot
If that doesn't work then a fresh new start is what I would Recommend
Odin back to stock
Root
Install cwm
Flash "eco5 to ei22" modem
Flash thunderhawk 3.3 (without lockmod if you could live without it)
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

I got the EI22 modem here and flashed it in CWM and it worked well. Only problem I had with thunderhawk is the lockscreen mod, and I'm having data issues on wifi after the phone's been on a while.

I was ec05 but when I flashed the Thunderhawk and it changed to ei22. never had a problem. Got a wild hair up my butt to flash the shadow kernal 1.0.6. Never been happier. no reboots, wifi works perfect, and very responsive. running a live wall paper and still get awesome battery life. give it a try

I saw several posts from folks having some wifi-4g interaction problems...switching back and forth causing one or the other to fail...is that a common problem to all 3.3 users, or are most people not seeing it? I want to give this a try, but I use 4g (at work) and wifi (home) everyday, so I'd like to see how common that issue is. I'm currently on Mostly-stock with Nubernel's latest released kernel...
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

So...bummer. I guess I answered my own question...I installed Thunderhead 3.4.3 and sure enough... I have wifi and 4g problems. Seems like going back and forth between the two causes issues...had it fail going both ways today. On a positive...man, that ROM seems pretty nice and his new install process rocks...was seamless going from Mostly Stock...
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

You could always try a clean install with doing a factory data reset in CWM and wiping Dalvik, flash ROM, check to see if stuff works, then do an advanced data restore from your last nandroid. If you stll have problems then the best bet is to set everything up fresh after the clean install.

The deal with the wifi/4g issue is that 4g will show 0.0.0.0 for ip, baseband, and dns if used after wifi in most cases. This is on official releases of 3.3 and newer. If you turn off wifi, reboot, then turn on 4g it should work. This is oviously annoying. Random provided me with alpha builds of 3.4 and 4.0, and the issue was squashed for me. However, the issue still persists in 3.4.3 official release according to some reports. I have limited access to 4g and can only test on certain days.
Thunderhawk is in a transitional period right now, and 3.4.5 should be released today. Random is hopeful this might solve some issues, including the dialer issues some are reporting with the 3.4 official builds. After that his focus will be on 4.0, which is EL30 based. Consider anything from 3.4 on a beta, and only run it if you want to help find bugs. Obviously you don't mind reporting or I wouldn't be replying lol. Just follow the threads and wait untill it looks stable enough for your usage needs.

Thanks! I certainly wasn't busting on Random's work...and I know he has limited access to 4g for testing, so that makes it harder for him to verify these things. So
I absolutely saw what you describe going from wifi to 4g. Going from
4g to wifi, I had wifi that wouldn't turn on at all (error when trying to enable), and, like you and others have mentioned, a reboot resolved both cases. I will hang out and see if he pushes out a fix soon, and just eagerly await 4.0. If it gets too annoying, I'll restore to my
Mostly Stock... Hmmm... Is there an issue restoring an rfs backup if I am now on ext4? Heh...
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Just installed the latest 3.4 revision...I think...Heh. The update was so fast its hard to tell!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

And...confirming...the wifi/4g issue persists. 4g ip address is messed up on the first connect after being on wifi...reboot resolves.

I hope someone can tell me what is going ON !

No really. I do have the same problem. I've tried installing different roms, different methods but still the same problem. I think its a problem with the WiFi driver Samsung has created for ICS/JB

i did install XXLQ2 but wifi still not working !!!

yes same here but you will be lucky if u can reconnect sometimes u have to reboot to make it work again !
Still no solution , hope someone finds a way to fix this

I have the same problem after installing with PC ODIN.
I flashed back to HC and back to ICS Hong Kong version and it's still resetting Wifi every 10 secs.
I've now installed Wifi Fixer from Play Store and it is resets it faster and holds the connection longer.
Although it still persists Wifi Fixer seems to improve it to the point where it's bare able.

Get Wi-Fi fixer from Play store. I did, and it works magic!
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app

Update;
Well, Wifi Fixer only seemed to work for a few routers.
The one at home worked well but my router at work just wouldn't hold the connection.
I was about to give up and go back to HC.
I thought I'd give the new Austrian build a chance LQ2.
Since changing I noticed better Wifi signal for starters and no drop off like the Hong Kong version.
They Wifi seems fixed on the LQ2 build, it's working very well so far.

[Q] [NOT FIXED- GS4 Lots of issues with radio signal and calls!!!! PLEASE HELP ME!

Hi guys, first of all let me share al my specs in order to place my question properly:
PHONE MODEL: Galaxy S4 SGH-I337M (the original stock kernel was: Build Date: 30.05.2013 -> Region: TCE (Mexico) PDA: I337MUMUAMDL Changelist: 518267 Android: 4.2.2)
Actual Rom: CyanogenMod -version: 10.2 10.2-20130923-nightly -jftlecan
Compilation number: cm_jfltecan-userdebug 4.3 JLS36G eng.jenkins.20130923.022829 test-keys
Recovery Mode: CWM via Rom Manager Pro app
So saying that I will say this: I came from stock to CM wiping Factory Reset and data/cache only and I used Odin for rootint the device....no problems at all, runs like a charm...
MY ISSUE #1: A couple of auto-updates ago (via Rom Manager), I start to notice that the radio bars (telephony signal, mobile internet signal bars) were from 1 to 2 bars in places I always get full bars (I live on a 7th floor with excelent signal at Mexico City). I searched on the forums (XDA developers and here) and it seems that ROOTED DEVICES SHOW THE REAL SIGNAL PROVIDED BY THE CAREER---->can someone confirm this? Is my phone showing the real signal strenght?, eventhough, keep reading to see that low signal bars are only the beginning...
So as i said, I didnt worry pretty much, because if the bars are little low, but i have a good quality service, who cares? but the REAL PROBLEM appears when another update came and when Im trying to use my mobile internet (4g or 3G, doesnt matter) the signal cuts exactly at the moment of loading a page or any info....it as happened with almost all apps (specially Facebook, Waze and Google Maps)
It happens as follows:
1.- Open any app, like Dolphin browser or Firefox
2.- Page starts to load info (LTE showing download and upload state)
3.- LTE-3G or whatever, shuts down (I see only the telephony signal bars and there is no internet signal)
4.- Wait few seconds, LTE-3G whatever is back...have to try again and agin until LTE remains steady (sometimes it wont until I reboot)
ISUE #2- DURING CALLS:
- Sometimes people cant hear me, but I can hear them...restart the phone and the issue fixes it self...buts is very annoying to restart my phone every single time somebody calls me and they cant hear me
I dont know what to do guys? Shall I wait until final CM10.2 comes to light? Somebody has this bug also? Is this bug part of CM? or there is another app making this rare behaivour...(do you recommend me another ROM for this model of GS4??)
EDIT: I tried to flash the original modem.bin (via ODIN) which is used by my carreer (TELCEL, son of Slim AKA "The richest man on Babylon :silly: is the company´s name). So until now, I can tell that in my first attempts of opening pages or facebook, the randomly LTE turning off-on continues...I will keep testing with this "orginal" flashed modem....

It's defiinitely a modem issue. You can flash new modems and try. (backup efs before doing so, actually if you dont already have one - do it before now and save yourself some grief)
If that's not fixing the issues...
I'd backup what you need and start fresh. It would be the easiest way to resolve all your issues. Maybe even try a different kernel set for your region and phone.
Kies has a useful firmware recovery option that sets you back to stock.
The Kies will use your model number and serial to get you your stock firmware and reset you back. Id wipe all data under settings then do it. After its done, do another factory reset in recovery.

Thanks for that advice, i guess Im going to do all that if a new kernel doesnt fix the issue (I havent found any kernel for my region which supports Android 4.3, only 4.2.2, and someone told me is not correct to install such a kernel). Good day to you!

So after done all the "back to stock" steps, I still get this questions:
1.- Would I still be ROOT but with stock firmware (Touchwiz) and cool features originally made for Samsung GS4? (such as air gestures, etc etc)
2.- If im "unrooted" by the steps described in your link, can I upgrade to 4.3???
Thanks you are so kind!

Check out GoldenEye ROM or MDOB ROM in the development forum. They are extremely stable, super fast, tw and excellent battery life. CM is awesome, but is seriously way to flawed for our S4's right now to use for day to day life.

Thanks. I successfully installed stock Rom (Touch Wiz) and the signal has been impecable (full vars and excellent internet speed). I have to say that stock Rom is faster than CM in its current state I'm having a better experience right now ( and didn't had the time to explore all the Samsung apps in their depth) thanks again for your kind help!!!

Well I just went back to original stock firm ware via Kies, and now the radio signal issues are gone!! CM 10.2 didn't work well for me as the stock rom is now working in my phone. Something tells me that some times it's better to just rooting (for enjoying cool apps as Greenify) and not installing custom Roms (because all this kernel carnival is just to much, and appart of all we have to install radio firmware? Just no!)
