[q] flashed to stock - no data connection

i was on GOLDENEYE ROM for a couple of days in vegas came back and wanted to flash back to stock because of some small issues.
did a flash back to MDL and it flashed fine data worked and everything yesterday i found it weird that none of my user files were deleted as if it flashed over the custom rom. had to re root did that easily.
last night i got home and decided i wanted to flash all the way back to stock, did that and next thing i know, no connection to apn at all.
no web cant text, nothing.
im on MDL now i have tried flashing to MDB and MDL (AT&T btw) no data on any of these roms. any help please ?
i have no idea what to do
i thought about removing the triangle and going to at&t and requesting a new phone would that work if nothing else?
help pleaaaaaase
thank you !

Did you check your apn? Sounds like that's your problem.

L720T Not Getting LTE Anymore After Flash

Hi so I have the L720T on the Spark network. I managed to root and get CWM Recovery working. I was running and NAND backup when my phone suddenly crashed not sure if it died I'm thinking thats what it was I remember my battery being low. After throwing it on the charger for a while it booted up but the connection was dropping in and out like crazy and never got LTE. Ive tried flashing a few S4 ROMs not for the L720T and flashing the L720T TAR with Odin and nothing seems to get the network back to how it was. I definitely had full LTE before all this and a great connection. Not really sure what else to try I'm hoping someone else with an L720T can help me out here. Thanks a lot. @bthorne79

i have flashed two different roms and the hotspot worked great i flashed an official VANIR rom and a another unofficial AOSP ROM,calls didnt kill my hotspot,, but thd cameras didn't work in either rom,, so i flashed back to rooted stock,,really don't want a custom rom,, Samsung has a lot of good features that you will lose with a custom rom,,, is anyone else having this problem?

Please note that using the hotspot on 3G WILL stop when you receive/send a call. If you're on LTE, you should be able to use the hotspot and call people. This is NOT ROM specific.

[GUIDE] Install CloudyG2 3.3 on VS980

First of all I'd like to thank the following forum members for their contributions:
@Zackptg5 and @megaghostgamer for their basic steps
@xdabbeb for his bootstack
Major thanks to @Cloudyfa for his amazing ports!
I've compiled their steps into a very user friendly guide with all downloads in one place.
I recommend TWRP for the procedure. Any version 2.7.0.0 or above should do.
First of all, you need these files:
Dorimanx 3.9.2 kernel vs980 (Make sure you download the kernel for the VS980)
Aroma Patch Fix
CloudyG2 3.3
xdabbeb's vs980 39a bootstack
Then, follow the steps carefully. I am not responsible if this didn't work for you as it did for me.
Backing up is recommended, nandroid or data backups.
Boot your phone into TWRP. (Recommended method is going to recovery after turning off the device)
Wipe everything except internal storage.
Flash Xdabebbeb's VS980 39A bootstack.
Reboot the device into recovery (there should be an option for this in the reboot section of TWRP).
Flash CloudyG2 3.3 and make sure you select your variant as VS980. Make sure you uncheck the reboot option at the end of the installation.
Flash the Aroma Patch Fix zip, and select your variant as VS980. Make sure you uncheck the reboot option at the end of the installation.
Flash the VS980 39A bootstack once more.
Flash the Dorimanx 3.9.2 kernel zip.
Wipe cache/dalvik cache.
Reboot the device to system.
Notes:
First boot usually takes awhile. The pulsing LED will show up for a long time with the LG Logo.
Mobile Data does not work unless you enable data roaming.
Please hit that thanks button if this guide helped any of you! Any questions, just post down below.

I have followed everything as it has been mentioned in the guide.
When i rebooted the system in the end, LG logo appeared for a second and then black screen with [880] Fastboot mode started.
now what should i do ? its just stuck here.

You flashed the kernel for the wrong variant. Flash the one for the vs980, its towards to bottom of the download page. You can still boot into recovery by following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2534981

oh yes.. my bad.. the kernel was mistakenly downloaded from LS980 instead of VS980. again followed the process and it is starting up.
lets hope reception problem is fixed.

Easy mistake to make (I did that too once). It'll say you're roaming, but that's just a weird bug. Go into networks setting and enable data while roaming and it'll work fine. You're not actually roaming so you won't get charged for it.

Oh well. Added an extra precaution next to the download link.

Flash xdabbebs rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2715408
It is stock with some tweaks, g3 ported apps and such. If you still have these issues, it's likely a hardware issue

You mean I should not use cloudyG2 3.3?
But if it is hardware issue then why I was not facing it other ROMs?

Im saying that the hardware issue could have just developed and an easy way to test that is with flashing a stockish rom. If it's a software issue, than you'll have no problems with it. I've never had signal issues with Cloudys rom on my vs980

No i had signals issues before and in this room the issue seemed to have worsen but i think its okay .
but the real issue now is .. extremely extremely slow charging .. even tweaking the kernel with fast charging at 2000mAH.. its such a lazy charging .. you can imagine .. for more than 2.5 hours, the charging has just been moved from 12% to 34%.
not using at all .. only charging .. how to resolve this issue ??

Try uninstalling the apps installed with dormant kernel (color changed, synapse, dorimanx kernel settings) forget the names for them but you'll figure it out. Then flash xdabbebs stock kernel (permissive): http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-g2/development/vs98039a-stock-fw-t3051560
If the slow charge is still present, then it's likely a hardware issue. Sounds like you need a new phone with all of the problems you're having. Have you tried cleaning out the charging port with compressed air?

you probably are right that i might need a new phone but i had just got this one and charging was okay with kitkat based ROMS.. like i was using CloudyFlex before and no issue but only with this rom i had this issue. and I had not tried compressed air cleaning at all .. i think i must consider changing the kernel .. it might save the issue..

I'm thinking that the first install of the wrong kernel did some stuff.
Try backing up your stuff, using LG Tool to restore back to stock, and retry the procedure. I'm coming straight off of Resurrection Remix 5.1.1 and I've had no issues with this ROM. Data works without enabling Roaming too.

LG Tool doesnt take me back to stock.. i have to manually flash stock ROM for this ..
actually I had mentioned before, i was already facing severe signals issues and not to forget, GPS is also faulty.
so might be hardware issue that is continued in this ROM too.
But what has been added is .. extremely slow charging .. charging is totally dead.
Using Dorimanx Kernel v 4.6.
even enabled fast charging at 1800 but no effect at all ..

I thought my guide mentioned version 3.9.2..
Well if this ROM doesn't work out for you, stay on CloudyG2 2.2. It's the most stable ROM we have for our VZW G2 out there.

I think so its not working out well .. though i have loved it .. its interface and everything but i have faced so many issues and now i am observing videos are not being played at all ..even tried installing MX Player but same issue..
tonight i am going to flash debloated Stock lollipop cuz i want to use LP .. if it doesn't work out .. then i will revert back to CloudyFlex cuz that was working fine too ..
CloudyG2 and CloudyFlex.. are they the same or different .. i am sorry for my ignorance but these both roms were downloaded by one of my friend so I didn;t keep a check..

Lost data trying to Install LeeDroids Nougat

I was on Santod040's Perfume Port 1.96.617.20 8.0_g CL801953 release-keys with the 1.85.605.8 firmware. Backed up everything in TWRP. Downloaded LeeDroids latest stable version then formatted my SD card in TWRP. Then installed LeeDroid unencrypted with MM firmware. Had no data, so i then restored my backup. to Perfume and now i get no data still.
Prefered Network is LTE/CDMA
APN is set to Verizon Internet
Not sure what else it could be

just tried flashing the 1.85.605.8 radio.... still nothing....

try setting it to global.
wiping modems might work as well but not sure, tbh.
i had to wipe mine today as i was stuck on 3g after playing with N ROMs

Tried Global and I wiped the radio then reflashed new radio and latest MM firmware.
The weird thing that worked was re formatted my SD card again then installed LeeDroids MM Rom Encyrpted. and then i got data back. Re formatted SD then installed Nougat switched to global and now i'm golden.
Thanks for suggestions though

Appreciate this heads up!
Thought I booked it, but luckily didn't.
MM firmware. Multirom.
stock VZW MM ROM, AOKP MM ROM and Leedroid N ROM. All working great, just no VoLTE or Wi-Fi calling on N ROM.

yea, i wiped radios, ruu'd.. all of the things. I couldnt get any advanced service back, new sim, ruu, radio wipe and i was good to go. My thought on it is, if people want to switch CID, install stock nougat, turn advanced calling off prior, i think it will make life easier in the long run

Good thinking. ATM, it may be worth the trouble (depending on how long Verizon will be :laugh since the only thing that really are giving up is HD Calling, and I haven't personally confirmed that I have it working on my current setup anyway. Honestly though, I am very happy where I am right now, N is running great and a reboot brings my to stock ROM if in a quick pinch thanks to multirom (how is this the first device I've used this on:silly
