Hey guys, running Das bamf 1.4
I dialed ##778 edit mode and all that. clicked enabled I did that last time but now I can't go 3g I pulled out the battery complete restart all apps. And yeah any help? I'm running das bamf 1.4 stock kenernal (I spelled it wrong I know, doesn't matter u know what i mean)
-THUNDERBOLTS ARE GO!!
I am having the same problem right now. I was on BAMF 1.4 and it was running great. I flashed Tesla and I could not get on 4gLTE. I restored back to BAMF and still no 4g. I might go back to stock and see if that fixes the problem.
Try wiping everything and then reflash the rom. And when i say everything i mean cache, dalvnik cache, phone data, etc.
I know i know, what I just did was go to settings SD and storage and did a software rest. Now it works
I did the factory reset 3 times. I also wiped Dalvnik, and battery stats 3 times. I finally just unrooted and went back to stock. That fixed it. I just rooted again and installed Tesla Coil without any problems.
Main troubleshooting steps:
Battery cover all the way on? You'd be surprised on how common that issue is.
Is there network issues within your network? There have been here in NJ.
Have you tried a battery pull? It's amazing what that can fix.
Is the 3G signal too weak? It could say something like -83dB but still, no 3G for me sometimes.
The list of things to try goes on and on. I can't blame a ROM for something that could more than likely be user error or network issues.

im in Jersey too...do u know the specific problems?
i get what i guess u can call spotty 3g...sometimes go to do something in app that requires data and nothing happens for a while then 3g shows up..sometimes I initiate browser and that makes it connect to 3g
For some reason my phone was in LTE MODE. I switched it auto prl. In 3g back.
hey guys,
havent posted here in a long time, but i have been having some odd problems regarding my fascinate. I recently updated from superclean to the UKB 2.0, then installed the 2.1 patch immediately after. While on superclean i attempted to update my radio, odin'd to various different ones since the phone seemed to have sporadic service and the 1x/3g symbol had basically vanished. so i flashed UKB and noticed even worse radio service, and so i odin'd dl09 on to the phone which didnt seem to help at all and now im at ed04 through CWM. my phone works alright now, with better service but still a data connection that cant seem to hold. and now of all a sudden im constantly losing all bars and its saying i have no service in the same location i was receiving 2 bars.
so i was wondering if anyone has had this problem or can point out something that i did horribly wrong, since it seems the state of the phone's radio has just been decreasing since i started fiddling with it. any thoughts would be much appreciated!
thanks
oh and just noticed that gps is no longer functioning...lol
solved. seems that part of the problem was juice defender which was supposed to only disable data connection when the screen was off, but apparently was toggling full airplane mode almost randomly, even while awake and when trying to send a text.
other thing i did was flash back to stock rom with dl09 to wipe everything, rerooted and updated to UKB, and have done nothing with the radio. ive noticed radio still is functioning subpar to when i was in stock so im confused there but i got functionality back.
gps works now too although i added GPSaids, first few seconds is completely wrong but as it picks up more sats it homes in frighteningly fast to my precise location.
edit: data connection still seems to be dropping only when i start attempting to access data, but that seems to be a new problem
I'm having the same problem, fresh install of ukb 2.0 restart then 2.1.
I have the EC01 Modem,
Signal is all over the place constantly. 3g, 1x, phone only, mostly is 2 bars then 0, back and forth
Wifi is a little weird, so is bluetooth...
I think I'm just going to wait for JT's full CM7...
So I got my Thunderbolt a while ago and finally decided to root it. I first flashed the CM7 ROM and really liked it except for the fact that I couldn't get the GPS to work. I would really like that feature so I decided to try a different ROM. I flashed the BAMF 3.0 stripped ROM and really liked it, but I couldn't get the data to work. I tried installing the MR2 and MR2.5 radios and nothing seemed to fix it. Ended up installing Liquid Gingersense and still no data. Am I doing something wrong on whole or does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
Did you happen to take out the battery during the process of switching things around? The battery cover not being completely snapped in with cause the problem with data. I also hear ppl say that if they go into the LTE settings and switching the network type to something else like LTE mode and then back to CDMA + LTE/EvDo auto fixes the problem.
I guess I did end up pulling the battery a couple times through the whole process but I think I've got the cover back on all the way. Why would this cause a problem? Is part of an antenna or something on the cover?
Also I have tried multiple times switching to all the different options between CDMA auto, CDMA only, EvDo only, CDMA + LTE/EvDo auto and LTE mode and I never get anything better than cell service. Never any data.
Yea the battery cover completes a connection for the antenna used for data. Its the weirdest thing but its a common cause for data loss with people.
Hmmm, crazy, I do see it now. You know that may have been part of my problem last night. There was a point that I had the battery cover off for a while I guess. But wouldn't it be fixed as soon as I put the cover back on? I'm still not getting anything now?
Doing a restart after replacing the cover might speed up the phone finding a data signal again but if that doesnt work it might not be the issue. I looked at the Gingersense's page and notice that the radio he recommends is the official 2.0 radio which is the newest one we have. I dont know that not having that would cause a problem but you could give flashing that a shot to see if it gets you data.
I'd been running Checkrom v4 almost since the day i got my phone (4 months ago) without any technical problems what so ever. Yesterday i did a clean install of Checkrom V6 and encountered no problems in the first few hours of use. Eventually i plugged the phone in to charge for a few hours and upon using it again i had absolutely no internet connectivity via wifi or 3g.
Since i needed connectivity right away i flashed my V4 backup only to find that i still had connectivity! Since it was late and i need to sleep i just left the phone over night and discovered in the morning that connectivity had not returned. Unfortunately it had gone again a few hours later.
The fact that i get no connectivity via wifi or 3g and that it occurs only my previously faultless V4 system i can only assume that it must be some sort of physical fault with the phone, not Checkrom.
Is there anything i can do to make absolutely sure that this is the case before i think about sending the phone back to Samsung?
Thanks
Might be a physical problem. Only one way to find out.
Clean install of stock firmware.
If you have the same firmware with a fresh install of stock, then maybe it's a hardware issue. If not, then it's obviously something with the custom rom you were running.
Before you go down the stock route tho, you could try a bunch of other modems & see if you can find one that improves the situation. That might improve the 3G connectivity but won't help with WiFi as those drivers are in the kernel.

I'll flash a stock firmware/kernal and see how it goes. I'm pretty concerned though since the problem is mirrored on my V4 system that had been running flawlessly for months
Hey guys, lately my wi-fi connection has been very slippery, as if it drops and then reconnects often, although it remains physically connected to my router. I don't know if it could be my router since every other device in my home is connecting to it fine. My phone is able to connect well to networks outside of my home, though, so I am unsure. Do you guys think it's the routers fault or maybe a kernel issue of some sort (I'm running stock kernel)? I've been having this issue on Tranquility and Viper ROM (maybe also on Mean) so it can't be A ROM issue. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
sounds like u have a gaf phone man.. if every other phone in ya house connects fine.. its not the stock kernel.. also the update we just had the OTA was supposed to fix wifi issues.. so u mite have something up with your phone.. alot of people had wifi issues that why they had a fix in the for it in the OTA we just got... my phone did the same ishh before the OTA now its fine..
I drop 3G like It's cool but that's sprints problem, never had that issue on WiFi. This phone has very powerful radios.

Check your wifi settings and make sure that your wifi connection is set to never sleep. Also Check your wifi frequency band in "wifi advance settings" and make sure its set to 2.4 only. That might help.

I doubt my phone is bad since it can connect find everywhere else. I'll try those tips, thanks

In wifi settings change the frequency from auto to 2.4 ghz. It fixed my wifi issues.

There's an app in the Market called WiFi analyzer. U can use it to see what other wireless networks are operating in your area. It will also reccomend the best channel for your router to be on.
Sometimes there is a lot of interference on your channel and switching it will help or has helped quite a few people with your problem that I know of.
I had a problem at work with a linksys router not issuing an ip address to my phone consistently. What I did is take a screenshot of my ip address, subnet mask, DNS address defaults, etc. when u could connect. Then I made myself a static ip using that info. A good app that basically let's u run ipconfig and other network troubleshooting applications is an app called Fing.
I've worked on this issue far and wide. If the new ota didn't help and u still get random disconnects thru WiFi then u need to exchange your phone. It is actually a problem with the radio. My first EVO LTE did it and I could fix WiFi disconnects temporarily, but not permanently. This, my 3rd EVO LTE works great with no ota installed.
Good luck. Hope I was of some help. Pm me if u need more help.

For me, I was on a different channel than my neighbors with no other wireless device ever had a problem in the 12 years I've been there.
What I do, Go into wifi advanced and click on the high-performance setting.
Only use it when needed as it burns battery.
Post back if it fixes the drop issue for you. Fixed it for me.
.,
Last night I flashed the awesome kernel and set the frequency to 2.4 seemed to go away. Today I flashed tranquility rls 1.a and I'm running it as is and having the issue again . I'll try out your suggestion throughout today and tomorrow, thanks for the tips guys!

I've been hearing about people talking about the wifi issues since day one, but never actually run into them. The past few days though I've been trying to stream and download things (exporting through dropbox) over wifi, and OMG, what the hell is this? Every 2 or three minutes the connection just stops - the wifi bars at the top still show the wifi connected, but the the stream or download just stops. Sometimes it starts up again, sometimes I have to disconnect from the wifi and reconnect. And the whole time the wifi indicator doesn't indicate any loss of signal - once in a blue moon though you'll see it disconnect then reconnect. I don't want to hit that high-performance setting (although it seemed to help the in the limited time I used it), because it uses more battery. I thought the update was supposed to resolve these issues. I know I never had these issues before the update. None of the tricks mentioned in this thread seemed to help. Just wanted to report the issue in case some other people are having it also, and hoping an update will come out in the near future to resolve it. On Viper4G, btw. If have time at some point, I'll try to flash another rom to see if I get the same issue.

It's kind of strange,mine has been dropping but the actual indicator in the status bar goes off when it does.I've seen it connect and disconnect 10-12 times per minute.I'm also running latest firmware/radios on the latest version of ViperRom.I'm also running Enoch's Kernel but not sure if I had the problem before the kernel flash or not.
im having the same issue. ive only really started noticing it because i was running chameleon pretty much since i got the phone and this never seemed to be an issue. now im on viper4g and my wifi will drop sporadically. it drops, i see the 3g icon for about half a second, and the the wifi reconnects. sometimes itll do it just once, sometimes itll do it continuously... the longest ive let it go before interfering is about 30 seconds. but my battery usage screen tells me that it goes on for way longer than that if left alone.
anyway, im on the lastest firmware, and i have the channel set to 2.4 (5 seems to knock everything in my apt, including my phone, off the router). i use the best wifi performance option sometimes, but as has been mentioned, it drains the battery. the phone wont sleep with that option checked. also, it seems to happen more frequently when im on the opposite side of my apt from the router.
ive read stuff about using a screwdriver to pull the antenna pins up a little, but that scares me. i dont really think that has anything to do with it anyway as ive tried that test where you squeeze the phone to see if your signal changes. it doesnt.
really, im kinda at a loss here. im thinking that i might try to exchange the phone if i cant get this figured out soon, but i dont want to do that if its something with my router or if the replacement is going to do the same thing.
I am using Viper 4G and have been having issues with my wifi connection dropping but more recently my phone has been restarting only while connected to Wifi. I haven't tried changing the wifi Frequency band to only 2.4GHz , but I will once I get home after work. I hope it works because its getting kinda annoying to have my phone restart so much while its just sitting idle.
I believe the rapid connect/disconnect issue some of us are having is also related to the phone not playing nice with particular routers. HTC referenced that fact when the 1.22 OTA came out. The changelog said the issue was fixed on how the phone communicated with certain routers and the disconnects should be eliminated. I can attest that the new update has made it a little better, but still not 100%.
The router at my work has been perfect, I've never disconnected from it once.
The router at my house is a whole different story. I have given up on downloading a ROM with my phone, directly to my phone. I will start the DL, sit the phone down and go do something, only to come back and find "download unsuccessful" every single time. I know it is because it is disconnecting. I can sit there and watch it happen.
The router at my friend's house is fine. Connect once, and never worry again the rest of the night. Obviously I need a new router. More obviously, HTC's software needs fixing. I shouldn't have to buy a new router just so one of my devices can stay connected to it.
Interesting seeing all these reports of dropped connnections with Viper4G. I've been running it for a few weeks and have never had a connection drop while it was in use on either the 2.4ghz or 5ghz bands of my d-link router. This thread over here suggests that replacing your Sense Settings.apk with an AOSP Settings.apk solves the problem for some people. I can't verify since I wasn't experiencing disconnects, but the AOSP menus are cool anyway

My issues (detailed above) have apparently resolved themselves. I haven't lost connection once today, and I was streaming and downloading all day.
I don't see how this actually did anything but here's what I did. I decided to try another kernel instead of the stock one that comes in the viper rom. I knew the wifi fixes that HTC supposedly made were in the new kernel, and I knew I wasn't having any issues until I updated, so I thought I'd give a custom kernel (based off the old base) a shot, and play around with some new governors and overclocking while I'm at it. I did a nand backup and flashed awesome sauce. Wifi issues were gone, but I didn't like the kernel, stock seemed smoother. So i restored my backup, and for whatever reason, my wifi issues remained gone. Like I said, I can't explain it, but there you go.
Nice to know I'm not alone with this. My Wifi drops every so often, particularly at night time or with downloads. Hopefully HTC figured out a way to sort this out 100%.

If you have a wireless router like myself that operates at two distinct bands, go into your Wi-Fi settings and choose the band that is at the higher range, and setting best performance is also a good idea, although this might result in greater battery drain. HTH!
