[Q] loss 3G [email protected] - Motorola Droid 3

hi,i am using milestone 3(ME863)@Hong Kong version.
after i flashed DROID3-CM9-03-28-SELFKANG, my 3g data no longer works, the signal is fine, i can make/receive calls but as for data, market/internet anything requiring a connection it just does not work unless connected to a wifi network.
Moreover, i have changed the build.prop to gsm but i still cannot use 3g data.
so how can i get back the 3g data?
(sorry for my bad english )

there's a new issue, after i pressed the USA band, my phone did not have any signal. How can i get back the signal?

Searching pays. There's this fix here. The poster uses a XT862 but has XT883's (a.k.a ME863) radio installed on it so his phone should be on the same page as yours and you can safely try this fix. There are lot of guys here using Droid 3 on GSM so you should look around a bit.
Good luck!

thx for your reply. But i still cannot get any 3g data after replaced the build.prop, i only receive the signal. However, when i changed back to stock rom, i can use 3G data and signal. Moreover, i modified the libmoto_ril.so. i can receive 3G data for a second. After that it will disconnect automatically and then it will turn on for a second again.
How can i solve the problem?

Have you updated the internet settings in the device? After flashing CM9 and if you are using GSM, you have to manually go in and set the wap settings if they are not correct on the sim card.

thx for your reply. After i flash cm9 again, i can get the signal again but the new problem is that i cannot use 3g data....

Are that all of the custom roms in this froum cannot support gsm 3g data? i changed the build.prop of all that rom but i still cannot use 3g data

There might be a solution for the 3G Data Connection.
I have a Droid 3 XT862 with the Chinese Radio (XT883 as yours i believe) and my provider is AT&T. I am running CM9 and after i used the buid.prop from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23884104&postcount=1368
3G connection worked just fine. Don't try to flash this zip file through safestrap as it won't (at least no go for my occasion). Uznip it and copy the build.prop file to sd card. Then move it to /system by using Root Explorer (so you can mount /system as RW). Before do that, rename the old build.prop to build.prop.bak so you can have a copy in case new one won't work. You must also change the permissions to the new build.prop to rw-r-r . Finally reboot your phone and see if it will work.
My phone is running CM9 with XT883 radio and my 3G is working just fine.

gingerbread att tab

Just flashed the new gingerbread rom. Works great but it doenst recognize my sim card or network. I have att tab. Any help to restore it?
Did you remember to download the Modem package too? That's what I'm guessing.
sent from my Galaxy Tab using Cerebral up-link
Did you flash the version with the bootloader? Any whiteline issue on boot?
No I didn't download or flash a modem do I need to? I flashed the one with the bootloader. No whiteline I noticed.
I flashed with bootloader, tried 2 different modems, and no network. wifi works. tried flashing back to stock and everything went crazy. While I was using Odin, I STUPIDLY, plugged in my Captivate to charge without thinking, causing Odin to fail and I got the "phone - ! - PC" Icon.......talked about scared! Ended up using Roto's ATT stock image and Odin to get it back running again,barely. Now I get CRAZY lines when I boot (like if you tweaked the cable to an LCD screen), can't see Recovery screen....total craziness. Still no data. so I flashed back to OverCome Gingerbread ROM following his instructions, still no data
UNTIL
I swapped the SIM card with my phone. I suddenly got data on my Tab, but data would not function on my phone. Seems like the problem follows my SIM. Background: I also had a weird issue before hand where I couldn't open the Market on Cellular data without killing the data connection on Stock Rooted.
Thought I'd share.
EDIT: oh, and I can send text messages without issue.
Go to Settings, Wireless & Network, Mobile Networks, Access Point names and make sure you have one called Broadband (assuming you are on the ATT monthly data only plan)
If you dont, create a new APN and name it Broadband & make the APN Broadband as well. Just leave the other options and save it & select it.
I think by default it comes up with the ATT wap.cingular APN with doesnt work with the Tab Data plan.

Gingerbread 2.3.3 installed modem does not work
AT&T monthly pay as you go. What modem.bin do I load? Where can I get it. Is there any additional setup instructions?
Follow my instructions above and flash the JK3 modem fromt this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1069727
Mine keeps saying insert sim card to access. So how do I get it to recognize the sim?
Please anyone with some help? Can I store back to original att froyo and just wait for official upgrade?
Have you guys entered in your APN settings for ATT Broadband?
I am also having a strange radio issue. I am using an ATT Tab with Overcome v2.0 Beta 2 and the JK3 modem. 3G data works great until I try to access the Google Android Market. As soon as I do it drops the 3G connection and wont come back until I reboot it. If I dont go to the market or only go to the market on WiFi it works just fine. I also verified that the same behavior happens with the JPZ modem..
My theory is somehow ATT is blocking Gingerbread Tabs from going to the market using their SIM card. Therefore I think maybe I need to edit my build.prop to spoof them. Can anyone recommend which values should be changed? Can anyone think of anything else that could cause this? Can anyone reproduce this issue on their ATT tab?

You used the bootloader patch app, right?
Reinstall the stock 2.3, then the root, then overcome. Follow the overcome guide, this time put the modem.bin in the phone slot in odin. There is no other fox for the wiggly lines. If you don't reflash everything, you can't get into recovery mode.
i cant get into the network settings as it tells me to insert a sim. I tried to flash the modem as well with no luck.
ok so I turned on my tab to play with it a bit and I had data! It was an H and seemed to work. When I restarted the tab it stopped working and said no sim again.
1) The Gingerbread rom has a modem with it that works fine on AT&T.
2) Did you leave your sim card in while flashing?
i did leave my sim in while flashing. Should I have it out? It seems the tab only recognizes the sim card every so often. Not all the time. Any way to flash the sim recognition part?
Could you please post how you flashed your att tab so I can follow it? Thanks.

i have flashed this mulitple time. fresh. unlocked. rooted. everything. i cant get it to work on my phone, i get a signal and the one bar thing but no data. its fkn gay/weird. i only get this with 2.3.4. anyone know what i am doing wrong or can help me? i woulkd really appreciate it.
Settings for internet if on 3 Network
Ok at first when i go my phone i couldn't make a calls, and when i did the phone would restart itself. So i flashed the radio to 87.00r and it worked.
Then i had to manually set up the apn in order for my internet to work (Mobile Data)
Menu, Settings, Wireless & Networks,Mobile Networks, Access Point Names, create or edit apn.
Name - 3
APN - three.co.uk
ANP TYPE - default
save settings and restart your phone - and that's it really.
I downloaded APN Manager as you stated. I'm in Minnesota, and I switched the APN to one for T-Mobile and got double the speed. Why is that?

How did u flash 2.3.4 and U have your APN set up right and select HSPA and restart. U can check if trying to connect, Go to Settings, to About phone, to Status And Its under Mobile network state!
FOR THOSE ON AT&T
If you are on the AT&T Network and you upgraded to GB from Froyo and didn't delete your APNs or carried them over using Titanium Backup, you should be fine.
For those of you who didn't or installed Navalynt's Mod/reset your data/whatever else you did to lose your APNs, you don't need to download APN Manager in order to get it back.
It seems the problem with the defaulted APN for AT&T in this particular build is that it is missing the password. If you put back in the password, it works perfectly fine. The password is 'CINGULAR1'. So for anyone having problems with their APNs, try defaulting it or just adding the password in first.
Let me know how that goes for you guys
P.S. Can we get someone to mod the default APN to include the password? Or even better, to replace the defaults and add in the defaults from Froyo build? If someone can (or i can try to look into it) that'd be amazing

Fully restore your phone using my Fast / Easy unbrick method, just search the general section. (All it does is restore your phone to complete stock.)
You can try other stuff, but this method seems to fix most issues that aren't "easy" to fix.
I will try this method.
But I want to know if there are something can be changed or flashed other than this rom.
I want to fix my phone's network.
It not work on cdma , gsm or wcdma.
I flash xt883 rom, but nothing happened.
Can i flash radio? Change hardware setting.
who can tell me.

You don't need the xt883 ROM in order to use the phone on any foreign gsm. The phone must be unlocked by Verizon, then you need to flash the xt883 radio.img, then edit/replace the build.prop. I would flash back to stock first, since the xt883 is a weird ROM, but you probably don't have to. There are already plenty of threads where the explanations have been given, so look around: search Verizon D3 on T-Mobile, D3 on AT&T/T-Mobile, etc.
You will have to turn off 'automatically select operator' in settings and choose manually the one you're using. T-Mobile users will only get edge and below, while AT&T users will get 3g.

I'm not sure what is wrong with your connection, but mine has problems sometimes where the phone will not recognize any available gsm networks. It's sometimes like this after I reboot my phone, but if changing my settings doesn't work, rebooting again will usually work.
Is your phone unlocked by Verizon? Did you flash the xt883 radio.img since changing your ROM? Did you replace your build.prop file with the tweaked one? I will try to find these resources for you if you still need them, but you should be able to find them by searching if you haven't already. After doing these things, you just have to reboot then go to your settings and tell it to prefer gsm. On T-Mobile, you wont get umts. On AT&T you will get gsm and umts.
In settings, you need to select wifi & network settings -> mobile networks -> network mode -> then choose gsm/umts, back to mobile networks -> under gsm/umts settings, click select network, then choose gsm only for T-Mobile or automatic for AT&T, then click operator select, select network and choose your operator. Select automatically will have a check box next to it and you should deselect it. I didn't have to put in my apn settings, because my sim card provides those automatically.
If these settings tweaks don't work for you then I really have no clue what will fix it because it is likely that something else is wrong. I can't be of much more help without seeing the device. I would suggest to keep playing around in settings and just use your head to see why it's not connecting. If you are getting voice and text service on your carrier, data shouldn't be a problem if your settings are done correctly.
Good luck!

[Q] Verizon Droid 3 GSM Data

This may be an old question, but I've been unable to find an answer...
I have an off-contract verizon Droid 3. So I flashe the radio ROM with the Chinese 883 variant. I took it to the UK and put a "3" SIM into it. I got voice + txt, but I didn't get data.
(I didn't have a PC in the UK so I couldn't do more testing... had to wait until I got home)
OK, I come back to the US and I do some testing...
I rebuild from scratch with 5.7.906. I force the machine into GSM mode. Then I use "Network System Information" (NSI). I see my SIM card; my UK phone number, MMC, MNC. But, of course, it doesn't work in the US becuase the phone won't talk to US GSM networks with Verizon firmware.
I change the radio to the Chinese radio.img, as per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406812 - I also replace build.prop, /system/lib/libmoto_ril.so and /system/etc/ppp/peers/pppd-ril.options
Now I reboot and I can see the GSM network (T-Mobile, in this case), but NSI doesn't get to see SIM contents; no phone number, no MNC, no MMC. And so I'm back to phone+txt but no data; the APN isn't picked up.
Do I need to do something else to get data working?
(Probably if I leave it with the Verizon radio ROM then next time I go to England I'll get data, but it means I don't get the SIM working while in the US).

Grab a T-Mobile prepaid SIM so you can test further. You shouldn't have to replace any files except the radio and build.prop for the 883 Chinese radio from the Verizon XT862 radio/build.prop.

OK, I rebuilt back to Verizon factory just so I have a clean slate.
I don't have a T-Mobile SIM but I do have an (expired, deactived) UK Virgin Mobile SIM.
I put that in the phone with the Verizon Radio ROM and, as expected, it won't connect to AT&T. NSI will show me the MNC, MCC, phone number and othe SIM details.
I switch to Chinese ROM and build.prop... and I can still see the details! This is something new...
OK, with that level of success I switch back to the 3 SIM card. And... no data.
So:
Verizon Radio and build: 3 SIM visible in NSI but won't connect. Virgin SIM visible in NSI but won't connect
Chinese Radio and build: 3 SIM _not_ visible in NSI. Connects for voice+txt, no data. Virgin SIM visible but won't connect ('cos expired)
Hmm, looks like some interaction between the radio and the SIM. Odd!
Sorry I meant get a T-Mobile SIM so you can test the 883 radio.
What testing are you proposing? Other than "data works with a T-Mobile SIM" of course
Since the MNC and MMC aren't visible with the Chinese ROM and the 3 SIM, no APN is selected and so no data... with the Virgin SIM the MNC and MMC are visible and I can see APNs in the APN settings screen.
all i ever did was 1. get unlock code , 2.flash 883 radio , 3. change build,prop.
have to root first of course.
never ran into an issue except once when i accidentally erased some files in the system folder.
I have never understood why install xt883 radio when xt862 works great with gsm networks (all G/E/3G/H connection modes with data). Is there any reason for doing that?

The xt862 radio is unlocked for gsm networks outside the US, but will not allow US GSM SIMs from T-Mobile and AT&T to work.

It's not the SIM, it's the network. A UK "3" SIM won't join T-Mobile or AT&T with the Verizon radio ROM, but it will with the alternate ROM.
SOLUTION
Hi and morning to you. I work for your carrier (TECH SUPPORT) so i think i know what the issue is. you can call them and verify this i'm sure they will agree but dont mention my name
3 sim card only works on 3g network and when you put the phone in a 2g phone it dosent. i know the droid 3 is 3g but like you there are 80 % d3 owners having same issue of no 3g data. when you root and install a rom the data capability goes away. try this .......
set up a new apn WITH ► NAME : 3, ► APN : THREE.CO.UK and go to last option ► apn type and type the word "default" then save and reboot. dont forget to activate mobile data. i think it will at least give you 2g kind of internet. i have droid 3 and i took it when i was in the u.s and now in india
lemme know it it works. forgot to mention....there is patch to get 3g data working (google) it.

No this doesn't work because the MNC and MCC aren't visible and so the phone won't select the APN.
Sad it dosent work. Why dont you upgrade phone to Droid 3 stock (download unbrick Droid .bat from Droid 3 developement unbrick/root 1st post and then start from scratch like rooting , safestrap stc ) in case if u flash n if there is no signal then activate roaming. I have done d same.

That's exactly what I did; I reflashed to 5.7.906 using moto-fastboot. With the VZW radio ROM I can see the SIM MNC MCC but (of course) it won't talk GSM in the US. With the Chinese radio ROM it'll talk to the network but without data 'cos it doesn't see the MNC MCC.
The whole question is moot now 'cos I've now got an S4 and cut the SIM to size; that works just fine

I've ported xt861 (2.3.6) rom to xt862 (called it cROM) to use it in Europe/Poland, but have same problem with data transfer. The solution was:
1. download full apns-conf.xml file with most of world networks apns (about 160kb)
2. copy the file to /system/etc/apns-conf_0.xml
3. create two links
ln -s /system/etc/apns-conf_0.xml /system/etc/apns-conf_.xml
ln -s /system/etc/apns-conf_0.xml /system/etc/apns-conf.xml
4. reboot
Try this (from terminal):
su
rm -R /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases
reboot

Hello,
Did you got it working ?
Many people in Austria have since mid of July problems with the Droid 4 GSM.
I used the Original JB ROM with Mentor, but since mid of July it didnt found any GSM signal anymore.
Now I have installed CM11, GSM and Internet works,
but the GSM works only with 2G and the Internet only with EDGE mode anymore.
Did you found maybe already a solution to get it fully working again ?
We cant find any solution...if you know something, let me know please.
regards
I can try to helping you but you should answer to these questions:
Did you do some change before to not having anymore gsm signal?
What is your stock rom version?
With the original stock rom without any modification what is the situation?
Could you try the original stock rom without my gsm rom but with my latest gsm patch?

I'm in Austria too (provider yesss) and i'm facing the same issue. I already did an full wipe, went back to stock, rooted, installed safestrap again und finally slimkat 7.0 with the gsm patch. Still i just get an edge connection but whenever the droid tries to connect to umts, the signal gets lost totally (no service).

@Mentor.37
i did not any changes - it didnt worked anymore from one minute to the other
i used the Original JB ROM with the Mentor ROM (i cant remember the exactly ROM Version, but it was the official Stock from Verizon/Motorola)
With the original Stock ROM i dont get any connection (no telephony and no internet) - also not any 2G connection...
With the Original Stock ROM and Mentor ROM its the same....no connection (no telephony and no internet).
I flashed CM11 and there i got a connection, but the connection is only 2G (telephony and the internet works only with 2G mode) - no 3G mode.
I also flashed the "Original Motorola Image" back, but there i didnt got also any connection
I used some "Moto XT894 Utility" which i found here in the forum - but always the same - no connection. The "Moto XT894 Utility" contained the Original JB ROM.
@magikstar which Tool you exactly used for flashing back the Original Image ? Can you send me maybe the download links ?
Maybe you have used another tool for flashing back than i.
As Provider i use: A1 (Telekom Austria)
many other people in Austria have the same problem....
@lzmichael
My provider is YESS!!, which belongs to A1 and therefore I'm in the A1 network too. Seems like an A1 issue, because a friend of mine (he has a droid4 too) has Drei, and does not have a problem with 3G.

go to http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=11 and download the latest firmware Android 4.1.2 Blur_Version.98.72.188.XT894.Verizon.en.US
then unzip it and boot your phone into bootloader
flash via fastboot the boot.img,emstorage.img,preinstall.img,radio.img,re covery.img,system.img
and reboot your device and finally mentor's rom wia safestrap
not working
thanks, i did that....but it still works only with 2G mode
with 3G it didnt connect (no network)
what can i do ?
You could try installing the stock 18-9 version, if i'm not in error in it there has been some little update in the radio for gsm users in the canada and that could help every gsm user.

I dont have installed a GSM Patch (i never had that installed before), but i can try.
Today i have installed:
VRZ_XT894_9.8.2O-72_VZW-18-8_CFC.xml.zip
and the MentorRom (Version from March 2014).
With that i have 2G connection. 3G didnt work.
The same problem was with the CM11 - only 2G worked
Where i can get the 18.9 Version from the Stock-ROM?
If you are using my rom you do not have to install the gsm patch but if you are using any other aosp rom you have to install my gsm patch.
Now for testing you can try installing my latest gsm patch, in it i made some change that i have not yet merged in my gsm rom, if no luck you can try updating to 18-9 in this way:
- install the 18-2 version, here the download
- from ota you should update to 18-9
- now you can try the stock rom without any mod and with my patch
if these things will not help we will try in another way.

I have installed now the latest GSM Patch (v3.2.2), but it still doesnt work with 3G mode (no internet connection and no telephony with 3G)
...if i switch to 2G it works
(for example: with a Drei Austria sim card the phone works fine - and with T-Mobile Austria is the same problem as with A1).
I will try to install that 18-2 Update later, when i have a fast WLAN connection to get the OTA update (to 18-9) quickly...

im wondering that that problem only appears in austria. since mid of july...much people have problems
There is something that your provider changed and that that caused this, I hope that we will solve the problem but with our locked bootloader this will be really hard.
Have you tried contacting your providers to knowing what's happening?
Anyway if after updating to 18-9 the problem will be yet present you can attach here your logcats when you are in 3g with no service.

Yes, i have contacted the provider in July and have asked what i can do. i have then asked if they had changed something - like APNs or so, and the provider said, that they didnt changed anything. they replaced then my simcard - they thought maybe is the simcard defect, but the simcard was ok, anyway i have now a new simcard.
but the phone-support from the provider didnt know if something "internal" got changed at the provider...thats what i think.
After flashing the stockrom (with mentor addon), i got a 3G signal for 30-50 seconds, then the signal was away.
the same thing was end of july, after flashing the stockrom (there i had some older version flashed), i got a 3G signal for few seconds - then never again.
no 3G signal after rebooting and so again - it worked only short after installing the new rom.
How its possible to get that "logcats" ? I never did that before. In which directory or so on the phone are the logs ?.
Pretty interesting the output of the log.
I'm writing from my droid so a full log may be diffult now.
08-11 07:57:11.326 D/MobileDataStateTracker(237): cbs: Broadcast received: android.intent.action.ANY_DATA_STATE apnType=cbs
08-11 07:57:11.334 D/MobileDataStateTracker(237): cbs: Received state=DISCONNECTED, old=DISCONNECTED, reason=dataDetached
08-11 07:57:11.396 D/Nat464Xlat(237): requiresClat: netType=0, hasIPv4Address=true
After the last line appears, the cell connection drops.
When i am on gsm only, netType equals to 5.

With adb:
Code:

or with the app Catlog.

I need the all log, if you are using Catlog there should be the radio option.

I cleared the log before I captured the radio log. At the beginning I had an established 2G (GSM only) connection. Then I switched to "GSM auto(PRL)" - the connection dropped and finally I went back to "GSM only" again. Just fyi what I was doing when the log was captured.
