[Q] Data issue after root with PhilZ and SuperSU? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was just wondering if anyone else has had this issue. Title related, it's how I rooted, and I've flashed some custom ROMs since then but it's happened before I did that as well as with every ROM I've flashed. I occasionally have an issue when conected to to 3G or 4G where my internet just won't load at all. Restarting the phone fixes the issue completely, but I'm left wondering if other data services such as call and text are also being affected during these times. I usually reboot my phone once or twice a day anyway, but I'm just wondering why this is happening, and if anyone else gets this issue, or knows a fix.

I'm having the same problem... I've wipe my while phone and put the same rom twice and it works in the beginning but after 2 days the problem starts again

Galaxy Note losing data?

I've had my Galaxy Note for a few months now with no issues, all of a sudden last week it would show the H logo (but the little arrows showing data conntection would not move). but when I clicked on anything I would not have any sort of internet connection. I have to restart the phone to get internet connection again, I was on a new rom for over a week before it started happening, I tried 2 other roms since then and still have the same issue. I am about to try a stock rom and see if it still happens. I have also tried different kernels, is there anything else I should try? I show full bars for phone signal and still receive texts (not mms) normally when this happens but no data at all until I restart my phone.
Do you have any "power saving" apps like juicedefender? If you do, you may want to check your settigns as it could be disabled by said app (although you should be able to reconnect at any given time).
You said you have switched roms to see if the issue persisted. When you did this, did you full wipe or just wiped cache?

I've been having similar problems with a few of the custom roms (but can't remember if stock does it or not). In my case I'd lose data for about 5-10, then it would come back, and it randomly happened. I fortunately don't have to restart the phone to fix the issue like you do though. :\ Let me know if the stock rom fixes things!

I don't have juice defender or anything like that... even when i restart my phone, it takes forever for it to catch data, right now i restarted it, its been probably on for a good 3-4 min and still not showing any data.
I always full wipe when I install a new rom.
and it finally came on after a reset but usually data shows the second the phone turns on, this time it took it a good 5 minutes before the H appeared
I would suggest restoring to your first backup after you rooted your phone and see how it goes with the stock rom. Good luck!

Has Anyone else experienced this?

hey guys,
I am running Brainmaster's final miui gb rom with the stock kernel and what I have been experiencing when trying any other kernel (francos, glagos etc..) is that my phone shows I have signal and it displays vodafone uk however I don't have a signal. I know this because if I then restart the phone say after an hour of recieving no texts etc.. I get all of my messages. This seems to be happening alot and when it happens I am unable to turn on airplane mode only a restart will do.
I am now back to stock kernel which didn't seem to have the same issue but I am now recieving texts 5-10 mins later which is unusual. Also I have data turned off always.
I have KF1 radio flashed and no radio dumps. My main issue is it displayed I have signal when I don't.
Was just wondering if anyone had experienced a similar issue?

anyone else have any ideas or experience this?

Cellular connection lost and unable to reconnect

I don't know if anyone has experienced this but I've noticed that occasionally cellular connection will be dropped and it will not reconnect regardless of time and coverage. It also seems isolated to my phone. It was like that since I got it I think. Only fix is to reboot at which point connection will be reestablished immediately.
Anyone know of a fix or have the same experience?
Newer stock roms have not fixed it nor has custom kernel. I'm considering trying to see if a custom rom does the trick.
I hope it's not a hardware problem. Would be a pain to try and cover up all I've done to my phone
Bump. I think it's a hardware issue. It's like the radio deactivates itself or loses power. A search for network providers doesn't seem to come up with anything. Only a reboot solves it as mentioned.
No one else has this issue?

Issue with data connection dropping and text messages

Had regular galaxy s4 from att since it came out, never did any rooting or anything, updating to kitkat Ota when it was released and had no issues until about a week ago. I did a factory data reset because of too much junk on the phone and wanted to reorganize a bit, backed up everything using kies 3 and ever since then my data/signal cuts out randomly everyday, all day long. The more I text I noticed the more it drops, and then goes from LTE to 4g and it'll stay that way until some random amount of time, disconnect again, back to LTE once in a while but mostly be 4G. I heard of some issues with the kitkat update causing various issues like this but don't understand how a simple factory reset and restore screwed it all up or if it's even that. Tried full format, reflashing entire stock firmware and has done absolutely nothing for remedying the problem. Is it possible it's a sim card issue?

I have been having the same problems since I took an OTA update. LTE is very intermittent in places I know it is available and I randomly lose my cell connection for brief periods, which is a huge pain for SMS. I just flashed NB1 with ODIN and everything worked for the brief time before I updated to NC1 (LTE, no connection drop). When I updated to NC1 I started experiencing problems again. I subsequently tried flashing back to the NB1 modem to no avail
I tried ATT support at one point and they reset some stuff on their end (a while ago so I don't remember what) but that did nothing.
Anyone with any insight here would be my hero. This has been plaguing me since december.
Update: Tried re-flashing NC1 modem twice via ODIN with manual reboot. Still no LTE, not sure about connection drops yet.
Went to att store yesterday, thought maybe bad sim card, they replaced it and problem still persists... Looks like I'm getting the note 4 next month cause this is driving me crazy, so I guess I just need to put up with it until then.

+2 to this issue. My wife and I both have the same problem as you've described, and it's gotten progressively worse with time. The worst part is that the phone seems to think that cellular connectivity is still there as I still have bars. However, data, phone and text capabilities are all dead. The only fix is a reboot, and it's short lived.
I've read on another forum that disabling 3G and 4G eliminates the problem, but then you're stuck with basically no mobile data...
Anyone with advice, I'm willing to experiment!!!
It's hard to believe no one else is seeing this problem, or attempting to resolve it...
Wiped x3, flashed MDB mode and Odin'd back to stock MDB ROM. Let sit for an hour, then flashed back to stock NC1 ROM & Modem. Modem hang in less than a day...anyone else have any ideas how to fix these modem hangs? I don't have any ideas left.
Got the same problem. Mine started happening on MK2, so I updated to NB1 then immediately NC1. No change at all. I was concerned that it was because I'd rooted and was running Xposed framework and a bunch of modules. I was about to flashback to stock, but after reading some of you folks issues, I won't bother.
Looks like an upgrade sooner than later is in order.

[Q] Disconnects from mobile network several times per day

Hi guys, i know this is a common problem, but i have yet to find a solution to it. My S4 (Bell Canada, KOT49H.I337MVLUFNI2, completely stock unrooted) will drop the mobile network (both voice & data), and the only way to get reconnected to Bell is by rebooting my device. After a reboot I might be good for a few hours or for a few days but it always happens again. At first the mobile signal will grey out, then eventually turn to a circle with a line through it. In the network mode setting becomes blank and non-selectable.
Suggestions around the web include selecting WCDMA only, clearing the cache, factory resets, and reflash the full firmware package with Kies3 & Odin. Ive tried them all and the problem always inevitably returns.
Here are a few links to people with similar problems, but nobody seems to have a solution in any of these threads either:

Other than returning it for a replacement under warranty, does anybody have any other suggestions to fix this? Thanks.
anyone?
Are you sure your problem isn't the same as the sim card removed problems? Because the symptoms sound the same in the effect they have, and what is required to temporarily fix it.
See here and here.
I've experienced the same problem, but it seems to have cleared itself.
It first started happening after the update to the latest Bell stock firmware.
I had read some people blaming it the Amazon app store as well as the Skype app. I had both installed, but have since removed Skype but can't say 100% that this is what solved the issue for me.

I have the same problem, this is not the sim card removed problem, this is a bug in Android 4.4.2 because the problem was not present in 4.3 maybe the recent update to 4.4.4 solve this, has someone try out ?

My SIM card is still in place and detected, the phone just disconnects from the network. After a reboot it will be fine sometimes for a few hours - sometimes a few days, but it always inevitably disconnects.
If you check any of the several links I posted you'll see there are hundreds (if not thousands) of people on all different carriers all experiencing the same problem.

I've had my device since Jan of 2014 and the problem only appeared in the last few months following the 4.4.2 update.
I'm having the same problem. It disconnects and reconnects again. Stays disconnected for about 2 mins. Happens like 12 times a day. I re enter the apn setting and still does it..it happens with every rom I flash. I've notices that it mostly happens when it switches from 4g lte to 4g. I'm on At&t 4.4.4
bump. anyone ever find a solution to this?
