256kb is the right size. It sounds like someone went the route of trying to hex edit the nv_data.bin to unlock and so on.

It's protected by a md5 checksum file.

Try this - back up the nv_data.bin.md5 in the /efs/root/afs/settings folder as well as the nv_data.bin ( just in case ) and DELETE only the nv_data.bin.md5 file. Reboot. Check your IMEI. Post back.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] zagzag99:
I've tried different, suggested to me in another forum, deleting both files. They got recreated at boot. Still imei zeros.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] thegoo:
Did you try just the.md5 file? And also, did you check your lock statuses? *#7465625#
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] zagzag99:
I have tried that didn't help still zeros.

As for locks, it reports all off.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Light-라이트:
Try this.

Download hex editor.

Open hex editor.

Go look for the nv_data.bin file.

Hit options (the paper looking icon on the botton left of your phone) and click jump to address.

Type 1x1468.

After FF, the next 2 digits probably say 00. Try changing it to 01. And reboot.

If it doesnt work, go back to hex editor and change it back to 00 as thats the network lock.....
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] zagzag99:
You mean address 1468 in hex?

Tried it.

It turned back to 00 after reboot.

Imei still in problem.

Do I need to have the sim in?

I took it out for fear of troubling the network.

Sent from my HTC HD2
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Light-라이트:
I guess not. And no. Having the sim in or not, it doesnt really matter. And you can use the phone perfectly with the imei being straight out 0's. You can call, text, and even use data. Tried it for myself :). Unless theres someone else with the same imei. Id say thats a pretty low chance seeing that most people want their own unique imei. Sorry i couldnt help. but hope you can solve your problem!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] zagzag99:
Unfortunately I can't use the phone with IMEI all in Zeros.

The Carrier blocks me out :-(

I can only switch carrier, but that's a hard option.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] zagzag99:
Do you think this could help?

Anyone had success?

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] zagzag99:
Some more ideas, anyone?

Sent from my HTC HD2
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Light-라이트:
I dunno i read around the forums try taking out the sim and sd card, delete the md5 file, and factory resetting. Then turn off your phone for 15 minutes. Havent tried it myself
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] zagzag99:
Tried that, it results with new efs files being created with the default 000 IMEI :-(

I suspect I found the offsets of the IMEI in the file of the SGS4G (it differs from other models) but I can't decrypt/encrypt it so to write there the correct IMEI value matching the sticker.

Parallel to that I could find people able to do that to other samsung models , but no one that can do that to SGS4G

Hi,

Does anyone have this problem on their phone? Every now and then, when I am doing a data related function, data hangs as though it is not connected even though I am in a perfect 4g coverage area and the 4g sysmbol is still on. I know its hanging because the arrow to the right of the 4g symbol stays lit green. It either starts working 5 minutes later on its own or I turn wifi on and off. I have the newest sim card installed.

Any thoughts?

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
probably a software related issue

the only time i experience that is when i lose connectivity with the network, as in the signal bars or 3G/4G arrows are all greyed
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sarni84:
Yea dude i noticed even tho i have wifi set to never it always shuts off or i should say loses connection i hate it because i have to pull down status bar hit it off then on wifi is definitely effed on stock too. Anyone else experiencing this? I know its a problem cuz my g2x i could leave it alobe for an hour in hibernate come back and wifi still good to go anyone have any ideas? Or is it a s2 problem witg wifi cutting off. Like i said the icon will still be there but i wont have connection and 50% of the time i have wifi icon and 4g
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TJBunch1228:
Same issue here, in two different phones I've had. Not sure what the issue is. In fact, opening this page, my data was hanging for a minute, irony.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
for this issue you can configure how WiFi behaves, but the settings are only accessible via spareparts or custom ROMs

I set my wifi to never sleep while on charger

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mikea3000:
But this happens to me when my wifi is off. Only on the cellar data connection.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Sold2U:
I had this issue after giving juice defender superuser permissions. It seemed that it would not turn data back on when I had the screen on. I'm not sure if this applies to you, but I no longer gave juice defender su and everything was fine. a lot of those functions in that app do not seem to play nicely with this phone yet anyway.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] rsalina9:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] RaymondPJR:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] zender2k:
It happens to me several times a day. Usually right after a voice call. I just put on flight mode for a second, switch it off and data is back. I have no idea what's causing this. Always on 4g, wifi is working perfectly.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] d_bot:
+1 to everything already mentioned.

I was in Vegas this weekend and had HORRIBLY slow/no data at all. Like has been mentioned, the green arrow with just stay lit. thought i was the rom, i nandroided back to stock, same issue. Hope this is fixed soon it is hella annoying.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] h4ng0ver:
This fixed it for me

I have had this same issue for a while, here's how to fix it. Go to Titanium backup, I found out that there're two versions of "My account" on the list, so I frozed the old one, then go to task manager "kill all", the 4G icon will disappear. Open up "My account" again, the 4G reappears but as soon as I close the app, the 4G icon would disappear.

Hope it helps someone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 850T5m:
I too have similar problems where my data hangs or doesnt want to connect. Then a few minutes later, it will decide to start working. This happens even in full signal regions. Stock rom and/or BeastMod rom...

Not sure why it happens :S
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] sarni84:
For those having problems and have tmobile my account on phone freeze it or uninstall it i guarantee it fixes your data problems trust me. I to had problems just like you guys and i was told to uninstall my account i was like what? What the hell is that going to do but believe me when i say it worked! I actually unfroze it to see if the problem would come back (4g and wifi on at same time) or cutting out. And it did. So i refroze my account and bam 4g disapeared while wifi on. This has fixed all my wifi and data problem phone works flawless now! Basically i think t-mobile trying to snoop with our data. Scumbags
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dudinatrix:
This is happening to me. The phone is driving me mad. It happens constantly. The "up arrow" in the 4g icon will light up, and all data will freeze. I stare at loading screens all day long. It freezes anywhere from 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Then it will fix itself, then it will happen again within 2-5 minutes. I'm furious with this phone.

Wifi works great. It's not dependent on my location, it happens no matter where I am. Doesn't matter what I do, nothing prevents it from happening. Of course, the Airplane mode toggle or resetting APNs and all that will do the trick to fix it temporarily, but it will only happen again 5 minutes later.

I'm on stock, unrooted. I am ready to throw this phone at the wall. Has anybody else managed to actually fix it or get a response from Samsung/T-Mobile?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] atn0716:

OK so that will fix the problem. My question is that if we turn that off and go into an area that it has to use att towers, will we still get service? Because if not T-Mobile needs to hurry up and fix that. Love my phone and service but this is a huge annoyance.

Like my earlier conclusion, I really think it's something to do with T-Mobile 4G network. It hasn't been too bad but when it happens, it is extremely frustrating.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] lawalty:
Your right. I still get the data hanging issue. Even on my premium XDA app it sometimes hangs so bad I have to back out of the app and go back into it. It gets very frustrating!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Naldonnis:
I was reading a posy earlier that someone called for their phone to T-Mobile and they stated they are aware of the data hang up and it will be fixed in the 4.0 update. I don't know how true that is.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jonathan3579:
Uhh, data has been hanging since as long as I can remember. It used to happen ALL the time on my G2. It's a network issue and no phone firmware is likely to fix it. Oh T-Mobile. :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] nandixon:
It might just be my particular area (or phone), but using Digital Warfare v2.5.1 in conjunction with the KID modem/baseband (from Android 2.3.5) FINALLY completely eliminated the data hanging problem for me. No more stalled out Up green arrow and having to toggle the data off and on to get it working again! Been working perfectly since the very minute I flashed KID after flashing Warfare and for several days now. No other combination of ROM and modem has achieved that, and I've been using this phone since the 2nd week it came out, and tried many combinations. Hope others might get lucky too!

This will replace the stock battery icon with one that goes down in Increments of 1% instead of the 10%.

This has just a Plain stock look to it.

Made using Yay's 198_7 SBF

zip works with Bootstrap Recovery and CWM

To use on a stock phone

Flash in CWM or Bootstrap

Use Root explorer and rename the framework-res.odex file to framework-res.odex.bak (it's in the System/framework/ folder) then reboot.

Make sure to wipe Dalvik Cache

Will be along first boot

It is true you must be deodexed to theme. You might go ahead and flash anyway.

Soo i did everything you said but only have the indicator in 10% increments, my problem i ran into was there was no framework-res.odex to edit! Only a framework.odex and a framework-res.apk!

[Motorola Photon 4G] TheChronicDroid:
if you just changed the framework-res.apk go into the recovery mode and flash the battery percentage again, it will create another framework-res.apk if you changed the .odex, the battery percentage app won't do cause it doesn't have that file D: luckily I made a backup before I changed the .odex also to unbrick just use rdslite and flash a build over ffrom your computer (don't have the links but I'm sure you could find them Googling photon 4g rds lite)
