Yeah I'll keep looking, now that we know Stealth doesn't have the problem on masta's 8/12 build.

Who wants to flash some builds from after that date to see when the problem actually started? Would help pin down what commits I should be looking at.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iamrazor:
/me clean flashes mastas 10.01 build. The issue happens to me pretty frequently. I'm on the east cost, I should have an answer in the next 7-8 hours.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Hey [MENTION=4949513]Chris123NT[/MENTION] https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/4241923bcf136fa2e0cfe18c9ca9342caa9b98c7
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iamrazor:
^^^

Well that was quick.

P.S.-10.1 had the data issue. on to 9.26
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
It may be it may not, the time that this data drop started is right when a cluster fk of crap started to flood in for telephony :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iamrazor:
9.26 is switching from wifi to 3g immediately and data seems solid. I'd try another build between that time span, but I don't have one..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buschbarber:
Sweet
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Builds from 9/19 to 10/4 had issues with CDMA network types, so those builds might really bug out if you go into a low signal area. More so than normal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] julesism:
I'm on Chris123NT's 10/6 build and the low signal issues I was having seem to be gone. I have not noticed any issues on this build so I'll probably stay on it for a while.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jalewis:
I'm on the test build as well and lost data a few minutes ago. Toggled it and LTE came back immediately.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stealth111:
Yeah, 10/07 test build is a no go for sure. Last night I flashed back to August 9th build of Mastas unofficial, and I will say this 100% for sure, I am NOT seeing the data issue AT ALL. I went from extender to LTE to extender to 3g to LTE and everywhere in-between today numerous times, and it has been 100% flawless.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
This was merged on the 14th, which is right around the same time the issue started. Wonder if we've been barking up the wrong tree with telephony:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_hardware_ril/commit/ab77124dd9b8cf56e385710703af84f5d79736ff
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
I thought John reverted the ril back to the 4.3 merge or was it the SamsungQualcommril in telephony
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Exactly, he reverted telephony, don't think he reverted hardware_ril which is where that commit is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sivarticus85:
Will you be building one with that commit reverted? Or masta even?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Yeah I can do it if masta doesn't. Building for 2 devices now (d2 and jf) so if he doesn't do one with the revert I'll do one for you guys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mds96:
Thanks! Looking forward to testing either one!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Looks like you would need a flag in your configuration for those changes to be applied. So can test by adding that flag to your .mk
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
I had some IRL work to do this afternoon so wont be able to do a test build today. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Work? What is this work you speak of? :silly:

j/k, I know how that can be, pesky work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
10/08 build in the OP

-- removed the DSPManager cherrypick -- got merged

-- repo sync at 3:30PM EST
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Holding off on a test build for the moment, I think noobnl might be onto something, that something being the root cause of the problem, I'll run a test build as soon as he commits a patch.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iamrazor:
F5 F5 F5.... :derp:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stealth111:
Couldn't have said it any better myself!!! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
Having data hand off issues from wireless to 3g or LTE. The wireless doesn't let go so I have to toggle data to get phone data to work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
They're working on a new RIL branch, qcril (Qualcomm RIL)

Found this little gem in there:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/1fc4b8e7108d450bce836d5c846ebeceff6012ca

Think I may have to try this branch after work today.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
NO daily build today... but I do have something for you all to test :)

There is some new RIL stuff coming down so I have a couple builds that need testing..

http://truelinux.net/sch-i535/masta...cm-10.2-20131009-UNOFFICIAL-d2vzw-nopicks.zip --- this build is a straight build with my normal cherrypicks and the new RIL stuff.

http://truelinux.net/sch-i535/mastamoon/ROMs/test/newril/cm-10.2-20131009-UNOFFICIAL-d2vzw-picks.zip --- this build is a build with my normal cherrypicks, the new RIL stuff and some commits [MENTION=2682982]noobnl[/MENTION] wants tested.

Pick your poison and let us know how your phone behaves radio wise.

***WARNING***

After install you need to delete the telephony.db & mmssms.db(will lose your SMS/MMS's) located in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases and then reboot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] senorbuck:
Daaaaang! Flashed the second build (with noobnl stuffs) and after the reboot, LTE locked on much faster than it normally does. In the past, it would sit for 5-10s before it acquired that. That something to be expected with this build? I'm normally in pretty good coverage areas so that might be the extent of my testing :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
[MENTION=2963287]mastamoon[/MENTION] did you use the qril branch or did you pull the cherry-picks from the review ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Used the 12 qcril branches :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
12 branches ? Do you mean commits ? Or are there actually 12 repositories they are modifying at the moment
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/13144052/CM10_2/manifest.xml

DO a count on qcril :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
OK thanks :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dmginc:
How dirty is "dirty"? I format cache, dalvik, and system and then reinstall gapps when I install a new nightly. Will I lose them as well? No biggy if I do or don't.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mds96:
I clean flashed the noobnl picks zip and can also confirm a MUCH quicker initial LTE lock after boot! Hopefully soon I'll have some info about data handoffs! Thanks for building these test builds!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
Tried noobnl pics and SMS doesn't work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stealth111:
Did you delete the required 2 files as instructed and then reboot?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
That's dirty.. Clean = data wipe/factory reset.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
I clean flash every time so I didn't think I would need to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Hmm. Did you restore sms data by any chance?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sivarticus85:
I tried wiping system and reinstalling but it still fc. You have to delete those files to get it working without wiping data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
No but deleted those files anyway. Working now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Ok, maybe you have to do it regardless. Though doesn't make sense cuz a data wipe/factory reset should wipe those files.. I'll edit my post.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dmginc:
How do I get to /data/data? My only data folder is under /android/.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
It's from root. That's the path.. Need a root file explorer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dmginc:
Ah okay, makes sense. Thanks for responding to my moronic questions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] johnwaco:
SMS works for me on clean flash of build with noobln commits. Didn't delete any files
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SymbioticGenius:
Silly question cause I don't remember. Does wiping dalvik and cache wipe battery stats? I'm currently breaking in this zero lemon battery and would like to help you test, but I need to track this battery lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Well according to Stealth the handoff issue is fixed for him.

Gotta give him props for doing hotlaps around his neighborhood lol. Neighbors must have been like WTF is with this guy haha, we should letter his car "Official CyanogenMod Data Handoff Tester"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
DAT bumper sticker lol do you think every change including in frameworks/base is needed ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Yeah, there's dependencies all over the place, you need all the repos.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
XD
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zachf714:
Alright, gotta wait for it to get merged then (I'm messing with a bunch of different ROMs right now)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Noobnls patches don't seem to hurt but I wonder if they help, would be awesome if Mr. Stealth111 would do the same laps with my nopick build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stealth111:
Will do! Just got done playing Blacklight Retribution... Let me fire up the Official CM Pace Car!! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
After my initial issue LTE is strong. Even bouncing between 3g and LTE. Looks solid.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HandsomeOne:
Did clean Install with picks ,Data 1x, 3g &4g handoffs All working and switching, also wifi on and off data still switching fine.SMS is working here. I also tried on a S3 on pageplus and working great nice work Thank You !!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Just an FYI for everyone trying these builds who might want to keep their call history and SMS/MMS messages,

1. Get Helium from the play store and use it to backup Messaging Storage

2. Flash ROM

3. Delete the .db files in /data/data/com.android.providers.Telephony/databases

4. Reboot

5. Restore Messaging Storage through Helium

6. Profit!

:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lostwhat83:
Chris123NT: "Here's a build with a patch from noobnl in it, this *should* fix the CDMA issues (not connecting to 1x and some 3g etc....) Everyone test LTE hand-up as well please.

http://www.chris123nt.com/CM/cm-10.2-20131006-UNOFFICIAL-d2vzw.zip

Also included masta's latest list of cherry-picks."

I know this is a late reply but i have been running this build since the 6th. My data hand off issues are gone!

On my drive to/from work everyday I go from LTE 3G to no signal (always been that way with the no signal).

On this build the handoff with data was great not once did my Google music skip, stop loading. I never even had to toggle airplane mode or data on/off. I just wanted to let you guys know.

I haven't been on here since then so if the data handoff has been fixed.... My bad. ^_^
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mds96:
Well not sure if this is a good test because I've always had crappy signal strength in our bathroom, but I just checked it and had no data. Checked my status twice, once it said CDMA/EHRPD (I think, lol), second time CDMA/1x, but both said disconnected. Toggled wifi twice and data twice, and no change. This is with the Noobnl picks build :/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Was wifi on or off when you checked? Wifi on data will always be disconnected.

It could just be bad signal too, does data come back if you go to an area with better signal?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SymbioticGenius:
Tried both builds Masta posted. Dirty flashed and had com. Android. Phone crash repeatedly. The first time I could barely get to reboot. Gonna clean flash after nandroid and report back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
If it still happens after clean flash post a logcat.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daimerion:
No problems here. I'll be able to test handoffs tomorrow. Traveling to my school drops down to 3g and then finally 1X. Obviously the reverse on way home. I'll report tomorrow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenbrownstone:
My signal is better over all
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stealth111:
+1 ^^^ that

Sent using Tapatalk
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mds96:
Sorry it took so long to reply! Wifi was off when I checked it, but I think I'd have better luck getting a signal in the Sahara desert than in our bathroom, lol! This morning I watched instantly switch from 3g to LTE on the drive into work! So I'm just gonna chalk it up to very crappy signal at certain places in our house! I'll still keep an eye on it and report anything I find!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cynikalJ:
This is kind crazy but I have the same issue. Switched off great on the drive home. Got home went to take a shower and no data. Got out of the shower had a 3g connection. Just weird.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fromthesticks:
The past few days, since Fridays build, I've had to turn off lte. When I leave lte off my phone works as usual. Turn lte on and I have to constantly toggle data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Try the build without noobnl's picks and report back
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mds96:
Downloading now and will dirty flash it over the picks build. I'll probably have to report my findings later when I'm at home.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
That's fine, I'm just curious if his stubbed APN commit is screwing with 1x/3g
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dmginc:
I'm running noobnl's test build and have been experiencing nothing but positive things. Data hand offs are much quicker, phone locks onto LTE much quicker, both when coming from somewhere with no service and during boot.

On an unrelated note, my phone doesn't appear to go to sleep overnight. This has been happening for the past few weeks though, so not related to noobnl. Wifi stays on all night long, even though I have it set to only do so when plugged in. Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stealth111:
Have you tried the one of the test builds posted yesterday? I am sure you be quite pleased at the results! Please try and let us know!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daimerion:
Okay here is my report back on the noobnl test build that I said I would do today after traveling to school and back.

Data handoffs are even quicker than TouchWiz. Furthermore I actually pulled LTE where I would normally get 3G or 1x on touchwiz on the outer areas of lte.

Amazing!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stealth111:
EXACTLY what I am seeing, are you using the "PICKS" build or the "NO PICKS" build?

I think anyone reporting issues/success with these 2 test builds should make sure to specify the flavor they chose, so we can use that data to make some determinations of some other things being looked at, please! :)

Thanks for everyone taking the time to test these builds!

Thanks noobnl!!!! You are 2 for 2 so far on these big data bugs! (0dBm/99asu bug, now the LTE bug) :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daimerion:
The second one masta posted with the noobnl picks. I thought noobnl build in my post pointed that out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stealth111:
Yeah, coming from the back end of things, they both have noobnl fixes, 1 just has some additional picks, so I thought maybe you were running the straight noobnl build... Sorry! :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daimerion:
Oh OK. No biggie.

Loving it!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
10/10 build in the OP

-- Uses the new QCRIL branch for testing.

-- added a cherrypick for cLock weather tweak.. might have to tap to refresh on first boot.

-- reverted 2 merges that may interfere with getting a data connection if you boot with wifi on and connected to an extender

-- repo sync at 3:15PM EST

for anbody who hasnt used the build with qcril in it already, please see the red warning in the OP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sivarticus85:
I'm seeing some of the best battery life ever. I unplugged at 10:30 this morning and as of 4pm I'm at 79% with 37 minutes screen time, some game play, and a bunch of texting and emails.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenbrownstone:
I'm getting 95db were I usually got 105db...Thanks guys ...it's been so bad for me I haven't been using a lot of 4:3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
+1 to the +1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stealth111:
Man, I love my phone now!

FYI, a refresh didn't bring back my correct cLock, I had to go back into settings and re-setup my custom location, as it was set back to unknown. No Biggie.. :silly:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SymbioticGenius:
This is the signal I've been waiting for. I actually think this signal is better than I got on cleanrom (tw). I quite possibly have the worst story about my flashing and fixing my phone until about an hour ago. Dirty flash caused phone crashes, nandroid wouldn't restore properly. TiBu restoring apps caused crashes even without restoring data. I'm rolling on about two hours of sleep and all I can say is... IT WAS WORTH IT.

P. S. using noobl extra commit build and my problems we're likely due to improperly flashing nightlies for the past few weeks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
I had to toggle data today when I left work on my latest build. Had 3G when walking out of my building, I jumped to LTE when I left the parking lot, few seconds later had white signal bars with no data type icon. Waited about a minute for it to figure out what to do. It didn't. Toggled data and LTE connected right away.

:-\ :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
No! you take that back now! LOL :silly:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
I know! I haven't had this problem for ages. Figures a fix for some will end up breaking others.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] herooftimeloz:
Does com.android.phone ever stop crashing? It's difficult to go into a file explorer and deleting the files when the annoying error message pops up constantly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Haven't seen that? Are you flashing anything besides the rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] herooftimeloz:
Gapps, BMS kernel, NFC-enabled Google Wallet, and the GPE boot screen. Is this crash different from the one referenced in the OP?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Yeah. The Mms app just force closes when you open it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SymbioticGenius:
This is exactly what happened to me on about 20+ flashes from 9pm to 3 am this morning. I actually did the exact same thing except using ktoonsez kernel. Try a clean flash without the kernel. I'm running stock kernel and so far so good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dustbinge:
Wifi to LTE hand offs were terrible whenever I would leave work every day. With today's build, today was the first time in a long time that it actually worked smoothly, without the need to toggle data or go airplane mode. Thanks Masta and everyone who helped figure this out!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chris123NT:
Network extender issue is still eluding me. Reverted the noobnl picks and it's still doing it, grrrr
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Grrrr :-\
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TwistingSoul:
Every attempt to get the NFC-enabled GWallet has failed for me to get the tap to pay working.

Are you using the one that was referenced a few days (pages) back, or do you have another source/file you installed?

Edit: I've always run the stock kernel from these uploads of masta's. I've messed around with other kernels in the past, but the stock has always been a champ for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mds96:
Well I'm testing the bathroom signal again, this time on a dirty flash of the No Noobnl Picks build and I've been on LTE for five+ minutes and haven't lost it yet! Holding steady at one bar, so maybe the no picks build is the one to use, or I'm just luckier tonight! I may or may not flash the build from today, we'll see! Thanks to everyone involved!

Edit: It did struggle in our basement at -117 dBm 23 asu, but kept LTE and kept tryin to connect to the server! I was actually surprised that it didn't switch to 3g, 1x, or nothing, which is the norm! Hopefully it grabs LTE asa I turn off wifi!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] goatman101:
I am using the wallet app by prl91 in the themes and apps section of this forum. Select aosp and vzw, and the app does the rest. Once you get it all set up, you can go ahead and update wallet through the play store. You can then update your buildprop back to normal if you want.

Make sure you have no existing wallet traces on your phone before beginning this new installation.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zacharybinx34:
My phones data won't work at all. Getting the .com.android crash over and over. Running latest build of yours.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SymbioticGenius:
Same issue I had. Did you flash any kernel? Or any other zips?

Also anyone else have an issue with browser not syncing bookmarks?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zacharybinx34:
Nope.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rig24:
Got the same thing. Flashed back to 10/8 build and still no data. Making a backup now and will do a system wipe.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Div033:
Clean flashed 10/10 with no issues... Will report back if my basement kills my data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mds96:
Well I just watched the weirdest Data handoff ever, lol. This is still on the dirty flash of the No picks build over the Picks build. I had LTE when I first got down in the basement, I then watched it switch to 3g, and lose all data in a split second! After about 30 seconds with no connection, 3g came back with all gray bars and I was connected! :/ I guess that isn't exactly bad news, but I do have some good news! About an hour ago I took a trip out to the country and had LTE until I got into my Grandparents house and instantly switched to 3g. When I left it switched back to LTE with no lag! As I kept driving I had another flawless LTE/3g/LTE handoff. So it seems much improved and closer to perfection, for me anyway!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rig24:
Did a clean flash and instantly got data back...:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zacharybinx34:
What do you guys use to backup your data?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sivarticus85:
I use MyBackup Pro. It's paid but it backs up apps, data, SMS, MMS, and call logs among others. Love it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] titanshadow:
I'm running it right now with full tap to pay using Xposed framework and the Google Wallet fix. I had to configure it with the modified build.prop (which I had to edit further and delete all references to Verizon).

---------- Post added 11th October 2013 at 12:13 AM ---------- Previous post was 10th October 2013 at 11:18 PM ----------

I've been using Titanium Backup for ages but I'm always looking for something that is a bit more updated in terms of user interface and usability. Granted you can do ANYTHING pretty much with Titanium Backup with an incredibly fine granularity but all I really want to do is backup my app data to my SD card and to the cloud. And, I'd like to make sure the backup data is encrypted since my phone is encrypted I don't want any side-holes for breaking into the data.

I'm kinda trying out Helium right now but I'm not so sure about it - the interface is certainly prettier but I don't know if that translates well to better just yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Rig24:
Getting no data after every reboot, quick toggle fixes it. Handoffs seem better, but not great. Running 10/10, stock kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] khymbote:
This morning I turned airplane mode on as I was going to be working in a dead zone. Left that zone turned airplane mode off. Data wouldn't come back up til I toggled data on and off about 3 times and I know I was in LTE when I toggled.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] senorbuck:
Latest 10/10 build running great here!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fromthesticks:
Build 10/10 drove all the way in to work no data drops. Back and forth through lte to 3g.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WhammyDroid:
On 10/10 nightly, com.android.phone process constantly FC'ing. I could not get any data at all whatsoever. Radio was constantly cycling. Had to revert to an earlier nightly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mastamoon:
Stock kernel?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WhammyDroid:
Yes.
