still no mobile data do you think i could have flashed wrong this was my first flash away from CM-nightly
No. Rom doesn't make any difference. There has to be something wrong in your apn settings. Check the op of this thread under stock apn and double check what you've got. If you still can't get it, post a couple screen shots of your apn settings and I'll see if you've missed something. Remember that capitalization and spaces matter and don't forget you must hit the menu soft key and select save before backing out of the apn settings page.

Net10 apn

Thanks for all your work, Mr. Cook.

I'm using the Net10 version of the phone, and I've found that everything here I've tried seems to be just as applicable except that the APN is different.

For anyone else who may need it, here is the APN as it appeared on the Net10 SGH-S959G - GB 2.3.6 stock

APN Info

Name
AT&T MVNO

APN
wap.tracfone

Proxy
att2.tracfone.com

Port
80

Username
<Not set>

Password
<Not set>

Server
<Not set>

MMSC
httpCOLON//mmscDOTcingularDOTcom

MMS proxy
att2.tracfone.com

MMS port
80

MCC
310

MNC
410

Authentication type

APN type
internet + mms + supl

( : & . spelled out on MMSC line because of link restriction)


to use it on the JB 4.1.2 COOKED ROM, I had to change the APN type line to:
internet,mms,supl

Camera is broke again? No idea why it stopped working again. Noticed it last night about 2 hours after it was working. After it was working all I used was MX video player, internet and Facebook app. Another possible cause is the charger I use overnight. It's an LG charger into a wall outlet. Could this be it? I been using it forever so don't know why it would screw up the camera months later all a sudden. When I get home later I am gonna do a full wipe again. Reinstall SS3 and AJK 4.7ms kernel. If it works again after reinstall... gonna go very slowly from there to see if I can narrow it down.

(Edited to make sense. Originally sent from my phone and that damm Swype!)

I suppose it could be the charger... Try and get a Samsung charger. Keep us posted on how it turns out.

You aren't messing with any voltages are you?

So I just wiped the phone and reinstalled JUST Shostock3.0.2 and the camera worked. Hooked it up to LG wall charger and BOOM...Camera Failed! Wiped again, reinstalled SS3, camera works. A few minutes later, I got the OEM Samsung wall charger plug and USB cable.... before I plugged it in, I checked the camera... Camera Failed!!!! It was a matter of 5-10 minutes. I give up.....

I am a bit bored and maybe someone else is too. Brain storming time! This camera is driving me crazy!

If the camera works sometimes, but usually not... why? Hardware or software?
After a fresh reinstall of a ROM, it works most of the time BUT for only a little while then crashes itself in the background while not even using the phone.
Is there some kind of camera.apk thats Version number is higher than 1.5? (thats what my version number is) And in the all apps page, there is never any cache to clear for the camera? (only 8kb of data which is the help screen when you first launch the camera) Is that normal?

I've actually given your problem a lot of thought. At first it seems like a hardware problem but the fact that it works fine for a little while then goes haywire makes me think... Could it be a voltage problem?

In stweaks there is CPU voltages and GPU voltages. Have you tried bumping these up, say all frequencies +1 step in voltage??? I mean I'm really just brainstorming here. I honestly have no idea if this will have any effect at all. What i do know is that if i over clock this phone at all it will make lines in my camera pics. Not really so much lines but vertical stripes of discoloration...
I will try to find out more about this. Try googling CPU/GPU voltages and picture quality in Samsung devices.

I've already tried stock APN as per OPs instructions, but I might just try reflashing and stock APN again.

Sent from my SGH-i777 using xda app-developers app
like i said when i first flashed to pac i had allot of problems i couldn't even add or EDIT APN idk what happend but i reflashed and all issues solved im not sure exactly why but the reflash worked for me but.. after i got tired of things not working i just reread the OP and made sure to flash reboot recovery flash reboot recovery flash gapps ect... please follow the instructions i think that may have been my issue (DIRTY FLASH) ..so after i got it working on my daily driver i then put it on my girlfriends phone the funny thing was i did her flash with no issues .. if you need any more help im glad to help as much as i can so heres what i have APN and File List

**(ADDED)**and i also deleted the other APN settings only leaving the Straight Talk APN..idk if your supposed to leave those on but i think it might be easier on the phone if their is only one option for APN settings

ROM.....pac_i777-nightly-20130915.zip
