Android version: 2.2
Baseband version: 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.12_7
Kernel version: 2.6.34-cyanogenmod
Build number: FRF91
I got the phone as an official, locked, unrooted FRF85B. The GPS did not work. I went through these steps, in order, to test if the GPS would acquire a single satellite with no success at any:
FRF85B
FRF91
*unlocked phone*
EPE76
FRF85B
FRF91 rooted
FRF91 with Cyanogenmod
I have factory reset a total of about 15 times at different stages with no luck. Tried my SIM in a MyTouch3G and it acquires about 12 satellites right away.
What the hell is wrong with my phone
If your phone simply hasn't had any successful GPS connections since you've had it then it could be a hardware fault. Try getting in touch with HTC.
Okay now my GPS works fine.
Didn't work for 4 days straight, and now it's fine. :X
Sometimes it takes a while to sync up with the satellite, but 4 days is weird.

What does a SIM card have to do with the GPS?
I had read on another thread somewhere that someone was having problem getting a GPS signal and that replacing their SIM card fixed it. I call shenanigans but I was desperate for a solution, so I tried it in another phone and it worked.
In any case, for unknown reasons, my Nexus One is now fixed.

Hi Guys,
I have my Milestone since january 2010, it's no rooted yet. a few weeks ago wifi function don't work very well. Some times works and always show me the icon connected on the phone, I have to restart the phone many time to fix de problem. Finally I had Factory data Reset and the same problem comes out in a few days.
And Also when wifi work the program like voicememo say "Memory card not preset. Please insert card" but when wifi don't work I can get access to the SD card. is wear.
So I want to know if I root my phone with the last firmware like froyo 2.2 fix the problem.
Thanks so much for your time

Installed cyanogen 6.1 on a G1 I just acquired at no cost but now can't setup my "google account" errors out about not being able to find reliable data network.
Initially I had wiped the phone with the stock ROM and was able to do the initial sign-up of the google account and tested the android market without much of a problem.
After alot of reading, root and learning about Android via a crash course. I was able to sucessfully install cyanogen 6.1 but now I can't setup the phone.
I thought that my trial and error method of getting things working may have caused the problem so I did a complete wipe and started from scratch (minus the error) once more to make sure everything was good. But still no go on setting the google account.
Yes, I do have a dataplan as I was using an HTC TouchPro2 before this.
Any ideas?
SPL: HDBOOT - 1.33.0013d
Radio: 2.22.28.25
ROM: update-cm-6.1.0-DS-2708port_S, gapps-mdpi-tiny20101020-signed.
At the Google Sign-in screen, hit menu, APN, enter your APN.
There should be a skip option on CM anyway.
APN looks correct. I'm able to skip the sign-up but I can't access anything that requires net access. No android market; no browser...nothing.
Did you flash gapps after flashing the rom? Not all roms come pre-installed with gapps.
Sent from my HTC Dream using XDA App
Yes, I installed gapps-mdpi-tiny20101020-signed
dump a logcat using adb during boot process perhaps?
or try checking the SIM with another phone. similar thing happened to me once-upon-a-time, and apparently it was the SIM and not the phone *doh*
I had the same problem but when i reboot the phone the problem is solved for some time ( 1 a 2 hours) so i have to reboot my phone a lot.
im having the same problem with cm6. i have tried going to biffmod and get the same problem and data is turmed on.
Yep, tried another mod same issue; also went as far as to unroot it and problem still exists.
Does anyone know if the Radio firmware could be the potential culprit?
SIM card works fine on my HTC TouchPro2...running android
Try a diff radio perhaps, not sure if thats the issue.
It has got to be the APN... Do you get a G/E/3G icon?
Just wanted to updated that I have now been able to successfully get CM 6.1.0 working on the G1. Seems that it all came together once I received my G2 and my data plan was changed.
Yay!!
I have an SCH-i800 that I have CM9 (p1c 9.1.0) installed on. I have been using it for several weeks with no problem. Since I am planning on going on a trip, I decided to active pre-paid Verizon service for the tablet. At first, I attempted to activate the device. It went through the phone call but after a minute, it just sat at activating. That is when I noticed that the radio state in the status bar had an X on it. I rebooted the tablet to try again and got "com.android.phone has topped unexpectedly". I re-flashed CM9 (at the time I was using 9.0.0) and it worked again. Activation was not necessary. After a day, the error came up again and radio state went to off with an X. I tried 9.1.0, same problem after a day. I even tried a nightly CM10, same problem. Reboots, cache wipes, permission fixes do not make it work. The error persists until a re-flash of CM. I see on the Support Downloads for the Verizon Tablet, there are two modem files. My baseband version is currently S:I800.0.3V.EI04. I have attempted to "flash" these both via Odin (which failed after a couple minutes) and ZIP (which looked like it worked) to the EC02 on the site, but my baseband doesn't seem to change.
So my first question is, is there a how-to on flashing as I have searched high and low on one for the Verizon Tab specifically, and have yet to find one. Is there a ZIP file that is specifically meant for the i800? I am almost certain this is my problem and that a downgrade (this tablet when stock was updated to the latest Verizon image).
My second question is, has anyone else experienced this? Is there someone that is using a CM9 Verizon tab with EI04 baseband and not have this problem?
Is there a way I can track down what crashed the program? I have tried logcat, but it doesn't appear to give me much detail other than to tell me that it stopped.
And if you ask, no I did not use the Verizon service with this tablet before putting CM9 on it, so I wouldn't know if it worked before.
Any input that someone could provide would be useful. Thanks!
I have a p925g, unlocked but originally from rogers canada. Using it on Koodo. It had a funky digitizer so i replaced it, (ghost touches only half screen responded). All good right? No. Phone works fine for about 2 minutes then loses connection. Does not get it back ever.
Try the simple stuff first, factory reset, Ensure sim is properly inserted, manual APN entry for koodo. reboot. no signal.
Use lg software, upgrade to 4.0.4, factory reset. Yay! SIM works, for two minutes. never again.
Root using wpark method, install CWM, then xbsalls rom, xbsav8, factory reset, Yay! SIM works, for two minutes. never again.
Change 5 different basebands, nothing, use getRiL, error everytime (RiL and baseband dont match).
Flash back to stock froyo redo stock bootloader etc.Yay! SIM works, for two minutes. never again.
Upgrade back to stock ics, same thing
I'm sensing a pattern here. After about 90-120 seconds the signal DbA drops out and I lose all connection to the network no matter what ROM I use and it's the same thing every time. I get "reorganizing internal processes- please try again shortly" for about 30 seconds, then I can make and receive calls and mssgs, then it drops off and wont work again until i re-install the rom (any rom)
My question is, has anyone heard of this before? Could it be my SIM? Or hardware?
Thanks for any help.
managed to do getRiL while I had a signal. screenshot attached.
Hey guys,
in the beginning, sorry for my bad english (native german). I have a problem with my I9295 aka S4 Active. Since the update to 4.4.2, my phone gets thrown out of the network. Wlan and Bluetooth is fine. Now I flashed the official Samsung DOB4 firmware. Yes, I've downloaded the file multiple times, and the md5 sum was always right. After I flashed it, I was very happy because my cellular network was working again, I could make some calls, etc. But after 20 minutes, it started again. No network. Well, my IMEI was null, and to fix it I had to root. After rooting, my IMEI is there again (yes, the right one) and everything worked fine and was still working, up to yesterday. IMEI still there, baseband too, everything seems fine, but I can't get network. I have to reboot multiple times to get it working again, after that it's working maximum a day, after that, no network again . Atm, i've flashed CM12, but the error is still occuring. I'm very desperate, I hope somebody can help me.
I have a quite similar problem:
My I9295 loses service randomly. Happens quite often.
When I try to go to Settings/More Networks/Mobile Networks I am told "No SIM ..."
SIM is in and had been active. Phono tells me I have network reception.
After reboot it works for an hour or 20 minutes or whatever it wants to.
Sometimes it reconnects after a while, sometimes not.
When I leave it on during night netx morning reconnect works only via reboot.
SIM reader had been replaced.
Problem persists with genuine 5.0.1, with this one: [ROM][Official Nightly CM12/Unofficial CM12.1][5.0/5.1.1] builds for I9295
and WizCyan ROM.
Any suggestions?
BTW I use a TWRP recovery
Possible reason explained here

Enjoy
Thanks for the hint.
Not sure if I get this. The problem was also there with the genuine Samsung ROM (lolipop)while the thread talks aout losing modem function after flashing custom ROM.
About previous I am not sure as I bought it used with 4.2.2 on it.
I updated to 4.4 and then 5 OTA, all genuine.
Only because the mobile kept on losing network I switched to custom ROM, but the problem persists.
At the moment I use the Pac-Man ROM 5.1.1 where it seems to be more stable.
Strange!
@augek
The linked thread isn't only about custom roms - you can end up with partly flashed baseband on genuine if you don't power off before download mode and flash using Odin.
Was the replacement job of SIM reader done by a qualified person?
Following your Suggestion i flashed the genuine lollipop with odin. Yes i switched of Prior to flashing.
And Yes the Person Who did the card reader Job is qualified.
Still the Problem persists.
So to me the question is if the Firmware (driver) is the Problem of my sim card. The sim i tried on my s4mini and doesn't cause Problems so far as far as i noticed.
P****es me of somehow.
