Vodafone NL + Custom roms Incredible S - HTC Incredible S

Hi Peeps,
Can some explain to me why al the non sense custom roms won't have a internet connection with this device and vodafone NL?
I would really like to find a fix for this problem. I quote the maker of the cyanogenmod rom.
"I think part of the problem is the RIL we are using."
Could someone help me get this fixed?
thanx!

Good, then I am not the only one
I really want to use MIUI but the because it wont give me a data connection (3g,H,etc.) stops me from using it further
I checked the "Monitor" app pre-installed with MIUI, and changed some settings with the firewall and the statusbar displayed a 3G icon, but it still didnt work.

Curiously, does it work for other people running MIUI/CM7 on different phones who are on Vodafone NL? I'm trying to understand if it's the radio or something that stock Android doesn't have that Sense/other providers do have. I am pretty sure it would work even if you install ARHD and run the no sense script.
I don't think it's the sense. It's either the radio, ROM kernel (?) or some other config in stock that MIUI/CM7 are picking up that Sense might have overwritten.
It's interesting, really
Works fine for me on Vodafone India but yeah, that doesn't help you

Only one thing to add, Vodafone NL comes in 2 variations: Vodafone NL and Vodafone NL Business which uses a different APN. For me Vodafone NL has not worked on CM7 but Vodafone NL Business does work (due to the SIM having corporate contract I guess)

Hi john,
Thanx for looking into it, i have tried different radio's and roms. Its not the card itself because it works flaweless in the htc legend with cm7.
It must be something that connects the radio with the software.. the developer of cyanogenmod for the incredible S was talking about the RIL (Radio Interface Layer)
cince it's not only a CM 7 problem i guess it has to do with something all the rommakers are using.

serious *yawn* as i mentioned like dozens of time yes it is the ril and yes there is a version from cm for the vodafone nl users, ask attn1 (and no they dont know what it is or how it should be fixxed atm)
end of discussion

lol relax dude, i don't own a incredible S that long and couldn't find anything about it on XDA... After that i asked another dutch users but he didn't know why it was not working..
I created this topic so new users like me can find a answer why a custom rom is not working on their phone at this moment. Hopefully they will crack it.

it's okey problem is most people dont do the research and just start asking, but no biggy...
just do what ive told you before, im sure attn1 is willing to help when he has the time

This problem with the RIL is this just vodafone blocking some RIL or is er a functional problem with this RIL and the vodafone carrier?
I don't know what to do, i would realy like to use a miu of cm rom without the sense.
Can anyone give me a hand? or a push in the right direction?

its the ril that has an issue with vodafone duhh...
its like i said before there is an version from cm that works with it...
so yes other roms are possible also, how? erhm... read back...

sorry for asking but i can't find that build of CM7 not on their website nor on XDA Developers. I just want to know what to do myself to rebuild a rom and make the appropiate changes to the RIL so it wil work.

contact attn1 mate

i have did that multiple times but i get no responsse of attn1

i'll upload some this weekend (not 100% sure which one was it but im sure you can test that out ), i currently switched to kpn cause of some connection problems i was having where im stationed...

finally got time to work on this issue
latest cm7 nightlies (#95) should restore support for this kind of sim
let me know if it work

It works! You're a hero, finally CM on my IncS

Everytime i'm moving in The Hague, i lose my GSM and 3g signal.
Is that a known problem?? I am using Android Revolution HD 1.1.7
To get my signal back i have to go to airplane mode and then log in again with my pin.....

I have this issue on many custom roms on telus too.
how can you flash a new ril?

I'm dealing with the same error. the newest cm7 works fine. The revolution roms as well. (BTW I haven't noticed any issues in the Hague. as soon as 3g dropped all my colleague's 3g dropped as well on their Iphones.)
Unfortunately mobile network isn't working on most of the fancy 3.5 sense roms.
I posted about the vodafone issue in one of the sense 3.5 threads and got this reply as solution. Could anyone confirm whether these steps solved the problem?

Found this might help you
This is actually simple to fix. My girlfriends phone was doing this a bit ago. After a bit of tinkering I found this to work. 1. Shut down your phone 2. Carefully remove the battery cover and battery from the phone. 3. Using a toothpick or something similar, depress the clip holding the Verizon/vodafone sim card in place and remove the card. 4. Replace your battery and turn the phone back on. 5. Wait about a minute, the phone may display a message saying somehting along the lines of "no sim card found, switching to CDMA" or something similar. 6. Turn the phone back off, remove the battery and replace the sim card 7. Completely re-assemble the phone and turn it back on. 8. Your phone should now show that you have Verizon as your carrier and all your phones functions should be restored.
Hope this works as well for you guys as it did for me.
I assume this is some sort of error with the phone recognizing which network is its default carrier. I also assume that verizon has some ort of deal with vodafone, a carrier in the Netherlands, that allows some of there phones to access vodafones gsm network if the verizon customer happens to be travelling. That would explain why they have a vodafone sim card in some of these phones. from my HTC Incredible S using XDA App

[Q] HTC Hero Alaska Communications

I have rooted and succesfully backed up my original rom I am wandering since I use verizon networks will the roms for sprint be the wrong roms for my phone.I would like a rom that is stable and fast that will let me configure wap mms sms so that i can use my phone on Page Plus which is on verizon networks. THANX
I have been reading that the eris is basically the same phone different skin branded for verizon so will eris roms work on my phone. THANX
Also forgot to mention that my hero came from Alaska Communications Services. I dont know how much different the phone is from others but it looks just like the sprint phone. There website calls it a HERO 200. This should have been further up even though I put it in the header someone might get confused as to what I meant in the heading. I do know the htc sync is different the 1 for sprint would not work so I looked up there site and downloaded from there and it works great. THANX
Hmm seems no one knows or I asked a question no one wants to tackle.
since you backed up your stock rom.. why not just try an eris or a hero rom? whats the worst that could happen? it doesn't work and you restore?
it shouldnt matter what rom u use as long as its for the cdma hero, roms do not affect data unless it specifically says so.
So the rom only changes rom and nothing else. I have been reading on this for only a week and learning by the minute thankyou both for your reply.Beirce22 I noticed you are using cyanogen 7.1 does everything like camera, gps, etc work well for you and how fast is it im ready to start my first rom flash. THANX
yes cyanogen is very stable its been my daily for about a week now and everything works as far as i know.

[Q] Dual Sim for O2X

Hi all,
does anyone know if exists an adapter to make O2X dual SIM. It would be GREAT because i have a personal mobile (O2X) and a mobile for my work and i would like to use the two SIM card in the same mobile.
Thanks by advance for your answers
The dual sim converters at ebay will work, since it does for my spica.
do you still have the link to the object please?
nobody ? please some answers
Did you try search for it at ebay?
Sent from my Optimus 2X using xda premium
yes but it gives me nothing
Never tried but is it that ?
http://www.redferret.net/?p=10340
None of the adapters will work with any 3g networks so if your network only does 3g and up forget about it.
There are lots here. 3G is working too. But only 1 sim is active.
http://shop.ebay.com.au/i.html?_nkw=dual+sim+adapter
Hi.
I´m from Germany and I had the same problem (two SIM, one privat and one for work). I bought a digital dual-SIM-adapter from g-telware (just search for it on google). This one is working pretty well. The SIM from my employment/work is a twin-bill, so I´m able to use and switch 3 Numbers (two on twin-bill-card and one on privat) via STK-App.
Unfortunately it only works with the Stock-ROM or a MoDaCo-based Rom. On CM7-based ROMs I have the problem, that switching between the SIM-Cards ends in an error massage saying like "We are sorry! The application com.phone.android isn´t working any more. Please try again later." (translated from German, I think the English massage should sound different).
Anyway, I don´t really think, that this is a problem of the adapter then a problem of the phone-apk used in CM7. Noone was able to tell me, how to solve that problem or why it happens, so I´m back to Stock-ROM.
Maybe someone here (for example some expert ) could have an solvation to that problem?
Big thanks for this good answer. I found g-telware website. But there are many SIM Card. Do you remember which one you buy?
I search a "no cut" adapter. If possible that is compatible with UMTS/HSPDA.
For your problem, maybe you can try to take phone.apk from Stock Rom and replace it in CM7. Or better, you can wait gingerbread update, i saw on another thread that it is scheduled in 15 days.
Thanks by advance

I´ve chosen the GDSA3G (search for "Art.Nr."). I tryed the GDS16th-A before, because I baught a Samsung Wave before. That one doesn´t work correctly in P990.
The phone.apk is not replaceable in a common way. I tried that with root explorer app, the phone.apk crashed.
So I will have to wait for the Update, but I doubt, that it´ll be released in 15 days. On the other hand, I´m of the opinion, that there has to be an explainable (and much more changeable) reason for that error in CM7. The only thing might be, that such a constellation like a dual-SIM-adapter is very rare, so that no one has ever thought about it (unfortunately).
Ok, i watched GDSA3G on the website. Can you confirm that you have to cut the sim cards ?

Solution for phone.apk crash?
Just want to mention, that I did a call forwarding from the "work" SIM-card to my private SIM. So people can call me at any time. In that case you should ask your employer, if there will be any costs doing this (in my case it doesn´t matter, because both SIMs are Telekom).
I´m still dissatisfied with the crashing of the phone.apk. Maybe one of the moderators could make this problem official?
Any help?

Dual SIM on CM or MIUI build ROM
Hey Guy`s!
Already investigated a little in the above mentioned and apparently there`s no big shot at this issue within CM or MIUI Community! I know there`s one guy got it running with his own efforts on CM, don`t know about MIUI. I`m using MAGICCARD 3G, it`s a china made digital cut adapter which works flawlessley on all froyo and gingerbread builds with STK.apk. No probs here with battery issues or disconnects or whatsoever, just fine. Heard that it should work with it`s built-in 007 mode (switching by dialing 001/002) in CM builds, never tested it myself though. Probably I´ll give it a try the next days!
Regards BG1
Also got it running flawlessly here. Dual sim 28th gen Plus cut from www.magic-sim.com

Mobile data connection drop issue and Gmail issue AGAIN post 8107

Hey guys hav u ever experienced issue like dis:
Mobile internet connection drop and unable to got online or using web browser etc.
It cannot be fixed w/ rebooting.
Now it seems i can use disable/reenable 3G/3G switch and turn on/off 3g connection several time to make this work.
But it is still annoying
Any idea how to fix it?
Im using the latest firmware, radio, stuff: 11.11.1
btw the gmail search doesnt work either after 8107 update which said by MSFT wud fix this issue, any1 hav the same issue?
I can't find the switch 2g/3g switch!? lol
Don't have any other issues though!
Omnia 7 - originally on T mobile but now using unbranded ROM on Three.
Same problem here. The gmail search on server bug is really annoying!
I'm having the same problem as of today, my mobile data connection has dropped. I've tried rebooting, switching to airplane mode, re-enabling/disabling 3G/E multiple times. But the issue remains.
On proximus (belgium) with DFT rom
- Use the Diagnosis app
-Open up the Diagnosis app.
-Dial this (to enable autoconfigure sim setting): *#94765#
-It will ask you to restart the device. Confirm that.
Same problem here too. I was afraid it was my device..now i see almost all omnia 7's got this problem. No fix from samsung. Nice.
I've had issues with this for months. In fact since upgrading to Mango.
It's not hardware as I now have a warranty replacement and this one has the problem too. My sister also had hers replaced under warranty for the same issue and the issue remains for hers too.
I started a MS Answers thread months back but MS have ignored it... may as well add your voices though. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/winphone/forum/wp7-wppics/data-connection-problem-since-mango-update/1544a63f-7bf0-43fa-837c-7e89f10b86ab

Can anyone confirm/unconfirm if this works? Getting really sick of this now. Restarting was fixing it, but now nothing. I'll add my views to your thread.
Had the data issue for months, it was so bad i stooped using the device.
Then as in old windows mobile i decided to flash another rom witch included another radio from another carrier, in this case a french one, well it did work ,then i could use the phone everywhere.
I cant tell you the rom version at the moment because i got a test roam loaded, but i can certainly find out later.
edit..
The rom was Mango fro sfr france.
you mean that flashing another rom fixed ur problem?
Can u post a link to the rom itself, please?

Before that i could not do anything over 2/3g.
Now it works just fine.
One thing i remember, the device will boot in French, but you can change to English after in the control panel.
Before doing anything make a Device backup!

my radio hardware version is 0.0.0.800

[Q] No reception whatsoever!

I'm having this weird issue with my galaxy s. The weird part is that over the last couple of weeks, reception has been zero in a period of time that's been steadily increasing. I've been able to restart the phone to fix it, until yesterday when I couldn't get any reception at all.
But wait, there's more! My sim card works in my girlfriends gs2, her sim card works fine in mine. So, it's only the combination of my sim card and my phone that gives me no reception at all. Also, what could be causing reception to steadily degrade to the point of none at all?
I'm running the team icsgs rc 4.2 with semaphore kernel, but I couldn't post in that thread because of my low post count. So, what I'm thinking is that I should try another modem before I try to wipe and perhaps install another rom. My question is, do I have to use Odin to flash a new modem, or can I just use cwm? Anybody have a suggestion for a particular modem?
So, Ive flashed the KF1 nexus modem, no change at all..
The only thing I haven't tried now is going back to stock rom... Anyone?
I have problems with Nexus S modems (that are so popular last weeks). For me the best modem is original JVU (the CM version). Try with that modem (if not with it already).
Try with the original build, because that reminds me for a hardware problem. You can debug the problem with experiments. Try everything before going to service.
No EDGE/GPRS signal
Hi!
Because I cannot post in development section, I'm putting this here...
Last week I've tried 9 ROMs and different modems and the problem was always the same...
When I'm on UMTS/HSDPA signal, everything works great, but when I'm on EDGE/GPRS signal, I cannot even make a call, or send a message.
This problem is happening to me for the last two weeks... :-(
ROMs tried: teamhacksung's CM9 ALPHA for Galaxy S (BUILD 17, 16), Team ICSSGS RC4.2, AOKP Milestone 4, Build 28 (now using), Dark Knight 3, 4, Elite V9.0
Kernels: Semaphore ICS 0.9.5b, Devil Skorpion Kernel, Midnight ICS 0.9.0-2-HUGERAM (now using), and the ones which comes with ROMs
Modems: XXJVU, XXJVT, XXKF1, XXKD1, XXKB3, AUCKF1, XXJVK, XXJVO and now I'm using XXJW4
When I flash DarkyROM JVU-RE with Odin everything works fine. :-S
So.... I think the problem could be in the ICS ROMs or kernels
If anyone knows how to solve this problem with 2G networks, I would be very grateful.
p.s.
Also, I find my SGS very often bootloop without possibility to enter CWM when I'm flashing new ROM.
And I found a solution for those bootloops, because I'm tired of flashing with ODIN a new GB ROM constantly... after bootloop, I use FixRecovery and flash it with Odin, then enter CWM and install Team ISCSGS RC 4.2 which only starts and make boot image and flash new CWM, so I can flash other ICS ROMs...
Why I'm telling this? - only because the devs could see if they can make other ROMs to start with flashing like Team ICSSGS RC4.2.
Sorry for my bad English. :-$
Edit: @adytum
I have also thought that my SIM card was a problem, so I've exchanged it. Didn't help....
At first the problem was like yours...
Will attempt to install the original stock firmware today (boooo, downgrading from ICS ), but I have my doubts. My service provider have started technical problemshooting at their end, but I have my doubts there too.
To add to the confusion, I discovered that 3g and data traffic works fine, wireless works fine, but calling doesnt work at all. As mentioned, if I put my sim in an other phone, or another sim in my phone, it always works.
I just managed to make it work. In test settings, INFO part (*#*#4636#*#*), after 5 times setting WCDMA only, my phone works only on 3G networks and now I can communicate because it doesn't switch to 2G...
But, I would appreciate if anyone find out solution for problem with 2G.
I hope that this isn't problem with my phone.
As far as your problem, I would try to reinstal the modem, because after trying a lot of new ones, sometimes it just doesn't recognise which one is instaled. JW4 seems the best for me...
Sorry for my bad English... :-(

If I could hug you, I would! This modem seems to have solved all my issues! So, yes, our problems are probably related to eachother and to ICS. Never got around to try stock or darkys rom, but I'm guessing that would have fixed my signal issues too.
A million thanks to you! (Now I'm just crossing my fingers for stability and that this is not a fluke!)
Well, I'm glad to see that it works...
For me, JW4 have the best signal, and is very stable. And, you know, I've tried almost all other modems, and they were all pretty much the same.
I wouldn't tell you about that modem if I haven't seen that I have HSDPA reception (-95dBm) in the places where I had very poor 2G signal (-103dBm) , and no 3G signal (-111dBm) at all before.
Sorry for my bad English....
Have you tried if other sim cards work in your phone, or your sim card works in other phones? If so, I'm thinking that these issues have something to do with the service providers not being up to date regarding newer android versions. That's really the only logical conclusion I can draw.
I did call my service provider earlier today, they were as stumped as I am, but did suggest to try connecting with 2g and 3g enabled respectively.
By the way, your english is just fine
Well, I was working as tech support at my provider (until last month), so everything is fine with network and signal.
Also, first thing I did was to check SIM card and it is OK. I even exchange my SIM because it was 5 years old -just in case...
Everything works great in other phones, but in my phone only 2G network reception doesn't- even with other SIM cards...
That is very weird, but, I finally managed to set only 3G so, everything works now, but with very poor signal in places where I had EDGE coverage before.
I even thought that could be a problem with my device, but when I flash GB ROM, everything works, so I'm thinking that it only could be a bug in kernel or ROM.
I didn't see much people complaining about this, maybe only because they are constantly on 3G...
I don't know...

And...
Btw, service providers have nothing to update or upgrade with signal, because it is only frequencies they have to maintain and base cell as root. That's why we use SIM card which help our phones decode signal.
Only thing that is up to providers is maintaining the level of signal and its communication with central station, along with base overload in urban areas.
Sadly,
In 98% of problems, it is up to SIM card, device or software on it.
When the problem is up to service provider, everyone in that region- on the same base cells, have it. :-(
So, obviously it can only be ROM/kernel problem or device(hardware) problem. :-(((
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA
Obviously the main difference here is that the only thing that ruined reception for me was the combination of my sim card and my phone, every other sim and phone combination worked.
You probably have more extensive knowledge about this than I do, and you're probably right inducing that it is a rom or kernel bug.
In that case, there are two options;
Maybe SIM card didn't set well, or SIM card is damaged.
You can try to see if it is damaged or has something on it and clean it. Otherwise, if it is damaged or just won't work, go and exchange it. It takes just a 5 min. And if you tell that SIM stopped working, they won't charge you anything. And, after that, you'll be sure that SIM works.
It also happened to me in the begining, and I was wondering why my SIM won't work only in my phone. Then, I place it in my old Nokia and after 2 days, I couldn't talk with people and the signal was OK. Then I exchanged it, and everything was OK.
Now, obviously I have a problem with a phone. :-(
Maybe it is a message to me to buy a new one... Note, maybe... ;-)
Anyway, I hope that I've helped you.

Seems I was a little too quick. Problems started again today, but I've managed to fix it for now..
I installed jvu from odin as per the first post in the elite, ICS beta 8 thread. Found that everything worked fine in jvu, and now it also works fine in ICS.

Losing 3G Mobile Network on certain location

Hi Experts out there,
I have been having 3G mobile network issue with CM7 base ROM. On certain location, I cannot download and make or receive calls. my 3G icon arrows show upload activities but no download happening. My ISP name (Maxis Malaysia) showing as normal. I upgraded to CM7.2, tried Kang ROM, preshoot kernel and change new SIM card but doesn't help.
Disable and Enable the 2G only a few times might resolve the problem for a while. The may come back again as long as I am still at the same locations.
Anyone has any ideas on this problem? ROM or Kernel issue? Recommendations on solutions? Thank you.

It's not the phone. It's signal coverage that you're having problem. Try another location and see if that helps.
I have been getting full bar signal strength on the icon. If connected (after a few tries of enable / dissable 2G only), the connection will be good for a while (some time quite ok for hour). The connection on 2G is 100% stable and reliable. If 3G is weak, it should automatically switch to 2G without issue right?
Thank you for the reply.

No. The problem could be with internet access of the specific UMTS base station that you're connecting to at that spot, and not with the connectivity between your phone and the tower. In any case, it's not your phone, it's the base station, and there's nothing you can do but complain to your cellular carrier.
I have checked with friends (iPhone, Android, BB,etc) surrounding me on the same location, no one is complaining the same problem. That lead me to confirm that its my N1. The worst part is I cannot make or receive calls. I have been missing many important calls...

When did you have this problem? After or before you updated to the latest version of CM7.2? If after then I suggest you do a full wipe and format system and then reflash the ROM. Or you could try to flash a standalone kernel and see if that helps.

I have been having this problem for many months. Since I rooted my N1 using CM 7.1.

Another option would be to flash a different radio. Try to read the radio section on Nexus One thread for more information
I just flash MIUI ROM and will put it to test tomorrow. Hopefully it will be fine. If not, will try to flash different radio. Thank you for all the replies.

Here's a couple solutions:
1) Go to settings>wireless>mobile networks >access point names. Look and see if an option called "Simple" is ticked. If it is, tick your network name instead of Simple. For example, for me, I have T-Mobile; so I have T-Mo ticked and not Simple.
2) Try flashing a new radio or ROM. I highly doubt this is your problem but it is worth a try. Try the .08 version radio or the .12, whichever you don't have.
3) Go to your carrier's store and see if you can get a replacement SIM card. I did this once and they gave me one for free. Just say you are having connection problems and you think your SIM is cutting out. My N1 once fried a SIM card. Just re-read post and seen that you did this. I would highly suggest you try my first option as I had a very similar problem and solved it that way.

SORRY IM HAPPY CAUSE THIS DOES WORK EVERYTIME DANG T-MOBILE GET AT&T TOWERS btw HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE leave me a egg
I have tried MIUI ROM and latest Radio (5.12) for passed few days. The problem still remain.
The new radio giving more stable 3G connection many locations but lost 3G connection on the previous problematic locations.
Really not sure what to do with it now. I have tried everything that is known on the web.

There's nothing you can do. It's between your phone and local base station.
You didn't listen to me earlier, I guess now you will.
It is sad that nothing can be done. The phone should at least switch to 2G when 3G is not available, but my N1 stuck there causing me loosing voice and SMS capabilities. This is fundamentally wrong on the phone.
