Signal issues?

I regret that my first post here was asking for help rather than being a contribution but I'm stuck. I've been using my Hero since January, flashed a custom firmware day 2 (FreshROM) and it was fine back then, ever since though my connection, throughout the county, has been on a downhill slope...
Sprint customer service hasn't helped at all, got a single email reply and haven't been contacted since. I can't tell if it's an issue with Sprint or my phone though I'm starting to think it's the former, everyone I know with Sprint seems to be having problems lately...My particular problem is bad signal, I use to be pulling ~90dbm at all times, now I'm lucky to see a minimum of 98. Running speedtest (ookla) I can barely pull twice dialup speeds, though on occasion it runs ~120 kb/s (about normal out here, though pathetically below advertised speeds) and sometimes it just randomly drops into/sticks as 1x (even outside of the BestBuy I bought my phone from where I had full bars and definitely EvDo)
Currently running DarchDroid 2.7, PRL 60667 (I've tried all since 60663+), I don't know if it could be a PRI issue, I can't see PRI while using DarchDroid though I believe I'm running Flipz' custom PRI he put out after the leaked eris issues with 2.1 roms...
Suggestions? Further information I can provide?

Same problem here. Stuck in 1x, wireless also not connecting properly, voice signal minimal even sitting right next to my femtocell. Darch 2.7 only rom so far that keeps me on Sprint's network at all, others send me into roaming. I've tried Damagecontrol 2.0.9 (boot loops, kills SD), DamageR (roaming signal, frequent FC) Fresh 2.3.3 (roaming signal) and Aloysius 2.1.2 (roaming signal only)
Wireless not connecting with any of them. Any tips/fixes would be greatly appreciated

Forgot to mention, yes have also tried various basebands. Running the ancient stock seems to provide a minor boost.

I kept playing with this one, eventually broke the data connection altogether. Stuck in roaming unless using darchdroid. Took it to sprint store, they said once struck in roaming, no fix. They're replacing phone tomorrow

Thy the VZW PRL. It's here and in the EVO forum somewhere. I like it for my work and at the campground but here at home Im stuck with crappy signal because it wont work with the sprint airave. Im trying to talk my neighbor into buying a VZW one and putting it in my house. They don't have internet and use my WIFI so I think its a win win. For now I swap back to sprint on the weekends we are at home.

If you're using a custom rom, try rebooting into Recovery and wiping the Dalvik cache.
I had the same 'stuck in 1x' issue after trying to update my profile/PRL today, nothing I did seemed to make any difference, and when I did connect to EVDO my voice signal would drop out to, literally, 0.
Wiping the dalvik cache seems to have fixed it entirely - am now on the 60668 PRL (must've just come out today) and my signal is right where it should be, both EVDO and voice.

I've done entire wipes both factory resets as well as Davlik cache
I've tried both the verizon PRLs as well as the verizon baseband from flipz
I also managed to break my data connection at one point, eventually fixed it by driving out to where I had signal after doing the PRI reset thingy posted after the leaked Eris PRI issues. Tried the new *68 PRL as well when I finally had signal again, didn't seem to help at all, currently have no signal at my home at all anymore regardless of what I'm running, flashed back to an old FreshROM still on 1.5 so I can manually change PRLs, nothing seems to be working at all...
I'm likely to just run the new RUU to unroot and take the phone in demanding a fix, service seems to have just taken a hit out here period, weak connection at my gf's apartment, and she's now having issues even sending texts, seems like a network issue more than a phone issue at this point (she's using a Rumor Touch, not a Hero) also stuck on 1x (but amazingly not roaming) out here, but better than the no signal at my home :/

Help! I found this treadz by searching i bought the new iphone 4 and i have no signal when i hold the phonez.
I was hoping for a fix from apple and steve jobs said i was holding it wrong.
Thx any helpz would be awesomez

[Q] No 3g

So I am already on my second Bionic after the first one stopped working (completely stock btw.) Just picked up the second one yesterday and have not been able to connect to 3G at all for the last 3 hours. I have done 5 battery pulls, toggled airplane mode more times than I can count, switched between CDMA only and LTE a handful of times and not even once has the 3g symbol appeared at the top. Just the phone signal and when I reboot it a triangle for a few second where the 3g symbol is supposed to be. Any ideas? If nothing else I am bringing this one back after work too and reverting to the D1 until something else comes out.

This appears to be a common problem with the Bionic. I am suffering from the same thing and getting ready to take mine back also, but I dont think it will fix anything.
Some on the forum have tried a fix outlined earlier on the forum that involves pulling your battery and SD card, then sliding your SIM card in and out repeatedly, which theoretically creates a better connection between the SIM card and phone. I have tried this and it did not work for me, but others have had success.

Verizon should extend the 14-day return period until after the supposed October/November patch is released.
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA App

Took my Bionic onto the local Verizon store, and the tech guy wanted to try a new SIM card and see if that worked, because I still have a week left of the 14 day period. I was willing to try it, because I have nothing else to loose.
So far, I haven't had any drops, but it has been only 4 hours. however, I would have experienced several by now, so hopefully it was fixed.

I find this odd because only the 4G is controlled by the SIM card, and you said you were having 3G issues?
In any case, my 3G drops sometimes, but a quick airplane mode ON, airplane mode OFF always works. I might take it in and say you had this help your case though, and see about getting mine looked at.

Well, the problem isn't fixed. It started shortly after I posted about the SIM card. This is getting frustrating.
I guess the next step is a new phone.

I'm having the same issue along with horrible data speeds for both 4G and 3G. My down speed for 3G is sometimes as low as 50kbps, and my down speed for 4G is 1.5mbps. That is also with apparently "full" signal strength.
The 14 day return/exchange policy is thursday for me so I'm thinking about going in and having them exchange it. I'll probably also point out the headphone issue since everyone seems to be having that one. There shouldn't be a problem right?

[Q] No 3G after 902 update

I had been fairly lucky with the 4G/3G switching issue with my bionic. It happened occasionally but wasn't a big deal.
Got the 902 update yesterday afternoon. Almost immediately I lost all data. Tried airplane mode, reboot, pull the battery, take the sim out, boot without sim. Sometimes one or the other of these would bring back 4 G briefly. Today I lost all data at home and did all those things plus a factory reset and still did not have data. (I live in an area that is definitely in 4G)
So I drove to the Verizon store and tech support did all the things I told them I had already done and then he discovered I had no 3G. He tried all sorts of things to get 3G to turn on but it would not. 4G would turn on when he switched from cdma only to cdma/lte. I know I used to have 3G because when I would drop 4G i would see 3G in the notifications. So I have a new bionic on the way.
Has anyone else lost 3G after the 902 update? Anyway to get it back without getting a new phone?

Just a thought, but it seems something went wrong with the radio flash. I'd try reinstalling the .902 update (download it on the web).

I noticed the radio issues as well. Apearently not all handsets are affected. Motorola received feed back on this and say their looking into this...
Thier is something wrong with the idle settings affecting 3g/4g after the update.
If your push notifications are on then you probably won't have this issue.
At least that's what I've seen.

Yeah this happened to me. I lost all data. I thought I fried my Sim but after 4 hours at Verizon store and 3 Sims obviously that was not it.
I ended up flashing 893 system image, rooted and flashed a 902 update. It's finally back.

[Q] Frequent loss of cell signal - do I have a defective Moto X?

I've got the Moto X GSM developers edition with Kitkat 4.4 unlocked and rooted. I am on H2O wireless (AT&T MVNO). I've had this setup for about a month.
At least several times a day, I'll hear a quick beep in my bluetooth headset alerting me to the fact that I have no mobile signal. I look at the phone and I have zero bars for maybe 30 seconds and then it goes back to (usually) 4 bars. This happens at home, where I always seem to have 4 bars except for these incidents, so it is not like I am in a marginal signal area and it is going between 1 and 0 bars. It also happens when driving around Portland OR on the major freeways. It doesn't happen in the same spots, so I don't think I am driving through a weak signal area. If I'm driving around it happens more often than when I am at home - maybe 10 or more times on a two hour trip.
At least four times I have been driving and the phone kept dropping signal and getting it back maybe 8 or 10 times until it finally lost the signal for good. I powered off and on and then the signal was fine. Once I left the phone on after the signal had dropped out completely until I stopped driving and was in an area that I know that I have had good signal strength before. I left the phone on for at least 10 minutes and the signal would not come back until I power cycled the phone.
Searching here and with google, I couldn't find reports of signal problems like this with the Moto X. So I'm guessing that this isn't some problem endemic to the Moto X. I can't believe that this is normal behavior for a phone on the AT&T network (I just ported from Page Plus on Verizon towers when I got the Moto X and I never got signal dropouts). Could there be something faulty in my phone? Should I try to get a warranty exchange from Motorola? Or is there anything else I can do to debug/fix the problem? Thanks.

There's a reflash toolkit around here. Use it. It fixed a similar issue I was having
MotoX Developer Edition

When you say you ported from page plus, do you mean you are using a verizon moto x on H2O?
If so that could be part of your problem. However, i was having an issue where my Verizon moto x wouldn't connect to 3G on Verizon. It would go from LTE to 1x. I factory reset and it didn't fix it.
Ultimately before I returned it to moto I tried a sbf to 4.2.2 and then accept the ota for 4.4. and that fixed my problems.
All the files for flashing back to 4.2.2 are in the Dev section. Just be sure to backup anything that is important to you. All data will be deleted.

No, I don't have the Verizon Moto X, as I said, I have a GSM developers edition Moto X. I was just mentioning Page Plus as my previous experience with never seeing any dropped service. I don't have any previous experience with AT&T towers, so I don't know what might be normal for them. I know coverage is not as good as Verizon in my area, but I can't believe what I am seeing is normal.
I think you are talking about data service, am I right? I am not talking about data, I am talking about problems with voice/text service. I could try going back to 4.2.2 and then taking the OTA, but that is basically the path I took to get where I am now, so I'm not too hopeful that it would change anything.

Same problem here /:
Just wanted to add some info here, experiencing the same issue unfortunately.
GSM Unlocked Moto X 16GB, running off MVNO Straight Talk AT&T LTE.
I'll have several instances where I won't be able to send texts. Every time it bounces back with a "Failure to send SMS" error, and I'll notice that the signal strength will fluctuate rapidly from 0-3 bars. Data works fine, but texts don't send
Had it happen at school, AT&T service is great there. Gonna try it with my Optimus G tomorrow and report back to confirm if it's a device issue.

UPDATE: Moto X issue. Going to call them for a moto maker replacement.

What issue did they say it was? Had this happen twice randomly in 2 weeks, but no sure if it's the phone or the network - otherwise signal has been great.

They didn't give me any details I just got to order a new one for free, and they'll take a look at the old Moto X when they get it. Hopefully the new one doesn't do this crazy stuff.
If any issues come up, i'll just return it. Don't see a bright future for Motorola anyways...

Just mentioning I have the XT 1053 and have replaced it 2 times. All had the issue mentioned. Some worse than others. I never rooted or done anything to my phone I'm currently testing 4.2.2 since 4.4 and 4.4.2 have been giving me the problem. I'll update if I notice anything.
Also a whole thread here of people are having the same issue:

Someone should reach out to the Motorola engineers on G+ they usually respond pretty fast!

Thanks for the link - I didn't find that thread when I was searching around to see if other people were having the problem.
I am still having the problem. How often it happens each day varies a lot. Some days it hardly happens at all and others it will happen dozens of times. I just installed 4.4.2 a few days ago, so it hasn't been long enough to tell if it has improved with the update. It has happened only a few times since I updated.

This happened to me a few times....only when I was leaving lte and going to 3g. The phone seemed to hang a bit switching over from lte to h+.
I'm thinking if I lived in an area where it switched back and forth a lot, I'd have a real problem. Probably unless a better fix comes along....forcing 3g only would solve it. Though that would be pretty crappy.
Thats what I noticed in my case anyway.

If it did fix it, then it sure wouldn't be hardware related, but that would be interesting. And it is suspect that only some people are having this issue and others aren't unless other people just aren't reporting it. So many thoughts lol

My wife's phone was having this issue. Would just drop cellular connection. You could make it happen by running a speedtest, as soon as it hit the upload part of the test it would drop all connectivity and a few seconds later it would reconnect. I waited for 4.4.2 to be pushed and that didn't fix it so I waited for the .sbf to flash it clean to 4.4.2 which didn't help either. I swapped her SIM in to my Moto X and it worked without issue.....putting it back in her Moto X and constant drops of cellular connectivity.
I finally had Motorola issue me an RMA to send it back for repairs. They were going to swap it out for new but when they realized it was a Developer Edition they said it had to be repaired. It's been with Motorola for two weeks so far with no info from them on what's going on. Very disappointed in their service so far. Apparently Motomaker versions get handled much faster than Developer Editions.

Yeah it's true Moto maker phone's just get replaced! no questions asked. You ask me their warranty needs work! Also I've tried 4.2.2 and 4.4. Using wifi on and off and nothing has fixed the issue for me. I told them about the issue and got my refund. This is a problem and should be fixed.
This phone would be great if it didn't have camera issues and the MMS and LOS bug I hope you get it fixed. otherwise, let Moto know, be aggressive in your point, speak to a supervisor and get your money back! Best of luck to you.

It's a known 4.4.2 issue that's supposed to be fixed with the 4.4.3 update, among other things. Some of the fixes are Nexus 5 specific, while others are shared issues. I'm currently experiencing the data drop outs frequently, tried everything without luck.

[Q] VS980 Mobile Data says its Roaming

Hello All,
Something changed in my phone and not really sure as to what has happened. All of a sudden my phone loses data connectivity and thinks that it is roaming. If I enable airplane mode and disable it, then the phone works for about 10-15 minutes and then loses connectivity again. Running the 12B baseband (been using it for months with no issue) and haven't changed the ROM in quite some time. This started happening on yesterday.
Any suggestions?

Damnit. I am having the EXACT same problem, running CM11.
How did you come to that conclusion? I am thinking I'm going to have to restore to stock if I'm going to get Verizon to do anything about it.

I reverted all the way back to 11A stock unrooted. The phone was in 4G for about 5 minutes (if that) and then remained in 3G mode.

I'm at the same point. Going to do an Asurion claim since I didn't buy my phone from VZW (Swappa).

I had this problem before when I tried other roms like cm rom and omni rom. I tried to do *228 to fix problem, but made it made it worse. I restored it back to stock and took it to the Verizon store. They put a new sim card in it for free and it fixed the problem. Now i am running stock with simple kernel.

Same exact problem here. I was on the phone with Verizon last night. I was running cloudy pro 2 (all his roms for that matter as they are international roms) and kept getting the roaming issue you speak of...with 3g. I went back to 11A completely bone stock. Just like you mentioned, I get 4g but then after like 10 minutes I get 3g with roaming. Of course this is after I spent 30 minutes on the phone with tech support. They 'zapped' my sim card and it appeared to work but no dice. Now before doing all this I downloaded build prop editor and changed the ro.build.target_country to US versus COM as everyone suggested in all the forums, still no dice. I've tried the toggle airplane mode trick...works for like 5 minutes and back to 3g roaming. I think maybe a new sim card and avoid international roms...bummer because cloudys roms are blistering fast. Interesting thing though, I installed xdabebbs rom and malladus' rom, after already running cloudys roms, and get 3g but no roaming. I also verified that Verizon wasn't throttling me or something like that. One more thing I tried is reflashing the basebands and 24A modem, no dice. If there is a build prop fix or some other fix I'd love to hear it.
Edit: One think I'd like to mention. When I had an S4 I switched between stock roms and AOSP roms and the network settings were responsible for causing the roaming because the stock rom was an older build than the AOSP. So when I had roaming, I'd reflashed the AOSP rom, changed the settings then flash the stock rom. It worked great.
Edit#2: Ok making a little progress. Just did this:
Get a build.prop editor from the play store, and change ro.carrier to VZW and ro.build.target_operator to VZW and ro.build.target_country to US.
Initially it worked but when I make calls it gives me Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped and I cant make calls. I went into Settings, Apps, reset app preferences...that didn't fix it either.
4G/LTE is pretty solid now but again, I cant make calls.
Edit#3: Nevermind...roaming again.

Alright, I'd be lying if this makes any sense to me, but the issue appears to be related strictly to the SIM card.
I had them swap the SIM, it fixed the issue, then it came back. I'm on a new phone now, and it appears to be working. The old SIM did not work on either phone, but the new one does. What makes no sense is the old SIM would work fine in my Galaxy Nexus, but would not work in the G2. Now the new SIM is working perfectly in the new G2 (haven't tried the old one).
I'm baffled.
I've never seen anything make so little sense. The guy at the store told me I would need to replace the SIM again in a few days. Whatever, if it happens again, I'll do just that.

I did the same with my gs3. What ROM are you running?
Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk

The original phone was running CM 11 Nightlies.
I'm currently on stock - not sure if I'm going to stay with CM because the official thread indicates official development is DitW for the G2 .

That's actually strange... I'd expect roaming issues with an Intl ROM but not cm.
