[Q] Radio behaviour with different ROM's when phone is S-ON? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all!
I have unlocked the bootloader on my phone thorugh HTC Dev, but unfortunately I cannot get S-OFF (yet, waiting patiently).
I have been trying out a few ROM's and I notced that on the latest one (that I really like!) I seem to get worse 4G coverage. I installed Android Revolution to get 4.3 and it seems to have noticeably worse 4G coverage around my office and my house. 1 bar instead of full bars.
I am just wondering; On the HTC Dev site it says that being S-ON protects what you should not change anyway, as the radio. So my radio should be the same. Might there be an issue with the compatibility between the radio and my current ROM? Is there such a thing?
Thanks in advance!
I have been googling, but there are too many variants of the HTC One out there, so I have not been able to find anything relevant to this issue on my phone.
This should be the relevant info from settings:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

I've installed probably 40 different ROMs (not versions, ROMS) on my ATT One and I've noticed the same exact thing, I've actually stopped using a ROM and went to another one just to have my service feel regular again.

Changing a setting seems to have helped a lot for me. Read this post and the next page in the thread. :good:

[RESOLVED] Is there a way to change the HTC One icon in windows explorer?

So, I know on the long list of problems in the world, this is probably the lamest but it is something that bugs me.
I have an HTC One GE 4.3 (sinless Rom for those that want to know) and whenever I connect it to my computer, this ugly icon is displayed in the windows explorer:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have a beautiful HTC One .ico file that I want to replace it with, but I've been searching how to do this for about three days to no avail. I've even installed the horrendous HTC Sync software just for the drivers that were undoubtedly included with it, that didn't work.
I suspect it's because I'm using a GE rom on my phone as opposed to an untouched sense ROM, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
Also just in case you can't tell, I'm running Windows 8.
I hate double posting, but it appears I FINALLY found a solution, so I thought I'd share.
I found this topic thread on another site, and after initially running into problems, It finally worked!
Here is the final result!
If anyone wants to do this with their own HTC One, here is the .ico file I used.

[Q] Finding the "region" of stock ROM

I was wondering if there is a way to find out if the stock ROM is WWE or not. Here's why I'm asking.
When I purchased the HTC Desire few years ago, it clearly came with an Arab-region based ROM. Right from the moment I turned it on, the region selection showed Middle Eastern countries. (Plus some apps which I definitely did not need)
I then searched out and flashed a WWE ROM.
My new HTC One was also purchased in the Middle East, but this time around - the ROM doesn't seem to be based out of the Arab-region. Hence I mused out loud if I could confirm if this phone has indeed come with the WWE ROM.
Thanks for taking the time to read. Any insight would be great.

Middle east = EMEA = WWE UL
You can check which product code/model ID by running these commands using adb and fastboot
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot getvar all
Thanks, @blu9987.
I will run adb and find out. It did not strike me earlier to check that 'variants' image - going by what you've mentioned, I suppose I already am on WWE. Cool!
Weird it was so different with the Desire, but that was three years ago.

So this popped up on my system tray thus afternoon...

Happened to me as well. I'm personally curious as to what it is.
@eXplicit815 @Indirect
From what I've read online, it's pretty much an apk that HTC made for logging purposes (?) and due to some glitchiness it expired early, leading to the notification. According to the Sprint forums they're currently talking to HTC about an update or something to fix this.

Thank's for the info. I was wondering what this was.
My wife just told me she is having this pop up on her phone too, hers is stock and mines runninga custom Rom and I have no issues lol ....wonder when the glitch will be worked out....

[Q]pil-modem_fw: why won't it leave me alone?

I started noticing extreme battery drain around the time I began fooling around with the lollipop rom builds that began popping up in the forums last month, so I started trying to look into it. This is what I found: (this isn't a good example because of a short timeframe, but at times it's been up to 30k wakelocks over 6 hours)

I've tried searching Google and of the 2 posts that even come close, I can't make sense of it.
My phone is currently disconnected and has been for some time, so I can't tell if it's searching for service, even though I keep it in airplane mode, with Wi-Fi on only when I need it, turned off background data, even froze the phone app. Still no luck. Same thing when I switched back to cm11.
Is there anyone or there who knows what this is about and what I can do about it?
***ANY and ALL info is GREATLY appreciated***

If you flash the stock 4.4.4 firmware for your device with fastboot/mfastboot it will likely be fixed.
Why you're getting this.... I don't know. Can't find anything on it either.

Custom Rom

Hi @ all.
Im pretty new to "android auto".
I recently bought this device:
s.aliexpress.com/Ezy2A32u
Its ok for that price and i wanted to give it a try.
Im pretty happy, but there are two little problems:
-theres a little "noise" on low volume(i think the cheap hardware's causing it) but i can live with that for that price
- software... It seems to be android 4.4.2 with some pre installed apps.
Some of them ive already uninstalled with root apps.
But overall, im not happy with it, theres also the radio app which starts every start automaticly.
So the main question is, is there any possibility to install a custom rom?
Many thanks
In your settings there should be some information listed which will say something like MTCB or MTCC or MTCD thats the first important part to deciding which rom you can run. The picture in this thread should help you find it.
