Hey guys and gals i know this is purely cosmetic but ever since i went to ARHD my signal bar in LTE always reads 1-2 bars unless im on the highway or downtown. How do i change it soo it looks like it was before.. im running the latest radio fyi. I know it means nothing but id like it to read higher.. if anyone could help that would be epic
thanks!

hi guys, ive flashed a couple of different froyo roms and decided to stick to FroyoRedux 1.5
reason for all this reflashing.......when using 3G networks i randomly get no signal for about 2 minutes and then its back again. im not too sure why this is happening and wondering if anyone else encountered the same problem?
there seems to be no problem with 2G networks but being on 2G is lame and makes mobile internet kinda pointless.
BTW problem still persists in FroyoRedux 1.5
phone specs are in the sig (if you wanna know what im using)
cheers!
Had this issue on my kaiser running froyo also, went to an older radio which fixed it, and amazingly enough, the same happened on my G1, and the same step fixed it.
Using radio 2.22.23.02 I had regular 'no signal' issues, going back to 2.22.19.26I solved it for me, I still get signal loss on occasion, but only in known very low signal areas,
hmmm interesting, im gunna give this a try and see what the outcome is.
did u just flash the old radio file over your current one or did you use a specific procedure?
hey guys , sorry if im in the wrong place here , i have an issue with my htc pure that has me on the edge of pulling my hair out lol, i live in an edge network area and i get a very poor signal no matter what i do. is this a radio issue , or i mean , ever since i had the phone and i am stationary at home ive never been able to get above 2 bars , as my wife has the same phone , and she gets 4-5 bars , can someone please enlighten me on this , maybe should i flash to a different rom and radio , if so can someone point me in the right direction to a fast, stable rom . thanks in advance
Hi all,
I'm using latest MIUI ROM atm and love it. however there's a problem of the signal sign which stays on G all the time unless i'm doing any data-related task such as browsing or facebook. at that moment it will quickly change to HSDPA.
not sure if it's a feature or a bug by MIUI?
i have used trinity, coredroid and icecold, they're all good staying in H/3G
Just wondering if anyone else experiencing the same issue with MIUI rom?
I already tried the 27/28/29 radio as well
thanks for the replies

Does this happen everywhere or only in certain locations?
am sure you are aware that gprs/3g is dependent on the network strength.
so it could be cos of a low signal strength area.
since you have tried a couple of radios, try any other rom & check if the problem persists
My phone behaves like this too. But I believe it's carrier specific because when I was using the previous operator the signal always stay in H. Once I begin using current operator, the signal stay in 3G and will switch to H if I access mobile data.
Hi all,
yeah I did try other ROMs and it works alright (trinity and coredroid + icecold)
with the MIUI, the problem persists everywhere even when I change the radio
very hard for me to change MIUI because of the feature and the smoothness
now I set it to use 2G only to save battery
I guess it's not a feature in MIUI since changing between GPRS/HSPA drains the battery?

Actually you can try changing some settings in /system/build.prop. Look for these two settings:
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=6
ro.ril.hsxpa=2
If they're of different values, change them, reboot and see if there's any difference. Don't worry, if anything goes wrong, just change them back.
What would happen if I flashed a 4.3 rom while having the 1.29 radio? If it's like flashing a 4.1 rom while having the 3.04 radio (touchscreen doesn't work) could there be a way to make it work? I only went back to 1.29 to have better signal.

You don't need the new firmware for 4.3, it works perfectly with the old. But, if you update your firmware, it won't work on 4.1.2, because of the touchscreen driver

So, I could flash a sense 5.5, android 4.3 rom, while using the 1.29 radio, and it will work fine?
EDIT: Alright, so I flashed the ecliptic one rom thinking that the issues with the signal on 4.3 was the radio that came with the update.......well I guess I was wrong because the signal still says 1 bar of 4G, where I should have full bars. I can't think of what else would cause the issues.
Starting with 4.3, the bars show you the data signal instead of the voice signal. On the old version, full bars for you meant full bars of voice even if it said 4G next to it. You still had only 1 bar of 4G data, it just didn't show that.

I don't know, I should have much, much more signal then, the tower is really close to my house. Also with the battery had a big drain, and it would jump between 3g and 4g, like it was in a strain, it would get hot.
By putting the old radio on and still having the same issue, you have pretty much shown it was not the update causing it.
I had the same situation as you. As far as the heat and switching, you are probably noticing it more now since you saw the low bars.
My tower is only 3/4 of a mile from my house, I have clear line of sight to it, and I get 1 bar. It's just how Sprint is. My friend's S4 picks up a slightly better signal here, but it still constantly flips between 4G and 3G.
Hey All,
My G2 never says "LTE" anymore. The best the little icon ever gets is 3G (like right now - and the status screen says CDMA - eHRPD, -84 dBm 4 asu). I'd like to know if my phone is broken. I have CyanogenMod 12.1-20151117-SNAPSHOT* on it. I'm considering putting it back to stock firmware to see if it's hardware or firmware. Is there a less drastic troubleshooting step I should do first though?
Thanks,
Dan
