[Q] [q]t-mobile lte and GE roms problems - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

so, i've tried looking around and no luck, for some reason when i flash any room that is not sense my lte doesn't necessarily stops working, but lets just say edge speeds are faster... and i can't figure it out why, at first i just flashed a GE room without the firmware and thought that was the problem, and so i flashed firmware, and it didn't help. where in sense i would get full bars, in a GE room with out without firmware fashed i barely get one bar, and eventually goes down to hspa+ but then just jumps back to what i like to call EDGELTE.
so i already tried flashing the appropriate firmwares for the rom, also tried flashing radios, all with no success. oh and this applies to every non-sense room i've tried, all give me the same problem. And I seem to be the only person with a t-mo device with such problem, because over at htc one tmo forums, people that had the problem, solved it by flashing firmwares.
anyhow, so i come to you people that know more than i do, and maybe give me some insight on what could be :good:
thanks in advance for any help!

Best radio for Kaiser on AT&T in California?

Hello all, I've spent a lot of time trying different Radios on my Kaiser, but I've had some trouble. While I'm not certain my troubles are radio-caused, I know that when I got my phone (AT&T Tilt), I was able to make calls indoors without a problem and rarely experienced drop calls.
After flashing custom ROMs and different radios, my phone performs abysmally indoors and drops calls frequently. Other AT&T phones I have do not have these problems in the exact same locations.
Is there anyone out there who uses AT&T in California who might have some recommendations for the best performing radio? What radio did the AT&T Tilt's ship with?
Thanks in advance.
Moved as not ROM Development..
The best you can do is try Radios as so many variables.. Also may be worth going back to stock ROM with stock Radio to see if a hardware issue if recently has started happening.
Radio
Sorry for the wrong category...the Radio downloads are in the ROM dev section so I put it there without thinking
If I flash the stock ROM, will that automatically put me back to the stock Radio? What is, in fact, the stock Radio?
No need to be sorry and if it wasn't a Sunday i would have probably just directed to the Radio thread "but from what you said you tried loads"
Stock ROMs come with Radios the WIKI holds stock ROMs
same problem in CT on ATT. Nothing but stock will work now. I have tried all radio combinations and they work for a little while and then stop.
You say that they "stop" working? Very unusual for a Radio to outright "stop" working.

problem with data connection for Tmobile USA

So I've been messing around with more roms lately trying to find one that has all the features I like and that are easy to use. I am on the latest clockwork recovery through rom manager. I was on the korean radio 5.08? and flashed around with superhybrid, miui bundle, desire hd, rodriguez miui. and an oc-kernel for 1152mhz? something like that.
My phone just won't connect to the data connection no more, on any of the rom. i tried changing my APN to a couple. I tried switching back to my usual rom, I tried upgrading to the radio to the latest korean radio of 5.12. I was able to get edge connection for a brief moment, but it barely works. When I say brief i mean like 2 minutes then there goes my edge connection....
I'm hoping this is network side in this general area only, but is there a possible problem on my phone? any solution if it is?
I would try it out at different part of town that you usually get 3G.
If it's like that all the times everywhere than it might be the phone but I doubt it.
I had the same problems for about 2 weeks here at work (everywhere else it work fine). Tmobile must have fixed the tower cause it's working fine now at work also.

Weak signal after radio and ROM flash

After the most recent stock update that added Sense 3 I started having intermittent radio problems. I had always been on stock and never fiddled with the firmware, radio, anything like that. The radio would randomly disconnect from the network and stay disconnected for a while, or I could get it back faster if I rebooted the phone or cycled flight mode. Using data often acted as a catalyst for the problem and I could reduce occurrences by using wifi when I'm at home. Total annoyance. I decided to try fixing it myself and I've found a lot of useful information here.
I first installed a couple different ROMs and found that after booting, there was no signal, so it was probably the radio. I had HBOOT 2.0 so I had to downgrade, use Revolutionary to get S-OFF, then start working with different radio versions. I haven't had any luck since.
Current setup:
Bought unbranded and unlocked from the UK. 900/1700/2100 model
Revolutionary HBOOT-6.13.1002
Baseband: 20.4802.30.0882U_3882.10.08.28_M
ROM: Virtuous Quattro RC2 (Android 4.0.2)
Network: 3 Sweden (UMTS 900/1200 network)
I've also had the same problem running Cyanogen 7.1 and Android Revolution HD 2.1.3. I had high hopes for ARHD since it said it specifically was designed for the radio I've flashed. I actually even went through and tried every single radio release from Gingerbread for the IncS. Same problem on all.
Strictly speaking it's not actually a no-signal problem, it's a very weak/malfunctioning signal problem. When I do a network scan I usually only see two of the three GSM networks here and most if not all 3G networks are missing. The few times my home network has actually shown up in the network scan list, I can't register on it. I get the "Temporarily unable to register on this network. Try again later." message.
I hope I've done enough searching and effort on my own here before posting. Needless to say I'll be grateful for any help I can get here. After many hours of reading, flashing, rebooting, reflashing, rinse and repeat, I'm looking for an end to this!

Remember to close your back cover after each radio flash so you will get much accurate result.

wow..i was having the same problem. totally forgot about the antenna in the back cover. i was going nuts flashing different radios wondering why i was getting only edge. i feel stupid. thanks
I had no idea the back cover made any difference at all. Thank you for pointing that out to me! I was seriously about to go buy an iPhone or something, but I remembered I loathe the keyboard in iOS
I'm all good now! Running radio .28_M with ICS and things are as they should be. At least throughout all this hassle I got my radio upgraded to a hopefully less-crashy version and I got some ICS up and running
Cheers guys!

No one can call me - 4.3 roms Telstra

I swear 4.3 has ruined my reception in Australia no matter what modem I use. No one can ever call me (sometimes they can) Says my phone is off. Sometimes I try call out and just get beeps. Then it works, sometimes not. All sms works fine though. Anyone else have this?? I've even bought a new sim and tried 4 different 4.3 roms clean installed with different Modems (telstra)
Anyone?

Check if you have the correct IMEI on the phone.
If not, this could be a problem related to EFS v1 and v2.
Try flashing a modem (separately, not entire ROM).
Checked I had right IMEI and akso troed restoring my backup incase. Have trried wiping and flahing multiple Tmodems still just as bad!!

looked through all that, everything is fine from what ive checked.
maybe i now have Efsv2 and there are no efsv1 4.3 modems for Australia.
but why no one else have this issue!

Still no luck?
I'm on TPG's network (optus) and was using the 4.3 sammy roms from "the galaxy project". The signal seemed fine and was getting signal fine with the stock modem.
Did you end up flashing an updated modem? Give us a bit more info so we can try to reproduce the issue?
I've tried flashing many modems. and cleanly flashing 4.3 roms (aliance, rxtreme, acma). But after a while issue just comes back..I try ringing my mobile from work phone n it just goes straight to voice mail as all friends tell me. But Sometimes not. Seems to me almost like a deep sleep issue.
If I'm using phone (screen on) it will mostly be fine cause its awake but if I've had it closed sleeping for a while it just doesn't wake to answer calls. And issue seems to get progressively worse after clean room installed (few days). It's really really bothering me. I don't want to have to roll back to 4.1 as never had then

This is probably a long shot but you could try reflashing pre-rooted 4.1 rom via the download mode.
Or try a different kernel. I've found that the Boeffla ports from HBOHD are relatively issue free.
You could also check the pmsleep option in your rom/in the build.prop tweaks file under system and disable it?

Modem crashing - bp-dumps

Hi guys.
Since last week I've been having an issue. My phone ramdomly looses signal for like 10 seconds and it generates a folder named "bd-dumps" with 3 archives on it: ramdump_modem_fw.bin, ramdump_modem_sw.bin and ramdump_smem.bin.
I didn't changed anything on the phone when the problem started. I was running LiquidSmooth ROM (Very nice, BTW), and started noticing this issue. In fact, I just noticed because my phone was lacking memory.
Now, I've been searching about this issue, but none of the solutions have worked for me. Some say is a bad SIM Card, others a bad network, but I am pretty sure that the issue is not about that.
Everytime that I turn on Data services, it happens. When data services are off, it doesn't.
Anybody has have this issue or have any idea what is this about? I attached some screenshots. Thanks!
Edit: I already changed ROMS, flashed Stock with RSD and flashed modem, but the problem still the same.
This is old.
http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/79890-modem-crashes-on-102-nightly-28-sept/
Been happening on CM based roms since 10.2 or before, for me it will only crash while on H+, 2G won't crash. Stock rom doesn't crash. Already tried buying a new SIM card too.
Devs are either unaware/not willing to look into it/not capable of reproducing since it only seems to happen to certain unlucky people, probably related to some types of networks, since my crashes only occur while on certain regions of my country.
On the other hand, if anyone capable enough is willing to look into this, i'd glady crash my phone a thousand times to generate logcats, dumps or whatever is needed to debug this ****, after all, this is a dealbraker for CM, this is a phone after all.

In my case, it does crash on Stock too. That's my problem. I flashed with RSD to Stock and still the same.
I have also tried other ROMs but the problem still the same. Any ideas?
Thanks
Modem still crashes for me on anything not based on stock 4.1.1 / 4.1.2 - That said, latest PAC jbbl 20140825 has had the least, but persistent and consistently crashing at the same intervals.
I came from stock 4.1.1 latest ota to 4.1.2MX then PAC jbbl 20140825, only got about 6-7% signal loss. Where as all other roms 4.2 4.3 and 4.4.x have been similar results in the 20-30% signal loss.
In your case, if you've not realized since, your modem might be bad hardware-wise. Since you say it was working and then started suddenly, even on stock. Stock I get 0% signal loss.
