[Q] Problems with network search (CM 7.1.0-X8) - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
Recently I have upgrae my phone to CM 7.1.0-X8 (with kernel 2.6.29.6-nAa-11).
Unfortunately I have a problem when I try to browse mobile networks: an error appears (message 'Error while searching for networks'). I cannot log in to a network different than my own (this will cause problem with roaming abroad).
On another forum I have noticed that someone came across this problem on HTC phone and change of a library file (libhtc_ril.so) helped in that case but I neither have this library in my installation, nor it is a SE phone.
Can anyone help in this case? Thanks a lot in advance.

Trying using the latest version of the kernel that would be version 2.6.29.6-nAa-13.
Here is the link to the kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350484
And are you using the Official CM7 for you phone? If you are, trying using MiniCM7 its much better.
Here is a link to the ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362585

Yep, I'm using CM7 official Shakira version. Having read your post I'm wondering at the following issues:
1. What are the differences between official CM7 I have installed and Mini CM7?
2. Basically - current instalation works fine, apart from the network selection. Perhaps it would be sufficient to replace a specific library in my installation with another one from Mini CM7 version?
3. Is Mini CM7 better than normal CM7?

Official CM7 is pretty old and discontinued. You can think of MIniCM7 like an update that started when the Official CM7 for the X8 ended. So MiniCM7 is probably better in every way (I say probably because I have never used the Official CM7, but you never hear some one recommend the Official CM7 over MiniCM7). Also a lot of other ROMs are based on MiniCM7 so that says something. Replacing a library will be more complicated than switching Kernel and ROM and who knows if it will even work, you might end up breaking it more than fixing it.

I have upgraded my phone to MiniCM7 version. It has solved all the problems that existed earlier. Apart from problems with network, also the phone speaker is louder (as with the original SE Rom), FM Radio is also present.
Thanks a lot.:good:

Suggest a ROM for GPS and music please.

Hi!
I've been using my Galaxy S (I9000 16gb) with Darky's 10.1 and Voodoo for a couple of months and now i have flashed latest Darky's 10.2. I understand that Darky is working hard on his releases, but for several reasons i don't like 10.2 version at all.
Can you please recommend me a good fast ROM with good modem part for a GPS and latest version voodoo kernel? I constantly use GPS and listen to the music so these are the crucial parts. Or maybe just separate modem and voodoo kernel that I can flash on a Cyanogenmod for example.
Thank you!
Try doctorz rom....click on my sig.

GPS depends on region, I'm from Europe.
Also u should try newest Darkys based on JVQ cuz they wont continue JVR development.
hmm , with all the music controls on the lockscreems aamd all the optional lockscreens you get with the nexus S gps fix , I wonder why nobody has suggested my rom .
Older ROM
I've upgraded to both JVR and JVS ROMs, but always found myself going back to the JVQ ROM instead, and just flashed updated system apps, etc.
Battery life is poor on the upgrades, and not as efficient...some are quite slow.
The best (fastest and most stable) ROM I've tested is F1 SGSII ROM Faryaab V6.
The developer released v7 of this ROM (JVR), but not as good, so again downgraded.
I've tried close to 10 ROMs (JVP, JVQ, JVR, JVS), including the stock ROMs for these upgrades, but none are better.
I suggest, if there is a ROM you like, use it, then just search/browse for apps you liked from other ROMs and create your custom feel.
market doesn't work
Thank you guys! I have flashed Darky's 10.3 and now I can't download any apps from the market, it just keeps saying something like "Starting download". I experienced same thing on 10.2. What is the problem? This is ROMs fault or something is wrong with settings? Everything was working back on the 10.1.

Which version of Android Market do you have?
Some of the newer custom ROMs clash with the older version of the market for no particular reason. Do a google search for version 3.0.27, which I think is the latest for Market. Install the apk and hopefully your problems are resolved.

I had old one. Installed 3.0.27 and the problem is still there.
Try the App "GPS AIDS" (I know its a goofy name) from the market.
For some SGS users, that's all they needed to get their GPS fixed...

I really dont understand why.it isnt workin
When i.switched to.the galaxy.s.it worked well
Sorry for the lot of dots
Bump!! i gave all the details i will be more calm if someone just says
"it isnt workin for me neither waiting for the next update or something"
At this stage, we don't support custom ROMs with Viber (except basic ones, like CM7 and MIUI). Running Viber on a customized ROM results in various side effects, some of which are severe, but unfortunately we can't afford to support ALL those ROMs at this stage. You might want to contact the ROM developers and ask if any adaptations could be made there in order to support Viber.
FYI - many times microphone problems (like the one you're experiencing) are caused by the fact that the ROM causes the phone to "think" that it's actually a different phone, resulting in a different usage of the phone's microphone by Viber. "Model Number" in "About" page sometimes reflects this issue - so please let me know what phone you're using, which Android version, and what's written under "Model Number" in your "About" page.
To all,
We (Viber) are about to release multilangual support for Viber at last!
Since we know that XDA's great advantage is having so many members from different places in the world, we would appreciate your help with translation to your personal language. This means adding missing translated lines, and confirming the existing translations previously added by users: http://translate.viber.com
Remember - we let the community of our users shape Viber and device what it looks like
If you have any questions please let me know. We thank you in advance,
the Viber Team.
So i will sat it again as i said it in the OP!
At the moment I'm using MIUI mintberry, BUT i tried viber an multiple roms like:
-stock jvt (flashed via odin)
-stock cyanogen
-stock MIUI
-cyanogen with platypus
-stock instanity CM
-insanity with platypus
-miui mintberry with platypus
theese with xxjvk zsjpg and bvjjpg modems
at the general section it says GT-I9000
IMEI is correct its the same as the one behind the battery
so i really dont understand whats the problem
i figured out i can activate with two activation code 4758 and 4759
please help!
When you say "stock MIUI and "stock instanity CM" you're basically saying that your Android is NOT stock. The definition of Custom ROM is installing any ROM that's not the original one you got from your cellular provider.
You can try and contact our support team at http://support.viber.com - they might be able to assist you further.
I said i tried it with stock JVT thats the original stock rom from samsung with stock kernel!
We are going to do our best with investigating this issue, but it is almost impossible for us to pinpoint the source of the problem if ALL of your phone's settings were stock.
All I can offer to you is to wait for our upcoming Viber 2.1.3 and see if the problem is resolved there.
so you re saying viber 2.1.2 is supposed to be working with the GT-I9000 and something s wrong with my device so ill kepp trying you not getting any wrong experience feedback from other i9000 users
On the contrary - Viber fully supports GT-I900, as written in our official website: http://helpme.viber.com/index.php?/.../View/100/0/cant-download-from-android-market
same problem as the OP here... any news about it?
I'm on Teamhacksung's ICS alpha 17 with semaphore kernel.
Hi,
If I understand correctly, you are using Galaxy S i9000 with a CM9 Custom ROM. Is that correct?

Correct.
If as "custom" you mean anything other than stock.
Have you tested Viber on Stock ROM on your phone? Does the problem persist even then?

[Q] Need help going from cm9 nightly to cm9 stable

Im running a cm9 nightly.
When i saw a stable version was available, i downloaded it and attempted to flash
It got the attached pic when i attempted.
Is there any way to do it via cell phone? I do not have a computer, so this is the only option.
It should be noted i only want to move to the stable version because my GPS does not work with this nightly, so if there is a fix for that, it will be good as well.
Thanks.

From your picture it looks like you downloaded a ROM for the wrong phone. The error youre getting is the updater script trying to verify what phone its being installed to. The error is referencing galaxys and i9000 when the captivate is an sgh-i897. On cm's site its also labeled as captivatemtd in the download list.
Verify that the ROM you have downloaded is specifically for the captivate and/or download the one for the captivate and try again.

Depending on the modem you have installed it could be causing your problems. I was messing with modems one day and flashed one that gave me great signal but when I went to use my GPS I couldn't get it to lock onto a single sat.
http://soggycashew.weebly.com/cm7miui--ics-modems.html
That will take you to a rather extensive list of available modems. Use the ones that are located directly at that link. There are other options but they will not install on cm7 and up.
I personally use the ugkg3 and it works great
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA
I have only ever used CM, and haven't installed anything else, so I guess it is a stock modem (not even entirely sure what a modem is). The thing is, my GPS used to work on cm7, but once I put on the cm9 nightly, it stopped. I bent the antenna out a bit to make sure it was making contact with the battery cover (saw that on the internet), and when I turned it back on, it caught its location once, but wouldn't do it again. I guess I'll have to make a desperate thread about my GPS not.working. thanks for the help though!
I highly recommend the GPS fix flashable mod. I never had working GPS without it. An xda search will lead you there.

[Q] Can't make any calls - call ended

I have just installed this ROM. but, I can send SMS and use the 3G (Whatsapp,Browser and etc...) , but when I try to call it says "Call ended" before it even give any sign of health but, I can get calls but can't make.
anyway , I've entered the APN's correctly for 100%, any other idea. I did installed the ROM correctly. and reinstalled.
you're applying one of the latest developments (nightly builds) they might be buggy due to any impact - so why doing that?
Go for a CM9 based ROM to run it without trouble.

Actually also a developer I could notice they claiming that this nightly is perfectly fine. anyway, I had this problem even with my older ROM (the stock one). so I can guess its not a problem with the new ROM.
I never worked on this device, I can guess its something with the hardware, cause im not well-adjusted in the details, I asked if there is common bugs or something....
i'm using this rom as a daily driver, and not even once had a problem similar to the one described by you... so it must be something with your phone, as you said...

Maybe the rom + kernel combination is wrong or the rom is just being buggy.
I just personally liked nAa's work because he release a stable version of every product.
If you want to change into the recommended rom that I just told you;
1. Flash the latest kernel (06)
2. Follow instruction on the kernel post. (/system wipe at recovery before flashing a rom & etc)
3. Flash the rom. Followed by the GAPPS
4. As it said, this is my recommendation steps. I do not guarantee your satisfactory
