I checked and Gomdolight is for Korean version (f340 I think), are you sure you can?
(in the thread of Gomdolight, 1 guy was successfully installed, but he said nothing different, hhope he did not mean about wifi)
Could you report your try here?
Thanks in advance
Yes, I did as well and came to the same conclusion as the Dev did regarding the post stating no real changes noticeable. I plan to pm that member later on to see if he has any more feedback/advice before I commit. From what I gather the more modded features involve Korean based apps and such so for a D950 user not to notice is not surprise. I should know more tomorrow evening weather or not it is effective or not. Would do it sooner but I need to stay connected today so..... I'll keep you posted.
For me, the wifi strength is important. The rom itself does not matter.
Anyway, waiting for your post
==== edit =====
I had some time to check Gomdolight. Actually it is not a ROM, but a Modifier (remove system apps)
I don't think they change something for wifi-driver, which I believe is the problem for the weak wifi.
but just let me know how it is improved with your Gflex
thanks

Hey,my apologies to all who were waiting on the results of my attempted flash of the Gomdolite firmware mod. I'm sorry to report that although it installed successfully( albiet in a limited capacity due to variant and build discrepancies), it did not resolve my wifi woes.I will continue running Gomdolite despite that fact. Off topic and my apologies in advance, but it has improved my devices overall speed and fluidity. Hope someone has a solution soon...Btw, since my D950 doesn't have to function as my primary phone as of yesterday, (returned to Samsung, Note4) I am willing to Guinea pig for the common good of finding a resolution to our issues.Let me know if you got anything to test.

Hello,
My name is Brian, I'm a member here obviously.... Had the username BFielding a while back, registered in 2007 if I remember correctly, but can't access or retrieve password for that account, different email now, so now I'm BFielding80...
Heres my problem... I can't get SH!T for help on this site, maybe because it's so overloaded, or maybe some a$$hole said dont help this person.... IDK
All I know is I ask a question and they RARELY get answered.... I'm at the point I'LL ****1N PAY U TO ANSWER MY QUESTION, I'VE BEEN ASKING THE SAME [email protected] QUESTION LONG ENOUGH...
I need radio help. I'm rooted, I run all the ROMs, always Froyo based.... I've never updated my radio from what it came with.... I have radio 32.26.00.24H_4.04.00.03_2
I haven't updated because I don't want to kill my AT&T 3g.... I've read that the TMo Froyo radio will kill my AT&T 3G so thats why I left my radio alone.... But now I'm reading that the newer radios are compatible either way, so I want to upgrade it.
I know I can go back if it does kill my 850/1900, but I would rather someone to just please just recommend me a radio as well as link, I'll adb it myself...
I need a radio for best 3G and battery life would be a plus, but 3G is more important, in my area I drop to edge frequently...
THE PERSON WHO HELPS ME WILL RECEIVE $10 US DOLLARS VIA PAYPAL
Thanks,
Brian
Well, I don't want your money but you should be fine flashing this new radio (32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04). Some people say they get improved battery life and some don't. Most seem to get better reception.

There is where you will get the newest radio image, it is identical to the one found in the Desire 2.2 update. You do not have to update HBOOT if you do not want to, though I could be wrong on that one, though I didn't have to when I did.
If you do not want this version of the radio as some people have trouble with it you can flash the radio that was uploaded by enomther:

Heh, no that is all right. By the way, I kept editing my post a fair bit, sorry.
So there are two 2.2 radios you could flash. The newer one does give you better reception though, I use the 4.06 one though, if you were curious.

I have a tmo n1 and I noticed better reception with the korean radio but I've noticed some roms don't give me better reception but sometimes WORSE. I'm on rodriguez r21 limemod using the 5.06 radio. Works well. Just one off those trial and error things. If you re on edge instead of 3g try the *#*#4636#*#* trick just remember if u you use wcdma only and lose 3g u lose all service and have to change back to wcdma preferred. Good luck...

The ROM shouldn't affect your reception to my knowledge. You may have different APNs set and that could cause issues but even that is a stretch.
What 5.06 radio? 4.06 or 5.08?
Just put both radios on my SD, I'll update through RA recovery, but yall think adb is better?

They both should have the same end result. I usually flash through recovery but to each his own. See which one you like better make sure you checked the MD5sum and make sure they match up.

you should not see any major difference between the two radios when it comes to battery life. i've been using 5.08 since it came out, i have a much more stable signal and battery life is the same for me.
you can also downgrade ur radio whenever you want... just flash the old radio through recovery... you'll be ok
Fastboot is, IMO, the most reliable way to flash a radio. I would rather not leave a brickable upgrade/downgrade up to a script, but that's just my paranoia kicking in. lol.

any help please???

Hi guys!
So I have this weird issue ever since I updated to Jelly Bean.
Everything works fine after JB update, except my mobile data. I can now only get about 152kbps speed on 3g covered areas where everyone else gets 5Mbps.
I have tried a bunch of things, including flashing the JB radio firmware with the tool posted on the dev section... all to no avail. This is really bugging me!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
FYI: I'm rooted, unlocked bootloader, and have flashed the FR Orange JB update.

Other people on here may know a lot more than I do on this, but there are really only two elements to this in my understanding: device capability and network offering. The middle-point is of course, reception. If you don't get those speeds, it's likely reception. Many of us on here, who like modding, imagine the most difficult option as being the problem, I'd wager that it's the simplest... (I mean that sincerely, I'm not mocking!)

Nope, but thanks for the suggestion. I've already made sure it's not reception or anything physical either. I've tried the three radio firmwares provided in the forums (C7, C9, JB) and nothing.
I think the most plausible thing is that I flashed JB from France when I'm in Mexico.... If only I could find the files from another country and flash them to check this possibility... but I just can't find the link.
Edit: I just flashed the EU retail version and that did not fix my problem. I'm despairing now :'(

Hi All,
My wife recieved her HTC One this morning from EE. Because shes happy with her iPhone 5 she gave it to me. So i have 2! lol
Now ive been comparing these devices to decide on which one ill keep. Decided to keep my own one, because its factory unlocked and a better build quality, (The EE one isnt bad, just slightly more gappy than mine) however, i have a question regarding NFC.
When both enabled, they do work on both devices, however the NFC symbol only appears on the EE device, is there a reason for this? Just confused to as why my Sim free version dont display this.
Can anyone answer this? Not a problem to me just baffled!
Thanks in advance.

The reason is that HTC disabled this icon following the first firmware upgrade. When the EE device gets updated... it will disappear. Even sooner if you flash a custom ROM.

Got ya, thanks dude for the Quick reply. Its a shame, it could be quite a useful icon to have. Especially if you forget the NFC is on. . .
Yeah I have seen thisvery thing between different stock builds of various ROMs.
What it is, is a line in build.prop that determins whether the icon is shown or not. Certain people (myself included) think that there is no need to show it. You do not need reminding it's on as it uses such little power. Set it and forget it.
ro.nfc.icon.enable=false
Awesome. I thought it used up a little bit of power, but now i know. I shall just leave on. . . Thanks guys!
I'm not entirely sure if this is an issue with my hardware or software which is why I'm asking where I should look (or start a thread) first. I've had sound before but now there is nothing, not even crackling or popping. I'm using Cyanogenmod 11 on a Samsung Captivate. I read a thread about loosening a screw near the speaker and tried that (along with a not-so-deep tear-down), but still not a peep (or beep). Something I should mention is that headphones DO work when they're plugged in. Additionally I've done some scouring of the Internet for a fix but I can't find any problems truly similar to mine.
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. It seems to me like you have a hardware failure. Which version of the Captivate do you have? Unbranded or AT&T?
Hi to you too
Thank you for replying. I believe it is the at&t version, although I'll admit I wasn't aware there was a Captivate that wasn't an at&t version. That would be found in the info part of the phone as the model number right?

That's right, and most at&t phones actually have the at&t logo somewhere on the phone, as well as the at&t logo during the boot animation. If it has either of those we can safely assume that is the at&t model, otherwise please let me know what the model number is.

Wow, I can't believe I didn't notice it at the top of the phone, yes it is an at&t model.

Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
That way it'll reach the people who are most experienced with your device, so if it is a common bug they should be able to walk you through it. It sounds hardware related to me but lets see what the Captivate experts say.

It does sound like hardware. Have you tried slightly pushing on the speaker? I tends to come loose.
If you have any flashing experience, you can try flashing stock to completely rule out software issue but since the aux works, I'm pretty sure it's hardware.
I have tried pushing on the speaker. The only reason I was thinking it might be a software issue is because I changed some of the settings in what I believe is called dsp. Before I flash it back to the stock software (firmware?) is there any other troubleshooting I could try? Putting Cyanogenmod on it was somewhat of a process and overall I like it. And if it is a hardware problem how much would it cost to fix (not that I have any money to do so anyway )? And before I end this reply, thank you for your help.

You could always flash CM over and that would rule out the system file possibility.
Was the problem there before flashing CM? And I have a neat little guide on how to flash in my "most thanked" posts if you need it to get back to CM after flashing stock.

I actually don't remember if the problem was there or not as I flashed CM on it pretty much as soon as I got it. Can I just start from the "install from zip" process to reflash CM on it? In the meantime I'll see if I can do that without there being any potential problems with bricking the phone etc. And thank you for being patient with me .

Yeah, just flash the ROM zip and the Gapps over your current one. It's called a "dirty flash" and will only wipe your system settings.
I was celebrating St. Patrick's day which is why I haven't replied sooner, apologies. Anyway, I will do that, although I learned from the previous owner that the sound was going out so now I'm 99% positive that it's the hardware.

You should keep the quote, it notices the user you quote and that way, he can reply faster (me in this case).
And yeah speaker replacement is definitely an option. You should be able to find a quick video guide on youtube, I believe it's fairly easy to do.

I put an older CM version (that was under the stable category) on to see if it was the software and I checked with the previous owner to see if the sound was going out (it was). There still isn't any sound so it's definitely the hardware. Now the question is; do I spend money to replace the speaker on an old phone that I don't really need?
That'd probably be a different thread though.

Anyone else receive this OTA this morning? I didn't see, or look for, a detailed change log before proceeding with the OTA push. Phone rebooted and is optimizing apps right now. I'll provide further details once it finishes.
I know, for sure, that I checked for new software within the past week or so and there was nothing available. I've been up to date with OTA upgrades since getting this phone on day one of its release.
Anyone know anything about this upgrade?

Probably just updating security mostly since we were a few months behind. Could also be preparing our phones to take take 6.0 update since there's usually a small update before a big one. Wouldn't hold my breath on it though

Well we skipped a few months too so I'm not sure that counts
Don't try to apply this update if you've applied one of the leaked insecure boot images (for getting a root prompt). There's a check of the boot image built into the updater and if you attempt installation it will wipe your phone back to stock.
D**k move Samsung, d***k move.
I was a fool to initially think that the update juuuuuust might be Marshmallow. And then I thought, "I have AT&T. They would've made the announcement before just releasing the OTA. Hell, they would've made a big deal out of it, even; as if they're doing us a favor. " And so, I took a Valium and went to sleep.
This update seems to break mms for many of the users myself included verified with AT&T that is indeed related to it Samsung is on process of updating. Anyway if you happen to get it just boot your phone to safe mode and then use mms there and restart back to normal, it works after . And hopefully marshmallow will be soon

I'm still getting MMS texts, what was broken?
So far I've noticed my battery life is better than it was before, on the OJ7 update i had a very odd drain as well as issues with my bluetooth and wifi that were only fixed with a reboot......so far knock on wood they seem to be resolved but it should take a few more days to fully confirm. I did also try Enhanced LTE again and just as before I had a nice drain on my battery so they still don't have that working great yet (my area has weak LTE and switches between LTE and 4G on a normal basis).

Pictures, wasn't able to send or receive. Some problem with the default app. Plus it deleted all my old pictures from the texts thread.

Probably, but I still got problems with hangout and mysms, when AT&T recommend me I use those apps.

Factory reset might be your only option till the update hits, tough luck
