Installed the US OTA on my Euro edition, and flashed the eu modem over it, but I seem to be dropping signal all the time, definitely a lot more than I used to. Anyone else finding this? What can I try to fix it? Thanks
Try flashing back to the software designed for your device?
Hahaha i expected that
Hi,
The radio should be the same you had on kitkat before the upgrade so same performance IMHO.
My XT1092 converted to XT1095 lollipop with the same method works fine on the cellular data, im having some strage bluetooth issues when getting in the car. It doesn't pair 50% of times and i have to reboot to have proper pairing.
Modem are made for a specific ROM version. Mixing a KitKat modem with a lollipop ROM is for me a bad idea. Sure, it can work...or not. You generally end up with a device that work sometime but with a lot of radio bugs.

Hello everyone,
I have question about 4.4.2. This night I went to settings to check if there is os update available and after half year maybe i can update again but now to 4.4.2 KitKat.
Can you tell me if it's good idea to update to 4.4.2. because i've seen some people are writing online about 4.4.2 issues...? Does this mean for all devices or?
I did not use any custom rom-s, and didn't do any os modifications, even i didn't "root" it.
Currently it is using 4.3. android and everything works well, but as you may think i'm pretty curios about 4.4.2 and i don't belive i can ignore that but i just want to know about some problems if any..
I repeat, it is offical update, not custom.
Thanks in advance

OMG. I've done update last night and i have these issues now:
- overheating of device (back,bottom) - with time it is heating less as i can see..
- 3g is disconnecting every half second
I'm now trying to fix these issues but as i can see i will now need to use custom rom
:crying:
Just to confirm that there is no overheating anymore. And 3g is now working because of some other not important reasons.. it was nothing to upgrade. I didn't do anything and now everything is fine. Overheating was because of inital initialization only i'm thinking. Anyway, even i didn't test it fully i didn't had any other problems and i can confirm that upgrade is fine.
Hey guys,
in the beginning, sorry for my bad english (native german). I have a problem with my I9295 aka S4 Active. Since the update to 4.4.2, my phone gets thrown out of the network. Wlan and Bluetooth is fine. Now I flashed the official Samsung DOB4 firmware. Yes, I've downloaded the file multiple times, and the md5 sum was always right. After I flashed it, I was very happy because my cellular network was working again, I could make some calls, etc. But after 20 minutes, it started again. No network. Well, my IMEI was null, and to fix it I had to root. After rooting, my IMEI is there again (yes, the right one) and everything worked fine and was still working, up to yesterday. IMEI still there, baseband too, everything seems fine, but I can't get network. I have to reboot multiple times to get it working again, after that it's working maximum a day, after that, no network again . Atm, i've flashed CM12, but the error is still occuring. I'm very desperate, I hope somebody can help me.
I have a quite similar problem:
My I9295 loses service randomly. Happens quite often.
When I try to go to Settings/More Networks/Mobile Networks I am told "No SIM ..."
SIM is in and had been active. Phono tells me I have network reception.
After reboot it works for an hour or 20 minutes or whatever it wants to.
Sometimes it reconnects after a while, sometimes not.
When I leave it on during night netx morning reconnect works only via reboot.
SIM reader had been replaced.
Problem persists with genuine 5.0.1, with this one: [ROM][Official Nightly CM12/Unofficial CM12.1][5.0/5.1.1] builds for I9295
and WizCyan ROM.
Any suggestions?
BTW I use a TWRP recovery
Possible reason explained here

Enjoy
Thanks for the hint.
Not sure if I get this. The problem was also there with the genuine Samsung ROM (lolipop)while the thread talks aout losing modem function after flashing custom ROM.
About previous I am not sure as I bought it used with 4.2.2 on it.
I updated to 4.4 and then 5 OTA, all genuine.
Only because the mobile kept on losing network I switched to custom ROM, but the problem persists.
At the moment I use the Pac-Man ROM 5.1.1 where it seems to be more stable.
Strange!
@augek
The linked thread isn't only about custom roms - you can end up with partly flashed baseband on genuine if you don't power off before download mode and flash using Odin.
Was the replacement job of SIM reader done by a qualified person?
Following your Suggestion i flashed the genuine lollipop with odin. Yes i switched of Prior to flashing.
And Yes the Person Who did the card reader Job is qualified.
Still the Problem persists.
So to me the question is if the Firmware (driver) is the Problem of my sim card. The sim i tried on my s4mini and doesn't cause Problems so far as far as i noticed.
P****es me of somehow.
Hi guys,
Need some advise on how to deal with this issues.
When I use stock Rom, it's all good. Perfectly fine. No drop outs on mobile network.
But when I flashed custom rom (Liquidsmooth, PureNexus, Chroma etc..), my mobile network keep dropping out every 1 minute. I'm on Optus Australia network. I tried all different rom and it's The same issues except stock rom.
Checked the radio for all stock and custom rom after flash, all the same radio.
Please advise what else can I do to find out what's the root cause?
Cheers.

When using custom ROMs, ensure your APN is correct.

It's a known issue for some folks that data either doesn't connect, I'm one of those unlucky N6 owners that has had that issue.
My issue was with all cm based Roms wouldn't or couldn't connect to my carrier and all aosp based Roms would connect and hold a data signal without any issue.
I believe there's commits that are not merged in cm based Roms.
Also I had to flash the M preview radio as well.
It was trial and error for me to see which Roms would connect.
I flashed every single Rom and above it all I have a moto 360 that really is a pain in the a** when flashing any Rom.
The only solution I had now is to connect to DATA instead of WIFI everytime when I restart the phone. Let it connect for around 5 minutes, then switch to WiFi.
This way it won't drop out anymore.
Till a better solution is out, I guess I just had to keep doing this instead.
@flashallthetime , thanks for your input
Hi guys i have a story to tell you... my WiFi doesn't work on XT1058 5.1... i thought was a Lollipop related issue so wanted to downgrade to 4.4.4 and see if the problem really was related to android version, but it isn't. I downgraded successfully from 5.1 to 4.4.4 with your tutorial, but the WiFi problem persist. Now i know i'm really screwed up becouse i tried i believe everything possible...
- Airplane mode
- Factory reset
- Cache wipe
- Full wipe
- Custom rom
- Custom kernel
- Android 4.4.4
- Different AP's and routers
- Delete wpa supplicant conf...
So i don't know what to do. Te specific problem is that WiFi can see available networks, but randomly some of them disappear and others show up, and when i try to connect for ex. to my home network, it says "connecting" and then "saved", with all networks happens the same. Does anyone has a clue, or maybe somebody in the same situation?
I have similar problem before. I tried returned to full 4.4.2 stock and no go.
In the end , I send it to moto and they replace me a new one which costs me 100 bucks.
I think It could be a hardware problem and might caused by running wifi hotspot too often...

When I rooted my Droid Turbo the wifi stopped working.
I try to turn the WiFi on and it immediately goes back off.
How do I get it running again?
XT1254
It is running version 5.1 with 23.21.44.quark_verizon.verizon.en.US vzw
Build number SU4TL-44
I have flashed the 44 again with no luck.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Try re-flashing the radio for .44.
You can even try flashing the .49 radio.
There's both ADB and TWRP-flashable versions here:
[Droid Turbo XT1254] Bootloader & Radio Packages (+Unlocked warning removal)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/development/droid-turbo-xt1254-bootloader-radio-t3259327
Still no worky
Thanks,
I re-flashed and still no worky.
Any other suggestions?

Maybe flash the full .49 (Lollipop) firmware, maybe flash the 6.0.1 OTA update? Since your bootloader is unlocked you are safe. We have those here available in this forum. Here's the 6.0.1 OTA update:
[OTA] Official Marshmallow build MCG24.251-5
http://forum.xda-developers.com/dro...ota-official-marshmallow-build-mcg24-t3512813
(Do NOT attempt to install that if you have an encryption turned on.)
If those don't work, then it's something hardware related, I would presume. Just unlocking bootloader and "rooting" shouldn't affect anyone's wi-fi capability.
________
Is there SOMETHING ELSE you have installed that might affect Wi-Fi? Some battery save app would turn off and turn on Wi-Fi at different times? Something xPosed module like Smart Network? Some app or setting that is supposed to recognize a GPS location and do a certain action, like connect/disconnect Bluetooth? (But such apps can also control Wi-Fi.) One such app is Tasker, but there are plenty of others. Some people even have a couple of apps like that doing similar tasks and it's easy to have conflicts or just simple human error.
One time I configured my wife's volume control app to turn to "normal" volume at 8am and go silent at 8:30pm. Unfortunately, I accidentally chose 8:30am. (I swear I didn't, but there it was.) For two days, she had totally silent phone except for 30 minutes! And I'm the tech guy in the family.
