[Q] Rooted for the first time, lost any cellular connection. I need a step by step.

So I finally took the plunge today and rooted. I flashed the most recent Sprint version of ViperROM, and everything was going just fine and dandy, I was all giddy setting up my MoDaCo UI mods, etc, until I tried to send a text. Tried to send for 5 minutes, got the fail message. Well, that's weird. What about 3G data? Nope, nothing. Maybe the ROM is bad? I flashed the stock ROM by viperboy, also didn't work. Same problems. So now I'm stuck with no cellular connection and I need it soon. How do I fix it? (Note that I followed my tutorials step by step and everything works except cellular connection. Also note that it says I have service and that data is going in/out, but it's not actually sending/receiving anything. It seems that I need something called an RUU, but I have no idea what that is or where to get a correct one and how to flash it.
Please give me a step by step (I'm using TWRP if that matters), as this is my first time rooting or doing anything more advanced with my phone past advanced themes in Nova Launcher. I'll need links if you have them, or at least where to look. Please help me, because don't want to go back to stock after getting all my awesome tweaks already!
And yes, I have updated my PLR and Profile in the system updates menu, same results.
EDIT: I fixed it, yay! I tried clicking UICC unlock in the software update menu. It said no profile update available, and then it started working (it's actually faster than normal! ) It may have been the profile update that did it and it took a second to update, but it works now! Yay! I even rebooted to make sure it was going to stay after a shutdown, etc, and it did! I guess I should check all option before posting a thread next time... (If you can't tell I'm extremely happy it works!)
EDIT 2: It stopped working again :'(. Now I'm constantly losing the 3G connection that I "had" and messages and data only work about 10% of the time they say they're connected. Wifi still works. When I try updating the profile, it says it could not be updated and to try again later (this is after several tries and a reboot). I try to update the PLR and I get error code 1233. Apprently this is an HTC specific error with no know fix? I try to do the UICC unlock, and it gives me the same error as the profile message.
EDIT 3: It seems Sprint is having issues in my area, I will update again if they resolve it or reply to my tweet.
EDIT 4: They told me to go restart the booster thingy I have in my house, and now my connection is working for now...

[Q] Updated my Sam Ativ S to 8.1 and phone reboots constantly

Hi guys, i just updated my Samsung Ativ S today to the WP 8.1, and everything seems to work "fine".
EXCEPT that as soon as I turn off the phone and turn back on, it keeps on for like 20 seconds, sets to flight mode, and reboots. And it keeps doing it over and over again, it won't stop rebooting. I have tried to reset the phone configurations, but it resets again to WP 8.1, and I keep getting this bug everytime I turn the power off. Is there any way to reset it to the oldest firmware(8.0...)? Anyone else experiencing this?

1) hard reset your phone
2) after the configuration of Microsoft account, don't use backup, choose config everything again.
3) If you want to use cortana, choose english and United states for country, speech, display language etc.

Ativ S - Tim Sul - Rebooting Constantly
Dear,
After update my Ativ S, I'm experiencing the same problems discussed by CamilaRamos. I have done the Hard Reset and restarted the WP 8.1 without considering my MS Account. However, after I have inserted the Sim Card, the same problem start to occur again.
Thanks in advance,

I have samsung ativ s and after update 8.1 it is rebooting of one to one minutes.
All app are installed in internal memory, I don't use memory card.
I did many things, but nothing resolved my problem.
I wait that the Microsoft is looking to solve this, because I can't come back to GDR3 and need my phone for my job everyday.

If hard reset doesn't work, follow this steps::
1) reflash the Samsung ativ s rom (Windows phone 8.0 GDR3), following this step by step: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391138
2) The rom and CSC you can download here: http://tweaksparadise.com/download/anaheiim/?action=list&folder=7836
3) After reflash the Windows phone 8 GDR3 rom, reinstall the preview for developers and search again for updates, your phone will update again to Windows phone 8.1.
4) this will solve all issues.

I'll try this. I checked my CSC by the diagnosis app and it's ZTOALL3, but I only found ZTO for download. Is there any problem using this one?

No, no problem

So, I managed to reset my phone back to gdr3 with that tutorial using ZTO csc, but now I have to manually set the APN information to get my 3G connected, and as soon as i reboot the phone, it will erase those configs and I have to set it up again. Is there any way to save it undefinetly, or can I set my csc to ATO and how would I do it, or would it make any difference here?

I can tell you my story. I also updated my Br-Ativ S (pun intended) to 8.1, coming from a manually flashed GDR3. I had to hard reset the phone in order to start over and correct some bugs, including the one you described. I had a similar issue using the wrong GDR3 rom found on the intarweb.
Good luck!

Phone doesn't read my SIM

I have been using CM11 (14-03-2014 I believe), without major problems until yesterday. Sometimes my phone seemed to disconnect from my SIM and I had to re-enter my pin code to reconnect to my operators network. But as of yesterday my device doesn't seem to recognize the SIM card, It doesn't ask for a code at all and can't make any connection whatsoever. I didn't change a thing, this problem started out of the blue.
I wiped cache and dalvik, updated to the latest CM nightly (08-05) but that didn't make any difference. In other threads I read about the baseband that might need an update, but I can't check which version I have now because when I try to enter the hidden menu I get the no network connection error. The strange thing is that CM11 has worked with (I guess) the stock baseband.
Is my phone tripping or could it be that my SIM card is broken?
Help and thoughts will be very much appreciated

Try it on stock to be sure about it.

After some searching I found a phone that could fit a regular SIM card, a Blackberry 9900. My SIM worked perfect in this phone, so that is not the problem.
I Also did a complete wipe and installed a stable version of CM 10.1.3, but that didn't seem to help. I hoped that a downgrade would have done the trick. I might try a ICS ROM or the stock firmware, but I kind of lost hope and i'm starting to think this problem is hardware related in stead of software. I'll report back with results on stock firmware and the ICS ROM.
How can I make sure the SIM reader in my phone is working properly?

Sorry for double posting, but I got an update:
SIM wasn't working with ICS so I decided to go back to the stock ROM. However, when I tried to flash V20B.kdz with KDZ_FW_UPD, the program got stuck at wParam=2010 and iParam=210. The phone is now stuck in S/W Update mode, and I haven't found a way to restore it yet. I will argue a little more with my phone when I get back from work, I'll open a new thread on how to unbrick when I can't do it myself.

unable to install January security path update

I updated my moto x4 from Oreo to pie using flash using boot loader. my boot loader is still locked and software status is official too. It still is unable to update to January security update. Please help !!

yes I have also facing same issue... i have also try by safe mode but shows something not right .... reconnecting to server... might be Moto update Services try to connect moto server which has not able to connect due some issue in server... hope so this is issue...
you can connect to moto support team let me know what they are say for this issue.

They told to reset and try again.. to do that I got to backup my data which LL take time.. so on hold as of now

Yup, same here. I got the Android 1 Google Fi model (Bootloader unlocked, unrooted). I'll try again in a week and see if it resolves itself.

And another ~ bought 2, mine showed the update 3 days before my wife's but won't start (download and install now, via wifi only and it reverts back to the settings screen). She got the notification last night and it took first try. First time I've had this issue in the 4 months I've had the phone, just glad I'm not alone here....

Since you're official/fully stock, there's not really any alternatives besides factory reset or await for full image is available to manually flash via fastboot method. You do not need to unlock long as you stick with motorola firmwares. Links in FAQs thread.

Nothing new here? Mine keeps nagging me to do the update, start it and it shows getting to 17% on step 3 of 6, then just kicks me back out to the setting screen.
This is my first android phone (from a flip), couldn't get lineageos to work with my provider (RedPocket) and have neutered as much of the google crap as possible. Right on down to disabling all permissions for Play Store. Could that be part of my issue?

It has been nagging me since last few weeks, no solution apparently

New Update:
Could actually able to fix the issue by installing a vpn and set it as a USA based server.
My phone was bought in US and I was using it elsewhere. After using an USA based IP it downloaded the update and voila.

How to Unlock bootloader with no Wi-Fi or Data

I think I'm pretty much ****ed.
The thing is, I wanted to reinstall a stock version in my XT1900-6 but, in the process, I followed an old post here, and downgraded it to 8.0.0/OPSW27.57-40-14/19 (april 18 patch). The problem is, when I was running the script, I didn't pay attention that, at the end, the bootloader was being locked.
Now, I can't unlock it to flash another version.
When I try to go to Settings > Developer > Unlock OEM, the option is gray ("Connect to the internet or contact your carrier"). The thing is, I have no Wi-Fi nor my SIM card is working, only bluetooth is working.
I tried to update via sideload but I always get the error that adb wasn't able to mount the image and the code "Total xfer: 0.00x" in the cmd.
Is there some way to save my phone?

Well, im having the same problem too...
