Would rooting / flashing ROM cause bad data connection - Desire General

I have an Orange Desire.
I have recently loaded the Clockwise recovery, and flashed Modaco's ROM. I also updated the radio to version 32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20.
I now find that I have slightly erratic data connection ( noticible when I use satnav )
Any ideas?
cheers all

Yeah,i found the new radio not as good as the previous one. A lot of people have said the same thing.

Orange have been fixing their APN/mobile network, I'm guessing it was an upgrade due to high loads from all us smartphone n iphony users these days.
I flashed to another Rom midweek an thot I'd killed my 3g/h+ was goin to flash back to CM6 but loving my fm radio I was determined to fix it... turns out it was orange mobile data not my bodging or any WiFi bug I'd thought it was

I've downgraded my radio and gone back to PAYS 2.1
Too many probs with Froyo at the moment from wrong locale, market not working, laggy scrolling, gps and location not working, flaky wifi, etc
I appreciate what the modders are doing but froyo is not ready for daily use yet.

Howgh. It is as you said. Froyo is for masochists.

Working with Froyo since last week.
It's almost perfect. Radio is working correctly and functionality has been tried in deep. I've just found that orientation sensor is not precise as in 2.1. And I'm using: DJ Droid, A2SD+, Odexed. No problem with nandroid backups, nor with pc connection, nor with radio.

Well I've no idea whats going on , I went back to last nights back up reflashed the radio and its been fine. However I am not convinced.
My phone was locked to tmobile I got an unlock code of ebay for £8 killer , cant be locked now so I am happy with that.
I am going to try the other froyo release's I think it maybe something to do with Orange - the coverage is poor at work and maybe froyo isnt reattaching to the network once it loses coverage (i worked in the industry)
One thing baffles me , where and why do my widegts detach and disappear when I mount the phone as an memory stick for videos?

guys with the Locking issue >> Its not a UK network standard radio so you will always get sim locked, you need an unlock code to change your radio..

Signal Lost

sup guys
hope you can help me, ive got a serious problem with my desire. I've already flashed multiple roms, radios and RIL's. Atm im on 2.2 villain ginger with the newest radio and the right RIL for that radio download from the radio and RIL thread in this forum.
I get a Signal and internet, but as soon as i try using it by entering market or sending a sms or whatever, the signal breaks. First I lose internet and signal goes down to 1 or 2 points, then it cut offs entirely.
Sometimes I can use it 1 or 2 minutes, sometimes I can even send SMS, but in the end it will always break off and not come back until a reboot.
Using o2 in germany
Have you tried it with the ril that comes with the rom. I believe the ril's are only for sense roms and not aosp.

I've flashed the same radio as the developer now, and made a fresh install.
I still got the same problem, but it disappears if I stick to 2g and deactivate HSDPA..
Anyone can help me?

Phone keeps crashing at random after .30 radio update

I updated my Z with the new .30 radio and matched the RILs but now it keeps restarting at random when using it. It doesn't really matter what I do, it just turns black and then the HTC logo appears and it starts the ROM again.
I'm using Blackdroidmod 3.3.0 with the stock CM Kernel.
Does anyone got any idea what is going wrong?
Is that rmk's ril matcher you used? I didn't think it was compatible with CM or the .30 radio. Unless its been changed since the last time I saw it, in which case, my bad, lol.
Try flashing to the .26 radio, assuming you are on T-Mobile in the states and see if that fixes it. It might just be incompatibility between any of the ROM, kernel and radio with each other.

nope I used the matching RIL from the dev forum. And i'm on the Vodafone Netherlands network.
The .30 radio is for the US..but shouldn't give you shut down issues. You are using ultimate droid and flashed a cm kernal over it? Might be the issue considering UD has everything already built in.
Try different rom, reflash a radio for your area of the world

Try flashing just the .30 radio without the ril files and see if that helps, i have seen the new ril files for .30 radio giving people issues.

Well, after 2 crashes and a manual reboot + 1 call it stopped restarting no idea why it did that... it works totally fine now. I will keep you guys up to date.
Also the connection is much better now, it switches much faster between G, E, 3G and H + wifi. The battery usage seems to be okay and the GPS fix works fine.
Why is the .30 USA only? it's a quad band phone right? Vodafone got a tri band network in europe including Edge.
I am using .30 In Australia with no issues.
Where do i get the matching RILs?

Major radio issues; Cannot or can hardly connect to non-Wifi internet anymore

Hello,
I’m currently having major issues with the radio I flashed. I installed Virtuous Sense 2.0.0 with Unity V4 yesterday and flashed it with the recommended radio; 26.04.02.17.
It seemed to work fine, WiFi worked and I can send/receive texts and make calls.
However, today I noticed I was unable to surf the web on my mobile data plan. A reboot didn’t help either. I also noticed that the icon was showing 3g in an area which I know doesn’t have 3g. So I rebooted again and this time I could surf the web, but very very slowly. It took 5 minutes to open the maket.
Anyway, I flashed my old, original radio back (26.03.02.26) and the problem still remained.
As a last resort I flashed the newest radio (26.10.04.03) and the problems still remain.
I also tried reflashing the stock ROM, but that didn’t make a difference either, as well as the advanced kernel from virtuous.
I’m lost. Any help would be appreciated !
Thanks !
Sorry, but this is a prime example why flashing radios isn't needed unless you are having issues related to radio functionality.
Have you tried calling your service provider and ask them if they are having issues with data or provisioning?

I totally agree and I have learned from this. What's odd is that reflashing the original, working radio now doesn't seem to work anymore either.
I didn't call them, but a friend of mine who lives in my neighberhood who has the same service provider, doesn't have any issues.
Thanks

I would still call them and see if your device/sim is provisioned correctly.

I reflashed my old, original radio and this time I did not match RILs and all seems to be working as usual again.
Thanks for the input !

Wifi Problems

Hello,
i own a S-OFF Desire HD for about a year now and i've flashed serveral roms now.
For about a month i use Coredroid with a recommended radio and never got problems with it.
Since a couple of days i got serious wifi problems with the device.
I always use wifi when i am at home and it always worked but now i always loose connection. Then the device tries to reconnect, it works for a couple of minutes and then the connection is lost again.
I did not change my Wifi AP and i did only Market updates, nothing else changed.
I will try to reinstall the rom with a full wipe and test if it works better but i think this could be a hardware defect?
What do you think?
Thanks
Daniel
Have you re flashed the ROM yet?
