[Q] Signal Issues

Hey, i'm using Warm-Z Nightly 4-13, on radio 11.19.
I see my signal tend to disappear then reappear every so often. During that time, i'm not able to do anything that involves the radio like data or sms or phone calls.
Is it because of the actual radio? Should I downgrade to 07.28 again?

That Sounds to me as if its radio related. Did you flash the radio when you put on the new nightly? Or have you been using that radio for a while?

I've been using this radio for about a month or two now.

Damn auto correct......Hmmm.....well in that case this is kind of odd. Maybe the 4/13 nightly build had a glitch with that radio. I'd try either restoring your old nightly or just flashing a different nightly. If you still seem to have problems then I would try a new radio. But if this radio just recently started glitching with your new nightly I would definitely say just change to a different nightly and see if it helps

It's been with all my ROMs lol. I just happened to be using Warm-Z right now. I'm on 4-14 right now and it's still doing it. I'm about to flash back to 07.28.. i just don't know if that's safe.

I'm actually on 07.28. As well as warm z twopointtwo 4/7 nightly with the same kernel. You'll be fine.....flash the new radio just make sure you know what you're doing before you start

Well, here goes. If anything. I got Best Buy on my side.
BTW, Warm-Z 4-14 has a new kernel. Ziggy's 04-13 kernel. In case you update.

Ooohhh that's sweet.....that's the kernel that you were telling me in the other thread had havs correct?

It's a different version of it. The current one that's in the nightly is a beta and well Ziggy took off all links if the kernel so incubus was lucky to have it before it got deleted. Upgrade to 4-14 its really fast.

Nope. I don't pay attention to that stuff. I usually try to stay away from too many kernel mods.
But the new kernel its running doesn't bump charge at all, so you should like it.

And forgive me one more time bump charge is just the technical term for the ten percent drop then change process the phone goes through correct?

Plus any news on that radio flash for ya? And when I go to flash this new nightly will I have to do a full wipe since it flashes kernel too? Cause I really don't like having to restore my apps and data with titanium

Sorry for the late reply, I have school and work.
But yeah, I updated to the leaked EVO 04.08 and the signal increased by -5 and i don't see the random disappearing anymore. When you flash the nightly, only wipe CACHE and DALVIK-CACHE. Do NOT wipe DATA unless you plan to start over.

Cool lemme know if you got more probs and ill do the same!

Wifi tether speeds...

I kept arguing with myself, if I should post this here or in the development forum, or what, so if a moderator feels the urge to move it, please do so.
Should end user speedtest via wifi tether (iPad) be somewhat similar to the results of 3g speedtest on the phone? I am trying to decide if I am getting in the neighborhood as what I should. I can be parked in the middle of a full bar signal area (I know, I know...the bars aren't fool proof, but all 4 at least means more than none or 1) and I only get about .9mbps on the phone and then about .7mbps on the iPad.
I'm using my Dinc (of course) and I'm running CM7 Final and the latest Incredikernal 2.6.37.6. I'm also using the wifi tether that's stock with CM7.
Thanks,
Roger

What radio are you using? Ive tried different radios and 4.08 and 11.19 work best for me for signal and data speed.

4.08 works great for me

I am using the stock HTC radio. As much of a cutting edge geek as I am, I'm really nervous about messing with the radio. Is it honestly as iffy as they make it sound, or is it no different than anything else, just gotta pay attention to what you're doing?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

Check md5 sum, flash with full(ish) battery, and don't pull the battery while its flashing. Oh and make sure your SD is formatted fat32. Check those things and you'll be fine.

Download the zip, backup your current rom in recovery. Then wipe cache and dalvik cache, flash the zip file.

I did it all with no problem just don't flash the kernel

Can these be flashed with Recovery 3.0 or should we downgrade to 2.5?

Flashed on CM7 N87 and all is good!

Updated Kernel

Tiamat 4.0.4, CM7 nightly, RA 2.3
Confirmed all is working after flashing the radio update. Though still 1x in my office building due to interference from the verizon/att tower in the back if the property. Sprint refuses to attach to it, lol

I may stand corrected here, but in order to get the full benefit of the new radios you should update your profile and prl. Yeah, it probably isn't needed necessarily considering the pain if your on an AOSP rom, but a good idea because with the profile update it helps the network recognize that you have the update.

you can flash ANY rom made for the htc evo4g no restrictions . Some themes only work with specific roms. If your looking for a good rom that has ALOT of themes and mods check out TommyTomatoes classic rom and then MikG

You flash themes that are made for the exact rom you have installed. For example, flash a MikG theme for a MikG rom. Also make sure that the theme is for rom version you have installed. ROM could be updated and an older theme may not work for that version.

You always do a full wipe when flashing a new Rom everything except sdcard 3x . Tommys version 005 finale 12/26 is awesome

I would go into recovery and wipe the dalvik cache then cache and then factory reset or whatever order you wanna do it in there is also a zip I believe its called caulkins format or something like that there is a link floating around here lol it will wipe everything 3 times for you just to make sure you get it all.. hope this helps you out.

The very first thread in this forum answers ALL of these questions. There is a reason stickies exist.

idk what happened to the signal..

i was rooting my friend's s2 and he wanted paranoid android. so i downloaded that, installed the rom and gapps and his signal gave out. he had the phone for over a year and he used it to tell me he was outside so for sure it isnt stolen. i thought maybe it was the rom so i installed slim bean and still nothing. i tried my sim and nada. i didnt mess with any of the apn settings. the signal with no data would come in for about 3 seconds then give out again. maybe i should update the firmware? would anyone know where i could find the latest one? im so lost hah.. thanks xda community
