[Q] Desire Bravo Signal Problems - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

A big problem occurred after re flashing
Hi guys!
I have first flashed a new rom a year ago.Since then I have only problems with this DESIRE BRAVO.A week ago I started to try other versions of rom, but no results.Actually the problem is that the clock loses synchronization ,does not stay connected to the GSM network ,batery drains fast.
At this time i tried different rom's ,diffrent radios and RIL's.I realy don't know what else to doo.
I have diseble the WCDMA now i am on GSM only and i dont have any problems with the network but the internet....is very slow.
If one of you have any ideas...Please help

APN not connecting after 6 - 12 hrs

Hi guys, I am not sure if anyone else has experienced this before, I have done a bit of searching.
If I connect my data connection (APN) at night it will work fine, if I disconnect it, go to bed, then wake in the morning and try to reconnect the APN , it will fail. The only solution is to turn on airplane mode, then disable it, then reconnect my data (APN).
I have updated to the latest (leaked) radio, hoping that this might have fixed the problem, but its still happening. It's been happening ever since I bought the phone, on stock ROM, and on every other ROM I have tried (2.1 and 2.2).
Has anyone else seen this? Is it related to my carrier (Optus)?
It just seems that it wont reconnect if it hasnt been used for 6+ hours...
Please Help
Does anyone else turn off their data connection at night? Does it re-connect if you do?

I am with tpg (optus network) and have the same problem as you have. Airplane mode seems to reset it. I tried playing with the apn settings but then l lost connectivity. Hmm, can't explain it.

Thanks for the reply, it's finally good to find out that it's not just me. Maybe someone else out there would be kind enough to test it on a different carrier, either in AUS or elsewhere, just to find out of it is an Optus issue, because I have never heard anyone else mention it before.
Please, can someone do this test??? That would be totally cool.
Hi again,
I rooted using unrEVOked 3.1 and am now running the ROM listed below in my signature on an A8183 (Telstra) model desire.
Since I turn the data off and on as I need it and since the ROM flash, haven't had a problem. So I don't know if it was OPTUS or the TELSTRA standard HTC ROM. Next time I use my Telstra SIM, I will test and tet you know.
Cheers

Thanks mate, just to let you know I have tried a few roms and had no luck, until now. I think it was actually the latest radio (32.42.00.32U_5.09.00.08) update that has fixed it. Seems to be fine now.
I'm getting this same issue on mine, Telstra Desire on Optus. Maybe I should simply root it and be done with it? Only thing stopping me I'm worried I'll have radio issues after. Does 850 UMTS still work fine once you get rid of the Telstra rom? I'm on Optus now but have a Telstra sim for when I'm out in the middle of nowhere.

Gave in and installed the new radio and pays. That stupid Optus issue is gone as well now, connects properly as soon as wifi is gone. No problems with 850 Telstra either.

But i went to settings -wireless & networks -Mobile networks - Access Point Names and click reset to default option worked fine after this process. apn works fine even after dis and reconnecting to data connection I hope this helps you guys

How is your 3G connection since latest radio install?

This isn't related to any particular ROM as I have tasted this with various sense and none sense ROMS... Has anyone since using the latest radio had issues with connecting to 3G or having very strange fluctuations, where the signal might go dead completely then back up to full?
I seem to be experiencing this with 32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20
nope seems fine with mine. OD rom in Australia

The mentioned Radio is really poor in 3G Network. Especially change between 3G and EDGE. When I disconnect from Wifi it too often doesnt connect to the GSM or 3G again - the bars are there, you can phone but cant use data connection.
I hope there'll be a updated radio soon!
Im not happy with 5.09.00.20.
Hi,
I'm also experiencing a poor 3G connection with this radio.
I'm not happy with that.
Vodafone Spain, also same while itinerance in Portugal, USA.
Best
this radio has been absolutely fine for me.
having poor reception at singapore here too...
should i downgrade the radio?
Working best for me. From Malaysia.
Not working at all well for me. All was working great until I flashed to this radio. I'm now experiencing complete signal drops at least once an hour, have to toggle airplane mode to re-enable.
I tried rolling back to each other radio bar the first 3 or 4 with the same result.
Could it be something else or am I missing something when rolling back the radio?
It works fine for me as long as I stay in Copenhagen, but I've experienced losing signal altogether when travelling, this didn't happen before, so I think it's because of the radio.
I have a weird issue where I never seem to be able to access the Internet in any way until the connection icon changes from "3G" to "H". Is this normal? I haven't noticed this on the stock radio but then I didn't keep it that long...
Still having this "issue". Anyone else?
New version is working really better here.
Where could one get that version? And is it supposed to work on any ROM without breaking it?
I have the 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 radio and am on Telus.
I have the same issue as you. When the icon shows 3G my internet doesnt work at all but as soon as it changed to H (bang) full speed internet..
It did it for me on the 32.43 radio but not on stock. Anyone know what the stock Telus Radio is?
Guys you do know on telus we dont have a 3G network its strictly "H" that would be why your internet does not work. I would like to know how you managed to get stuck in 3G as i never have.
I have no idea - i just updated radio and rom to 2.2 Official (but rooted) - i entered the apn settings from the telus website.
When on internet things will be fine, internet loading (H in task bar) and then suddenly it will turn to the 3G icon and internet will freeze until the H icon comes back. Strange...
When i go into the settings and check my phone model it says its a HTC Desire A8181 - i checked the internet and this model is 3G Dual-Band 900/2100MHz.
Before i flashed a 2.2 rom my model showed as HTC Desire 8182, which is 850/1900 3G.
Could this be why its getting stuck on 3G instead of H?
My model also displays HTC Desire A8181 and I'm running a 2.2 ROM.
I don't remember what it said before on the Telus stock rom, but I could try flashing it back to see, since I have it in backup.
If you could try flashing it back that would be great - i think i have my Nandroid backup but its on my works computer...

wifi problem with gingersense roms

hi guys, since I started trying gingersense roms, I alway had the same problem, wifi drops when signal is low. I never had this problem with froyo roms. There is a fix for this problem? This is very annoying for me, because in my home wifi signal is always low, but I havn't problem with other devices.
Thanks.
Some news, if I switch off 3g data connection, WiFi hasn't any problem, but if I turn it on, WiFi connection drops and I must go to WiFi settings and it riactivate itself.

Are you sure this was working on Froyo?
From my experience I can say this was the same with 2.2 (Desire stock ROM).
Not really sure this is a bug btw. If I tell my device it can use 3G networks I think I should expect it to switch to 3G as soon as Wi-Fi signal becomes unreliable...

Now I'm using leedroid 2.4.1 and WiFi works great, in any place in my house, wifi signal never drops.

Yes this is the right behavior, but when WiFi drops, if I go in WiFi settings, my device automatically reestablish the wifi connection. This seems a bug!
Also got the same problem here.
I tried to change radio to 5.17.05.23 and i've changed wifi advanced settings to improve wifi signal, but the problem is the same. When wifi signal is poor, it drops and I must go in wifi settings to reestablish connection.

Try changing channels on the WiFi router.

I don't think I can do that with my university internet... and it shouldnt be the channels, the phone seems to be the problem, more specifically the ROM
I'm having this problem also. Until Insertcoin 2.0.1 it was ok. Since the first GB releases Wifi drops much earlier than before if the signal gets worser .. atm I'm using Insertcoin GB 1.0.3
Same problem with reflexs 2.0.5

Hrrrm i just flashed Leedroid 3.06 just to test it here... i have no issues, i am actually able to connect to an open network down the street...
I also flashed the latest radio avail too
Leedroid 3 is based on Bravo Gingerbread HTC Asia WWE 3.06.707.0
I' talking about Ace S 2.36.405.8 WWE base, Gingerbread 2.3.3 android (GRI40) based ROMs, like insertcoin or reflex s.

Yes there are many places, that I know, my Wifi is working flawlessly with Froyo ROMs (eg. my bed, in the back of my garden or the wc at work ), and where is no connection, or where I have to connect manually with GB ROMs.
I was wondering,ifI this is a issue with my phone only ... but it seems not
Is there a fix for this available?
I'm having this problem also. I'm using InsertCoin GB 1.0.3
With Insertcoin 1.0.5 and Blade wifi fix (downloaded from market) the the situation has improved, but the problem has not yet been resolved.
I got the same problem with WiFi dropping when 3g is on. Also with leedroid 2.3 my 3g was off but connected by itself when there was no WiFi around. With Insertcoin its not working.
Same issue here with Oxygen 2.1.3 and Radio 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08.
Cant confirm if its 3G related or not. WiFi connection was stable for 10min with 2g only. Another 10min with 3g enabled and i've got a disconnect again.
I've the same problem since upgarding to GB ROM.
I found a fix for Desire S - see link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051674
Any chance to have the same for Desire?
Thank you

Problem with 3g

Hello guys,
Well a friend of mine sell me this GSM one V, he tell me the phone has already been unlocked an rooted but when i put my sim card i noticed that the phone had no signal so i decide to proove with another rom (my sense RC 2.0) didnĀ“t work, so I tested in the settings and I noticed that when forcing the network mode to 2g the phone gets signal and worked properly but when I try to use 3G or 2G/3G phone signal disappears and I can not navigate or call, so.. Do you have any idea of what could be happend? maybe the 3g radio got damaged?

[Q] Looking for explaination for weird GPS and losing LTE signal problem

I have encountered some wired problem I can not explain.
I hope someone could shed some light on my problem. and potential help others.
I was running cm 10.2, one day I noticed my GPS was malfunctioning. Sometime, I don't get locked GPS signal when navigating.
I re-flashed cm 10.2. It didn't help.
I then upgraded both modem and bootloader to I747UCUEMJB and installed one of stock 4.3 based rom.
After that, my GPS is back, however, I noticed I lost my LTE signal and could easily lost signal every now and then. (I got no signal for about one minute each time)
I then unplugged my SD card, and reformat the whole phone and flashed cm 11. This time, my GPS is broke again, and no LTE.
I started to think it was a hardware problem.
However, I flashed the famous Dandroid 5.4. Magically, both GPS and LTE is fixed. I got strong GPS and LTE signal all the time.
Any explanation, Anyone?
