Cm signal - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

With the latest cm nightly rom, my signal and wifi stays roughly at one or two bars... Any fix for that??

Hold it with your right hand lol. The wifi antenna is on bottom left. Give it 5 seconds I bet your signal goes to 4.

What about the signal portion?? I have had only one if not two bars... Is that suppose to be an issue with the Tom? Just wondering...

If I'm not mistaken the "signal bars" on AOSP ROMs actually represent data strength. To find your signal strength try going to settings/about phone/status/signal strength. That's where it is on MIUI anyway.

I've always found the signals in cm to be fishy both data and wifi. Try downloading wifi analyzer from the market to get a read on the signal. I can be right next to my router sometimes and it still only shows 2 or 3 bars.

Weak GPS!?

anyone having a weak gps issue? i am. goog maps or navigate or telenav can't track me accurately. ot can find a location but it sucks finding me and navigating. ive been in every major city from san diego to ny to new orleans atlanta dallas etc... military and on vacation and no matter where i go the gps sucks. it does however have a crack on the top left corner over the front camera if it matters. i have the latest prl update and all

I think there is an issue if you leave your phone on for a certain number of days, the GPS stops working accurately. Try rebooting your phone
ive tried that. it still sucks.

You might want to exchange it. I use mine in L.A. and Orange County and it is pinpoint accurate. I was actually surprised how well it was working. It was exactly right on when I had to take an offramp to another freeway or during surface street driving. I am using Telenav

I agree exchange it. Our gps on telenav here in Houston works perfectly, very quick and accurate, beating google maps every time.
download gps status and toolbox it will fix your issues. If not then return the phone is your best bet..
ok, let me try that. i drove through Houston last week and my navigation thought i was onbthe road but i was on the katy toll

Download this, reset your GPS, if it still wont work I'd take the phone in for a replacement. My GPS wouldn't lock on last night, I had to use this to get it to work.
I had the issue above but once i reset the phone it seems to be very quick in pinpointing my location
working ok now. lets see when i get into san diego tonight service sucks here in pensacola

I tried the app but navigation just says searching for gps?
Any ideas?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
that's what mine said constantly. i used the app then restarted the gps and eventually out started working.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
Unless I'm missing something, there's a thread hiding in the Dev section that's supposed to fix GPS troubles. I don't know if it's a different issue from what you're having, but thought I'd put that out there.
I tried searching for it. Can't find it in dev.
My gps sucks! It's useless
I tried the apps and resetting gps cache. Still nothing

There have issues reported with the uvlh1 modem. Perhaps you have a very weak signal? Maybe flash a different modem?
Well. I have tried other radios as well. Whenever i restart my phone, it takes time for the network to register. How long does it take for your network to register after a restart?
About signals, the signals are full in my area.

I'm having the same problem /: It doesn't matter what Radio i flash either.
It takes about 4 mins to almost half an hour to register.
I just booted into Recovery to do something and then rebooted and its almost been an hour and it won't register. I'm without signal right now, all I have is Wifi.
I can reboot it, battery pull, search for network (T-Mo and AT&T both appear, but when I tap on T-Mo it stays registering forever) and nothing.
This is driving me nuts. It's been going on for almost a month now.

So far the fastest registered radio for me is the uvle1 but it has broken voice problems for the call receivers on my phone.
I guess we are the only ones having this issue.. no solution so far

Cm10 and CM10.1

What is the trick to get the mobile data to kick in. The signal bars show signal but they are greyed out, not blue like when connected. I tried updating profile and prl but cannot connect even tried over WiFi but no luck. Sprint GNex GA02 modems.
I never had this problem with my OG Epic4g

No will not connect.but not getting 3g services im stuck on 1x flash any other rom and I'm good sprint profile updates signal is there all blue lit up

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
The pick is not of the issue but that is what the bars look like this us pa3 with mobile data off
Try different radios. Fh05 work much better than ga02 for me
Ya in my area I don't have 4g yet so I rely on 3g for everything
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Happened to me on BB7 and the fix was to change from LTE/CDMA to just CDMA (or vice versa) uncheck mobile data wait 15 or so seconds then turn it back on and then if/when I saw the 3g icon Id update profile then prl.
I have tried that, and mine still isn't blue. I switched from TouchWiz to CM10 last week and at first, the signal bars and WiFi indicator were both blue. Now they are grey. And yes, my Sync is on.

I worded that a little weird. At first, when I started using CM10, the indicators were blue. Now, they are grey.

Network Signal Display Problems

Hi
When my Hox is in a area with Medium Signal strengh the Display Shows half Signal. That's ok. But When i move in a area with strong connection the Signal display stays at half and not go to full. Using Internet or SMS changes nothing at the strengh in the strong area. Only if i Do a call, the signal strengh Display jumps to high. I hope you unterstand the Problem and can help me.
It is the same at sense 5 and Cm - Rom.
Chance Radio Rom didnt solve it also.

You see the bad signal in "nomal mode" and the signal strengh at/after a call.
All in the same area.
Try to change gsm/wcdma auto.

Signal worse after update

Has anyone else experienced a significant "decrease" in signal strength after the ota update?
I now get no signal in my house after updating where prior I would have enough to call, send and receive text and mms.
Now unless I'm on wifi I get nothing.
Suggestions?
