[Q] Can anyone help me? - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ok so, i recently noticed that my signal is going out hardcore, and in places that i normally would have a signal. When I do get a signal its not a strong one. Is there anything that I can do to fix this? Ive tried flashing different roms to see if it was just the rom Im using, but it doesnt help. Ive always used Super CM7 and this just recently started happening, like in the last week. Please help me, with any ideas you may have. Id greatly appreciate it.

You could start flashing different radios and see which one works best for you.

Which radio would u recommend for Htcclay's SuperCM7 2.3?
Also I've never fashed a radio before. Once u flash by loading it on the root of your sdcard. Do u need computer access or adb to remove it before u can get back into clockword mod, like u do when u flash other things thru bootloader on the root of your sd. Can you help me with the steps please, id appreciatte it very much.

I cant recommend you a radio .you need to see which one is best for your
location and other factors, so you probably need to try a few and see which one
works the best for you. you will find everything you need in this thread

[Q] mytouch slide rooting problems

Alright hey guys im new here.
But i really want to put a different rom on my slide. So i know in order to do that i need to be rooted. I cant figure out how to permently root it. Ive tried a ton of ways including the one on here and unlocker. i cant get it to work. The only way i can is by using universal androot. But thats just a soft root so i cant put a dif rom on it.
So im hoping some one can help me out. Someone that has actually done it on there slide would be awesome. Could you guys please give me a step by step on how you did it? Im kinda of a noob when it comes to this. Thanks guys
Btw right now i have the stock 2:1 froyo.
Do you have the 1.35 ota update installed? think the root method will be slightly different if you do.

Okay I have 1.35
ok so here is the instructions I followed and it worked fine, I was on 1.35 just like you. Make sure you have the rom you want to use saved on your root directory of the sd card along with the other files from the instructions

Also, once you root, to gain perma root, or S-OFF (for flashing custom splash1 and recoverys), use AlphaRev, its in the stickies!

[Q] G2 Bluetooth not working!

I'm new to this forum so I have to go slow. I just bought this G2 to replace a HD2. It has the stock 2.2.1 Froyo rom. It is unlocked so I'm hoping I can fix it. Everything works ok except the bluetooth. When I try to turn it on the light just go dim then returns to bright and never turns on. I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this?
Also I was reading that there is a new rom out, the leaked TMOUS G2 Gingerbread 2.13.531.5 and was looking for instructions on how to flash. I'm looking for some newbie instructions on how to flash.
Any help would be appreciated.
Well it could be your actual rom that might not let the bluetooth work so I think its a great idea to change it
Okay since your phone is unlocked I'm assuming its rooted...so ima post a clip that helped out on how to change roms some time ago just let me search for it

Ok the guy I got my phone said he just unlocked the phone with a code so I'm not sure if it is rooted?? any way to check?
hmmm well if he unlocked with a code then im pretty sure its not rooted, check if you have an app called superuser
if youre not rooted i suggest u to use the gfree method (search the forums) its probably the best
Yes I do have superuser in my apps.
ok ill send you a pm

Switching ROMs and pre rooted kernel

I have done some reading, so if I missed a link with the answer, pass it on...
So I am currently using ZedomaxEpicTouchKernel[v3][1.6GhzOC][Quadrant 4500+][SU3][CWM]
I am looking at ROMs now, even though I said that I wouldn't, and it seems like the ROMs come with their own kernels.
I want to do a 2.3.5 ROM, possibly cyanogen, but don't want to lose the 1.6g kernel.
Do I flash the custom ROM, then just odin the zedomax kernel over it?
This is my first sammy phone, if it was a moto I wouldn't even be posting.
Thanks
PS - my CWR only backs up/restores after I pull the battery out (then it starts working). Any advice on this is appreciated too.
I'm in the same in the same boat. I am from an EVO 4g and I guess am used to just flashing that in that method.
I'm not exactly sure what to do here either. I sent a google+ message to max, but I really don't even expect him to respond.
Where r u getting that 2.3.5 rom? Was it baked for THIS device? U can't just flash any rom onto the device. Look at development section for roms 4 this device.
Cyanogen has not been brought to this device yet, but here's hoping.
Someone else correct me if I'm wrong.

He is looking for a rom.. Drop the 2.3.5. He clearly does not mean it.. However his question and the reason for this topic remains..
For example, I am running AE (So I assume bubby's kernal + CWM), but I would like to use the zedomax overclock kernal V3. However anything and everything I thought I knew about flashing seems to be gone... It isn't bad I just need pointed in the right direction so that I can educate myself on what is going on here.
I assume this has to do with the root method. Simply because I don't understand why my recovery is attached to my kernal. I'm used to just running CWM.. Again. I'm lost.
Yeah, I think I see what you mean. My last two devices were htc so I'm kinda lost too. I guess my eyes caught the 2.3.5 & Cyanogen reference and I got confused. I believe that if you flash a rom with a different kernel it will replace whatever you've got. At this point I would be very reluctant to flash anything without cwm coming with it.

[Q] Htc Dezire with no service after rom

So i own a dezire z from vodafone romania mine was factory unlocked so i used the gfree metod for rooting first i downgraded cuz it was 2.3.3 and i was using androdamus build for like a month afetr that i used miui still no problem , and then i tryed lightsense rom and my phone didnt work anymore i mean it start it works bluetooth and wifi but my phone as 3g and signal and carrier is not its just searching and nothing if i search after it manualy it finds the network but it wont connect.
I had a backup of androdamus and i restored it still no luck what can i do to make it work again i really need it anything i just want it to be a working phon e again .
Oh and something that really pisses my of is that all roms now go as ITALIAN the default language and no service whatsoever so please HELP ME
Try updating radio, try changing/adding apn
Very strange that changing roms would effect your phone in these ways but if switching back to roms that worked still won't this would be my best bet. Also if you did a nandroid backupl restore that and see what happens
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium
thankyou for the fast response im sure that its not from the apn since i manualy added it as my carrier advised me i tryed the same setting on my old HTC tytn 2 and they worked so its the phone that shoud be blamed
aa can u please recommnd me a good radio ....i really dont know from where to download it and whichi one is the good one shoud i search after the one that im currently using ?
Did you try a nandroid yet?
As for the radio there is a thread in the developers section with all the options, just search for it
I can't recomend one for they vary on what works. What is best where you live will be diffrent than for me. Trial and error
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium
no i didnt tryed that , what do you mean by nandroid backup ?
If you have a custom recovery, clockwork or 4ext, there will be an option for a nandroid backup (some custom recoveries do bart backups) it is highly recomended to do a nandroid before flashing anything to your phone in case something goes wrong. Think of it as a restore point. If you flash a rom or change some setting and you cant/don't want to fix it, you just restore with nandoid backup and all is well

I still cant use my sim i did full wipe after i rooted it again and im back to androdamus and still i cant make it work what can ido someone please help me

Service issues/RUU

What's up XDA.
I posting here on behalf of my sister, who owns this phone. I actually have a One S (great phone btw ). Anyways she's been having some issues with her data connection. There's literally zero connection all the time. I noticed her APN's were gone and it wouldn't let me add them back, so i flashed Avatar ROM from Paranoid Android and they were missing again, but came back after a reboot. I wanted to run an RUU. The problem is, I cant find one anywhere. Links to an RUU or suggestions to get this straitened out would be greatly appreciated
Shes running the Avatar ROM right now.
PS: Even after selecting the APN, her service just wont come back. A guide on running the RUU would be appreciated too
If you've changed from anything other than another 4.2.x rom (as I believe avatar is) you'll have to flash a radio as well. UVMC6 or TLMC4 are the ones for 4.2.x ROMs.

Don't get mistaken! RUUs as far as I know are only for HTC devices.
And yes, you need to flash a newer radio for the new 4.2.2 ROMs.
Hope I helped
