Bluetooth Frustration

I just swapped my phone out and received a new phones. now with the old phone which was the one i originally purchased, I could send a 4-6mb song via bluetooth in about a minute and a few seconds on Stock Verizon Rom, and on my rom im using at the moment The latest Mighty Rom Sense 2.1
Now on my replacement device ive tried on stock rom and The latest mighty rom it sends the files almost 10x slower if they go threw at all. Alot of times it goes at like dial up like pace when trying to send files over bluetooth...even small cab files that used to send on my old phone in under 20 seconds takes forever to send if they go through at all
when the files fail to go through it says Connection failed or lost
is it something wrong with my replacement device's bluetooth or is there something i can do to fix this issue? im thinkin about calling this in for another replacement

Do a hard reset and try again and/or go back to stock verizon 6.5 rom and try on it. If the stock rom is slow then the phone has issues.

Before going all the way back to a stock ROM, you might want to check and see if the ROM you're using has a different radio version than the stock one, that could be the source of degraded BT performance. Try whatever one came with the stock ROM, and see if it clears up the issue...if it does, then you should be able to keep the ROM you like, and just use the stock radio.

well im on my second replacement now i went all the way back to stock verizon 6.1 rom because i was having the same issues with the second replacement they sent me....slow bluetooth file transfer
im on stock verizon 6.1 now and im trying to pick up a samsung omnnia 2 but i cant pick it up at all and when the omnia 2 tries to pick me up it can find me but the pairing doesnt go through
the rom version is 1..18.605.6
the radio version is 1.87.00wv
is it a faulty device? is there anything i can do with the bluetooth to fix it?
EDIT:
ok im assuming it was a issue with the radio that comes with verizon's 6.5. Now when i went to 6.1 and then back to my custom rom it worked fine just like before. But for some reason i could not find the omnia2 ill have to test that with a different device and see if it works with my earpiece and other phones but so far so good hope that helps if anyone else is having these problems

no 3g with any rom

ok so after 3 days of research and trying about 6 different ROM's i cant get my evo to work on 3g
ive googled my issue and no one seems to have an answer that works for me.
ok so i have loaded
veal pak, evio3, destroyer v.4 (so far my favorite), emerald, liquid rom, ellite series, and a few others.
each and every time the phone is stuck on 1x, never says 3g. and like many others out their with this similar issue the 4g DOES work. ive run speedtest and it seems to hover around 100 kbs. loading any webpage is near impossible and it took 10+ mins to download the speed test app off the market.
now i know its not my coverage because before rooting i got 150kbs + almost every time. and my epic is rooted and at a side by side test it gets anywhere from 115kbs to 800kbs.
ive tried updating prl, profile, adding in different radios, fussing with the settings, nothing seems to work.
can anyone help me out? its so frustrating that if i cant get this to work ima have to unroot and go back to stock and that bloody sense ui
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried downgrading your PRL? Sometimes the older one will work better for some people. There's also a fix for crappy 3G speeds. I believe you'll need your msl and you may need to be on a Sense rom. I'll see if I can find the fix.

Are you using the latest radios and such not the leaked ones. Did you do full wipes be4 flashing .

You can run stock with root, restore your backup and verify speeds, or download the stock rooted, or Sprint lovers. Might be coincidental tower maintenance

i have been using the radios that come with the rom, but i have updated them to the latest and it doesn't help. (the only rom that seems to get 3g is ELITE Series III") but its to much like sense
and when i instal the roms i "wipe date/factory reset" "wipe cach" and wipe delvik cach

no i have not tried downgrading but i should try, any recommendations as to what prl i should use. and one of the only things im looking for in a rom is something that DOESN'T resembles sense ui. i really like adw and aosp (lock screen im using simply aosp rom on my epic and its awesome)
on a side note i cant get EVO-NonSense to work

Cyanogenmod is an awesome asop rom.... Im currently on the nightly. Also the sprint stock rom says that you are on 3g all the time...sales gimick. When you change rom then you actually find out what network you are on

Also try the ##3282# reprovisioning fix.

Not sure that it will fix your exact problem, but it is so potent and easy to do, that it is worth a try. I've used it to fix slow 3G and 4G that wouldn't connect.

Cannot connect to 3g

Hey whats up guys...im really not sure what the problem is but maybe some one has experienced with before..
My droid incredible cannot connect to 3g service...i tried installing all different kinds of roms even the latest gingerbread releases but still nothing.
Some times i allows me to connect to 1x but then you see the "3g" on the top but then it instantly disconnects.
Ive so tried 3 different radio from the NIS business sense release...all failed..
Any ideas?!?!?
Or if i just need the stock radio??

Aloha! I'll see if I can help.
1) Do a nandroid backup in recovery.
2) Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache then flash rmk40's gingersense leak: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087077
3) Reboot and skip set up. Turn on 3G and even test it out for a bit. You should have whatever signal you are used to having return.
4) reboot into recovery and wipe cache, then go into advanced and wipe dalvik cache
5) Restore your latest Nandroid backup
Let me know how this works.

How would this fix any 3g issues by flashing a new rom and then returning to you old Rom with a backup? I seem to have an issue changing from 1X to 3g causing me to restart my phone at times to pick up the 3g signal again.

Primarily, the people who noticed this issue were/are folks who try out the various gingersense roms available. I've been a member of XDA since January and haven't noticed users in large numbers have issues with 3G until these roms came out. Whether it's due to there not being an official base or what, idk but many users have had these issues with 3G since the May unofficial gingersense leaks:
1) 3G being present and fully functional then disappearing from the notification bar altogether even while still being enabled in Settings
2) 3G signal dropping down to 1x and not displaying again until you perform a reboot.
I have experienced this issue and know this resolved it. This rom as well as Incubus26jc or JoelZ's stock OTA gingersense leak, for whatever reason, are a solution to resolve the 3g drop issue not the only solution. Incubus26jc, JoelZ, and Nils each have recommended and note this is a fix. My (non-fact and own) answer to you would be I believe since these three roms are the unaltered and "(un)official gingerbread Sense" files, they recorrect the 3G signal that is going awry.
Try it and let me know how this works. You don't stand to lose anything except a few minutes haha

This solution fixed my problem.

Dang it actually worked. Wish i had done this a while back. Thanks for the simple fix.

Not a problem, I'm just thankful there's a fix.

Accidentally worked for me too
I had the same problem on CM7. Flashing back to my stock 2.2 Android backup fixed the problem. Flashing back to CM7 and OMGB caused the problem to return. I am on the leaked ota now, I have flashed the gingerbread radio, and I am having no 3g issues. I wish that I had found this thread earlier.

Had this exact issue with synergy rls1 and was also told to flash the rom above to fix it. It worked for awile but then 3g issues would return again, even on non sense 3 roms and even on my old virtuous nandroid. If just flashing the above rom works for you and permanetly fixes it thats cool, but if your like me the only fix is to revert back to compleet stock and i mean compleet stock rom radio recovery boot img everything the only thing not stock would be you still want to have s-off as a matter of fact make sure to check you are s-off before going stock. Once stock you need to do a factory reset from the settings menu. What this does is it compleetley wipes your phone back to stock including wiping vzw programing, wich is the key to fixing 3g. Once your phone reboots from the factory reset you will be prompted to dial *228 option 1 to reprogram your phone. Once reprogramed your 3g will be fixed. From there flash clock work or amon ra recovery and then restore your favorite nandroid or install a new rom. I personaly would stay away from sense 3 roms as after fixing mine with the above steps i not thinking installed another sense 3 rom and broke 3g again making me fix it all over again. I have stayed away from sense 3 and havent had any problems since. Note if you have a compleete stock nandroid you can just flash that then flash stock recovery and radio do the factory reset .....

Well this is why Android is all about choice.

Well, I tried to install rmk's rom and that didn't work. I also tried to go back to stock with the RUU and the PB31IMG.zip file to do a factory reset, but that didn't work either. Are there any other suggestions that I can try?

If an ruu and a factory reset with new programing didn't fix your 3g issue its possibly hardware related. Can you still connect at 1x speed?

No, I called Big Red and they're sending out a replacement phone. I'm one of them weird people that don't use their phone as a phone too much, but I realized that I couldn't make or receive phone calls or texts either. We got that issue fixed, but they couldn't get the data working.
I guess the world of root is gone for me since it will probably come with Gingerbread on it already. Oh well, I'm probably going to buy a new phone in December anyway, so I'll have a new Dinc to put away in the drawer.

Looks like they are sending me a Rezound...JK. Actually, it looks like they are sending me an OG Incredible. I'll know more tomorrow and will let you know.
Thanks for the link to the root method. I have been studying it and I have all the files downloaded just waiting.
Edit: I did get an OG Incredible, but it came with Froyo on it. I should be good to go as far as rooting it goes. I think that I have an SLCD model though which sucks.

E:cant store zip image

So its been a while since I have had to do anything to my (wifes now) Evo. She told me calls were dropping, well not connecting. When trying to make a call it drops instantly. I flashed a sense rom and updated PRL/Profile and it keeps doing the same. I then thought I would update the radio/PRI and while trying to flash the combo I am getting this error in title. What the heck is that? E:cant store zip image something tells me there is something wrong here, lol. Any ideas?
i tried to flash radio and PRL separate and got the same error...
edit...now trying a p36img maybe this will rebuild the corrupt partition. at least i think one is corrupt
edit...so the p36img flashed and I am still getting the instant dropped call, wtf!
edit...after flashing the p36img i then flash ra recovery, from there i was able to flash the radio/prl/nv combo. I am still getting the dropped none connecting calls, just not as bad as before. this is not happening with my evo shift or galaxy s 2. any thoughts?
Thanks

Only thing I can think of is the phone may need to be reprovisioned in sprint's system, to accomplish this you will need to flash a fully stock rom and contact sprint, either call them or use the support chat on sprint.com they will have you do some stuff in Epst and then do whatever it is they do on their end, sometimes things get screwed up from changing providers while roaming and the settings endup stuck and require a manual reset which is what the reprovisioning will do

Yeah, I thought of that after going through what I did above. I restored back to CM7 and 3 out of 4 calls go through now. I want to say its sprint, but my other devices are trouble free. The only thing I did that may have a hand in causing this is a couple days ago I flashed one of the AOSP ICS roms, had to take a gander since my Epic 4G Touch has NO ICS roms I must say the ICS looks awesome, the wife didnt care for it so back to CM7 it went. Perhaps some settings got jacked up when I flashed? If it still does it today I will try a re-provisioning, if that fails its off to sprint! I sure hope the latest firmware is rootable/s-off

[Q] Trying to flash back to stock from CM to update PRL for FreedomPop

I'm trying to flash back to stock or some sort of sense rom so that i can update profile/prl I just changed carriers, i use CM 7 on my evo 4g, I've tried DL a few roms from here are other places and none of them will flash back to stock i always get an error saying assert failed. I am afraid to remove the assert from the zip in case im doing something wrong i dont want to brick my phone. Is there anyway anyone here can help me? I am sorry if this is a noob question i will be quick to provide addition information if needed.

got past assert fail error, installed most up to date stock rooted rom, kept getting incessant errors, and force close, phone was unoperable, reverted to cyanogenmod and still unable to activate on new carrier.
also, when i reverted and tried to fix permissions [common fix for FC error] for some reason the rom was so glitchy that it would get frozen while attempting to fix permissions. so i got nowhere, trying a new rom now to see if that helps, ripping my hair out over this all day long driving me crazy, now i remeber why i stopped using a cell phone

pissed
ive spent all day flashing crap roms that don't work, even supposably the best up to date stock rom i can get from this site, and nothing is working, every time it fails or sends me to endles boot loop;.;;about to see if evo will blend if you know what i mean....

Are you using a USB cable or a custom recovery to flash your roms?
Also, what version is your bootloader?
Finally, why the heck are you on CM7 instead of CM11?

i was using clockwork recovery to flash roms, ended up finally getting it to work by using a custom rom called "swagged out stock* it wasn't that great so i just updated prl and profile activated my new carrier and returned to CM7....
the reason im using cm7 instead of 11 is becuase i am using the evo 4g (supersonic) and the highest version available is 7.2 unless im wrong...
everything is working fine now so im happy, but curious as to why i might want cm11 on here or how i can even get it.

Oh sorry... I thought you had the evo 4g lte (jewel). There are some 10.1 and 10.2 unofficial ports for the supersonic, but I'm not sure of their quality...
Glad you found a way to solve your issue though!
