Hey all, new to all this and been searching for my issue and haven't seen it anywhere. Allmost all my calls everyone says your breaking up, using handset, headset and bluetooth it does not matter. Just got done rooting and was looking at roms. just wondering if anyone has had this issue and what rom and or kernal might help.

Hmmmmm. I think the first thing I would try would be to do *228 Option 1 to make sure your phone is programmed correctly. This will also update roaming towers.
Good luck!
thanks, did that and issue is still there. It seems as if its working in like one way mode. Was just talking to my friend and if he is talking I either break up or he doesn't hear me at all. The wind was hitting his mic and he thought I had dropped. It's making me and everyone crazy. LOL

I don't know that ROMs or kernels will help. Upgrading your radio, however, might. It's one of the more likely-to-brick-your-phone parts of modding, but it's also very straightforward. If you do go ahead and flash a new radio (I've flashed several, and had the best experience with the leaked 2.15.10.05.06 radio, but your mileage may vary), remember to always check the MD5s and have sufficient battery.
Your problem, however, may be a hardware problem, if your signal is good and you're still having problems.
One thing you might try if you're still using a Sense ROM: Enable EVRC-B
A word of caution: if you set EVRC-B and you are in or venture into an area where B isn't yet supported, you won't be able to place a call. You can switch it back if you're using a Sense ROM, but won't have the option if you're using a vanilla ROM.
Flashing a Radio
There are links to download various radios from the CM7 wiki.
2.15.10.05.06 Radio
For the record, you can just copy the PB31IMG.zip file to the root of your microsd via a card reader or mounting your card over USB in the phone, but ensure you check the MD5 after it's copied over before flashing. Good luck and be careful.
Thanks, will read some more and see about doing radio. Kinda nervous about that one seeing how everyone seems to be very cautious about it.

As long as you check your md5 sum and have a good charge there's really nothing to worry about.

I concur... flash that *****.

hey all, been a bit loaded rom. skyraider 4.1 and tried the radio but bootloader won't recognize pb zip. Any ideas?
Make sure its named exactly PB31IMG.zip and that your SD card is fat32. Also ensure its on the root of your SD card.
I recently rooted my incredible 2 successfully and got CM7 on with no problem. I was trying to install a new splash screen, but accidentally installed my existing radio (1.09.01.0722) instead. Now I can't get any wireless signal or dial *228. I've tried different radios, but none of them work now. Any ideas?
thanks
You're able to still use the phone, but you don't get any data or anything?

It's not bricked if you can turn in on.....
Did you remove the radio file after you flashed?
Had same issue on build 109 I placed a call and it fixed it. Yes placed a call with no 3g or 1x and no baseband showing in software. 3g then showed up and baseband updated.

Ya that's what I was thinking too. Didn't make sense to me about what he was saying.

Try reflashing your original stock ROM and everything... Do the Ruu if nothing else works.. you'll lose root, but your phone will most likely work again... Then if you really want to, reroot.

This is what I was about to say. seems like your only option and hope it fixes it.
I always thought that the flashing your Radio twice thing was just a rumor cause I can never find any answer as to why this would brick your device.
guess it doesn't care it just does!
Hope you can get an insurance replacement being rooted. Verizon wouldn't even cover my week old battery that was bad from the factory and wouldnt take a complete charge because the VZW dip behind the counter noticed the custom boot screen and started asking questions. guess I should have hidden my mods!
I really wish you guys would look up the definition of "brick" if you don't understand what a BRICK is. please refer:
Bricked
Bricked refers to ANY hardware that is unable to start up due to bad software; Usually because of a bad software flash, a modification done improperly, loss of necessary files, being overheated from overclocking or overuse if the item is a lemon, a short-circuiting, or a Trojan that deletes necessary files for a few examples.
The noob bricked his PSP because he took out the battery while running a firmware update.

Thanks for all the help. I tried switching to a different rom and that worked. I'm afraid to go back to CM7, but MIUI works just fine, so I'm sticking with it.

Hello,
I just updated my phone to the last MIUI version (3.5.24) and have an issue: after typing my sim card pin code the phone softreboots, and there's no way of passing through there with the sim card. Can use the phone without it. That happened to me too on the previous release, but not on 3.5.10, which I can still use.
Did a full wipe and the problem with this version persist. I heard some people having the same issue, so I guess it is a rom bug?
If anyone has any idea, please share!

Have you tried wiping dalvik+cache in recovery?
Yes, I did, and the problem still there. I tried using my card in another device and it works, and with previous releases, and with different roms and it also works. The problem only exists in the last two miui releases, but not everyone is having the problem... Is quite strange, don't you think?

Contrary to what I used to believe, the hardware axross the dhds and inspire differs ever so slightly depending on when it was produced. Its only very small differences which is why we have these little anomlies in some roms/kernals working for most but refuse to work for a handfull of users. You might want to find a different rom. Changing the kernal may help??

I thought about it, but I sincerely don't know which kernel I can use, I'm pretty noob. Phone info says I'm using kangbang kernel, which other can I use?

Search the roms thread for the best answer to that
I have 2 Wind Mobile GS3's and when I put any custom rom on my fiancees S3 when I am on the phone with her in between the conversation all of a sudden I will hear a loud noise that I can only describe as a transformer transforming in the speaker..It seems to be fine when it is running the stock Touchwiz with Root injected into it but as soon as I rom it the sound comes back. I was just wondering if anyone else has had this issue and was able to find a fix for it. Thanks for the help
What rom, kernel, and mods do you have on it?

Stockorama V2 with T-Mobile (Canada): Stock Kernel and no mods. I was using this as well and I never get the issues that my girlfriend is having. I am currently running Hyperdrive RLS14 with its stock T-Mobile Kernal and no mods and have no issues what so ever.
That's strange. Have you searched the rom thread to see if anyone else reported the same thing?
If they haven't, and you want to still use it, I'd backup and then wipe all data, including internal sd. Then flash the rom from a new download. Then test before adding anything back on.

I looked for anyone reporting issues like mine and I didnt find any. I wiped the phone entirely and was unable to get it to work without the voice being all messed up. I think I may have to just keep regular Stock Root on the device for now but the thing that confuses me is the fact that my device is fine and hers isnt..
It could be a minor defect in a certain part, or just due to "no two chips are truely equal".
It is quite odf. Hopefully someone else may have an idea, but you may want to look into warranty options.
Actually, you could try flashing a custom kernel such as ktoonsez. See if that helps.

I tried the ktoonsez kernal and it still did it..I also put it to just pure touchwiz with root and it was worse then before..I am looking into warrenty options now because this is beyond weird now. Thank you for all the help with this!!
That may be your best option, especially if its doing it all stock now too.
If you wanted to try one more thing, you could see if flashing an audio mod would help. (beats ir something like that)
Can't remember what's available for our phone, but check the sticky in Themes and Apps section and you should find a link in there.

Hello, I have a US Cellular CMDA desire so I am hoping some of you guys could please suggest some good Roms for it, I have had CM7 on it for about a year now which is fine, however recently for whatever reason a lot of my apps crash constantly thus I need to perform a clean install, so since I must go through the trouble of installing a rom again anyway, I would really like to put at least ICS onto it and preferably JB but almost all roms are made for the GSM desire which is not only quite annoying but also saddens me as I cannot load a lot of the cool roms out there onto it, thus any suggestions are very much appreciated.
Although if someone could also explain the shortage of them that would be nice.. because there are a fair number of these phones..
Oh and one last thing, can you possibly make any rom into a CMDA rom? using a script or something?
sorry for the paragraph and Thanks in advance for the help.

Cool, I'll try and play with this sometime tomorrow. (edit: or later today I should say..) Thanks
well I dunno... so far I've tried 3 or 4 JB roms and the most I got out of it was a boot animation and yes I waited long enough to see if it would boot I let it sit for 30 minutes and nothing happened, I suppose I'll try some ICS roms before I give up though.

Ha, thats funny, because about a year ago when I was looking for roms to put on this phone that was one of the first ICS roms I remember seeing and I actually got it to run and everything, I loved it too, although for some reason I didn't keep it I'm guessing because I had even less space than with stock or it could've just broke, I would say the first one though, (Edit: actually I think it was because something like the camera didn't work but whatever) but alrighty I'll give it another go and see about installing an apps2sd+ or int2sd script.

Yea it was one of the first ROMs I used back when I was a complete noob. I remember it was pretty stable and I stayed with it for a long time, but that might've just been cause I was too scared to switch ROMs

OH YES this plus that fix you posted totally worked, really fast too it only took about 1 - 2 minutes when I started it up to boot, well this is gonna be fun!
I got a tip on that fix thread about it working with 4.2.2 and looked at what rom he had and sure enough it worked. (although before I didn't do a full wipe as I did with this as well but hey it works)

well one more thing, I'm having this weird sd card issue where it isn't mounted on my phone, but heres the weird thing, I can use in my computer fine and I was even able to use it to install the rom but booted up I can't use it (note: this also was happening before I did anything and was running the stock rom) any ideas? I have already tried reformatting it again in windows as well, its not a big deal for me as I have a couple more cards, but I prefer to not use em if I don't have to, although seems like I will.

well I tried your rom and it sorta works.... it seemed to boot but.. the screen is black so I can't use it, although I guess something is wrong with my phone anyway, as some people have used that cmda fix and had success with multiple roms yet I can only get that one to work on it so I dunno whats going on with that... oh well one is better than none I suppose. (and I'm guessing asking for bulit in cmda support would be out of the question )
This wouldn't be because of the Hboot would it? the revolutionary hboot for cmda phones, I wouldn't think so since other users have it.
