Hey guys,
I know about the 4.0.4 signal issue but mine is a little bit serious i think....
Since updated to 4.0.4 I'm loosing signal about 1 to 2 time per minutes. Even the new update to fix it didn't. I then installed AOKP+Latest baseband+Franco Kernel milestone 2 AND I STILL EXPERIENCE THAT ISSUE. My friend is set up the same way and don't have that problem.
Thing is, one I get the signal, if i place a call I can talk for hours without loosing the signal so if it was hardware related I think it would happen even on the line....(maybe i'm wrong on this one)
I'm on Rogers Wireless in canada.
I've tried also going into the *#*#4636#*#* menu and trying different prl WCDMA, GSM auto PRL, GSM Only, etc... still no difference.....
I'm attaching a screenshot of the nosignal app log....
Anyone have an idea?
Btw i also tried oc to 700mhz+ and issue is still hapening. Next step is a wall and some velocity....

Also, I don't know if it could be related but I'm suscribed to Rogers One Number. (I can use a PC to place calls using my phone number. Network can also transfer call to my pc if phone is off and things like that). It is.similar to google voice i think

What radio?
I had problems with my data not registering/holding a connection so I'd have to recycle the radio by airplane off/on just to initiate it, and when it did, the rates/latency was all over the place, reverted back to a kk6 radio and it resolved the issue.
My radio/baseband is I9250UGLC1 and I use it in Canada with Rogers.
I tried already to remove battery, remove and put back the sim card, clear cache, clear dalvjc, flash rom few times......nothing is working

Give the UGLA4 radio a try, personally I found it to be the best of the bunch. The xx series of radios were awful for me.
Try to revert to a stock rom... I don't mean unroot just flash a stock rom. This made my problem go away
Already revert to canadian stock rom but the problem remain.....
Any rom or radio I flash do the same problem.....also tried the simcard of my friend to see if it was the sim but the bug mas also happening with his sim....

Guys, my wifi is acting really really weird lately.
I flashed aokp m4 with franco r98, and it works perfectly with my home wifi. But at school, it would not connect even though in wifi settings the phone can see the wifi and its full bars. I stood next to a friend with a gnex unrooted and stock Rogers rom, and he has full bars. While on my phone, it just says that the network is saved. I have been able to access the wifi before back when I had stock. So I decided to try my cwm backup of my stock rooted and still no use. wont connect.
Last try i made was to reflash google 4.0.2 stock image and lock bootloader, and try it with the factory rom. NOPE, no help at all..
Right now, Im back home on my wifi, full bars, and no problems watsoever running m2 with r98 again. but still...why???!!!
Is it hardware issue? How can I test and check!!! i really need this solved...as wifi is like a necessity in life these days LOL
Also, I tried foxhound before i went to stock, and still wont connect to school wifi.
One more thing, there is like one spot to two in school that i would get 1 tiny dot of wifi, whereas every other phone around me including the ipods have full bars...SOooo, any fixes?
anyone help ？

Before you flashed your custom rom did it work at school?
If it works at home, then it probably isn't a hardware issue... maybe check your wifi settings and try putting the frequency at 2.5 Ghz instead of auto? Or try to put it at 5.0 Ghz?
Maybe there are some Wi-Fi apps you can try searching for in the market that gives you more information?
You sure you're typing the correct password?

a week before I was on aokp m4 with r98 and things were fine. this week, the problems began. tried changing the accepted frequency, tried srock rom, tried stocj rooted, tried using someone else's sign in info. what wifi app should i get...thanks for the reply
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I'm not exactly sure about the wifi diagnostics app, I just got my phone a couple days ago
I'd say just download some random one's for now. See if the signal that it's reporting is different. Maybe long press the network name and select "forget", then try again?
Are you not getting enough bars? Or can you just can't connect to the AP?
I just got my phone in the mail this afternoon, and i was wondering why it kept bouncing the signal in and out, only to find out that the antenna leaves alot to be desired?
anything i should, or shouldnt do to make the best of the situation or do i have to make the command decision to live with it or give it up?
So your signal is going whack? You can attempt to flash a new radio.
As Media said, I would try to flash another set of radios. You can also try shutting your phone off, removing the SIM card for a couple of minutes and then rebooting which has worked for me a couple of times before.

Flash 4.0.4 radios(to be specific) and try again.
Im going to assume i need to root in order to do this?
I really dont have any issue with rooting, but i was wondering recently about the fact that when ive been loading roms, after i go to the market most of my items dont show up anymore.
Do i need to load a rom in order to flash the radio?
I tried three radios. Same result. :mad

Maybe try returning it for another one?
Or does anyone you know have a GN?
I was checking out some of the themes that i had downloaded to see which one i liked the most and after a few installs i noticed that my phone was no longer getting 3g/hspa+ ? I had done nothing except install and reboot like instructed in the discription. I was installing them via "Themes" settings. Im currently on AOKP build 39 with the latest nightly from Franco (R191), I have never seen this before which is why i thought id post this thread. I have tried the following and got no fix:
tried *#*#4636#*#* and selected radio band/automatic but got nothing.
tried a refresh on the APN and got nothing
tried Mobile networks/Network operators/both "Select Automatically" and choosing T-mobile and no 3g still =(. Im stuck on EDGE:2
The radio that i have been on for a while now is xxkk6 which has worked pretty good for me coming from Phoenix,AZ
Dont know what else to do, someone help please
Why make two threads for the same problem?

Before creating a "theme broke 3g" thread. Did you happen to call your carrier and see if there has been an outage reported in your area? Have you tried to reflash rom, gapps and kernel and does the problem persist?
good day.

It was not done intentionally

I'm having the same problem. Was working fine on HSPA last night and woke up to Edge only all day. It's not a network outage and it's not my account as my SIM works on HSPA on my backup HTC Amaze. I was recently on CM9 Nightly 6/20 but I'll try going back to the stock rom and see what that does.
Edit: Tried reverting to complete stock everything and I'm still stuck on Edge only. I'll try a friend's SIM out and make sure it's not my account/IMEI issue, otherwise something has to be wrong with the phone, but I don't know what

There is no outage in my area because everyone that i know has T-mobile and there phone works fine. Re flash rom, gapps, kernel and problem still remains
Either me bringing it back to stock/oem lock then unlock or my phone fixed itself. At first when i was done bringing it back to stock, it was still saying i was on edge, then after about an hour when i tried to root my phone i noticed that 3g/h back up. I still dont know what exactly the root cause but whatever its fixed
My friend got a Galaxy nexus he brought from amazon and asked me to root, unlock and install jelly bean on it because he cant wait. He is though, just a fan of stock and has no idea of rooting or any development, so i flashed on his phone the ota (bigxie_maguro_JRN84D_v2-signed.zip) then a radio (CWM-RADIO-i9250-JB.zip)... it went okay for a few weeks then he noticed a problem where his signal turned on and off very rapidly... especially in 3g, but when shifted into 2g, his signal seems to be fine.. i asked him what he did but he said he did nothing in particular that could have affected the signal.. he doesnt use his root access though so i believe him. i tried flashing different radio, and it didnt work. so can any of you guys can help us? thanks a bunch
send it back if you can. I'm still trying to get a perfectly working Nexus
When I was having issues with my signal (my RIL and baseband did not match) I found this app mentioned in the modem thread https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sibbor.getril and it seems to have helped resolve the issue for me. Hopefully it'll be of some use for your friend if he is experiencing the same issue.

hey guys im new to the forum.
i have a rooted nexus (maguro) on the Three "3" network in the UK and i was running AOKP for around 8 months with no signal problems at all. I flashed a new rom(jellybean) back in august and now my signal drops around every few mins and then comes back for a few mins and drops again. I have tried restoring to my old AOKP backup and the problem continues. i have flashed other jb roms and tried all different ril's using getril off the market but i just cant seem to stop this problem.
can anyone help? would be very much appreciated, thanks.
Try the app GetRIL and look if you have the right RIL and Baseband. If you don' have the right, you can change it ith the app.

hey, that's what ive been trying but even when i have a matching RIL and Baseband i still get the signal loss. i know it isn't my network as my gf is on the same network and her signal is fine
Try a different radio?

Anyway, the GSM antenna on the Nexus is not the best around, so you may get slightly worse signal compared to other phones.

custom rom zips don't include any radio.
flashing a stock google image using fastboot will flash the radio over.
I have the same problem with you, but i am in Vodafone's network in Greece.
When i flashed the first aokp jb i started having problems with disconnections. The XXLF1 radio was extremely buggy.
Then i tried a ics rom and downgraded my radio to matching xxla2. But the problem remained so i changed back to aokp jb again.
Now i still have a buggy radio (total signal loss, data drops) but not so much as before.
It might be a problem with the frequencies each carrier use. I say that because when i had "2G only" enabled i had no signal but when i turned on 3G i had three bars at the same spot.
Anyway, i hope they release a better radio on the next update.

Refer to the link I included above, try different radios and remember to match the RIL.
Will the next nexus have a longer screen?
