This post is about as helpful as
I have a can of beer, but its empty
Pls describe your issue:
rooted? s-on or off? rom? kernel? is your phone activated?

Dial *228 and select option 1

Yes I am rooted. I'm using cm9. s is on. my kernel is [email protected]#1fri oct 7 10:52:52: cst 2011 ,but yes I am activated I think on my verizon account it says that I have this phone but I don't have any service but I have 3g i dont get it...

I'm having the same problem with my htc incredible. I have 3G but can't make calls or send texts (can't receive calls or texts either). My phone is rooted and i had the evervolv rom installed on it for about 2 months now. I tried flashing another rom but I have the same problem (tried salvage-mod). I'm wondering if this had anything to do with some apps i removed (I used titanium backup to remove evervolvs email app, the evervolv browswer and evernolv news/weather). The phone worked fine for 3 or 4 days after i removed these apps and then this happened. But I don't think this is related but just thought i would mention it.

I hate to be redundant but have you tried calling *228 and reprogramming the phone? If so and it didn't help anything, could you post a little bit of information about your phone? We know you are on evervolv and rooted and I'm guessing you're using clockworkmod recovery but what is your baseband/radio? Any other relevant information you can think of would also be helpful so someone can help you

Yeah I am running CWR.
Baseband: 2.15.00.07.28
Kernel version: 2.6.37.4-cyanogenmod+ [email protected] #27
Build number: GRJ22
I tried called *228 and reprogramming but it hasn't helped. I was thinking about going back to a stock rom and calling verizon.
When I try making a call, the green bars become grayed out. I will hear about 3 or 4 rings before I get a message from Verizon saying my call cannot be processed and they give me the following code: 11 switch? 179-3

You need to call verizion and have them reprovision your phone. I'm 90% positive its a problem on there end. I would go back to a stock rom first (RUU), but keep s-off or you will be in for a lot of work rerooting.

well, I don't think that this is necessarily the problem but you might want to consider upgrading your radio. It is easily flashable through hboot and can considerably improve your call quality. The one you're using now was designed for and released with froyo and when you downgraded to root you also downgraded the radio so perhaps that is a problem?
You can get the radios from this address:
http://dinc.does-it.net/Radios/
You probably want 2.15.10.07.07 as it is the newest radio that was designed for the dinc. (released with gingerbread 2.3.4)
Just make sure you check the MD5 before flashing because a bad radio file could brick your device.
EDIT: cmlusco is right, that is what you really need to do. I always avoid going to verizon myself because I have no interest in them trying to tell me how i somehow did something wrong by rooting it.

What do you mean by check the MD5?

I still maintain that like cmlusco said you should go ahead and RUU back to stock and talk to verizon about it but it is still good to know what an MD5 sum is.
An MD5 Sum is a string of numbers that is unique to every file. You check the MD5 sum to make sure it matches the original MD5 Sum which is usually provided by the developer or host of the file. For example, in the case of the radio:
if you go to this page you will see two files: http://dinc.does-it.net/Radios/2.15.10.07.07/
One is called PB31IMG.zip and the other is called PB31IMG.zip.md5
If you click on PB31IMG.zip it will download the file to your computer and you can then transfer that file to the root of your SD card to be flashed.
If you click on PB31IMG.zip.md5 you will see a string of numbers/letters which make up the MD5 sum for the PB31IMG.zip file. For this file it is:
617E6969061DCBC3CA613FA6D02565F0
You then want to make sure that after you download the file or even better when it has been placed on your phone that the file has not been corrupted during downloading or during transfer to your phone. This can be done by using an MD5 checker which can be downloaded from many places online for your pc and there are several MD5 checkers available in the market. You basically just want to make sure the string of numbers found online on the dev site or the host site is the same as the one generated by the checker

So i tried the radio and it didnt help. I'm going to do the RUU now. Is this the link for that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1227279

Here is a link for the ruu http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.06.605.3/PB31IMG.zip
Also just fyi, a new radio was just released 2.15.10.12.20 you can get it here http://dinc.does-it.net/Radios/2.15.10.12.20/PB31IMG.zip

can i use any of those stock images or should i use 4.06.605.3?

losthorizon777 said:

Should be able to use any of them. However they will prompt you with ota updates after you boot to get to either 4.08.605.2 or 4.08.605.15 if its been pushed to you yet, or mabey both.

So i flashed the RUU and called verzion. they refreshed something on their end and now i can make calls and send texts. thanks for all your help

The unrevoked3 recovery flash tool wont root my phone. Would going back to an older RUU like 3.26.605.1 help?
I made sure security was off (S-OFF) when i did the flash with the first RUU. Also hboot still says S-OFF so i dont think this is the problem.

If your s-off all you have to do to root is flash cwm recovery thru hboot http://dinc.does-it.net/Recoveries/CWM_5.0.2.0/PB31IMG.zip and then flash superuser through recovery http://dinc.does-it.net/SuperUser/SuperUser_3.0.7.zip .

If the phone do automatically download by 3g , obviously is unrooted.

this has been covered numerous times. It appears that if you have rooted in the past, you can not ever get pri 1.40 even if you go back to unrooted shipped rom which you did. I would be curious to know if anyone has started with the first shipped rom (RUU_Supersonic_1.32.651.1_Radio_1.39.00.04.26_rele ase_171253.exe), unrooting their device, then instead of accepting the ota, flashed the second shipped rom (RUU_Supersonic_1.32.651.6_Radio_1.39.00.05.31_rele ase_171253_signed.exe) to see if anything would change, then flashed the 3rd and most up to date shipped (RUU_Supersonic_1.47.651.1_Radio_2.05.00.06.10_rele ase_CL195459.exe). I bet its been done already but figured I would ask.

Why not just flash 1.77 zip? It is located on the development forums.
My EVO checksum is 00000000 and it's now updated to V1.90_03.
Is this okay?

Baseband ver: 2.15.00.05.02
Build number: 4.24.651 L61076 release keys
Software number : 4.4.651.1

On that guide i think it say it only work for Software versions 1.32, 1.36, 3.29, 3.30 & 3.70 and hBoot Version .76, .93, .97, 2.02 & 2.10 and how do i even find out my hoot version?
I just tried the autoroot quick method and it said unknown bootloader version. Bootloader is the wrong version. Is there anyway i can change my bootloader version?

Thanks alot i got pass that step now lol im stuck one more time. Ok I found 9 msid's and zerod them and i found 11 esn's before i got done checking all the esn locations i had about 5 or 6 locations left to check but i didnt becouse it say theres only 9 meids and 11 esns, and now after i zero them all out and reboot my phone and press ##786# the msid and esn is not all zeros like it should say. What do i do now?
Hey louforgiveno do you have a messenger aol msn yahoo or anything if so leave your screen name and log on i be on asap thanks
I just downgraded to 2.05.00.06.10 and used the revskills to try and zero meid/esn i ended up with a log file how do i write this to QXDM now?
i must be missing something cause everywhere i see it no one replies to this question or there is no answer...
after removing 0 and 1943, i can't ever commit the **** to the DIAG TX item... the DIAG RX item takes it just fine. I have been trying and re-trying for hours... thanks
You need the version of qpst listed In the guide....double check your version
I used the EFS Explorer to add and extract the files. Edit of course with Winhex. I bet the file is not saved properly if you've done this already.

Makes sense. when you drag files back do they have the same look as the ones already in there? What i do notice is that all the other files have a consistent modified date, and there is also a batch of files that show mod dates that are more recent and don't have the red line through them (they look like txt file images on a windows pc). are these temp files that are perhaps messing with writing the ****?

It's normal that they look different, don't know if you tried it yet, but you need to delete the 0&1943 from the phone before copying them back from pc.

i do delete them. but i also see a host of other files that are written on boot(or reboot), those are the ones i'm curious about. i also will downgrade qpst to 2.7.555 to see if that matters.
EDIT: Tried it to no avail. so infuriating... so close but so far...
EDIT: thanks to Klown80 - simple answer is it doesn't matter! there is a guide floating around that says it does, i just happened to end up with it. thinking that it was logical i wasn't going to deviate until i got it right... so unnecessary. so there it is, for those of you who are stumped by this issue...

[Q] Baseband Unknown, Signal Drops

Hi, i'm from Brazil and i have a Gnex from UK, and it's unlocked.
When i was at 4.0.2, everythings ok, but after the OTA update to 4.0.4, i'm having some problems if the data is turned on, and the option 'only 2g' is checked the signal is good, but if the data is turned on and i have 3G connection the phone lose signal, and baseband shows Unknown.
My Gnex is Yakju, and i have flashed the 4.1 (JRN84D) from here with baseband I9250XXLF1 and 3.0.31-ge8de0e2 kernel ( on the post shows that's a stock kernel ). And the problems still here.
More info about my Gnex on fastboot mode:
Product Name: Tuna
Variant: Maguro
HW Version: 9
BootLoader: PRIMEKK15
Baseband: I9250XXLF1
Sorry for my bad english, but i can't use 3G connection and i need to recive emails, etc
If anyone can help me, thanks! :laugh:

I'm not 100% sure but I think your kernel maybe be the Developer preview kernel, the official is 3.0.31-g6fb96c9, you could try flashing that? It's what I'm running with 4.1.1 and it works fine.

The 4.1.1 is available from OTA, but when i press to install the phone reboot then enter in CWM and shows a message that de update was found, try install but give me a erro message that failed, i'm a new user on android, my phone was an iPhone.

No, when de signal is dropped i had to take battery out from phone, wait 5 or more minutes than put it back! If i put it back before i have the baseband unknown message on Config > About Phone. And this happens only if i have 3G signal, i see many people saying about signal issues after OTA to 4.0.4 and if i still with "only 2g" selected i don't have signal drop or disable the data, then i don't have any problem

If it's the status 7 error it's because OTA's require stock everything I think, including recovery.

Not sure if it will fix the problem, I think it's in the kernel you have as that's where WIFI is managed, however you could try and if that doesn't work change the kernel.
Instructions on how to update to official 4.1 are here however if you want to then accept the OTA afterwards when following Method 1 do not delete/rename /system/etc/install-recovery.sh and CWM will be overwritten by stock and you should be able to accept OTA's.
Note: If you don't want to lose your data then you could try skipping the "Wipe data/factory reset" step but do that at your own risk, I skipped it and it works fine though.

a "different" kinda phone problem(?)
I looked through most all of these forums and couldnt find anyone with the problem im having. Not sure if it's me or what...
My problem is that when I flash some roms, my phone doesnt work. (yes im on sprint and only using toroplus). Well, yesterday, for most of the day, everything on my phone worked. When I got up this morning, It hadnt charged, and I lost my dialing again. Some ROMs I flash start off. When I go to settings> about phone> status under "Network" it says "unknown" and under "service state" It will say "no service" then checking on "Moblle Network State" It'll say "unknown"", sometimes my phone number shows up, sometimes it doesnt, Most times I cant make outgoing calls and when anyone calls me, it does a half ring and directs my callers straight to my voice mail. Is anyone having this problem too? And if so, how did you fix it? It frustrates the hell outta me and I think I should just go back to ICS although I dont want to. HELLP!!! :-/
Thanks,
Ridge
P.S. I forgot to mention that Im on a Sprint phone and that Im running Houng81's AOKP Aug1 version Baseband: fg01, the kernel that came with the ROM, Ive even replaced them a few times and nothing does any better. Forgot to add this to my prior text LOL sorry, that just gave me away as a n00b huh? HEHE

Doing the OTA might solve it since it will update (i think) your bootloader to lc03, you still on kk15. If it doesnt, use fastboot and update manually. To run an OTA with cwm installed, you need to download the update.zip from dev section for the OTA you want to run, but do it through cwm (like flashing a custom rom).

I read in another forum that the "factory" folder is the efs on the Gnex, and maybe my phone was with this folder corrupt, if i get a backup of another Gnex thats everything is working and restore to my Gnex will be resolve the problem?

I looked through most all of these forums and couldnt find anyone with the problem im having. Not sure if it's me or what...
My problem is that when I flash some roms, my phone doesnt work. (yes im on sprint and only using toroplus). Well, yesterday, for most of the day, everything on my phone worked. When I got up this morning, It hadnt charged, and I lost my dialing again. Some ROMs I flash start off. When I go to settings> about phone> status under "Network" it says "unknown" and under "service state" It will say "no service" then checking on "Moblle Network State" It'll say "unknown"", sometimes my phone number shows up, sometimes it doesnt, Most times I cant make outgoing calls and when anyone calls me, it does a half ring and directs my callers straight to my voice mail. Is anyone having this problem too? And if so, how did you fix it? It frustrates the hell outta me and I think I should just go back to ICS although I dont want to. HELLP!!! :-/

Well i'm from brazil, and i have a question, sprint is CDMA? If the answer it's YES, do you flash a CDMA rom? if you flash a GSM rom it doesn't work

Thanks for this post. I bought my mom a sprint gnex for mothers day, and sprint is pushing a 26mb ota. I put TWRP on her phone and rooted. Do I need the stock recovery to do the update, does the update break root?
Sorry, not familiar with Sammy or nexus devices, I've always used HTC. And the nexus forums are kinda hard to navigate because of the way it's split up.
Much thanks to anyone.

Do not flash a GSM ROM on a CDMA device/radio.

I had update manually to 4.1.1 factory image, the bootloader has been updated, and the problem still here, maybe this is an efs folder corrupted?
If i get a backup from a gnex that all is working and restore will be fix ?

[Q] Unlocked Sprint update

Hello everyone!
I would greatly appreciate if someone could show the right way to get my phone fully functional;
SPRINT HTC ONE M8
GSM SIM UNLOCKED for use on GSM networks
S-OFF
Rooted
TWRP
HBOOT 3.18.0.0000
RADIO 1.08.20.0612_4
CID-11111111
software version: 2.16.654.4
android: 4.4.3.
Issue:
1. I can not install any OTA updates, and the notification keeps popping out.
2. Mobile data is just not working properly even though I did everything as said here;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-htc-one-m8/general/enabling-3g-umts-countries-t2847461
As I did my research, it was some kind of a major bug on this series of Sprint M8 phones with breakdowns in mobile data. However, since I can not get any updates, the problem perists.
I tried installing custom ROM's, but so far ARHD 22 didn't even boot and LiquidSmooth couldn't detect the SIM card at all.
I know there are quite a few tutorials and "how-to" threads explaining all you need to know about RUU, cusotm ROM's, etc. However if someone could tell me what exactly to do and in which order (return to stock, then update?) I would greatly appreciate it.
Many many thanks!

Easiest way to get it back to stock is just flash the Sprint H/K RUU. You can download it from HERE. Just run it and connect your phone when prompted and follow the instructions (I'd probably change your CID back to the Sprint one first to be on the safe side but as you're S-OFF it shouldn't be needed). You might also need HTC Sync Manager installed. If so, you can get it HERE
This process will wipe the phone completely so back up any data first but other than that you'll at least be back to stock and then troubleshoot any issues from there
Thanks
Many thanks to everyone.
Any chances of loosing the SIM UNLOCK when going back to stock completely?
Nope, that shouldn't be touched but as I've not had a SIM-locked device in years I can't say for certain

Why not 34? Lol Sprint is up to date on its software you could just update to the lollipop firmware, and I could pull some of the files I've got to see if I can help you get it running, I'm on Leedroid right now so the process should be the same for ARHD.

Sorry if some of my questions are a bit dum, I just got from a long trip and have been out of this all rooting busines for a while...
Do i need to install a new stock firmware from Sprint with Lolipop to get the 34 runing?
I have been told v34 won't be working with this software I have right now on the phone.

You can or you can go to the Sprint android development and flash the updated recovery since you are s-off and it'll permit you to flash lollipop roms without many issues but there is still the files that need to be modified for ARHD to work correctly like the boot.img and a few others.

Power+vol up for about 15 seconds then power+vol down to get into recovery. You cant flash it unless you swap out Sprint specific files otherwise you'll get what just happened or boot directly into boot loader.
Like I mentioned I can pull the files together and see if I can get it working for Sprint tonight when I get home but until then flash either fluent Rom or stock if you want lollipop or just flash bad boyz if you don't mind kitkat

For me, the biggest issue is the mobile data breakdowns... I know I read somewhere a while ago it was an issue with some Sprint M8 models. I would like to get everything working w/o problems since it is GSM unlocked, and via QPST I unlocked all the bands.

Also, I just found some official EU RUU's with different radio's as far as I can tell from the filename.
Maybe that could be the final solution to all the problems?

help with "imei, baseband, ect 'unknown'"

old m9 ended up kicking the bucket sorta (usb died, so no way to charge the phone) so i bought a used one from swappa. it came with the latest ruu flashed, but i decided to reflash again to make sure it was totally clean (RUU_HIMA_UL_M60_SENSE70_ATT_MR_Cingular_US_3.38.502.12.exe). it went fine and so i began the process of unlocking it and flashing recovery (twrp 3.0.2.0) and flashing a rom (arhd 20 which is marshmallow) and titanium backuping back into shape. it unlocked and flashed recovery fine, however when i flashed the rom and did the first boot, i noticed i had no signal even though the stock rom had 4 bars of lte. it was also very laggy and had issues with crashing apps and for some reason still had at&t bloatware even though i did a dalvik/cache/system/data wipe beforehand and then a data wipe during the install and was missing inbuilt htc apps like internet. in the settings it shows that the imei, baseband, and other things related are all "unknown". i researched and came across a fix where you flash back your stock boot image, and it worked, except it would fail to boot after the first reboot. so that was useless.
i decided to try flashing arhd 14 (lollipop) because its what my old m9 had since forever and never gave me an issue. surprisingly, it actually installed and ran just fine even though the phone is on marshmallow firmware, as well as much quicker and smoother than arhd 20. however, i have the same issue. no signal, and imei and stuff "unknown". it does show my imei in download mode so i know the phone itself didnt forget it somehow. i have no idea what is going on here because ive literally never had this problem with any phone, even with my old m9 and i absolutely refuse to use a stock rom and have to manually deal with all of the bloatware especially with selinux making anything remotely "dangerous" an excessive hassle. can someone help me figure out this unnecessary pita?
this is what is shown in the download mode screen:
*** UNLOCKED ***
HTC_HIMAULATT PVT S-ON
LK-1.0.0.0000
RADIO-01.01_U11440801_96.01.51207A_F

Are you S-OFF? if so, are you sure that you used the correct firmware. Never had this issue myself, but am remembering from the days on the M9 that such an issue could occur if a wrong firmware is flashed.
Another chance could be the following one: if your RUU didn't download correctly it might be damaged and thus have caused the problem. This may be the case as you're missing stock Apps after flash. Have you checked if the md5 of the downloaded file is correct.
Edit: report back if it helped.

Yeah turns out the latest arhd is made for 3.35 and I'm on 3.38, so that's why it's all jacked up. And of course there is no way to "downgrade" (see: upgrade) to a lower firmware without $25 s off. Pretty ridiculous I have to pay just to s off so I can put my phone on an older software that works better because of "security" (see: money).

I still think something went wrong when flashing RUU. A 3.35 based ROM shouldn't jack up anything, as long as your firmware is even a later one than the ROM base. Btw 25 bucks are well invested regarding all the work they do, but it's the wrong place to discuss. Did you check if the RUU downloaded correctly and the md5 after download still is the same as given in the dl link. Missing stock Apps after flashing an RUU are a major indicator for a bad download, and if firmware parts where missing in this download as well, you'll end up just as you'd described in your opening post.
Sent from my htc_pmeuhl using XDA Labs
I used the ruu 2 or 3 times and it worked fine every time and the stock rom runs just fine. It's when trying to flash the rom it doesn't work, and I used one I downloaded from my computer, from my phone, and one I already had on my SD and they all ended up with the same result.

It actually does. That's why thicklizard made his custom kernel. The 3.3x firmware versions for SKUs which skipped the 3.35 version are not compatible with 3.35 roms unless that kernel gets flashed.
Edit: I just read that the mono-revisited kernel is only for AOSP roms. I'm sorry but it seems like I don't have a solution for sense roms.

Doesn't daktah say in the OP that he was missing those apps after flashing ARHD20? I never used that rom but it sounds like they got uninstalled during the installation. Does ARHD have an aroma installer like the Viper rom does where you can select which apps to install or not to install?

Thanks for the clarification mate.
Didn't remember this one.. guess it's already to long since I used my M9. I'm not sure if he tried to state exactly what I quoted from your post, cause he jumps from RUUing right to the flash of ARHD. never used it myself, this I don't know if it comes with an Aroma Installer at all. Either way it would be interesting to know what happens if he just boots into his stock ROM, to make sure the cause isn't a bad download of the RUU. Feel free to correct me if I'm mistaken

So I managed to fix it... By replacing the USB/aux board in my phone. Only cost 10 bucks for a new one . However now i have a problem where my phone will not charge at full speed and will actually give me the "using too much power to charge" message when doing a titanium backup even on the stock charger. The battery was at dead flat 0 for like 5 days before I fixed it, so do I need to replace it or is there something else I can do to fix it? When it's full it holds a charge for as long as it did before, just charging is not working correctly it seems.
i have nandroid backup of 3.38.841.6 let me know if i can be any help, i"ll upload it on mediafire and give you link,
