[Q] signal issue

Hi
I'm using the latest kernel .32
Barebones RLS 4_5 Odex build
1.70.18.02 Radio
the thing that I don't have any signal in my kaiser. it simply shows the name of the network provider but with no service at all. I have tried several builds and it's the same thing "no service". If I try to search for the network manually it says "error while searching for the network". I can import contacts from the sim and the radio that I'm using currently used to work well with WinMo.
anyone has an idea how to solve this???
P.S: I have searched for the issue and I didn't fined answers

Try a different radio rom, preferrably 1.65 . Also if your using an old build with the new kernal or vice versa that can affect your wifi.

Going in and out of Airplane mode didn't help right ?

I have taken your advice and tried several radios:
1.65.21.18
1.71.09.01
1.70.18.02
1.70.19.09
nothing have changed
the problem still persists I have no signal nor service
WiFi, Bluetooth, Camera and sounds work fine
is it possible to be a hardware problem?
the build I'm using is relatively new; in fact it's your Barebones CM6.1 froyo release.
I have tried newer build and nothing have changed
"No signal" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

no certainly it didn't help
it's a nightmare
a phone without signal
I remember with my early days with android, I used to have good signal
but as I started using different builds and updating the kernel seeking for better stability and better battery life. the signal was lost at some point which I don't recognize.
is it a kernel problem?
or hardware?

How about flashing back to stock WM ROM?
if the problem still occurred maybe it is a hardware issue

actually this is a good idea
I should try it and report back
even though I would hate the look of WinMO in my Kaiser after seeing it with Andriod

You tried almost exclusively 1.7x radios. Try more 1.65 radios. As hard as it is to believe for most people its just 1 radio that works for them. I had to try 11 different ones on my kaiser before I found one that worked proper.

OK I'll follow your advice
I would report back later
it's weird because 1.7x radios used to work fine
but not now

If WM didn't sove the signal issue it sounds like your phone may have an internal problem with the radio unrelated to android.

are you saying it's hardware problem?
what part do you suspect?

Well its either the chip itself or you have a bad antenna. Could try an external antenna.

I guess that would cost a fortune to fix (especially in my country) if I could find someone to fix it in the first place
but to make sure I'll try to flash all Radio ROMS again and check any of it would work.
thanks for your hints and tips
my kaiser is dying

[Q] poor gps signal on leeDroid

Hi guys
After flashing my phone with leeDroid 2.2.0 I've noticed that my gps signal is very poor , to the point it has not connected yet. I upgraded my radio after flashing and its been poor since then. I've tried with Google maps and navigation and neither bondat. The used the agps function but that's all that works. Gps status from the market states 4 sats in about 20 seconds though.
Anyone got any tips or should I roll back the radio ?
Thanks guys

Im on 2.2.2 with latest radio and all good
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

Could it be that it was the first time you "activate" your GPS? First time will take longer than usual. After the first time, probably it may take 5 minutes or more, you will get a faster fix. Did you change your NTP server to your nearest one?
I am running 2.2.2 now and I get a lock within 5-15 seconds. in both situation moving(on the road) and not moving(static). at most it will take is 30 seconds but its rarely now.

Maybe you should try Faster fix and then tell us if you still got problems.
Faster Fix
Anyway, you should better update to Leedroids 2.2.2 and his new Kernel and maybe the advised radio 12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2 they work pretty fine.

having same problem...
using radio 12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2, from leedroid page...flashed it twice.
I get no GPS signal...tried faster fix and set to north america as well. Any next steps?

Try a different radio.

Grab from RIL thread. Rils are flashed in recovery (unlike Radio).

OK, flashed correct .ril, after reflashing the radio. Ran Faster Fix
Let GPS sit for a while. had 12 sats used in fix, but no fix ever came through.
Any info on this?

ok, reverted to the radion .06.06 something or other and it works great. Thanks again for advice Mr_JMM

Device Reboot when using WiFi or Mobile Interent

Please help. I just got used HTC Incredible.
It is S-OFF, Hboot-0.92, Radion 2.15.00.07.28 and Android 2.2
It is only work when no WiFI and not Mobile Internet.
If I turn on Mobile Interent I have up to minutes to use Interent and then device going in rebootin and white screen. Removing battery sometimes help and device starts loading but then will rebooting again.
Will changing ROM helps?
As I saw a lot of people has similar problems in USA.... may be I got bad device(

You received your DInc with S-OFF? Sounds like someone sent it in and the refurb department didn't do its job in checking the phone and reloading it... then sent it to you.
You could always flash the stock ROM back onto and see what it does.
http :// dougpiston . com/?page_id=108
is where you can get the Stock ROM from. You will need to place it on you SD card and name it PB31IMG.zip
Boot up into your HBOOT and proceed with the update

Thanks! It was on original Rom when I got it but with S-OFF! and was rebooting when try to use WiFi or Mob. Internet.
Now I'm on cyanogenmod 7 and then same problem.
Do I need play with radio version? Will it may help?

If you go back stock it will unroot you..... if you give me some more info I might be able to help..... like when you flashed cm7 did you do a full wipe and what recovery do you have
Plus did you get it from Verizon or Craigslist or something
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App

Yes, I did full wipe.
Now I'm under CM7 and seems it working now more stable. So I can use interent via WiFI near 10-15 minutes. Under Mobile connection near 5-10minutes. If I do just quick connection on 30-60 second it not rebooting at all.
I got the phone from a person who, I think, take it from ebay. It has verizon sign on it.
When I got it was with original lates ROM.
I'm starting think that it is overheating. May be I can low processor speed?
Updated. Also I've installed prog called 'neocore' which does 3d benchmark testing. I need to run just 2-3 times this test and my device starts rebooting.

I had a similar problem when using custom kernels with HAVS or smartass governors on them. Do you have Set CPU or any other program that controls your processing speed/voltage? If so, try disabling them and see if you still have the problem. Some phones do not react well to under/overclocking.

im not sure what kernel comes with cm7 but some dincs dont like multitouch kernels.... and they will kick you off apps and sometimes reboot so i would try switching kernels first.. try one that is close to stock

Just back to stock ROM. And what I see, that if I disable Mobile Internet it works stable. Just turn on Mobile Internet and it starts rebooting. Stock rom has a lot of apps which connect to the internet. Even with disabled auto-update I still see how on booting 3g icons areas and arrows up-down are blinking.
As I see after connection to the mobile internet my device starts rebooting. And only one think helps - remove battery and wait several minutes, which allows boot in successfully. And then if turn off mobile access it will work well (((

Thats odd that ur phone does that. Did u try and change the radio?

Seems that is last what I can try. Or will need to sell it on parts for cheap (.
As I know radio 2.15.00.07.28 is very stable. Which one you recomend to use?
And how to be sure that it will work well with my Current ROM?
Can I install older radio? like 2.07.00.07.16? or even older?
Thanks for help!

i have an idea man maybe you should run an RUU to unroot you and format everything back to the way it was from the factory.... if that dont help it has to be a hardware issue.... let me know and ill help you through it

Thank for helping. Just not sure that unroot may have difference. But will try at last.
What I had found last days. I had changed radio to some version.
On 2.15.00.09.01 was very fast rebooting after try use internet.
On 2.07.00.07.16 was working a bit longer, but not so much.
And 2.05.00.06.11 - the best one! Plus I switched to Stock rom with Android 2.2 and whole day without rebooting.
Only one reboot was when do charging of the device.
The only problem I've under 2.05.00.06.11 that Interent working only via 1x speed. It always tries to connect via 3G, but no luck and switch to 1x.
What do u think now?
Again, thanks for help!

[Q] Losing 3g on Gingervillain 1.3 - 1.9

I've been using GV for months now, but I still have the same issue no matter what kernel I use. If I switch on WiFi, I can't acces my 3G network later on. I have to go to 2G and turn on 3G again to get the connection going again. Putting the device in flight mode also works, but it's a bit of a pain in the ...
I've seen other posts about this problem, but there is no fix that I know of. Any help?
Currently running GV 1.9
Radio: 5.11.05.27
Kernel: 2.6.38.2-defrost-brav

It would be down to the rom and I don't think there is any dev for it anymore... either put up with it or just change rom. You could try updating your radio to 5.14.05.17.

Ok thanks,
I thought flashing a radio was pretty dangerous. How does it work? Same as any other flash?

Yeh, just bung the zip onto your SD, boot into recovery and flash it. Reboot and it will install and your done. It is safer than flashing it through fastboot and it's the way I do it.

Do you have a link to that file?

Nevermind, I flashed a file I found. All is well again.

[Q] GPS

Hi boys, i'm in problems again... i think u can help, or maybe try, if u want, u know.
Well, i don't remeber when, but suddenly gps stop works for me, or if it works, very very very inexact, for example, precision about 1000m... or maps says "ur location is unaivable", i'd try sense 3.5 roms, sense 3.0 roms, cm7 roms, o2 roms, now i'm with miui and still have the problem.
My phone drops accidentaly a few times, and before that, i'd try aGPS fix... but i don't know what's the problem... well, anyone have idea?
thanks!!!
PS: now with MIUI, maps says "ur loc is unaivable" and every app that uses location loop at "getting loc"... doesn't work.

thanks Lazer, i think this gonna help someone

I have a similar problem, my GPS can't find any satelite. I'm using ICS 0.7 and tried with and without aGPS Fix. GPS Status doesn't do anything, it also doesn't find any satelite at all.

ohhh, and what do u think about this? anyone know about a fix or cause of this prob? i dont feel alone at all right nao... see ya

I had the same problem, GPS turns on but it can't find any satellites. I got it fixed under warranty. I think they changed the gps antenna cable, if I remember right. I was changing roms back and forth trying to figure out the cause, but it was a hardware problem.

You can try changing your radio version.

and do u unroot/unrecovery ur phone? ****, it seems like a real trouble
i think i'm gonna explode my phone and take new one from my comp, stock the phone again seems really really heavy

I just flashed the alpharev hboot downgrader, and then the stock 2.2 PB99IMG.zip found here from some sticky. All from recovery and that's it. I read that you should use the stock 2.3 image, so that you wouldn't lose your warranty, but my phone was unbranded, so I guess it didn't matter.

So I opened the phone today and dis- and reconnected the GPS antenna cable (the cable on the left). Didn't do anything though.

I'm using 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.23

(trying to stock it, i've bootlooped and lost my recovery/root, i'm a ****ing idiot )

Install official HTC 2.3 update, it doesn't void your warranty.
