GSM conection completly dead. On every ROM.

I dont wanna keep spamming Doomlords kernel Thread so i created a new one here.
The thing is that after flashing Doomkernel v11 (maybe the is not the reson) my gsm conection is completly broken. No calls, No SMS, No Data.
I tried flashing kernel v10, full wipe, flashing with flashtool fw .368, .42, .62.
Nothing of that changes anything.
please help me!

Have you overclocked your CPU?
Sent from my beautiful Xperia PLAY using xda premium

yes, but only up to 1.2 ghz but the new doomkernel wich maybe coused this has also gpu overclock. Could it be the reson?

Have you tried the repair tool in SE PC Companion (or is it SEUS?). I haven't used it since I had an x10 mini pro, but I remember it could solve all sorts of problems. Could be worth investigating

Hmm i have to lock my bootloader for that. Okay i will give it a try.

Tried it multiply times. Changed nothing.

First, don't worry! My friend had the same problems with radio in his Arc S...
This thing worked for him - It may sound stupid but turn off your phone, pull the battery and put your phone in some cool and safe place and don't use it for some time, a week or two.
At his case after about 12 days everything went back to normal and I don't f*cking know why
Cheers!

I will try that. But if it does not work its 12 days wasted time...

Hey Bro, feel bad for you
I remember it happened to me when I did something stupid with v10. And have no radio after that.
Don't know if this will work for you but what I did was flashed .42 first then it had signal and flashed .62 again and everything is okay now.

Have you tried flashing back to stock kernel?

Stock kernel is being flashed whenever you flash stock ROM.
Try writing to alejandrissimo, he had some fixes for broken radio.
Sent from my beautiful Xperia PLAY using xda premium

jep i contacet him, he said he can fix it but it coasts 24 dollar, i did not really understand why. But thats still much cheaper than if i send it to sony and they void my warrenty.... but i sended it to sony two month ago becouse of broken flexcable and that was completly free... hard decision...

This radio repair is paid because of setool credits that are needed to be used in order to repair your device using this software.
But you have warranty, 24$ is not much and if radio repair work for you, you will still have warranty in case of serious damage.

You want random reboots?
If you have doomkernel or any other kernel with cpu voltage changing enabled, download IncrediControl and set all of your CPU voltages to the lowest values. Your phone will restart faster than you blink your eyes

I think that's your problem. I know there are many games that don't work on AOSP because the drivers aren't fully functional or optimized.

Just a quick observation here.
This is a forum made up of people that enjoy their epic 4g touch. When you start a thread called "This phone really does suck!!!!" You might not get a lot of help. Now put your phone down and go outside and play!

The huge problem with nothing ever being good enough is you'll never be happy. Take your phone for what it is instead playing the "find some flaws" game with yourself...there is no perfect phone (if there was, there would only be one phone), if you get a new phone you'll find something about it to complain about just like your current phone...

I think we can get clockworkmod full functional soon. Once that happens, development can really start. The other trick will to get around the locked bootloaders, but if we follow the steps that the Xperia S took that should not be a huge problem.

sorry to ask a very ignorant question...but i thought sony had given options to support bootloader unlocking?? they gave the processes themselves.. atleast thats what they did with the arc s. So the only reason development hasnt kicked off is because of the bootloader issue?

No, the main reason is that without a fully working cwm and without sources, it was just about worthless to make any attempt at modding. Now I think we have both, I have to do some more testing to make sure that my latest version of cwm is fully working and sources were just posted today so that is why it has taken so long, not to mention the lack of development support at this time. Beside me, I only know of one other at this time trying to help build stuff. (not to say no one else is). Yes, bootloader being locked is a pain in the ass, but I think we found a lot away around it at this time. The LT28i and LT28h can unlock their bootloaders without much problem. The LT28at has locked bootloaders that is harder to unlock.

I was hesitant to get the ion because of lack of development, but honestly with rooted ICS, this phone is awesome. I got it free, just like my xperia x10 a few years ago. I love xperia phones, so couldn't pass up the upgrade, i have no doubt there will be some stuff rolling for this soon enough, i had oodie prime miui on my x10, so many roms to choose from on x10 and i flashed atleast 100. With the ion i have a new adventure to look forward to.

thank you so much for the info mate......& goodluck with the development....very much looking forward towards the development of this phone...even if i DONT get it....i live in bangaldesh so if i do get it, i'll get the lt28h.

I need / want a 2nd Android phone and Sony is the one Android I have not owned. One X is #1 phone but need a 2nd and I keep coming back to the ION. S3 been there Touchwiz moans. The only hold up is no ICS. No good reason from Sony not to have out of the box. Sales killer. Period! That must be why its free or $29.
Skyrocket tons of Rom's and Mod's and ICS update while back.
But I really want to try this Sony ION if I can get past the ICS thing.
BTW- Sony online - Out of Stock. Anybody else free on a two year contract? Can't go too wrong if free vs. what I've paid for the S3 and HOX.
Thanks for all the post, really good info.

I don't understand why is this subject even arised ?. This is a new phone just came out, it takes time to crack it. We have gone a long way getting ICS updated on our Own. Chill out, it eventually will get there - latest & greatest.
If you are *****ing about Sony release the phone with GB or not much roms or mods, then go with another phone brand. Anything wont change the fact it has an older OS installed and developers take their time understanding the code to crack. So make up your mind and Live with it - Better yet do it yourself - stop your winning.

Wasn't me about custom ROMs really. Haven't even done that on my HOX yet. Waiting for JB. I really like the Sony ION but G.B.? Really its embarrassing for Sony and killing the sales too .But I have two Androids as of tomorrow so I can wait. Yea ICS and Apex (only for ICS) work really well. But I can't wait to get the ION and dig into it. Also, thought I read somewhere that they just released the final source code right? So it can't be that long.
If I get 4.1 on my HOX before 4.x on my ION. There's a big issue somewhere and its not at&t.
That's my only real concern. Not much resale value as currently sits.

Killing sales? Care to back that up? You can't because actually the phone has been selling well. The low on contract price has made the phone very attractive for people. And remember the majority of the public has no clue about GB cs ICS vs JB.

This is more true than most can actually believe. Ask any random person what kind of (Android) phone they have, and unfortunately...most reply simply with... "I have a droid" ... And to these people, that could be ANY Android OS based phone... Not the actual Motorola Droid, as we in this community understand.

Idiot mistake and the company that fixed it for me

I made the ultimate mistake the other day. I flashed a kernel for another device onto my S3 and of course paid the price of bricking my phone.
To set the scenario, I had back surgery last Thursday and was released from the hospital on Friday with a supply of pain killers and orders to not do anything. Well, while sitting around doing nothing I got bored and decided to work on a couple of my friends tablets that needed rooting and roms installed. I got them done without any issue and then decided to mess with my phone. There were a couple of new kernels I wanted to test and so I decided to do this. I booted into recovery and selected the kernel and flashed. At that moment I realized that the kernel I just flashed was not for my phone and when I tried to turn on the phone and nothing happened, I knew immediately what I had done and after saying a few nasty words to myself I started searching for a way to fix it. While searching through the forums I kept reading about MobileTechVideos.com and their ability to jtag repair phones. Since I have never had to do this and my phone was not going to work anyway I decided to give them a call and see what they had to offer. I called them and asked about their services and they said that it should be no problem fixing my phone. I live in Dallas and the company is in Bryan, about 3 1/2 hr drive, I decided the easiest and fastest way to get my phone repaired was to take it to them and wait. On Tuesday morning I drove to Bryan and dropped off my phone. When I had called them they told me it might be a couple of hours to fix it, but once I told them it was a tmobile device they told me to wait because it might only take a few minutes. During this time they showed me around the office and I was really impressed. What impressed me the most is that no one working for this comany could have been over 25, even the owner. So after a brief tour of the office, about 10 minutes, my phone was fixed and was ready to go. I paid my $60, which I believe was well worth it, said thank you and was on my way with my fully functional phone.
They never asked me to post anything and I don't have any affiliation with this company. I just want to post about a company that provided the service they said they would at a price that is reasonable since without it I would have a $600 paperweight. So if anyone ever happens to make the foolish mistake that I made and you need your S3 repaired, I would 100% recommend this company. Here is the link to their website, http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com, mods let me know if this is not allowed and I will remove it.
I know I am always questioning online companies likes these, but this particular company has earned a customer for as long as they are open and support whatever device I happen to be using. I just hope that since I made this mistake I will hopefully never make it again.
Moral of story: If on heavy doses of pain killers don't crack flash kernels. If might cost you in the end. :}

Never bricked a phone before but I've heard great things about that company. If I ever run to trouble I'll surely go to them immediately.
Thanks for the review.

Hey dude. Im in Dallas too. Good to know. I read all about them. They are really good in jtag fix devices. They were the first ti have s-off on the htc one.

Thanks. I am not one who likes reviewing companies, but this one time I felt it was justly deserved. I read to many threads about shipping your device to someone and for a cheaper cost they will fix it. That makes me uncomfortable. I would rather pay a little more for the peace of mind. Even then I was more comfortable driving as far as I did, after just having surgery, because of my skeptism. That is why I felt the review was warranted to help someone when they are not local.

It wasn't a bad kernel, it was a kernel for a different device. I was working on several devices that day and put a kernel for a nook tablet into my S3 folder by mistake. Teaches me to only work on one device at a time.

Can't you just re flash the entire rom stock or not with Odin or cwm?
I dunno, first time I "bricked" my phone was from an incorrect kernel also. Just downloaded stock touch wiz rom go to download mode and flash with Odin.
I'm not aware that you can brick your phone unless you mess with the bootloader itself.
Bricking means exactly what it sounds like. It's just a piece of useless hardware that you can't recover, in this case, with an incorrect kernel flash, you can, either through another kernel that is compatible with your device or re flash the entire rom; with either Odin or cwm.

When trying to connect to computer it would not recognize the device correctly. So no odin if you can't connect to computer. No flashing anything else if the phone doesn't turn on. That would be as hard bricked as you can get.

Yeah but you can't hard brick it if you flash a wrong kernel unless the kernel replaces your bootloader.
Oh wait, ok I get it. You flashed a kernel that replaces the bootloader also, like with the international dual boot kernel
