[Q] LiquidSmooth RC8 Problems - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

So I downloaded and flashed the LiquidSmooth that i got from galaxys2rootdotcom since I couldnt find any downloads here.. Im on android 4.1.2 Of course, running mod version Liquid-JB-v2.0-RC8 and kernel [email protected] #1.
Now to the problems, The main one is my data its constantly switching from H+ down to H then back to 3g Then H, H+. Tried switching the network mode and that didnt work went into my apn settings and changing the protocol from Ipv4 to ipv4/ipv6 that didnt work either, keep in mind i unlocked my phone and now running off straight talk via the at&t sim.
Second is the gps, tried going to maps and getting directions and it wouldnt show my location.
Third is the calling, when i call people they told me it sounds like im in a tunnel. So its probably echoing.
Hopefully I can get some answers and maybe help others who have the same problems.

As for the call echo have you tried enabling nose suppression in the phone app settings?

dang data

ok i have the most annoying problem..no matter the rom no matter how much wipe restore wipe system wipe cache and dalvick cache..no matter what radio i install whether it be the latest or the rom already contains the latest..my dang galaxy nexus is always dropping service when it is using 3g and hspa...when i go into the settings and tell it to use 2g it will never ever drop..but as soon as i take that off ? here goes the constant dropping..its so annoying it makes the phone being on tmobile prepaid useless..see at first i thought it was tmobile screwing with me but as soon as i put my sim card in my trusty old galaxy s running slim bean 4.1.2 ...bam 3g and hspa work just damn fine..no dropping, or nothing..so then i figure "hey maybe my apn settings are wrong" nope they are exactly the same on both phones"

radios didnt work i still got data drops..to be honest the only thing that has worked which i wasnt sure if i should try was franco's milestone 6 i thought it was not gonna work *in his description he said he fixed the infamous data drops* but see i was questionable which i shouldnt have been cuz his works pretty amazing...and well it ried it and i can tether again my data has yet to cease, because before? anytime i tried to do something that required even an ounc of data the signal dropped..but now its running flawlessly and id have to say a tad bit faster than normal..so for anyone reading this just give franco's kernel a shot

[Q] No radio service after Jedi X-9 flash

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note II - AT&T version.
I flashed Jedi X-9's rom and noticed I couldn't connect to the Play Store nor the Internet.
I wasn't able to send SMS but could call and receive calls.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2005141
I then flashed the atti317ucalj2modemfixed, rebooted - same thing.
http://d-h.st/QCG
Is anyone else having this issue?
Please let me know!
Thanks,
- J.
I had the same issue. Try flashing over to the k7 modem. Its seems pretty good for alot of users. I prefered the j2 that cam with it because its seems more stable for me.

Thanks for the reply.
Is that what you did, was switch to the K7 modem?
Thanks!
Yeah. I actually backed up when i had the j2 and flashed the k7. For me, it wasnt too stable so i went back to the j2. But maybe you might have better luck with the k7 depending on where you live.

Awesome, I'm flashing it now. - I'll let you know how it is.
EDIT: No Dice. the k7 did not work. :*(
Also, it seems the Jedi X-9 rom doesn't like my SanDisk 64gig class 10 card.. doesn't read, nor mount
have you confirmed you APN settings are entered correctly? these settings allow you to connect to data, SMS, MMS, etc. i'd also confirm your IMEI is still present.

I don't think I had to configure any APN settings. I did connect to my local router.
I see an IMEI preset, dBm, signal strength.
I'm thinking of just trying a new rom.

Connecting to your router has nothing to do with your APN. (If that's what you were inferring). Did you at least confirm your APN settings are there? With some ROMs you might have to manually add them.

Most custom ROM's are without radios. You can always pull the radio and edit the update script.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using XDA Premium HD app
Yes you can edit the update scrip tried a sprint room they have the radio the only ones that dont have it are the cm 10.1 but we have cm10.1 why should we flash a room that we alredy have and we dont have edit the update scrip well thats my opinion

So you say we can't because you are lazy? If you want a sprint or Verizon rom you would be willing to remove the radio file and update the script (honestly 2 minutes of work).
I can confirm I had the 4.1 version of sprints PA ROM (was out before ours or ATT) working, I needed tmobile radio and kernel (took from early port of CM10) and needed an APN app to set APNS as settings APN selector force closed on me.

The radio you get from the development forum. you have a good radio if you get T-Mobile signal. Try downloading HiAPN Global or see if you can change the APNs in the settings menu, I would bet you the APN for T-Mobile is not there.

pegapega02 has been lazy about roms for what feels like eternity, I wouldn't sweat it.
A week ago I tested exactly what you mentioned here... a sprint rom with the tmobile radio. Worked like a champ. Ended up going back to Teshxx's deodexed t-mobile rob because at the end of the day, every single thing works right out of the box, including the themes I want to install on top.
How did you get around the APN force close issue?

In case you need to keep an eye on the ROMs, here is an up-to-date list.

Help please, no service.

So first off, im running The Devil's Reject v6 with a cwm touch 6.0.2.3(?)
and i flashed over the intergalactic v2.5 kernel, soon after that my messages werent going through so i thought it was just the kernel that didnt wanna work with my phone, so i flashed the intergalactic 2.6 and same issues, i could connect to wifi and i have one to two signal bars but the 4g or 4g lte never came up. i then flashed the stock kernel that the TDRv6 was originally running and the issue was still the same. no service but wifi connection and signal bars. later on after some research i learned that i had lost my imei number. i was able to recover it but still the service never came back..
Please any help would be great!

Sounds dumb but verify that your imei came back and is the same as behind the battery.
Check to make sure your APN settings are set up correctly.
There has been instances where no data after restoring imei, there is a thread dedicated to it. Simple search will help you.

Yeah I did the restore imei thread and the number was good but then the service was still bad. Like it would go to G and then drop. I couldn't do anything on network. But I found this thread and it worked amazingly.

Do you have lte in your area? My area just got lte this weekend. And when the change was made, I did not have data service until changed back to the pta apn. I thought it may have been the rom. But it wasn't.

Yeah I have lte in my area. Ive had it for a while but it wasnt that, I had just flashed something and somehow in the process I lost my imei number which didn't allow me to do anything under the network. Idk if it was an issue with the recovery or with the zip file but I got it all worked out, thanks.

Stuck on Edge

So I was wondering if T-Mobile had refarmed my area with the 1900 MHz frequency...I used pasted *#*#4636#*#* into my phone dialer and I pressed the menu button and selected the USA (1900) Band...I was on Edge, so I realized T-Mobile did not refarm my area yet...However, my phone is stuck on the 1900 MHz band...I can't go back to AWS for some reason. I've tried rebooting and reflashing my radio, but to no avail...I'm on AOKP 4.2.2 (March 22 nightly) with Cerux Kernel. I was wondering if anyone had a clue as to how to return to 1700 MHz(AWS)
Surprised that you got the code to work on a jb rom. None of the codes work except imei on mine. You have to go into service mode and find phone settings for band *#32489#. Hit back a few times and you will see the menu if you can get the code to work. It still works on gb roms but not on jb for me

So, do I have to flash another ROM? I just restored a nandroid of SlimBean, but it's still stuck on Edge...
Yes get a gb rom. Then type *#*#197328640#*#* into dialer and it will give you service mode menu. From there find band settings and you will be able to change frequency. Once you change it you can reinstall a jb rom and settings will stick

It should work fine. I have changed a few settings on my phone using the service menu in the past. Like I said the settings will stick even if you flash another rom so you should be ok.

Tmo is doing lots of work and I have noticed lots of flaky data lately.
I would hold off on blaming the phone, as I myself this week have had to switch airplane mode and do reboots to get out of edge/no data.
