I am having some radio issues and wondered if anyone has had similar issues. I had updated from the 4.0.3 radios to 4.0.4 and everything was working fine with data but every single call I made would drop out where I could hear them but they could no longer hear me. This happened no matter who I was calling and no matter where I was calling from. I then reverted back to 4.0.3 and the same thing was happening which did not happen before I upgraded to 4.0.4. I also tried updating my prl on both radios which did not help. If anybody could provide some insight it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
I've heard of this issue, and it is still a known issue that needs to be addressed yet in an update. You're best bet would be to call/stop into Verizon and explain this to them, I'm sure they are plenty aware of it. I would hope they'd replace your phone, but there is still a possibility it could happen to the new unit. I have not seen any fix anywhere for this issue.
Hey there everyone, so since i flashed the CM10 nightly from the 24th, wifi has been nearly completely broken for me. You may have seen my posts where i described how my phone barely ever manages to load anything over wifi and when it does, it does so intermittently and at an extremely slow pace. This renders wifi pretty much useless on my phone. Mobile data IS working though.
Now, i first thought it might just be an issue with the nightly i was using, but this issue persisted on the nightlies from the 25th and 26th of this month (which i did full wipes between). So then, since i wanted to stay with Jelly Bean, i decided to try out Tgascoignes AOSP Jelly Bean (another full wipe here), but then this same issue was there as well. Then, i figured i'd try the first Jelly Bean CM10 nightly, since everything was working great on that one, but then this issue with wifi was still there.
So then i thought it must be an issue with Jelly Bean, so i went back to the most trustworthy and stable ROM i have used so far - One Maximus V2.1 with ICS. Then, this issue still persisted.
So, the tl;dr version of this is, wifi isn't working on any ROM for me and i can't seem to do anything to fix it and i really need some help with this. Do you guys think it might be a hardware issue? My router has been working perfectly for other wireless devices in my house. What plan of action would you recommend? Any help will be very very highly appreciated.
Also, the reason that i'm posting this as a new thread is because this isn't the same wifi antenna problem that has been documented a lot in the other thread. My wifi reception doesn't improve or vary depending on where i press on my phone and that's not the issue at all. If this post still doesn't deserve it's own thread then mods, please remove it and i will ask for help elsewhere.
The most complete restore would be to fastboot oem lock and.run the RUU for your device.
If that doesn't fix it, I don't know what will and neither will HTC I suspect, they'll likely replace the motherboard.

Well, i fully restored my phone back to stock and the issue is still persisting . Mobile data is also being really weird now even though i have set the correct APNs.
I also can't update my phone from the 1.29 firmware to the 2.17 base firmware because my carrier (Virgin) hasn't bothered to put any effort towards pushing out an update.
I think i will have to claim the warranty for my phone through Virgin and hope that they don't notice that it has been re-locked as other people have had such luck too.
Does anyone else have any other ideas about this?
I had a similar problem with my sensation after flashing some custom ( & official roms not meant for my region). Try WIFIX, somewhere in the forums. This could be a WiFi radio region code problem

just do it through virgin - in uk its the retailers responsibility to repair, replace or refund it if they can't prove that the fault was caused by you unlocking it etc.. (if before 6 months after purchase)
I don't know how this has happened now but I had a feeling that there was something wrong with the WiFi antenna of my phone, so I squeezed it really tight at the top left corner where the WiFi antenna is located (as seen in the WiFi faults thread) and now all of the issues mentioned above have been fixed . I have no idea if it was just pure luck and coincidence but now my phone is working normally again. If it wasn't a coincidence, then I really hope that this issue doesn't come up again.
I feel very lucky either way right now! No more need to worry about warranty issues and such . Thanks anyway to you guys for replying though, it's good that this forum chips in to help out those that are in need of help!
Dammit i have no idea what is wrong with my phone. Wifi and mobile data were working fine for a day and a half on the stock ROM, so then i decided to re-root and flash some custom ROMs again and this annoying wifi issue is back now :S. Why would this even happen? I am honestly at such a loss with this. Does anyone have any ideas about what's going on?
I am sure you guys have heard this one before.
BTW thanks again for all the help on rooting my GNex. I did it only for experience and being able to tether my N7 to my phone and it works pretty good. The Gnex crashes sometimes while tethering.
So being on 4.0.2 and rooted stock and on Verizon I noticed several months ago my OTA updates were not being verified and thus not being installed. I was hoping the problem would go away but it has not and now my Gnex is crashing, almost daily, re booting and bugging the heck out of me with that nagging window telling me there is an update available.
Please keep in mind that I really love the tethering on my unlimited data plan and would like to keep a way to do that.
So should I try to side load the update to get to 4.04 or go back to stock? and start over.
Thanks for all the help

Can anyone point me to a fix for this problem?
Ive looked everywhere for a solution but cant seem to find one. My N7, currently running CM11, will randomly reboot for seemingly no reason. Sometimes i can go a day or two and nothing but just when i get comfortable, BLAM! Im not particularly worried just frustrated. I dont know what to do and I have read that its sort of common whether stock or custom(ROM). Im debating on trying to revert to stock because i cant seem to remember having this problem before CM, but i really cant be sure. Id rather not revert to stock if im just gonna have this issue but if it seems to work for others then id just go stock. Anyway I guess im saying that I need some advice here on what others experienced or think. Has reverting to stock worked for anyone else? Any other advice/insight would be greatly appreaciated!
-Thanks
The fix is coming, when Google releases Android 4.4.3, by the end of the month.. Sit tight

My stock N7 reboots randomly from time to time. It might go a week or more then reboot twice in one day. No apparent pattern to it.

I am experiencing precisely the same issue described in the OP. So I am also pretty interested in knowing if there's a fix.
@BSnapp, how can you be so sure of that upcoming fix? Is there a known issue with 4.4.2 for the N7 that was resolved for the next version? Any sources worth mentioning?
Thanks.
It's all over the Android news sites that Google is including a fix for the random reboot, plus several other fixes.. Just Google Android 4.4.3 update, and you will find the answers you seek...

anyone else having issues?
the moment i reverted from a rooted OTA5.1 to a non-rooted OTA 6.0 i've been getting play services not responding. I finally did the OTA 6.0 update 10days ago.
I factory reset and still the same problem. I experienced no issues on the rooted OTA 5.1 so i dont think it's a hardware related issue.
looking around, this seems to come up often but no solution so i guess i'm looking for a "me too" to make me feel better that it's no isolated and an update will fix it..
found the problem by using safemode - one of the widgets it seems. probably the 2x1 graph widget of battery info with the '3C toolbox Pro' app as thats the only one not been restored.
