Hey guys. These past few days since I flashed 4.0.4 it feels like something is amiss. I have a very shaky reception and can consider myself lucky if I have tree out of four bars, and while I have three bars, I have no connection to Google sync (the bars are grey)
My father who also has Telia (carrier) on all his phones, has perfect reception all the times without signal loss, however I'm not so lucky. My SIM card doesn't seem to be the problem, so I'm suspecting radio issues. Ever since I started to flash custom ROMs, I've been using the XXLA2 radio which came with the 4.0.4 upgrade. I currently run CM9.
How can I be absolutely sure it's the radio? I'm asking, since I'd really avoid flashing radios.
I was thinking something. I suddenly remember how I don't really run a "full" XXLA2 radio. More like a patched one. When I had flashed stock 4.0.2 yakju on my previously yakjuxw device, and I chose to upgrade through a "ripped" OTA from a guide here on XDA, I noticed the OTA "patched" the radio.
Can that be the issue? That it's patched and not really the full XXLA02 radio?
Update: I reflashed the XXLA02 radio and the problem still persists, so I don't really think it's because of the radio. I'm going to consult Telia about this to see if it's because of them. Strange, though, as my father has almost full reception all the time and he also uses Telia on his three phones.

I'm on a full 4.0.4 radio and have always had issues. There comes a time when people need to just accept that the radio hardware sucks. Its always been like that for Samsung devices. I was always told on my Fascinate that a new radio would fix it...nope.

Strange. My dad has a Samsung Galaxy S2 and no problems whatsoever. Perfect reception without signal-loss or loss of connection to Google's servers.
I can't say if I had this issue while on 4.0.2

Sorry, I'm using the LTE variant. Can't speak for the others. I know that Samsung sucks with CDMA radios. How's your WIFI reception?

It's perfect. WiFi isn't handled by the radio, though, it's handled by the kernel. I'm going to see if this clears up by tomorrow. My carrier said they have some breakdowns, and that it was supposed to clear up by tomorrow. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Sorry to hear that, bro. My phone's sound is a little dodgy, though, but I'm sure it's nothing a little tweak can't fix.
How about returning the phone for a warranty claim?

The issue is due to the min CPU power being to low to support the radio. If you are rooted you can raise your min CPU level to fix the problem. Anything above 500 seems to work...

I get this loud lawn mower type sound when listening to music while using data. It goes basically as loud as my headphones can go and scares the crap out of me. I hardly listen to music anymore just because of it. My wifi doesn't connect to my schools network using EAP. The top half of my display has a different tint than the bottom as well as lots of banding/burn in. I go from 4 bars 3G to 1 bar and then no data at all and not being able to send texts to having 2 bars 4G and losing that in 3 minutes...I should exchange my phone huh? Lol

I flashed back to stock 4.0.2 and I have the same issues.. and I almost never have signal even when NOT in standby.. right now I'm using bamf and CPU minimum is set to 700.. I'm thinking mine is hardware and not 4.0.4.. I bought the phone 3 days ago on 4.0.4 so I don't know how this phone was behaving before 4.0.4..
I'm just confused.. I've tried everything... was the reception issue only a problem on standby or all the time?
Anyone have any ideas for me to try?

I have suddenly been having problems with my 3g. I look at the symbol in the status bar and it will upload but it will not download. It's almost like the code is stuck in a loop. It will randomly start to work again for awhile and then act up later. I have wiped dalvik, cache, and I even reflashed my ROM (FREE GS3). I updated profile and PRL. That was even a problem because I would get an error since it wouldn't download. Before I flash back to stock and call sprint, does anybody have any ideas? One other note. I have driven through LTE areas and both downloads and uploads work with no problem.

Before reflashing call Sprint and see if they are doing tower improvements, this can cause that when they are working in things
I'm going to flash stock and unroot to see if that helps. I work 75 miles from my house and have experienced the problem at homd and at work so I'm pretty sure it's not a tower issue.

Try updating PRL and Profile then restart the phone? That may help, I mean if it does then you just saved like an hour of resetting and restoring. If it doesn't then you just wasted maybe 2 minutes.

Happens to me when I shut off data for any length of time....I just reboot...and it works fine
I called Sprint and they couldn't fix it. I switched the network mode to CDMA from CDMA/LTE and it worked flawlessly. I don't know what that means but something told me my LTE and 3G weren't playing nicely. Whenever I go through a 4G area, it works to perfection. Then I get back in a 3G area and back to the same old thing.
I forgot to mention I flashed to stock unrooted and it seemed to function better but the problem still existed.

I have the same problem I have no idea what to do. I have a custom ROM the only way I get it to work is when I toggle Data on and off really fast. I didn't try the CDMA only though. Either way it's no excuse why our phone's are acting like this.
There was a DATA_HANDOFF.ZIP floating around somewhere....it was made for AOSP but if you make a backup and flash it, it might do some good
I had the same problem. In your phone key pad enter ##72786#. Its going to do hands free activation, prl update, profile update, firmware update (at that point you can cancel)

Same thing started happening to me a couple weeks ago. Tried everything. Only "fix" was setting network to CDMA only. Frustrating.

make sure that the phone is not in "airplane mode".
When you pull down the nofication screen slide the
toggles left and right til you see "airplane mode"
and be sure it's not lit up.
Good luck!
She said she took it to tmobile but they said they can't fix it and can't do nothing about it. As for airplane mode it's not in it. It's weird it would automatically turn of the enable data connection when check it on and try to connect to tmobile network it can't connect and it uncheck the box automatically

The day it came out.
Im a little confused and im wondering if someone can help me out or if someone is going through the same thing i am.... :crying::crying::crying:
So i just got a Galaxy Note 2 from my fathers friend at work and i am wondering is this considered when they say being a blocked IMEI cause its a little confusing...
So I have T-Mobile and i received the Note 2 it is not rooted or anything and the IMEI matches the same in the "About Device" and in the back behind the battery so anyways i go and pop my micro sim card in and notice right away it gets no service it just has a circle with a horizontal line accross like seen on the pics and the lock screen just says "Searching".. i go into mobile networks and try to manually select the T-mobile network and it just gets stuck on "Registering to T-Mobile" then i get an error in my notifications that says "No Service Selected Network (T-Mobile) not available" so right away im assuming that the IMEI must be bad so i call T-Mobile give them the IMEI and they tell me its NOT blocked so now it gets confusing.
while i was still messing with it i decided to turn ON wi-fi and all of a sudden the wi-fi calling feature turns on and viola! the circle with the horizontal line changes to empty service bars and in the notifications dropdown it now says T-Mobile so i go on and make a call IT WORKS! send a text IT WORKS receive calls and texts ALSO WORK! now isnt that wierd?
what do you guys think might be wrong with the phone is the IMEI really blocked but if it is will i be able to make calls and send and receive texts i dont understand please some one help me any advice will be appreciated.. :fingers-crossed:
Thanks (here are pics of screen shots)

Generally, when your IMEI is blocked, you'll have bars and even data. Your phone just won't work. So I doubt it's that. The fact that WiFi calling works tells me that the SIM reader works. Do you know if the phone was taken apart? Maybe the antenna is messed up. Id just try going somewhere else to use your phone and try.
Possibly root and flash different modem?

The sim card reader does work cause sometimes out of the blues the phone will register on the network and im able to use it fully as it should and then it goes back to having the little circle with a line accross it.... today it behaved preety good it gave me a good amount of time of usage but it would still randomly cut off and come back on..... as far as being opened im starting to think it maybe was opened or something cause it doesnt have the "VOID" sticker on the screw in the back like it should..... and maybe what u said about flashing a different modem how can I check what modem I have now?? Cause the phone was rooted and had a custom rom but I restored it back to stock with Odin not sure if doing that will restore the stock modem or not.

I don't think there actually is a void sticker.. When I opened mine up, I didn't find one . I could have just over looked it possibly. Just try flashing JediM14. Comes with everything you need much better than stock. I'm thinking maybe tmobile is working on your area so you have intermittent service. Could be anything. I'll try to help you look into it.

JediM14 comes with the new MD1 firmware. Everything is for Tmobile. During installation, I think aroma gives you options for modem..not completely sure . but if you have tmobile, I'd stick with tmobile modem. Does anyone else have tmobile at your house you can compare signal to?

As long as you're stock and unrooted, you might be able to get a warranty replacement. I know you're not the original owner but it really depends on the rep that you get on the phone. If you get the right rep they'll warranty it based on the fact that no matter who originally purchased the phone, there's no way it could be more than a year old. Or, if you have the premium handset protection, you should be able to get it covered under the extended warranty that it offers.

Call Tmobile and tell them your situation. They'll reset your connection to the towers and it might help. They've done that for me. Just ask for like a connection reset. Even better if you just told them what's happening.

Could be this. I bought a replacement loudspeaker that was apparently for the T889 (which it wasn't)..[Most loudspeaker modules that say they are for the T889 are missing the third contact.] It was a missing a antenna contact which totally killed my reception. Try to take it apart and look at the loudspeaker. There should be three white tab looking things on the module itself. If there's only two, then that's most likely the problem.

Which baseband you got? I doubt we have different ones, since the phone I think only has 2 modems out.
Edit: After looking at the post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2451426 I don't know how to distinguish v7 and v8. Regardless, I highly doubt that's the issue.
Have you tried changing your Preferred network type? Mine is set to "Global" On occasion, I've seen Data enabled turned off seemingly spontaneously on other devices, sooo check that too

They fixed the twrp script on the 12/11 nightly...should work now

actually when i reflashed with new gapps I had Global/3g/2g/LTE as my network options. after it goes out, all I have is LTE/3g/2g and anything but LTE kills radio.
I wonder whats going on. Maybe google is restoring some type of data?
i know the guy who flashed yesterday and had it working, lost data after some time, and I wonder if he ran into same issue I had.

It sounds like the ROM doesn't know how/when to fall back onto 3g to answer phone calls. Did you try 3G or 1x only to test calls?

it switched fine initially. showed 3g in status bar, sent SMS. started a call.
once the preferred network changes, anything but LTE kills the radio. "Emergency Calls Only" is what the status is in the quicktiles. With a blank radio signal indicator.

so i can go into the *#*#4636#*#* menu via the dialer and change the radio mode to EvDO only and get 3g and can make calls and send SMS. If I choose CDMA/LTE it transitions to the LTE network then ****s the bed and won't send SMS or make phone calls. It does send MMS and have fully functioning data on LTE. However, then its just a tablet.
I'm going to wipe and reflash again, as I did mess with a whole bunch of crap now and see if I can get anything figured out.
Any ideas?
Guys with data issues try the apn backup and restore method. Some one needs to get the stock .xml out of a stock rom

Baseband display number is the same from ZV7 to ZV8, hoping LG gives us an actual name for the next one.
What version of gapps are you guys using for this?
