S2 signal issues 4.2.2 - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Hi, I'm looking for a solution. I rooted my girlfriend's T-Mobile s2 and changed out the rom for slim 4.2 and it worked well without any signal issues. I then updated to a later build (build 6&7, tried both) and tried other 4.2.2 roms. I noticed she wasn't getting signal at all. I was told to install the 4.1.2 radio for it. I did just that, and it worked, she then had signal. I was hoping that did it, but no it now just has signal and constantly loses it and a reboot is needed. This happens on any ROM I use. Any idea(s)? It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I am having the same issue and I started a thread about it also with no solutions yet. I flashed newest radio and still can't get any 4.2 Roms to work either, (for not getting signal, ie:radio) you are not alone! I have searched to no end and still have not found any answers. Started from scratch from both touch and non-touch CWM.

it has to be a hardware issue for you @Sargeue because if you went to stock and nothing has fixed your issues has to be the phone, Ive never had any signal issues with my s2 on the latest MC6 ever, so sorry you have having this issue give SAMMY a call if your not under warranty with T-mobile see what they can do for you

I did install the UVMC6 radio to her phone. But it loses signal and I or she always has to reboot it for signal to return. But if I use an older 4.2.2 rom like Slimbean 4.2 it works flawlessly. I don't understand. Maybe the UVMC6 I downloaded was bad?

Hey @blue if you/she like SLIM then flash this https://www.copy.com/s/eQvTcgdXKB0g/Cl3Kener/WICKEDAWESOME/Liquid-JB-v2.9-Linaro-Hercules.zip its updated liquid smooth and then flash the slim gapps you have, you will have the slim look and feel but with RADIO and report back if all else fails i say just stick to the slim you get signal on that's really weird you have issues with the latest radio or for ish and giggles try flashing the radio again a fresh download

i had this problem with slim too. i thought something went wrong with my phone or my area. but nope. what you need to do is go to mikeyman777 cm10.1 thread and find the uvmc6 tar file, then use odin to flash it. apparently just flashing the newest radio with twrp isn't enough because it's missing some files or something like that lol.
anyways i haven't had signal problems since flashing radio tar file. i've lost signal like once. before i was losing it everyday. hope this helps.

Telus T989D ICS CM9 nightly poor call quality *FIX*

So I've been playing around with CM9 Rom and I had no issues with it except with the poor call quality on the recipient side of the call was poor (sounded like low bit rate) or (underwater as some say)
At first I had used the following which gave me the poor call quality:
cm-9-20120620-NIGHTLY-hercules
gapps-ics-20120429-signed
TELUS_SGH-T989D_LE4_ICS_Radio_MOD
to resolve the issue i was having I did the following updates....
cm-9-20120620-NIGHTLY-hercules
gapps-ics-20120429-signed
Blaze_4G_LB7_ICS_Radio_MOD
so basically just got the newest nightly build and changed the radio to Blaze and so far its been working great on both sides of calling...
hope this works for others as it did for me
No. The rom itself fixed the audio issue, not radio
Sent from Samsung Galaxy SIV
well when i was using the newest nightly rom with telus radio i still had the problem...
changed the radio and it works much better.... sorry i forgot to mention that....

please stop using gb radios and radios that coem from the blaze. use the TLLE4 or the UVLE1 radios.
I have used those aswell and still had an issue with quality...
I have only been using ICS radios...Is the Telus_SGH-T989D_Kj3_radio a GB radio??
I was only interested in it as I have not tried it yet..
The blaze ICS radio seems to work

use either the TLLE4 or UVLE1 radios with the build mikeman77 has posted. users have mirrored it so others can get it since users have downloaded so much off his drop box they suspended it.
here is a mirror

thanks mr.x I will be trying this out ASAP
how is this build that mikeman77 posted any different?
can you send me the original link so I can do some reading on it?

I'm on Telus in Calgary and have never been able to see over 4 or 5 Mbps download on the Speedtest.net app using the Blaze radio. With Telus radios, I see over 20 Mbps.

Basically mikeman77 disabled BLN to reduce its battery drain and he fixed audio issues in the June 20th build. BLN is the backlight notification you can get on the buttons.
I'm using the uvle1 radio, and my call quality is perfect! However, I did have the underwater issues when I first flashed the team chopsticks alpha rom. So, all I really did afterwards was flash the nighty build dated on 6/17 directly over the cm9 rom, wiped cache/dalvik, NO data, and now everything works! Still running the same build.

I haven't flashed it yet, but know others have without issue. Did you check the MD5 hash? Could be a bad download. Did you wipe cache with cwr or use the cache wipe script?

hash is fine.
i used cwm.. didn't knew there is wipe script.
do i need to flash it with the script ? if yes where do i find it how do i flash it please ?
i can't boot up the phone anymore all i can do is use odin now.

It's sort of a known issue for most if you use CWR to wipe cache, you can get stuck on boot screen. It borks the cache partition. Here is the link to TDJ's cache wipe script. Make sure you only use the cache wipe script after flashing the ROM. The super wipe script is used before you flash the ROM. The cache wipe script download is right below the super wipe. Just place on your sd card and flash. that should fix your issue if the MD5 matches.....Good luck and let us know.

I thought you said in your post you had a T989D. I'm not sure the script will even work on your device.
I just went and looked at your post and you do have T989D listed in the post and then the i9100 in your signature. That leaves me a little confused.

4.4.2 ROM Signal Problems.

Hey guys, I've been having problems with 4.4.2 KitKat ROMs. I'm not a newb when it comes to flashing ROMs, but whenever I install a 4.4.2 ROM, I lose my service and can't make calls or use mobile data. Now im guessing it has to do with the radio/modem. Now when it comes to radios/modems, im a newb.
Is there something different about 4.4.2 ROMs that I'm not aware about? I've flashed plenty of other ROMs before, but never had this problem.
If any of you guys can help, I would greatly appreciate it.
Here is my about phone screen. Next to baseband it said nb4. What does yours say?

I'm having a problem that I cant figure out also. I had Beanstalk, working good.. Then someone posted a beanstalk 0414 link from AT&T . As soon as I did this I had this unresolvable problem where many (not all) cant call me or text me. I can text them and call them. When I call my cell from a desk phone, it says "one moment" or something it gets cut off then it rings my phone. I tried odin'ing nb4 and it's there but my phone just doesn't something.
I went back and odin'ed the stock rom, rerooted etc.. but no difference. same issue. Now I put the original working beanstalk on my phone and its fine other then the issues noted above. I'm in south florida, I wonder if there is an issue with NB4 down here.
PS. When I odin'ed back Stock, my Baseband was still nb4, is this correct? the modem wont change?

This procedure will work, I updated my modem to NB4 before kitkat and had no data loss whatsoever after upgrading to kitkat.

Installed NB4 Modem while on 4.2.2 and it worked. Thanks for everyones help. Signal seems to be the same, if not better! Now my recovery is acting wonky, but its not cause of the modem, I know that for sure.... that should be no problem though, I was just inexperienced with modems and needed help with that. Thanks!

I live in central FL and NB4 works perfect. As for rerooting you would have to flash back to the original modem for it to change. Before you do that, try flashing a different kernel like ktoonzes

Download the Google Specific No SSL version (first download link). Flash that in recovery. See if that helps.
If it doesn't, try the next one, the Google specific one with SSL
If that doesn't work, look further down the list and use the one specific to your carrier.
If that doesn't work...I dunno.
You will likely have to flash this again when you update the ROM. But no big deal. You can do it in recovery right after you flash the ROM update.

Hi,
So here's what I've done.
First Im pretty sure its related to the modem or radio? is it the same? I remember flashing a 4.3 rom from 4.2 and the network wasnt working so I had to flash a md5 modem.
Now I tried flashing official 4.2.2
No go.
Upgrading official to 4.3
No go
Upgrading official to 4.4
No go
Now I'm back on CM 11 because I like the rom.
I don't know what to do next...

If you have flashed official firmware then it is not radio/modem related. It would be hardware related. This is the reason I stay away from CM. It works perfect while you use it but once you go back to TW it causes conflicts for me most of the time. I have used GPS status and cleared the cached GPS data and downloaded the GPS data and it fixes itself within minutes. I also have at least 2 users that had your same issue use the app and followed the instructions and confirmed the method to be working. I believe that CM leaves remnants of the system that cause a conflict with any other system. I had a full wipe file in my extsd but deleted it somehow. I can't remember where I got it from but it does wonders. It wipes everything and prevents leftover crap from the previous ROM or system so there is no conflicts. For example there is a folder in my internal SD called wicked ROM that I cannot delete for the life of me! The only way that I could get rid of it would be going back to stock or flashing the full wipe zip that I no longer have because I lost it. Anyway I will try to find this zip and share with you and you can flash you ROM after. Hopefully it will work for ya.

I can't remember where I got it from but it does wonders. It wipes everything and prevents leftover crap from the previous ROM or system so there is no conflicts. For example there is a folder in my internal SD called wicked ROM that I cannot delete for the life of me! The only way that I could get rid of it would be going back to stock or flashing the full wipe zip that I no longer have because I lost it. Anyway I will try to find this zip and share with you and you can flash you ROM after. Hopefully it will work for ya.

I'm in the exact same boat as the op... And I've tried all the same steps to fix it (including the gps app) but with no luck. Only difference being that I'm not on CM. I'm on the 4.4.2 GE ROM (aosp)
Any help here would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks fellas

Latest Modem and Kernel from COH4 update

Since I didn't see anyone pull the modem and kernel from the last stagefright update in Sept., thought I'd do it for the few of us that still have this old device.

Was there an OTA for T-Mobile? I'm currently on a AOSP Rom.

Yeah, but you need to be on a stock ROM to get the OTA, or you can download the whole ROM from sammobile.com. It's a security fix for stagefright. I just wanted to try the new modem and see if it made any difference. I won't be able to test the kernel, since I switch back and forth between a 4.4.4 TW ROM and 5.1 CM ROM.
Appreciate the info, have you notice better signal with the new radio?

Maybe a little better signal (?), but basically the same. Haven't been on it real long, I'll have to see if the standby improves after I've been on it a while.

Are you dual booting? Is it possible?
Warning, don't flash this modem. I did and it killed my baseband. I tried flashing 3 other roms which wouldn't even finish booting to my phone before I finally realized it and flashed my original modem back and all was working again.

Working fine on mine. Did you maybe get a bad download? You could maybe try downloading again?
Which modem did you go back to?
Flashed fine and so far no issues. Previous user might have a bad download or different device.
Flashed via TWRP today.. I had no service after reboot but did another restart and it was working.
Don't know if its any better than the previous modem version but will give it a try. thx
Working great here no issues
With old bootloader md1 4.1.2 with ROMofTHRONESv1.0

You caused the problem when you altered the stock ROM. From your thread about it here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-2-tmobile/help/recent-tmo-ota-update-bricked-wifes-t3245890), you said "Had her note 2 with stock 4.3, Rooted it last year to titanium backup and uninstall a couple bloatware apps. " This is what caused your problem. It was no longer a stock ROM when you remove apps. I know it doesn't seem like it would be a big deal, but it is, and you found out unfortunately

That's kinda what I was thinking had happened.
I suppose I shouldn't blame the OTA. I just noticed someone else had issues with it too.
so to the people that actually flashed this new modem and kernel, is it working better than previous iterations?
question:
I flashed the C0H4 modem on note 2 (nameless lollipop rom) seems ok...
DO I have to also flash the Kernel ? is there an advantage to flashing the kernel? thx
Hello! Thanks for this! I flashed this over TWRP 2.8.7.1, and wiping my dalvik cache. My phone's originally T889UVALK8 (16gb SGH-T889 t0ltetmo) and the signal drops but after flashing this (C0H4) the signal greatly improved, although I'm having some signal instability since I'm supposed to have full bars because my house is just in line of sight, 2km from the tower. Also I think I'll do a clean install of another custom ROM since I'm using the CM12.1 t0lte nightly, and maybe this affects my signal (I know I'm stupid for doing it but it works).
Welp. After rebooting, the phone lost signal again. I have to do a wipe of dalvik cache to restore my signal. I guess I'll try using another ROM instead.
Upodate: I may be experiencing hardware issues. I have yet to flash back to stock since my phone's signal drops. I can't flash the firmware because it says 'zip signature verification failed.'

BUT, "yours" seems to be a completely different phone! It says Galaxy Note 4, SM-N910C...
What's up with that?!

It's just the ROM I flashed that makes it say that. That ROM is in my signature... DN4
