i had low signal from day one but occasionally had perfect 4g lighting speed
my question is can flashing a rom make me loose signal ....after flashing an updated rom today i had almost no signal at all ...
called verizon and they went through what they needed to do and said they are going to send a new sim card ....if that doesn't work they are going to do a factory restore....
anyone have any clue ?
....do... what...huh... does not...compute?
bow chicka wow wow.
Have you tested the signal with other phones? Like say for instance did a friend who with Verizon have better signal in the same room? I know these galaxy nexuses don't have the best signal, but it isn't THAT bad.
Most roms I've seen come devoid of radios, check the dev section and try out a few different radios.
IMO if the radio packages and new simcard don't work flash back to 100% stock and unroot, then send it in on warranty.

Yes we did test the phones , my buddy has the same phone and was on 4g while I had 1x...both phones running liquid smooth 1.25 ...for some reason when I ran the older version I believe it was just 1.2 I had way better signal ...
I'm not asking for advice just want to see what people are up to with the phone. Details welcomed.
I am still a dinc user running this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2020866&nocache=1
It's a JB (4.1.1) runs great has all the JB features and more cool add ons to it.:angel:
Still my main phone, and i will continue to use it till it dies. I use my Gb based rom TOB, you can find the link in my sig. I see no reason to get a new phone, when its basicly the same thing i have now with a faster processor. And i dont really play games on my phone, so processor speed isnt a huge selling point for me.
I'm with lusco I won't upgrade till my phone is dead. I've almost made it 3 years on this phone (4/29). I think she can gimme 3 more. Rom
Touchwiz 5.1.4 ICS 4.04. I have a nice stash of roms on my dropbox to avoid dead links if I need a switch

Using stock rooted Rom from cmlusco. Like the stock feel and like sense UI. New phone will be note2 or s4 unlocked when I feel I have enough money to upgrade. For now I'm happy with my dinc.

Either phone will probably be locked by Verizon meaning there will be a dev phone at full price with no upgrade option. I think the note 2 on Verizon is already that way.

Rom- Inc Deck Gingerbread (variant of CM 7)
Kernel- Incredikernel
My main phone... my only phone...
The Rom is exact same thing I've been running for over a year now... still love it... I haven't found anything that gives as good all-around experience. I've been hoping that the few remaining kinks get worked out of the Jelly Bean ROMs for the Dinc. But I'm probably gonna be getting a new phone next month, so I might as well quit reading the threads for those ROMs (like I am today). Not that there is anything wrong with Dinc, but I'll save over $40 per month once I switch to T-Mobile. So I'll be having to settle for a new Nexus 4 when that happens. The savings in monthly bills will pay for the Nexus 4 in 9 months. By the end of 12 months... I'll be about $120 dollars ahead by retiring the Dinc, and the savings will just continue. That's just for me...my wife has already made the switch (savings X2).
The Dinc will still get used for various things... so it will be a "working reitirement" for the Dinc.
Using CM10,1(JB 4.21). Works well aside from a couple of bugs that are not show stoppers.

This was my first smartphone, and I still remember when i got it. I don't have my Dinc anymore but it was great while it lasted. I ran it all stock
I'm still using my dinc; I'm running Tiny's 10.1 with only a couple bugs besides the known videocamera stuff.
(for instance, I can't send MMS, which has something to do with the APN settings according to a thread on the Q&A forum. I'm on the verge of fixing it, I think, but am not sure yet).

Using Tiny's CM 10.1 - excellent rom.
I bought this phone refurbished on eBay and I love it! It's well built and is a perfect size. I use tinys cm10.1 build and it is just as fast as any gb build I have tried especially with ram manager and one power guard with smart assv2 governor. I highly recommend it.

I had been running the official CyanogenMod 7.2 nightlies, but when the nightly changes slowed down over the past three weeks, I decided to switch to the bleeding-edge CyanogenMod 10.1 nightlies compiled by Pons, and then picked up by tiny.
I could give up the video capture, and the still camera app bug was "fixed" by using the "Camera ICS" app. I haven't tested the MMS capabilities yet, but I end up using email so much more often than MMS anymore, I don't think I'll miss it.
My hesitation about upgrading phones is more about "not wanting to lose the unlimited data that I'm not actually using anyway". I'll probably keep the Inc around as a music and video player even after I upgrade.
I've been crack flashing like crazy lately. I want to stick with 10.1 but not being able to reliably video record my kids' silly antics keeps me switching back to GB roms. Sense, 7.2, etc. Went back to miui recently, I forgot how smooth it runs. Btw, regarding Poweramp, how do you enable track skipping via volume long-press? I must be missing something.

I am still using the DInc as my daily driver and I use Albinoman's JB rom. It has similar JB issues (video camera/camera) It does get laggy at points during the day when I have music (play store) streaming and browsing reddit over 3G on the bus. But works great otherwise. I use Google Voice for texts so I never had MMS (don't know what I am missing) and use email and G+ for picture sharing.
I have my Galaxy S3 and my coworker has an HTC Evo. Both of us have Sprint and yet his phone gets 3 bars of reception whereas mine only gets 1, 2 if I'm very, very lucky.
AFAIK, he's running stock, unrooted and I'm running rooted with latest LiquidSmooth 2.9 with the MD4 modem. No idea what modem he has.
What could be the reason why he's getting better reception? Better antenna build in the Evo?

Some of it has to do with the rom. Some aosp roms show a more accurate bar reading...which is why your's is fewer. I wouldn't really get to worked up over it. They both probably get similar reception and data speeds on 3g

I would suggest Updating PRL / Profile. Maybe even trying a different Modem. Not everyone gets great reception on MD4. You may have to experiment to see which works better for you.
If you want to properly know if your device is getting less of a signal you need to flash a TW rom, preferably one which is close to stock update prl and profile. Then check your signal and data speeds compared to your friends. AOSP roms remember are built from leaks, and ported from other devices. There is no true aosp source for the Sprint S3. So there's lots of patches and coding which goes into getting the cdma radios working.

We've actually done a Speedtest together and his had a higher data rate than mine. I've had different modem with the earlier builds of Liquid Smooth as well, but still low reception. I've also updated my PRL/Profile in the past in hopes that it'll help but sadly no.
I'll look into having a TouchWiz ROM versus this one. I just love how LiquidSmooth is, so hoping I can find a TW ROM that's just as fun.
EDIT: I don't even know how to find a TouchWiz ROM. I figured it would say "TW" along the subject line, the same way AOSP does, but alas I cannot find that. I have heard of Goodness, is that a TW ROM?

Most likely cause all the roms which do not say AOSP or CM or AOKP or something like that are TW roms. I would recommend MOAR or TPR The People's Rom.

OP,
Unless you're being very careful with your comparisons and using quantitative, and not qualitative, data like db, seeing more "signal bars" means nothing.
Sent from my buttered S3
You must also keep in mind, that even after you switch to a TW Rom. There is no guarantee that you will see better reception. IE more bars. There are quite a few variables involved. What you should concentrate on is making your device the best it can be for you. As CNexus stated. When comparing you have to compare Apples to Apples, and Oranges to Oranges.

Most battery comments are subjective in nature.
If you perceive worse battery life then try a different kernel or get a new battery.

I tried 4.3 and it was faster and with different kernel like mpokang it had good speed and battery life compared to 4.2.2. You just need to make sure you turn off wi-fi scanning even when off and something else in search or 4.3 will suck the battery down. My only complaint is my favorite ROM it's still 4.3 and the 3G to 4G tower switching doesn't work properly and as I travel allot this is a deal breaker for me as it drops calls so had to go back to 4.2.2 ROM. I heard the ROM's that are updated to 4.3.1 don't have the radio issues. This issue is also only on Verizon due to no new radio's yet from what I understand.
I've been using the Galaxy Nexus strictly on wifi for a while now. I recently updated it to 4.3, and while performance is GREAT, battery life is suffering, but I've felt no need to change anything because I'm always near a charger.
For me it's only been a bit of an improvement during regular every day use. Although If I try I can actually go almost a full day with one charge.
When i charge it peeps my phone
I was using 4.3.1 and battery seemed stellar. The radios is the big problem. It doesn't like bouncing between cells and 4G didn't seem to work.

Is that a Verizon rom? Because it's the Verizon that was only updated to 4.2.2 and has issues with 4.3+
I looked through the Verizon Dev forums but nothing as you described. If a 4.3+ rom has a fully working non-wonky cellular radio, then please link.

Yes its a Verizon ROM. I don't think any of the 4.3 ROMs had RADIO issues. The Verizon Nexus was Updated to 4.3 through asop including Binaries so there shouldn't be radio issues.
A couple people are reporting issues with 4.4 but it looks like they didn't flash new radios.
Maybe we aren't talking about the same thing? Could you link what you are talking about?
If you want me to link all the ROMs with working radios on 4.3+ that would be to many ROMs.

This is probably true. I don't have any problems in my home town but in was in another big city and I had great signal but often kept finding my phone unable to grab a data connection. I had to keep resetting to restore it. Toggling airplane mode wouldn't resolve it.
The only I could think of is I was going through a nonserviced area and dropping data and it never reconnecting.

There are some slight graphical issues and reboots but for being dropped by Google the 4.4 ROMs aren't bad. Hopefully with the new GPU Binaries from TI those issues can get fixed.
The 4.4 comment came from the fact the OP is asking about 4.3 while 4.4 is being tested. I was pointing out he's a little late to the game and to get on it!! :silly:
Feels the same to me, same crappy GNex battery life lol
But it's not worse if that's what your wondering OP
Back on 4.2.2 4.3 still had some small data issues in low signal areas. Really the only thing I want is Bluetooth from 4.3 it works right and id tags come through to my stereo. Wonder if it can be back ported.

I've had my Galaxy Nexus almost since the beginning, and I've tried a lot of roms.
You probably notice a lot of stuttering and general slowness on your Gnex. The Gnex was fine on 4.0. Something happened in 4.1, and it became slow as death. The only thing that ever seemed to fix this was doing a factory reset on your phone, wiping the data, and reinstalling your rom. People came up with varying ways to fix this slowness problem (root always required, of course), including modifying the dalvik heap growth limit and readahead sizes. Other people used a program called LagFix in the Play Store that basically was a manual TRIM, because there was a problem with certain Samsung phones where they refused to trim the filesystem.
Jelly Bean 4.3 fixed all of that. Google committed some changes to the source that built trim into Android. To put it in perspective, my random read speeds on my phone were 0.4 Mb/sec before installing 4.3. My speeds now are 1.6 Mb/sec. Sequential read/write improved by an order of magnitude.
If you're not on Android 4.3, yet, you really need to do it. Android 4.3 helped my battery life not necessarily because it inherently consumes less power, but because it dramatically improved my I/O speeds; when my phone wakes, it doesn't have to wake as long to access random pieces of storage.
On top of this, ever since I can remember, the radio switchoff between Wi-Fi, 1X, 3G, and 4G on the Verizon Galaxy Nexus has been atrocious. Ever since I got the phone, it would regularly take me 30 seconds to a minute for data to come back up as soon as the phone switched to a different wireless standard. The latest Shiny rom (10/11/13) finally was able to fix that, so my radio switches happen in less than 10 seconds, now.
Finally, I've tried random kernels, including Franco, Trinity, Lean, Tiny, Golden, and GLaDOS. All of them have affected battery life and speed marginally and in various ways (and some of them caused me a lot of reboots after a week, or so, of use), but the one that has really--actually--improved the snappiness of my phone has been the BIGMEM version of Fancy Kernel. Fancy Kernel's thread is here; I'm running on version pre44-3-big.
It was a bit frustated when waiting for major update from LG for our lovely G Pro. Although using stock rom is enough, but we need more to optimise the device.
I have been using some kitkat custom roms and decided to use one of the for day to day use. My impression so far is that I wil not go back to stock unless big problem happen to my phone (i.e. when I need to go to service center ?).
So, currently I just waiting for nightly updates or other kitkat new custom rom coming ☺
How about you, guys?

I got an update notification on my stock rooted phone this morning... Still nervous about installing it.
I like AOSP roms, but I find they favor having the latest android base over working out all of the bugs. Which in turn means extra features, but lack stability. I usually find the best Roms for a phone (AOSP or stock mod) match the android base of the stock.
Sent from my LG-E980 using Tapatalk
There are not too much options for Korean Variant F240x so unless there comes some stable custom rom had to stick with the stock.
I'm using CM 11 as it has DSP working and most custom ROMs do not.
I still wish LG would release an update for us.
The only problem I have with the ASOP and CM based roms is stability. Some have good battery life, some are feature packed, some have working navigation, some have a hard time locking or issues with sound.
I have yet to find one that just works in all aspects. That's what keeps me going back to stock. Even the G2 V5 had issues for me with signal reception (yes I flashed my modem again) and wifi transfer speeds. The only one that has it all working perfectly is the stock 4.1.2.
I wish we had more customization on that base E980 stock rom kernel tweaks and things like that, but I understand the allure of 4.4 roms versus spending dev time on an outdated build. For me though, having a phone that works consistently is more important. That's not to say there is anything wrong with the ASOP and CM roms, I just haven't found one that just works. Especially when it comes to GPS.
I see that there is the 4.2.2 update from China and I hope a Dev or 2 takes a look at that, or the new Gx that is very similar to the G Pro in hardware. Hopefully there is an option to port that to our G Pro. We'll see. For now, I still enjoy my G Pro and really have no desire to purchase anything else on the market right now.

Yep. If you are rooted and have CWM or TWRP recovery installed and you attempt to update you will get stuck in a recovery boot loop. If you are stock, non-rooted, and you install the AT&T update you will NOT be able to root - the update blocks rooting. IMHO there is nothing of value in the AT&T update. Wherever you are, stay there.

is it an auto update? I'm on slimbean 4.3. is there a thread about this to disable anything to avoid the update coming through?
I have been running the cm nightlys now for several days it has proven quite stable does a great job multitasking and running game apps. for battery life i downloaded no-frills cpu control and set the cpu to interactive. also has an option to apply on boot so when rebooting the phone it does not return to on demand. Getting 8 to 12 hrs battery life (6 with heavy gaming) and battery recharges in 2 to 4 hrs depending on which charger i use stock or aftermarket. I am very happy with cm11 at this point and been getting daily updates adding features and fixing issues. I also have run the halo harmony rom which works very well but battery life is short 4 to 6 hours heavy gaming have drained battery in 3hrs but halo interface is nice. As far as stock lg filled this thing with way to much bloat ware and even with it all disabled phone is still slower then what it is capable of being. I love they way this device runs on kit kat and will continue to run the cm nightys until they release a stable.

You should also know no matter which Kit Kat rom you are running you will need to do this from your dialer go to setting and select vibrate on call waiting. None of the roms have a working call waiting ringer yet but the vibrate function does work but must be selected manually after installing rom.
I have been plagued with the muffled in-call mic problem on any AOSP/CM based ROM. That has been the driving factor for staying on stock-based.

Thanks for this update.
I was searching high and low to see if the phone mic issue had been resolved. Many others have experienced it but nobody ever followed up.
This was the one issue that was holding this phone back (no matter what ROM). I'm told that the mic volume is useable - with a little bit of cutting in and out. Not 100% perfect yet, but useable.
Well, I already knew the device likely wasn't going to be getting an upgrade. I bought it as a temporary device. I bought a Note III last week, and am in the process of selling my G Pro.
I do miss some features from it, mostly the 5x5 home screen grid and the actually usable universal remote app built-in, but the S-Pen features outweigh them.

If you are stock, non-rooted, and you install the AT&T update you will NOT be able to root - the update blocks rooting. IMHO there is nothing of value in the AT&T update. Wherever you are, stay there.

I had to use LG FlashTools after a freegee fiasco switching from TWRP to CWM, and ended up on stock 10k. Completely stock, no custom recovery, just 4.1.2 and rooted. If you attempt to install the update already rooted WITHOUT a custom recovery it just gives some message about root detected and reboots back normally.

Well, I already knew the device likely wasn't going to be getting an upgrade. I bought it as a temporary device. I bought a Note III last week, and am in the process of selling my G Pro.
I do miss some features from it, mostly the 5x5 home screen grid and the actually usable universal remote app built-in, but the S-Pen features outweigh them.

Settle down, Beavis.
Samsung pretty much does rule the Android smartphone world, despite (or maybe because of) "10gb(wrong) of pure TW crap(also wrong)"
