Phone is dropping signal every minute or so since the 4.0.4 update

Guys, I'm really frustrated right now. Since the update my phone has been like this:
I've already tried 3 basebands and none of them seemed to fix the problem. Any idea what the problem might be?

I have a strong signal where I am, so I don't believe it's the radio on the new firmware.
However, maybe try a reflash of the firmware or a factory reset?
Beyond that, maybe there was some sort of service glitch/outage with your actual provider?

I've been on the Cdma 4.0.4 leak for a few months. Here is what my signal looks like... GSM may looks different, but you can try to get a better picture using Real Signal.
Yes, it's my app, but I'm not trying to advertise, just trying to offer a useful tool. (=

JB modem/network issues

Not sure id this is due to sprints network or the modem but since i flashed jb seems im having difficulties with service. Made several calls to other sprint customers and get one ring and busy signal happens prolly 5-6x in last two weeks to several numbers ive called. Ive also found that 3g doesnt always seem to connect. I called sprint who said a tower was getting worked on in my area but wondering if rooted is causing some modem issues.
Anyone else experience this?

Probably a tower issue. When they work on towers a lot of strange things can happen to service. Ad your phone is forced to try to go to another tower, which is probably over loaded due to the down tower.
But you can always flash a new modem/baseband and see what happens.

High pings

Is anyone else experiencing high pings? I'm running all star ROM v7 on T-Mobile. I haven't done anything to my phone this week and suddenly my pings have spiked.
I've tried switching radios but it didn't do anything.

WOW, they are high! If all is working well I would not worry to much about it.

+1 I sometimes get high pings but your speed does not look affected of you ask me lol your good maybe try a different radio if all is different maybe that radio doesn't like that ROM...if not go back to that one

I think I solved the problem by changing my APN... Problem is I can't receive or send MMS now.
BTW the download speed is deceiving because the high ping makes browsing impossible lol

GPS not working

Hi
I have bought three sprint lg g2 ls980 and i am not able to get gps signal to lock on any of my phones.
I have unlocked them using the method mentioned here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2655133
2 of them are on stock 4.2 rom and 1 is on optimusg3.
This is what I get when I run the GPS test app

So the GPS is able to detect the satellites but not able to lock on any.
Please help me out

If you want GPS you basically have two options: get a GPS unit or get a different phone. Due to hardware problems getting GPS to work on the G2 is next to impossible. My daughter and I have G2s and GPS doesn't work on either one. I sent mine back to LG for repair, they said they fixed the GPS antenna, and now I have even worse GPS reception than before I sent it to them. It's a problem with the antenna connections in the phone and the only thing you can do is keep getting it repaired until they get it right. There is no software fix.

With this update, I am able to turn on my hot spot.
Can someone else confirm this?
I am not rooted.
Thanks.

Just curious, had you done the hot spot hack? Does it tell you to subscribe to the hot spot? And what I'm really curious to know, does everything work and work well on PJ1? There are a couple of people reporting data isn't reliable and calls drop. See here.

I am dead stock. I haven't done any hacking whatsoever. So far, everything works well. The phone was updated yesterday and I bought a new battery for it. That's it.
