[Solved!] - Harmon Kardon - Breaking Data with Viper Rom Issue - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the latest Viper Rom 1.5.0.
I've tried flashing hk_enable_and_adsp_update_v3.zip, But it broke data.
I've also tried flashing lyapota's mod, but it also broke data.
I've then tried flasing the hk_enable, and then lyapota's mod after reboot (one after the other as I saw was suggested) but it still broke data. Any suggestions?

In recovery wipe cache and dalvik and re-flash viper rom. See if that helps.

Hey,
That was one of the first things I tried, but I tried it again. Still no luck.
I noticed that the 4G icon changes in style. Maybe it was meant for a different phone other than Verizon? But I see that people with Verizon running Viper Rom got it to work as well so that can't be the case.
Anything with APN changes maybe?

Have a look at APN - APN type and Apn Roaming protocol - are they set to IPv4/IPv6 or just IP4?
Try setting to IPv4/IPv6

I'm also on viper rom and flashed two days ago Harman Kardon mod and everything works fine.

For whatever reason, I don't see APN Roaming Protocol.
APN Type is "default/hipri/dun/supl", I believe APN Roaming Protocol is supposed to be right under APN Type but it isn't.

Go into settings
Wireless and networks
Mobile networks
Access Point names
It should show your WAP - Mine says Vodafone Contract WAP
click on it
Scroll down until you see
APN Protocol
click on it
You should see 3 options
IPv4
IPv6
IPv4/IPv6
Click on IPv4/IPv6
At the top you will see three small horizontal dots - click on them - then click save
Test to see if you have data
If it works do the same for APN roaming protocol
EDIT - if that doesn't work I'd consider flashing your backup to get back to how it was.

Here's what I have: Attached.
I see options that are VodaFone related in the Network Preference List. But I believe those are unrelated and when I click them, they don't do anything.
Under Access Point Names, I have VZWINTERNET, as in the screen shot. And the rest are the options when I click that APN.

The two options I have are under APN type - it is either sense or your carrier that makes it different.
Can you find the APN protocol option elsewhere in settings?

I've checked and googled it. It looks like the GSM phones have that option but my CDMA/Verizon is a little more locked down.

I got it !
I had to start fresh with the files. Somewhere along the way, the files might have gotten corrupt because they weren't working like the fresh download did.
I redownloaded the files and went through the steps again. Instead of the H/K Showing up in the setting like it did the first time (And broke date the first time), it didn't show up at all.
I followed step 2 and edited the XML. In which case it still didn't show up, but data was still working.
I followed the last step and downloaded the verizon_hk_settings_fix.zip because my phone apparently uses a different settings .apk, rebooted and now all is working.
Thank you guys so much for the suggestions!

Nice one, Glad you got it sorted.
Just a note for the future (you probably already know this)
Re the music enhancements that these zips can give you - to me there is no replacement for good quality audio files and playing around with EQ settings to you get what sounds good for you (after all it is subjective_
They take up more space admittedly but lossless audio (FLAC) files are much higher quality and will do more for your ears than a piece of what is after all really tweaked EQ settings. (Which you can do yourself with the right software)

APN & Baseband
Baseband switcher will not change my baseband and also, no APN's, I've tried APN backup & restore and it will not work, also tried adding APN's manually and this rom will not save them.
Cheers

Both works fine on my mobile. Try configuring APN manually. You should enter Name and APN. Without entering the name you can't save it. TWRP link will be changed.

Ok. Three things are necessary to config APN. Name, APN, Port only these are important. Enter these values and try. I didn't modify anything related to network and configuring manually works just fine on my device

Already tried all that, I have entered all the info required for the APN settings i need and click on save but it will not save them, still comes up with no APN's. Tried baseband switcher and it does not work, also tried flashing via TWRP my baseband files still get nothing. This is the only rom i have tried that has this problem.

No I can't make calls, and no I do not have a network signal. You first screenshot is what my APN look like, nothing there, I click on new APN put in the settings then select save and it does not save, still ends up like the first screenshot with no APN's in there.
Getting very frustrating trying to fix the problem, have gone back to WIUI until a fix may be found if some one else has the same trouble.

Which version of WIUI are you using?? I tried the new GB version its full of bugs and it has the problem with baseband switcher v4.0. I guess its an issue with the baseband switcher. Try older versions. New release is under testing and bit more stable one

I'm giving up on this one, tried flashing with earlier verions of both WIUI and MIUI all I get with that is an error when installing TWRP. TWRP installs but when I try to reboot into it I get an error message, all I can do from there is reboot into stock recovery wipe data/cache then boot into BL and reflash stock sbf.
Cheers
i used JWP7 v.1.0.1 (the "stable" GB version) and it takes, LITERALLY 15 minutes to boot up. and then too its just a blank screen with nothing on it apart from the wallpaper. i can pull down the notification bar and thats it. none of the buttons work, there arent any icons either.
i rebooted to see if it makes a difference but nope. same thing. got tired witing for it to boot up and shut it down

Its because of CWM. Flash some CM9 ROM and try flashing this. It will work fine.
First of all, great work. I was afraid to try this because it installs TWRP. Does TWRP support CWM flashable zips? Or how can I go back to another rom if I want?
Coming to the rom itself, installed easily, first boot in 3 mins. Was laggy for some time, then became smooth. The rom is smooth overall except for the launcher. Swiping between screens was always a bit laggy. But I hate MIUI launcher anyway, so installed Apex Launcher and it was really smooth.
Also the default theme has some problem, i.e at many places it's white text written on a white background so that it is impossible to read. This is the only real complaint I have. There have been some random FCs and 1 hotboot, but overall, good work

Thanks for trying. Theme is under development so it has that issue. Yes TWRP recovery is similar to CWM. It is better than CWM. You can flash anything like in CWM
Been some more hours trying your rom. There are occasional hotboots. But apart from that when I try to view a contact from the dialer screen(using t9 search), I get FC(contacts and dialer has stopped working). Also the music player stops playing after 1 or 2 seconds when connected to headset. The latter bug I've seen in Wajk too.

Try JIUI 2.6.15 it is stable. I tried a different combination of ROM's so its having few issues. JIUI 2.6.15 has more features that are not in the new version.

[Q] No Mobile Data at all? -- 4.4.3 Shiny

I really, really hope this hasn't been asked before and I apologize in advance...
I have a GNex (MAGURO)
and today I CLEAN flashed 4.4.3 Shiny Rom and flashed the region appropriate maguro radio as well.
After booting up and all the setting up was done, I was not able to connect to my mobile data at all. Wifi works excellent but as soon
as I turn on my Mobile Data, I get absolutely no connection whatsoever. I've rebooted several times and nothing has changed.
I've never experienced a complete data drop like this on all the other roms i have flashed for previous builds.
HELP is needed ASAP because i rely heavily on my Mobile Data and my phone is basically useless without it.
Thanks
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but are you sure you flashed the shiny rom for maguro? This sounds like exactly what would happen if you flashed Toro instead.

this is the thread i got the rom from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...m-6-4-14-shiny-rom-ota-stock-android-t2642375
and im 100% sure its maguro
Hmmm. I was hoping for an easy solution..... If it were me and I had a backup where data worked, I'd go back to that and see if it still works. Then maybe try a different 4.4.3 rom like cyanogenmod or paranoid to see if it's other roms that also have this problem. After all that, if you still want shiny, try deleting your file and download it again. Hope this helps! Good luck. Let me know if it works out.

just to make things clear, Galaxy Nexus (GSM) is maguro...right?
I was hoping for an easy one too lol..
I actually have a backup already and the data works perfectly on it (AOKP 4.2.2)
I've flashed Shiny 4.4.3 before today and had the same problem. I posted this same question on the thread that i got the download from (rootzwiki)
but got no response so i just reverted back to my AOKP 4.4.2 backup. I really want 4.4.3 so thats why I came back to Shiny.
i will definitely look into other 4.4.3 roms and retry downloading the Shiny file. I will let you know if things work out.
Thanks for your help
UPDATE...
I have flashed LiquidSmooth 4.4.3 and it has sat in my phone for over 12 hours and the data works normal again...
Although the data works, im not too keen on some of the features included like the boot animation, fonts and the liquid blue themed icons.
yes i understand its because its THEIR rom and they can put what they want. But, my original goal was to get a 4.4.3 rom as close to stock as possible while awaiting AOKP's 4.4.3 rom release (because im very familiar with aokp roms) and it's the only alternative i have for a 4.4.3 rom with working data. so i guess im going to have to make do with what i have and wait.
thanks to whoever helped
HOWEVER
i am still open to suggestions on how to get 4.4.3 Shiny Rom working on my Gnex

Why did you flash a new baseband? Not a necessary step...so in the end you did have the same radio before and after flashing ShinyRom?
You need to change your APN from IPv4/IPv6 to just IPv4.
Settings -> More... -> Mobile networks -> Access Point Names -> Internet -> APN protocol: Switch from IPv4/IPv6 to just IPv4 option.

I didn't think it was a necessary step but the reason why i flashed a new baseband was because i thought my previous baseband was outdated(?) for some reason that i cannot explain.
and yes, in the end, i had the same radio before and after flashing ShinyRom (radio: UGLH1)
_____________________
i dont know much about radios due to the fact that i ran AOKP for numerous builds and never had a problem with my mobile data before, and so going into ShinyRom and having problems with my data, i was not exactly sure what i was doing "trying" to fix the problem.

[Q] AT&T GS3 No data connection, APN's wont save. Nothing works.

I posted this a while ago so i will just copy paste that post and add on some after.
"I have a AT&T GS3 running Packman Rom, one day i was updating my rom, data was working fine and after i flashed the update i had no data connection, so i restored from a back up before the rom update and same thing no data, so i restored my phone with ODIN using the default ROM, still no data. So i restored from the backup again and found out i had no APN's in the APN settings area. So i tried restoring defaults, nothing happens it says "defaults restored" or something along those lines and nothing shows up, when i try setting my own APN with the right stuff and i save still nothing there. Any ideas on how to fix? I have downloaded some apps to manage the APN's but they don't work on android 4.0 +."
I found a work around for apn back and restore and managed to get it working, but it didn't help. I have tried pretty much everything, i made a video this time to help show what is going on. Also my IMEI is fine.
Update: I forgot to mention i got LTE working some how just fiddling around, but cant remember how.

Have the exact same issue. Remote reset via FIDO (Canada) fixed this issue but its back again with a vengeance and have run out of all ideas. Began after flashing firward to 4.4.4 although I see similar issues from 4.4 onwards for others.
1. APNs dont get stored. Adding and saving does nothing. I can still see all the essential APNs in the xml file...rebooting or resetting somehow still doesnt get it read
2. Unknown phone number- phone doesnt register.
In conclusion, wifi, calls work fine. MMS and data do NOT.
Help! >.<
ok, not a solution but after you get this figured out and working again....you can download terminal emulator from playstore. type su (hit enter) it will ask for SU permission. grant it. type...
reboot nvbackup (hit enter) it will go black screen and you'll see small blue letters in upper left corner and phone will reboot. this will save all that data.
sorry dont have a fix which you obviously need. but will ask/search around.
good luck

Read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...-0-1-allianceromn910t-18-themes-huge-t3085560 to get an idea of the features of this ROM. Give lacoursiere18 and hsbadr a thanks and donate to them for making this great ROM and kernel.
Follow these steps one after the other and don't stop**
1. Make sure you are on a stock OAF Lollipop ROM using Multisystem #1 kernel, I think I used Rick's OAF Lollipop ROM. I am on BOG modem so I'm pretty sure any Lollipop modem will work with this.
2. Make copies on your SD card of:
- system/buildprop.xml & cscversion.txt
- system system/etc/apns-config.xml
- system/etc/permissions/verizon_net_sip_library.xml & vzwapnlib.xml
- system/lib/libril.so & libsec-ril.so
- system/apps/VzwActivationAgent & vzwapnpermission folders
- system/framework/VZWAPNLib.apk
- system/privapp/VZWAPNService & secmms_candy folders
- system/csc folder
Reboot
4. Reboot into recovery and make a TWRP backup of everything
5. While in recovery dirty flash Alliance ROM BETA on top of stock lollipop ROM OAF that is using Multisystem #1 kernel (Wipe everything except data, and SD of course.)
6. Delete system/privapp/diagmonagent.apk and system/lib/libdiagmonagent.so because at startup it was sending some kind of diagnostics and thought it was messing with the data drop. Ever since these changes and a reboot data has been stable!
Reboot
7. Download root browser and swap those copied files in the appropriate file location. Change them to the correct permissions (the folders get 0755 and the files 0644, compare with other files and folders that are in place already. Make sure you change the permissions on all folders copied over and their contents). **Longest Step**
Reboot
8. Edit feature.xml in the system/csc folder and add:
<CscFeature_RIL_ForceConnectMMS>true
</CscFeature_RIL_ForceConnectMMS>
Above these tags on the bottom :
</FeatureSet>
</SamsungMobileFeature>
This enables auto download mms when data is toggled off !
Reboot
9. Make an backup in TWRP and you have your own custom ROM
I'm pretty sure this ROM is not compatible with xposed but it is very customizable, smooth, and it comes with a lot of features built in.
**READ ME**
Bugs:
- Silent mode is only available using the toggle. Volume down only goes to vibrate.
**
- Battery section in settings is missing
- No way to remove battery percentage in status bar
(Workaround: Download "Battery Usage Shortcut" from the Playstore to access the battery section and to remove battery percentage)
**
- No way to uninstall 3mint battery mod without messing the systemui up
- Now that the mobile network settings are correct the advanced calling option is avaliable but it force closes and messes up your data connection. A reflash of everything will be needed so don't click on it! (I have a feeling a Verizon app is missing but not going crazy about this)
Any suggestions or thoughts about these current bugs would be helpful.
I cannot guarantee all Alliance settings will work but most of them do, it's awesome.
This manual port is now stable ! All basic phone functions work. Let me know if you come across any bugs or issues not related to Alliance settings. I will try to help fix it.
Thanks Stedrocklp for taking the time to try and get this working. Jal3223 thanks for sharing that key porting info!!! Wouldn't be possible without your help! Thanks hsbadr for developing Multisystem kernel ! Thanks lacoursiere18 for creating this ROM !
I did the same thing with similar results. Unfortunately I don't have the knowledge needed to get it functioning on the VZW N4. I still faithfully run alliance on my N3 and am dying to have it on my N4. Maybe we should try to get one of our great devs to hook us up.

I hear you man I came from the Note 2 with Alliance. That would be nice hopefully one sees this thread. So I should be a little more descriptive with the process of getting it stable with just mms and sms failing. I am sure coming from any LP ROM without xposed preloaded will work. I dirty flashed from Ricks ROM and get a Play Services error and it keeps popping up. I went into the app info of Google settings app, clicked manage storage, and wiped all data and then cache. After that it seems stable. I also edited the build.prop using build prop editor and changed all the tmo entries with vzw, saved, and rebooted and got the Verizon data icon signals. The mms and sms issue I believe has something to do with APNS but idk how that works. There is no way to edit the APNs in the mobile network settings by the way. I'm dying to get this to work too lol
I actually went in and put in the Verizon apns in the apns-conf.xml and I still couldn't get sms to work. What's funny is that I did get MMS to work so when I sent a message to anyone, I would send a pic too. My friends and family were like why do you keep sending nonsense photos LOL. Would it be something with the kernel/boot.img you think?

What values do you replace in the apns-conf.xml ? Yeah it's probably the boot.img how do we replace that? I tried doing this in the past but couldn't find our boot.img in a ROM. And every time I zipped the ROM back it never flashes always an error. I think it needs to be signed but idk how to do that. We're almost there !
I am going to try to swap the APN's and the boot IMG from a working Verizon rom and see what happens. I got so close to having it work I just couldn't get sms to work no matter what edits or adjustments I made. Having the MMS work meant that there was hope there must just be something I am missing. Let me do some tinkering and see if I can come up with something functional. If there is a will there is a way. Right?

What you taking about you don't know how to do this stuff lol. Yeah man there has got to be a way. We basically ported it lmao. Let me know what happens !
Maybe we should replace these files too? And what do you think this sentence means? That could be the problem, maybe? Lol
So far I have swapped the APNs and have copied the verizon specific apps that you mentioned. I am currently at the alliance boot animation but ? takes so long to load on the first boot I can't tell if it's stuck or I am impatient.

That's the worst wait ever lol
Well I have two failed attempts using the inernational version. Now I am going to try on the T-Mobile version with the same edits. I am going to get this going one way or the other.

I have my fingers crossed ! Did you do anything with the boot.img?
Yes I am using the boot.img from morom and it does get to the boot animation so we should be headed in the right direction.

Well I am getting closer to success. I got it to boot all the way though and go through the setup process. One problem; No Service! For some reason I am getting no service at all so I will have to recheck that all the Verizon BS is in place and working. Geesh Verizon sure does make this more difficult than it needs to be. Moving in the right direction though!

That's great that you got it to boot. Even though this may seem tedious, maybe try doing one verizon specific app by one? And maybe try replacing the T-Mobile mms-candy with the verizon one. I forgot lacoursiere18 recommended that when I was trying to make it work in the past. I tried doing it while I had Alliance installed and it messed up the app. The emoji kinda like this one was in place of the send button. It was actually pretty funny that that happens but idk maybe having it pre-installed will have better results? He also said something about the libs but I guess we should try one change at a time lol
I read the permissions of this application and it seems to deal with sending and receiving text messages and mms. Maybe this is the piece that was missing after editing the apns?
The T-mobile variant has two. Bin files the I removed thinking the we wanted to use the verizon modem but maybe they need to be there so I just added them back. I added the activation agent and all other verizon apps and libs. I couldn't find a lib file for mms_candy but I did swap them. Did you edit anything when you flashed or did you just flash as-is?

So far I only flashed as is. What values did you change on the apn config to get mms working? I completely swapped it with the Verizon one but that didn't work.
Got mms to work using GoSms and manually configuring the APN the msmc whatever to http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms
And the mms port to 80.
Now if we can only get sms to send we have a fully functioning alliance ROM on Verizon !

[Q] APNs not visible with Cyanogenmod 12.1

When I navigate to the APN settings, no APNs are visible.
The following message displays:
Access Point Name settings are not available for this user.
Question: What type of user do I need to activate so I can see the APN settings?
(Or is this the wrong question to be asking? Need to see APN settings.)
My hardware, software and network:
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S III (Sprint) - SPH-L710
Software: cm-12.1-20150619-NIGHTLY-d2spr.zip
Network: Ting (Sprint)

I am having this same exact issue! I been looking all over Google and XDA the last week or two without any luck.
Most sources say install APN Backup and Restore app, but it still doesn't work. It gives some other permission error. Then when using /system/mover app to move APN Backup and Restore to system, it fails and gives some other error in turn breaking the app, which then has to be reinstalled to be back in the same situation as before.
Some say install a flashable APN fix, if you are lucky to find one for your carrier. I am using this Sprint S3 flashed to Pageplus, and I can not find a Pageplus or Verizon APN file to flash anywhere. Perhaps you will get lucky and find one Ting? or a custom rom with a Ting variant? I have not seen any of these yet, but not sure if they exist somewhere. If not I think we are screwed? There has to be a way...
I have experienced this on all 5.x and some 4.4.x roms for this device, and I have not found a solution anywhere yet. I highly believe it is related to this: link If anyone is able to shed some light on this issue (or the solution) would be greatly appreciated.

I don't see the system folder or the file you mention (system>etc>apn-config.xml) Saafir.
I have created two APNs needed for Ting, but I need to remove any APNs that may cause any problems. Right now I don't see any APNs, even tho I have created and saved two APNs (which helped bring data to my phone).
So back to my original question, what type of user do I need to activate so I can see the APN settings? Thanks for your time and help.

The settings are only there if you already have apn installed. That setting doesn't allow you to create apn there, it only allows you to choose between installed APNs. If you have none, then it will say unavailable for this user.

I have them listed in system>etc>apn-config.xml, but it still not viewable in the APN section of settings. MMS definitely isnt working and mobile data isnt always working. Im using the 0714 nightly for on my Sprint GS3 that im using with boost.

You have to flash the boost apn fix.

I thought someone said it wasn't required. I have flashed the universal boost fix r2 that I used with the nightly from about 2 months ago. Doesn't make a. Difference. Even re flashed it. I'm assuming that's e only way that setting xml got there in the first place. Is there another fix that I'm unaware of?

Full wipe, flash rom, gapps and boost apn fix. Boot up fully once, then back to recovery and flash rom and gapps again (no wipe, no apn fix this time).
