Did you flash a touchwiz rom get a lock and come back to DU? It's been a common problem with non TW roms and that's how I've always fixed it.
Ill give that a try. Thanks!

I am using the new Oxygen JB 4.2.2 rom based on CM10.1 My problem is that I can't get GPS working. Any suggestions as to what I can do to fix that. Also will flashing the matching RIL for the RADIO I am using is that recommended on a CM 10.1 rom or not? Will it do any harm if I do flash the matching RIL?

Infamous is not ported. If its based on another carriers firmware, aka a ported ROM, Wi-Fi calling will not work and you can't just push the apk and make it work. It needs to be a ROM based on official T-Mobile firmware

Hello,
Is there any kit kat touchwiz ROM available which is somewhat stable? I would like to be able to use tap n pay. I have a Verizon NOte 2 with such a ROM and it works great. I am upset that it is so hard to find a ROM for the tmobile phone.
I guess Tmobile never released kitkat for this phone?
Lol .. :sly:
Use S.W.A.R.M (Stock) or Test Rom 1.2 (it has some S5 apps - does not have wifi calling) follow all instructions for installing.
Sorry SWARM isnt KitKat. Rom of Thrones is - which is the base for my Test Rom 1.2 - Good Luck.

Thanks,
I did try test ROm and my wifi wasn't working. I now know that its because I needed to update my baseband .. Which I have now done. SO ill give one of those a try.
I also understand that we can load AT&T roms on this phone as long as we are using the T889 Radio,,, so I am looking at those roms as well

Yes. You can also try AGNi Kernel if Wifi still isnt working. From my experience 4.3.0 is the best so far.

I had to flash the wifi fix. Im not sure if flashing a kernel would have fixed my wifi problem. As I understand; the issue is that my phone has the original bootloader that it was shipped with. it doesnt have the 4.3 OTA bootloader therfore I had to install this wifi fix.
SO now I have a Tmobile T889 running an ATT touchwiz rom... I have working LTE(LTE worked with Tmobile roms too). To get the LTE to work I had t flash the latest tmobile radio. My Google wallet tap n pay works again. I am extremely happy about this setup!
Oh... and I am using AT&T go as the service... not Tmobile

Yes flashing a kernel would have fixed the wifi. Flashing the patch wouldve probably made things worse to be honest..now the only way to revert the patch is to odin back to the original firmware...
Im on 4.1.2 Bootloader myself. Havent upgraded to anything above that..i only flash kernels and the modems. Works fine for me. Only issue is the charging while phone is off doesnt work.
Which Rom did you use?
ISSUE: Rotation not locking in Landscape mode
My device was rooted and I tried whatever Lollipop 5.1 ROMs are available even with different Kernels. Still I wasn't able to fix the rotation not locking in Landscape mode. I asked many people for help but sadly nothing helped. Everybody said this is a model specific issue. Now finally I'm back in the stock ROM [Android version: 4.4.2/NO ROOT/STOCK RECOVERY]. I don’t know what affected that issue, Bootloader? Kernel? But I deliberately want to stay on the stock 5.1 experience.
Somebody please look into this issue.
Thanks
Have you tried Stock 5.0.2?
And it COULD be an app preventing the tablet from staying in landscape mode. Did you install anything when trying the 5.1 custom roms?
And just to be sure: With Stock KitKat everything works as it should?

I was using actually Candy5 earlier version which was based on the 5.0.2. But when 5.1 is available who wants to go back ;P
Apps are not causing this issue because I tried flashing just the CM12.1 even without gapps, this issue persists. I doubt this is related to modem.img since it's a device specific issue.
Any ideas to fix this?
It would be interesting to test if the issue persists with stock 5.0.2 on your tablet. If it is, it could be a hardware defect. Maybe the gyroscope is faulty.

For your information I was using this ROM(aosp_v500-ota-eng.adrianomartins_5.1.1_r1_20150422) for a while and the rotation was perfect even from the first boot itself. But I was not satisfied with the battery life of this ROM. So I decided to try any other 5.1 ROMS like CM12 or Candy5. But they all have this issue. So not a hardware issue confirmed.

So it seems to be a problem with CM based roms (as Candy 5). I'm out now...
Hey! I have the same issue on CM 12.1. I would LOVE a fix for his because I use landscape rotation lock a lot. The only help I can give is I noticed it started on 5.1. On 5.0, it was fine.

I have reported this issue in many threads they all either ignore this issue or fail in solving this.
Yeah it's an annoyance but not one big enough to sway me from CM. I really need it fixed though.
Hey guys. So, I am a little frustrated with the ROMs available. I am hoping that you guys can help me. Right now I am on Emotion ROM. Great ROM. Love the way the UI looks. But I have been having too many problems and at this point I am ready to just flash the most basic ROM out there. I love customization as anyone does. But I also like stability. What would you guys suggest I flash? Customization and stability is important. But like I said worst case scenario I will flash the most basic stable rom if I have too. Suggestions?
MOAR is very customizable and very stable. But you have to follow the directions in the 1st post precisely otherwise you'll run into issues.
I heard that MOAR was being updated as well.
I had MOAR 2.1b , now running Dr.ketan's S7 rom. Major improvement. My note 4 has never been this fast/stable.not a single FC or crash.everything works.battery life has never been better.MM is something else in terms of fluidity.would highly recommend Dr.ketan's S7 rom.

I think I'll wait for that ROM to get a little more popular. Would it matter if I downloaded a stock rom with a bad ass kernel?
I believe you can use his kernel on stock ROMS
I was never able to get text messages working even with APN fix.... Sux BC it's an awesome ROM.

If you're talking about dr. Ketans rom. I had no issues with the texting incoming or outgoing. I belive i was prompted to install a mandatory patch for the rom soon after it booted up the first time. Mabye that fixed it? Or mabye i just didnt face the problem because im using it on a GSM network.

You should give it another try
Right now I am on just a stock rom. Makes me happy because everything is working with no problems. I have a FitBit so bluetooth is very important to me. Can someone recommend a kernel for stock rom or a stable rom that works with Bluetooth.
