I am on Stock Lollipop N900TUVUFOB6 rooted, ever since I updated to Lollipop my radio sucks, call drops, low signals, crappy WiFi. wasn't bad at all before the update.
Does anyone have or has found a better radio?

Same issue. I lost network when I enter in some building or club/caffe. ALso my phone doesnt want to connect on 4G even if its on 4G network, max is 3G download speed 11mbps.
as of 2020 the latest stock rom is of lollipop and the rom is on sammobile.com, you will need to create a free account to access everything (at least I did have to do so) the newest flashable zip is the one you want, it is supposed to have a fix for bad cell and wifi signal built in

I'm currently running BlueLightning-20140410-jflte. I just tried updating to the new modem, so my Baseband is M919UVUFNB4 (from MK2).
My kernel is 3.4.82-ChronicKernel, and I have done some minor modifications to the ROM, mostly just removing bloatware.
Up until last week, I got incredible LTE speeds, from 30-50Mbps. Now, I am getting .5Mbps to 5Mbps, maximum. The average is around 3Mbps.
Called T-Mobile and they did troubleshooting. Confirmed that I am receiving the proper signal from the towers and everything.
Beyond changing my hosts file to block ads, I have made no real changes to this ROM, my kernel, or anything beyond updating my modem.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I don't want to have to switch phone carriers just because I am no longer getting the speed that I should. Any help is greatly appreciated.

My previous modem is when the problem started. That's why I updated it in the first place.
Flash NH7 modem or try a different ROM.. If those don't work, flash back to stock and see if speeds go back to normal
I was running a paranoid android for some time and wanted to go back to the original rom so I grabbed the latest telus 4.4.2 rom off of samsung updates and the phone works fine. The only thing I notice is that before I used to have the LTE icon in the status bar and now I only have the 4G icon. Since I never got the update officially from Telus over the air, can anyone currently running 4.4.2 on a galaxy s3 inform me if they have the LTE or the 4G icon?

It's only an image, it doesn't change anything. That being said, you can test your network speed see if anything changed.

Well according to Telus:
about.telus.com/community/english/about_us/technology_%26_innovation/telus_networks/national_wireless_network
4G is maximum 21Mbps and LTE is maximum theoretical 150Mbps and acordding to the speedtest app I get 46.97 Mbps download and 7.83 Mbps upload so that means on my LTE?

Chances are that you're on LTE. Do you know if your modem changed? Cause if it didn't, you're getting the same thing you were before stock.
Also, like I mentioned, they're images, they are easily swapped/changed. Different ROMs will use different images
You can Go to settings>about phone>status. And it should tell you what network type your on, either HSPA or LTE

I haven't flashed a modem but I did flash the stock rom using ODIN, is a modem included in that package usually? Also I think this rom came with root which would mean it's not 100% stock, is there a place I can get the original telus rom?

Root was simply pushed to the stock ROM (might've been unbloated too) but if you want unrooted, get it directly from Kies or a Odin flashable version from Sammobile.com . You might have to unroot before though (using SuperSU or whichever root app you have) if you wanna do it through Kies.
As for the modem, if you flashed stock, then yes it flashed a modem. That being said, it might be the one you had on custom as well cause most custom ROMs don't change it. That being said, you can look which one (if any) was packaged with the ROM you were using and compare with the one you currently have on your phone.
Hey guys,
Over the past while, I've noticed that I no longer get any 3G/4G reception in parts of the building I work in that I used to get full coverage in and am just wondering if it could be down to something that's changed on my phone? I have changed my ROM a few times so could I have a radio or something that's not fully compatible with my network provider - I'm on EE in the UK.

Changing your ROM does not touch the radio baseband. Only manually flashing a firmware or radio; or installing an official OTA update or RUU will change the radio.
You can go back to a known good (as far as reception) ROM to make sure. But I have a feeling its not ROM related. Could just be a temporary issue with your local cell tower.
I have Lg F240-EUR version, which is running on 4.1.2.but the software/os that came with the phone is slightly different from the original firmware.And the signal is sometimes dropping like showing x mark for 3-5 times a day.and the main problem is it cant be updated to any version.I checked in the IMEI website and found that my model is f240s.If I upgrade thehpone,i will loose signal forever as some people mentioned that they lost signal after upgrading their phone through custom roms or official firmware in other forums.I want to upgrade my phone to either official 5.0 or any custom 5.0 rom. please help me in upgrading my phone so that i shouldn't loose the signal even after the update.

I bought a similar refurbished phone from Aliexpress and the system information is the same as yours. I think they just messed with the build.prop so the build information looks ready for Europe. I will advise you to install the kdz so you have the Stock ROM and firmware. That was what I did anyway. The only porblem is that you will get some Korean apps but the phone is stable anyway. And when flashing, use "CSC" not "Normal" flash.
By the way, my phone was lagging very much before I installed the Stock ROM.

I cannot reaqlly gurantee your phone being messed up but mine works perfectly after installing the kdz. I installed the 4.4.2 version although there is lollipop version as well. I just want to try the kitkat version for some time.

heyho!
the last week i nstalled the MM version for the LG G4 and flashed the required bootloader/modem/boot. After having tested the rom and being unconfident with it, i downgraded to a 5.1.1 Version and flashed again bootloader/modem/boot.
Now i got lots of Signal Dropping during the usage, cant even figure out, but i guess it has to do something with the downgraded stuff. Even tried to upgrade to MM again, but after having flashed the Bootloader modem stuff, the problem still exists. I even got only H+ in Areas where i former had LTE.
Did somebody got these problems too and can tell me how to fix it?
Hello Flooi,
for if you were able to fix? also I have your same problem and I'm going crazy.
I'm going crazy too. G4 finds networks, but no 3G networks. What can I do? I'm at Genisys Rom.
