For all those with WiFi data issues with 2.3.3

I have just spent an absolute age with HTC tech support, and the answer to the few that have been suffering with no data via wifi is................send your handset in for repair.
I honestly have completely lost the will to live, no matter what i say to try and convince them the issue is software related as i can use 2.2.1 absolutely fine, it seems to completely be over everyones head, i even spoke to a manager, who after listening to everything i said, who then spent 3 minutes in silence came back with "broken wifi module"
Arghh, they now want to book my handset in for repair, which i am reluctant to do as they quote a turn around of 20 days currently, i dont want to be without a handset that long.
all i want is gingerbread on my handset and be able to use WiFi, 3G works perfectly
Has anyone had any luck in solving this? its not a router issue, i have tried 4 different routers, its not a signal issue (i have a full signal, and its not dropping the signal), i have tried every 2.3.3 custom rom and stock rom out there and still no data Via WiFi, tried different radio's, and different kernels,
If i go back to using the Android revolution 2.3.2 beta, it works fine, so its defo since the 2.3.3 update.
any help from anyone would be so gratefully recieved i will buy you a pint!

Hi there,
Have you flashed the matching RIL's for your radios? A similar issue affected me but it was only with CM7 and ARHD. I flashed the radio in my signature (good WiFi performance for signal and battery life) and the corresponding RIL and all was working after a couple of reboots.
Hope this helps.

i have indeed pal, really really struggling with this.
A work colleague has just completed his OTA update at work, same issue,
at least i know its not just mine
im wondering if its something to do with the wifi driver in the ota,
Actually its not just the ota, tried the RUU just now, same issue
any Dev's got any clues?

Mate,
I´ve downgraded the ROM as per this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003), and now it is working perfectly. No need of gingerbread, I noticed that I do not need it anyway. Instead of that, my baby is alive and kicking againg.
Cheers.

im back on LeeDroid 2.2.1 custom rom and everything works like a charm, there isnt anything on gingerbread i need, but i want the option, i prefare the menu, but i can not be without WiFi. I have just sent HTC a humerous letter/email, i have spent hours on the phone with them today.
Sent LeeDroid a pm, see if he has any idea why this is, or if there is anyway to sort it
hopefully someone soon can come up with something, there are only a few of us with the problems, but even so HTC should release a patch or something to rectify it. A guy who has a T-Mobile branded device at work has updated fine, but myself and another colleague (both unlocked sim free devices from the carphonewarehouse) have the no data issue via wifi
i am losing the will to live

[Q] HTC One M8 LTE Connectivity Issues

Let me start off first by saying that I am S-Off through Sunshine.
I have an AT&T branded HTC One M8, which I recently converted the the Developer's Edition M8 by changing the CID and flashing the DE Recovery and Nandroid Backup.
I did this for two reasons: Tired of waiting on AT&T to release updates (Was still on 4.4.2 when I converted), and to get rid of bloatware while also having the ability to get OTAs.
Now my issue at the moment, which seemed to arise(although cant say for sure it was because of this) when I updated to DE 4.4.4. As far as I can tell right now, two apps - Snapchat, and Google Play, will not connect or send or receive data when LTE is active. Chrome, Instagram and a few other apps have no problem loading and sending and receiving data. If I go into Mobile Data settings, and switch from "GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto" to "GSM/WCMDA auto" everything will work fine. So the problem is solely with LTE. If any other information needs to be provided to troubleshoot feel free to ask.
Also, this happens with full bars, and with the LTE up and down arrows lighting up.

If you figure this out please let me know. I am experiencing the same issue. I called At&t and they were at a loss too. My browser works fine. My reddit app, my bank's app, and just about everything else doesn't work at all. And, the issue is only on LTE. So, we have the exact same problem. I really would appreciate help on this. I use my phone to find houses on emergency calls. If I don't have internet it makes it difficult.
The crazy part is the LTE works. I just doesn't work with apps.

How to Enable Wi-Fi Calling on the LG G3 on Candy5 Android 5.1.1 ROM

Hello, I would like to preface this post by saying I'm a complete noob to XDA Forums and custom ROMs as well. I've know about XDA Developers for years, just never been much of a tinkerer when it comes to Android, I just prefer stock.
Well recently, I bought a used LG G3 because the deal was just to good to pass up. It was my first time using a ROM other than stock and it was utterly disgusting in comparison. I hated it so much I installed my first ROM ever, and it was Candy5 for I heard CynogenMod stopped supporting the LG G3 is some capacity. Well, I've been using it for a while now and made it look as close as I could to stock, there's just one problem.
I recently enabled Wi-Fi calling on Ting. The device was a Verizon model, but I purchased it unlocked, and activated it on the MNVO Ting. Well, it wasn't working so I was wondering what's up. I read that you had to enable it within the devices settings, but all guides were not specific to the custom ROM I had installed, and even following along as closely as I could, the option for Wi-Fi calling wasn't there. I've read that if Wi-Fi calling doesn't appear, your device doesn't support it. But, everywhere I've read, has been consistent that Wi-Fi calling is supported on the LG G3.
So, I ask you long time tinkerers, do you know how to enable Wi-Fi calling within the Candy5 ROM? Does it just not support it? I even used the neat search feature within the settings app and couldn't find a switch for it. Please help!

Yeah WiFi calling won't be an option on AOSP ROMs... Its cooked into the stock software (for at least t mobile) and only works on stock based ROMs. There was a developer that tried to use the code from I BELIEVE the nexus 6 and adopt it to our devices but it never got pushed through. If you want WiFi calling/VolTE, stick with stock ROMs.

Ah, I see. Hopefully some day it would be available on custom ROMs. Using the stock ROM is not even worth the gloriousness of Wi-Fi calling, and that's really saying something, because my room is a complete dead zone for reception. I have to walk out on my porch every time I want to place / receive phones calls or SMS texts.

Yeah I completely feel your problem. Over at my house (which is in the maybe 10 minutes from the main bay area) there is NO reception, only when you walk down the street is there reception. When I was on Verizon I got their WiFi booster thing... Now that I'm on T mob, I use WiFi calling bakdd info their ROMS

Marshmallow firmware ?

Anyone seen the firmware for the M9 that supports Marshmallow ? It's definitely out there as some users are running Marshmallow ROMs....
Any leaks ? Any news on official release ?

Is this what you are looking for?
http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m9/news/

No, that's not for Verizon plus it's a full ROM/RUU.

Yeah, I have been wondering the same thing. I figured something would have got leaked by now. Or at least some info...

The Marshmallow ROM for Verizon's M9 is still in the testing stages. Based upon my current build, I'd guess late testing stages, but don't quote me.

Oops! Sorry...

I believe Marshmallow firmware is only out for the dev / WWE devices.
VZW will most likely be the last variant to the update to MM, so don't hold your breath waiting on it.
FYI - I'm running the latest Candy6 (an AOSP-based Marshmallow ROM) on the most recent VZW firmware and it is running flawlessly. I actually thought I was enjoying sense until i went back to AOSP!

Is there a thread for that here at XDA, in the VZW section ? I've used CM-based ROMs for years but the only one I've seen for the M9 didn't have VZW support (yet).

The Venom team, and a few others, do have a test build for Verizon from HTC. However sharing this build would mean violating an agreement between said testers and HTC/Verizon. This, in turn, would mean no more early test builds would be released to them. This is not what any of us want.
You, and I, have Verizon M9's. We understand our devices are not the same as International/Developer... and thus we wait, patiently. Our turn will come.

Yep there's an XDA thread, but it's over in the general M9 section, here ya go: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/development/rom-t3265048
The thread title still states it's CM based, but they recently rebased on AOSP for Marshmallow. Most recent build is labeled as an alpha, but it's working great for me.

So to confirm, Verizon is actually testing a marshmallow build?

Of course. Have been for a while. No release date though.

I'm working my way through that thread. When it was first started, it appeared that there were a few critical things not working properly, like non-system apps being unable to read the external SD card. When they switched to AOSP, it seemed to improve things, but it's still not clear from that thread.
So..... since you're using it and also on Verizon, what doesn't work ? I've seen people release ROMs with non-working cameras, can't make phone calls, and other crazy s**t. I'm all for helping if I can, but I still need a functioning phone !!
I've got the ROM zip and GAPPS downloaded on my phone ready to go....

Honestly everything is working great for me on the build from 01-08, nothing is broken that i can tell. Data, wi-fi, gps, bluetooth, camera, flashlight, SD card, calls, texts, all are good to go. I haven't tested IR blaster as I don't use it for anything. And you will not have advanced calling/VoLTE available as far as I'm aware. But all good otherwise. :good:
I did see another VZW user reporting some issues on the same build like not getting a GPS lock, and their network incorrectly showing as Sprint and losing service whenever they drop to 3g or 1x coverage. But I have not had any GPS issues myself, and can't speak to the coverage issue as I live and work in an area with pretty solid LTE coverage and have had no problems.

I saw the one report of a GPS issue but multiple people saying they have no problem, so I brush off that "issue". I do have advanced calling enabled but no one I call does, so it doesn't matter. If I'm not mistaken, both ends need it enabled (?). Either way, it won't stop me.

I never had a gps lock when I went from sense to aosp. That was my problem. Switching from LTE to 3g and 1x because of fringe coverage , and having it read sprint pcs was just odd. Other than that, it's a great rom

No problem with GPS here. I just tried it for the first time with Google Maps and it showed my location spot-on. I also tried GPS Status and got a fix on 15/20 satellites (inside).

locks super quick too. Once i went and flashed a sense rom, got my lock, then went back to aosp, all was good. Do me a favor, download 4g switcher from the play store (its got a red power button logo). Since your in good 4g coverage. in this app, goto the dropdown menu that lists the radio bands (CDMA/EVDO/GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto is set by default) select CDMA auto (PRL) (this will force you into 3g mode). Then see if you see either 3107 or sprint PCS as your coverage. Then try to browse to a webpage or something on the 3g, i couldnt get data to work in that mode whatsoever. Then at least ill know if im sane. Thank you

Don't need an app for that - just dial "*#*#4636#*#*"
It shows "Sprint PCS" when I switch to 3G mode. I'm not going to chance any data roaming charges though... Sorry
Did you toggle Settings, Cellular Networks, Data roaming to 'on' ? It's off by default. That could be why you couldn't browse on 3G.

Activate advanced calling

HTC 10 - rooted, etc. running ViperRom 10 4.4 - Verizon network
I've searched the ViperRom 10 forum, and I can't post there, so hopefully someone here will know the answer.
I would like to activate Wifi calling, but when I click on "Activate Advanced Calling", nothing happens and it says "Upgrade service to HD Voice and Video Calling". Do I have to call Verizon to activate something on there end? Everything I've read it seems like that isn't the case and I should be able to activate advanced calling and wifi calling from my phone.
Also, as a side note, but possibly related, I'm sure that when I installed the latest rom, that I clicked "Verizon" during the setup process, but my phone network usually reads "Sprint PCS". I noticed that someone else on the Viper10 forum had the same problem, but I didn't see anyone come up with a solution.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

You have to activate your advanced features on a official bone stock rom first, wifi calling/video is still broken though on viper 4.4. but I'm getting HD voice and LTE during calls.
We have to wait for Verizon to release Android N update then flash the magisk version of the ROM instead of 4.4 full ROM.
The network thing is just a display issue due to not using Verizon's base. Nothing can be done as far as I know until again... the official update.
