Help me fix my pixel and it's wifi? - Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers

So I formatted both slots in TWRP one time and rebooted into bootloader and proceeded to flash all.bat my nmf26U which I believe is the latest Verizon rendition or am I wrong? Well after that boots then I proceed to wipe n flash pure Nexus ROM and my problem is everything is flawless except the wifi the wifi works good for like a minute but then the performance drops significantly. Now I'm not sure if the baseband is wrong or I need to update radio or I'm going about it all wrong flashing updated radios and basebands with pure Nexus. Isn't it the same thing if I flash all.bat nmf26u then just wipe and flash the ROM doesn't that give me updated radios? Some insight would really be appreciated as I have no idea how this pixel works exactly. How can I make a good starting point again for reflashing, flash nmf26q to both slots? Then take it from there? Sorry for the wall of text

This would probably be posted in the ROM thread. Beans would be able to give you more info for sure.

NMF26V is the Verizon vendor image. If you flashed the other that's probably why your radios aren't working. You also didn't need to flash the factory image to update everything but since you flashed the wrong one you should probably get the correct factory image and make sure you flash it just in case.

OK so right now I flashed nmf26q I didn't download the v one because it says Europe on it and on Verizon's website it says nmf26u is the latest update...

Attached screenshot...V is the latest for Verizon?

Also what all do I exactly need to update since I'm running pure nexus right now and how do I go about just flashing only what I need

Pure Nexus uses the V vendor.

I don't know how much it matters but I'm running the v image right now on Verizon and everything is fine. On pure Nexus I had to use the v image to get the radios to even work.

Its really weird because I used the U image and the radios freak out really bad like WiFi messes up something fierce,like something weird happens with the WiFi ping. so I went back to the Q image and bootloader and radios etc then reflashed back to pure nexus and all seems OK except for an unusually high battery drain it feels like.

Franco kernel. How do I update to 4.0.4 IMM76I

I received a notification for the update to 4.0.4 IMM76I and accepted. My phone downloaded the update, rebooted, and started to install the update. However, about 1/2 way through the update, the Android changed from updating animation to having a large explanation mark on it. Nothing happened for 10 minutes, so I removed the battery and hard reset the phone.
I'm using Franco Kernel on the phone. Can anyone help me understand why the update didn't finish? Is this because I'm not using a stock kernel? Will I receive the update through the Franco kernel?
Please help! I'm still battling the signal loss issue and can't fix it! Thanks

The update did not finish. You need to be running a stock IMM76D kernel.
I've posted both an image you can flash in fastboot, and an image that you can flash in CWM. Flash one of those first, then install the update.
Worked! Thank you!
Worked like a charm. I'm now running the latest build. Thank you so much. Hopefully this will finally solve the lost signal issue I've been experiencing.

Let me have a try on your cwm-IMM76-boot-zip, thank you very much
It was the radio!!
Well, I was able to upgrade to the IMM76I build, and the signal lost issue did not go away. Then, I realized I was still using an XXKK1 radio, which didn't seem right. So I flashed UGLA4 radio and haven't had a signal drop in over 24 hours.
Yah!!!! Thanks.
can someone post or PM me the IMM76I stock kernel?
i want to flash AOKP milestone 5 but it uses Faux's kernel
i dont like his battery life, i want the stock google kernel

If you are too lazy to use fastboot, you can try the attachment. I just whipped this up myself right now. I haven't tested it, but it should work.

Partitioning difference between bootloader la03 and lc03

It seems it is not possible to get _exactly_ stock jellybean without applying the OTA update from IMM30D.
The new bootloader (LC03) seems to have a different partition table than the old one (LA03).
The phone won't boot if I flash LC03 on top of the Koush jb-takju.zip Jellybean update, and CWM can't mount the /data partition.
My guess is future OTA updates won't work running the "stockiest" Jellybean I can manage going from a takju device (LA03/XXLF1/JRN84D)
Anyone have any suggestions?
I did it by copying new boot loader, radio and the JB zip to SD card. Pushed cwm via fast boot, went into cwm and cleared out all the data and caches. Flashed new boot loader, then new radio and finally the ROM zip. Rebooted and I had the full works.
The key was to do them in one go without reboot. There was a guide on here somewhere that I followed.

I flashed LC03 just fine after flashing Koush's jb-takyu.zip

How different is the partition table? Any idea why?
It obviously works without the new bootloader but I can see the concern.
Is the userdata partition jolted around at all?
Will a nandroid restore of data work properly from the old table to the new one ?
I figure I'll just wait until an official release is available entirely in fastboot format, then make the necessary changes.

Although I haven't verified it yet, I don't think there is any difference in partitioning. (I think the OP was having other issues.) Users with the LC03 bootloader AND with earlier bootloaders have had no issues. When I get around to it, I'll pull off the partition sizes with the LC03 bootloader and compare them to the sizes of the LA03 bootloader (as seen here).

[Q] What is a radio?

Hi, I have the Koodo T989D and I was thinking of flashing a custom ROM but I also read that you need a radio? Can someone else in detail what it is? What is the best radio? I'm using my unlocked T989D on WIND MOBILE in Canada. Thanks!
Most of the roms available here do not have the radio included in it, meaning that the version of the radio (System Setings -> About phone -> Baseband version) will not be overwritten.
If you flash a rom and find after that the phone disconnects from wifi or does not connect with your service provider, it is safe to keep a radio zip file handy.
You can find most of the available radios for your phone here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895400
There is no "good" radio. It depends on your location.
Fell free to test all of them and see which one performs better.

Alright so my phone is a Koodo T989D, would I be able to install lets say a T-Mobile T989? Also I see a lot of radio for Telus,T-Mobile etc.. which one would be the newest and better one compared to call those like the multiple ones.
i would say to use a TELUS radio because TELUS is Canadian it should get you a better reception

I have the same phone and am using it for Mobilicity. I'm using Liquid Smooth RC7 right now with UVLH1 radio. This combination works well for me. I know RC 9 is released but I haven't had a chance to try it yet. RC7 is working perfect for me so I am reluctant to flash the new version.
But just as others have said, try different radios to see which one works best for you. Everyone is different depending on where they live. Just remember to Nandroid it first before trying anything.

Before you flash anything, remember to back up your stock rom first in case you ever need to change it back for warranty purposes or in case your messed up somewhere along the way.
Once its backed up,then you start to flash the rom of your choice. Just follow the instructions laid out by the dev. Your radio wont be affected when you flash a rom. You can flash the radios separately afterwards. I use Cwm without any issues but others use TWRP. Use what you are comfortable with. You shouldnt soft brick your phone as long as you flash the ones deigned for our phones.

1.Reboot the phone into recovery and backup current ROM.
2.Pick a radio from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895400 and download zip file.
3. Reboot into recovery and flash zip file.\
Check to see if reception and data speeds improve. If not, try another radio until you find one that works for you.

So I just installed the TELUS radio and it didn't work so I wanted to revert back but whenever I shut down, the capacative touch buttons on it won't turn off which causing me to take out the battery to turn back on the phone. Why is this happening?
What do you mean it didn't work? Are you not getting any reception or data? Did you check your APN settings? You can always restore the backup if you remembered to do so before you flashed the radio. Or you can flash the Koodo radio listed in the radio link from my previous post.
Not sure why the buttons stay lit. I never had that before. Maybe a different radio doesn't work with stock rom. Try to flash a custom one. As stated before, try Liquidsmooth or CM10 Stable.

Check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-sprint/development
Basically, the most stable ones are non-AOSP/CM roms. The others run pretty well, but may have a little issue here or there. The WickedX series is probably the most active TouchWiz rom (close to stock) that will have the fewest bugs.
Hmm when I installed thebarebones wicked x rom the phone seemed to heat up excessively. Most likely from the theme. It was sitting around 114 degrees Fahrenheit. on the stock one it goes from 80 sitting at about 95 to 104 degrees Fahrenheit when im using the stock Android browser.

I prefer AICP 9.0 ( http://dwnld.aicp-rom.com/?device=d2spr ) but that's because I hate Touchwiz (stock) and I want lollipop. The latest nightlies are actually really stable, but if you want a for sure stable release I'd go with a kitkat d2lte ROM or touchwiz.
Is there a description of what's removed and changed for aicp? Or some interesting features? Looking for really barebones with most stuff removed. I got this stock one im using down to 1gb free ram so far. Seems to keep it cooler not doing so many processes all at once. Also i can down clock the cpu to below 1ghz without all the background stuff using up the excess processing power. Doesn't feel so much like a pocket warmer even while quickly going through pages.
Edit: have you had any problems with 9.0? It seems like data doesn't work for me on version 8 is there some fix to flash for 8 or should I just try 9?
If you're on the actual sprint (not virgin mobile, boost, etc) then your data should work fine on 9.0. AICP is not barebones, however. I'd think of it as cm with some good added features. However, I have like 1gb of free ram on aicp idle.

9.0 works great for me on my virgin mobile s3. The latest nightlies are very stable.
Im on sprint.. Do i need to update firmware or flash a radio for it to work? Im using 4.4.2 stock. Also just to make sure im not doing it wrong. What are steps for flashing this specific rom?

You are on ND8 if you are running that rom. Some people have reported success and some have not using that firmware. NJ2 seems to be better for running lollipop roms.
MAKE UP A NANDROID BAKCUP OF YOUR CURRENT SET UP
To update to NJ2: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/41671/L710VPUDNJ2_L710SPRDNJ2_SPR/
Flash a recovery via ODIN, it is the program you used in the above step: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201860
There is also TWRP somewhere, but even though Philz isn't being developed, I haven' t had any issues with it. But if you want to recover your previous setup, it is probably best to use the same recovery as before.
Restore your old setup.
Most roms come with instructions for installation in the post. Basically, nAndroid backup, wipe data/system, install zip of rom, and then GApps if needed. Most custom roms are already rooted about of the box.

No. You need to use odin for the firmware upgrade. Just make a backup of your rom before flashing. If you are using twrp now, just flash that tar through odin when you finish. Then, you can reboot to recovery and restore that backup after flashing the new firmware. And everything will be the same. The whole process will probably take you 30.minutes.

No Radio on ROM Flash

no matter what i do with my htc 10, i always lose radio on flashing rom, i looked and it say only flash oreo roms if you are on oreo firmware, which is what i am doing. i am formatting data like it says to do to rid the encrypyion. because of this i have to restore from RUU everytime to fix radio, restoring from a twrp backup does not fix the radio. home button stops working aswell but it doesnt work in twrp either. is there any way i can fix these problems?

Yeah, ï believe purefusion is based on the nougat firmware so that explains the loss of radio. Check the specs before flashing.......maximus, leedroid or viper should work fine.
You have to read more mate, just checked the OP of the AOSP rom.......
It says it needs N or MM firmware so no O (oreo) firmware.

Especially going from stock sense to an AOSP style rom it's wise to wipe the whole thing because you don't want to mix two roms, strange behavior may occur.
Follow the instructions in the specific thread, if you want to run the phone unencrypted then you need to format data indeed.
Hey sorry to hijack thread but I'm having a similar issue, any sort of flashing I do results in the airplane mode getting stuck to "turning off" and I can't use my mobile network.

I can only get my official zip working. Any help?

Switched cid to bs_us01 or whatever the Dev cid is. For the rom. Other than lineageOS which didn't work, I haven't tried any other rom except dev.

Hey sorry to hijack thread but I'm having a similar issue, any sort of flashing I do results in the airplane mode getting stuck to "turning off" and I can't use my mobile network. I can flash my official T-Mobile RUU zip and things will work fine, but if I flash twrp on official it breaks. I switched over to the unlocked Dev rom and it breaks. I can only get my official zip working. Any help?
My specs are:
Android 7.0
2.51.617.32

That's odd, flashing twrp works fine for me. maybe you need to unlock to be able to use twrp?

Especially going from stock sense to an AOSP style rom it's wise to wipe the whole thing because you don't want to mix two roms, strange behavior may occur.
Follow the instructions in the specific thread, if you want to run the phone unencrypted then you need to format data indeed.

Twrp works and flashes normal, it just breaks my airplane mode making the network unusable when I try to do any sort of modding to stock.

Just as all the other comments, read what you are flashing and which roms.
Nougat firmware - nougat roms
Oreo firmware - oreo roms
You have NOUGAT firmware so ONLY nougat roms work.

I am flashing nougat roms, the wwe/dev rom I have running atm(which is giving me airplane issues) is the same as the official T-Mobile ruu I have that works, only difference is that it's the dev edition instead of t-mobile, same firmware and both are Android 7.0. Flashing full RUU and not any of these custom roms on here. I had only flashed lineage to see what it was like But got rid of it and put on my working T-Mobile ruu.
Both T-Mobile and dev edition RUU is taken from the official HTC website, they're the exact same thing.
