First I'd like to say a hearty 'Thank you' to all the people outside there providing LOS and assistance for the Moto G5 generally.
I updated my XT1676 with/from LOS16 (incl. TWRP, Magisk and Gapps nano) to LOS17.1 (incl...) succesfull following the short step by step tutorial recommended from "TheFixItMan" in one 'ROM'-threat a few days ago.
Now I need help with a telephony problem, which occured after the update and I didnt expect: Building connections works, I can hear my conversational partner, but he can not hear me. This occurs not only calling via mobile network, but also using the Signal-Messenger for a call, independent who of both establishes the connection.
'use-microphone'-privilege is set for the telephone- and the Signal-app.
device microphone works, recording voice with the recording-app and voice-notes via Signal are possible.
Using a headset works, too, but it has to be plugged in before a connection is established. Plugging the headset while connection does not work, unplugging the headset while connection and re-plugging loses voice.
The behavior of the telephone-app and Signal (voice AND video-call) is is similar in that case.
Does anyone know what to do? What can I do, where and what should I read?
Downgrade to LOS16 or waiting for a new nightly?
Thank you!
Edit:
Probably this is a the solution. Does that mean, simply flashing a stock oreo and re-flashing LOS17.1/Los Mint after that should solve the problem?
Did I got that right?
Can I use simply last cedric TWRP for that?
What means 'fastboot-firmware'? Ist that firmware part of the Stock-ROM?

If you flash a custom rom then the firmware it's based on needs to match the firmware on your device
Custom roms for this device from android 9 and above use oero stock firmware as their base
The parts that are different that are effecting you would be the modem part of the firmware
Flash the latest stock firmware via fastboot then you can flash the latest custom roms
Note looks like below server is down so either wait or find elsewhere
lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.
lolinet mirrors - powered by h5ai
mirrors.lolinet.com
Success!
That was really the solution! Thanks to 'TheFixItMan' and 'Andrej_SK' for his "HowTO"!
I got some trouble keeping TWRP permanently stored, though I followed it's instructions, but downgrading to a former version and reflashing the latest solved that. Maybe it was an issue of an 'invalid/bad key', what occured while flashing the firmware ROM and was notified later on the "yo-can-not-trust-this-device-screen". It has disappeared, N/A is shown now.
Now I've got a device with LOS 17.1, GApps, Magisk, TWRP working fine. No phone/voice-Problems remaining.

my device now: i9195, I9195XXUCNE6-DBT
I experience weak signal and many connection dropdowns. When this occured first, after i upgraded f4ktion Kernel 1.3.6 to 1.4.5 and
an older version of Carbon Rom (4.2.2) to 4.3 Carbon Rom. Until than everything was fine, flash of rom and kernel did not made any problem.
Btw i used Odin3 3.09 and clean install (step by step like in the guides) all the time.
After some days this realy annoyed me, so i went back to the older Carbon and kernel - problem still occurs.
So i went back to stock rom I9195XXUBML4-DBT (original was UBML4) - problem still existing.
Some time later f4ktion 1.5 and Carbon 4.4.4 was available, so i tried this..still no solution.
Now i am back to stock and updated to I9195XXUCNE6-DBT, same problem.
Some research told me many ne stuff to know..like flashing modem only. I tried some, nothing helped.
After hours of pointless googleing i noticed something on my phone.When i dont type the pin, i have normal signal. As soon as i type the pin
and "activate" my simcard, the signal strength drops. So i googled again and found this:
[Bug Watch] Android 4.3 Radio Bugs Causing Cell Connection Drops On Some Nexus 4 Handsets, Fixes In Sight (not allowed to post links)
I changed the network type to WCDMA only - it helped for some minutes(not many..maybe 2-3). I changed to GSM only and i had normal,
stable signal for like an hour. But later signal loses strenght again, and i need to change network type again.
I have the feeling, that its like a reset or restart of the radio.
But now i am all out of ideas and need some help.
Last thing i can do, is to bring it to repair. But my Knox says 0x1, so maybe you can help me before i ask Samsung.
I have similar problem since ugrading to KitKat roms. I had no problems with previous none Knox roms with MH3 modem but now with NE6 and NF7 KK modems the signal swings constantly up and down from 4 to 1 bars. This is in areas I previously had good signal. Internet also keeps dropping out requiring data toggling on and off. I've reflashed KK 20+ times and haven't been able to get rid of this problem yet.
I'm not sure if pre knox modems are installable but I intend to try and reflash MH3 modem, once I manage to do a successful backup.
I solved a similar problem by downgrade to 4.2.2 Brazil NE2, knox 2. Flashing separate modem (NE2), and reflashing full rom again. No problems for now
Now you stay on 4.2.2 ?
I dont understand why some people do have problems and some not. Is there different hardware version causing the trouble ?
Give me pls some information how you did the downgrade.
-Nandroid Backup
-philz
-Odin (if yes which version)
-why did you choose that rom
I tried to, but wasnt succesfull. I used Odin3 3.09 to flash 4.2.2 (UAMF5 i think) rom and got a brick. When trying to fix this nothing helped until i tried to flash with Odin3 3.04. But all i could do was flashing newest FW again. Did not test more after that, because i was very busy.
If you say that going back solved your problem, i will try again go go back myself. I've found some information on that and when its done i give some informations.
Same here, help?
I'm having the same problem with a newly acquired handset. I have full signal on some places and nothing on others, unfortunately in my house I have no signal! So it's quite exasperating.
My baseband version is I9195XXUCNE6
Android version is 5.0.2 with 3.4.0-cyanogenmod-g92aec50 [email protected] #1 kernel
Cyanogenmod version is 12-20150306-UNOFFICIAL-serranoltexx
Would it help if I flash a separate modem file through Odin? In that case, which one should I flash?
Any help would be appreciated a lot.
Thanks

Hi, pretty sure I'm being thick but having spent the morning searching I haven't hit upon the right terms to find the answer one way or the other.
I have a D855 which I unlocked, bumped and rooted when it was still KitKat and have kept TWRP in place. Having tried CM12.1 it's not stable enough for me (fair enough it's at nightly stage) so I thought I would try stock Lollipop. Found a flashable zip for it and it installed great. Tried it out, mostly great but, for me, the biggest problem with LP is that Bluetooth rSAP is borked in 5.0. This seems a common issue and looks like it might be resolved as and when the D855 gets LP 5.1 or Android M, but without knowing how long that might be I'd like to downgrade to KitKat again.
So my question is, and the thing I can't find, is there a flashable ZIP of the most recent KitKat based firmware I can use from TWRP? I think it would be (for the UK) this would be V10L (according to here , but the best I've found is V10E (according to here...
Have I missed something obvious, or alternatively should I create my own zip from the Stock KDZ or perhaps just use a custom ROM but with minimal debloating - but not too much as I like quick circle.
Thanks in advance, and apologies if this is obvious.

PBAP (Phone Book Access Profile) works fine for me, why do you require only rSAP ( remote Sim Access Profile) so bad?
It's always your Car That decides the Bluetooth Policy, be-it, PBAP, Handsfree Profile, IrMC/SYCH Profile or rSAP ( which as I say, can only transfer Sim Contacts).
Please, if you are going to be flashing Roms', consider Backing-Up with TWERP, as that is one of it's Major Functions, allowing you to revert back to previous Builds.
Search for reverting to stock by @hyelton (I belive) and use the KDZ you have......

Thanks for the response - reason I want rSAP is so that the car can take over the SIM for data services. i.e. The car takes over the SIM allowing it to connect to the mobile network - this allows it to download things like Google Maps and live traffic for the Sat Nav. This is separate from the contacts (I have no SIM contacts) which still get transferred via PBAP. The key is those data services for the car.
The alternative is I can slot a SIM into the dash but then I need to 'hack' the car to enable the SIM to do data and simultaneously allow voice over the phone bluetooth (not an issue in later Model Years for the car hence it can be configured but isn't a manufacturer supported feature). But as my phone is cheaper than my car affecting the warranty of my phone is the lesser of two evils...
I can't recall - are all KitKat stock ROMs bumpable - i.e. would I be able to flash the KK ROM (going back to complete stock) and just repeat the process for bump and root?
Your comment regarding the TWRP backup is bang on and I did make one at the time I first installed TWRP however I can't now find it/may have deleted it.
Or... maybe I should just use it as an excuse to get a new phone.
Hi everyone,
I hope you can help me with an issue I have. It only pops up on the 14.6.A.0.368 firmware. I have tried Customized DE, Customized NL and Customized CE1. And I experience it with all.
When I revert to 14.5.A.0.270 the issue is gone. Also on CM12 I have no problems.
In my search I have not found others with this issue, so keeping to ITIL standards I will not call it a problem .
Here it goes:
Bluetooth disconnects. When connecting to my car stereo ( Renault Clio MediaNav ) the phone will connect, be registered by the stereo ( as indicated by the battery charge indicator on the stereo's screen ) and then disconnect again. With the error: "Unfortunately, Bluetooth share has stopped." See attached image.
I have included the Logcat I made of 2 cycles of connecting and failing. 1 Zipped and 1 filtered on Bluetooth.
Now for the strange part a work arround; If I reboot my phone it connects just fine. But only the first minute after the reboo. Any time longer then that even if no BT connection was made or BT was off and it will fail as stated above.
Well it seems a newer Firmware is out, Not for "My" region yet, but Im going to try Customized DE. See if that fixes it.
If I don't update you can consider it fixed.
Edit: What worked for me was flashing D5503_Customized DE_1279-6978_14.5.A.0.270_R1D prerooted DualRecovery.zip . Restoring all settings trough TitaniumBackup,
Connecting to the Bluetooth device I had trouble with. Verrify that it functions correctly.
and then flash the newest firmware 14.6.A.1.216 ( Also Custom DE ) with flashtool ( excluding Cust-Reset and Fota-Reset ) keeping all user data.
Now BT works as intended.
Why a clean install of the 2 latest rom versions gave issues for me, I still don't know.
Hi there,
Excuse the novice. Just got this 2 days ago and I am still trying to figure it out why I can't access the net at all.
I have not got Android experience much and I am digging now how to come out of this situation.
So no option to access Net at all. The Error in response is " Couldn't sign in. There was communicating problem with Google servers . Try again later." So this is like a loop there.
Android Version -5.1

I must admit the Phone came preset and once I have switch it on it picked up GMT time without I have set anything.
I will appreciate any help or pointing to a resources to try to solve as now it is unusable as I can't download anything.
Thanks in advance.
Check:
Settings --> Data Usage --> (cellular provider tab) --> toggle 'enable mobile data'
See if that's the issue. Good luck.
Now Stacked to The Elephone Logo on and unresponsive.

I can't do anything right now. The phone by itself (really) got in a mode I can't read even with letters so small, went to the Android Man with red Mark and now is in front of me unresponsive with the logo of Elephone totaly unresponsive.
Just to underline - I have not touch anything- I have left it on stand by last time I have played with it.
Any clues and help please will be much appreciated.
PS. NOW I have managed to (I guess Switched it off) and again on and there was window with APP UPDATE - came to 116 out of 116 updated and now again can't access the net neither Google Play.
Could this be a OTA Update completed somehow?

Hi again,
I have enabled the cellular data - no luck again.
When I am trying google play again message Google servers can't be reached and the more interesting - using the - preload browser it try to search trough yahoo search. This phone was sold to me as new, but I am starting to wonder what it has been through before it reached me?
Will a flash using PhilZ Recovery will help?
Could someone point me the way out of this please?
Thanks!
New bizarre Message.
Hi again,
Just to make it more interesting out of the blue it Popped up a Message box with following wording.
"In a Previous Android Version You have disabled all Google App services. Do you want to enable them. Yes/NO,
Of course I have chosen Yes and Again Can't reach net neither via Cellular data nor Wi-Fi.
Any useful contribution will be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Stuck on Airplane Mode? Try toggling it on and off. I remember my HTC OneX having an Airplane Mode issue - had to toggle on / off several times and reboot.
ETA - faulty APN settings for your provider? May explain a mobile data issue, but doesn't address the wifi issue.
Dammit.

WI-FI still an issue. Is there any sense - updating a driver (if I am not asking stupid question here)?
Thanks!
Glad to hear at least cellular working! The wifi issue is a bit of a mystery to me though - I'm all out of smart ideas, sorry
Hopefully some other bright soul can chip in.

download drivers for SP flash tools and SP flash tools program.
go and download mediatek drivers and sp flash tool.
you can get these from elephones website, google or where ever. i got mind from needarom. i used the latest versions for both.
i downloaded the 5th November 2015 firmware from elephones rom. it came pre 7-zipped. i unzipped it and left it's structure.
installing the drivers part:
you need to disable signature enforcement in your OS to install the drivers.
open SP flash tools.
load the scatter file in the official rom folder you unzipped with 7 zip.
at this point press the download button in SP tools.
switch off your phone. connect the usb cable to the phone and the computer.
you should now have the latest firmware on you phone when complete.
please note it wipes everything, so back up anything important to you.
once done, set up your apn in settings, mobile networks, access points.
wifi should work after a clean factory reset if you don't have a dodgy device.
elephone only supports 2.4ghz for wifi as far as a i know.
also make sure your network bands and are supported by the p8000.

Hi El_Nino9,
Thank you for the reply and sorry I am delaying my response. I have actually done some of the suggested previously once I read more on the site - thanks for the contributors here. I had Eragon 9.5.0 Custom ROM set with Philiz recovery tool after Mediatek driver download but the wi-fi is still an issue.
I will try to perform the the one suggested from you, I just have located the latest Elephone p8000 ROM on the Elephone site and will perform this on a first chance I have. - most probably on Friday.
Thanks once again and I will post an update from the outcome.
OK!
I have done the upgrade to the 05.11.15 Stock ROM.
Have made a Factory Reset and the Wi-Fi is working as before but I can't reach internet basically.
Again after attempts to get to Play Store or to or to perform a simple Google Search it comes again after message "Just a second" and after 20- 30 seconds it end up with the message.
"Google Server can't be reached at the moment please try again later."
Any help on this will be much appreciated!
Thanks a lot in advance!
P.S>
I have just discovered that the icon of the WI - FI showing a processes going on but I can't reach My Router URL for example through the Local network.
Does it mean this is really dodgy unit or I am missing any settings or there is any cure for this?
Thanks again!

so your mobile data still works on the latest firmware? specially after typing the correct apn settings?
regarding your wifi, where is the router in relation to your position? far away? standing right next to it with the phone? whats your encryption for your wifi? tried changing that to a different type and seeing if it connects?
if you have big concrete walls and live in a nice solid building that may too cause signal not to reach. the wifi isn't that great on the device speaking from experiance in comparison to other devices.
if all fails... possibly dodgy device

Hi EL_Nino9,
I guess either the p8000 not like my D-LinkDIR-655 router or I am missing something in general.
I have an extension for the other rooms and the phone connecting to a simple TP-Link with no hassle at all, but D-Link is like a brick wall - you see the wi-fy working but no internet access.
It is still a mystery.
At least is proven the wi-fi module is working.
Believe me - I have tried to alter the setting on the route and still can't get to the net content.
Will keep exploring this and will report if any luck.
Thnaks!
I´m facing the same issue here. Google-Services like Google-Photo, Gdrive, Inbox are not working. Any solutions so far?

Hi kraftmaschine - I have discovered that my aged D-LInk DIR-655 was giving me problems dropping out the signal. I had an access through mobile network and through my other room extension rooter, so I got on mind either compatibility issue or router problem. So I have upgraded the router and voila. Everything got sorted.
Also upgrade to the latest mod - not OWA but using the standard methods described here.
Hope that helps.

Hmm... sounds like something that started happening on my M919 a few months ago.
Another user with similar (same?) issue posted in general here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-tmobile/general/sound-voice-calls-t3392450
My reply was this... haven't tried the fix yet:
dirkdigles said:
This just happened to my M919 a few weeks ago. Voice call audio works via bluetooth ONLY but not via phone speakers or wired headset. Everything else (media, videos, whatsapp calls, messenger calls, etc.) works fine.
I did a lot of research and found almost nothing ... except this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=heJqdryGhrs
http://blog.brokenlcds.com/samsung-galaxy-s4-speaker-problem/
If you look at the 2nd picture, I believe that the solder connections on the Audio IC chip (in-call audio chip) are degraded.. Initially if I put pressure on that area on my phone, the audio would cut in and out. Now it's completely gone.
I've read that if you disassemble the phone and use a heat gun to carefully reflow the solder on that little chip, the connections re-attach and this may fix the issue.
I haven't tried because I can't afford a new phone right now and don't want to risk further damaging this one, so I just have my calls currently forwarding to my GVoice number, which works fine.

Hi, a quick question, does it work on other ROMs? E.g., does it work normally on SlimLP, RR, AOKP, etc., to see if it is the phone or CM12.1 problem.
Also, to post a logcat, just paste it into the XDA post, and select the code flag.

I haven't tried any other roms besides cm12.1. I tried updating my phone using kies to the lateset firmware and that didn't work either. Luckily my phone is still under warranty so I'm getting it replaced today.
When I tried pasting logcat, the forum said it was too long. I don't remember if I tried the log with warning level.

Hi!! My girlfriend also has a similar problem, but she is on cm13. I haven't figured out the solution, but it seems that when you call someone, if you press the loudspeaker button twice (i.e. -> loudspeaker -> regular), the problem is solved. However, you need to repeat this for every call. Does this happen with your phone too?
