[Q] signal issue

Hi
I'm using the latest kernel .32
Barebones RLS 4_5 Odex build
1.70.18.02 Radio
the thing that I don't have any signal in my kaiser. it simply shows the name of the network provider but with no service at all. I have tried several builds and it's the same thing "no service". If I try to search for the network manually it says "error while searching for the network". I can import contacts from the sim and the radio that I'm using currently used to work well with WinMo.
anyone has an idea how to solve this???
P.S: I have searched for the issue and I didn't fined answers

Try a different radio rom, preferrably 1.65 . Also if your using an old build with the new kernal or vice versa that can affect your wifi.

Going in and out of Airplane mode didn't help right ?

I have taken your advice and tried several radios:
1.65.21.18
1.71.09.01
1.70.18.02
1.70.19.09
nothing have changed
the problem still persists I have no signal nor service
WiFi, Bluetooth, Camera and sounds work fine
is it possible to be a hardware problem?
the build I'm using is relatively new; in fact it's your Barebones CM6.1 froyo release.
I have tried newer build and nothing have changed
"No signal" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

no certainly it didn't help
it's a nightmare
a phone without signal
I remember with my early days with android, I used to have good signal
but as I started using different builds and updating the kernel seeking for better stability and better battery life. the signal was lost at some point which I don't recognize.
is it a kernel problem?
or hardware?

How about flashing back to stock WM ROM?
if the problem still occurred maybe it is a hardware issue

actually this is a good idea
I should try it and report back
even though I would hate the look of WinMO in my Kaiser after seeing it with Andriod

You tried almost exclusively 1.7x radios. Try more 1.65 radios. As hard as it is to believe for most people its just 1 radio that works for them. I had to try 11 different ones on my kaiser before I found one that worked proper.

OK I'll follow your advice
I would report back later
it's weird because 1.7x radios used to work fine
but not now

If WM didn't sove the signal issue it sounds like your phone may have an internal problem with the radio unrelated to android.

are you saying it's hardware problem?
what part do you suspect?

Well its either the chip itself or you have a bad antenna. Could try an external antenna.

I guess that would cost a fortune to fix (especially in my country) if I could find someone to fix it in the first place
but to make sure I'll try to flash all Radio ROMS again and check any of it would work.
thanks for your hints and tips
my kaiser is dying

Updated RIL (06.08.11)

I have made some updates to the RIL which is the driver for the radio in the phone and would like some people to test it and let me know if they have any issues with signal (as in no service at all from their provider when they did before the update) and also data problems. Apply the update like any other update, from the android installer menu.
EDIT 6.8.11::
Hello again, done some more updates on the RIL for you all. Seems to sync with the modem app a little better for those that just can't let go. Still don't think it's necessary though. Anyway, a few more minor improvements I believe, give it a go.

Hi Scoot thanks for sharing new kernel and updates for us..
I didn't check ext4 or ext2 compatibility because I always do nand installation, but about RIL update I do have signal issue.
After fresh install, my device gets no services at all but after turn on and of ariplane mode and a very long wait, finally the signal reception is fine. Oh, I guess there is also a problem with data connection because sometimes even with 3G or gprs icon appears in status bar, I get no data traffic in or out when I tried to open market or browser. But when it happened, I do airplane mode again and sometimes it fix the problem
I've tried in both your CM 7 and 6.1.2 with Radio1.65.21.18

Hi Scoot, is a HaRET bootable version possible?

Hello Leona, i appreciate the donation i received a while ago, little things like that make working on this even more rewarding and worth the challenge You can obviously test the RIL with haret and I have attached a zImage to the first post which you can put in your haret folder
The zImage is untested because i don't use haret so let me know if there are any problems.

Thanks Scoot and no problem.
The Kernal seems to boot fine.
I'm having the usual fun of trying to get into the install menu, so have not been able to apply the update yet, will let you know.

Thanks Scoot, seems to work fine - I don't get any signal problems with the your new kernel and RIL. Data is working correctly too. (using your CM6.1.2 build with radio 1.65.21.18)
What kind of changes have you made to the RIL?

There are a couple of snags with the RIL, in terms of call performance it is much better, but with data after turning it off and turning on again it fails to get a correct IP, but going into the modem app and turning off then waiting for it to turn on and reassign an IP works so I need to look into that. THe RIL has changed massively, lots of bug fixes and extra stuff added in. Signal strength is now reporting correctly rather then just having either no bars, 2 or 4. In theory calls should come in a little faster too but we'll see. There is still work to be done, mainly to data though, i'd like to get it working like a native android phone being run from the ppp service rather then a script which deals with it all at the minute. This should then do away with the modem app so it can be fully controlled by the OS.

Hi have managed to apply the update now, and can confirm that all works well, yes I noticed that the data connection failed at first, but switching between the two o2 options seemed to fix it.

Thanks for the feedback Leona

Scoot are the changes made to Ril kernel specific?
I have a '25 branch kernel can I update my system with your patch?

The RIL isn't kernel specific, the kernel was just something else I had been working on so you can apply the RIL update regardless of kernel

Excellent,thanks Scoot.
It seems to be working fine except for data issues that you have mentioned before. Now it really shows the correct signal strenght, where I had zero bars before (which was kind of odd) now it shows one bar. Great update.

I update my RIL before 20 min and for now everything look fine.

I haven't tried the RIL yet, but the kernel works well. I had an issue where ramzswap was crashing the kernel whenever compcache did the insmod, but then realized that it was an old module, and that you provided zram.ko instead.
So, the question: does somebody have a compcache.sh that works with zram? Or, a zramconfig utility compiled for our target? I miss my compcache!
I'll try RIL soon.

To answer my own question, this edit of compcache.sh seems to work for me.
Also, I have your new RIL installed now, and it seems good. Cell-tower location seems to work, although I'm not sure because I haven't moved to a different tower yet. HSDPA data works, and I have one bar right now.

Kernel works fine except standard crash during sleep (can't wake up, qwerty backlight on) once a day. Boots normallly from Haret, no waiting.
RIL kills my data connection, works after turning airplane mode on/off.

Is the connection issue strictly for Haret users, or is NAND affected as well?
I've been running 2 phones, one with .25, the other with .32.9, both Liqid's and 1.70.19.9 radio.
Also, AT&T is doing upgrades to our area right now so I might not be a good candidate for testing, but I can give feedback as soon as I get it installed.

It is an issue for all users, the problem is in the 'kill connection' code in the ril. I'll be trying to fix it when i get a chance but for now it doesn't stop data from working, it just means that the radio or modem needs to be turned off and on either by toggling airplane mode or using the modem app included in most builds

Tried it with 7.0.2 RLS2 /system on nand /data on ext4. Took a long time to acquire t-mobile and even longer after in/out of airplane mode. Did get a data connection but had to go back to airplane mode after using wifi (wifi worked great). Had it on about 7 hours and received a couple of calls. It woke up for me to answer after 4 rings on the caller end. Then I had to make a call and it hung up immediately after dialing the number(tried several times and numbers). Other than no out calling it settled down and was very usable. May try 6.1.2 (RLS6) tomorrow pm. Thanks for the hard work

Hey does this kernel contains the optimizations for battery use done by Krazy? Cause with his kernel i get a lot of lag after a long sleep period!

[Q] Can a wwe firmware cause issues with my wifi (based in USA)?

I know there's a wifi issue thread, but this is a little more specific.
I started having issues with my wifi over the weekend... It shows connected, but takes 70-100 seconds to "register" that there's a connection. By that, I mean: When I open an app, it takes that long for it to "connect" and start working. Some apps will time out and say "no data connection". When I test it with Speedtest.net, it takes about 90 seconds of "finding server" to test my connection. When I test it, I'm getting great speeds, but it takes too long to connect to the server. If I turn off wifi, and just use mobile data, it works fine.
This has me wondering if there is an issue with an international or dev firmware, or the actual radio, running in the USA? Maybe it takes longer to recognize one or the other? It's not just my phone either.... There is another, older, rooted HTC One M7 in the house having the same issue (running a wwe or dev firmware) with a custom ROM......So it's not just my phone.

I suppose it's possible. You should be able to run Viper with the AT&T firmware, though. So I'd try flashing the new AT&T firmware and seeing if that helps clear things up.

Unfortunately, until someone extracts it, RUU is the only method I know of.
Either that, or return to stock (if you made a system image backup before rooting) and take the OTA.

Yeah, I just RUU'd..... Even on the stock At&t ROM, I had issues....Couldn't stand stock, so I'm now running the most recent At&t firmware on a current wwe (2.10.x.x) ROM with no issues (yet).

I run wwe firmware with no issues on wifi as i did with my m7 and m8 too.

[UPDATE] Wifi issues resolved
After numerous hours/days of working on WHY my wifi doesn't work properly.....I got it figured out.
I flashed the RUU of the official At&t 5.1 ROM = Did not work (so I flashed back to my fav custom ROM)
Changed every setting I could find/think of in my Netgear router = Did not work
Exchanged my Netgear, thinking it was faulty, for a new (better) one = Did not work
Tried my, retired, Apple Airport Extreme router = Did not work
Called my ISP several times, no help at all (worse than calling At&t) = Did not work
Logged into my cable modem and disabled ALL security and Firewall = Did not work
Tried my cable modem's built-in wifi = Did not work
FINALLY, I exchanged my cable modem for a different one at my local office...... IT WORKS!
So it was something *wonky* with my cable modem the whole time. Wish I knew this before buying 2 new routers over the last couple months! Oh well, I now have a couple good backup routers

Upgraded to 6.0, now WiFi sucks

So I upgraded to 6.0 Wednesday night, since I check and it was available. Got it installed and discovered that the wifi is extremely unstable. It oscillates between full signal and no signal and anything Im streaming cuts out regularly. Every minute or two I would say. It gets bad enough that some times it will disconnect and use LTE then immediately reconnect. I finally figured out that if I disable 2.4GHz it works fine on the 5GHz signal from my AP, even though its pretty low. I scanned and there doesn't seem to be any new APs that popped up overnight. My AP auto selected channel 1 and the nearest other AP is on channel 6 (its kinda rural out here)
Any ideas or is this something someone has encountered before?

So you simply went for the OTA that got pushed to you?
Maybe its some old files or apps causing this. I assume it worked just fine on 5.1 and got bad on 6.0 so something during the update caused this.
If you can (S-OFF etc) I would suggest making a backup and flashing the Dev MM RUU that's available. Like that you have a pretty good base to go off of. If just briefly use a stock ROM and if the problem continues then its something in MM if not then it was your particular OTA update that caused it.
You can then either make another backup of the STOCK ROM and restore to your old one and see if the problem continues (firmware issue) or is fixed.
Trial and Error

Yeah, It was the OTA.
Not looking forward to nuking eveything. But I suppose Ill have to try it if no one else has the issue. Kinda need 2.4Gig support since not all APs broadcast on 5Gig

There are no ota's. Only the dev edition m9 got mm.

You could try clearing the cache? Other then that I'd say a full reflash is in order.

Aslong as you make a twrp backup and save anything from the internal sdcard you'll be fine.

WIFI Not enabling

Hi Guys,
Noticed today that my WIFI won't turn on. You can try, it attempts it - but ultimately, it goes to the off motion again.
I've tried going to the following and backing up the WPA Supplicant file, but still the same. data/misc/wifi/
I'm using the ROM MIUI 9 from Xiaomi.eu v. 7.10.26 - Rooted.
It's worth pointing out WIFI has been running fine on this since I installed it (5-6 weeks ago).
EDIT: Just checked, and the WIFI Mac is 02:00:00:00.00.00 Will look into this, not sure how its happened as I didn't change a thing!
Thanks!
EDIT:
So I restored from To October 15th, wifi works. Go figure... What settings do I need to take from that to the current version? Or just easier to update to a different ROM?

Just to add to this, I done the OTA and that fixed the issue. No idea what caused it...

I just get the same bug with WIFI MAC address 02:00:00:00.00.00

Updating to 7.12.21 did not fix the bug. I had to factory reset the phone to have wifi working.

Good job it's fixed! Interestingly, did your phone battery go in low power saving mode prior to it occurring? I seem to remember that being so. Can't say for certain.

Mix 2 wifi and IMEI problem
Hello, hello I need your help in a matter. I have 2 devices in my hand. Imei had to be discarded. After installing twrp and magisk, I deleted modemst1 modemst2 fsg partitions from pc while in twrp to remove IMEI from qpst. Whatever happened after that, wifi does not turn on when partitions are deleted match address was 000000. I did not take backup. I open the device with rooted diag but says qpst no phone connected. He sees the port but does not recognize the device. I can't write in Qcn. Fastboot rom, I installed custom rom did not recover. What should we do?
