[Q] Can't receive MMS; ROM, kernel, radio, firmware? - HTC Sensation

Hi,
Got a HTC Sensation a couple weeks ago.
Installed CM7 alpha 10 with Bricked 1.6 Kernel, upgraded radio to the one suggested in CM7 thread.
I can't receive MMS messages. The message comes but it fails to download the attachment.
I am with Fido in Toronto, Canada. The phone was initially a Bell phone. I unlocked it via "method 2".
3G works fine, phonecalls work fine, SMS works fine. I tried all the APN settings I could find on the internet. I called fido and they couldn't do anything.
Could it be a problem with the phone? If not, what should I look at?

Check that your Radio matches your RIL via the sticked thread in the Android development section. If data works on your phone then it's most likely your APN mms settings.

Yes, data works. (So can't be RIL issue?)
I tried all the MMS APN configurations I could find on the internet for Fido. I even tried the ones that worked on my Motorola Milestone. Still can't download the attachment.

Never said it can't be RIL. Go into Settings->About Phone. What is the baseband listed?
Also, have you had someone else send you a different MMS and see if it works? Could be a problem with that specific MMS.

Yes, a few people tried.

I had the same issue on Rogers and I figured out that under the APN settings, you need to just put "*"(without the quotations). Not sure if that will work for you or not, but it can't hurt to try. Make sure to reboot after applying the APN settings.

Open up terminal emulator and input this: getprop "gsm.version.ril-impl"
What does it print out?

Well your RIL doesn't match your radio. You should be using the 10.58 radio with this RIL.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202867
Though I heard about that adding the asterix to APN Type has fixed issues in the past. Remember to reboot after trying. Do a little bit more research into it, I'm not entirely sure...

Thanks man. I never really thought about RILs before. So many things to think about. Firmware, Radio, RIL, Kernel, ROM...
I went to the Radio thread and it was saying to just flash the one I did. After reading a bit about RILs, I think it would be best to match them. But is it better to flash another radio, or another RIL?
From: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202867
"Note: If a ROM has a recommended radio , the ROM is already Pre-Matched to that Radio by having the matching RIL files included in it by the ROM chef. For example the InsertCoin 2.1 (2.3.4) ROM will already have the 169 RIL because it requires the latest radio, so I do not want to go flashing the 159 (TMOUS RIL) onto this ROM if I have the recommended radio installed.

How did I end up with a mismatch?

Dammit. I flashed the HTC-RIL_2.2.0169HMQ_Mount.zip RIL to match the radio I have, from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22609618&postcount=313
Now my baseband version says unknown and no signal. I flashed in recovery. Help?

No, I went to apply update or install zip (and then you choose which one off the sd card). Can you tell me how to do it exactly? Also, I thought since they were "repackaged" you wouldn't have to.
EDIT: just tried with mounting system first. Still nothing. I even tried re-flashing the radio. Same thing. Baseband unknown.

Yup. I'm trying a different radio+RIL now...wish me luck. After I flash the radio, it won't boot. I have to clear cache. That always happend though.

Yeah, the booting after flashing the radio is a known bug.

Ok, the new radio+RIL is doing the same thing. Baseband version shows unknown and no signal (obviously). Something about how I'm flashing the RIL is wrong...
EDIT: Doing nandroid restore until someone has a better suggestion

So get this. Nandroid restored my old RIL files. And those happen to match the last radio I flashed, 10.58. So now radio and RILs supposedly match. Still can't download mms attachment. Where can I try this * fix??

From some quick googling, it looks like you're supposed to change APN type to just a single "*"

[Q] Internet connection problem

Hello all
I'm having some internet issues right now. I can connect internet pretty well on wi-fi but when using network I cant open any web pages no matter what browser I'm using but I can use other internet related programs (Facebook, gmail , market etc.). This is the second time this problem occurs. First time I was using stock rom then I changed to virtuous unity and the problem was solved but now it started again. Anyone experienced this before? Or what can I do to solve this?
Could be kernel related
Swyped from HTC Desire S using XDA Premium
If its kernel related what can i do about it?

You should always try to provide as much information and details as possible, for example....
All of this can be got from Settings->About Phone-> software
What ROM?,
What RADIO (baseband)?
What Kernel?
Can be got by rebooting to recovery
what HBOOT?
Sorry for missing details.
Virtuous Unity v.1.31.0
20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M
Kernel unavailable
HBOOT: HBOOT 6.98.1002
Radio from bootloader. 3805.06.02.03_M
I think these are enough, I'll try to flash new kernel but before that i want to ask that if i'll lose anything? Or what will change?

Having the same experienced with you. Got problem with MMS too. Just now, I've called my network provider, it said that I need to tick "Data enabled" first if I want to use internet connection. If untick it, we cannot use the internet connection. Don't know whether working for you or not, but seriously working for me.

I don't use that ROM myself, but, I'm aware that they've released a later version about a week ago, so I'd be tempted to perform a full factory reset and then any additional wipe instructions that come with ROM installation which you'll usually find in post #1 and then upgrade to that.
I'd then apply which ever kernel that they recommend in the ROM thread (or you may find the new version comes with the new kernel). If you then continue to get issues try posting in the ROM thread as well as updating this thread as this may bring you more results....

It might not be related with rom because same issue happened before when i was using non-rooted stock rom. Anyway i going to apply new update with full wipe. I hope it wont occur again.

[Q] Wifi Calling In CM7 alpha5

I installed CM7 alpha and this got rid on the Wifi Calling app. It doesn't even show up in manage applications.
I've tried flashing t0ny0's fixes and xboarders but nothing helps...
Anyone know what to do?
Try wiping cache and dalvik. If that doesn't work, nandroid backup and then factory reset. CM7 #5 does indeed have working wifi calling app
Same thing happened to me. Is there a way to install it separately?
From what I have read in the thread its suggested you wipe davlik b4 and after flashing. Cm,and also flash fixes posted within thread.
I have done all of that and still nothing...
Its not that it doesn't work, its that its nonexistent.
Did you it install for you in alpha 4?
Hmmmm, it's there for me. Well, there's a zip u can flash in the op of core Droid ROM

Maybe it somehow messed with some settings, but then again even if I go to my sense rom and clear everything and flashing cm7 alpha 5 and format everything wifi calling is still messed up...

Do you have TMOUS sensation? If you do, paste me the output of: cat /proc/cmdline
The reason it is disappearing is that on flash, we check to see if you have a TMOUS sensation4g via your modelID, and if you don't we remove the apk. That way both euro and US people can use the same build.

I noticed the wificalling apk isn't in /system/apk in the cm7 zip files anymore.

Also I just reverted to stock via ruu, updated to ota, then flashed latest cm7 alpha6, and still no wifi calling
Persiansown says its probably due to people with super cid. The app is in the zip but it has a nonsensical file name. According to him the cm7 they built for sensation checks your cid and only installs the wifi calling app if your system has the t-mobile cid.
For anyone not on t-mobile, the app is just worthless bloat. Doing it this way means they only need to maintain one ROM file for both t-mobile and European phones.

My first suggestion is that you change the thread tittle, cause my ROM has nothing to do with the problems your phone might have when you don't follow the " how to install" instructions in my threads first page.

Take all your data from your sdcard , take your contacts etc and perform a clean install.

[Q]wifi problems in ICS

hello,
i've been trying to get my mt4gs to turn wifi on in ics. when i turn it on it says, "turning on" but just goes back to "off". i tried turning it on via settings and via the panel. i do a full wipe every install -reset data, clear cache, wipe dalvik cache. also not sure if it's related adb cannot detect device when booted but works fine in recovery when in ics.
i've read and tried the various .zip files for various radio/kernel posted by football but still no go. i may be overlooking a step when flashing but here is my device info:
CWM Recovery version 5.5.0.4 also used 5.0.2.7
Baseband: 11.59.3504.00U_11.16.3504.20_2
HBOOT: Unlocked
DOUBLESHOT PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.45.0013
RADIO-11.16.3504.20_4
Nov 21 2011
it works using gingerbread - tried OTA Stock, as well as bulletproof and it connects ok, but i need to turn wifi off first if i need to reboot otherwise i get the same issue, wifi won't turn on.
sorry for the long post, and forgive me if i missed an already existing thread. thanks for reading. any help is greatly appreciated.
well what rom are you using
I had the same problem with certain ROMs. Sometimes it would even say instead of switching back to off it would just say error. I used Dark Raider for Vivid and had that problem. I did everything and gave up. I downgraded my vivid to GB and rooted it. WiFi is an essential to me so I have to stay where I can switch it on. I hope there's a fix for this soon.

when you flash a rom, are you restoring a backup in titanium or something?
i have never had this problem and i have tried every rom on xda and rootzwiki
I've had this happen too. I've fixed it by using fastboot and flashing the boot.img from the ROM or Kernel update that I had last installed. My phone is s-on so I have to do that everytime I apply a ROM or am update that has a boot.img in it.

It was really frustrating for a while. It was the exact symptom you have described. I kept trying by flashing the kernel with fastboot, then flashing the ROM, and then flashing the kernel again with fastboot. It seemed that whenever I changed something, I had to use that sequence to get it to work again.

Wifi still no go using ICS. Is there a recommended radio version when using ICS ROMS?
Any stock GB Rom version wifi is ok. Using Bulletproof 1.1 works fine as well. Tried v0.9b WildchildICe and update4 of unofficial cm9 and still no wifi. Gonna stick with WildChildIce rom for now and try different Radio combinations.

U got the problem solved? I have exactly the same issue each damned time
When you flash, try mounting system and data in recovery prior to the flash. There used to be an error where wifi would hang as described if those were not mounted upon flashing. Couldn't hurt to try.

[Q] Fresh install of CM7. CAN send texts, but CAN'T receive any

Hello everyone, I'm new here and new to all the rooting and flashing business.
I just installed CyanogenMod 7.2 on my LG-P999 for the first time. Literally everything was going well except for the fact that I can't receive text messages. When I text people they receive it though, and call still works perfectly. I haven't tried of mobile network works yet because I don't have enough prepaid load
I should also mention that I am not using T-Mobile anymore as I am in another country. My SIM is connected to Globe Telecom in the Philippines.
I've tried restoring my backup of the stock ROM, yet that doesn't bring the texts in either, and it disconnects my network when I try running a USSD code. I really can't pinpoint the problem so can anyone please help me out? :crying:
Thank you
Go into wireless settings and make sure your APN is set up correctly.
If that doesn't work, maybe you need to flash the baseband fix. I can't link to it from my phone, but do a search on the forums.

Have you checked your apn settings? Do a Google search for what your device and carrier's apn settings should be and make sure they match.
On a side note (not surrle if this will work or not but worth a shot) download Getril from the playstore. Its free. Open it and use it to check to make sure your ril and baseband are matching. When i flashed cm7 my ril and baseband did not match
-custom sig.

Yeah, my APN is perfectly fine, double checked online. I think it even got the settings straight from the SIM.
And oh boy. It says "Unkown RIL file found" and that my "RIL and baseband 'might' match". So yeah, I probably should download a new RIL, but do you know which one it is? I'm using the March 2012 baseband with the fix you linked earlier.
This really sounds like your sim card isn't working right. Maybe you could try getting a new one and see if that works. As for ril download getril and have it install v21y.
Okay, I took it to the extreme and completely restored my stock ROM, flashed the stock recovery, and unrooted my phone.
And... I get the same problems as with CM7...
I put in my mom's SIM card (same carrier) in my phone too to try it out. Again, same issues. Tried it with my dad's (different carrier). And again, same issues.
A peculiar thing I found is when I type in the USSD code *143# (the code for managing your prepaid account), the calling app crashes and the whole phone disconnects from the network service. At that point there's no way for the radio to work again except for a reboot.
This is getting really weird...
I'm out of idea man. The only thing left that I could think of would be to use ROM for recovery using NvFlash. I've seen Mansa_Noob recommend it to people telling them that it basically rebuilds the phone from scratch at the lowest possible software level.

All I know about this method really is that it's a last resort for the G2X that makes it "unf**kable" lol

If a NvFlash doesn't resolve it then I don't know what will.
