Hi all,
A week ago I bought a brand new Desire S and installed latest CM 7.1 stable following the guide on cyanogemod Desire S Wiki using revolutionary 0.4pre4. Everything was smooth and nice, I flashed ROM and GAPPS and my phone is working absolutely perfectly... but there is one little problem...
I am using Desire to fetch my mails from 2 mailservers using IMAP every 30 mins. But when the phone is switching between network modes i.e. HSDPA -> EDGE or EDGE -> GSM or any other way, I am disconnected from operator network for about 10 seconds until the network mode changes and everything is fine after that, until there is another network mode switch.
This happens for me about 10 times a day, so my phone sometimes appears that It is turned off for people who want to call me. Immediately after connecting to network I get a missed call SMS from my operator.
Interesting thing is, that when I disable email fetching, disable background data transfer and disable network data, the phone works fine without "blackouts".
Can someone help me with this problem? Maybe a radio issue?
Some more info:
ROM: Cyanogenmod 7.1.0 Desire S
Recovery: Revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4
HBOOT: 6.98.1002
Kernel: 2.6.35.14-cyanogenmod+ [email protected] #1
Radio: 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M
There is a newer radio-file online.
Maybe it's solving your problem.
I'm using MIUI and never had such problems, but i'm interested in flashing CM, so please report if the problem is gone by flashing newer radio!
Which radio version are you using?
Today I am testing 2G only switch so I am on EDGE data only.
Flashing radios is safe......, but a bad radio flash will instantly brick your phone.
You are using 1.47.401.4 radio, try updating to the 2.10.401.5 one.
Thanks for reply.
Shoud I flash something else with the radio?
I have 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 downloaded from cmw.22aaf3.com
Another I have is ftom OTA update zip file OTA_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.8-1.47.401.4_release_225210fmxlt12djw1sr7y5.zip where is one radio.img in formware.zip file too - version unknown
So Which one to flash?
and if so, which method should I use to flash radio? The Android SDK one or the ZIP + Bootloader one?

Both will work, i'm using method by using bootloader normaly
Strangely I had the same issues as you on Endymion.
Then I updated radio to the latest.
It worked well.
Then I went to CM7. It was fine for a while, but now I'm losing signal with no 3G bars and its not switching automatically to 2G like it should when It has no 3G signal!
EDIT:
After really reading your post, I realise my issue is no way like yours! Yours seems really bad. Update your radio.

So, here we go with the results
I flashed 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04, md5sum checked OK, update sucess, but phone with no signal...
I flashed 20.48.30.0822U_3822.09.08.20, md5sum checked OK, update sucess, but phone with no signal again...
I flashed 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03 back, md5sum checked OK, update sucess, but phone with no signal again...
... what now ... ?
After each flash wiped cache and Dalvik...
in your telephone-info there is shown the new radio after every flash?
do you have removed the batterycover, because there is integrated the antenna of your device!

No, the cover is at its place where it should be. Somehow I did the trick and I am back online with 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03 on 2G only for now.
I read somwhere in the forum that ENG HBOOT is required for new radios... Are you sure I dont need to flash eng hboot it before new radio ??

in your area 3g is actually available?
may it helps to go outside, to find your net for the first time!
did you set an accesspoint for 3g?
may you have to set automatic settings, rather than 3g/2g-only?!

using same hboot as you, never had problems on flashing radio-files!
yes, in my area there is 3g, when I turn off 2g only switch there is a problem described in my first post, so i am on 2g for now just to keep phone connected to network.
main problem is when i am driving and the phone is switching network modes.
so I give 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 today another chance, try to flash if again.
but i am woried about stucking on HTC logo after flash :-( and brick it.

i already had the problem for several times, and i also pulled out the battery (you shouldn't do that)!
only had to boot into bootloader, start recovery, wipe all partitions, flash rom and was having fun again with my device
this thread could help you, if really stuck on HTC logo
For your real problem on loosing the signal, did you ever tried out using actual stock rom, or another custom one like MIUI?
i used MIUI from 2010-08 till yesterday, now trying out CM7.1 for some days
I have the same or a very similar problem. I have the stock rom.
I already had 3 different desire s motherboard's and 2 different display's.
The first Desire S i had, with android 2.3.3, had a excellent signal. Due some problems i had, the phone bricked and had to go to HTC to repair.
HTC replaced the motherboard and update the version of the android to 2.3.5 and ever since the signal caption, the signal switch was working very bad.
The phone went to a second repair because of this, new phone, and again with android 2.3.5. The problems persisted.
I also tested with different SIM cards, from different mobile operators.
So, my conclusion is either android 2.3.5 or this new versions of Desire S have problems with signal caption and signal switch.
So as you, i need some help with this issue!

But when I reboot to recovery it will flash the radio again I think.
i hate stock roms, and dont like MIUI design That is why I am using Cyanogen
Anyway if I use 2G only switch, the phone is stable as rock both calls and data transfer.
EDIT: OK, flashed 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 sucessfully, signal OK, I will see what happens whet metwork mode switches
@Green Hawk:
give us more information about your device please, which radio you're using? Did they flash actual radion also?
@MyroLM:
report if the problem is still there or it's gone with flashing the rom
I am still testing new radio, but looks good Give me some days let you know...
Hi All,
I have a similar problem with the latest CM7.1 nightly builds (Reaper, jorgen2009). I never saw this with older CM7.1 versions, e.g. Nexx version, ICS, MIUI oder Endymion.
I have WLAN on and leave my house. Phone switches to 2G/3G..., so far so good. When I return home, The WLan sign in the status bar appears again, everything seems to be fine, but I have no connection. I get no data via WLan until I swicth WLan off and on again.
Radio is the latest from 2.10.401.5.
Best Regards
Wrapp
Had similar problems, upgrading to the latest radio helped. I got stuck on the HTC screen and I went through flashing RUU's and unlocking bootloaders back and forth... when the only thing that needs to be done is to wipe the cache.
Learned a lot about bootloaders though. But my warranty got void because i did the htcdev unlock... (Sorry for OT)
Hello. I've tried several rom's without any luck on the whole wifi connectivity issue... I tried paranoid android, pacman, bruce's aokps, etc.
None of them allow me to connect to a wifi network, not just the one I have at home but literally ANY.
I tried everything suggested on these posts and still can't solve the problem:

Please, just for my info tell me when wifi does not working did Bluethoot and FM Radio work. This is my problem but I never go back to stock and maybe I should do.
Strange I was running paranoid rom and Wi-Fi worked perfectly! Now I'm running pac man and Wi-Fi works perfectly also. Wonder why it wasn't working for you??

Yes. BT and FM Radio worked fine when I had that problem. You may want to try reflashing your ROM. Wipe everything but SD before doing it...
If it still has issues try going back to stock thru the bootloader PMG*** file (something, I can't remember the name).

Hi, what is the exact problem?
Can you enable the wifi?
Can you see any networks?
Its weird ....
Most of the time (98%) it says "wifi error"..... or "wifi connecting"... but nothing ever happens (No connection , No wifi networks)
Once i woke up in the morning .... i tried to turn on wifi ... and it connected for about 5 min ... and then "wifi error"..... or "wifi connecting".
It's been like this for about a month....
The weirdest thing happened two days ago.... the phone fell down, (thank god i had a jelly case on) ... after a while the wifi was ok .... for about 20 min ... connected to wifi network .. downloaded apps.... went on facebook .... and then it started going (ON OFF ON OFF ON OFF) really fast...
I RESTARTED the phone ... an then (ON OFF ON OFF ON OFF) really fast... AGAIN ...
After 1-2 reboots.... i got the classic "wifi error"..... or "wifi connecting".

Are you sure that the problem isn't coming from your router?
if you have data plan on your phone (gprs or 3g) download getril from playstore,maybe your baseband is not matching well..just try is free...
I don't think its the router.... cause ive tried connecting to various routers .... friends, hotspots etc.... its a phone think for sure.
Thank you ... i will give it a try and get back to u ...
ANY IDEAS... are welcome... !!!
Thanks again.

I haven't played with my Sensation in a while, but I have heard that the HTC phones have a tendency to get the wifi wire "loose." It might be a hardware issue - there are instructions for going in and reconnecting the wire to make the wifi antenna more "secure" - maybe attempt that?
You were right....
The Baseband and RIL didn;t match .... now they do ... thanks to getril... BUT PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. !!!!
Thanks... for the reply.!!!!
Any links on this antenna issue... that i can use...
ALSO ...
DOES ANYONE KNOWS ANY RADIOS OR KERNELS .... FOR MY CURRENT CONFIGURATION !!! (VIPER S 1.5.2)
Thank you ..
The Sensation has golden pins that connect to the back cover in order to receive signal, be it WiFi or mobile signal. Maybe the pins for WiFi aren't touching the golden parts on the inside of the back cover, causing the same effect to signal strength that taking off the back cover results in.
wifi issue with firmware

got a sensation (vodafone) with stock everything. did unlock and s-off and it installed revolutionary hboot. flash latest firmware 3.33 universal and all hell broke loose, no wifi on any rom, kernel or any boot.img i tried flashing. stress i tell you!!!. after days of agony i tried going back to 3.32 firmware universal and it worked. so avoid the 3.33 firmware, KILLS wifi!!!
I am back in 3.32 for about 2 days now because i read about this possibility of wifi error on 3.33 .....
I am running the Viper S 1.5.2 wich as it says works with 3.33 but i have no probs with 3.32 at the moment... EXCEPT THE CLASSIC wifi error...
Maybe i should flash a 3.32 cpmatible ROM ... just to make sure ~!!!???
Which rom do you Use... and which 3.32 ??
Can you provide me with names or links ...
THANK YOU ..
-G-
Any ICS rom should be compatible with 3.32. Firmware. However, I doubt it's a 3.33 issue. I've been running 3.33 for quite some time now and never had ANY Wi-Fi problems.. but it's worth a try . I hope you get your issue fixed! Check the rom before you install and it should tell you if it requires 3.32 or 3.33. Hope this helps. Best of luck.

I got same issue with WiFi works and then loses connection . Can't download any big files like roms. I'm on 3.33 firmware and running arhd with anthrax kernel . Gonna try 3.32 firm wen I get home . Oh it happens on all roms and kernels . Must hardware related or firmware related . Also notice some black spots where the WiFi and data pins touch might try cleaning those and see if it helps

Hi all!
After ditching my Desire HD, I bought myself a HTC One S for its faster soc and better screen.
As I was used to having everything working on my former phone I'd expect this for the One S as well..
So far I've reached Unlocked bootloader, SuperCID and S-Off. Still on HBoot 2.15 though.
On PAC-man Rom at the moment and experience some Wifi problems as its not connecting to all wifi networks, yet some of m work.
Tried all sorts of radios from the Development forum, Sense version, Temporally version and CM version. None seem to take effect.
Tried some different Kernels as well, same outcome..
Tried ViperRom (with and without update) this morning and Wifi isnt able to switch on, even after different kernel and radios..
In short... is there a way to get all types of Wifi working on AOSP or Sense rom?
Is it neccessary to downgrade HBoot (as there is bricks reported)?
I'm on 2.15. S-off. Super cid. But I never had wifi problems. Have you tried the wi-fi fix on the radio thread?

I have not found a seperate file tot flash or push for wifi fix, so i presume it is incorporated in the aroma installable radios.
Wat ROM are you on?
OK. Here's what I've found out..
Since I'm really anonoyed by my phone not connecting to all types of Wifi I flashed an RUU.
I did this during SuperCID and S-OFF and just ran a .exe RUU.
First one I tried: RUU_Ville_U_HTC_Europe_1.09.401.1_R_Radio_0.14.3059.14_2_release_243825_signed.exe
It had no effect, booted up, yet Wifi was not fixed.
Next one I tried: RUU_Ville_U_HTC_Europe_1.53.401.2_Radio_0.15.31501S.19_10.12.31501S.06L_release_251412_signed.exe
And voila my Wifi worked.
On Hboot 1.06 now, flashed recovery and next PAC-Man ROM v20.0.0.
Now my Wifi again is selective like it was before.
I hope someone has an idea where to look as I simply don't understand what the problem is..
Tried the Temporary Radio V2 as well, no effect.
Anyone?
In the developer forum there is a radio thread with the WiFi fix.

Yes, as mentioned, I have tried the wifi fix, doesnt make a difference :s
Have you tried switching your hboot around?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38387544&postcount=148
Thanks for the hint.
However something I found out was that the new version of VenomROM V2.1 does give me full Wifi.
Unfortunately I don't realy like Sense Roms and rather have a different one.
I redownloaded PACman v20.0 and have tried all Hboot versions, none seem to make an improvement on Wifi capability.
Some work, some won't..
Going to try one or two Hboots with different Radio's from Temp Radio installer V2.
Anyone got an idea? Or perhaps a nice Hint again
Hi all, kind of a newbie, but I've been rooting phones for a few years and have never had this issue. I wanted to upgrade my ROM to Maximus HD 10 and that was a big mistake because it involved going to SuperCID and S-Off. I was successful with both, but I ended up uninstalling due to not getting 3G/4G. Well, plenty of uninstalling and trying new ROMS and still I am left with 2G only. I have flashed the latest T-Mobile US Radio but it doesn't seem to do anything. I'm thinking it is a firmware issue, so I was wondering if there is a firmware I need to flash and do I need to fastboot flash it or recovery flash it? I am tempted to call T-Mobile and just order a new phone in the first place, but I would really like to have 3G/4G back. What firmware do I need and also does installing a new RUU overwrite the CID, firmware, and radio? I would love to back to the T-Mobile CID and the stock rom. Please help, thanks!!!
Keep soff and flash tmob ruu. All ruu contains firmware.zip, so if you flash tmob ruu you will downgrade your hboot and radio. Also make sure you'll wipe sd card from bootloader after ruu.

I have drop signal issues, 3g and 4g seems normal but lose complete signal constantly.
i had home button issue when signal drops from 3g to 2g. home button activates itself sometimes when browsing internet and often drop action to homescreen. that must be radio related. and sometimes stock browser loose connection while chrome works. got tired of these things and everything all working perfectly when going back to Viper roms. any ideas ?
