[Q] MIUI 2.4.20 Signal Loss - HTC Inspire 4G

I flashed this ROM about a week ago or so and only when I'm at home does my signal completely drop. Sometimes it even says emergency calls only. This signal loss dilemma is driving me insane. Has anyone else had this issue or know of a fix? I read online on another website that another person had this problem, but they're using a completely different phone than me. The article stated to try flashing a new radio, would doing this make a huge mess? I'm totally new to flashing kernels and never flashed a radio before. Initially I had no sound when I first flashed the ROM and read that Tiamat 1.1.5 kernel would fix that, which it did. I really like this ROM and I've never had this before but if I can't get a steady signal I'll have to switch. I read that MIUI v4 builds don't support themes completely, but they do support lock screens, icons, and wallpaper changes. Any ideas on what I should/can do?

Before flashing a radio, I would say to re-flash the rom.
Full wipe and re-download the file.

[Q] Coredroid 5.4 Wifi and audio issues

I wiped my Inspire with 1.3-Wipe and then flashed Coredroid 5.4 yesterday after booting into CWM Recovery. I used the ROM throughout the day and it is awesome. However, I work in an urban area and our Wifi strength is ridiculously high and my mobile signal strength is as good as it gets for me.
When I got home, I immediately noticed connectivity issues to my home wifi. It would sort of work off and on, and when it worked it was very slow. I tried switching to mobile data and it was even worse. My phone would even occasionally display "no service".
We had storms in the area so I dismissed it as a fluke. Now I'm back in the office and turned on wifi. I noticed right away that two different audio streaming apps had drops and buffering issues (iheartradio and TuenIn Radio, different stations). I immediately wiped my phone and restored my stock rooted ROM. The audio popping and buffering issues went away immediately.
Is not flashing the radio the cause of these issues? I'm really hesitant to flash radios for a number of reasons some of which may be my newness: knowing different between UK/US radios, conflicting info on "ENG S-OFF" being required or not on the Inspire, conflicting reports about radios breaking 4G speeds and requiring re-rooting, etc.
This question should be posted in the coredroid thread as it is their rom they will be able to direct you better on what you need to do.
I agree. 10 post minimum to post in Dev forums sucks.
I would try re-downloading the rom, then reflashing. I never had those problems with core droid, even on the stock radio.
I guess re-flashing is worth a try. An md5sum of the ROM image was posted in the Desire HD thread, and I verified that mine matched. So I don't believe that there's any corruption in the main file.
I also installed the following mods: Circle Battery Meter, Calendar Fix, and the Original transparent rosie.

Did you flash all the mods right after flashing the rom without rebooting ?
No, I let the phone boot and settle after flashing the ROM and I didn't even load any apps. After it seemed settled I booted back in CWM Recovery and installed the zipped mod files. I then loaded most of my apps from the market directly, and installed a few that were in my download directory.
I ran OS monitor to try and see if something was maybe hogging the CPU, but I didn't see any evidence of such. I may just be cursed.
Sometimes the Rom just doesn't flash right. The first thing they would tell you to do is wipe and flash.

Mobile Data- Total sudden loss.

Never had this issue where wifi will function without issues, although anything independent of wifi, which is data related, such as market, GT,will simply not work at all.
I attempted some common sense approaches to Apn, sip toggle but nothing.
Full connectivity is present in statusbar.
Regarding ROM. I thought is was my Rom when upgrading to a different version of Faux kernal, but unsure as I even reverted to stock kernal.
I decided to perform a super wipe and flash a new T-Mobile based custom rom with Faux built in.
previous ROM- Beast ROM.
Current ROM- HTC super light- HTC CLAY
This is where I stand now....
Suggestions?
Hi,
The same thing happened to me today. I updated my radio to no avail. Wasn't prepared to re-flash the ROM.
About 5 hours later, mobile data reconnected! It may have been a network-side issue, not my phone.
Has yours come back on?
Thanks for the post. Yea it actually did recently reconnect.
Maybe down as you referenced.

Thank you to the developers of MR3

I wanted to thank the developers of MR3 in this thread. Liquid, Jester, etc.
I'm a long time lurker of this forum since I got my Thunderbolt. I'm VERY VERY appreciative of the developers for creating a very functional ICS rom for the Thunderbolt. Shame on HTC and Verizon for sandbagging so long with what should be a very simple upgrade for them. I was running Thundershed for awhile but grew tired of the Gingerbread look and feel of Android. My friends all mostly have newer phones with ICS, and I couldn't believe that it was supposed to be out in August and it's now mid-October and it's still not out.
To my surprise, I log on to here and see that an ICS ROM had been released.
My only issues with this ROM are random restarts and the white screen error in Facebook/Gmail/etc. I don't really use the video camera much in general; could you use an aftermarket app, or is it broken period?
Otherwise, I absolutely LOVE this and will never go back to Verizon's bloated software. Even when an OTA is released with ICS I won't go back. My phone is running much faster and much better than with Sense and Gingerbread. With data off I had a 10% decrease in battery in 7 hours; with data on and normal use I'll get maybe 5 hours out of a charge on this ROM. About normal for this phone and it's absolutely terrible battery life with the stock battery.
I have it overclocked to 1.5ghz running interactiveX as my governor. It runs beautifully, other than those two minor issues I pointed out above. I haven't experienced any data drops or anything out of the sort like that.

I second this thread.
A major thanks goes out to all of you who develop, in any way, for the Thunderbolt community. This even includes testers.
To answer your questions...
The video and front camera are broken even with an aftermarket app and will remain broken, most likely, until Verizon releases the OTA. From the OTA, our awesome developers will then be able to fix camera issues and many other issues that will make their ROM's 100% stable.
Also, if you get random reboots, you may want to flash to a different radio.
If you are currently running the OTA radios from the 2.11.605.19 software and still get these reboots, try flashing the combo radio and hopefully the reboots will vanish or, at least, happen less often.
If you go to your settings, about phone, software information, more, and look at the baseband version...
If the numbers you see are:
1.49.00.0406w_1, 0.01.79.0331w_1
Then you are on the OTA 2.11.605.19 radios, which is my recommendation for the radios to use with this ROM. If these are the radio numbers you see, try the combo radio. If the numbers you see under your phones baseband version is not:
1.49.00.0406w_1, 0.01.79.0331w_1
Then it may be:
1.48.00.0930w_3, 0.01.78.0916w_3
If it is:
1.48.00.0930w_3, 0.01.78.0916w_3
Try flashing the 2.11.605.19 OTA radios found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1605557
If you have the 2.11.605.19 radios, though, try flashing the combo radio found here:

Definitely want to ditto this thread. Thanks for continuing to support the Thunderbolt. I was on the verge of retiring the Thunderbolt. ICS has brought new the Tbolt new life though!
thanks for the links. I'm going to try upgrading tonight and see if that helps. I notice you flash the radio in hboot. If I do a nandroid backup, does it also backup the radio (so I can restore it)? Or if I **** up, will it be permanently bricked?
Ditto to all that has been said. Thank You to all who made this happen, including HTC and Verizon. Their inaction drove me to decide to root and find alternatives. I've been incredibly pleased with MR3.
Thanks all!

If you backup that ROM after flashing the radio, it will back up the ROM. Hboot is a whole different thing than the recovery. That radio is downloaded to the phone and will automatically run on any ROM after its downloaded, even if you start from scratch. But flashing any of those two radios will not brick you on any ROM. Worst case being you won't have signal or data until you flash different radios again.
Say if you upgraded to the newer radios, and then you flash a ROM based on an older software version, you won't brick. In fact, you may not ever experience any issues. Maybe just signal changes or random signal drops.
But no, it won't brick you. It's almost impossible to brick a Thunderbolt.
I recommend after flashing the new radios, immediately go and either change the name from PG05IMG to something custom, move into a different folder that's off of the root of the SD card, or just delete it once flashed.
This is for in a such case where you need to get back into recovery from hboot, it won't prompt you to install the radio again. Because if you had to get into recovery from hboot, it wouldn't allow you to since it runs a check for the PG05IMG files first... and with that being said... I was always told to never flash the same radio twice without changing to a new one first.

i dont' see why these ROMs get so much acclaim... when i tried LiquidSmooth it wouldn't stay connected to the Internet. tried to toggle wifi and 3G/4G. nothing works and i have to reboot the phone every time i want to use the Internet.
Liquid MR3: the setup crashed and now the ROM won't even come all the way up...
unless my phone's broken or something (going to Verizon tomorrow to reflash and check it), i say they're both absolute garbage. i've had much better luck with ROMs on other phones.

well i reflashed Liquid this morning and it didn't crash this time, connected fine via wifi and setup completed properly.
all of my radio issues were on the old version (not sure if there's a difference in radios or whatnot), but if it acts up again i will try your recommendations. thanks a lot.

ah i see what happened now.
the first time i flashed it, i cleared /data after the flash before i brought the OS up, but you've included the launcher as a user app and not a system app. was this intentional? a user could easily screw up by uninstalling the launcher and have no way to interact with the OS. shouldn't there be a default launcher embedded in the system programs?
i'm an Android dev, but my understanding of system development is limited, but if i'm not mistaken, any Android ROM should come with a default launcher that is not uninstallable and has no icon as a backup launcher just in case.
He did install it that way so if the user wants to install their own launcher and remove the default. Its simple to make the new one a system app. All that has to be done is move the apk to /system and it is uninstallable.

[Q] Why is Virtuous Inquisition v4.0.2 the only ICS that mobile data works on for me?

Please help if I am missing something. I am s-off wire trick. I believe I have the most recent radio. 11.59.3504.00P_11.16.3504.20_2.
I can flash the 3.0.53v8 or v9 kernels over this rom and most everything works but wifi so I am sticking with the 3.0.16virt kernel that is available with this rom. But I cannot flash any other of the CM9 or CM10 roms and get data. I have flashed them multiple times, tooled around with the vpn's got a new sim card, got a new phone (warranty), spent too much time with customer service at TMobile. Still, no dice. I am pretty happy with this ROM aside from not having DSP Manager or the ability to add it. Is it because there are still some elements of sense there like the camera? I thought it was a APN input issue but I have dialed in the same APN's as Inquisition for any other CM9 or 10 roms and nothing. Any help would be appreciated.

I know this is no help to your situation, but I've run all the available ICS and JB roms that are for the MT4GS and I have mobile data and wifi on all of them. There have been some issues where data drops occasionally, but it will reconnect in a matter of seconds. With the later kernels like r8 and r9 I had no dropouts.
I believe that Sense-based ROMS require a kernel that is built for Sense, so using a CM-based kernel (like r8 or r9) would definitely cause problems. Likewise, using a Sense-based kernel on a CM ROM would be unwise.
If you like Sense based ROMs, have you tried either the Bliss ROM from sun_dream (the XE 3.32 version, not the 3.33) or the MikXE ROM? Of the ICS Sense ROMs, I found them to be the most stable and battery-friendly right out of the box. For a CM/AOKP, the AOKP JB Milestone 1 is very stable and functional, and gets you Jelly Bean... even Google Now works well on it. CM9.1r9 is a great, very stable release, as well.
Just make sure you're doing a very thorough wipe before flashing any new ROM. Even go to Mounts and format the /system, /data, and /cache manually wouldn't hurt.
Thanks

So, I did the full wipe and flashed the newest cm nightly on my phone. No data. Did it again, full reformat et all. No data.Flashed the v9 kernel on top with no wipe. DATA! Thanks. I must have to flash things a few times for them to take. This wasn't a problem with the roms that had some "sense" to them. Weird. I've done the reformating before when I was s-on and never noticed any effect. Now I'm gonna try the CM10 you recommended. I like this phone a lot. The market is based around people buying new phones once a year at least. It's crazy. It's not fair that you can purchase a phone that 6 months latter has a totally obsolete Rom. I am so glad you responded. This makes my life a lot easier. Thanks!

It almost sounds like you're S-ON or still locked. Could you be S-OFF but Locked? You could always fastboot flash the kernel after you flash the ROM just to be sure, but if doing what you just did got the data working for you, then I wouldn't mess with it. If you do want the Jelly Bean without too many issues, I would go with the AOKP JB Milestone 1. The Paranoid Android JB ROM is also very nice, but it does require a little bit more tinkering.
I'm s-off jb from doing the wire trick. I have flashed that cm10 rom with v9 kernel. Have any issues with mms? Got any apn tips?

When you say cm10 rom, do you mean the AOKP JB Milestone 1? When I was running it I didn't have any issues with MMS, but I use Handcent SMS as my messaging client, not the built-in client. I also use T-Mobile and the standard T-Mobile APNs worked fine. I do see that some people are having issues with the r9 kernel, maybe if you flash the r7b kernel (standard, not experimental) it will be more stable. That seems to be the kernel some people find is the best combo of performance and stability.
Yes

Sorry I should have specified. I am in the middle of My CCNA2 and Comptia+ hardware exams this week and I was writing from my phone. AOKP Milestone 1, yes. I think it is the best CM10 I have flashed for MT4gs yet. Just a bit of a battery drainer and I've got an Anker. I tried hand scent this morning. Tweeked the APN's and now know way too much about the ins and outs of this phone not to just learn to become a developer
I got the rom to send MMS but not receive without it being marked as a download. So, coupled with that and the battery drain, I decided to go straight for the r9 kernel and it's rom. Supercharged and ultimate jar patched it. Pimp my rom'd it. And it runs very well, sends and receives mms fine. My issues seem to stem from a combination of problems. Yes doing a complete wipe and manual formats and flashing the specific rom and kernel helped ingrain the rom I believe. But the main culprit is those darn APN's. I finally found alternate APN's and after going through them all in every combination, turning on and off my wifi to check the mobile data latency in terms of how long it took to come on, I have discovered that a T-Mobile Data APN named wap.voicestream.com with the mmsc set to the /mms/wapenc, the MCC:310, MNC:260, and APN protocol of IPv4, with everything else not set of unspecified, allows my phone to come and go between wifi and mobile data with no latency, just like the sense based roms did. So far no drops, but have been bunkered down studying and doing last minute work. When I leave the house in a minute I am gonna be driving around for about an hour to and from where I am going playing spotify, so that should be some kind of test. I also tried internet2.voicestream.com but it was not as consistent of a mobile data signal. They are trying their best to control all bandwidth and software so we can spend a fortune upgrading our services and buying 3 phones a year just to have a proper interface. Most phones are going to only one LTE radio soon as opposed to one that will do data and one that will do voice, effectively making the devices less expensive for them to manufacture, but not for us to buy! Hopefully there will be enough of a niche market to have qwerty hard keyboard devices that are decent released periodically.
Has gone from a well intentioned but flawed technology to a stable streaming around this corner of my city. No drops. And spotify kind of sucks in comparison to other streaming services in terms of quality and performance. I don't wanna get too excited though, ill have to wait a month until I begin to have confidence again that ill have consistent data.

What city? Are you on a T-Mobile account? I'm in Atlanta and T-Mobile data is pretty good here, and I use the standard APNs (epc.tmobile.com). I also used my phone while in China, bought a China Unicom SIM and had excellent data using their system as they use the 2100MHz frequency for HSPA+.
Dallas, TX. Its solid around here but streaming high quality in a 40 mile radius could still be spoty with the meh quality of spotify, probably a load on their servers at rush hour, coupled with the fact that I've been so use to data drops. I'm telling you, the apn fixed my problem. It seems to be a known issue on these threads. Massive data drops. There needs to be a thread compiling alternate apns for people that have that issue with cm 9 and up. Double flash, full wipes, apn config. I'm on the cm 10 unofficial now with its standard kernel. Seems solid. Better battery life for my phone. Every time I flash a kernel I get intermittent data until I change to that apn above. Like zero to occasional. But now my data is tough as nails.

hey guys im s-on unlocked n currently running [ROM] [01-DEC-2012][r9] CM 9.1 + bat drain fix + usb trans speed fix + other tweaks right now and not getting any wifi. i am coming from the only rom that would give me wifi (virtuous inquisition) but that rom got too heavy too fast n was done on my phone. so i switched between a few other ics roms and none of them r giving me wifi.
i dont want to go back to virtuous inquisition but i need wifi. my setting just wont slide over. any help would be appreciated. THANKS!
Have you tried "fastboot flash boot boot.img" ? Using one of the boot.img files from the CM9.1 ROM you're running? It's a necessity when changing ROMs with S-On.
The big issue with no wifi as I've experienced s-on or s-off is that the rom is not sticking. If you are s-on do not try to switch out different kernels, just flash the whole rom. Also, id try the v8 version of that rom because it seems more stable. Go into your recovery, wipe cache, wipe data, wipe delvic cache, go into mount/format and format cache, data, and system, flash rom zip, flash gapps, fastboot boot.img, then let the phone reboot and don't touch it for at least ten minutes, reboot into recovery, wipe cache, data, and delvik cache again, flash rom, fastboot boot.img, and wait again another ten minutes or so while itg reboots. Don't touch it even if the droid comes up and asks you for what language. It is still loading. This is the usual issue regarding roms not sticking. Multiple flash of the same rom over itself and not touching for ten minutes or so after flashing. If you don't know how to fastboot boot.img get hasoon 2000's mt4g all in one program. It'll instruct you to remove the boot.img from the rom and place it into one of the folders in the program and will fastboot the boot.img for you. And btw, the wire trick is real easy. I didn't do it for a year but when I did I was suprised at how easy it was. Makes flashing roms less of a headache.

When flashing a ROM with S-On it isn't actually the ROM not sticking (although that may happen in certain circumstances) but it is that With S-On (security on) the kernel doesn't get installed at all thru CWM. You HAVE to flash that independantly & seperately & LAST And ALWAYS this way thru ADB with S-On. There IS no other way. (Save perhaps pushing that to the right partition thru terminal but that is another discussion altogether).
Yeah, what he said. And if your not savy with adb get hasoon 2000s all in one and it'll do it for you.

I haven't done anything else to it. My question is that my data pretty much completely drops in malls. Which normally doesn't happen with Verizon in my areas. Is this due to the rom? If so, does changing to a jb tw rom change that? Or stock rom only.
Second if I do move to a custom jb tw rom will I be able to install the cm sms? I don't like the stock one. Ex cleanrom
Does changing the kernel on cm10 affect anything. A Grey area for me
Thank you for any input in advance.

That was/is a known issue with CM, data drops. Im not sure if its been fixed or not so not 100% sure if its still a issue. TW roms dont have that issue at so you should see better data with running those. Yes AOSP mms has been ported to work on TW, I use this one and it works flawlessly. As for the kernel you will see better performance and depending on the kernel you can underclock/overclock and undervolt. You can just make a nandroid of your current setup and flash a TW rom and try it out, if you dont like it just restore your backup.
I really doubt that it is the rom at this point in it's development. The SG3 has about the worst radio I have ever had in a phone. My SG3 can only make calls and send/receive SMS in two places in my house-- my old DX and friends and families other phones work in any room in my house including the basement. I restored back to the stock rom and took all the OTA's yesterday and my phones performance has not changed one bit. I had VZW replace the device once when about a month old due to this issue, the replacement they sent had absolutely no WiFi reception, they replaced that and a few months later that phone destroyed itself when I plugged in a OTG cable, I'm on my fourth now and the camera doesn’t focus, its got a giant black screen inkblot, and the reception issue is still the same. I am going to duke it out w/ Verizon again in a bit to try to get it replaced again. Supposedly some of these devices have working radios...
Later,
Jason
