3g Crashing - HTC One S

My HTC One S on Three Uk drops 3g every now and then. It gets annoying because I have to keep turning the 3g on and off to make it work Any ideas to make it work all the time?

Quite a few people have issues with the signal. What radio version are you running?

How do you check you radio number?

Thats the latest radio for the One S
Boot into your recovery and wipe cache, delvik cache and fix permissions, see it that helps.

Some people just deal with it. Because its most likely a radio issue, it should be fixed in future updates, however you can ask for a replacement if you really want too.

I can't get ota because I unlocked bootloader and installed cwm no root though.

You can always relock and run a ruu. Theres even ways to do it unlocked, check out the dev section.

Ok thx!

Typically any Official update will break #SU access and sometimes cause a serious headache in the process.
If you are rooted, do not apply the update. Just wait for a kitchen baked variant to be released.

The ones in the radio thread stickied in the development section are ok to flash. They are setup properly for root. Bluetooth definitely got some attention in this update. Much more stable connection than before, not perfect, but much better and livable.

maybe fixes visual voicemail bug?
For about 6 weeks I've been having issues with the stock visual voicemail app force-closing every time I tried to use it. I tried going into the app's settings area and clearing its data, then re-enabling it in the caller app, all to no avail.
I just installed this update and it looks like my VVM is working again, so I'm hoping this was indeed a known issue and was fixed.
(FTR, I'm not sure that a factory reset before the update wouldn't have fixed the problem, but I didn't feel like re-installing all my apps so I let it go and just used the old-school voicemail number for a while.)
Is there anyway possible for me to get the update because i had s-off and then i wanted to unroot but i used gfree so i had to use gfree and ran into a crap load of problems leaving me right now with s-off and no root permissions . i need to get a new mytouch because this one randomly restarts and i cant send in one with s-off... can anyone help me out?

Is there anything in this radio other than a new radio and new hboot?
I'm s-off via engineering bootloader, NOT gfree. Is it worth the trouble to use gfree so I can ruu and stay s-off, accept the update, then flash clockworkmod recovery via bootloader, then go back to cm7?
That's exactly what I did with the sensation.

My Findings With TWRP

Well I was using Clockwork Mod. Then I foolishly Installed Clean Rom 4.5 final while using clockwork mod..got a soft brick -:splash screen would not boot...no access to the recovery...could not flash a recovery...but access to boot-loader :-...
Got the bricked sorted out and decided to move to TWRP..That didn't go well at all
Issues found after flash
1: Google contacts would not sync at all...no matter Rom I used
2: My dialer crashed...no matter Rom I used
Moved back to clockwork and all issues was solved
This Is only my observation and It may be different to others

No one here can prove that my issue wasn't caused by TWRP..what I do know is that when I used TWRP I had those issues then I went back to CWM and It didn't.
In all rom installation I did full system wipe..and the Issue only happened with TWRP
A recovery causing rom issue ? First one i hear hey reflash the same rom whit twrp and let us know how it goes smarty..

Did it more than once and it didn't happen with cmw and yes a recovery can cause a rom issue
way back in the htc desire days certain rims could not be flash using certain recoveries because it caused issues...some users found that with a certain recovery the rom was more stable than the other
Just beware flashing something with an aroma installer with cwm. Bad mojo.
Lol make your OP clear you have flashed a rom whit a recovery not recommended FOR the rom ...
You didn't know it so you post this ..
I guess all you had to do on the rom thread is either read OP clearfully or ask of it is ok to flash whit twrp

yes it happened to me too google contacts sync and dialer crash and yes i found that twrp is the culprit of not clearing the data correctly.onle fix i found is switching recovery to cwm,clear the data,switch back to twrp and install a new rom and worked for me.
I've been using TWRP since the beginning on multiple One X's and never have had a problem.
Maybe OP didnt wipe correctly..

i love it, being able to mount usb storage from recovery is convenient and important (saved me from having to lock bl, then flashing stock)

As I said the soft brick was because I used the wrong recovery..that wasn't the issue..I already sorted that out..
my phone was stock..I rooted then flash TWRP then started flashing roms and I noticed the issue after that..I wasn't asking for help on this thread
all I was doing was letting people know what was happening to me while i was using that recovery..If xda belongs to the guys that never made a mistake while using a phone and don't want no one else to post then i wont..but all I was simply doing was letting people know what brought me to that point

Some people were made perfect and never made a mistake..they can do any and or everything so since there is nothing else to do with the life that they have they will sit and read a post and would be quick to make a judgment or start calling names..I admitted I made a mistake and I fixed it..then I found an issue while using TWRP only to point it out...The person that made the recovery may see an issue in the recovery that could be affecting certain phones and fix it..or someone else might had a similar issue and just give some input about it..
most of us are here because we like tweaking what we have and in doing so some make mistakes and others learn from it..its what XDA is about
Google contacts and dialer being messed up are known issues with CWM. They persist even after flashing other ROMs. It was likely a residual issue from CWM, not TWRP.

Connection problems with SUPERLITE CM10 JB4.1.2 RoM

I recently flashed to Vincom's SUPERLITE CM10 JB4.1.2 RoM | V8.0.
Ive gotten things up and running pretty well, but there is one major issue I seem to be having. My phone is not consistently able to connect to data on AT&T. I am frequently losing my data connections in locations where I have always had them in the past.
I searched around on his developer thread but didnt see an answer. I saw a reference to APNs for AT&T, but his note says these should now be included in the ROM I flashed, so Im not sure if I am missing something.
Anyone know if this is a common problem or how I can troubleshoot it and get up and running again?
Thanks.
Haven't heard of this being a problem. What modem (baseband) are you on? You can find it in settins, about phone.
Also, in settings wireless, more, mobile networks, Check that the access point name is on att LTE

Its gotten worse. Ive spent the last 5 hours with almost zero data access.
I see baseband version i727UCLI3.
Access Point name was was set to ATT wap,cingular. I switched it to ATT LTE (pta)...should this fix it? Any idea why this would have happened? Will I need to keep checking this or was it just something from the ROM flash?
flash the ucli3 radio again or try another ics radio

[Q] Flashing Radio Viper 3.2.7 on OneXL, worth it? And 2 Noob-Questions

Greetings guys
I'm running ViperXL 3.2.7 since yesterday and i love it! After browsing the HUB i noticed, that there are several Radio's available for my phone.
Is it worth it to Flash a new Radio, or ist it just an unnecessary risk?
And my two other Questions are:
1.
I also read in ViperXL Topic about WiFi Partition's. Never heard of that before and Google don't want to tell me what it is. Could one of you Guys explain what "JB WiFi Partition Update" will do to my Phone?
2.
When I want to Update on Viper 3.2.8, do i have to clear Cache or Dalvik? Or am I able to load it via "Check for System-Updates" on my phone and just install it.
Im very anxious that my HTC will brick when I do something wrong.
So please, don't be that hard to me. I'm a newbie.
And furthermore my english is also not that great
Thanks for your time, mates!
Regards,
Kureno
The need to flash radios all depends on how your current radio is working. For instance: is your signal strength ok? Is your battery drain acceptable? If your answer to these questions is yes, then you probably don't need to flash a radio. But if you're struggling with signal problems, testing a few different radios is a good idea. Flash one and note the signal strength, flash another and note the signal strength, and so on until you find one that works best in your area.
In regards to your question about the WiFi partition update, if your WiFi is working ok you don't need to do it. If you're getting reboots when using WiFi then you might want to try it.
And, I usually download the OTA update from the thread and flash it manually, basically because I don't trust OTAs. And I always wipe cache and dalvik cache, it can't hurt.

Thank you for your help!
Regarding my Signal-Strength, I think it's okay. But my location and my weather report doesn't update automatically.
HTC Weather is always telling me: "No Data for your location".
But when I click on Update, it updates my location and my weather report.
And when i start my phone, it takes a while until i have a Signal for telephoning or sending sms.
Can those issues be fixed by flashing a new Radio? Or do I just have to live with them?
I had the same problems with weather while using the Viper ROM, but I haven't used it in a while. The length of time it takes to have a usable signal upon boot will not get any faster by changing radios, at least I don't think it will.
