No mobile network at all randomly? - HTC Sensation

Hi, I am currently having this weird issue of having no mobile network at all, at first I thought it was a faulty sim card but when I changed from o2 sim card to a orange one still no signal, I then tried a virgin mobile sim card but with the same issue. I am clueless on what my next step would be in fixing this issue. My phone is S-OFF running ViperS 1.2.1 running firmware 3.33. I tried flashing a different RIL which matched my firmware again but same issue still persists.
Any help on what to do next will be greatly appreciated

Try changing radio and ril. I had the exact same issue once after flashing a recommended radio . I fixed my issue by flashing. Generic ics radio and ril .best wishes

Make sure your APN settings are correct. It's possible that the APN's got deleted somehow. If so, that will kill mobile data.
Alos, make sure there is only 1 APN to choose from. (Just make sure it's the correct one). If you have multiple to choose from the SIM card can go haywire trying to figure out which one to connect through, even if you clearly have selected 1.

Would you mind giving me a download link to the generic ICS radio and ril files?

do this ... on dialer *#*#4636#*#* and go to phone information and check the "preferred network type"
it will be normally in WCDMA preferred ..change it to GSM only or any other (one by one) and check the mobile network
also check the IMEI (verify it )..some times IMEI mismatches happen for some people

Thanks for your input, I tried changing it to GSM only but it automatically goes to WCDMA preferred not letting me choose any other options. I also checked to verify the IMEI number was the same as on the phone and it was correct. Confused why I'm experiencing this issue all of a sudden

Just reflashed the 3.33 firmware but same issue persists, no mobile signal :crying:

Very strange. Have you tried the different radios ril with no luck? Does it act like this with different roms also? Have you tried? Hope you get this resolved soon ! When my network went out a new radio and ril did the trick....wishing you the best. Hopefully you can get this resolved soon!

Issue is being resolved by my network provider, the incompetent staff blacklisted my phone as lost by accident meaning I won't get any signal no matter what sim card I insert.
Thanks for the help anyway guys

Android Revolution 4 g compatible?

Hey, im running 3.1 of Android Revolution HD on my new 4g Sensation and I don't seem to have 4g access ever since I've rooted my phone. Beforehand on stock there was a little plus next to my mobile data symbol but now its gone.
The speed test app also showed lackluster results, my download speed was like 534kb while upload was around 700 kb.
I am assuming there is an easy solution to this, maybe turn it on in settings or something. (I just checked the 4g coverage for my area and apparently I have 21 mbps download speeds.)
Thanks in advance for any help you can give!!!
(I am with Bell Aliant in Canada by the way)
May depend on the radio you have installed. Just something every user has to play with. H is also the same thing as 4G with t-mobile. You also cant go according to what they say you can get either. It's all in the hspa+/4G dispute.
Ohhhhh, yes it must be the radio then. Why does the Developer of Revolution HD recomend using the radio listed with his rom? Apparently I lost 4 g access by installing it.
So, by uninstalling it and reinstalling my old radio I should regain 4g access right?
Also, what downfalls are there to using a stock radio?
Thanks!

Not necessarily, the radio that Mike recommends with his ROM is the same radio that is coming with the OTA update from T-Mobile.
I would check to see what your RIL is, I bet it is 162 and you may want to change it to 169 and see if that helps first.
Wouldn't using non-matching ril file cause problems? Can you post the command to check what ril you have for reference please?

Mike's ROM by default has RIL 169 but when it runs the script to see if your phone is t-Mobile 4G or not it changes the RIL to 162 if it is a t-mobile 4G and leaves it at 169 if it is not a t-mobile 4G.
To check to see what RIL you have run getprop "gsm.version.ril-impl" in Terminal Emulator or adb shell and it will print out the RIL version!
Nice. I have 162 but have a tmous 4G sensation. I have the radio in his op so is it ok to run that radio with the 169 ril?

Yes it is, the default RIL in his ROM is 169 and when it senses you have a T-Mobile 4G is switches it to RIL 162. I ran 162 for a while then switched to 169 and am trying it out today.
Cool. Thanks. Will try as well

You having problems with the data signal after making ROOT and S-OFF???

Researching and reading some homeowner concerns of htc sensation, I have observed that a large number of users after making root and s-off a large majority are having problems with the responsiveness of the data signal on the phone, even do not know that usually this problem if the custom ROM or made S-OFF, so if we know the problem is there, if you have the same problem post your complaints here.
people forget to match up radio versions and corresponding rils. i haven't had any issues with the properly matches rils/radios.

Here's what you want, but I tell you that I tried everything and still does not solve this problem, I combined the radio and RIIL and versions anyway and I have not been able to solve this problem

So your still stuck with the same problem as me? Or did you just go back to out of the box stock Rom? I was thinking of just go with the stock, since I've been having problems mainly on signal issues after I flashed arhd and I can't stand having to turn airplane mode on and off everytime to gain signal.

Root and a off don't relate to signal, but what you flash after that does. Easiest solution is to use the same radio and ril combo as was included stock, whichever ROM you're using. Newer radios can give some improvements, but also can cause issues

Wifi does not connect with new tmous update

my wifi does not connect to routers. it shows that it is on and it also shows the available connections but when i type in my password, it will not connect. i first noticed this when i was on the energy rom. thinking it was the roms fault, i then flashed an aokp rom and now i am running trickdoid and the problem still continues. any suggestions?
Update the radio or restore the radio?
Make sure you're using the 2.4GHz band. Rumor is that the 5GHz stuff doesn't work so great with this radio.

[Q] Stuck on 2g

Hey Guys,
I purchased a new One S from T-Mobile and they sent me a phone that can't connect to 4g. I know that the problem is the phone, I attempted to get a replacement phone and they shipped it but gave me an excuse saying something about fraud and sent my phone back to the warehouse before I could even get it. But yet T-Mobile doesn't mind taking my $$$
So enough of that I called HTC and they want to take a look but I'll be 7-10 days with no phone. Any solution for this problem? My phone is stock and for some odd reason won't connect to anything but 2G I checked the APN settings and dabbled with that but to no avail I even factory reset and tried other sim cards no luck.
Any advice? I think I'll end up ending it to HTC but I'm trying to fix this on my own and a last resort send it to HTC for repair.
Settings --> Mobile Network --> Network mode. Make sure it's on WCDMA preferred or GSM/WCDMA Auto.

Yeah, that doesn't work. It's an issue with the 4.0.4 update. T-Mobile has been dragging their ass on a fix for it, I'm getting my 3rd replacement for the phone I've had less than 30 days at some point this week.
There's an official thread going on T-Mobile's support site...I'd post a link but it won't let me.
My One S has the same problem. Not rooted yet. I wonder If I root it if it will fix the issue. Anyone tried that?
If you run the 2.35 ruu it'll probably fix the issue you guys are having. Pretty sure.

If the 2.35 ruu does not work is there a 1.85 ruu which we all know it works fine? Sorry, it is just very frustrating.

If you're on 4.0.4 I'm pretty sure only the 2.35 ruu will restore your phone. And I think you'll have no more issues your having. I was having issues with data and wifi when I updated via ota. Ran the ruu and haven't had any problems since.

I will give it a try. Hopefully it works. I will be rooting it too. Do u suggest to flash the ruu, see if everything works fine and then root or just root and try it later?

[[Please Help]] T-mobile HTC Sensation 4G only getting edge on GSM network

Sorry if this seems noobish but I've read all the other threads I could find & I still haven't found a fix for my phone. I'm using a T-mobile HTC sensation 4G on a GSM network outside of america. the phone is fully unlocked & compatible with the 4G bands here but I'm still only able to browse on 2G networks. The APN settings in my phone are correct & work with other phones I've tried to connect to 4G. When I received the phone it was rooted with ICS 4.03 on it. I recently updated it to CM 10.2 AOSP 4.3 Jellybean in hopes that a fix for the problem would be included in the ROM but with no luck. Does anyone know how I could resolve this problem?
