[Q] Not receiving calls. How can I restore stock radio? - HTC Inspire 4G

Hi, I've been fighting this problem for about a month. I'm certainly really frustrated.
I detected some time ago that, when someone tries to make a voice call yo my number, my phone seems not to receive the call (or the sequence required for the phone app to show the incomming call is broken at some point, beginning at the radio fw). I've tried many things, like flashing other radios, installing rils, reinstalling the rom (I'm using Revolution HD 7.0.4). The problem still happends every time.
Of course the first step I took was make a complaint to the phone company (Movistar Argentina); they make several tests, and finally change the sim card for a new one. Same as before.
The sim card and the company service seems to work fine, since when I put the same sim card in another phone, I had no problem to receive calls.
I thought full stock restore may be helpful, but I really don't know how to do that since I suspect not everything is placed back as it was OTB. For instance, I don't know how can be the radio+ril can be restored to factory defaults.
Any suggestions will be very appreciated.
Best regards,
Dario

If you can find access to the ruu for your region then you can just run that and it will restore everything to default. I'm not sure if since you are in a different country that you need a different ruu. If you can use the the American 2.47.502.7, I can provide a link. Also have you tried backing up just stuff you need from your sd card and wiping it. Sometimes there can be a file there that will cause issues.

Thanks four your reply.
I actually used the stock rom (I bought the device in America) for several months until change to Revolution ROM, so if you can provide me with a link I'll be grateful. I tried downloading the update from HTC official site, but seems to be an upgrade only application, I cant really tell. It ended up stopping with an error code.
I'll try also completely formatting the sd card.

Here you go. Make sure to install HTC sync on pc and leave it running in background. Then just plug in phone and run from pc
Ruu US 2.47.502.7

Thanks a lot, start downloading right now.
I've just installed Revolution 6.3.3, since I read in some other post that it comes with a RIL, and there's a suggestion about which radio version to use with it. So, after formatting every partition, sd card included, I flashed the proper radio and RHD. For the moment, it seems the phone is working fine, but can't be sure about ir since previously it also had some "god moments". Anyway, I'll keep watching how it behaves for a couple of days.
As a measure of last resort I'll install the stock rom Gizmoe kindly provided.
Thanks again, I'll report back with the results!

So far, so good

After a while, even with a clean RHD 6.3.3 installation, I'm not receiving calls again.
I'm able to make a call, receive sms, use data connection (wifi and 3g), pretty much everything but receive a voice call.
Don't really what to do anymore, I'm considering a hw problem now...

Have you tried reversing to s on. Wiping SD card and then running the ruu I provided. If it still happens with complete stock then I would agree its a hardware or sim card issue.

Ok I've just reversed to s-on with aahk-13012012. The scripts automatically downloaded HTC ATT stock rom, and it seems to be the same version you provided me earlier.
Then, updated to the latest rom published in HTC support site.
Again, as under a clean RHD rom, the first couple of hours everything works fine. So I'm gonna test it every day for 3 days in a row and see what happends.
Thanks again!

Nope, sadly not so many hours later, same problem as before.
I'm going back to RHD, s-off and root, an run an app I found in this forum that allows me to check some system logs. I'm interesting in monitoring the radio log.

Ask your carrier for a new sim. They should just give you one. That's what I would try next.

Actually, before trying flashing new roms or downgrading to previous versions, I asked for a new simcard. I'm using the new one now for about a week

Ok. I assume you have tried different radios and even probably switched when ruu was flashed.

Yes, I've tried many radios and rils.
I can't really tell when exactly the incomming calls problem started, but since the last time I remember not having the problem, I changed the service provider and tried installing AOSP (aospX-1.0.0-BR4-DHD), with the corresponding radio and ril. I didn't liked it, so I went back to RHD (again, with the proper radio). That's why I thought reversing to stock sw could reverse the problems, if any of them were caused by rom/radio installations.

Now I'm back to RHD 7.0.3, and don't really thing flashing some other radio will help at all, but is there some recommendation about it I'll certainly consider it.
As allways, I'm receiving calls again. That could last for several hours.
It would be very useful if there is any script or app to debug real-time events related to incomming calls, so I can figure out what is really happening.
Thanks in advance, once again

Yeah it seems something in the hardware is malfunctioning. You have ruled out the software.

Thanks for all your help!

Something strange (at least for me) happend.. Before flashing back RHD, I formatted all partitions (even made a new sd partition and formatted it). So, as far as I know, that completely wipes every peace of data.
But... my home wireless connected automatically!! no need to enter password or select it from the list of available wifi networks. Don't know where that configurations are stored, but it seems something is not being wiped up as I expected...

Having radio problems

After flashing CM9 on my nexus s GSM, I no longer have any data connection or any connection at all for that matter, it detects that there are radios around but I cannot connect to any of them.
I have checked I still have the correct IMEI, and I have tried going to stock 4.0.3 and slim ICS, and 2 different radio drivers to no avail.. Also wi-fi works fine.
Can anyone suggest what I should do next?
edit: even tried going back to gingerbread... still no luck
Is there no advice anyone can give? I've tried so many things and i've run out of ideas..

Did you try to flash the latest factory image (4.0.4) downloaded from Google? It includes the radio, and after flashing it you would have your phone as if you bought it just now.
heres the different radio http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116884 or maybe the problem was the carrier??
try to figure out whats the problem?? or maybe you broke your signal hardware..
or maybe the problem was on the carrier??

CHeck your APN settings under settings>More>Mobile Networks and create a new APN unique to your own carrier. also, check if you can still make calls
I have this problem also when flashing cm7 months ago..
Solved it by flashing different radio..

Turns out somehow my phone corrupted my sim card after I flashed CM9, got a replacement, waited a day for three to activate the sim and it's all sorted now. Thanks guys

[Q] Sensation cant connect to mobile data

Hey all,,,I have a tmo sensation and have opensensation currently installed....the thing doesnt want to connect to mobile data...keeps showing the H then disconnects and repeats. Just happened recently and has been working fine on official nightly builds.
been searching around and seen others with the same issue but havent seen a fix for it
apn is correct
anyone have any idea's?
Found an answer to this in another thread. Apparently its a problem with the audio routing fix in CM roms that causes data issues in some devices.
I flashed: http://d-h.st/RFY this and it data is back to normal.
Did you flash that after wipe or over the top? I just wiped and flashed and am continuing to get the flashing data. Restoring back to Sense works and is an option, but the oddest thing for me was that this issue occurred like over night, without any installation on my part.

I actually flashed the superwipe.zip I had on my sd from a different rom I had installed then flashed that rom from the link and it worked great.
I think the superwipe was in the elegencia rom thread in development.
gotcha, ARHD also has the Superwipe.zip Thanks for the tip.

HTC 4g (GLACIER) cyanogen 7.20 stable wifi turns off

Hi guys, i have a problem here, i followed this guide http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Glacier:_Full_Update_Guide everything went smooth
i had to dowgrade as the page says as it had already gingerbread, every step went smooth, then i booted and everything apparently fine, except when i turn on my wifi it autoshuts down after some seconds (the wifi not the phone).
tried 7.2 latest nightly and same thing.
please help
this is a tmobile unit
htc mytouch 4g (aka glacier right?)
note: backed up as directed but upon restore i just get an md5 error so no going back
currently this info is shoing:
android version 2.3.7
baseband 12.28b.60.14eU_26.03.02.26_M
kernel 2.6.35.14 cyanogenmod-g295e82f
mod version cyanogenmod 7.20120909-nightly-glacier
Same problem here. I'm also using a CM7 nightly.
Under Wifi Advanced settings, its showing MAC address as unavailable. So far I've tried a "wifi fixer" on the android market, and I opened up the phone to check the two cables for Wifi.
Try reflashing probably a bad download or u can flash a new Rom such has android revolution or insert coin I recommend these Rom because they gingerbread an are most stable for glacier an really smooth

Be sure you're doing a complete wipe before flashing a ROM. Check out 4EXT recovery, as it has an option for wiping all partitions.

Thanyou, i think I have done wipe, as instructed on link, I followed exactly, maybe is not the rom as I have tried at least 3 cm versions, and 2 non cyanm, I returned to stock (downgrade version, 2.2) and still no luck, but I havnt tried the one it had, stock, 2.3, I have reflashed many times, this is a used phone, that I am unlocking for a friend, and while I was on it he asked for a rom, he got this cheap, and was not using it because of carrier lock, but I actually never checked if wifi was working before flashing it, so probably its just broken and that is why he got it so cheap lol (like 40 bucks) wil trry ota 2.3 and the others you guys suggested, just to exhaust possibilities,, but not with much hope, ty both for taking the time to answer

in my case I can't go to advanced, as it is only available when wifi is on, and I'm not fast enough to setup a network before out turns off, I cheeked someone with same problem on tmobile forums, no root, no flash,.regular ota, support said that if just factoiry reset with no sd, and before installing anything then its phone problem and needs to be replaced,
Any idea how to fix this piece of wifi hardware, are there available spare wifi chips or something? (i obviously can't return to tmobile a is used , phone from a foreign country :$

Weird thing is that wifi tethering works fine. Also I started noticing this problem after switching back to Gingerbread from ICS. I've reflashed several times with the other luck.

[Q] Sporadic Service Problems

I have a GS2 running Cyanogemod 10.1.2 (Android 4.2.2) on AT&T. The main issue I have is that of the service for calling/texting being extremely sporadic (as in, most of the time, it either doesn't have service at all or says it has service, but is unable to do anything). I gets texts hours after the person sent them, and I miss almost all calls.
It's not just an issue of spotty service or a messed up SIM card, since I can put the card into my other phone and is works perfectly. It's also probably not a radio issue, since WiFi is unaffected and I've reflashed a few different radios a few different times.
I've also tried just restoring an old backup or two, reinstalling an older version of Cyanogemod, and messing with the APN's (which, as far as I've been able to find online, are at the correct settings).
Rebooting and turning off WiFi sometimes seem to help, but I haven't found any consistent pattern with that.
Does anybody know what's going on?

Hi - FWIW I had this problem for a while - wasnt using that ROM but i had to try a few different radios until i found one that worked. I would suggest trial and error. I would tell you which one Ended up working but my screen is broken... i do remember UCMC1 worked for me, but i think another one gave me more bars at my house, so i stuck with that.

Well, I tried all the JB and ICS radios for the GS2 that are on the sticky (as well as some of the GB) and none of them worked. At this point, I think I'll try restoring to stock to see if that does anything.

No Sound.... AGAIN.

Ok. First off, system sounds are totally fine. Any and all music etc works. The problem comes in when making a call, its just gone. It doesn't ring or anything at all, other side hears nothing as do I. Restarts didn't fix, nor did flashing the modem. Previously a restore fixed it this time it didn't though. What could it be? Is it possibly just a software glitch? This one has me stuck since it just randomly happened, both times it just occurred for no reason.
Maybe the ear speaker is gone. Try to make a call on speaker.

It's on StraightTalk. The phone is Unlocked it had MA7 which worked fine also tried LF6 but no change at all. Tried another ST SIM as well, same issues and the SIM worked in the other phone. In fact both did. It was not on stock. It is on PAC V19.
Try radio version UCMC1. I don't think UCLF6 is supported on that version of PAC is it? I would also check your APN settings if you haven't done so already. Otherwise its probably a hardware problem.

Even if it was APN it shouldn't suddenly unset. As for modem AFAIK it should work since they get signal. I may end up just doing an ODIN to total stock then checking it. If it still doesn't work I would guess hardware but that means I now have an expensive ass brick that literally nothing has changed on and it no longer works properly.

I'm having a similar problem after I rooted my phone and installed CM10. No sound or mic on phone, Music, YouTube, Netflix doesn't play sound either but I get other system sounds like phone ring, etc.Now my phone will work if I put it on speakerphone and I can hear the call and they can hear me. Also everything works if I use Bluetooth. I'm subscribing to this thread in the hopes you can figure it out and I can try it as well.

the answer has been given repeatedly and stickied, if having issues on roms and cant figure out if its hw or sw, wipe everything and restore to stock via odin, if still having probs then its more than likely a hw problem, flashing stock w/odin is really not that hard todo on the skyrocket and the howto is also stickied

Don't be a moron. v19 is 4.1.2, it was running UXUMA7 which is 4.1.2 when the error occurred. I tried UCLF6 which is ICS but it changed nothing at all. I also reflashed UXUMA7 to no effect. I know what I am doing, I know what I am talking about but since this isn't a phone that I personally use nor update all the time (ie I don't keep up on things for the Skyrocket) I dunno if there is a bug that causes this or what. That is why I posted, I figured if it was a glitch people here would know and could give me a clue. Its fine now though I flashed it to stock and fixed it.

Long story short, that didn't necessarily work in my case so I have some other issue. Flashed back to stock and sound works but the phone starts freezing after the first time I reboot, turn off the phone, or swap in a new battery.
