[Q] Can't receive text messages on any custom rom?? - T-Mobile LG G2x

Ok guys, I don't even know where to begin. I'm a noob to flashing roms and such. I have a G2X and I was so frustrated by the lag and glitchiness of the phone. So i rooted my phone through superoneclick and i flashed CM 7.2. I could receive texts and send texts no problem until i flashed an ICS rom. The first one i flashed was EB bld 5.5 and i noticed that people tried to text me but i couldnt receive any. I can send texts but i cant receive them. I went through tons and tons of forums and other sites but i couldnt find a solution. Does anyone know y i cant receive texts?

Reflash? If issue consists then try other ics roms

Check your APN settings. Sometimes when I flash a new ROM my SIM card will put most of the info in but may leave out the network password it something.
You can usually get your apn settings from your service providers website. Or somebody here will provide them? Who is your cellular company?

Remember to use G2X scrubber or Nullifier before flashing a new ROM. Then flash your Gapps and reboot. Then just leave your phone alone for 10 minutes or so. Also, try calling someone. If you can't hear the call audio, its probably a baseband issue. The G2X development forums have some very great guides.

I have this exact same problem. For some reason I cannot receive sms on CM 7.2 based roms or any ICS roms. However it works when I use the MIUI 2.2.24 rom with the trinity ELP kernel by Morific. Very odd. Does anybody have any ideas I've been having this problem for a couple of months now and I'm running out of ideas. My baseband is the latest Mar 11 2012 one and i'm with Mobilicity (in Canada). Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

It's a problem with cm 7.2 based kernels. I submitted a catlog to the cm team but only a few phones are having this problem. The only thing I've found that works is flashing one of morifc's older kernels on top of cm 7 nothing I've tried works on ics roms. Also if you have wifi calling enabled it's strange but you should receive text messages.

Yeah, I was getting sick of the MIUI rom (and it was being weird) so I followed your advice and flashed Cyanogenmod 7.2 with a trinity kernel and all is well now. It is a shame that it won't work with ICS, hopefully that O2X leak will fix this issue. Also, the tmobile wifi calling app doesn't work since i'm on a different provider (Mobilicity). I was wondering if there is another app that is equivalent or if I could use the wifi calling app with Mobilicity somehow?

I don't know of any other apps that work like wifi calling and I'm pretty sure the tmobile wifi calling app only works with a tmobile network. I was hoping the cm team would have looked into this by now I submitted the ticket awhile ago and it got labeled as an apn issue which it clearly isn't. It's something in the kernel disregarding the sms notification.

Wi-fi Calling And CM7 Based ROMs

What's the deal with wi-fi calling working sporadically with CM7 based ROMS? Or...am I the only one experiencing this? Maybe 1/5th of the time I'm connected to wifi will it work. It's not my router or lan (I know what I'm doing in that realm) +my wife's G2X was working the whole time she had the unmolested phone from T-Mobile. Even after I flashed hers with a 2.3.3 (two days ago) it's worked as it should.
Bump d bump.
I'm not using CM7, but it's happening to me, too. From what I've read over the last few days, this is more of a hardware issue than a ROM issue. For me my 4G often stays on while the wifi is enabled. My wife has a G2x running the same kernel and ROM as mine, and hers has no problems. It's really annoying.
You're not using a CM7 derivitive and you're having issues? Odd. I've only experienced it on CM7 based ROMs. Every 2.3.3/ota/stock based ROM connects with nary a problem.

Have you tried using one of the kangs ..there's fitsnuglys and rustys ... I pretty much use fits' kangs, he uses only certain commits in his kangs and from what I understand rustys contain all off the commits up to date... I've never really had a problem with wifi calling and I use it a lot at work...
I haven't. This is my 1st smartphone. 1st time rooting/custom rom'ing and the "kang" sounded too scarey! Might have to give it try though, i miss sixaxis.
Thanks for the tip.
I've had similar problems where the 4G icon stays on with the Wifi and wifi calling enabled along with not being able to get mms to send or receive but sms works fine with wifi calling enabled. I also had the mms problem on the rooted tweaked OTA rom.

I've had some of the same problems in the past... I've also had mms work over wifi no problem but I've flashed slow many I can't remember which one it was.. LOL.. I really have to start keeping track... IMHO my phone functions better for me when I run a custom rom than a stock .. wifi calling is a must for me because my garage gives me horrible reception and I can't be missing customers calls and I usually only have that problem when running a stock rom...

It works! Well, it worked all night and into the morning. Have never had that with any other CM7 ROM. I wonder what Fits' kang does differently. Any "gotcha's" I need to know about?

[Q] Unable to receive sms on some roms

Ok, this is a replacement g2x from tmobile, my first one didnt have this problem. The only roms that im able to receive sms on is eaglesblood or a 2.3.3 rom. Every other rom and i can only send, not receive. Any idea what could be causing this?
-I have checked my apn..its the same as in the eb rom when it is working.
-Getril says my ril is updated and its 21e.
-On tmobile and have july 15 baseband
You use the same method to flash the rom correct?

I tried the til that came with the rom . Then switched using getril when it wasn't working.
I have the same issue and have tried many things with no luck the only person I have seen with this issue and a resoultion is they swaped phones under warranty I think I might see if I can get mine changed out again already had one due to reboots why not try again if this fixes the problem will report back
This my second g2x , first one didn't have this problem..first one also had older baseband.

just noticed on eb cm7, fauxs beta 49 kernel i cant recieve sms, but with trinity elp kernel i can. So what changed? I think I should be able to receive texts on fauxs 48 kernel, will test later.
I stopped by tmobile and picked up a new sim card. No luck thought I would give it a shot
I think it is the older sim cards you have to look for but I have ordered a replacement phone and as soon as I get it I will flash and see if there is a difference

What did you tell tmobile to get a replacement?
I've had the same problem. I cant receive texts on any ics rom. But there is one thing I noticed, i couldn't receive texts on mobile data, only on wifi and only when wifi calling was turned on. Maybe this info can help us get to the bottom of this issue
I just told them the normal problems that the g2x has shutting off reboots the usual. On a positive note got my replacement yesterday and can say I happily sent this using AOKP ICE CREAM SANDWICH. I know now for a fact not all these phones are created equal just keep sending them back till you get a good one. Text message works great now from very smooth and fast just have to try and get video play back working a little better

not trying to hijack the thread, but no need to make another one about a similar problem.
im running weapon on my g2x and mms aren't sending and receiving. it work one time last night after i sent a pic to my phone first, then my sending pics finally went out. some were sitting for 2 weeks.
any ideas on a fix to send and receive without problems?

THANKS! I've been searching left and right for solutions. I've tried CM7 the 3/15/2012 version and I've tried older versions, tried Eagle Blood, etc. and none could receive text messages, but sending worked fine. Could receive fine in the stock ROM. Was driving me nuts.
Thanks to you I tried the Trinity ELP kernel and it's working beautifully now in CM7. Now to figure out why changing APN settings and scanning for mobile networks is so screwy.... changing settings to Simple Mobile is so touchy.

[Q] Voicemail Notification not working - Videotron - EB AOSP ICS 4.0.4 Bld 3

Hey guys,
I've been searching for almost a week and can't seem to find any info on this.
I have the latest build (3) of EaglesBlood AOSP ISC 4.0.4. Everything pretty much works now except the voicemail notifications.
I can call VM, programmed all in the settings, that's all good. But when I get messages, I don't get the notification.
My provider is Videotron (Vidéotron) and thinking could the french accent causing this? When it detects the provider, it doesn't show the 'é'...
Not sure what to do at this point. I get the missed call icon, I can check every time I get that but it's more annoying than anything.
As we are rare here prople with Videotron, it might be hard to get an answer...
Any help would be appreciated.
Any solutions?
Thanks
I dont know if there are no answers cause there are so few people with those carriers or, cause there are so few people that actually T-Mobile VM still... I use Google Voice and I know a bunch of my friends do as well.... Hopefully someone will come your guys way soon.
Well now I'm running EaglesBlood™ Gingerbread [CM 2.3.7] and everything works in that one. I'm also missing the 'é' in Videotron but that doesn't seem to matter in this ROM.
I'll wait until EB AOSP ICS 4.0.4 it's fully release (with the Tegra2 drivers and all if that ever happens) before switching back as I found that it was faster running certain apps than my GB ROM.
I have to say I did prefer ICS look and feel and how it runs and manages apps but those were the 2 biggest annoyances for me. (VM Notifications and no Vid Cam) That's why I downgraded to GB.
So there never was a solution to this? I'm with Videotron too. I just installed Hellfire Sandwich for the first time and I have a similar problem: I don't hear anything when I call my voicemail and I don't receive message notifications.
I love ICS... and everything else works on the phone. It would suck that I'd have to go back just because of this bug...
I switched to cm7 to fix it but I think it has something to do with the carrier list or something
Btw does any of you still have a stock froyo videotron back up? I kinda lost mine

I had one... but I tried to flash it and it failed. I think it's corrupted.
It really sucks about the phone part of HFS... because the rest works so well! But yeah, I guess I'll have to go back down to Gingerbread... and wait another million years for a miracle mod that would actually work.

Well, I went with Hellfire Phoenix 2.3 and everything now works fine. There go my dreams of ICS... I wonder if I'll ever have a working version running on my 2X or if I'll buy a new phone before that. I don't think I can do more than 2 years with the same phone... and this one is already more than a year old...

Data on CM9/CM10

Anybody Know how can i get back my 4g data? I have CM10 and it was working good for about one hr and now my data is gone, any idea?
That is apparently a known problem with the CM roms on this phone. Probably the only reason I haven't flashed it yet. Sorry.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
Yeah I think I'm gonna switch to Synergy ROM because all CM9/CM10 based roms has the same problem e.g Paranoid and AOKP, also I have problems sending MMS I don't know if its just me or ROM problem
I've been watching the forums for all the AOSP roms and mms seems to be a fairly consistent problem that I don't want to deal with. That and I need my camera to be fully functional for work. I swear by CyanogenMod and I am waiting patiently for a build for this phone.

I've been running cm10 since the first preview as my daily driver. There are some issues, to be sure, but I'm living with them. 4G data should be working just fine (just as good as stock, in my experience). It's 3G data is very erratic: sometimes it'll cut out altogether and sometimes it'll fluctuate wildly between zero bars and full bars (or from -100 to -250db). This is a known issue regarding the RIL and will hopefully get fixed sooner than later.
MMS is also a know issue. You should be able to receive MMS, but sending MMS only works once after installing the rom. Once you reboot, it no longer works.
The camera is now working just fine (stills and videos), though there may still be a hiccup or two. I use the camera for Facebook, Foursquare, etc without issue now on cm10.
Other than that, the rom is very solid. Jellybean is silky smooth, Google Now & Voice Search is working good (though after a reboot I have to make a phone call to get voice search to work again). GPS is absolutely quick to lock on and without issue. The statusbar is much more clean on cm10 (jellybean) than on stock Touchwiz (cluttered mess with unnecessary icons).
Anyway, back to your issue with data. If you're not getting any data whatsoever, either you did something wrong or you need to do a fix. You can try the Phone Info app from the play store and select LTE/CMDA, which will usually fix the no data problem. You need to be careful though because you don't want to lose your IMEI (although there seems to be a fix now).
Download phone info from the market and select cdma/lte, 4g fixed

I've been doing that and it works for few time and again it drops the 4g then I just get 1x icon or anything .
I would like to use cm10 is pretty good and smooth but I have too much problems with my 4G everything else works good.

[Q] miui

I installed miui on my sprint galaxy nexus which works great with the exception of using handscent sms,when I send mms using handscent or any other mms app the photo I try to send just vanishes without a trace on miui! it will send regular text though, the crazy part to this is if I use the stock 4.1.1 rom running the fh05 radio my factory mms works!i flashed the fh05 radio on several other roms and the mms still wont work unless I use handscent, since I bought my sprint nexus the mms has never once worked unless I use an app of some kind,i have used several different roms and never had a problem using mms apps such as go sms pro,go sms for some reason after an update no longer works at all on my phone sending mms so I bought handscent,,i love the miui and its my rom of choice but do to the issue of sprint and mms I cant use the rom,ive tried apn settings which did no good,what can I do to use an app such as handscent on miui so I can send mms?im not actually a noob at working with phones but im new to this board,
No one must have had any idea how to fix the above problem.I flashes CyanogenMod 10.1.3 stable and I really liked this ROM! Great work guys! I just installed the lean kernel to go along with the cyanogenmod and I had to share my results! I tested my phone using quadrant and antutu before and after the lean kernel was installed and my phone rated at the top of the list from being 2nd from the bottom! The only setting I changed in the new kernel was the governed to interactivex.I have 2 of these phones set up exactly alike except the kernel.I'll. Post the battery life changes after I compare them as is with no voltage changes as of yet! Thanks again for such an awesome ROM from the cyanogenmod team! I also wish to thank the makers of the lean kernel and the guys who run this board! If it wasn't for xda my phone wouldn't be rockin like it is today!!
