[Help] HTC One S stuck on EDGE after S-offing - HTC One S

I seem to have somehow messed up my HTC One S's radio while S-off'ing my phone: its now stuck on EDGE. I followed all the steps exactly, but after completing everything, I noticed that my phone wouldn't connect to 3G/UMTS anymore. I know that it isn't a hardware problem as it can occasionally latch onto a 3G signal, but everytime it did, it would have full bars, then the strength would change to 0 dBm and 99 asu, where it would then proceed to switch over to EDGE and signal strength would return to normal.
So I ended up reflashing my ROM, relocking my bootloader, RUU-ing my phone, S-on'ing my phone, trying multiple different RUUs... and nothing works.
Also, there's nothing wrong with my network, as my brother with a separate phone on the same network has no problems. I've even tried his SIM card, but that also gets placed only on EDGE.
Does anyone have any insight on what is wrong with my phone?
Edit: attached the logcat to the OP, and this is when I put my phone on 3G only mode: connects to UMTS:3, however cannot get a data connection, then disconnects and loses the signal.

Yea i had this problem to with cm 10.1 aamd did everything trying to fix and yesterday i flashed pacman room and 3g and 4g works. You can try flashing that Rom.

Thanks for the reply, I've just tried it your suggesting, but unfortunately it's still not working
I guess I'll just leave my phone to run by itself for a while, and hope that it 'clicks' and 3G comes back like what the person in the other thread said happened for him/her.

You check to see if your provider is doing maintenence or if there is an outage?

My brother is on the same network, but he has full 3G signal on his phone, so there definitely is no outage.

Are you sure you haven't toggled the network data off under the quick settings panel?
Regards,
Opentang

I'm not quite sure how if data is enabled or not would affect it, as my phone can't even connect to the 3G network. It can, however, get data on the 2G network.

I have just been able to get around to a computer, and have grabbed a logcat of what happens when I switch my phone to 3G only mode and it just disconnects itself from the network (i.e. goes into UNKNOWN:0 mode)
If anyone could look through it and see what could possibly be wrong with my phone, it would be highly appreciated.
The main error I can see myself is the:
Code:
[main] qcril_qmi_voice_nas_control_convert_radio_tech_to_radio_tech_family: invalid radio tech = 0
But then I'm not exactly literate at logcat.
Thank you in advance to anyone who could at least look through it and help me out at least a little bit here. (Yes, it's a .rar file as the file size exceeded the upload size limit)

Tried using the radio installer in the Development section: it changes the radio but doesn't fix the problem. Unless someone has a radio.img and some instructions on how to flash it?
Edit: okay, managed to grab a radio.img from the Sense Radio Installer. But I can't install it through fastboot flash radio radio.img even when I'm s-off'd. But a quick question on this: would flashing the radio like this affect CM?

Wow you got a interesting problem. You shouldn't have a problem using fastboot to flash a radio. What error does it give you?
It may or may not effect your phone if you're using CM10. Hardware wise the phone uses the radio installed to it. Software wise in CM10 it doesn't so there can be an effect. But since you've done several RUU's and I assume it still not working on the stock sense rom you can rule that out.
The cover on the bottom of the phone is where the cell antenna's are any chance you dropped your phone or the bottom took an impact?
Dial *#*#4636#*#* and select phone info. Then scroll down a little bit so we can't see your phone number & imei and take a screen shot. Post that here and let's see what it says. Try to take one with WCDMA preferred and WCDMA only.
Also, can you tell us what country and phone provider you have? Have you checked with your provider to see if there are any issues with your account? Did you buy the phone second hand (ebay or from someone else) or from a cell phone store?

Lol, wtf are you telling him to post his phone number and imei for?

The error I get when I try to flash the radio is:
Code:
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
However, when I flash an RUU, the radio version does change, so I'm not sure what's going on there.
As for the screenshots, the first pic is the WCDMA preferred, the second is the WCDMA only, where it has the inital connection to the 3G network, and the third and last one is after it errors out on WCDMA only (gives unknown).
I bought this phone brand new and imported from overseas from an only cell phone store because the S4 version doesn't exist where I live, so as such claiming warranty isn't exactly going to work, hence I'm seeking help like a madman. My phone can still operate the 3G, as it can connect to the network at all, but then it drops the signal and errors. I'm on amaysim in Australia, which operates off the Optus network over here, but there isn't anything wrong with my account, as my SIM card in my brother's phone can get 3G.
On another note: can you understand what's going on in my logcat? or if not, know anyone who can? It might have some information as to how my phone is stuffing up.

I didn't have a detail read of your posts, least look at the logcats. So I'm guessing. I'd put money this is a radio firmware issue. I think if you install this 'RUU' ( radio firmware + config ) it will work http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2157841 - some nitty gritty examples on page4.
I had a similar problem after going S-OFF, it triggered a mistake I made some days or weeks earlier messing around with firmware -> no radio at all. I also noticed only 3G on Optus (using an Amaysim ) until I updated my baseband.

Did you figure anything else out? Because I am suffering from the same problem unfortunately :/ I've already tried flashing different firmware and radios

Well, I tried your suggestion, using the codf4ther's method, outlined here:
1.) Download the OTA from here: http://fotadl.htc.com/OTA_Ville_U_I...2.35.531.7_release_306848u5s8i4b18xs094yw.zip
2.) Unzip this file (the OTA) and the internal zip file called firmware.zip
3.) Edit the android-info.txt file from the firmware.zip in Notepad++ (or similar text editor) and add "DelCache:1" at the end of the file. This might not be necessary, but I did it on mine.
4.) Create a new zip file that contains only the following files, give it a name less than 8 characters (eg newhboot.zip). rcdata.img and wcnss.img might not be necessary, but from what I've read they go along with the radio, so I included them.
android-info.txt
hboot_ville_1.14.0005_signedbyaa.nb0
radio.img
rcdata.img
wcnss.img
5.) Connect your phone to your computer. Execute the following commands in fastboot. If you get an error that says "FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)" after the "flash zip" command just do it again..
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip newhboot.zip
fastboot oem boot
6.) If you're on a Sense Jelly Bean rom your wifi will most likely be broken at this point. Find the wifi fix for JB roms in the dev forum and flash it in recovery.

But unfortunately it didn't work: it's still stuck on EDGE, although if I put it on 3G only, it can hang onto the UMTS:3 status (sometimes) for a little while, although it's 'Out of Service,' but then it would go become UNKNOWN:0. I'm guessing this method is similar to flashing a radio through an RUU (?), but considering that an RUU didn't work... yeah...

I am not sure if this is relevant but I had pretty much same behavior after 4.0.4 Update .. the phone showed 3g for a while but defaults back to Edge connection .... I do not have a solution yet....

Hey guys,
I believe I have exactly the same problem. My phone randomly disconnects from mobile data on wcdma only & gsm / wcdma auto. Apparently only GSM only is working properly. I'm not using a custom RUU.
I'd like to add that the E, H, G, 3G symbols are displayed in the status bar even ater the disconnection occurs. Furthermore it does not display my phone number in settings. I noticed that the likelihood of a disconnect depends on the area (and thus perhaps on the strength of the signal).

Seems like a slightly different problem to me, mine can't stay connected at all on 3G only, and no 3G or H icons come up cuz it can't get on 3G. However I can get on EDGE data, which is really, really slow. :/

[Q] Nexus S No SIM Error (AT&T)

Couldn't find this anywhere so I thought I would ask....
I've had the White Nexus S w/ AT&T 3G Bands for a week or so now and it's been great. Running CM7 with custom kernel and all is good. For what ever reason it started giving me the "No SIM" error. I have no idea why this just happened all of the sudden like this. Anyways, AT&T was kind enough to give me a new SIM and this issue just will not go away.
I'm out of ideas on this...
Any suggestions?

I'm not sure if this will work, but try to go back to stock, and see if it's works.
I'm a Vibrant user, so I have no idea how you would do this (least I won't until Wednesday, when I get the Nexus S 4G from Sprint), but try that, may fix your problem.

Bootloader shows the Radio version to be: I9020UCKB2
It even shows the carrier info to be ATT
What should the APN settings be for AT&T?
Borrowed the APN settings off of a Bravo here inside the store and and when I save the settings it doesn't list the APN like it should. I am saving the settings but it doesn't show after its saved.
Uuugggghhhh...
Now I'm having issues with flashing the stock radio...
Here's what the device is telling me:
"Verify Image (RADIO) ... Fail
And of course cmd prompt just shows where the write failed. I am using the radio file found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033269
I'm just simply extracting the radio img from that zip and using fastboot to apply.

Yeah I have. I received a brand new one from AT&T when this first started.
I've given up on fixing this device. I contacted Negri Electronics and asked for an RMA. This unit has to be a lemon. This will make the first time I've ever had to send a phone back. Hopefully the replacement will be a better unit.

[Q] Sensation Radio Not Working

OK, so I followed the noob guide to rooting (done it a few times before with my MT3G and G2), no problems. I flashed Hypersensation 'cause I like me some CM7 and got everything up and running.
At this point I have the 10.56.9......etc radio but I was getting some pretty serious battery drain and kristofpetho mentions its best to upgrade your radio to the latest version.
So I follow the radio version guide at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178143
and upgrade to the latest radio (I did this most likely too confidently as I hadn't had any problems up to here). Radio upgrade then on reboot I get stuck at the HTC screen. I pull the battery, wipe cache as suggested in:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1261008
Still nothing, stuck at HTC screen. So I apply nandroid backup at the point just after I flashed Hypersensation and I get boot back which is good but now my radio is off. I radio update to 1.56.9035.....etc and now my radio still won't work. I'm pretty stuck right now and I don't want to keep pulling batteries and flashing radios and screw something up.
Anyone have a suggestion?
go to dialer and type in *#*#4636#*#*
it'll bring up a menu. select phone info,
scroll down to the bottom, should be a toggle
button that says radio. hopefully it'll say radio off.
if it does, press the button, that should turn it back on.
it takes a couple seconds for it to do anything so don't
pound the button relentlessly, haha. Even if it says radio on,
try toggling it on and off.
Hopefully this will help.
Nope, nothing. When I toggle it I get the following message at GSM Disconnects:

Also; if you haven't tried it, try toggling on and off airplane mode in the wireless & network settings. Might do the job.
Yeah I initially did it through ADB and then after clearing data tried through fastboot. I MD5 checked also on every flash.
I just finished doing a superwipe and flashing Revolution HD (3.5) and reflashing the radio to 10.58
My current RIL is 2.2.0190HMQ and I'm assuming this came through Rev HD as I was trying 2.220173 and 2.220159 with the HyperSensation
Kinda stumped at this point.
Did you download the radio off of android revolutions thread or off of the radio thread?
also; arhd 3.6.7 is available now.
You probably are using an old sim card like I was. When I first rooted my sensation I thought it was ======>0 after trying several things. Got new tmobile sim that I had gotten with my phone, put it in called tmobile, activated it, and the damn thing worked fine.
When u flash through fastboot and get stuck at htc bootlogo then pull the sdcard and restart.

its a known issue with aosp ROMs that after flashing a radio u get stuck in a bootloop. u need to pull battery and sdcard. after that u need to remove the PGxxxx file off your sdcard e.g. with your PC. else it wont work.

OK yeah that's what I thought you meant. I saw that in the forums and did exactly that. I got out of the bootloop and removed the file but I still couldn't boot. So I restored a nandroid backup and ever since then my radio hasn't been able to turn on. I just activated a new sim card like someone suggested above so I'll see if that helps.

[Q] Radio Flashing Problem

Hi, I've recently installed the Android Revolution HD 6.3.1 ROM on my Inspire 4G and I'm having problems when I'm using with it another provider (Not having service when I'm in an area where it's supposed to have) so I was looking forward to a solution and noticed that I had to flash a radio also. The problem is that when I'm trying to flash the radio included in the same thread it goes well until a point where it says "FAILED Remote: not allowed". Does anyone know how to fix this or if I'm doing something wrong? Thanks a lot in advance for your help.

Where are you getting the radio download?
You can only use the radio from the ARHD OP if you are eng s-off, which most people aren't. You need to do this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19920345&postcount=5965
It sounds like you are attempting to flash using fastboot in which you will need to get eng hboot.
Iwould suggest flashing thru regular means! Go to the radio flashing forum 4 instructions

Thanks a lot for your answers, but i just found the radio file in PD98IMG.zip type and everything went fine.

Not sure why but, restarting your phone a couple times after installing radios/RIls seems to resolve many issues.... of course it could be smoke & Mirrors (old Parlor Trick!) heh, heh...

[Q] Radio problem?

Hey guys,
I'm looking for a little help here. My Skyrocket seems to be having radio/modem issues.
Instead of having a symbol that displays cell signal, I have a circle with a line through it. This is true with or without a working SIM inserted. For baseband version it says "unknown".
I've tried flashing to stock and that didn't seem to make a difference. I got this phone second hand so I don't know if the previous owner tried to flash an incompatible rom and borked up the radio firmware possibly?
Any thoughts about what I can try?
That all depends on which method and tar you used. Some tars dont come with the radio. and with the wrong radio on a rom you will get a RIL mismatch and no signal

So I'm unsure how it got to its current state. (meaning the circle with a line through it) To return to stock I used the K0nane tar that's in the sticky in the dev section. I don't know if that has a radio in it or not but flashing that didn't seem to change things.

That doesn't have a radio in it. Look in your "about phone" and tell me what your baseband and android version says.
After that I will probably say to flash the sammobile tar...
Also, Did you have the correct plan added to your service when you switched phones?
baseband version = unknown

Right..
Assuming your plan has been provisioned for the new lte phone, I would flash the sammobile tar in odin
I'm going to give that a try. I suppose I'll just search for sammobile?
The SIM i'm using was provisioned for my previous Skyrocket. I ended up trading that but used the same sim in my new phone. So, I'm assuming the SIM/my account should be proivisioned for LTE since I never had AT&T change anything on their end.
And just to clarify, this doesn't really seem to be a "no service" type problem since its as if the radio isn't even recognized by the hardware.

Lol, I appreciate the helpful info in your reply. Just so you know, I don't seem to be having the same issue as any other post that I've seen. Unlike the other posts I've read, I don't have "no sim" or no signal, or no LTE. My problem almost seems like an issue with the SIM slot itself. I think I can rule that out because I've actually replaced the SIM slot with a known good SIM slot. The other reason I think I can rule this out is because I am unable to access the radio related content from within the service menu. Unfortunately I don't think there will be a :oof:: that fixes what I have going on. (I wouldn't mind being wrong on this)
So I flashed the sammobile tar (multiple times) but no luck. The baseband version still reports as "unknown". What's more, my phone reboots after about 15 or 20 seconds. Very odd. Any other thoughts on things to try?

dude life got BUSY all of a sudden. I come back, u got team waffle, u traded in our wip rom for an aokp t989 port, and a whole bunch of other stuff poppin off (ucle2). WTH lol, I wish I coulda been apart of at least a lil of it.
Flash the stock rom and radio and radio then dial #*2263# and click automatic. Then wait a minute or so and see if it goes back to showing the bars.
Sent from my Skyrocket 4G LTE using XDA Premium
I'm going to try the multiple suggestions I got and report back. I'm also attaching the "screen shots"
Hopefully the attachments are here
I flashed EFSFix through CWM and then SAMMOBILE tar through ODIN. No luck, but ODIN did take about twice as long as it did the first time I tried flashing the sam .tar. Same symptoms, circle with a line through it and phone reboots itself after about 20 seconds. The baseband version still reports as "unknown".
I flashed back to stock through ODIN, flashed CWM with ODIN, and then flashed EFSFix again. Same exact results as the first time.
Next I flashed back to stock using ODIN, and flashed UCLE2 ROM through ODIN. Flashing this causes the reboot issue to go away, but the radio issue remains. (I thought to try the UCLE2 ROM because that's what was loaded when I first received the phone and the phone wasn't rebooting itself then)

[Q] - CM10 EDGE Only

Hey Guys! I recently picked up the HOX after three solid years on the Captivate. The rooting/flashing experience has been more difficult thus far but the device is pretty friggin' sweet. I unlocked and rooted with minimal issues and went to the latest CM10 nightly out of the gate. No issues were encountered at least during boot up. Once up and running however, the only network available is EDGE. I searched around and found posts in other device forums stating this is due to corrupt/missing IMEI. Did not see anything about this for the dual core HOX. I checked the ATT APN details and they matched what people were posting around. The IMEI is correct in the about phone->status info. Available networks shows ATT and US only. If I try to manually select ATT, it states it cannot reach this network at this time. So it appears I am lost at the moment. Should I reflash CM10? or start over at stock? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
do you have at&t branded evita? what radio, hboot and base is on your phone?

Yes, it is AT&T branded. This is the info listed on the bootscreen:
HBOOT - 1.14.0002
RADIO - 0.19as.32.09.11_2
About phone lists the Baseband as: 0.19as.32.09.11_2_10.105.32.25L

i have same. i see ups and downs from build to build and rom to rom sometimes specially lately with 4.2.x. usually i toggle airplane mode and it fixes the problem for awhile, but i've never been stuck on edge unless it was a build my phone really didn't like. what gapps are you using? are you using stock kernel? are you s-off?

I flashed a gapps-jb-20121212-signed version. Stock CM kernel and left it s-on. The instructions I was following did not mention adjusting this, so I left it alone. Would it be a potential starting point you think? I tried the airplane mode after each reboot, but EDGE only sadly. I tried different APNs, but again EDGE only.

Done. Still no joy though. It did take several minutes before it found a network but still living on EDGE.
well, by now i'd say try another rom. or ruu back to stock and see if your phone has issues. or you might need a new sim.
I don't really have a solution for you but you're not alone. I was having a lot of issues with my phone dropping its data or telling me there's not SIM in it.

Understood. I think I'll RUU back to stock. Just to be clear, I came from 2.20 firmware. Do I need to fallback to the same version coming from CM10? Or can I use 1.85?
Found a thread on RUUs, looks like it recommends staying at your version minimum. Grabbed a copy of the 2.20 RUU but my comp won't even run the thing. Locks the joint up before it even prompts for step 1. Bad download maybe?
it takes awhile for ruu to load. i use winxp and don't bog my computer down with crap like "most" people.
those are the download links and md5 sums for 1.85 and 2.20

Turned out the issue was hard drive space. Dumped a buncha old albums onto an external drive and the RUU completed its run successfully. Sadly there was no change in the issue. The device remains on EDGE and I'm stuck with crummy Sense. Very deflating.
if you have an at&t evita and you are on at&t i think your problem is your sim card.
I'll attempt to get a new sim tomorrow. The office did do a "reset" on the sim but there was no change to the service. I did notice in the boot menu the S/N is different than what is listed on the sticker located on the back of the phone. Is this usually the case? or a sign of a potential conflict?
Tried a couple of different SIM cards at the office and remained on EDGE at all times. Tried the same card in a new HOX and it gained access to the 4G network with alacrity. So issue appears to be device related. Almost as if the ATT network denies the phone access to the HS networks. Possible conflict somewhere?
