[Q] [HELP] Sensation reboots if WCDMA switched ON! - HTC Sensation

Hi,
My friends Sensation starts to reboot every time, if he switch on the WCDMA mode. GSM only works well, but if he switch to auto or WCDMA only, the phone will restart in some seconds. I didn't find any solutions or problems like this.
Thanks,
k

Did this start happening lately? I know of problems when connecting to GSM, but not to WCDMA.
What is his firmware version and radio (available in "about phone" in settings).

It started in the last 2 weeks. The phone is on stock ICS 4.0.3 rooted and HTC Dev Unlocked, region east Europe.
I red some posts about GSM problems, but no trace of WCDMA failures, thats why I started this thread.

Locking phone to gsm is unlike locking to 3G, as you lose funtionality, so we'll try avoiding this.
Did you try clean flashing a ROM to the device? (or at least the kernel)

We changed kernel - tried SebastianFM and some others - but all time we had the same failure. In the weekend we we will upload the 3.33 universal firmware, I hope that will solve all problems finally...

GSM only?
Has anyone found solution to this problem, is it fixable via software or is it a hardware issue?

[Q] HTC Sensation no signal (no service) issue

Hi ,
i am facing no service issue with HTC sensation xe with audio beats i have tried custom roms and stock roms with no luck , did factory restore , i have s-off +root.
hboot version is 1.27
baseband : 11.76A.3504.00U_24A.3504.31_M
When i turn on the device without sim card it says "Please insert sim card" and when i put sim card it says limited service and no signal with cross on signal bar .
Please tell me what should i do to fix this issue also what do you think its a hardware related issue ?
One more thing .. when i insert the sim it pops up the available networks and when i try to register on network it says Your Sim card does not allow to connect this network.
Also when i put the phone in air plane mode i can change the network mode to GSM only and WCDMA but when airplane mode is off and radio is on i can't change those settings .
if i go to testing section by pressing *#*#4636#*#* and then i go to Phone settings i see there "WCDMA preffered" as the network mode and when i try to change it from dropdown list it doesn't allow me to change .
do you think if i flash some other radio/rom it will work ?
also what other thing can i do to figure out the issue .
Thanks Much .

Hi,
It seems that your radio and firmware should work for most ROMS around.
How old is your sim card?
It might be worth trying to get a new one.

No .. Sim card reader is also fine because i can still see the sim toolkit folder and when i put the sim in device it shows me a popup to select network when i try to join it fails to register on network .
also i can dial emergency numbers.
i don't think the sim card reader is broken . phone is detecting the sim but no signal .
if there is a problem with signal IC then it should not detect any network operator to choose from .. so it seems its not a hardware issue
Thanks

Hi, have you managed to fix this issue? I have exactly the same problem with a 3 week old phone!
I called HTC to let them know and they think it is a sim problem, however, my sim is very new and is working in other phones!
I don't know what to do, I needed a new phone for school and to my dismay, it is not working!!
It was working until last week and I haven't damaged the phone at all, I am very protective over it!!!
I have read stories over flashing the phone, but I worry that I will damage it if I do so, and my parents just spent a lot of money on it for me. LOL!
My sisters' and I all got the same phone, but theirs' working fine!
Please let me know if you can help me
Thank you

I think I had the same issue (as described here). While I'm not really sure which of all the tricks tried that made it work, I'd recommend trying yet another SIM. Good luck!
Edit: After all, it doesn't look like it works. My current provider claims this HAS to be related to SIM-locking.
Edit #2: Check for IMEI blocking.

XT1225 radio problem

Hi All,
I bought XT1225 on ebay and I can't return it. So when I run on 4G network, everything works fine until I go into some places where is certainly no signal; After signal is gone, it can't turn on again. I tried to unplug the SIM and reinsert it, turn airplane mode off and on again, and nothing did the trick until reboot. I am using *#*#4636#*#* to check phone status, the GSM radio is off and I can't turn on it's radio even I clicked the button "turn on radio".
I am currently running latest version of stock rom. Anyone have idea why? and how to fix it?
after using logcat -b radio, here is the result:
D/RILJ ( 1668): [4364]> RADIO_POWER on [SUB0]
D/RILC ( 341): SOCKET RIL_SOCKET_1 REQUEST: RADIO_POWER length:16

What exactly is wrong with this radio?

Hi there,
I have the exact same problem, and actually here is what caused it.
I bought Moto Maxx XT1225 from eBay roughly a year back, it was Puerto Rico version. Since early 2015, I noticed it lags at times. I also noticed the other varients of Moto Maxx XT1225 (Indian) got Lollipop update, however PR version still on Kitkat. Researching through Xda developers, and I knew my XT1225 PR version can be flashed with Indian firmware, and gain Lollipop update, as the internals are identical. I also hoped I'd fix the lagging issue of Moto Maxx, and clean up the device wish a fresh start.
But then, after I flashed with Indian firmware for XT1225, I noticed this issue which you're experiencing now. On 4G LTE, its all good, as well as on 2G. But If you're on AUTO mode, you'd frequently switch between 3G and 4G, and the issue comes then. At random times, when the phone switches to 3G mode, radio gets turned off somehow, and the only solution is to turn it OFF and then back ON. It happens only when switched to 3G cell, and doesnt happen always. I suspect this is due to some incompatibility of Puerto Rico radio and Indian firmware of Moto Maxx XT1225.
Go to SETTINGS > ABOUT PHONE > and check SYSTEM VERSION.
My system version: 22.34.11.quark_reteu.reteuall.en.EU.amxpr (ending with PR, hence Puerto Rico)
My Baseband version: MDM9625_104438.245.02.85p QUARK_EMEA_CUST (Previously, this also had PR in the version number, but after the flashing its gone)
While I flashed, I flashed radio as well as system and all other parts, but somehow this happened. I'm waiting for Marshmallow to my phone, will probably reset it and reflash the PR version. For now, I'm forced on 2G most of the time (on WiFi at home and office), and while I drive within the city, as cell switching between 3G and 4G happens often, and then radio goes off.
I believe flashing the original firmware might fix it, you just need to figure out which version your device was on before this happened. In my case, if Marshmallow gets delayed beyond December, I'll flash PR version to check again.

Thanks for your detail reply,
I tried to flash all other version of stock rom, only India 5.0.2 stock work without having issue with baseband version "Unknown", I couldn't turn on radio as you did, the only way to make GSM radio turn on is by reboot.
Anything we could hack around to make it work?

That's right, my phone is initially from Puerto Rico, and I flashed Indian firmware 5.0.2 back in September, and has been facing this issue since then.
When I'm on 4G, and when an incoming/outgoing call happens, the phone gets switched back to 3G, and sometimes radio goes off. Once this happens, there is no cure, but to restart the phone. To prevent this from happening right after restart, I switch to 2G ONLY mode, and then reboot, and can make calls and send SMS. Like I said, I'm tethered to WiFi most of the time, and whenever I really need to browse, I force to LTE only with the USSD code *#*#4636#*#*.
I think this problem has got to do something with baseband version respective to the firmware region. Any clue as to what your phone initially had, was it Mexico, Brazil, Puerto Rico or Indian?
If I find any cure to this, or a more permanent solution, I'll post it here.

I have no idea what's the original region of this phone. I am guessing India because all other firmware baseband doesn't work.

No, I believe its got something to do with firmware compatibility with radio software. All these problems started after I flashed it with Indian firmware.
In addition to the random radio off issues, my device randomly reboots while I'm in the middle of doing something. It gets damn slow at times, and then phew, reboots. Random freezes do also occur, and I'm counting on Motorola to start rolling Marshmallow for XT1225, trying to stay calm until then, so that I can try the new firmware, and if that doesnt solve it, can downgrade to 4.4 for Puerto Rico, and install 5.0.2 OTA from there.

How do you downgrade? using fastboot or Motorola RSD lite?

I never used RSD Lite, sorry about that.
Download the firmware from the links, and I suggest you use 'Flash Firmware on Moto Maxx Using Motorola Fastboot' method.

LTE problems

Hi, after pass Soff and cm13 installed, i have problems with LTE, data is blocked and impossible to send SMS. Plane mode resolve the problem but is temporary .
I have reflash a ruu but the problem persists.
Somebody could help me?
Ruu Europe 1.56.401.70 cid htc __ 034
Thank's you and sorry for my english
I have problems with LTE on cm13 on AT&Ts network, what you have to do is switch to 3g, or H/H+
Ok for CM13 but the problem persists after the flash of a ruu. The problem may come from where? Kernel, radio, hardware ?

Well that's strange, first I would call your carrier and make sure u have 4g LTE, and see if they could do anything to fix it. It could also be where you are, you might not have 4g LTE coverage where you are.
The problem must come from the network, i am on holiday in Italy and lte works very fine. Strange.
My HTC One a9 bought from ksa didn't support Indian language.
double letters can't show smoothly
I tried in Malayalam
How to fix it
What are you in phone info>set preferred network type by typing *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer ? Thank's
