After running with TrickDroid (4.0.4) for a long time I decided to give Cyanogenmod a go.
I was only on hboot 1.13.0000, so went through a long and convoluted process to get myself up to 2.15.0000 and radio 1.11.50.05.28 - basically by RUUing back to stock ICS and then letting it upgrade the phone to the latest JB.
Anyway, cm-10.2.0-ville.zip flashed and installed fine, and most things I've checked seem ok, but I now have zero GPS signal.
Not really sure what to try next? This is my first foray away from the world of Sense. Help

I saw a post that a guy took out his SIM, then rebooted and re inserted the SIM and GPS returned.
I can't remember if it was switching to Sense or to AOSP, but I remember another GPS issue that some people fixed by downloading a GPS status app and simply using it. GPS worked fine after that. Worth a shot anyways.
Removing the sim card worked! Brilliant!

yes i flashed a rom quite a few days ago- did a wipe on everything -rom loaded everything runs find ... twisted sense 1.5 with kernel that comes with sorry for my spelling trying to figure out whats going on anyway back to the problem at hand
im having issues were i could be doing anything on my tb all of a sudden it resets to the htc loading screen im like ok just a minor thing but it is now getting on my nerves i feel like i might of done something wrong yet im very cautious on how i flash rom using rom manager and its up to date of course. so i was thinking should i change it back to stock to see if that might cure my reset woes ? or just unroot and take it back ? any suggestions are helpful
This seems to be a known issue and is related to the new radio. Did you flash that?
*** UPDATE ***
I reverted back to...
-baseband verison
1.02.00.0103_2r
-kernel ver.

-still rooted with S-on instead of S-off
Still doing the reset here and there...
yes i did flash the radio
Try reverting your radio back to stock (there is a thread in the Dev section) and see if it helps. I have been having this issue too, but it isn't bothering me enough right now to change it. Also I'm not sure if you can use the new framework with the old radio -- you may have to use an older ROM.
thats what im going to try
I have the new radio and I have never experienced resetting with any of the roms, etc. I might just be one of the lucky ones!
- thanks for rubbing it in -lol
Thats good...
i might be considering taking my tb back to get another if this doesnt work

Damn that was harsh! lol really the first thing should have been to try a different kernel. It has become known with the tb they are not all created equal. Kernels or I should say switching them can make a big difference.

Well my problem with resetting still exisits i returned to stock now
i seem to still be having this problem...
so hopped over to verizon to speak with someone about this and they
told me this was a functionality of the phone that they could send
me a replacement out but would cost me shipping and handling and also
stated if they didnt find anything wrong with it that i would have to
pay full retail !!! i was like BS *&^&&%^%^ *^%^%$&^$% well you get
the point.
i still have the same tbolt just trying to figure out what to do now was thinking of returning for another tbolt but fear
that this so called " functionality " of the phone ... any suggestions?
my phone was fine until I decided to flash the new radio. I reverted back to stock radio and I'm still getting reboots
yes same here i told verizon about my tbolt self resets like once every hour if im on it they told me it was a part of the functionality of the tbolt
My old one did that.
My old TBolt did that, kind of like resetting the Sense interface (which takes forever). I called them and talked with a really nice guy, and he explained a hard reboot should fix it (which didn't and I lost my call, and got connected with a capital B the next time around _-_)
I also was having issues with the memory card getting "wiped" (data still there, just not viewable in phone) and (the kicker) my phone would reach temperatures of 69degC while charging, while off.
That last one had them change it out right quick.
No automatic resets at all here, and I've had it on and using it most of the time throughout the LTE outage and after. No resets when on EvDO/HRPD; no resets when on LTE/eHRPD; no resets when on EvDO/eHRPD. It only resets when I tell it to!
As for the connection, well... I do get the occasional dropout on LTE. More problems tonight than most nights with that. But EvDO seems to be pretty stable as always.
i didnt have any problems during the outage since im not in a 4g lte area

Just a FYI for you, I do not have problems with reboots nor do I have most problems most say they are having, however my tb just did not like twisted sense 1.5. For me anyway I couldn't stay on it very long.
I have an idea if you want to give it a try. it will take some time and effort but on the other hand it just might save you the trouble of having to return your tb.
First, do a full wipe of data/cache, do it twice to be sure. flash BAMF, (either one don't matter). once you boot up go to settings/SD & phone storage and do a factory reset. let it reset and come back up. it will take a while to boot and you might even get errors which is ok.
Now hit the power button and reboot into recovery again wipe data/cache 3x, wipe cache 3x.
now try to install your rom. just for the heck of it at least for now stay away from twisted sense. I would use BAMF at least till you see if this solves your problem.
once you have your rom installed flash imoseyon's (SAFE) kernel.
If you do try this let me know how you make out. This has solved many issues for me in the past many times.
actually I stand corrected it was NOT twisted sense that gave me a problem it was tesla coil that I had problems with. so your choice there.

I wanted to post this as a question under the liquid smooth topic but I don't think I can because I don't have 10 responses yet?
Anyways, I just flashed this new ROM and I love it - it's super fast and awesome. But none of my networks are responding - mobile/phone call/etc. I know that for some situations you need to download a radio right?
I tried flashing these two but it still doesn't work

Did you flash the radios in recovery or in the bootloader?
I flashed in bootloader - pretty much followed the instructions:

I think I'm gonna un-root and then re-root for the time being. Having no cell access makes me a little paranoid and I kinda want to reestablish that before I go on.
Make sure you don't have the same problems when you are un-rooted and completely stock, if so it's probably time for a replacement.
I've never heard of this but if you post in Liquids forum he will try and help ya...

Phew!! Stock unrooted works fine, the networks are in place. Too bad I had to miss some fun stuff this weekend b/c I didn't have cell access lol. So I think it was definitely a radio issue...I'll probably reroot now and try again?

Yeah, root and then after each "mod" you do to the phone, check to make sure everything is working correctly. That way if it happens again at least you know what it is that is screwing it all up.
I've had my S3 for about 3-4 months or so, and I've recently been having this problem.
The day I got it I rooted it and everything was going good, battery wasn't amazing, but definitely reasonable.
After the boot loader was unlocked, I unlocked it with the EZ unlock in the Play Store.
I then loaded up Synergy r50 (nightly at the time) and everything seemed improved.
Anyways, I have since then loaded Paranoid Android, CM10, Beans, and Incubus' Jellywiz.
I went to Beans after Synergy, everything was still fine, then I loaded up Jellywiz RLS7 for a day, and it ran extremely warm and I was dropping
a percentage of my battery every 2 minutes. I nandroided back to Beans, and had the overheat and battery drain problem on that too. I wiped everything and went to Synergy (newest nightly, forgot the number) (edit: added the ktoonsez kernel after many FC's) and the problem still exists. I'm also getting horrible cell signal (not 4g, 4g is fine) at my school where it used to be perfectly fine. Anyone know what I could possibly do besides returning it? I already used Odin to go back to the latest non-leaked stock, and it's still doing it. Thank you very much.
TL;DR: After flashing multiple roms, then flashing Jellywiz, my phone runs much too hot for comfort, borderline burning, battery life goes fast, and I get next to no signal at my school.
Thanks again for any help!

Did you try to odin back to Stock, get the new OTA and maybe odin the leaked radio on top? I'd give it a try and see how it works out for you 1-2 days. People are reporting better single with the leaked radio. You flashed a lot of stuff in a very short time and you missed the latest official radio from the G7 OTA.
If you still have issues return the phone to VZW. If not DebugFS, EZ Unlock (make sure to use version 1.2 from rootzwiki) and EZ recovery again. Make a clean Nandroid and go back to your favorite ROM.
All the downloads you need can be found in droidstyle's sticky in devel.

Thank you very much! I just finished installing the OTA and I'm about to flash the leaked radio through Odin.
I'll post back in a few days or so in case this doesn't end up working or if any one else is having this issue and doesn't want to post (much like I was until I realized I can't stand the issues I was having)
Hopefully this works, thanks again!

This is actually a a merge request from their revision system and if you look carefully, the change has been merged to the CM10.1.3 branch and the release candidates too. That means that it is not in the official updates of cyanogen mod. If you got 10.1.3, you should be getting this fix in the updates, plus it's kind of old, you probably already have it.
Not sure if this fixes anything

So my wifi doesn't work.
Everytime I try to put it on, it switches off almost immediately . Sometimes I am not even able to switch it on at all. (the switch button becomes grey).
I got this phone from a friend of mine a year ago. The wifi wasn't working either back then (but I believe it had worked at some point in the beginning). When I got the phone it still had the stock rom. Then I flashed some custom roms, mostly CM (gingerbread, ICS). That didn't do any good for my wifi. So I downgraded my hboot and s-offed my phone. Also flashed a new radio, but that didn't help either.
I am slowly beginning to think that it's a hardware issue. But today, ever since a year, my wifi turned on and I was connected for 10 minutes! Then I rebooted my phone to see if it would work again, but unfortunately it didn't.
I read something about flashing a new kernel to fix your wifi, could that do the trick?
Also I read a lot about doing clean rom installs to fix your wifi (so wipe all partitions etc), tried that, didn't work.
Info about my phone:
Android 4.2.2
CyanogenMod 10.1 -20130808 -unofficial-saga
kernel version: 3.0.84-g0263617
radio (baseband version): 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_m
Hboot:
saga put ship s-off RL
hboot 6.98.1002
radio: 3822.10.08.04_m
I hope there are some things I have overlooked, because it would be so great if wifi could be fixed.
Thanks in advance!
flash the latest kernel by flinny, it should resolve the wifi issue,
Clean install is preferred when u change ROMS.
