I can confirm that since taking out my sim and putting it back in , I've had no signal loss,I use a cut down sim in that moto g as well. But since then no issues .

If it's anything like mine, you'll find it all works fine again for another 3 - 5 days, then you'll be forced to pull out/re-insert the sim again.

I had randowm dropouts after OTS.
I restored to factory 4.3, cancelled the OTA then flashed CWM and installed a 4.4 rom that way.

I live in India. Got the xt1033 dual sim . is the Blur_Version.14.85.4.falcon_umtsds.AsiaRetail.en.03 meant for me... Coz that is the only one I found for Asia.

sorry mine is a XT1032 so im not sure if thats the rom you need,hopefully someone else with a XT1033 can help.

Blur_Version.14.85.4.falcon_umtsds.AsiaRetail.en.03
The ds in the filename indicates that this firmware is for dual sim.

Does that mean the XT1033's sold in Brazil and India the same... I may give this firmware a try... but i haven't seen any signal drops in the past 30 hours..if signal drops again.. I would give it a try...
BTW Nice to see such people always ready to help... Thanks quizmaniac and mokkami..

Not sure if Indian and Brazil firmware are the same.
At least the firmware versions are not the same.
Sure is that there is a separate firmware for Brazil.
Here there is a thread with different Radios.

If this rom used the unified kernel for msm8226, then that means D2305 could also be working with it ( RIL will be an important thing to test ). And what do you mean by shutdown not working ? Does it apply to restart too ?

Hahaha nice shot. Thing is - build I released already use unified kernel. Unified as in, works on many devices, not variants (if you took same kernel, flashed it on Z3 it would work).
And by shutdown not working i mean it reboots instead of shutdown.
Oh that, I thought it won't even attempt to reboot. Ok, will flashing this rom in about an hour and let see how this goes
Edit: Flashed it, black screen and vibrating, the same situation as with D2302 users. Btw, can I ask you if D2305 is gonna be in the support list soon

Nice battery life. More expectations from the fully working ROM now @galaxyfreak I still keep track of your github commit, model detection script works now right ?
I think jerplea is not accepting it!
He said that AOSP only supports the single sim LTE model, he didn't say anything about modding it to fit other AOSP-based roms and such
@galaxyfreak is ART run fine on the M2 ? Any downside ?

Relocking the bootloader works for me. This isn't related to the Cyanogen image either. It will happen with stock ROM if the bootloader is unlocked. I never figured out why.

I have the same problem as the OP, AT&T told me that having the phone carrier unlocked did not make a difference. They also said I needed a warranty replacement, I called bull, so I reached out to Samsung, they told me to go to Best Buy to get them to push the update. I dont have the time to sit there for hours. So I come to you guys.
If what you say is true then I just need to be a bit more patient. Or should I just go to Best Buy and let them fiddle with my phone?

im in non unlocked bootloader
Just installed the OTA about an hour ago. So far all of my apps are working ok, including Chase and Capital One. Google Pay I have not tried using yet at a machine.
The only thing that I am missing is the voicemail tab on the dialer. Also my galaxy watch is a bit sluggish right now, but that may be due to low battery.

Remove -w from the fastboot flash all batch file
*Sorry read that wrong initially. I don't think the ota file wipes automatically but I can't say for sure.
Root may take awhile, Google removed /sbin from the root directory. That is causing him issues. No TWRP isn't helping either.
Has anybody on Google Fi that uses an e-SIM flashed the preview yet? I haven't been able to get my service to fully activate since flashing. Calls and texts can still be made, but the fun things like RCS and VPN can't be used until the service is activated.
Just curious. I know it's a preview and things will be broken. I'm more looking for corroborating information and if anybody's discovered a workaround.
Download Fialer from PlayStore and do a Sim Switch or mess with the cellular info in fialer other than that mine is up a running fine which I use Hangouts for msg.

Hi All, Sorry for the Newbie question... I have a Pixel 2 and 3 as a play around phone as I use an S10 for my work/main line...
So, would love to give 11 a go... Last time I just received an OTA to join and I see OTA being mentioned ... So just curious do we have to flash this first beta manually or can we get access via an OTA?

You have to flash this one manually. They don't release the sign up until beta 1. This is still in developer preview stage, though extremely stable.
