I rooted and rommed my own phone some time back without any problems, thanks to many excellent posts on this site. My boss kept moaning that his sensation kept crashing/hanging/behaving badly - so I told him that I would root and rom his phone, Which I have done. Problem is though there's no BT or WIFI. I have tried several variations on PG58IMG.ZIP but none even offer to carry out the upgrade. The phones CID is VODAP001 and the text from the HBOOT is as follows....

I cannot seem to change the CID (I tired to superCID it). I'm fairly sure that it's the radio.img that needs to be updated - can anyone help me as to why this isn't happening. What PG58IMG.ZIP should I be using are there any additional locks that Vodafone have put on that I need to remove. The OS seems to work fine except no wifi or bluetooth. The ROM I installed is the AKOP milestone 6. Please help, my boss might sack me! :crying:

You would probably be better getting the phone to have S-OFF first.
You've not stated if the phone has gone through the HTCdev unlock mechanism. Although, I don't know what that achieves in comparison to full S-OFF.
EDIT:
In About Phone -> Software information what does it say r.e.:
Software Number
More -> Baseband version

dev unlocked and s-off. Sorry, I thought that was implied where I said "root and rom his phone, Which I have done"
Android version 4.0.4
baseband version 11.69A350400U_11.23.3504.07_M2

I've tried several PG%*IMG.zip files that appear to be the correct versions, but all they do is get as far as the Parsing... then returns me to the fastboot screen. Everything on the phone appears to work correctly except radio services (BT & Wifi) and the SD card won't mount on PC on USB mode, but I'm not bothered about that - if the Wifi works I can always network files onto the phone.

Hi,
According to your hboot,it says "S-ON" .
That is why no PG58IMG.zip will work
It seems that if you cannot see that,you should really not be playing with your boss's phone.
If you intend to carry on,look in my signature at the "Asskicker Thread "
That deals with s-on and flashing custom ROMS...

GPS not working after root please help.

I have just rooted my HTC ChaCha and it seems to be fine. Problem is that I have now lost GPS signal. GPS software and GPS status app just sit there and keep searching but never get a lock.
Bootloader was unlocked via HTCDEV after updating to OS 2,3.5. & Updating HBOOTLOADER.

Also been given a RADIO update image that is said to be correct for the phone with correct network band and GPS working. Just not sure how to install. As I read you are supposed to only be able to install radio update in s-off mode.
Have the following installed:
Clockwork Mod Recovery
SuperUser APP
Titanium Backup APP
GPS Status APP
Any ideas on how to fix and get GPS working again?
Have not installed any custom roms still on supplied stock Vodafone Australia. On network unlocked phone. My network operator is Telstra.
UPDATE:
Had to flash back to stock stock recovery.img
Updated tolatest 2.3.5 again to get GPS working again. Left it for an hour or so to get the inital GPS signal. After that it was able to start getting the GPS connect quickly again.

No idea why I had to reflash and update to stock factory supplied software to recover GPS . Any more ideas would be appreciated. At least its still showing unlocked and rooted which is good. Yet it seems a common problem with GPS not working where many people have to downgrade back to stock and reflash back to custom ROM to get GPS working.again.

[Q] Problems going back to stock after Venom Rom installed

Hi Everyone,
knowing it's all out there, just need to read (a lot), please help me finding the correct way to solve my problem. I can not change to other ROM, mostly due to lack of knowledge. Please before you judge and claim I should read and learn, i have kids who don't allow me read things properly, and there are tons of information out there, seems simplier to ask for directions this time, based on the situation of the phone.
This is the first custom rom I tried on my new S4 HTC One S (not brand new, just new to me). It was stock rom, locked. Followed instructions on different threads, I unlocked the phone, flashed TWRP recovery, installed SuperSU, copied Venom Rom zip to SD card and installed from recovery, with the aroma. Success. Before installation I did a backup in TWRP.
I very much like the rom (though have 2 issues: 1. phone reboots randomly without any notification. 2 phone loses carrier randomly, so I see no GSM connection as if SIM was removed. This happens when phone is untouched so no way SIM is loosy or something). When I try to chose carrier manually from settings, it sais no SIM card is installed...
But I would like to try other roms as well, and also wish to compare some stock roms. So I downloaded a generic HTC Europe stock RUU, hoping I can easily flash it. Relocked the phone, ran the RUU.exe with Fastboot USB mode in bootloader, but it all came up with error messages and left me at the HTC logo. All I can do is to re-install Venom 3.0.0 from recovery, that works, otherwise I end up in boot loop.
Also I can not go back to the original state using the backup from TWRP. It installs boots but it basicaly freezes before the phone setup comes. I can see the background image, the clock and the GSM antenna sign, but thats all, nothing else happens, no matter how hard I try to reboot.
Phone current boot screen shows: Tampered + Unlocked

When I re-locked the phone it said Tampered + Relocked + Security Warning
As recovery I have TWRP 2.6.0.0 flashed. I did nothing else.
Could someone help me with instructions or at least directions how I could go back to a nice stock RUU? With the one I downloaded i had different error codes 213 (wrong ID) and 255 Unkown error.
I believe as the phone is not S-OFF and/or Super CID, it is relevant which RUU I download. The phone used to boot with a voda logo, so I believe it was one of the UK or AT voda stock roms, but neither works.
Your opinion/feedback is highly appreciated.
Cheers,
skee

To go back to stock u have to flash the right RUU, depends on which CID ur phone got.
u can download it here: http://www.androidruu.com/?developer=Ville
If u downloaded the right RUU, boot ur HOS into fastboot relock the phone and start the RUU.
Let it finish and u r on stock

Hi Homeboy, thanks for the answer. Seems clear. I have only 1 question. How can I make sure which is the right RUU?
I believe I should do a getvar all command, to see the CID id? Then what shall I look at the RUU's filename?
And after the phone having been relocked, shall it be in fatboot USB in bootloader or shall the phone be up and running when I start the RUU.exe from the computer?
thanks

Hey Guys!
Yesterday I flashed the rom "Liberty S4 MAX".
Within the Aroma installation it has an option to flash radio (I believe v1.20) and I said yes as I thought it would work good with that rom.
After playing around a little I found that the rom didn't statisfy my needs and I flashed MagioROM.
MagioROM did statisfy my needs, BUT I noticed that my network wouldn't work when I booted up my phone.
The problem I have now:
Every time my phone boots up I can enter my PIN-Code and the phone will stay on "No Signal" (no network service).
I do have a Wi-Fi signal.
I can , however, get it to work: I open my phone and open the dialer. I type *#*#4636#*#* and it bring me to the "testing" configuration. I can click "Phone Information" and scroll down to the preferred network service. It says WCDMA Preferred which is good. I can click "Turn off radio" and than click on "Turn on radio" enter my PIN-Code again and BOOM! the network works.
The network is, however, not stable and sometimes I have to do this step again a few times while my phone is running.
How do I solve this problem?
I did try to flash a new radio. I flashed every radio in this link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2419699
I did try another rom (ViperOneS) but still the same problem.
My Phone:
HTC One S (S4)
S-ON
HBOOT : 2.15.0000
RADIO : 1.15.50.05.29
Thanks in advance!

If you have S-OFF just flash another Radio from a .zip in CWM or TWRP

aint work with noew radio
i've clean up sim card and sim card plug space - for now it is ok
anyway - thanks for advice

Same problem.
I upgraded to hboot 2.16 (my radio was 1.20.50.05.16; I am S-off with a 11111111 CID) and can now no longer connect to my network.
When I did *#*#4636#*#*, I got WCDMA, which was wrong. But I've tried different versions of GSM (which is what I need), and none seem to work. Even on the phone info screen, it keeps saying 'GSM service: Emergency calls only'. Also after I do radio off/radio on, it asks me for my pincode, I enter that, it accepts it, but nothing changes.
I've also flashed another radio (1.35a.32.45.27), but I get the same problem (first it says WCDMA, but even when I change to GSM, it still doesn't work.)
I've ran various RUUs - none of them solve the problem.
And I have of course tried to remove and reinsert the sim-card - but nothing works.
Does anybody have any ideas about what might be wrong?

I'm still stuck with this problem. and would still be grateful for any ideas about what the problem might be and (especially) how to solve it. Oh and to add to the mystery: when I put in my daughter's sim-card, it DOES automatically register without any problems. And I have already tried deleting all APNs and re-enter one based on the instructions given on the website of my provider (KPN), but I still can't get it to work,. There must be some other bizarre thing here...

My M8 Will Not Recognize Non-Verizon SIM

Hi all, here's my problem, any help would be greatly appreciated
I've had an M8 for about 6 months now, but in my attempt to fix the sim slot (hardware issue) I destroyed the ZIF connector for the screen display (DOH!). The M8 has been one of my favorite phones so far, so I just ordered a new(ish) one from SoonerSoft on ebay. Unfortunately, now that it's arrived, it refuses to recognize my MetroPCS sim card. I get no status bar icon, but when I reboot the device I get an error message that says "Non-Verizon Sim" and I have NO SERVICE WHATSOEVER. From what I've read, this device should be factory SIM unlocked but I have no talk, no text, no data connection. I've been going round and round in circles trying to resolve the issue on my own so I figured I would reach out for some help.
Here are the fixes I've already attempted:
Flashed TWRP and CMod 13
Flashed back to stock KitKat with RUU method
Attempted SIEEMPI SimUnlock method
Manually changed my CID to SuperCID (11111111)
Now that I've done RUU, I can't flash another ROM, and I'm unwilling to S-ON again in case I end up with a non-updatable version of KitKat 1.55.
Note: When I go into data settings, it will not let me select any GSM only networks as my Preferred Network, and I can't access any GSM Settings either in the data menu or the call menu. The phone doesn't even recognize the SIM as a MetroPCS chip. Please help!

EDIT: Just FYI, my old VZW M8 had no problem recognizing the sim card, I just couldn't maintain contact between the pins and the sim for very long.

Having the same issue with my Verizon M8. Sim is not detected, tried many methods found on the internet and here on xda as well, but no luck.
