My unlocked AT&T Mini averaged 2-3 bars before I put the stock international ROM on it. Now I get 0-1 bars, but everything seems to be working ok.
My first question is - can a ROM have any effect on reception? And if not, is it possible to put the stock T-Mobile HTC One M7 ROM on the Mini, or are they incompatible? I'd like to get T-Mobile software for the Wi-Fi calling feature.
Thanks for any help.
DO NOT USE "One M7" ROMS WITH YOUR "One mini M4"!

Thanks - that's what I figured. Any ideas about the reception issue?

Well I posted this in the Galaxy Note forums but I've had no response. So I thought I'd post it where the whole world can see. I'm on ICS ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1661772 ), and I have really really REALLY crappy signal and data. Usually in have like 3 bars everywhere but now I barely get 1 or sometimes none. Also, it shows an H on top of the signal bar which means HSPA+ but its really 2G. I've flashed all the modems (T989 and Blaze ICS) but it just "turns off" my signal. What I mean by that is that there's an X over my signal no matter what I do. I have to factory reset and stuff in order for it to come back. So...can anyone help me? Thanks .

Hi Everyone,
I'm experiencing serious signal drops with the HTC One X LTE. It used to happen once a week, but now it happens like every 30mins, which is drivint me nuts. Can someone let me know if it is a hardware issue or a software issue.
I'm currently using the CleanRom 4.1. I flashed the phone right away, so I'm unsure how the phone is like on stock rom. I'm curently with Rogers Canada.
Force your phone to use only 3g . I have had this issue... Click on my profile and read my previous post.

I'm already only using 3G. I turned off LTE because it was draining my battery like mad. With only 3G i'm still getting terrible signal drops
Its happening to me too. On stock and on Cleanrom. Starting to piss me off. Even going into airplane mode sometimes freezes
Mine was dropping a fair bit on stock 1.77 and moreso on AOKP and CM9 based ROMS.
I found updating to Telstra 1.89 firmwares has fixed nearly all my connection issues on 3g/lte and wifi.
Try going into recovery, and clearing cache & Dalvik, then reboot.
Simple fix (and certainly won't hurt), and might not fix your issue. But its cleared up signal drops the few times I've had them.
I really think it's more network related. I saw a lot if this on 3G before getting the HOX. Seems to have cleared up in my area.

Get your carrier to give you another SIM. Fixed my issues and cost me nothing. Cause the iPhone micro Sims are too thin and don't sit right in your slot. The new still cards are thicker

Well after trying cm10 for a while I decided to come back to synergy because it was still a bit buggy. Now however I cannot seem to connect to 4g. None of my imei stuff was changed it just appears that the LTE is broke. Any ideas ? Thanks in advance.

Try Phone Info from the Market
In device information goto set preferred network type.. LTE/CDMA/EvDo
Thank you good sir. That will probably do the trick ( out of a 4g zone right now )

Be careful with phone info. It messed up my 4G to the point where I couldn't get it back

Go to the dialer and dial
*2767*3855#
I tried that and it got my 4G back. It will wipe your phone tho but will still be on the same rom

I'm having the same loss of LTE/4g issue as the OP, but when I dialed *2767*3855# all I got was a "Welcome to Verizon Wireless, your call could not be completed as dialed" message.
What am I doing wrong? Do I have to be in an LTE area to do this (My work/social life is a 4g area, home is not.)?
Thanks!
Does it say h+?
From someone that helped me. I was told the following
ATT never called their HSPA+ 4G until TMo started advertising theirs as 4G. If TMo can why cant ATT? ATT has had HSPA+ long before TMO has after all, but only overseas unlocked phones utilized it. TMo howevrr put a lot more money into building up their H+ network while ATT put it into LTE. and their H+ speeds differences clearly show that.
Anyways.. 
To better clarify for those coming from stock
Stock Rom. = CM10
4G LTE = 4G
4G = H+
Not sure if stock rom considers regular HSDPA (H) as 3G or 4G....
3G = 3G
E = E

Is the problem you're having that you see h+ instead of 4g?

You need to be on stock, if you weren't.

make sure u are oon a touchwiz rom, then it should work
Well depending on what CM10 Rom you flashed it could have flashed a new kernel. Try reverting back to the stock kernel and see if that works for you. I would also recommend another fresh install of the rom. Occasionally mine does that to depending on what Rom I'm coming from.
Had this happen to me when I flashed d2vzw the other night. Downloaded Phone Info from Play and my phone was set to generic gsm. Changed it back to LTE and it was all good after that.

I've tried that. No matter what I change it to 4g has not come back.

flashing a new rom sometimes seems to make me not be able to get 4g, I'm in a strong 4g area. But I just leave it be and it fixes itself within 10 mins or so

I don't know if that's true for my case. I've had different roms while at work and it doesn't go to 4g. On a 30 min drive to work its only g or e

Its definetly not a kernel or rom issue, that kernel/rom combo is one of the most stable that exists on our boards. Could it just be that Tmo has crappy reception where you live/work?

Would not surprise me in the least. I have been in a 1 year fight w/ Tmo concerning the piss-poor coverage in my area that happened after an "upgrade" to 3.5g
It states that I should have "good" HDSPA coverage. Apparently "good" equals "Only at 2 am in the morning, once a week- and only 1 bar"
For 2g, I get random dropping- and FYI: Tmo will *NOT* believe it's a tower issue, even if you pull the antenna logs
/Stock MT4g, 2.3.4- haven't had a good enough connection to download and root my phone.

Complain to the BBB. I wouldn't be suprised if it was TMO's fault
I had the same problem where I'd randomly lose signal and a member on here said it could be the phone thats the problem. Its supposedly a common issue with the HTC Panache, the Canadian MT4G.
Hey, recently my moto g has not been getting signal in places that my old phone did (a s3 mini). I checked the bands and they are the same as my s3 mini. I tried reflashing the radio to no gain. Im on the UK network Three. I think i will probably have to flash a custom kernel. Im rooted with various xposed modules installed, with lots of experience with android (5 phones 2 tablets) and I have never had anything like this! Hell please!
Thanks in advance, Neo
