just asking but where did you look for radios? You can always do a google search as well... http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/ref-oneplus-one-modem-collection-t2858734
Please make sure to properly read the thread before flashing anything. Make sure it is compatible with your phone as well.

No your dBm strength are you saying something is good or bad with it

I am also getting poor service with my one, whereas my Nexus 4 got much better signal. I am starting to think my phone is defected.

Ok..
As what i read from the post you showed to me..
for gsm only, the best dbm strength is -5x to -6x dbm.
but i inconsistently getting -7x to -8x dbm which is very bad.
wcdma is even worse at a range of -9xdbm to -10x dbm which is unusable..

Actually your signal strength is pretty good. The numbers you are quoting don't mean much unless you consider distance from cell tower, weather, ground conditions,etc.

Will it get any signal, WiFi, GPS, GPRS?
Are the connections set up right?
Is it an active SIM?

He FOUND this phone.
His sim is probably inactive, that's why. Only in the US are the carriers required to let you on their network without service just for 911 calls. Other countries, not so much.
tried three different sims(active) but still with the same problem.
wifi works just fine etc
i belive its blocked.

Either the radio is busted, or you are in a country where they block stolen/lost phones.
I belive that is the case....
is it a way to unblock ?
Funny, just yesterday I lost one....

You can send it to me
Ill pay for your troubles.
You could call the carrier and try to find the owner. If you did that then you'd catch less heat on the forum and you can make a bid with the carrier to get it un-banned.

I believe that would be the correct answer.

Do you have any signal issues with the Inspire? i am thinking of coming back..

thinking of coming back to the inspire but i want to make sure there are no cell signal issues with the inspire. have you all had any probs? how was it fixed?
Thank you
Why would u ask that? Did you?
I've never had any signal problem... I hardly have 5 notches out of 5 though even with 2 I m able to speak with no loss of quality...

gees...
Yeah, the signal strength with the stock radio for me is sub par as compared to the slew of other phones I have laying around here. Its always way down as compared to every other phone I have, even my iphone, which was the reigning king of crap signal. Maybe its possible to get a better signal with a different radio, I dont know? Its mainly just affected in building call performance, and definitely data performance. BUT I love this phone and am going to live with it. I have even thought about trying to rig up an antenna of some sort to experiment. I might try to solder a coil of wire onto the lower antenna/cover, probably wont work but I its an easy experiment.
btw I have tried different roms and reflashed the stocker a bunch of times experimenting with little to no change minus my gps randomly going away after some flashes.
Are we back in high school? What's with all these back and forth comments? Why not help the OP instead of going off topic?
And to reply to the OP, I personally haven't had any (cell) signal problems. The area you are in and how congested it is also a major factor.

Your's was a pointless statement. You didn't even ask a question. Are you having problems making calls, or getting data, or does it just bother you that only 1 bar is showing? How do other phones behave in the same location? Did it work with the factory firmware?

You need to give a lot more info than "1.6 something" for anyone to help. Just FYI, every radio on the Thunderbolt right now is "1.6 something." Also, you have one bar, but has it been better on the other radio? Does it drop in and out? Do you have data, or only affecting voice calls? What is your actual signal reading (in dbm)? Did you flash anything recently?
Kinda weird that you would give no info and get upset when no info is given back.
My radio is 1.1600_W1
The other radios are
1.12
And the leaked is 1.13
I flashed adrynalnye kernal test A.zip
Got 6-5 bars now.
My mistake. Glad you got it working. For reference, do you remember what kernel you were on when you had signal issues?

I'm not sure which kernel it was sorry.

I've noticed that my signals have dropped a bit as well, but only just a bit.. I have tried new radios/ roms, but it remains the same.. I then cleaned the contact points on the case and it got a little better.. I think though, it is just age..

Yes, I know it has to do with NFC, but I've read that it is for bluetooth and wifi as well, so I gave it a try...

Poor cell reception with wifi on, lineage/cm Roms

I get decent cell reception with wifi off, but as soon as I turn on wifi my cell reception becomes really poor. It has happened to me on multiple cm/lineages roms, and also on Aosp roms, but it's not nearly as bad on the Aosp roms. I've tried multiple firmwares and different versions of twrp to try to fix it. Nothing has worked. If it helps I'm using a chinese opo in the United states.

I'm pretty sure it's not, because I get ok service on some Aosp roms. On CM/lineage roms I get inconsistent reception and basically no reception with wifi is on.
