hi all.. I started on HC...
then to LQ1
then LQ2,
now I see LP5..
Can you say what are the differences?
Should I flash again?
I'm in the USA.
thanks.alot

XALQ1 first released ics for austria... XXLQ2 is an update to it... they fixed something... but dont have any log on what they fix...
ZSLP7 release for HK. did not have face unlock
DDLP5 is indian release version. dont really have any different with LQ2

OK.. thanks alot

I also moved from XXLQ2 to DDLP5.
This was a mistake, no improvements and if anything the wifi problem is even worse under DDLP5.
I wish Samsung would fix the wifi issue, it is a major problem for me.

Lacks copy paste option on many apps...talk qq, firefox. ..., while those were working fine on LQ2 rom

i dont seem to facing any of the problem that you guys have... lucky me...

Just reflashed back to XXLQ2.
Wifi semi-operational again. More not working than working, but what can you do ?
Samsung could do much better if they started fixing their software, not sure if I could recommend these tablets to anyone that I know.
That said, the P6800 hardware is excellent - but I need a fully functional Jelly Bean software release !!!
BTW, is there a limit on the number of these Odin 1.85 flashes that one can do ?

Hmm, not too sure I've never had any problems with WiFi..
I gets the signal, and connects fine, LQ1 LQ2, and DDLP5
But I was with LQ1 previously and when I traveled abroad, mine could not connect to the most of WiFis even when GS2 connected just fine..
(on the way back home at airport, I fleshed to one of the CM9 Jellybean 1.3v and paranodroid, (see the devel forum), but still had the WiFi problem connecting to airport WiFi...
when I got back home, I fleshed to LQ2 and also DDLP5, they all worked fine (but of course only tested with my home WiFi..)
But when I fleshed this time, one thing I did was to really wipe Everything using cwm v6.0.01, (formating /system, /sdcard as well) except the external_sdcard.
My 6800 is hk version, whats yours? try fully wiping everything and flesh to DDLP5 ? I think the DDLP5 feels a bit smoother..
cheers

I ordered my tablet from HK, but not sure that it is HK version, how do you tell ?
I have had wifi problems with LQ1, LQ2 and LP5.
But it seems to be more of an issue when there is more than one router around - so it does not always happen. But it never happened with HC.

I use LP5 and luckily for me i have no issue (wifi works fine, performance with antutu benchmark (6194) is good compared with LQ1 AND LQ2 -no overclock). I did factory data reset as well as using this (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manniakk.cscselector&feature=search_result) to enable my kies identify the device. I am using recovery from locerra (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542897). The only boot loop happen when i want to do supercharge v6. Perhaps, i slipped up the procedure. No dare to repeat again.

Using locerra's cwm should be safe for a factory reset as it uses a safe kernel. Note that recovery has its own modified kernel that is used for the various operations. It does not use the rom's running kernel on the 7.7.

Hi Ashwin,
Can I flash a different country's ROM on my tab 7.7 (saudi / middle east) as ICS is officially still not available for the middle east. Are the firmwares available on sammobile & samsung-updates dot com genuine and risk free ? If yes, then how do I flash it on the tablet.
Sorry for the questions, still a newbie

[Q] Nexus S weak Wifi and GSM

I recently purchased a Nexus S (M200) and I am experiencing very low Wifi and GSM signals. In fact, it's so low that I can't even make calls from GSM when indoors and need to get outdoor to get fair signals. Similar issue is with Wifi and I have to be within 10 meters to get a stable Wifi connection.
I have tried various roms and kernels but the problem remains. Even went back to stock gingerbread rom and the same problem. Any suggestion to get this fixed? Seems like a hardware issue and my phone is not under warranty!
Help appreciated.

I experienced the same thing on Cyanogen 10.1 nightly but when I was on stock 4.1 it was ok.
Maybe it's your provider which don't have a good network where you are.
I am sorry for my english I hope you will undrstand me.

I can try that. Any suggestion for a reliable radio to use?

You should get the most recent baseband (radio) firmware update for your model of Nexus S. If you search the forums, you should be able to find a thread all the basebands linked. Be sure to only install the one for the model you have, because the wrong one will not work.

Hi, kamran666,
If you purchased it used I would check if WiFi and GSM antennas are there and properly connected.
Take a look on this video from 2:33.

Wifi not working...

Hello!
I decided recently to get a custom rom and since I've before used CM, I chose to use it yet again.
Though, I have problems with the Wifi. It's not working at all, it finds the networks though it just tries to connect and then fails.
I've tried the different kernels and searched through the forums for any solutions for it and I've tried what I've found, though nothing has worked so far..
So is there anyone that has had similar problem that has a solution for it?
I'm currently using,
[ALPHA][ROM][4.1.2] CyanogenMod 10 for Samsung Galaxy SL - Alpha 4 - Farewell Release
[UPDATE_4][9th Feb][KERNEL][CM9/CM10][ICS/JB] ALPHA11 Kernel
Thanks.

Maybe you enter wrong password? If not, flash XXKPE+PIT without bootloader

No, I'm 100% sure it's not a problem of wrong password.

Hi,
I also had wifi problems similar to yours until I came across this simple solution.
You may have already tried this, but if not:
In Settings->Wifi->Menu->Advanced, find the option which says "Avoid Poor Connections" and uncheck it. (de-select).
This trick completely solved my wifi problem.
I hope it works for you.

check you phone mac address. if your router is filtering mac turn on. than u will not get connected.

How do I find out which xxkpe to use if I can't see which firmware version I have by typing #1234#?
When I type #1234# I just get "Connection problem or invalid MMI code"...

could you explain in more detail how to flash nicsptl update.
which kernel has better battery qwerty or nicsptl update and with what governer ??

I've installed XXKPE and DDFL now and it's all working, almost like normal.
It's just my wireless signal that's a little weaker compared to before.
I have to be quite close to the wireless router to get decent signal otherwise I get almost none at all.
Is there any kernel or something I can do to fix this?

[Q] Cyanogenmod 10.1 RC1 Data Connection Issue

So I did a full clean wipe, twice just to be sure.
Flashed RC1 and everything seemed to be going great at first. Then I noticed that the signal is dropping in and out. (I live in San Diego) It won't hold a signal for any reasonable amount of time. So it drops from 4G LTE going off. I've rebooted. At a bit of a loss. I'm operating on ATT.
Should I try to reflash? I was previously running CM 10.0 with no serious issues.
I've made sure the priority is LTE/GSM
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

May be your APN? What radio are you using?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA

Same happened to me. Reflashed the modem problem fixed.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app

I had it on ATT Phone and then switched it to ATT LTE. Issue wasn't resolved. I tried the other APNs as well. Same result.
For poops and giggles I flashed the most recent nightly 05/06 and still had the same issue.
May seem silly to ask, but how do you flash the modem? That sounds like it could be a solution.
Edit: Ermm what radios did you flash to fix the problem?

Looking more like you need the latest UCMC1 radio. Happened with a big kernel update in the nightlies, since this is getting closer to stable, I'm sure we'll see this problem more as more people start updating.

Yea, I flashed that one after I found it on a post about the radios. It fixed the problem to an extent. However I'm getting much weaker signal than usual (although this could be the bars not displaying properly maybe, I don't want to jump immediately to a conclusion) and also am getting the data bars greyed out which means it's not.
Do you recommend reflashing the radio again?

b2tracken,
Just wanted to say thanks for your post here and that I'm experiencing the same exact thing. Yesterday I upgraded my skyrocket from an old ICS install to the latest 4.2.2 with CM 10.1, coincidentally right when this RC1 came out, so I quickly upgraded from M3 to RC1 last night. This morning I noticed that something was up with the radio and read your post. I flashed the radio to UCMC1 like you probably did and now I'm getting a connection, but about half as strong (in bars) as before the whole upgrade. Really no complaints yet - it hasn't hindered phone calls or mobile data connection - but I would be interested to find out if there is anything I can do to improve it, or configure it properly. I'm a big noob when it comes to phones.
Thanks,
Chad

The only other thing that I have changed is going and changing the APN under mobile networks to ATT LTE from ATT Phone. I'm getting about half signal also and intermittent issues with it greying out. (They seem to have not been very prevalent.) Seems that I'm not the only one with the issue which is fortunate. Give that a shot. Hopefully it gets worked out in the next release.

Att ucmc1 apn
SO I've uploaded the original UCMC1 stock ATT APN, you can just create a new APN and set it like these images.
Also wondering, after you cleanup (format data, system, cache, dalvik cache), No reboots, you do the next in the following order:
1-flash UCMC1 Radio
2-flash CM10.1 ROM (I'm still on 04/23 and everything works: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2272261)
3-flash gapps from 20130301 (http://goo.im/gapps)
Good luck,
Don't forget to hit THANKS if I helped you

Having the same exact issue, I've done everything stated here, only thing i did differently was updated the radio after CM.

Well the problem came back randomly with RC2 to an extent.
Now everything is showed as greyed out and no connection available including wifi.
Anybody have a clue on this?

+1. UCMC1 should be used on all current CM10.1 builds. Any older radios will cause major problems with the newer JB-based blobs we use in CM10.1 past around 4/24.
One caveat: I don't know about Rogers users, sorry guys. If you have an official JB release from Samsung, you should use that radio. (Otherwise you will have to use UCMC1)

You said re-root. You don't need root to flash roms.
And probably not, cm is all busted right now anyways and data drops, reboots and all the other stuff is gonna happen regardless.

What nightly are you on? Anything after 4/23 (including the RC's) will have a lot of those instability issues. The developers are working hard to fix it if you want to read the development thread.

Is your Preferred Signal on LTE/GSM (auto)? Check *#*#4636#*#* into phone.

Doesn't matter. I've tried too. It's a little better but the problem still exists. The phone fails to drop to 2G when a call is incoming.
