[Q] - CM10 EDGE Only

Hey Guys! I recently picked up the HOX after three solid years on the Captivate. The rooting/flashing experience has been more difficult thus far but the device is pretty friggin' sweet. I unlocked and rooted with minimal issues and went to the latest CM10 nightly out of the gate. No issues were encountered at least during boot up. Once up and running however, the only network available is EDGE. I searched around and found posts in other device forums stating this is due to corrupt/missing IMEI. Did not see anything about this for the dual core HOX. I checked the ATT APN details and they matched what people were posting around. The IMEI is correct in the about phone->status info. Available networks shows ATT and US only. If I try to manually select ATT, it states it cannot reach this network at this time. So it appears I am lost at the moment. Should I reflash CM10? or start over at stock? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

do you have at&t branded evita? what radio, hboot and base is on your phone?

i have same. i see ups and downs from build to build and rom to rom sometimes specially lately with 4.2.x. usually i toggle airplane mode and it fixes the problem for awhile, but i've never been stuck on edge unless it was a build my phone really didn't like. what gapps are you using? are you using stock kernel? are you s-off?

I flashed a gapps-jb-20121212-signed version. Stock CM kernel and left it s-on. The instructions I was following did not mention adjusting this, so I left it alone. Would it be a potential starting point you think? I tried the airplane mode after each reboot, but EDGE only sadly. I tried different APNs, but again EDGE only.

Done. Still no joy though. It did take several minutes before it found a network but still living on EDGE.

well, by now i'd say try another rom. or ruu back to stock and see if your phone has issues. or you might need a new sim.

I don't really have a solution for you but you're not alone. I was having a lot of issues with my phone dropping its data or telling me there's not SIM in it.

Understood. I think I'll RUU back to stock. Just to be clear, I came from 2.20 firmware. Do I need to fallback to the same version coming from CM10? Or can I use 1.85?

Found a thread on RUUs, looks like it recommends staying at your version minimum. Grabbed a copy of the 2.20 RUU but my comp won't even run the thing. Locks the joint up before it even prompts for step 1. Bad download maybe?

it takes awhile for ruu to load. i use winxp and don't bog my computer down with crap like "most" people.
those are the download links and md5 sums for 1.85 and 2.20

Turned out the issue was hard drive space. Dumped a buncha old albums onto an external drive and the RUU completed its run successfully. Sadly there was no change in the issue. The device remains on EDGE and I'm stuck with crummy Sense. Very deflating.

if you have an at&t evita and you are on at&t i think your problem is your sim card.

I'll attempt to get a new sim tomorrow. The office did do a "reset" on the sim but there was no change to the service. I did notice in the boot menu the S/N is different than what is listed on the sticker located on the back of the phone. Is this usually the case? or a sign of a potential conflict?

Tried a couple of different SIM cards at the office and remained on EDGE at all times. Tried the same card in a new HOX and it gained access to the 4G network with alacrity. So issue appears to be device related. Almost as if the ATT network denies the phone access to the HS networks. Possible conflict somewhere?

Bell mobility signal dropping

I recently ran the bell ruu on my phone for my 1.08 hboot which reinstalled the stock Rom for my phone which worked well. I then did the ota update which updated my phone to 2.15 hboot and 3.16.666.9 version (jb) and now the signal keeps switching between no signal and near full strength. Please help.

Well the problem appeared after the ota and I s-offed later thinking that I would be able to fix the problem with s-off. I have a feeling its my hboot being too high (2.15) but was reading that downgrade after the ota causes brick for some.

If you have applied Moonshine S-OFF, it installed HBOOT 2.15.4444 ... Don't know but it might be related to the signal issue. You can confirm from the relative thread.

did this problem ever get fixed?

Still haven't been able to figure it out. I have since tried ruu's and hboot downgrades and tried all radios and multiple roms. Broke down to calling Bell who told me to buy a new sim card. After using a strangers phone to activate the sim card because it my only phone, i got the sim activated but the phone kept dropping signal. I called back Bell and they said they will report it and then they gave me HTC's number. I called HTC and they asked me to go into recovery; having a custom recovery at the time made me have to admit that i had an unlocked bootloader. They suggested i send in the phone for repair. The guy on the phone told me to just relock the bootloader and flash the stock rom and they will still lock at it. He even remarked that they have fixed some phones with unlocked bootloaders and custom recovery's. I will report back when i hear from HTC about the repair estimate.

Got the estimate for the phone and it will cost 250$ to fix. They told me that the main board and the battery are broken. O have since denied the repair since I can't afford that. Now I am forced to use my old Samsung T746. Ps they did t care that I was s-offend.

"These are radios for flashing in Sense OR CM 10.x builds after 7/15 nightly!!!. They don't include the RIL files."
anyways, now i have been problems, phone randomly thinks sim card is being removed/inserted.
and having random reboots
tried flashing the 3.18 ruu

Hboot details are in the screen shot. TWRP 2.7.0. Viper 4.2.0. Kernel is beastmode 3.4.10.
So my problem that I am having is that my phone continues to loose all data and voice service due to the phone telling me that there is no sim. I have tried different Radios with no differnce. sometimes the phone will start reading the sim if I toggle the phone into airplane mode.

I believe the radio is your problem, you need to make sure you have one of the radios that came bundled with Sense 5 releases installed. They'll be the ones that are 1.31 and upwards.

Ok, I read something similar to what you are saying and I did flash a radio 1.31 from this link with is 2.15 firmware. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2517148. However the same problem was still happening. After flashing the current radio (from the above attachment), what I have noticed is that the No Sim icon only seems to happen when I have WiFi turned on for an extended time, this was just a brief observation from last night and this morning.
I am about to flash a stock RUU (possibly the 5.18) to 1) get the phone up to date with the latest firmware and 2) to see if this will help with my Sim Card problems. Or should I use a different RUU to start from Stock again?
Also When looking at the Radios thread I dont see any radios that are 1.31 and up for ATT. All of them seem to begin with 0.xx. The thread i am looking at is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1694012

With S-Off and my CID all 1s I wouldnt have to worry about doing the root again? After the RUU i should be able to install TWRP again and then a custom rom?

Your bootloader will remain unlocked, your CID will remain as 11111111, and your s-off status will survive the process. It's as simple as flashing TWRP afterwards and then the ROM of your choice.

Did the issue start after flashing the ROM, or any other mods. Of did it just randomly start happening? Have you tried the stock kernel?'
Have you tried the trick of simply putting Scotch tape on the SIM (don't cover the contacts) to "fatten" it and force it to make better contact in the SIM tray? Loose SIM tray is known to cause the same issue.

To my best knowledge the issue started happening randomly. Phone was working fine for some time while I was one Viper. I believe but not 100% I started noticing this after a drop so a loose tray could very well be the problem. Also this issue was present with the stock kernel as well.

Those answers (randomness, possible dropped phone) to me point to loose SIM tray. Also, have you tried taking the SIM out, and putting it back in, to make sure its seated properly (if dropped, it could have loosened it)?
If none of the suggestions work, you might also try to get a new SIM from your carrier.

No i havent tried taking it out. I will try that out tonight. If all else fails I may end up going for a referb phone, but now with 5.18 I might hold off for as long as i can.

To all, would disabling Google play services have any affect on the SIM card. I ask because after I flashed the 5.18 RUU I flashed a recovery and the flashed Viper. Phone was up and running about 1pm yesterday. Phone ran good with no problems the rest of day. This morning I unplug the phone from charger and within an hour or so I'm already at 87 percent battery. Looking up what is keeping the phone awake the culprit Google play services ( getting very annoyed of this app) so I force stop and disable play services and within one minute I get that icon of no SIM card. So with my story does google play services have any affect on the SIM cards? And how can I limit the wake locks of Google checkin.
Sorry for the long post.

[Q] 4G/LTE band missing

I was experimenting my M8 with T-Mobile sim card. I flashed 5.0.1 GPE ROM and everything worked fine. I also changed its CID to T-MOB010 and flashed ViperOneM8 3.2.1. It worked fine as well. But after I reverted everything back (by loading 3.28.605.4 0P6BIMG and firmware, and restoring a TWRP backup), I discovered I can no longer get 4G/LTE signal. I can only get 3G. I tried flashing to RUU M8_VZW 4.4.3 (firmware &0P6BIMG). But it doesn't help. I dialed *#*#4636#*#* but didn't see any option/menu. When I use 4G Switcher app to select band, 1900MHz band isn't available. The network type is set to "CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto". I am using CleanROM 3.0. Any advise will be greatly appreciated.

Try a factory reset using stock recovery. Not twrp or any custom recovery. Has to be stock recovery.
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using Tapatalk

I understand completely where you are coming from. I flashed the same rom and my phone stop connecting to LTE when in global mode. I have flashed the 4.4.2, 4.4.3, and 4.4.4 RUU and went into the stock recovery and did a factory reset and it still does not work.
Right now I am running cleanrom 3.0 also. The only time I can get LTE is when I go into settings and switch it to LTE only.
The only thing I think it can be is when I do the factory reset on the RUU, the says restoring Verizon NV flash rather than formatting it. I want to try and flash a T-MOBILE RUU to see if it will format it and clear it out then switch back to Verizon but I don't know if that will brick my phone. If I can't find a way to wipe the NV the only thing else to do is run the phone over with my car a couple times then claim warranty.
Not trying to knock digital high's rom because he and several others put a lot of work into the stock 5.0 rom and I really appreciate the effort, but I wish I didn't flash it because I think there is an underlying issue with the rom that is affecting a small portion of our phones. And it is so small that there is no support to fix it. I have scoured the forum to find a fix and nothing has worked so far. But these are the problems we accept when we hack our phones and flash non factory software.
I hope you find a fix and if you do please let me know. Good luck.

I'm having the LTE issue as well. I'm currently running DigtalHigh's GPE 12/18 release with the updated firmware. LTE works on first boot until I connect to my Wi-Fi network, after that I never see LTE again. I tried everything, and I mean everything. I tried the RUU back to 4.4.4 and doing a factory reset from that... I get the same result, LTE on 1st boot until the WiFi connects and then it's gone for good again until the next complete reset.
The most recent thing I tried was replacing the SIM card (while on the GPE rom)... this worked flawlessly. I had LTE again for a few days... until I made a phone call from my car using Bluetooth, at which point the phone geeked out, switching from speaker to line-out to bluetooth audio and eventually dropping my call (not sure if that is somehow related to the LTE issue), but now I'm back to no LTE again.
But I get full bars of 3G, so I've got that going for me... which is nice.

Is it possible for you to put in a new SIM while on another Rom like clean rom to see if LTE will stay?

DH GPE with custom firmware has hooped the VZW LTE radio settings, it has overwritten them...no amount of custom rom re-installations will fix this.
As stated above, the easiest way to fix this is to simply flash a stock Verizon RUU, and THEN do a factory reset from the stock recovery. I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...ent/ruu-m8vzw-4-4-4-s-off-onlynewest-t2914914 with the SD card method and it worked fine.
After you do the stock factory reset you can then install DH GPE again, without using custom firmware.

I know what it is, but what I don't know is what stock are you referring to; do I have to downgrade to 4.4.4 or when you mean stock it doesn't matter if it's Lollipop 5.0.1.? Thank you sir!

I mean the matching HTC provided recovery img for the firmware version you are on.

Boy this horse is getting beat to death. Go to Dottat's RUU posts where he explains it all. I used the 5.0.1 S-Off one. Once it's installed, boot, and then reboot to it's stock/factory recovery and do a factory reset. That will fix your 4G/LTE problem. Then you get root back and flash a "custom" recovery like TWRP. I followed the Sunshine instructions. If you don't want/need root or TWRP skip it and you'll have an S-off stock not rooted phone.

It's been a few years since I wore my horse, the HD2 to death and I didn't stumble on to the cure until the wee hours this morning. It eventually comes back and like the wife hitting your head with the iron skillet...ding, ding, ding....external micros SD card and RUU; I remember how to do that. I'm S-Off, this will work. What I didn't know is what is "stock"; factory state you walked out the store with or matching the ROM to the firmware and if I'm going to downgrade to reset the NV configuration, what all that entails. It's the jargon, I need to learn and that takes time. I sincerely appreciate what the OPs do and where they direct me to; thanks!

Answered this once already in the last 24 hours and this will be the last time.
Stock recovery is the matching HTC provided recovery img that is from the matching firmware version you are currently on. If you are on 1.X firmware it's best to find stock recovery from the 1.X ruu or firmware zip file.
Stock recovery is only provided by HTC.
Why is this so dang difficult to understand folks and why does the question need to be repeatedly posed?

Well, not all brains are wired the same. I do understand providing a direct link again or now would be like defeating the purpose. Although sometimes some words in some directions or answers are misleading to One and very confusing.

Point is the information is already out there. Nothing misleading about it.
There are some basic premises that better be understood first lest he avoid failure by leaving that boot loader locked and s on.
Capiche?

Because, those of us doing the asking while we truly and sincerely appreciate the work all of you do, and believe me "I" do, some of you, not all of you completely fail at the teaching aspect of the knowledge you possess. That said, thank you very much; it worked. I can't tell you whether it was the factory reset or performing the edit inside ##778; the moment I put the wife's Straight Talk (Verizon) SIM card in; 4G LTE returned. I did not have access to the dial code until now. Again, thank you!

HTC - No signal... Ever

Hi,
I can't seem to get any signal, can't call text or use data on my HTC desire 620. But it is finding the networks as when I search to select networks it can find O2 (I'm on giffgaff. And it claims to have registered on network. I've refreshed back to stock,but I don't know where to go from here.
Do I need to reflash the radio.img? If so how would I go about doing that? I've searched allover but can't find the file online.
Thanks

The easiest way to fix your issue is to factory reset it, if that doesn't work, then restore your phone entirely using the stock files, IF that isn't something you want to do then yes, flash the radio and flash the modem as well. It can't hurt.
In most cases just start back at square 1; going entirely back to stock. In so many cases that will fix your issue the fastest.

Thanks for the reply,
I've flashed the stock rom already, but that didn't seem to fix it.
But I read somewhere that flashing a stock rom doesn't actually flash the radio or modem, just the system, boot and recovery.
In which case do you know where I could find a download for the modern and radio?
Thanks

Well if you want to be certain you have your phone entirely back to stock...
Factory reset the phone.
Power it off, and reflash the stock files
Flash the modem and radio
Once it powers back up factory reset it again
Let me know what happens after that, I'll look into your particular HTC so I can help you fully this evening, Get back to me after you've done the above again, even if you've already done it already.

I've flashed and reset everything except the modem and radio, as I'm still searching for the files. Is there anyone with this device who could upload their's. It is the HTC desire 620, unlocked from H3G (Three).

Hmmm, that's odd.
What's your device model (country as well; us version? India? Etc) what's the latest firmware and boot loader you know you were on?
Have you flashed all of the latest updates for your phone? I ask because if you've updated and you're using a previous version to try to fix your phone, that will not work.
Let me know all the pertinent details about your device and firmware/bootloader so i can provide a bit of better assistance
Thanks
