Clean flash... wipe system, data, and caches, then flash only the ROM without Gapps and verify boot. If it still fails you will need to give us more information of what you were on before, especially any custom kernels you may have tried.

I tried.

I installed AOSP, Lineage OS and Ressurection Remix WITHOUT no other custom Kernels with and without installing Gapps. But when I run Chrome ,Maps or Mx Player, it soft reboots itself. And also the internet connnection and calls gets cutoff while downloading files. All Nougat roms that I installed has the same problem. So now I'm running stock rom 6.0.1 rooted and it has not shown any of the above problems. And also the phone lags from time to time on 7.x.x. I am completely hopeless now now. I love nougat. And I'm a big fan of Custom ROMs. Please can you find some other way.

Sounds like it's time to revert to stock via fastboot and start clean... Also be aware there is a known issue with LineageOS and others based on it that supplementl GPS data is broken, the fix is delete your APN and re-enter it manually without the "supl" APN type.

Done it.

Already done fastbooting to stock rom. And then tried installing custom roms but that didn't fix the problems.

What do you mean by GPS data is broken? What does the APN have to do with GPS. Do phone calls go through?
Thanks, just trying to understand cause I just flashed ViperOS, based on linageOS

There is a known issue with how LineageOS handles the APN entries in some cases (not everyone has this problem), specifically regarding APN type "supl" which is short for "Secure User Plane Location" which is location information from your carrier and it's towers which is used by location services (and GPS indirectly). I can't find the raised bug entry, but the fix is to delete your apn and rebuilt it manually, skipping "supl" in the APN Type field, but you still get SUPL data, it comes from "default". Remember that APN Type is used to tell your phone what type of data uses what APN, if a type isn't specified then it uses default (with the notable exception of mms which must be implicitly configured).
But I didn't really intend to make this a crash course in APN's and how they work, just suffice it to say that there is a GPS/Location problem with how LineageOS handles SUPL being configured in an APN... This is temporary and is either fixed or will soon be fixed in LineageOS and will trickle down to other ROM's based on it.

For reference; https://jira.lineageos.org/plugins/servlet/mobile#issue/BUGBASH-248
I have this problem too and it was very frustrating.
Goodluck!

Wow this is great, I think it might fix it. The only thing is - I can't delete the APN for some reason. Rooted with magisk.

Try making a new entry for APN first. And you have to save the original APN and then you can discard I think.

Not good sign if it happened on stock. The only thing I can think of is do a compete wipe and try start again with original firmware. Maybe there was somthing wrong from the factory. Look here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3187750

[Q] G2x with Cyanogenmod7 can't receive data (I realize this is a common problem)

Hey, so as stated in the title, I have recently flashed Cyanogenmod7. Initially, version 7.2.0 and then the nightly build released on 10/7/12. I can no longer receive mobile data. I realize this is a very common problem and have searched through multiple forum posts here and elsewhere online. I also flashed a new kernel in an attempt to fix it (not sure of the name, found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1073626).
Mobile data will appear (and work) for the first 10-15 seconds after startup if wifi is disabled but then vanishes afterwards. I have tried changing the mobile network settings and apn settings in a number of ways but no method ever works (most of the ones found online appear to be at least a year old so perhaps I just need more modern entries). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The CM team has yet to fix this, and I doubt it ever will be fixed. It's present on all AOSP based ROMS. I guess if they set the modem to reset on bootup, it could fix it, but I have no idea how to do that.

I've also tried wiping the cache and dalvik cache with no effect. I have also installed a custom kernel with no effect. I am not entirely sure what you mean by fixing permissions.
Edit: searched and figured it out. Tried fixing permissions in combination with the other two options. Still no effect.
Sorry to bump an old topic but I accidentally reflashed Cyanogen (pressed wrong zip in recovery) and now it's working so if anyone else has this problem, try doing a factory reset and then reflashing old data.

[Q] Unable to send/receive MMS

I have been unable to send or receive MMS messages to/from anyone. Outgoing messages just get stuck at "sending" and I've had multiple people try to send me an MMS. I believe my APN settings are correct based on other threads here. Has anyone else seen/dealt with/have a solution for this bug?
I'm currently running CM10.1 April 8 Nightly off of a clean complete wipe flash, but I believe the problem has occurred with prior versions as well.

I saw some commits related to unicode encoding with the MMS app. It's possible (Disclaimer: I am not a dev, these are just theories) that these have something to do with the MMS issue. You could extract the MMS.apk from a prior build (where your MMS was still functional) and push it to /system/apps, rename your current MMS.apk to MMS.bak (just in case), set permissions to R-W, R, R, then reboot. If that works then we know there's an issue with the CM commits to the MMS.apk.

What that means is that your APN's might not be configured properly. Compare them to the ones listed here. If that doesn't fix the MMS issue then we'll have to investigate further.

I've put in a trouble call with AT&T hopefully they find something....
So according to AT&T there are no network problems but my phone is not responding to push notifications from them. They want me to bring it into a "core" store to have it checked out (not going to happen on behalf of the rooting/custom ROM). I'm wondering if my Android ID#/device hostname may have changed when I did a full wipe? Although I'm not even sure that would have any effect on my problem. I'm just tossing out ideas.

If I were you I'd just make a nandroid backup of my current setup, transfer that (and any other important data) to either my external or PC, ODIN back to stock and head over to an AT&T store. Just my two cents. You can always re-root and flash a custom ROM again. If you'd corrupted something through flashing (not saying you did, just a thought) getting AT&T to straighten it out and then going custom from there might be your best option.

Sinnce AT&T uses the IMEI number as the ID for the device, that wouldn't be the issue you aren't receiving push messages. I agree with mrfeuss, back up the phone, flash the stock rom, and go have AT&T fix it on their end. Then you can re-root and install your custom ROM again. Better to have them look at it than live without MMS.

Just used Odin to flash back to stock. After the Odin reboot how long should it take for the phone to start up? I've been sitting on the ATT logo screen for a few minutes now.... please don't tell me I bricked....
Never mind, figured out my own mistake..... Always factory reset/clear data before flashing!

Wifi unable to reconnect when coming back in range

I have this rather annoying problem with my OPO: When I'm on WiFi and go out of range and get within range of another WiFi (eg leaving from home in the morning and getting on the train where there's also WiFi) my OPO will not connect.
I've tried switching WiFi off and back on, tried forgetting network and connecting again but the network just displays as "Saved". Only thing that works is a reboot. Funny thing is that it actually detects open WiFi's and displays the question mark in the notification bar.
I've read that themes can cause WiFi problems so I haven't changed that. I'm using the Apex launcher with no visual changes.
I've rooted my phone but left the bootloader locked.
Any advice?
I'm rooted with the TWRP custom recovery installed. I had the same thing happen to me. If you toggle airplane mode on/off, it will reconnect. But, as for a solution, my fix was to restore a previous TWRP backup of my phone. I also had heard that the problem could be coming from a theme. What themes have you used? I bought the Flux theme and have been using its style and fonts. I was running the stock CM11s when this happend just a few days after getting my OPO. I would try a factory reset first. If that does not work, there is a thread in the OPO forums about flashing a factory image and getting back to 100% stock.
I have switched to the CM11 nightlies as of a couple of days ago. I will probably refrain from messing around with the theme packs for now.

I really hate to hear that you are still having the wifi issue. One would think that if you flashed all partitions with a factory image that it would solve the problem. You might want to have a look at this thread. This guy was unsuccessful in fixing his efs and bluetooth problems until he flashed Color OS and then went back to CM.

Been there. Done that. Read the book. Got the t-shirt.
Flashed ColorOS.

Booted and got through into ColorOS (skipped account setup).
Booted into recovery.
Factory reset.
Restore backup of CM11S.
No dice :'-(
What are my options now?
A couple of days ago I completely wiped my OPO - radio, modem, everything and flashed a new stock image. Nothing has helped.
I really find it hard to believe this to be a hardware issue.

I was having the same issue, but here's what I did and it seems to have resolved my issue.
1) Updated firmware on my ASUS AC68 router
2) Boot into recovery mode (volume down+power), wipe cache and media, then factory wipe
3) When setting up phone, did not apply CM theme on the options after logging into CM account.
It seems like WiFi might drop when you get to homescreen, just reboot phone and Wifi should reconnect. Make sure to go into your WiFi settings and remove any networks that was saved, and re-add.
Still not ideal (since it seems like themes might be killing WiFi for some users), so hopefully a new OTA update will solve this problem.

No Data Connection

Hi everyone,
Could really use your help. I tried updating my phone to Lineage OS and post update, my phone's data connection stopped working. I've tried flashing different firmwares to see if it fixes the problem and it didn't. I went back to my old backup, and the problem continues. I can't access any data connection (no phone, or text either).
Any idea on what could have caused the problem. My steps were basically:
Backed up old Sultan 12.1 Rom
Installed Lineage using TWRP 2.8.7.0
Installed latest Gapps mini
Installed the bacon_firmware_update_2015_05-15_DI.3.0.c6-00241.zip
And data problems began
Now i've tried redoing the steps with the latest recovery and it doesn't change anything. And as previously mentioned, I'm having data connection problems in my old backup as well

Yup, I reverted back to my old backup and no flashing of firmware, and it's still messed up.
Found out that my IMEI isn't showing up so that could be the problem. Went through "the entire internet" and found some fixes, trying them now to see if I can get something to work.
Edit: I flashed to CM13.1 stock. But my IMEI is still not showing up. No idea what to do next. My phone connects to the network, but doesn't let me do anything considering it can't find an IMEI.

Thanks, I believe you're right. But I've tried flashing other firmwares. My phone's IMEI shows up in the about section, but my data connection comes and goes. You think following the steps you linked will fix that problem considering my IMEI seems fine now?
sarmadical said:
Yup, I reverted back to my old backup and no flashing of firmware, and it's still messed up.
Found out that my IMEI isn't showing up so that could be the problem. Went through "the entire internet" and found some fixes, trying them now to see if I can get something to work.
Edit: I flashed to CM13.1 stock. But my IMEI is still not showing up. No idea what to do next. My phone connects to the network, but doesn't let me do anything considering it can't find an IMEI.

It's not just your imei,it's your EFS and modem.
You should've backup your Efs before playing with things.

Yup, lesson learned. And I've tried a bunch of efs recovery solutions:
the persist flash you listed
The Windows fix patch from oneplus https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/no-imei-and-no-efs-backup.322534/page-2
deleting modemst files https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-efs-partitions-how-to-lost-t3307793
I had it partially working at one point but going through this solutions just messed things up more.

Type this command in fastboot.
fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn
Sbl1 from stock can fix the imei issue.

Are you talking about flashing stock from the thread you linked above? I'm not on the stock firmware from the fix above, I'm on stoch CM13.1.2.
Should I go back to stock CM11 from the fix above? Or can I just extract the sbl1 file from the package and flash it in fastboot?
Okay, I finally got my IMEI back using this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-efs-partitions-how-to-lost-t3307793, and flashing stock oxygen OS through their recovery rather than TWRP.
But now, although it reads my sim, my phone doesn't connect to the internet, and when it does, it doesn't connect to 4g. I still can't use data services despite having the baseband and IMEI fixed. So now what are the next steps? Could my hardware be broken?

I installed lineage, still no data connection. Honestly about to give up on this phone. Is there a good stable rom that I should use?
I've tried Lineage and now Sultans CM13, but still no data man. Just my sim stuff is acting weird, and i know my sim is fine. I'm switching carriers and ordered a new sim. I'm hoping somehow changing carriers helps, otherwise I'm **** out of luck.
Edit: Ok, so on Sultan's CM13 I've finally got the data working, but it only works when its on H+ (4g) otherwise no internet/voice/ text. So is there a fix this?

4G is Lte not H+(3G).
Yeah maybe OPO doesn't support the band your carrier uses for data.

Nope, not the case as I've been using the phone for the last 2 years. I read up that the switch between H+ and 3g happens because the carrier only sends data through H+ not 3g, so it happens to every phone, not just the OPO. But now my problem is, I can't send texts over 3g.
I'm going to wait and see what happens when I get a new carrier's sim.

you've mentioned that you are using twrp 2.8.7.0, can you try twrp from here and re flash firmware and report back?
Just flash the .img file via twrp
Also, use this firmware : link

He already tried using the latest recovery...
Thanks for the help guys, I think in this case it was more of a carrier problem. I learned that Wind has been updating their infrastructure causing some network problems. Couple that with a finnicky OPO and you get headaches.
My new carrier seems to be working better (but I've only had the new sim for an hour). Going to do a full day test and see what happens.
Thanks again.

Insufficient storage error when installing certain apps

I followed the instructions given to me in my "new here" thread and was able to wipe my OS and install resurrection remix 7.1.2 last night. However, I was only able to install gapps mini and now I can't take a screenshot or install other items like google chrome or facebook. However, I was able to install other apps like firefox. I've tried a factory reset, removing my google account from the play store and re-adding it. It should definitely not be a cache problem as the install is brand new. I even used twrp wipe on all folders and reinstalled RR and still no change. Do I need to repartition or just try another mod?
*edit*
I found another thread here through a search that had a very similar issue to mine, but it looks like they were able to resolve theirs by uninstalling some app (they didn't say what). I'm having this with a fresh install, every time. So that fix didn't work for me, and I couldn't find anything else.
As an update to this issue, I have been able to install OkCupid (I'm a single girl, what can I say?) and the Android WebService that it required to function. Still have original issue though.

Yeah, I think it might be the resurrection remix mod. I think after I get off work tonight I'm going to try the newest CM13? mod listed here and see if that doesn't help

It ain't no mod.I'm taking about using open gapps instead of whatever gapps you were using before.
The mod I'm referring to is the resurrection remix which is the OS mod. I used the open gapps mini with that OS, so I've tried that.

What does PS say when you try to install facebook,etc?
It just says downloading and never changes. I also don't get the notification in the status area indicating it's downloading. It doesn't ask for permissions either, I don't know is that's normal for a rooted phone or not

One of the first things I did yep. It's almost as if the system storage is somehow full or locked or something.

Well, here's why I don't think that's it. After flashing the OS, I tried to flash the super version of the open gapps. That was a huge file, almost a gig I think, so when that errored out I wasn't surprised. So when I tried the stock at 700 mb, and that failed, I tried the mini. That was 200 mb, and when that flashed successfully, I got suspicious. So I do think it's an issue with the system partition. I know the resurrection remix was a few GB in size, so perhaps it was too big. I haven't tried downloading CM13 or any others yet, so I don't know if there's a huge size difference or not. But I think that may be what it was. Just too big for our phones.

System partition has a size,just like internal storage has.Though,in the former case,you can increase it,but there's no point in increasing it,as you can just flash mini/nano/pico gapps and install all the other G-Apps you need after that.Infact,stock/heavy gapps is nothing but bloatware.
Anyway,what I meant was, flash other gapps except opengapps:

I think I just figured it out. I went outside on break and went to take a selfie to test the camera for this OS, and voila, it told me to enter an SD card. So it looks like it may be some sort of permissions issue. I'll just re-flash it with a different OS later. I'm not really attached to this one anyway. Brand new phone, nothing to back up.

So, I flashed DotOS last night, everything is working. Looks like Resurrection Remix was the problem. Thanks again!
