Anyone running the fission rom seeing a 3G issue of any kind?
Not 3G but WIFI
I have 2.3.1 installed and have WIFI issues but I think its more my phone than the ROM.
You may want to check your radios version. In looking through the various ROMS I saw a couple of ways you could end up not updating the radio drivers, especially when mixing the OTA and ROM upgrades.
If you find yourself in this position it may be wise to SBF and then install Fission so you start with a clean slate, but thats a lot of work. The current radio drivers are 1.09.07P for the Droid X.
I'm having issues with both. I constantly have to connect, then dis/reconnect because my wifi won't transfer can data after several minutes of use.
I wouldn't think my problem would be with the radio as I just SBF'd before flashing 2.3.1.

After installing the 2.15 radio my downloadand up load decreased by almost half. I had kept my phone in the same position, coming from the stock radio I went from a .70 download to .45. The phone calls even seem alittle fuzzy. Also *228 took 2 minutes to update on my third try after getting error messages.
Any suggestions? I am rooted, forever, updated radio 2.15, stock 2.1 os. Will a froyo rom help this? Us there any known way to try 2.05?

What does the firmware update provide for the phone and I know I would have to flash sbf and get it due to the fact that im using fission 2.0 but. Im just curious as to what this firmware has for me. My phone is flying and it has been working amazingly overclocked at 1.25 and high 1700 quadrant scores and around 200mb free in memory at all times and I don't feel like losing all the hard work in setting my phone back up like it is just for a crappy new baseband so any info would be awesome. I also heard there is a radio update, may be wrong...

i installed the 2.3.20 OTA update and my phone is working good. If you read the verizon's readme for the update it details the changes, how much of that is fixes to the ROM and how much is from the kernel, radio, baseband updates i don't know but I always like to have the latest software.
Personally setting my phone up is pretty easy, usually only taking me 10 minutes. Connect to wifi and have my google account pulls my phone numbers, facebook account pulls pictures and the market saves the apps i've downloaded. My pictures are saved on the SD card so those don't change.
If i was you i'd SBF back to stock 2.2.20 or even SBF to 2.3.20 and install fission 2.X when its released later tonight.
I have been diligently searching for a thread to pop up along the lines of "GPS FIX" But I can't find any. I just wanna know if there is a definitive fix in the nightlies or not?
Not really. Some people are replacing their gps framework with one from an early nightly with generally working GPS. Other than that it seems different radios etc. Are having varying results.

Bad news here, I am on cm7 nightly 17, still without GPS( It worked only once).
The once worked method, which is replacing gps.vision.so from nightly #4 no longer works.

This is the issue I had. I didnt mind replacing the gps.vision.so from Nightly #4 into the new Nightly's but now thats not even working on Nightly #17. It seems the GPS issue is getting progressively worse.
I'm on RC2 and was able to get my GPS working by flashing the latest AUS radio image (12.28h.60.140f_26.06.02.27). Before flashing it I was still on the old version from tmobile (12.21.60.09b_26.02.01.15). After flashing the AUS radio image my GPS started working but I was having problems with the reliability and speed of my data connection, even standing less than 800' from a T-mobile tower I was getting 1.5Mb/s download at best and it would only come in bursts. At that point I flashed the T-mobile image (12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26) from the OTA update and my data problems were fixed, started getting a steady connection and 4Mb/s+ download standing in the exact same spot, AND my GPS was still working. I've rebooted my phone several times since then I used the GPS for about 2 hours strait yesterday so it seems to be persistent and stable.
I have found that if I leave my GPS ON before I flash a new nightly or ROM, that it works fine. I have only ran into the GPS issue a few times but that was because I had it off before I flashed a new build. Never messed switching RADIOs or anything.
Here is what I have done to fix issues:
-If I flashed a new CM7 Gingerbread ROM without GPS ON prior to the flash, I usually go back to CM6 and turn GPS ON and then reflash the CM7 ROM and it works.
-Yesterday had a strange issue though, I went to Flash a new CM7 nightly and sure enough I forgot to leave GPS ON. So I went back to CM6 and tried to turn GPS on and it didn't work. So I then Flashed one of the MIUI ROMs and that still didn't work. So then I tried Flashing the newest Nightly from CM again and it worked very wierd.
That has been my experience with this GPS issue. Some how I have managed to fix it myself without too much trouble. Hopefully this helps people with these issues.

This worked for me also. I backed up RC2 with gps on, flashed MIUI, and then restored and blam it worked! thanks, I needed this so badly.
I had this problem for a while as well. Flashing CM7 #3 did the trick for me. I downloaded a copy of xboarder56's stock GB test ROM today and I have to say it works flawlessly! Smooth and fast and with working GPS.

So from the input I gather that nightlies have not yet fixed the problem. Since I don't need the GPS until the summer I guess I can wait a month or two before searching again...
Gps works fine for me.

Fixed the GPS issue on CM7 by upgrading the radio:
Vision_RADIO_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17. It works just fine in the US.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=OKYRIPQW
To flash radio you must have radio s-off using gfree.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=855764
You need to downgrade to the stock kernel or CM 6.1.0 for gfree to work.
I'm not sure what the problem is either, but I decided to leave the GPS/Navigation running over one night. When I woke up, the GPS fixed itself. I haven't had a problem since then.
use these basic steps to try and fix the gps:

But does it work when you turn GPS on/off/on after rebooting? My GPS works fine after flashing a new radio till I turn it off and back on again.

Locks on within 5 seconds after reboot and turning gps on and off.
Edit: I got it to fail after flipping it on and off a bunch of times. Sigh.

Okay folks, if somebody could bring my issue to the attention of anybody who knows what to do about it I would appreciate it.
My issue is twofold:
1)I'm still getting random reboots with RandomROM Thunderhawk 3.3 despite the posting on the thread that says (NO MORE REBOOTS) Is there anything that can be done about this?
2)I checked my baseband version and the modem is still EC05, is there a way to flash or ODIN an EI22 modem for this ROM without getting a black screen when the icons should come up? Could this also be what's causing the reboots?
Thanks for anybody's help that is willing to give it.
Are you using a custom theme? And you have to flash the stickied modem delta. If you are using a theme, I would blame that.

I was using thunderhawk too and I had some reboots but onlyyyyy on the lockmod version. When I flashed the regular one I had no problems at all
And for basband I would probably try this
Nandroid backup
Flash "ec05 to ei22" its somewhere in the development section I believe
Reboot
If that doesn't work then a fresh new start is what I would Recommend
Odin back to stock
Root
Install cwm
Flash "eco5 to ei22" modem
Flash thunderhawk 3.3 (without lockmod if you could live without it)
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I got the EI22 modem here and flashed it in CWM and it worked well. Only problem I had with thunderhawk is the lockscreen mod, and I'm having data issues on wifi after the phone's been on a while.
I was ec05 but when I flashed the Thunderhawk and it changed to ei22. never had a problem. Got a wild hair up my butt to flash the shadow kernal 1.0.6. Never been happier. no reboots, wifi works perfect, and very responsive. running a live wall paper and still get awesome battery life. give it a try
I saw several posts from folks having some wifi-4g interaction problems...switching back and forth causing one or the other to fail...is that a common problem to all 3.3 users, or are most people not seeing it? I want to give this a try, but I use 4g (at work) and wifi (home) everyday, so I'd like to see how common that issue is. I'm currently on Mostly-stock with Nubernel's latest released kernel...
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
So...bummer. I guess I answered my own question...I installed Thunderhead 3.4.3 and sure enough... I have wifi and 4g problems. Seems like going back and forth between the two causes issues...had it fail going both ways today. On a positive...man, that ROM seems pretty nice and his new install process rocks...was seamless going from Mostly Stock...

You could always try a clean install with doing a factory data reset in CWM and wiping Dalvik, flash ROM, check to see if stuff works, then do an advanced data restore from your last nandroid. If you stll have problems then the best bet is to set everything up fresh after the clean install.

The deal with the wifi/4g issue is that 4g will show 0.0.0.0 for ip, baseband, and dns if used after wifi in most cases. This is on official releases of 3.3 and newer. If you turn off wifi, reboot, then turn on 4g it should work. This is oviously annoying. Random provided me with alpha builds of 3.4 and 4.0, and the issue was squashed for me. However, the issue still persists in 3.4.3 official release according to some reports. I have limited access to 4g and can only test on certain days.
Thunderhawk is in a transitional period right now, and 3.4.5 should be released today. Random is hopeful this might solve some issues, including the dialer issues some are reporting with the 3.4 official builds. After that his focus will be on 4.0, which is EL30 based. Consider anything from 3.4 on a beta, and only run it if you want to help find bugs. Obviously you don't mind reporting or I wouldn't be replying lol. Just follow the threads and wait untill it looks stable enough for your usage needs.

Thanks! I certainly wasn't busting on Random's work...and I know he has limited access to 4g for testing, so that makes it harder for him to verify these things. So
I absolutely saw what you describe going from wifi to 4g. Going from
4g to wifi, I had wifi that wouldn't turn on at all (error when trying to enable), and, like you and others have mentioned, a reboot resolved both cases. I will hang out and see if he pushes out a fix soon, and just eagerly await 4.0. If it gets too annoying, I'll restore to my
Mostly Stock... Hmmm... Is there an issue restoring an rfs backup if I am now on ext4? Heh...

Just installed the latest 3.4 revision...I think...Heh. The update was so fast its hard to tell!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
And...confirming...the wifi/4g issue persists. 4g ip address is messed up on the first connect after being on wifi...reboot resolves.

I have a Samsung Fascinate from Verizon Wireless.
Up until two days ago, it used to work perfectly on Android Froyo Superclean 2.8.
I had that ROM for about a year and a half and never thought of updating my OS up until two days ago.
At first, I discovered that I could get Gingerbread for my phone (not a stock version though).
I looked on the internet and I ended up flashing C-Spire Wireless Gingerbread 2.3.6 by accident.
When I finally finished all of the updating on that, I tried to go on the internet but it was not functioning the way it used to.
Most of the time, my phone could not connect to the 3G network, and when it did, it was very slow and disconnected every minute or so.
So, I then flashed the stock version of Gingerbread 2.3.5 for Verizon, but when I finished doing that, I still found that my internet was extremely buggy.
I also tried to install some radios on my phone to see if that helped, but it did not.
Shortly after, I stalled Superclean3 milestone 2 but the internet issue was not solved.
After that, I installed TSM Resurrection 2.2. The internet problems were still there.
Then, I went and installed ICS. Internet was still buggy.
I then got Jelly Bean from Cyanomod. The internet was still the same.
Then I went back to the stock Gingerbread 2.3.5. My internet is still really annoyingly horrible and I don't know what to do.
Any solutions please?

Only thing I can think of is follow droid styles guide in the forums

To go back to stock you need to flash the the pit file to repatriation and put everything back in order. Found the forum in fascinate android development about going back to stock Verizon rom. I had a 3g issue when I first flashed AOKP b40. Going back to stock worked perfect to fix data. Then back to ics on AOKP. And if your gonna flash an ics rom make sure you flash THS build 2 first to lay the ground work for the next ics rom of your choice.

Maybe your radio got corrupted somehow? Try flashing a bunch of different ones to see if it helps... all that info is found in droidstyle's guide
edit: Oops sorry, somehow I skimmed over that part saying you already tried different radios. I agree with the above though, go back to stock via droidstyle's guide and see what happens...
I just stumbled across something that may help you... read this and try it out... some people have reported data issues being resolved after doing that update. I've never done it myself, but I think I'm going to start making it a habit
