HBOOT-0.35.0017 and 3g connectivity issues read here - Nexus One General

EDIT: The problem is still occurring. I thought it was fixed.
Myself and a couple other people experienced stange 3g connection problems while running the cm7 nightlies (among other ROMs) with the new HBOOT-0.35.0017. I know it's been said that HBOOT shouldn't have anything to do with your data connection but nonetheless it is causing problems.

Thanks!

I'm sorry to tell you, but hboot has NOTHING to do with the radio part of the phone: it controls the system partitions table and boots the system... nothing else, it doesn't even touch the RAM parts dedicated to the hardware, the kernel does it.

I almost made up my mind to downgrade until seen the edit part. 3g part of signal is very very frustrating experience on my side while call part rarely let it down. Also signal always in close to100 reading while my Acer liquid on T Mobile stays to perfect 75-80 reading.

I'm on HBOOT-0.35.0017 and sometimes I get x gray bars but after it picks up signal and gets connect to H it seem to work fine. Until I lose the signal or I switch to airplane, etc. Takes a while sometimes to get back signal or the H.
I did notice that when the screen goes off my download stops or sometimes when I download certain files it stops right away. I been updating roms so not sure if it related to them, but overall its been like that.

yes screen off downloading stopping is quite annoying...

I dunno but since I upgraded my Hboot and used CM7... my data sucks. It will work then not work. I typically have to reset to get it back. Even switching in and out of airplane mode will not work.
And by 3G I mean my data connection. I'll have full bars and 3G coverage... but no data from the browser, no pings, no online apps, nothing. Seems like the only way to fix it is to reset the phone.
I also noticed my signal is noticeably less at home. Typically I have full bars but now I notice that it's been dropping out and bouncing.
Could be a carrier issue. But I haven't upgraded my radio since 5.08 first came out. I updated my HBoot for the early builds of GB. So I'm willing to test out this theory.

lol, hboot has nothing to do with the phone's radio. The radio version does.
If you're having a problem with the radio (voice/data) then you should look at the radio version you're running.
Again, hboot has nothing to do with your issue.

Ive had the data sticking problem since I got my n1. Remember reading somewhere that if you go into settings - wireless networks - mobile networks - network operators, when it finishes searching select "automatically select". I got T-Mobile & it works for me until the next time I flash a new rom.

FYI when I was on CM 6.1 I had your problems. I then switched to MicroMod777's Gingerbread and those problems disappeared. I've now flashed Enmother's TheOfficial Nexus1 and I'm testing. Absolutely a ROM problem.

Kinda the opposite for me. No data issues when i tried CM 6.1.1 but on MM Gingerbread i had no data connection at all!

Same here. I tried MM and nothing worked! lol. So I went back to the latest CM7 (#24). I'm not sure what the problem is. Now I'm on an older HBoot and an older Radio. I shoulda just left 5.12 and .35 on there.
Once I get my phone pieced back together, I may try one of the older CM6.1 roms to see if that fixes it. I think we are all using Gingerbread roms here, no? Perhaps that just is an issue that comes with it.

Same issue here, wondering if this hboot is incompatible w/ my old radio.
just received my new nightly, will give this method a try as soon as i upgraded.
thanks!
-- just saw the updated post, thanks anyway

Perhaps the OP should change the title and original message to exclude the HBoot details as the problem is with Data connection.
This will let us continue discussion about the data connection problem that we are, I am at least, experiencing.
Using CM7 #24 from 1/30, it seems to be less of an issue. I notice that I'll have 3G and full bars, but no data will work until it changes to an "H". Seems like it might just be the rom. The latest nightly seems to correct the issue better then before. Now if I open a browser, after 30s-1minute, it will start chugging along.

HTC Magic Port Radio Issues (SOLVED)

(solution at the bottom of this post)
Hey, ive searched for a little while now and i havnt found a solution, so if i missed it im sorry just point me in the rigth direction. In the mean time, here is my issue:
Its the same issue with:
4.5
4.9
5.0
(these are the only onces ive used)
all downloaded from:
http://code.google.com/p/sapphire-port-dream/
now ive wiped before flashing each update, and even wiped after the update, ive even gone back to rc29 and then trying again
when i get the phone to finish booting up, my radio gives me issues, it will show full bars, then none, then full, then none, never showing edge, so i go into wireless settings and realize that every 20 seconds or so, airplain mode is coming on for a half a second then going back off, without me clicking it, but when it does this, it never shows the airplane icon where it does if i click it myself in the top status bar
now if i manage to dial out a call at the right time, it will keep the full bars, and dial out properly, i can have a half hour phone call or longer without a problem, when i hang up, i have full bars AND edge for atleast a hour or so, and then i drop edge all of the suddon and go back into the airplane loop, inwhich a simple phone call (even to voicemail) fixes it temporarily
this issue happens as soon as i reboot the phone as well, as it starts up, it shows no connection, then emergency calls only, then tmobile, and repeats
when under mobile settings when trying to select a network manually if im lucky for it to show tmobile and at&t, 90% of the time it tells me it cant connect to tmobile due to my sim. if i keep clicking it it will say registering to network, but it will stay in the loop with the airplane mode flickering on and off
again, if this is something stupid im missing, or if its been explained elsewhere, my bad just point me in the right direction, but either im not searching for the right thing or ive just completely missed it, either way, someone help me before i have to go back to JF 1.42, im really enjoying this magic port
Ok, so thanks to the suggestion to "update the radio" and Google for pointing me in the right direction. I did as follows, and so far, so good.
Download this file to SD card
http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecode.com/files/Saphire-Radio-Update (rc33).zip
Saphire-Radio-Update (rc33).zip Sapphire Radio 2.22.19.23
Rename it update.zip
Reboot Phone in Recovery
(I wiped, this may not be needed, but I did anyway)
Alt + S to install the update
the phone will ask you to do the home + back to reboot, press it and it will do a few other things, including reboot into a screen with a arror pointing at a microchip, then it will reboot back into recovery
hit the home + back yet again to perform another reboot and it will boot up normally and so far, ive yet to have an issue with my radio after this
wootroot-
THANK GOD I AM NOT ALONE!!!!
This problem has been plaguing me as well with all of these new builds!!!
Ultimately I ended up going back to JF 1.42 MOD because I needed a working phone.
I flashed to 5.0G tonight... and its doing the same thing... radio on then radio off. I tried flashing to the new Sapphire radio... nothing works.
I would love for someone to come up with a working solution.
Thanks!

i feel the same way, i thought it was just me
there has to be something im missing, so many other people use these builds without issues like this, there is no way someone could put up with this issue and use the phone as a daily phone reliably
if you want to have 5.0 (well i flashed H not G but im sure it would work regardless) time a phone call to your voicemail when your radio flashes on and when it vibrates saying the call connected, hangup, and everything will be fine for a few hours
do me a favor though, read over the stuff i just added to my first post, see if your phone is doing anything different than mine, that way when someone who comes in here and is able to help, they know exactly what our phones are doing, and hopefully its not just us with this issue and it will get others in the trend of explaining in detail what is wrong with theres, maybe this will help speed up getting a solution lol (wishful thinking?)
I am redoing things once again.... reflash, etc.
Keeping my fingers crossed.
But it's late and I am tired and annoyed.
If it happens again... I will try to make a video of whats happening so others can actually see it.
I thought I was going crazy I'm on 5.0G now the new one which adds busybox but I've been having the same exact problem as the OP but I haven't tried the Sapphire Radio yet but we all seem to experience different issues anyway.

no fun, sorry your having issues too, you say we are having different issues, could that be because we are using the HTC code and your using the GOOGLE code? or did i misunderstand you?
can you explain a little more about the sapphire radio vs other radios? ive been trying to understand what the difference is, and how to switch between them, but so far im unable to find a clear answer, so can you tell me the difference and how to switch between them?
thanks for your help
EDIT:
oh and what do you use busybox on the g1 for? i just read up on it (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BusyBox) and i have a general idea of what it is now, but whats the use of it on the g1? do you use it as kind of a DOS for the g1? is it more for developers than end users?
This problem has happened to me but seems as all I needed to do was to reupdate the radio. It worked for me!

Hi all, I've just rooted my phone (Australian release on Optus) and i was wondering if the radio update has regional limitations or not? Because i've heard positive things about it but I don't want to screw my phone up.

No 3g connection for no apparent reason

Hello,
I recently flashed the newest CM5.02 and it was fine. Then, yesterday in the middle of the day I noticed that my data had said E, which normally happens, but it never changed back to H (or 3g) no matter where I went, even to spots that I knew had full bars. Im in norcal, anyone else having this problem?
Yeah, mine does this all the time and I'm still stock. Are you on the newest radio as well as newest CM? This is my biggest radio issue.
Here at work where I don't get solid reception I see a lot of fluctuation HSPA to UTMS to EDGE and even down to GPRS sometimes which is fine, I am in a pretty solid bldg and my MT3G would slip as well. Issue is I can't get it back without doing what you did or switching between WCDMA Only then back to WCDMA Preferred basically anything to reset the radio. I notice this happens without fail if I take a call on it. I will lose all data connection until I hang up.
As well, when all this starts up real bad the phone will heat up quite a bit. When I leave my office things appear to be fine.
Didn't have this problem with the stock ROM

I'm using CyanogenMod 5.0.2 and radio 4.04.00.03_2 (from Settings -> About phone -> Baseband version), but I did NOT have this problem with the stock radio after the OTA update (4.03.00.21_2).
I posted a poll about this at Stuck on EDGE with CyanogenMod 5.0.2 until reboot.

That means you have the old ROM. The new one can be found on the CM5.0.2 page.
Also, in your first post, can you mention how you fixed your issue?

Bugs still present in Froyo 3.21.605.1 / Radio 2.15.00.07.28

Like many others, after updating to the leaked radio 2.15.00.07.28 a few weeks ago, market installs began hanging, and 3G didn't always start after powering on. The fix for the market hang is to manually stop and restart the download/install, and the fix for 3G is to enter and exit airplane mode.
Surprisingly, after RUU'ing with "RUU_Incredible_C_Froyo_VERIZON_WWE_3.21.605.1_Radi o_2.15.00.07.28", and then later wiping and applying "Incredible Sense/Froyo v3.21.605.1 *Official Release* (100% stock, rooted)" via Clockworkmod, these bugs are still present!!
If you originally installed the leaked radio, then updated to the "official" OTA, do you have these bugs?
If you never installed the leaked radio, but have installed (or received) the official OTA, are you seeing these bugs?
I'm still running the 7/27 release with some of the fixes. Baseband is 2.05.00.06.11.
Sometimes my 3G doesn't turn on, so I empathize. Rarely will I have that market problem, but it will sometimes happen.
....makes me think it isn't neccessarily a problem with the official release or the newer radio.....
I never installed early leaks or anything until I did the RUU file the other day. I do not experience either of those bugs.
If you did the RUU, then its as if you started with a stock Incredible.
For the 3G issue, what is your wifi sleep policy set at? Is it never?

After you flash the RUU it is always good to do a factory reset. I always do that since WinMo days and never have the bugs.
When I was on the leaked 2.15x radio and 2.2 I never had the 3G problem, but ALL the time, my market would hang like that and it would take 2-3 stop and starts to finally get the download going.
It's definitely the 2.15 radio, and not the OS. These problems occur after a fresh RUU, with a completely clean OS, both stock, and rooted. Also, Wi-Fi is off.
As a test, I restored back to the stock radio/rom following "[GUIDES] Root, nand unlock, radio update, Froyo 2.2 update, Restore stock radio/rom". While back to stock 2.1, and the 1.x radio, every single time after powering on the phone, the 3G icon appears after less than a minute, and data works fine. Again, with the original radio, 3G starts every time.
Next, I ran "RUU_Incredible_C_Froyo_VERIZON_WWE_3.21.605.1_Rad i o_2.15.00.07.28" and repeated the test. At least 50% of the time after powering on, the 3G icon doesn't appear, and there is no data...until airplane mode is turned on, then off.
Could someone running the "official OTA" please run this test? Make sure your Wi-Fi is off, then power off your phone. Wait a few seconds, and power it back on. Don't do anything after boot until the screen times out. Next, check for the 3G icon, and check data by starting your browser. Repeat this at least 3 times, and let me know the results!
I'm obviously VERY interested if my phone has a problem, or if others are seeing this. Thanks!
I upgraded the radio (from 1.00 to 2.15) via Diacius's guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=760651
Also installed RMK40's Official 2.2 ROM update: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=765930
All of it was done this weekend. No problems yet.
No I am not running the Official OTA but I am running the RUU. I did have the 3G failure one time on the first day but not since.
I ran your test 3 times and the 3G icon comes up every time. Last by the way. And yes, the internet works.
I know this is not what you asked for but hope it helps
I installed leaked version. Works GREAT! However a fw of my apps when I wanted to load them again through the market "The requested item could not be found"
Is this because they wont work with 2.2 or is something else?
Thanks

Note a couple of things here.
1. You should always reprogram your phone after installing a radio or rom. This tends tohelp with some of the drop outs. of 3G.
2. The RUU includes a PRI update that NONE of us have been able to flash, and is likely the answer to these random drop outs.
I did the RUU update and I have to say I am disappointed.
I am having doubt about the RUU being the same as the OTA.
Rosie reloads after exit from astro file manager, not always but a few times so far.
Screen brightness has a mind of it own and it took upward of 25 seconds for the screen to brighten up after an interaction (not the backlight, but the brightness).
Overall slowness, it might have better benchmark but feel sluggish.
It might be something on my part during flash, but I doubt it.
Google action is the only improvement for 2.2. Don't see anything to write home about on the 720p.
And that's all folks! nothing else that I personally use or care about that's an improvement over 2.1.
Astro crashes Rosie and you blame the OS?
Interesting.
I still have problems with the lock screen not wanting to unlock. I'll drag it to the bottom and it'll just bounce back up.
In 2.1 I could hit menu and all will be well, in the RUU theres no hope, I eventually had to restart the phone just to clear the lock screen.
I thought the RUU had improved my phone, but then I tried installing a deodexed version and **** hit the fan. I even tried going back to the regular 2.2 before I had installed the deodexed one and still had issues.
My problems:
Battery drains ultra fast, when barely using phone.
Market doesn't download stuff right
hot battery
I noticed the biggest culprit after viewing battery info was
Android System
Phone Idle
Cell Standby
I think it might be the radio that is causing the issue.
I am about to go to the 2.05 radio. Seems it was a better radio and had less issues.
Marketplace: I have had the issue with the market download stalling, but that's only happened when downloading multiple installs. I've never had it happen on a single install. Hardware or Software? Don't know yet, but I'd assume software is missing a reply ACK back to the server on the multiple downloads. Who knows.
Radio Issues: NEVER had the 3G problem. 3G is always going strong, unless I'm in the tunnels beneath the buildings here, then I drop to 1x or lose all connectivity. When I return to the surface, I'm back at 3G with no problems.
I've rebooted my phone probably 10 times since installing the RUU, 3G has always come up fine.

2.05x radio I think would just be worse.
how long have you been running 2.2??
You need to give it at least a week to settle down and everything.
It's like when you first got the phone my battery life sucked the first week until it settled it, it's the same way with going from 2.1 to 2.2.
I suggest charging to 100%. then wiping battery stats, and don't plug back in until phone dies, then use for a few days and see how that works. 2.15x radio is what comes with the official OTA 2.2 I don't understand why you would want 2.05 that's old news.
what makes you think your battery issues lie in the radio? just curious

Just seems to be the culprit because I did S-OFF
Then I installed 2.15 radio and then problems started.
So far all seems good. Market downloads aren't getting stuck and my phone isnt getting hot as all hell and my battery isn't dying really fast.

Some of the apps on the market won't work on 2.2 , most have been , or in the process being updated to 2.2.
I flashed the 8/26 leaked RUU to a stock 2.1 phone and my friends that did the same agree that we do not have the bugs named in this thread. They must only be in the the first leaked 2.15 radio. We never installed that radio.

Frequent WiFi disconnects with New ROM 3.14

After upgrading to ROM 3.14.531.1 my wifi connection disconnects frequently.
Anyone have this problem or know of updated wireless drivers?
I am having the exact same problem.
I used to get connection to the router throughout my house and now it is spotty at best with the new update.
I also noticed that my range is cut by 1/4 and signal strength is very sporadic

I haven't (I have not even installed HPSL), but here is the rub...my phone signal seems better...my connection to the router is worse!
Not sure if that is an equal trade-off or not (also not sure if I am accurate on the phone signal though)...(what's my name again?_)

The device does seem smoother though and battery life is greatly increased. Where I would usually be around 30% in the day I am at 50%!
Maybe I should just install an earlier radio, but I am nervous about doing that!
Battery life question
Fit those reporting implement in battery life, do you all keep all your radios on (bluetooth, wifi and 3g) all the time? I generally keep bluetooth off because it haas been giving me an additional half day of usage and, staying with this, I am not seeing any improvements in battery life. if anything, my battery life may actually be slightly worse with the new ROM.
I do have direct push email set to deliver instantaneously.
Also, with regards wifi, not seeing a signal issue but wifi drops after some period of inactivity. This was not the case with the previous radio. Like others, I am also very interested to see if anyone has rolled back to the previous radio with favorable results .

HardSPL3 and flashing the radio is so simple. I promise... Don't go back to 2.13, just HSPL and flash a radio. There is a thread in rom development that has all of the TMOUS radios... Just flash the radio back to 2.10.50.26. That's the stock radio from 2.13 Rom. If you want to private message me, I'd be glad to give you the step by step, but I learned what I know from reading threads on this site.

I do think the 2.15 radio is setup to disable your data if you are using wifi, and maybe as you suggested, turn off wifi if it's been idle for a while. Probably a way to save battery life... I had switched to the 2.10.50.26 radio that comes with the 2.13 ROM because the battery life wasn't great with the 2.15 Radio, but then I had also noticed before I flashed back to 2.10 Radio that I was getting full Edge at my buddy's house, where I normally have no signal at all. I decided to switch back to 2.15 radio and test the theory that the battery life gets better as the Rom "settles"... I'm not totally buying it because logically it doesn't make sense to me, but I'll try anything. That's how you learn stuff.
Thanks for the informative post, crisisinthecity! Keep its posted on erhart you find.
I have tried to adjust the power savings in advanced settings hoping that more power would keep the signal from disconnecting and give me better signal strength. Did not seem to have any effect
Hey guys.
I've got exactly same problem with the new ROM here in Holland. I am not T-mobile user.
I've posted my message on forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8709630&posted=1#post8709630[/url] but apparently nobody had similar issue there.
I've also contacted HTC support. Of course they started from giving me instructions how to setup WiFi. Finally after several iterations they realized what problem is about. Just today I had long conversation with them and they said that this issue is happened with only me but "they really want to understand the issue and try to help".
They were suggesting me to install the new ROM again and try to test in on different WiFi network - apparently they reluctant to do it themselves properly. I said I don't wan't do it as I don't wan't to waste my time on that and I want them figure it out themselves iby having more complains about new ROM.
I've bought theory that the issue is in radio and tried to install new ROM on top of old ROM with SSPL_RUU. It worked but even with old radio+new ROM ("only flash Splashe and OS image") WiFi issue was not fixed.
I am not going to do any experiments with my device until I will be sure the issue is completely resolved. Very disappointed indeed. Very happy with old good ROM 1.66.
I was having this problem until a few minutes ago since I flashed the 3.14 rom. When I flashed the ROm from january 25 ... UK ... It's the 1.66 ... the issue with my HD2 stopped ... just finsihing the setup of my phone again ... and the wifi is working perfectly.
I was just about to adopt the first procedures to send my the goddam hd2 to
fix by htc, when i decided to do this test.
man, I can't wait to get rid of this phone

Odd...I have been having the same issue and in contacting T-mo and HTC they both admit that this is a known issue and that they are working on it (no mention of whetehr or not they will release a new ROM to address and I doubt that they will).
yep, been having the same issue with 3.14 ROM, WiFi disconnects frequently.
this is not seen in previous versions of ROM. must be a botched job from HTC on the WiFi drivers.
this problem only happens with certain WiFi Access Points. So not everyone will experience this problem. that's why a lot of people can't relate to what we are experiencing.
Damn HTC.
I'm pretty sure this is not a problem of Radio, but rather the WiFi drivers in the ROM.

internet/data issue due to different rom?

Anyone here seeing some data issues on the D2 running Fission? I am in a major city, and it seem like I am kind of having some data issues since I starting running Fusion, specially when browsing the web. The internet seems to lag a bit, and connection seems a bit slow(good bit slower than normal). I got a message few times relating to the data connection. I want to say this could be a network issue, but my sister with a Droid Inc, says here data is fine? Any ideas?
Called VZW today up asking if there was an issue on their end, and they said no. Tech then told me to take out the battery for 10-15 seconds and they try the internet when back on. Tech said it could be due to the phone not properly switching from one tower to another. It did work, but about 2 hours latter I was having the same connection issue where pages would no open up, and data was a bit on the slow side. Did the same method again, and that worked. I didn't have this issue on the stock D2 rom, or with my Eris(well that always dropped 3G reception, this is full bars with connection problem). Could this be due to me being on Fission 2.2.2, or is it whole different matter not due to being in Fission? Thanks

Im running 2.2.2 and im not having that issue. My girl has a D1 and she gets the same crappy service i get i really dont think its the rom. And i dont think there is enough of a difference between 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 to have one get different reception than the other
Shot from my level 60 crossbow of awesomness!
Maybe it just my phone then? I guess will see what I can do.
Have your tried a root reset with a reinstall?
I have been having this problem, Data will just stop working all together. Text messages won't get sent or delivered. The 3G icon just shows uploading and not downloading or stops showing anything at all. I can't fix it unless I turn on Airplane Mode then back off or reboot the phone. Right now I'm running Fission 2.1 but I ran into Data issues with the default R2D2 rom.

So the issue your having is not related to a fission rom...
So, I may have solved the issue. I started clean again; cleared all data and status and stuff, then reinstalled 2.2.2, and then hard rested. Only thing I did different was not install the black status bar and all seems fine, and data seems normal.

I hate to say this man, but from my experience, the more "stuff" you throw on top of a rom, the more bugs your gonna encounter. And youll never have the same bug twice...
Why is that?

The issue may have arisen again, but I was on the market, so it not clear if that was the market issue many people are facing or it was a data issue.

Im not a dev or anything, but here is an example. I was having problems with a rom i was running last night, reboots and such. The very first thing the dev who made the rom asked me was if i was running a theme. Now, im not saying you shouldnt use custom themes or addons with these roms, but every device is different and will react different. And when your flashing 3-4 different themes over a rom trying to find one you like, or flashing addons then trying to undo them your gonna create some issues. Of course, and i remind you again that im not a dev, this is completely based on my experience, and opinion
I guess with themes that can make sense. I wonder what team defused has to say about this?
