Hello,
I have a MT4G, s-OFF, running eViL 4G-HD v.0.3.3 ROM with the Sense Kernel 1.0.
I am having very poor data connectivity issues. My 3G will only send out data (upstream) but no down stream. This will go on for 5-10 mins sometimes and then 4G will kick in and everything works fine for a few minutes. If the phone 'tries' to hard to gain connectivity it will freeze and reboot itself. Its becoming a pain in the ass... I have done alot of research on this and people on XDA say that a Sense ROM shouldn't have these issues, yet I am. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated!
I had the same issue. All I did was revert to my latest nandroid backup.
Would be nice to find out what the issue is.

Ok I found a fix for the problem, what I did was completely wipe the phone, EVERYHTING! Flash on a new rom, sense or not, download the stock radio image from the link provided. Flash the stock radio onto you're device from H-Boot. Please follow all directions given in that thread to ensure your phones survival.
At first its a tad slow but picks up speed and data will remain constant. This worked for me and may not work for others but give it a try, hopefully this will fix any data/cell signal loss!

Suffered from the same problem over the weekend. My Wife and i both had the problem. I ended up going to the Leaked MySense ROM and it's faster than before.

Where is the leaked mySense rom? And what is it? I've been away from the forums for quite some time. Trying to play catch up is taking a while.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had the same problem about a month ago. I used the pd15img to restore completely to stock, rerooted and flashed back to my rom of choice and everything worked perfect.

I was running originally DamageControl Sense 2.1 ROM w/Espresso. FANTASTIC ROM!!! Like a **** i went against the cardinal rule "if it aint broke dont fix it". I decided to go to DamageControl v2.0r2. Big mistake. The speed difference was noticeable (slower sadly enough with my experience) and then I encountered the wifi issues, the sync issues, the overheating, my battery going to **** as a result. This upset me more than anything else because after the fact in searching through the thread after it was up for awhile more and more of these issues were coming up but the thread's title and most of the info on it still read 100% WORKING OMG WTFBBQ ECT!. This should have been changed. Neither here nor there. SOOOOO.... I decide to go back to DamageControl Sense 2.1 ROM w/Espresso which is what i was using before i switched to DamageControl v2.0r2. AND NOW THE BOOT LOGO HANGS. So I decided lets try Darch's v4.2.2, AND AGAIN STUCK AT BOOT LOGO. So I decided to go to Fresh again, I was using fresh 2.0 and loved it at one point so I flash the rom and O WAIT ITS STUCK AT THE BOOT LOGO. I see DamagedTrev rom and I would love for this to work. Its what Damagev2.0r2 should be. (IMHO of Course) AND IT GETS STUCK ON THE BOOT LOGO.
Here is the list of actions I have taken:
Between each flash I wipe both data/cache
Not using Apps2SD
Latest Version of RA
and as a last resort
I UNROOTED AND STARTED FROM SCRATCH!! AND STILL NOTHING.
Sorry if its a rant. I am not calling out devs. I am not ungrateful. I am not a noob. (I am just covering the possible flames) I just want an answer. Its not a single release. Its a variety of them. Nobody really came out and said it but in searching (yes again covering the flames) i can only guess it might be the PRI issue, If so please confirm.
I know you say you unrooted, but try flashing a 1.5 ROM, such as Pancake. Also, try downloading the ROM again, as I think the very first time I tried flashing the new DC, I got the same problems as you. I downloaded again, and it flashed successfully.

Nothing is going to make absolutely sure nothing goes wrong. Plenty of people who had never even rooted their phones had issues with the last original OTA. Its always safer to be as close to stock as possible when doing an OTA update just to be safe though.
Personally, the custom roms are already so stable and well done I can't imagine waiting for the TMO official update. I'm currently running Axura 2.0.5...feeling the Froyo love on a super fast rom. Nothing that comes from TMO is going to be close to this in performance.

I agree. I waited on T-Mo and waited on them. Finally said screw it and flashed Axura. Amazing rom. I will not go to an official rom unless it will clean my house for me.

Hey guys.. My Shift 4G has been rooted for quite some time, and I had been running CM 7.1 RC1 most recently.. After the past several weeks, I have experimented with various ROMs and Radios.. At one point I did upgrade the radio firmware to 1.08.00.0506 and the WiMax Radio to 27240.
I had also experimented with the rooted 2.76.651.4 Sense ROM posted by x99percent.. I wasn't thrilled with Sense, and ended up going back to CM7.1 RC1.. I also downgraded the radio 1.07.00.1129 and WiMax back to 27167.
Since I was playing around with the various ROMs and Radios, my Shift will never charge above 85%.. I am familiar with clearing batterystats.bin - and had tried various measures to get the battery to charge above 85%.. I used Battery Monitor, and it showed that basically around 85%, the Shift was turning off the internal charging circuit (Current would show usually less than 100mA..)
Thinking that perhaps something was sticking around from my various experimentations, I decided to use the original RUU (RUU_Speedy_Sprint_WWE_1.17.651.1_Radio_1.07.00.1129_NV_SPCS_1.52_1103_release_160079_signed) to revert back to stock and start over.
One of the things that came up when I ran the RUU was it showed the current image version as 2.76.651.4.. This was even though my radio was 1.07.00.1129. Does anyone know why that would be reported that way?
I'm currently on the original sense RUU, and now it appears to be charging correctly. Once it does, I'll re-root and go back to CM7.1 RC1.
Thanks,
Rick

Once your on the RUU how are you going to root again with a s-on bootloader?

Sorry about posting to the wrong forum.. I PM'd the mod to have it moved to Evo Shift 4G General.
The thing that did not make sense to me was the fact that I had restored my Nandroid backup from CM7.1 RC1, and restored the radio with the bootloader to 1.07.00.1129. I ran the RUU against CM7.1 RC1 and radio version 1.07.00.1129.

I used the orignal RUU for Froyo -- not the Gingerbread RUU.
Oh my bad haha. I was about to say...you should be good to re-root then no? I flashed the new radio's manually just fine over cm7. Still on the same radio's and cm7 to this day

I've done trashed my wife's phone twice tonight. I've managed to get it back to normal again both times. I'm done messing with it. I need some direction please?
Right now, it has the latest ROM from the OTA updates from Verizon.
Everything I try to put on it seems to brick it
Do I need to update the radio?
Do I need to install the lag fix?
Which ROMs are current for this thing?
I just need something clean. A slimmed down stock ROM would work well, too. She just wants better battery life, and for the damned stuttering to go away.
Any help is sincerely appreciated.
Thanks!
wrong section
download a new launcher, either go launcer ex or launcher pro plus. that should get rid of the stuttering (i'm assuming she meant stuttering from navigating the home screen and such)
do the typical things to reduce battery usage
-turn off wifi
-turn off data when not being used
-lower brightness
-properly calibrate battery by letting it empty and charging, while turned off, to full a couple of times before using.
Okay. Wrong section. Can we move it please?
And from Japots suggestions, should I take that as, don't root and put a new ROM on it?

Not if you don't know what you're doing. Do his suggestions first then read up some guides on here, Android central and rootzwiki to learn what you are doing first.

I'd like to think I know what I'm doing. I've rooted my Tbolt and flashed it more times than I can count.
I rooted the Fascinate two months ago and flashed a new ROM (can't remember which). It was acting funny so I wanted to put another ROM on it. I tried flashing Espresso and something went horribly awry.
Is there not a simple way to update the ROM on the Fascinate like there is on the Tbolt using something like Clockwork?

Exactly which roms did you flash, if you went from Stock, and then went to espresso that might be your problem, since Espresso needs Clockwork version 4 or higher.
It was Community ROM TSM I think?
Here's what I need. A basic, ROM. Even the stock tweaked and stripped down. That would be just fine. Any suggestions?
start a new thread in the q&a section and ill help you get dialed in!
Hi guys,
I don't like when people post "how do I root my phone?" when you can search 100 threads to root your phone, so I was hesitant to post this, but I've been away a year or whatever it's been, and I see a whole bunch of new ROMS that are totally unfamiliar to me.
I chose Royal Ginger 1.6 (based on android 2.3.3) way back when (still have it) because I thought it was a stable, non-SENSE plain android ROM that was much faster than the sense that came with my mytough 4g. And I was right. I know it was updated to 2.0 and then the DEV stopped, or whatever the demise was.
I didn't update to 2.0 at the time since I have one of the "bad chips", so it wasn't compelling enough to risk something that was working fine.
I'm getting the itch again to update my phone - it's cheaper than getting a new 4.0 phone and a new contract and $$$. Figured if I slap jelly bean on this it'll make it feel like I got a free upgrade.
Mostly I'm after something that is solid and not something I'd look back and say "why didnt I just leave well-enough lone?" where I'd lose functionality in things I'm used to. (camera etc)
What's the new Royal Ginger nowadays? What's the no brainer ROM to flash when reliability and compatibility is concerned?
Should I go back to entertaining CM nightlies? It seems that some of the andoid v3 ROMS are stable, and what about andoid v4-- isnt that too much of a reach to make compatible with this aging glacier that we have? Not too buggy to use a jelly bean aopk 4.x.x on this?
Thanks for any input
If u wanna stay aosp wuth everything working I suggest cm7.2 stable or nightly that GB For ICS/JB I suggested AospX, or Dark Jellybelly or the port O.O all pretty stable with little to no bugs

if so, looks like plain android base of ICS, plus optimizations.
that sounds like what i need. still looking, but this is a good candidate.
funny, when you dont think of these things for a year, you get wobbly on the details.

I plan on building the milestone release tonight, so go ahead and take your time into getting back into things (unless you're eager to try BR7 ). I might be able to get it released tonight as well if everything goes right.

Thanks man. Read on another thread here you released the milestone or RC. I'll have to check it out.
question for you or anyone else reading this - maybe on that other thread I read about a guy who got into some boot loop trying to flash your rom I think the BR7 iteration, when he way trying to upgrade from royal ginger.
As I said that's the rom I have on there now, and so my brain brain froze a little while reading that.
Any people upgrading from Royal Ginger to this? Hey bootloop guy - did you ever get past your problem? (I think the responses to your post were to wipe again, reflash, etc etc, but I think you said you did that)
Thanks

He likely had an older version of clockwordmod (someone else had similar trouble on another ics/jb rom) so just make sure you update it if you haven't in a while. I'd also suggest using 4ext if you're not using it already as people on cwm seem to be having trouble using it with the OTA Updater. Also, it allows you to wipe everything you need to flash a rom with just one option.
I'm on royal ginger 1.6 from way last year, and am ready to flash your aospx mr1.
I have ROM manager 5.0.2.1 and with that I flashed CWM Recovery (it downloaded it over data network nice and fast), just 2 days ago, so it must be the latest.
So you're saying that 4ext may be less prone to error... If I go with that, where does that leave ROM Manager, it stays installed- there's no reason to uninstall it? And the CWM recovery? Does 4ext flash its recovery right over my existing CWM recovery?

You can still use ROM Manager with 4ext. Yes, just flash it right over.
