[Q] Android Phone Signal Fluctuates

I'm with T-Mobile and the signal for my hd2 is solid on winmo, but when I boot android my phone signal fluctuates. It goes from 5 bars to 2 bars to none then back to 5 bars again and the cycle continues. I've tried several roms and radio changes as well as android built but that does not seem to fix the problem.
Does anyone know a way to fix this?
As of right now, I'm using Chucky with 2.12 radio and my favorite build Froyostone V2.
Mine does the same with froyostone v2 as well. Im running 2.08.50 radio. Frustrating!

Yep, have the same issue on Bangsters 1.3 build :\
T-Mobile, 2.12.50 radio
same issue with o2 and Radio 2.10 tested with HyperDroid and Bangsters
I'm T-Mobile and my signal is different depending on where I am at! But if I find the sweet spot it stays dead on.

Same issue. with radio ver. 2.12.50.02_2.
Signal seems solid on WinMo but on Android Bangsters 1.3a it jumps sometimes to Edge insted of Hsdpa. it depends on where I am. Conn-type-RMNET - PPP does not work for me.
The bottom line the signal is beter on WinMo. Hope this will be solved on next build.
I concur... I just recently started using Android on my T-Mobile HD2 and can relate that the signal quality as well as data connection is sketchy at best. One second I'll have a full signal and the next I have none. Then once the signal comes back, any and all data services also don't work.
Using Darkstone V2 and Radio 2.12.50.2
Exactly the same for me which is a shame because its the only problem left I'm having. The signal is there and its strong then it disappears and just keeps running that cycle all the time.
O2 stock 172 Rom
Radio 2.12.50.2

Same here
Shubcraft 1.5 radio 2.11. sometimes it shows no signal, how ever i dont know if it is just the software or actually the phone does not have signal.
Same on froyostone + 2.12 radio.
changed to mdeejay Froyo Sense + 2.11 radio
no more "no signal every 2 min, gonna smash my phone on the floor" for me.

Let me test mdeejay's build, let's see if its better.
I have had the same problem, so i downloaded the "mdeejay_froyo_sense_v1.5_NOAXI " build, copied "rootfs.img" to my Andrid folder, restarted, and now it seems to not loose the signal at all. Full / almost full signal all the time.
I also tried to use "zImage" from the mdeejay-build. It also worked, but WiFi would not start at all. Just said "Fail", so i switched back
Not sure if this works for everyone, but it sure is worth a try...

in settings under phone/cell standby what percent do you have without a signal? Mine is usually really high 50-80%. I've been able to pull 32 hrs out of a single charge when its on the lower end.

Whenever you switch your zImage you have to also change your bcm4329 module, if not Wifi will not work.
I think we really need an exploration in radios in general. Pick a random set of builds and everyone switch out radios to see how connection goes. I live in a city that has the HSPA+ from T-Mobile and there are times I can't get voice to work on Miri 6.5/Bangers 1.3/2.12 (the latest) radio.
I am using chuckydriod with radio 2.12 and android build hyperdriod 1.2 using latest michyprima R11 kernal with axi scaling.
I have excellent radio performance in the following modes.
GSM only
Wcdma only
Dual mode rarely switches to GSM even when wcdma is dropping data connections in high GSM signal areas wich is a bug in my opinion.

Pure gold
Downloaded the Desire HD beta2 Android and i use the "rootfs" from that build...
Have not had any "zero-drops" at all, and i have signal in some bad areas where i had nothing before...
facing this problem too
using hyperdroid 1.5 and 2.12.50.02
I upgrade my radio to the newest one 2.14 on meedj's evo sense warm 1.0 thinking that it would help my phone signal, but it didn't help. Then i started messing around with my "network settings" and to my surprised it seemed to help. My cell signal still fluctuate but it never reaches "no bar".
Here's what I did:
Go to seetings, then wireless & network, mobile networks, network operators, then wait until you get 4 or 5 signal bars and click on "select automactically". I don't know what it does but it helps me and I hope it helps you too.
Note: you can also select "search network" and manually add your network in, it doesn't hurt trying. [/COLOR]
Let me know if this works for you.

HD2 Europe mobile reception problems

Hey guys,
i have constant battles with my HD2. I'm running Android not Winmobile but this is a winmobile problem. The mobile reception and logically because of that APN is also not workin properly.
Example: I'm at home and have full mobile-reception and internet is working flawlessly. One second later nothings workin... The reception display shows 4/4 lines and one second later 0/4. But i didn't move.. Same with WLAN and APN..
I tried different Radio Roms and Roms (chucky droid rom, starbase clean rom, etc..)
Same problem here.
Any ideas ?
damn... wanted to post that on HD2 General Forum, not in Android...
Can some admin pls switch this into the right one ?
thx
i actually encountered data drop s over 3g even on winmo, signal drops like yoyo
lately, also while in Android.
using radio 2.15 and vbn rom.

[Q] is radio the problem

hi im using android at moment with radio 2.14.50 and when i at work when signal is low when using phone and surfing the net through 3g the phone gets really hot and freezes did it few times on winmo just woundering is it the radio that could be the problem
Changing the radio ROM could give you better signal. You have to play around with them to see which one works best in your work area.
For the freezing problem, it might be Android ROM related. Does this happen even when you have a good signal and surf the net on the phone?

[Q] Unlocked HD2 Need Rom that connects with AT&T

Hello all I have a PROBLEM!
I have an unlocked HD2 using AT&T, my signal is extremely weak so my thoughts were to add an Android Rom in hopes to increase the signal but I have tried several NAND Roms:
RAFDROID
HYPERDROID CM7
NEXUSHD2 GINGERBREAD
HYPERDROID GBX
ARKAT DOUBLESENSE
REDUX V1.2
I am using the MAGLDR 113, installing using CWM 3.2. I am not sure which radio i have... perhaps that's the problem?
It would recognize the AT&T network and would say registering to AT&T but after 30 seconds or so it would say unable to connect at this time.
PLEASE help I am currently phoneless.
Thanks
PS it doesn't have to be android anything with a signal will work

Try this radio 2.15 its the newest one procedure is the same as installing magldr
1.make sure the phone is off
2 hold the volume button down and turn the phone on
3 connect your phone to your pc thru usb
4 flash the radio from your pc.
hope it helps
in the future post questions in Q and A section or you'll get flamed
Thanks for the link to the radio I appreciate it did not see to help the signal issue. In regards to improper posting that was an oversight on my part is there a way to delete it from here and post in the proper category?
it might just be your location...see if you get better signal elsewhere

Tapatalked u see
rom has nothing to do with the connection you're getting, if you have the latest radio(2.15.50.14) and the proper apn settings for att, then is definitely the service in your area. I have TMO and I get crap signal in my home with any and all roms, but once I'm outside I get good service, plus in data speed you'll only will get Edge/2G speed , but I'm sure you already knew that happens when using a TMO phone in ATT and vice versa .
I'm using my HD2 on AT&T and mine is working great. I'm running Rafdroid Desire HD Froyo. No signal problems at all.

Lets check whether your device is having a loose connection or not first. Put on your wifi, stand some feets away from the router and see if you can connect. If your having weak signal, stand near the router and check. If you still have a weak signal put on your bluetooth and see if you can discover any other bluetooth devices.
If you are having problem with these two connection as well, then my friend its time to open up your device and prepare for surgery.
Else, despite getting full wifi and bluetooth, if you are still having network problems, then place an aluminium foil on the back side of your device in full.
now see if you are having any improvement. These are just preliminary tests to check whether your device needs some serious disassembling.
I'm having the same problem, although I do get connections sometimes but then when i try to send a text or make a call it says network unavailable. I do have gprs data turned off on my phone's account with ATT. I messed with some settings in the phone options after dialing that *# thing and it worked but like i said after one text it just stoppped and when I go into network settings and click att it says registering and then after a few seconds it says unable to connect
After a few more hours of searching I found a way to get a much me stable connection. However, sometimes I lose signal but not like before, when I used to get a warning notification in the taskbar thing. What you have to do is go into the special phone settings by going to the dialer and typing *#*#4636#*#* where it says wcdma preferred you need to change it to GSM only and do a reboot and you should get much better signal.

[Q] Poor Reception - Please help!

Hi guys, I've had an HD2 for a year now and i've been running android roms since the day I bought it. However, i've never gotten good signal with any of them. Many times when I get signal inside of a building, I still can't make/receive calls or texts. Basically, I can only make/receive calls or text when outdoors. I live in Delaware and use the phone on the At&t network (prepaid) with no data connections. I have tried radios 2.15, 2.12, 2.14, 2.10.50.19, 2.10.50.26 all with no improvement. I have also tried the MIUI, DFT 1st NAND Sense rom (Desire build), and Nexus HD2 gingerbread rom with no improvement. All roms were installed on NAND. Please help, this is getting very frustrating and i'm missing many important calls. I use the phone every summer in Antigua(Caribbean) on their GSM network and it works flawlessly. Could it be the sim card giving the problem? Please help.
Thanks in advance!

I've tried Sense 2.0 and the new 3.5. Makes no difference to me.
