[Q] Did I f up after radio update... - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Looking for some advise and guidance.
Flashed ROM Virtuous Fusion MT4G v1.0.2
Everything was working fine. With some of the great responses I've seen from the leaked radio 26.09.04.26, decided to test and take it for a spin.
No problems during the radio update. I'm now struggling to get any sort of data. It shows full bars of 3G and H (H majority of the time). However, just about anything that requires syncing or a data connection is failing.
Rolled back to radio 26.03.02.26 and have the same issue as the .26 radio. Also tried radio 26.08.04.30 with the same results. Tried fixing permission and still nothing. Wondering if I'm missing something or if I'm f-ed?

Have you tried another fresh flash or factory reset? Other than that don't know what else to tell you. I haven't messed with the radio due to reading some have encountered your same issue.

Unable to start Wi-Fi on G1 - Error

This problem has been posted before but I haven't been able to find any solution yet.
I have a UK T-mobile G1.
I started getting the error "Unable to start Wi-Fi", tried updating to JF v1.51 and the latest radio rom installed as well. Don't have any apps as I've tried wiping the handset as well.
Any help would be appreciated
Absolutely sure you have the latest radio? Try wiping and loading a different ROM, as well. If a 2nd ROM still has that issue, it sounds like hardware failure - exchange it.

Radio Fail

I just recently went back to 2.2; using Mammon's build.
As I was laying next to my phone I heard the phone making the radio reset noise.. so I checked it turns I lost connection to the sprint towers, had no data or anything but.. Roaming worked just fine..just couldn't pull any data from sprint.
I updated PRL and Profile with no success in fixing it; and reflashed the dk17 modem to fix the issue.
Was just posting this to see if anyone has had this issue; and the reason it's not in Mammon's ROM post is because I believe this to be the Modem issue Firon ran into previously before the leak's 'lauch'
I have had this issue with ALL froyo roms, even the stock one. I cannot run froyo for this reason. Im not sure what the problem is.

Fix for 3G drops

I started having this same issue after installing incredible 2 v2.01 and trying all radio with that. Then didn't like the Rom because still buggy, so I went with the original unmodified GB leak and my 3g speeds were gone, kept getting 1x, and no more then two bars. So my solution was to download the RUU in the stock Rom thread. I think the software that installs these roms have yet themselves to work correctly. I don't think they properly format/wipe the phone correctly. After the stock install I'm back to normal with nice speeds and four bars.
Stock 7.28 radio as well.
Add: In the case of a radio hboot doesn't seem to be over-writing the old radio correctly, maybe.
Yes flashing the RUU back to the stock ROM fixes the 3G problems but after doing that you can reflash back to another ROM without a problem. I had the same problem too with a custom ROM the first time but after reflashing the RUU I had no more 3G problems with any of the 3 ROM's I have flashed since.
Agreed - as long as you RUU you should be good to go.
Its odd you would have a data issue with that port though. Its still a Verizon based port and in theory you should be able to #228 with no issues.
There have been times I have tried to #228 and it just wouldnt take until later on (few hours) and when my gf came to see me this week (cross-country trip) she couldnt #228 right away either.
I have noticed that since I have updated CWR the actual functions in CWR take longer to process. Dont know why.
Every unit is different and will yield original results. Dont let this sway you away from flashing away.
I wish there was an actual stable custom, would be nice, and great work done, hats off to everyone, I can only imagine how time consuming it is, but I continue to go back to stock. I however will be looking out for the most stable GB with 2.1.

MIUI signal dropping

Hey guys,
before you guys roast me Ive asked the guys on the MIUI forums this question before but have been unable to get a sufficient answer other than "flash the newest radios" which I've done before.
My problem is when I'm at home(and only at home) I get an inconsistent signal. My phone will have an OK signal one moment, and then a minute later have no signal at all. This only happens in the apartment complex which I live in. Everywhere else my phone functions as it did before.
The problem apparently happens when I flash a new version of MIUI outside of my home. It happened this summer and never resolved for months, even after I switched to a sense ROM and flashed new radios. After a while the problem went away by itself and I switched back to MIUI no problems, and have been back on MIUI for a couple of months now.
Last week I flashed a new version of the ROM outside of home again and the signal problems returned. When my signal first went bad I contacted Sprint and they told me of a "single cell outage" however the other people with Sprint phones in my building get service. So I'm inclined to believe I've done something to my phone that causes this signal drop.
Can anyone please help me???
Well you did all the trouble shooting yourself if everything fails the only problem is possible is the phone itself. If you have insurance just take down to Sprint store have them check it out. Also try turning on roaming see if that helps. Best of luck.

Instead of upgrading your radios, have you tried downgrading?
It could be a coincidence that your problems happen when flashing away from home. It could also be that some file is made on first boot of the rom that somehow affects your connectivity. It doesn't seem likely, but I don't really know what else it could be. Try Reflashing the rom over itself without wiping data... of course do this while at home. If you're not wiping system in between flashes then try doing a full wipe - boot, system, data, cache, dalvik, SD-ext, .android_secure - and flashing MIUI while at home. I know that the problem persisted after flashing a Sense rom and updating radios, but it's worth a shot. If that doesn't work, try downgrading your radio and/or PRI/NV.

Thanks for the input guys. I don't have time to do a full wipe right now since I have finals in a few days, but as soon as they are done I'll do a full wipe and maybe convert back to a SENSE rom and update the radios etc. Then I'll flash MIUI again.

You only need a sense rom to update the prl; you can update the radio, PRI, and NV through a flashable zip in recovery.
So I never wiped my phone/updated my PRI etc. but miraculously I have regained signal at home. I received my bill from Sprint and a few hours later I regained service. Cheers to Sprint, the shadiest phone company not named Boost Mobile!

Issues with service on latest radio

So I have flashed multiple roms and I keep getting the same error. I will randomly lose my service after a boot and then a few minutes later the phone will say no sim and reboot itself. This has happened on two different roms (one AOSP based, one CM based.) Both time the roms were clean flashed perfectly. I have been forced to revert back to an earlier radio (from 3.61 to 2.15) just to keep my service. Has anyone else had this issue and is there any fix for it?
when did it start? because we have been on the 3.61 radio for about 2-3 updates already..
(cant remember exact date, would have to check my factory images to determine )

The latest Radio doesn't assure a benefit for everyone, and might not be suitable for your region. In my case it has boosted my reception, but that might not be the case for you. So, just roll back to a previous radio that offers better compatibility.
