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)

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...

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.

Hello all.
I have tried to load two custom roms that are on eb13 with ext4. I had some small hurdles which I found answers to...but had the same net result on both.
The las5t one I tried was the frozen rom.
When it is complete all seems fine and it boots to the os. When. I hit settings or applications, it starts this strange vibration pattern and then reboots without displaying the selected menu.
If this was posted.. I did not find it. Any guidence would be appreicated and sorry for any bother. My goal is to research and go at it again next week.
I did follow the whiping instructions and in both cases I went to stock 2.1 then used odin to go to eb13. Base eb13 seems stable. In eb13 I convert to ext4 using cwm3.
From trial, I then flashed acs frozen(wipex3 and so on). On reboot the issue occurs. I did not install any apps or data which was backed up.

This is a know issue on both of these ROMs. You simply have to reflash the ROM when this occurs. It only seems to happen on a fresh ext4 conversion.
Thanks for the prompt reply. I may give it a try when I don't need the precious battery life.
Thanks again.

I had problems too from fresh eb13>cwm3>wipe 3x>flash frozenRom. At that point I was stuck in boot with bootscreens fighting eachother. So I wiped 3x again flashed frozen again now its all good.
So try wipe 3x and flash again see if that fixes you too.

nope, count me in. new math maybe? lol
Sorry for the confusion. I chewed 10% in reapplying the rom and such of my battery....leaving me with63% bat life left.
I should also note that after applying the rom it hugh at (the equiv of) the galaxy s screen for so long. After about 5 min I force rebooted and it came back fine.
Not to cross topics.... after flashing frozen (killer rom btw) I can't find my google searchbar widget to re-enable. I didn't think this would be part of the purged bloatware.
Any ideas how this happened and how I can gvet it back? Restore of app widgets via titanium didn't do it. Tried searching but haven't mastered the art in the xda app. Results include the hone book. I am on the road....so I can't hit a puter
*** edit ****
Never mind. Appears to be a known issue related to the search buttoon not working . Thanks

For those of you who are having FC's or reboot problems, I recommend trying this (on all roms):
clear cache / DC 3x
flash the rom form the sd card
immediately flash the rom again
Do all of this without rebooting. What ive noticed a LOT is that I often get curious issues with roms, and then I flash them again and dont get those issues anymore (--or, I get a different set of curious issues). Since i do everything else the same, it seems that it must have been the flash that was problematic. just as we have grown accustomed to wipe data multiple times to ensure a successful clear, we should also become accustomed to flashing (especially for larger files more prone to exhibiting problems) multiple times to ensure a clean and successful write.
I know there was a GB ram leakage problem with EG22/EH06 which was causing reboots, but even with these roms you shouldnt be experiencing FC's right out of the box. A lot of people have claimed to run EH17 without any reboots (or FCs) so you too should be able to experience it. Good luck all.
PS - If you have Journaling OFF, make sure your phone doesn't die due to lack of power! Keep it charged. Four times so far I've been thrown into the chaos of "The application Google services Framework has stopped unexpectedly," due to letting un-journaled phones die. Now, I just keep it on for data safety / integrity.
First. Good tip.
you'll probably get flamed for posting this in development though.

I brought the lighters, let's getm,,,,, oh, well damn, good tip man.
You know I have never had to flash anything twice and things go pretty well with my flashes for the most part but I do one thing that isn't usually mentioned. After I do all the wipes 3x (data cache dalvik) I go into mounts and storage and I format data cache and system. The data and cache obviously have already been formatted but none of the wipes ever touch system. The ROM script must do that I guess, but I figure why not play it safe and personally clean all the file systems... Works for me.

thanx for the tip man.....will try next time I flash a new ROM
this is what i did after seeingit in a post and mines is runnign goood so far ...question how do u know if journaling is on or off
great tip.. im about to try it RIGHT NOW.. I have wiped and reinstalled roms for the past 2 days now.. because I keep getting reboots and force closes.. even before I try to install any new apps.. im now on a rooted stock deodexed EG22.. that I just flashed about 2 hours ago.. I will now try a custom rom and fash twice and see how it works out for me..
This sounded interesting so I broke my vow not to flash gingerbread again until it was released. I decided to do everything differently than I had in all the previous installs and follow the OPs directions. I'm running EC05 rooted with CWM, so I downloaded the stock odex EH17 zip, followed the clearing suggestions in this post, and flashed EH17 in CWM. Flashed it twice as suggested. Flashed SU, and rebooted.
Long story short, after about 90 minutes it rebooted on its own.
Glad I made a nandroid backup before I started this, because I'm back on stock EC05 rooted again.
all gb roms will have fc's; this is just a procedure to make sure that the fc's you Do experience are caused by errors in the rom's programming as opposed to flashing errors =]
i too am on rking's ec05

I can also assure everyone, turning your head to the right, while flashing, improves the data connection speeds with any GB modem.

I had great success with EH17 using the Tegrak config along with the EH17Plus Kernel. Also, I found that the only time I did get a reboot was when I was using the hotspot or wireless tether. But it only happened when the phone got hot and was NOT on the charger. No reboots at all when tethering if I had the phone plugged into the charger, or during any other usage. I recently went back to EC05 to use the SRF1.2 ROM. EH17's modem was a lot faster too, imo. Going back when more ROMs become available.
Also, I tried Hurricane but got fc's. I'll try it again with the doube flash. I liked it otherwise. Now that I think about it, I was flashing modems and started getting fc's on SRF1.2. But none after I flashed it again (double). So this may be the trick if you're having fc's.

A little reading wouldn't have hurt............
Anyways, if you do not modify anything in /system then you should be fine. I wouldn't ever be worried about receiving an ota anyways. Chances are someone will post the full rom here before your phone ever recieves the ota notification.

Thanks for the fast reply, I new I was going to get hit with the not reading part, but rooting was something I thought of on an impulse and I did as much reading as I could before I got into work so I thought I would ask for a quick answer. Now that I have the answer I have a lot more reading to do before I even try to root.
Thank you again for the answer.

You WILL get the OTA update
Guys sorry if this a noob question. But I just recently rooted as well .
I'm running stock rom and francos kernel. Will stock rom and diff kernel mess up if you accept ota?
I'm also looking at trying diff kernels like trinity teuv.
I know I have to wipe cache and dalvik when flashing another kernel however some state to reflash the rom as well. I'm on stock so nothing to really reflash . What steps should I take to make sure kernels don't conflict.

I've had wifi driver issues when flashing kernel outside of rom flash also, sometimes it works fine, other times I get the wifi error. Do not update ota if your using a custom kernel and recovery, you must be 100% stock to do so. There are stock flashable roms however, google peter Alfonso, his stuff is in rom manager as well. Also bugless beast is a stock based rom with many improvements, very stable also. Perhaps check it out.

Always disable wifi before flashing a rom. In fact putting your device into airplane mode is the safest bet.

I'm not saying that's not good advice but I have done both and still had the error, but I'm sure it doesn't hurt.

If you're rooted, most likely you will not get the OTA notification. That's not a big deal. When ICS hits, it's going to hit here just as quick if not quicker. You'll most likely get an error if you try to flash an official OTA on a rooted device, has to be stock.
Btw, Oxygen is my ROM of choice, so I await his ICS 4.0 ROM anyway. Heck with the OTA.

I have no idea why this seems only to be happening to my phone... I get zero 4g despite my phone showing 4g. I have updated profile and prl in tw... I have tried twrp and cwm.

It's been known that aosp in Many cases causes this. My last phone epic 4g touch was the same way. Flash stock rom and data speeds back to normal

From what I understand we can't flash modems yet. Are you on MDL or MDC? I have had issues with the modem on TW after unrooting on MDL, but they were fixed when I reinstalled the update from Sprint.
Not really sure how the radios interact with AOSP, but could have something to do with the differences between the update.
Hi all, couple days before my nexus suddenly have an unstable wifi. It never been this before and it getting worse. Im using the latest purity rom with lean kernel.
I ve tried to factory reset and flash again with the same rom with the same kernel, but it only last for an our than it started unstable again. I reset it my router and my modem but no luck still unstable. But my other phone vs980 work fine.
I have read other topic about this matter and tried to install some of the apps but still does not work.
Is there any rom and kernel that might fix this problem. I am playing online game and it is very annoying to have this problem.
Pleasee help and thanks in advance.

I'll report back if I can find anything out. Or if anyone knows the cause or fix for this, that information would be greatly appreciated.
Just now i ve tried cm11 official and it seem the problem still there so i restore my backup and it work fine i think, but stock rom without any modified kernel is so lagging. So i return to purity rom. At first, wifi has stable connection but after that same problem occure.
Please someone advise me what to do .. please.

I've done a lot of searching and this seems to be a problem that quite a few people seem to be having, but I haven't come across any solutions. There were mentions of using a Wifi fixer app from the play store but that proved ineffective. Any one else running into this problem?
Same problem here.
I ve tried return to stock again with my backup and did not last for long because to laggy and i flash f2fs lego kernel with purity rom. And then the nightmare came back damnnn. Its is bizzare because a month before ot works just fine with the wifi. Probably with the apps or the router is not compatible . And the worst part, that ive got buffering when watching youtube from the first i had this nexus.
I think the best solution is wait for 4.4.3 to release.
