Anybody else having data issues when it comes to the newer .48 radio with T-Mobile? My data is constantly dropping and I'm in a great coverage area. (Always 3-4 bats with hpsa+) I wasn't having this problem with 4.2.1 roms and the .33 radio. I tried to revert back to using the .33 radio and the .27 radio with my 4.2.2 rom but no luck. I don't hear audio in calls and it seems like .48 will only work. Anybody else in this dilemma and how have you solved it?
To be honest, the data drops don't annoy me as much. It's the reconnecting that bugs me. Some times it takes 1-2 minutes to reconnect.

It's weird. I've heard a few people got it to work with 27 but not others. I'm the unlucky batch that can't get .27 to work.
Simms, you're located in New York right? I wonder if that has to do with anything. I'm from Sf/ bay area.

try redownloading/reflashing it?
Same here.
Constant dropping. And sometimes it will stay in E/G mode and not switch to H even when in a known strong H area.
Losing signal all the time as well.
I can barely make phone calls and when I do, there is static.
Starting to HATE t-mobile....the data speeds are fast, if only you can get a signal.
I've even tried new sim cards, and no change.
Anyone have any other suggestions on Carriers for this phone? plan price is not an issue, I just want quality.
I've noticed similar issues with my TMo sim but not my straight talk at&t one. I just attributed it to bad service or coverage by TMo. If it is a radio issue however, and someone can confirm it, this could be very interesting. Would be willing to downgrade to .27. Tried .33 but noticed little difference except larger battery drain. Glad I'm not only one experiencing this issue as well though.

I tried flashing the 27 radio again. Everything works, except the damn audio while in call. It sucks too because my internet speeds are so much better on .27! I hardly see a loading screen. Haha.
Maybe it's time to go back to 4.2.1 rasbean for good. But that means no more flashing
Edit: I wonder if using a different recovery would effect it. I'm using twrp recovery, but maybe should try it with cwm recovery. Or even fast boot.

I'm curious which ROM or kernel you may be using. I have been thinking of trying this baseband out. Even though I rarely make calls, the times I do I would prefer the audio to work. I'm using Franco kernel r102 and trailblazerz11's CM 10.1.

Installed the 27 radio this a.m. after reading your post and I'm having best results ever with this phone (data) and EVERYRHING works including calls .... AOKP/FRANCO 4.2.2.-- AT&T Anchorage ,AK
THANKS !!
I'm on At&T and all the basebands work fine.. I did try out tmobiles prepaid $30 plan to try and cut costs but my area sucks for t mobile I also could only get .48 to work on T-Mobile with multiple roms otherwise I had no audio in calls.. So sticking with AT&T here

Switched to the. 27 radio and I'm getting data speeds i didn't know i could get in my market. I was getting 5-7 mb down now I'm getting 16-18. In Orlando FL on tmobile. On trailblazer s cm10.1 stock kernel. So far everything seems to be working
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Trying .27 right now on trailblazerz11 and recent Franco milestone with no issues.
Audio in calls is working fine. All other baseband related functions work well. Good signal strength. Think I'll stick with it.

I've read up on this and understand it is supposed to be normal, but man does it make my phone so much worse. Every single time a page loads it has to switch from 3G to H. My reception seems like it sucks so bad because of this. Sometimes it doesn't switch. I get good bars everywhere I go, but it feels like I have terrible reception.
I've never understood radios and such. I'm rooted with the stock rom. Would this be better if I tried cyanogenmod with a different radio? There has to be a fix for this issue.
If you solve this for me, I'll kiss you through the internet.
I don't think kissing anyone over the internet would make them want to help you any more
Its how the phone works, its supposed to switch to 3G to H. H comes on when data is more active.

the bars are for your gsm radio, telephone calls. they dont give you an idea on data speeds. do a speed test to see how good of a data connection you have.

I knew the bars are for phone calls, but I'm in the city of Chicago and have a hard time believing my data is as bad as it seems. I'll have plenty of times where it shows 3G connection and doesn't switch to H, therefore no data comes through. I've had plenty of times where I didn't believe I wasn't getting data, so I reset my phone and sure enough - data!
I do believe something could be wrong with my specific phone. I might need to try a full reset or flash cyanogenmod. I just didn't want to do that. Especially without checking with you genius's beforehand!

The radio is .48.. Baseband is Radio. You can go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2087227 and try out other radio to see if you get better reception.
If you're in a TMO 4G LTE area you can try activating LTE to see if you'd like it any more.

I can do that, but I'll first have to figure out how to do it. For some reason my drivers say they don't work and it won't let me flash clockwork mod. I was going to make another post about it after I figured this out. Do you think radio could be the issue?
Also, I am on Tmobile, but I thought LTE didn't really work since it was ATT band 4 or something and only very specific areas had it?

Well, I just found out my APN was the one used when you are on LTE. I changed it to the non LTE version and will test over the next few days. If that was my problem, I'm going to be upset at the Tmobile lady who put in that info.
Please do let us know if it's any better after using the epc APN.
If you flash to the .33 radio, the LTE will turn on and it's very good at holding a data connection. It's just when it's not available and my phone connects to hspa+. I have similar problems as you. My signal indicator works great and its blue but no internet. I'm wondering if i'll need to keep switching apns. I hope not.

Well, I did my commute this morning and there really was no change. It could be a combination of poor data reception areas and slow switching. I'd like to try to flash a new radio, but I don't know how. I can start a new thread about this, but I'll at least mention my problem here. I installed the Nexus 4 Toolkit and went through all the steps to make sure the drivers were installed correctly and such. I did this a long time ago when I rooted the phone. But something is wrong and it doesn't let me flash clockworkmod. It tells me to go through the steps again, which I have tried.
Is there a way to flash a new radio without clockwordmod?

I've been tempted to try messing with lte on my nex 4 as well...live in chicagoland...just worried about how good the coverage is and how well the phone would perform outside lte coverage since I drive all over the tri state area and need my phone to be stable for work.

Lte is amazing in Chicago but not as strong in Chicagoland. However, hspa+ is garbage in Chicago but better in Chicago land.
As for cwm, I prefer twrp. You can just download goo manager from the app store and it will install twrp for you. As far as I know you need to use a custom Rom that supports the older radios or else your calling might mess up. I use aokp.

Just wanted to let you know... I flashed Cyanogenmod and the 33 radio. Everything is so much better. Connection is quicker when switching, but also the 4G is fast! I should have done this a while ago. Been testing for 2 days. I'm in the city, so not sure about the burbs.

I actually tried that a few weeks ago, before I knew what I was doing. I wasn't able to flash it because I didn't have a custom recovery. I'm glad I went to CyanogenMod though. It seems to be faster and there are little things that make it better than stock.

Yeah CM has a lot of nice additions, Paranoid is pretty slick...been a fan of that one on multiple devices. It's built around swapping ui dpi...so you can set your phone to act like a phablet or tablet per app...ie...make gmail look like it does on your tablet on your phone. Let's you drop out the soft keys and replace them with a pop up slide wheel/etc and has a lot of the AOSP and CM features like the quick notification toggles etc.
My signal is terrible on 4g/3g/1x. My phone went from 4g to 3g to 1x. Then on 1x, it lost the connection and got it again. Even when I have a 3g connection and I try to call someone, it connects and says call lost in 5-10 seconds, or doesn't connect at all. I'm not expert on how cell phone radios work and how signal works, but could someone help me on improving my signal? Do I need to flash a new radio(s) to improve my signal? If so, where would I find it?

Put your phone and your dad's phone in the same spot and check the signals (remember to check dBm and not the signal bars). Also make a call to Sprint like I said. If something is wrong, try switching modems (try out MDL) and then see. If anything else, get a replacement!

Ohhh you neglected you were on an AOSP ROM lol... that's probably the root of your signal problems right there brotha as AOSP ROMs are known to be less stable and have a weaker signal than TW ROMs. But all you gotta do is find the modems thread, download, and flash. I forget if they are flashable zips in recovery, or if they have to be flashed via Odin.
What I recommend is... go outside (NO WiFi!!) and do a speed-test on your current setup. Then flash a TW ROM and go to the same spot and do another speed-test. Also try and doing the same things with different modems as well and see which is the best combo for you!

Hi xda community
I have some strange problems with my Note 3 N9005. I will try to explain it as good as I can...
I was on Omega Rom v19 and 4g and everything was good...
So I wanted to upgrade to the new v20 based on Sammy tw XXUFNF4...
I thought I would like to try the new modem as well, so I flashed stock Sammy rom XXUFNF4 via Odin before I flashed v20 of Omega on top of it.
Flash went well, both of stock Sammy and Omega rom...
But before I used to have 4g coverage in my house, now I have NADA. Well, that's not the problem here...
I have tried flashing other modems and some of them work, but still no 4g coverage in my house. The ones which doens't work gives me "unknown baseband and unknown imei" - I can fix that by flashing a modem which I know works for me.
I have tried many things now and I still get no 4g in my house.
I have wiped and flashed stock Sammy firmwares and even there it gives me the error "unknown imei and unknown baseband"
I am getting frustrated here and I just want to kill my Note 3 with a hammer.
Anyone outthere who can help me? I can write via hangouts and skype if so...
If there's any questions, please let me know...
/CK
Just to check, does 4G work somewhere else? Because I had a similar problem once, and it turned out the tower had suffered a lightning strike...

At least we know the modem does allow 4G. It's not broken
So that leaves either a low voltage to the modem, or a very unlucky timing in regards to the tower. It is possible the lower-frequency band on the 4G transmitter is disabled (and high ones above 1800 can't penetrate indoors) or the transmitter's aim has been repositioned. Or the modem isn't getting enough juice.
Check with your carrier if there's an issue with the tower, or if they did any maintenance on it. (They repositioned the aim for the transmitter here after the lightning strike, and now I can't even get the GSM network in my house. I have to hang out the window to make a call...)
If that's not it, try increasing the voltage to the modem.

I believe Synapse provides an interface for the voltage controls, but I can not guarantee if it's supported. And I can't promise that it's safe, either.
But I do suspect it's a carrier problem. Is the 4G everywhere else as strong as it was before things went haywire? If yes, it's not the voltage. (if it was, the signal would be worse everywhere, and not just in one place. )

If I flash a modem, some works, some dont. The ones which isnt working gives me unknown baseband and unknown imei, but that can be fixed by flashing a working modem.
It's the same when I flash stock firmwares. Some modem works, some dont. Just like above... Make any sense?

Hmmmm, either something goes wrong during the process, or there's an incompatibility somewhere.

Hi xda community
I have some strange problems with my Note 3 N9005. I will try to explain it as good as I can...
I was on Omega Rom v19 and 4g and everything was good...
So I wanted to upgrade to the new v20 based on Sammy tw XXUFNF4...
I thought I would like to try the new modem as well, so I flashed stock Sammy rom XXUFNF4 via Odin before I flashed v20 of Omega on top of it.
Flash went well, both of stock Sammy and Omega rom...
But before I used to have 4g coverage in my house, now I have NADA. Well, that's not the problem here...
I have tried flashing other modems and some of them work, but still no 4g coverage in my house. The ones which doens't work gives me "unknown baseband and unknown imei" - I can fix that by flashing a modem which I know works for me.
I have tried many things now and I still get no 4g in my house.
I have wiped and flashed stock Sammy firmwares and even there it gives me the error "unknown imei and unknown baseband"
I am getting frustrated here and I just want to kill my Note 3 with a hammer.
Anyone outthere who can help me? I can write via hangouts and skype if so...
If there's any questions, please let me know...

As a general model-related piece of information for Note 3 - I believe modems and the bootloader itself can not be (successfully) written from outside "trusted/secure zones" - in other words you need stock recovery at least for that to work. In download mode it should also work but again there are extra security checks there on the signature.
Update:
Talked to the operator today. There were no errors or recent work on their towers near me...

That's what we always say, too, when a customer asks. It's generally a lie. Particularly when the maintenance was supposes to improve things.
Did you install anything in your house that might cause interference? Router, microwave, something that covers the wall closest to the tower, a wallpaper with metallic components? New isolation? Or possibly neighboirs closer to the tower that did? (In my neighbourhood, when my neighbours between me and the tower open their windows, I get 3G. When they close it, nought. Oh the joys of reinforced concrete... )

Is there a specific radio that Verizon users should be using? I'm having issues with both WiFi and 4G. Extremely slow speeds.

These are unified builds so it is unlikely there will be carrier specific radios. Mine is working fine on vzw. What is your baseband?

I'm worried. It randomly stops working no matter if I'm on 4g or wifi
my verizon is working as expected also.
Mines is working fine also on Verizon

Glad I'm not the only one. If it doesn't improve in a week I'll just return it for a new one.

Is you're signal like this on stock. Or only on pure nexus.

I may try stock, but I don't want the phone if it wont let me run my favorte ROMs.
The signal strength is strong, but the up/down is weak.

Maybe try a new sim before ditching the phone. My signal has been amazing on this phone booth with custom and stock.
