[Q] Custom ROMs Radio not working even after reflashing - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am currently running N4 on AT&T network, but as soon as I install any custom roms radio stops working. Kernels work fine stock and Semaphore. I tried with PA and Purity Roms latest and for both its the same. I tried re flashing bootloader and radios 84, 48, 27, 33Hybrid and 33 but makes no difference nor does the temporary fix suggested by going to *#*#INFO#*#*. It works fine if I restore to stock rom. Please suggest what might be going wrong here.
**Update**
After restore I see in about > baseband is 33. After installing custom rom in fastboot mode I see 33 but once phone is up it comes blank. What should I do to fix it.
Thanks

It is an issue with your current recovery. Some versions of CWM and TWRP cause issues with the radio resulting in an unknown baseband. Which one are you using? From what I know CWM 6.0.3.5 And TWRP 2.5.0.0. should fix your problems.

From what I can recall, that version of CWM is one of the versions that causes radio issues. That recovery is your problem. Downgrade to an earlier version of CWM and your radio should be fixed.

You sir are savior, switched to TWRP, created new recovery put in Pure Speed X and this time it works. Thanks. Someone should let them know version is broken as site still links back to it.

Yes I'm not sure why it hasn't been addressed. Maybe it's not a widespread issue. Anyway, your're welcome and glad I was able to help.

Need help

Trying to install viper rom on my epic and when I'm in clockwork recovery mode it gives me this error:
E:/ Cant open / cache/ recovery/log
What does this mean? What can i do to resolve this. I keep getting errors when I try to install the rom.
I believe you are in the wrong version of clockwork. For the latest viperRom the cwm needs to be Orange 3.0.0.5
Reroot your phone with one click and try again. It appears your phone has lost root. If that doesn't work their are posts in the viper rom thread that describe a process of going back to stock and working your way to viper rom 4.02b. Another alternative is if you haven't flashed viper rom 4.01 first you might try that.

Dont think that is the problem I cant install any ROM s right now including the stock ROM.
Reflash one click root. It will reinstall clockwork for you and that might fix your issue. If not you might have to use odin to go back to stock. The links for this stuff is in the sticky above.

Yeah you need to instal the dk28 modem first. In the epic sticky their is a version of dk28 froyo that you can flash through odin. Try that and then one click root and then instal viper rom.

Returning to KL1 radio

I'm running on cybergr's hybrid v8. I flashed kf1 radio a few roms ago, and now I wanna go back to KL1 radio. I can't seem to find a flashable zip for it. Please someone link me to one or tell me how to get it back.
It does not return after flashing a new rom, even after full wipe.
only in mode ADB o fastboot for flash radio...
Have you checked Peter Alfonso's website / section in ROM manager. I believe that all radios are there in flashable .zip form.

Bootloop on 4.2

I was running cm-10 new 32gb Nexus 7 and decided to update to cm-10.1. It flashed fine but when I reboot it wont boot. If I flash again it boots fine but it doesnt matter how I flash...when I reboot it just goes into a bootloop (google black screen).
Please, any advice?
Sounds like the download is bad. Try downloading again and use adb to put it on the Nexus.

I rooted with the Tool Kit and the version was 4.1.1. After I rooted and unlocked, I flashed cm-10 stable. Used it for a while and everything was fine. Last night I flashed like 4 different ROMs with the same result...bootloop after a reboot. I noticed on the first ROM, when I finished the setup and rebooted. Should I go back to stock but with 4.2 using the Tool Kit and then root again?

Yeah I would see if stock is doing that too. If so it sounds like something wrong with your device not the software.
Sounds like someone didn't do a factory reset between flashes....

I have TWRP and this bootloop only happens on 4.2 ROMs. 4.1.2 runs fine, and I flashed it afterwards to see if it is the tablet. It Reboots fine with 4.1. As far as factory reset...I rather flash clean, so YES I did the full wipe.
Thx for your replys guys. I really appreciate it.

What version of TWRP are you using? You need to be on the latest for 4.2 roms. 2.3.3.0 I think.

I do have 2.3.3.0, but guess what....I found the problem! I was flashing M-kernel because I read that that kernel is great for playing games. Since I have a whole bunch of games, I decided to flash it. All the ROMs I flashed...I flashed with that kernel, and it booted fine. My issue was at reboot. Every time it put me on a bootloop. I just finished flashing grouper-M1 from CM, did my setup and rebooted, and booted fine!
Imma do some more reading to see if I can find a good kernel to run with cm-10.1.
Thank you daviac!!!!!:good:
Edit to the previous post and maybe it will help others:
The problem was not the kernel...IT WAS THE BOOTLOADERS version. I had to upgrade bootloaders. With adb I flashed the image and everything is fine!
Reading is fundamental...and I've learned my lesson!

There is a disclaimer before installing M-Kernel or probably any other kernel, that states that you need to be on the latest bootloader version. But it's ok, its best to learn from mistakes right?

Lol...after flashing I don't know how many ROMs and getting those bootloops...I went back to that thread and that's how I decided to flash the image. And you're right...some people like me just learn the hard way!!! Currently running Dirty AOKP with M-Kernel, and love it.

Ive tried these steps to no luck im using ouhds auto loki recovery
Have you tried manually adding the APN settings after initial install? Only issue you'll have is needing WiFi for gapps setup and sync. Too many potential problems flashing another ROM's libs IMO.

That is the one I downloaded but after the flash and I click on reboot. A message saying that the rom may flash a stock recovery and gives me the option to disable the stock recovery or not. Is this normal... Btw the first time flashing I disabled don't want to click on no just in case of a brick so want to know what's the message is about...
