You don't need to flash a modem, doing so will give you even more problems than what you have now.
None of the custom roms here in xda including VisionX contains the radio/modem image.
What you need to do is to find out exactly which kernel is 100% compatible with the i337m phone and
flash that one using cwm or twrp recovery. After you do that the wifi should work without issues.
Good luck!

I'm having the same problem and I've tried multiple kernals, and multiple roms. So far there is only one rom that wifi works with and it's a ge rom that I have backed up.

wifi prob
same here i tried alot of them also same results

Wow, I expected this topic to be loaded with people. I did the search on the internet like you guys have and you can fine allot of other people but no one with a fix on the phone. They all keep talking about changing the router settings. We get this phone of ours and it is broke out of the box. novaracer, you said you know of a rom that does not contain this wifi problem? I am referring to the problem that you can connect to your wifi but as you download or search the web the connection disconnects and after a short time it reconnects, and disconnects, and reconnects...
Can you give some more information to the rom you are referring to? or if any other information you might have tracked down since you guys posted.

[ROM] CM11 for Otter

Not my work, but I found this when looking for rastakat for my manta.
http://fitsnugly.euroskank.com/?rom=cm11&device=otter
TWRP WILL NOT WORK, AS IT FAILS WHEN FLASHING KITKAT BASED ROMS. TRY COTR INSTEAD, BUT THAT IS STILL NOT GUARANTEED.
The only recovery that worked on manta was CWM, but that's out for the otter obviously...
I would also assume to use Paranoid Android's odexed Gapps(so ART compiler works, and doesn't FC Gapps all the time)
Gapps: http://www.mediafire.com/folder/gxxxpkbcke4yi/PA_GApps_-_Official_Releases
And finally, CM11 might be pre-rooted, but if it isn't here's SuperSU
http://download.chainfire.eu/351/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip
Can anyone confirm if it works? I haven't had time to flash yet.

Trying now

It won't install with COTR or TWRP. So close ...

Actually, it is saying it is for Blaze devices and not Otter, but it says otter in the build.prop and it looks like a 1st gen to me.

Okay, that's what I feared. Either TWRP or COTR have to be updated before they can flash KitKat ROMS. I am not sure why, but until that happens we can only look on and wait...

Awesome, thanks. Did you mess with the flashing/installer script? Let's try to get this thread moved to the dev section. Someone might be able to figure out the wifi issue and it might be a good base for others who might be working on a KitKat rom.

Yes i removed the blaze references on the updater script. Flashes and boots fine.

Just installed it. Wifi Doesn't work for now and its some graphical glitches but It hasn't been posted yet so its acceptable.

Just downloaded cm11 for otter from loosethisskin on goo.im. Only been playing with it for an hour. Wifi does work but it does have some graphic hiccups. Seems much faster than 4.3

The ROM over at fitsnugly.euroskank. [com] /?rom=cm11&device=otter has been updated to cm-11-20131117.1708-otter and it is very nice. Just make sure to update latest Recovery version or it won't flash.

Was loving the 20131116 build, wifi worked and everything seemed stable enough to run my apps after I got it all setup. Unfortunately, after updating to the 20131117 build, wifi no longer works (dirty flashed for the 1117 update). And reverting back I still have no wifi. The off/on is disabled. Maybe I will try a factory reset and reinstall...
___
Update: I did a Factory Reset and then flashed both versions, still no wifi. It is still disabled/greyed out. After several attempts I realized I wiped everything but system and sd... *sigh*
Wiped system, all is good...

Anyone know how to get those nifty transparent bars with our build?

[NOOB] system update questions.

Thank you in advance!..
So the thing is I rooted and installed a rom I got from xda forum. it was just a detox rom I believe I'm not so sure tho. I was wondering if I updated will it brick or mess up my phone in anyway. If it can mess up my phone could you please link me to a few roms that will work on my phone? something simple and clean looking. the reason I'm asking it cause I'm not really sure how kernel works. can I install any rom with my current kernel?. thank you again!

No you can't take the update!! It will detect the custom files and fail on install! As far as Roms go there's many to choose from and most if not all have screenshots in the op so you can see what your gonna get! My suggestion is try em all but then again I'm a flashaholic!!

so I just did what you told me too. now my phone is on the Samsung s4 keeps restarting. it wont load up. I just tried to open and it said failed.

Tried to open what?? And what did you do? Can you get back to recovery? Did you make a backup?? If you can get to recovery or download mode you should be fine Dont panic!

I made a back up but idk why my backup would not restore. I reloaded all the odin and md5 files and managed to get my phone back to stock. I now rooted and put sacs on it but now idk if it is stuck on the Samsung galaxy s4 screen or it still loading. during the configs of the phone it said 5-10 for first time load. but it has been longer. has anyone had this problem?

Sometimes a battery pull will does the trick for me! I wait 15 min max the do a pull and wait again! If still a no go I restore a back up!! When trying to restore your back up did you do a full wipe before trying to restore?

yep i did wipe before i tried to restore. i also tried to take the battery out and i waited 25mins. and another time waited another 20mins. still a no go. im about to odin it back and re root once i do ill wake a screen shot of my system. and post up. hopefully there is a rom for me out there. lawls.. thanks big neck you are a big help brotha!:good::good::good:

[Q]Droid Razr M, CM11: help configuring PagePlus 3G

Hello all,
I bought a used Droid Razr M on ebay a couple of months ago...(xt907). Then let it sit around for awhile
I recently rooted and unlocked the bootloader, following the recent forum posts for the kitkat update.
Just today I then successfully booted into twrp recovery, and installed CM11. Then booted into CM11 - yeah! This is progress!
I now have the goal of configuring the phone to work with PagePlus (Verizon 3G network).
I have found a good toutorial at howardformums, but the toutorial is for ICS, not for KitKat. My understanding is that the radio files, configuration, etc, is different and won't work with KitKat
I also notice that CM11 has some configuration options for which radio, network, etc, within settings.
I'm trying to figure out the specifics of the following:
1) Do I need to use CDMA workshop with CM11/KitKat to configure any settings?
2) I'm assuming I'll still need a donor phone to spoof this phone as 3G on network?
3) Can I just use OTA with CM11?
4) Are there any toutorials for CM11 with 3G providers? Or any distros pre-configured for this situation?
I've made it pretty far...just looking for a little help to make it to the next step...looking forward to getting this phone activated!
Thanks for any tips!
M

I don't know if this will help or not... I'm sorry I can't offer more then that

One question, if you know: If I installed and configured ICS on my phone, would I then be able to upgrade to kitkat, and maintain the configuration information for my provider? Would KitKat automatically configure this info?

I honestly do not know as I'm a vzw 4g legacy plan (love that unlimited data) I don't really read the threads about gsm and other network carriers...

Well right now you've got 2 options.
1. I just recently found out that it's possible to activate a sim meid# and get calling/sms working through *228 but you need to get the meid from dfs.
This is for calling and text only data will not work other than wifi
http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?p=15221091
2. Downgrade to jb 4.1.2. Fastboot flash the ics radio
And perform the flash as instructed on Howard forums.
http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?p=15126290
Once everything is working on JB 4.1.2 you can flash twrp recovery and run cm11 builds before 7-1 and kitstalk rom is supporting the jb bootloader as well

In short... No when you ota it'll flash/patch the radio and the only one programmable to page plus is the ics one. Thankfully it stayed compatible up to the last jb versions but broke on the kk update

What is the best rom to use for Page Plus/selectel compatibility or should you stick with stock Verizon Jelly-bean?

Any of the jellybean bootloader roms have been working great for me. On the kk bootloader roms you can't use the ics radio so the 1st link is the only option and it won't get you data

Thanks for all the info and help, I may go ahead and try using the suggested roms, links, etc...
*However*
There is a topic over at howard forums discussing the possibility that PagePlus may add Verizon 4g plans very soon...there is no official verificaiton or announcement, but supposedly this could happen as soon as August? I'm tempted to just wait it out another few weeks and see if I could just use a "PagePlus 4g" sim with kitkat....
....otherwise I'll use one of the older builds
Thanks!

I too am interested in that thread but then again most of the kk bootloader builds are more buggy than the jb ones right now. I'm currently running carbon rom from 6-30

So, just to clarify, even though the radio files only work for jb, I could downgrade to jb, configure, and then upgrade to CM11 up to 6-30-14? If so, I found this nightly build I could try the following file: cm-11-20140630-UNOFFICIAL-RAZR-HD_M-KITKAT.zip
(not allowed to post link, but found it posted by 'dhacker'

Edit: misunderstood the question. Yes that nightly is still on the jb bootloader and the m8 snapshot is the latest/last cm11 build to support it.
Also the phone can still be programmed on cm11. The important part is the ics radio and it can be used on the jb bootloader no problem but not on the new kk bootloader

Hmmm...I just tried installing the special jb radio file on two different CM11 versions: one was m8, the other m7, and with both, it failed. I'll try another with an m6 version, but I wonder if that jb radio file (X907_Modem_SM_BP_1139.000.32.12P.xml) will only install with the earlier official verizon jb version (4.1.2)?

I'm running it right now on pac 8-11 and have used it on just about every rom available for the razr m you say it's failing to flash? That's likely a bad download. Can you unzip it?

I can unzip it, and I'm using Xubnuntu as my OS. I tried installing it using TeamWin recovery, and using RSD lite...both failed.
Just tried downloading it again (from link on Page Plus toutorial), and installing again with cm-11-20140720-NIGHTLY-moto_msm8960.zip. It fails in TWRP almost instantly.
Should I be using a different build? Is there another file I should flash first? I flash the cm rom, boot it one time, then try to flash the radio file...am I missing a step?
Thanks for the help...

Download the whole ics fxz and edit out everything in the xml except NON-HLOS.bin and erase modemst1 and modemst2 and flash that via rsd lite. I'm not sure why your previous attempts to flash aren't working but it's not the rom.
Edit: I made this with nobe1976's flashback zip. It'll flash the jb bootloader jb kernel and a jb bootloader compatible twrp recovery and I switched out the jb radio for the ics one

ROM Recommendations

I've been using the Cyanogenmod ROM for a while now, A2016UV1.0.0B20, but I've been noticing a little more instability the longer it's running. Are there any recommendations for what ROMs I should look at, or places where comparisons of the available ROMs are posted? I do need a fairly stable device, and the Play Store doesn't work consistently anymore, even with a few hours of troubleshooting.
If there's already a thread with this kind of information, I'd love to get a link (I didn't spot one as I looked through the recent posts).

I'm using official Resurrection Remix and it is rock solid. Has never crashed on me yet

CandyRom ftw

Rerurrection Remix all the way. I went back to stock after some time though, but simply because stock works kinda more fluidly than custom roms. Also NucleaROM has been praised a lot, never tried it myself though.

Only stock ROMs can use the DAC, is that right? The only stock ROM was Bad Boyz?
Is there a guide for stock ROM with magisk? I just want Viper.

Most developers say that the AKM DAC is always used on all of the ROMs. No one is really sure though.
I think that Magisk 10.2 worked on the stock ROM, but I tried on stock MM a2017G and I couldn't even boot

I'm struggling to find a rom with working 4g... There was a big problem since december that some people from The Netherlands couldn't receive 4g. They fixed it in the last A2017G b04 update, but the modem doesn't work on custom roms.

Hm, I actually hadn't considered going back to stock. The peripheral features that ROMs add aren't typically my focus, as long I have root I can make it do what I want. I'll look into Resurrection though, I've heard good things

IMHO, I think that some phones just aren't worth the trouble of running a custom rom. I believe the Axon 7 is one of them. I've seen a ton of people wanting to go back to stock and have major problems. I have primarily used Nexus devices for the last several years, and they are awesome for running custom roms. The OnePlus is another great phone for tweaking, but to me running Oxygen is like running a custom rom to begin with. I wouldn't feel compelled to run a custom rom on a oneplus device, but it's certainly easy enough to do.
I'm not saying someone shouldn't run custom software on their axon 7, but good luck to you if you do. I'll stick to stock for now and wait until next year when the price will drop on a oneplus 5. See ya!

They do have the DAC working now b19 bootloader magisk unofficial nightly Resurrection Remix Viper 4 arise works with it just fine as well Rock Solid ROM better than stock much better than bad boys. Nuclear kernel is good also. Aicp is supposed to be good also I hear good things about the developer.
Most of the other ROMs right now our unofficial or haven't been developed for a while.

Try flashing LineageOS over stock B04 without the LOS bootstack. It should work.

If you ever want to get to stock, the best way seems to flash the stock recovery through TWRP, reboot to recovery, then flash an official system update ZIP. I killed my device trying to get back to stock using only twrp so be careful xd

Maybe you can flash your ROM then get the B04 modem zip and flash it? I did that with the B04 modem and had a slight increase in cell coverage, so it did work
