i think two solution.
in one hand, maybe you lost yours APN settings. so, you have to look up the company (movistar, personal, at&t, whatever) settings in google.
In the other hand, try to change your modem according to your region. there are a lot of helpful post in this forum where you can learn how to change it.
See you!
Stock kernel
When i installed the stock kernel version of ozcanrom 5.3, I got problems with apps such as swiftkey (keeps on failing to install language pack) and whatsapp (cannot take pictures or view them), so i realised that every app that i installed did not write to the system drive (there were no folders on system drive that showed that these apps were installed) but when i installed the custom kernel, this problem did not exist, so is there anyone who can help?

sorry to ask,
I have D802 16GB coming with stock 4.4.2 D80220d-Eur-XX, b/b M8974A-AAAANAZM-1.0.190084
1. Can I do NOT wipe internal storage and just copy DU firmware and GApps there after factory reset?
2. Do I really need to flash older JB baseband?
3. In a case- Yes, shall I do it after I install DU f/w, before reboot, after? (which custom recovery to use?)
I flashed the latest ROM, flashed LGD802_10B_EUR_RADIO.zip. Rotation Works but can't change the sound volume. Any fix for this?
Btw, also tried LGD802_10A-232_RADIO.zip, still not able to change the Volume. I'm from Portugal, my phone is the D802.
Please help
EDIT : Volume changer just doesn't work with Google Play, Apollo. Works fine with youtube
I'm using the last build, came from Vanir, did a full wipe. I cannot apply any wallpaper to the lock screen, neither from my gallery, nor from the theme manager. It's always a black screen. Any way to fix it?

Download Links
I cant download the d802 version on the site. Keep getting 404. Are the download links down by any chance? No mirrors?
The downloads site has 8.1 listed, is it stable?
I am relatively new to XDA but nonetheless have looked for an answer quite a bit before posting here. The Dirty Unicorns website has an 8.1 build that was released on 10/20/2014, I was wondering if that's a stable version.
EDIT:
The above is still open for an answer nonetheless, I went ahead and installed 8.1 (Clean Flash) it is super stable, no issues, anywhere except two. Before I talk about the issues: I checked nearly every setting changed them but still no crashes, no problems.
The two issues:
1) The battery life has turned into being unbearably bad. When the phone is in sleep, it is great but once I start using at around 50% brightness with normal applications like Dolphin browser, Facebook and all, I can actually see the battery drop every few minutes.
2) The music volume is somehow broken. Anything I play, from the music player, or YouTube, the sound is high for the first few seconds and then becomes extremely low. I tried other music players also but still,no luck. I tried changing every setting related to "Volume" and "Buttons" but no fix at all!
Any suggestions for these two? I tried so many Roms but now nearly all my Android devices use Dirty Unicorns. I just do not want to uninstall this ROM, so please help
Here is what fixed it for me.

I did not flash a new "Radio" or anything, I just clean flashed DU 8.1, then the volume did not work. I went to DSP Manager and enabled the equalizer (acoustic, but I'm sure anything will work) and the volume control started working.

@Kosh_swe, have you found a solution? I also failed to get the Vanir ROM to work and I'd consider the flox CM10.2 ROM. Your post suggest that my radio would be dead in flox, too.

Hey guys,

I didn't test bluetooth hand's free, but it's certainly still broken.

Testing radio issues
Hi to all,
I just tested radio issues on my phone. I was researching, why radio is not working.
Here are results, maybe it will help. Anyway, I have my GT-s7710 for testing and I can do some tests or catch some debug informations if needed.
It seems that problem why radio is not working is located in modem-supervisor process. In original firmware, this process is responsible for uploading firmware into dbx500 platform chip. But in CM, there is no such process.
I am not expert, but it seems to.
I tried to use old modem-supervisor process to make everything working.
Services line from original fw:
Code:
service modem-supervisor /system/bin/modem-supervisor -r -f /dev/dbx500_mloader_fw -i /sys/devices/platform/ab8500-i2c.0/chip_id -c monitor -t 0
but it needs to be changed because /sys/devices/platform/ab8500-i2c.0/chip_id changed to /sys/devices/platform/ab8505-i2c.0/chip_id
Problem is that firmware event for loading firmware is never generated and firmware is not uploaded.
I have some dumps and traces if you need them. Thank you for your work!

Your "tested" devices are just headphones, right?
The Problem is not the hearing part - the microphone signals are blocked...
if you have a real headset - please try with that one again and tell me
an idea
The 7580's phone hardware is almost identical to the 7710. The processor in the 7580-higher heights, but the hardware buttons and then there are all of the functions, but it has the 4.2.2 firmware, which allow moving to the SD card. Somehow it should possess to operate from 7710.

After clean 1st boot after the installation the buttons are working perfectly, but after reboot (2nd boot) they are not working properly. Only long presses are working (google search by long press of menu button, kill aplication by long press of back button, last apps by long press of home button).
So? There is no such responde on how to fix that..!

XCover 2: BT hands free - Problem fixed yet?
Hey developers,
I was wandering if the BT problem has been fixed for Cyanogenmod Version 10.2 for XCover 2.
BT hands free. Connection/pairing works, but the audio path is broken.
Thanks a lot!
baseband wipe
I can't get Cyanogenmod 10.2 working. Everytime installation wipes my baseband.
When I install the Stock ROM SIM works again - but after flashing CM again also wipes baseband again.
My Installation-Tools:
Odin v3.07
CMW: 20140112_cwm-6.0.4.6_skomer_fixed.tar.md5
CM: 20140204_cm_10.2_skomer-ota-eng.flx.zip
Is there any chance to install the baseband (I think it's inside the modem.bin)?
No network available in Polish Play
I'm installing CM for my father in law on Samsung X Cover 2 and I'm facing problem with no available network.
I've tried CM 11 and CM 10.2 - both are running fast but both doesn't recognize any network operator.
CM11 has additional problem with hanging during shutdown.
I've found that Polish network Play has common problems with radio: like here
https://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod4milestone/issues/detail?id=510.
But even I'm putting T-Mobile sim card then still phone doesn't recognize (phone is coming from Play but it is unlocked).
When I restored Play stock ROM then it works.
Could anybody help in this?

Forget CM en try Vanir or MIUI these are more up2date. Also CM11 is alpa with camera bug:
First look at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/t/xcover-2
Vanir
Second, I use Vanir 4.4.4 daily. It has some bugs, but not some bugs that makes it unstable. Known issues:
Start/Stop navbar after every restart
Use this solution to fix connection errors after a fresh Flash: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60411469&postcount=612
Other small bugs:
2G/3G quick setting and normal settings dont work properly because of absence of LTE
Navigation Ring and immersive mode causes dead touch screen space
DSP manager doesn't work
After using Vanir 4.4.4 I never want to go back! It's that much faster, more free RAM en better battery performance. Because of the better RAM performance, you must kill apps more often else it will drain the battery quicker :silly:.
Best way to Flash with 4.4.4 is to first flash Clockworkmod through ODIN, then do the usual Full Wipe --> Wipe Cache --> Flash Rom --> Flash GAPPS. Here is a video of someone doing these things. P.S. in this video the process is speeded up also reboot can freeze the system (just remove battery after a couple of minutes)
Files
Vanir: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7agwkTbiz0pNHZMQlpudkR4NUU/view
GAPPS: https://mega.co.nz/#!kokjzJwT!eqmMam5r5N2kWvtmSMy4QnaHnxvoqhDtr_joSDU5anI
MIUI
Another option is MIUI (used on the the popular Chinese Xiaomo phones). Instead of the Vanir build, this build is still being maintained. But because it's based on Vanir it has most likely has the same bugs. Never tried it because I prefer stock Android.
2nd, the connection error fix for vanir could also work for CM (vanir uses stuff from CM).

Android 4.4.4 on Acer A500 Working Partially
I was running ICS 4.03 and installed the 4.4.4 from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2705989
Using Skrilax V9 bootloader and CWM 6.0.4.5.
Omnirom Kitkat loads up fine but cannot restore apps through Titanium Backup and as it reports no Root access.
Also Google Play cannot locate this device but I can log in and see my apps using the stock Browser that was installed.
Made several attempts with Google Android Manager to no avail.
I assume this custom ROM has root access correct? If true, don't understand why Titanium Backup is complaining.
Location is set for Wi-Fi and mobile network to determine location.
So for now cannot restore my apps locally via Titanium Backup until I get to the bottom of the issue.
Your guidance appreciated as well as the work to make this ROM available to such a broad audience.
DISREGARD, I am getting everything working in the light version.
Rom for Acer A500
Hello I am new to the forum and also the modding and not perlo language very well.
I tried to flash the recovery "update-recovery-thor2002ro-rev1.7.3" the "OmniROM-4.4.4-Tegraowners ROM v21" the work went well but sometimes I crash.
Can you tell me what is currently the OmniROM 4.4.4 better and more stable than those in the first page, and if I can flash with the current recovery, (update-recovery-thor2002ro-rev1.7.3), pointing to the steps to do because I lost in the discussion not knowing the language in fact I am using the translator.

Lockups
yeah i have been having a few issues along the same lines, i think its more to do with disk 'bandwidth' usage than the cpu. With low data throughput apps running it will run for days without issue, start downloading at 500kB/s (or sometimes as little as 370kB/s) and do some other disk intensive task and pop its gone! this could be biased a bit by my experience of it as i quite often use the A500 to dl things or load it up with stuff before a journey etc.. have also had it get stuck in deep sleep modes but think thats the disk issue as well...
Could it be overfilling it disk buffers or something? not much experience with android hardware but this tablets a bit old now and new roms may be expecting the inbuilt storage to be performing a little faster than the a500's can deal with
Also have tried all the available i/o schedulers and none seem to have and noticeable difference in time between hangs, although without bothering to setup proper test conditions i cant really say much really

Using TWRP-2.6.3.0 to install Omni 4.4.4
Hi all,
Just want to know if it does matter to use TWRP-2.6.3.0 (instead of 2.6.3.1) to install Omni 4.4.4...???
Anyway, the installation went through w/out any issue. I'm using my revived Acer-A500 (was bricked for almost 2 yrs).
W/out this XDA-Dev's great resource, I would not be able to revive my bricked Acer-A500 & running Omni 4.4.4 (CM-11) now.
Many thanks to everyone on the board, especially, Skrilax, blackthund3r, civato & all the great XDA-Dev team...!!!

Hello everyone,
I have my redmi note 7 with which I've kept using MIUI since I bought it. But now the android system weights for 9 go. I think it is insane for a phone, correct me if I'm wrong.
The phone is slow and when I try to erase everything et reinstall it. The system is faster but the system is still heavy.
Do you think rooting it can help solve the issue ? Or may those 9 go of system be caused by some viruses ?
Thanksnin advance,

I have my redmi note 7 with which I've kept using MIUI since I bought it. But now the android system weights for 9 go. I think it is insane for a phone, correct me if I'm wrong.
The phone is slow and when I try to erase everything et reinstall it. The system is faster but the system is still heavy.
Do you think rooting it can help solve the issue ? Or may those 9 go of system be caused by some viruses ?
Thanksnin advance,

Unlock the bootloader and flash a customer without root. You have a big choice, the most one are very fast and stable
Thank you for your answer.
0) what is the weight of a normal custom system once installed ?
1) Do you mean to flash a rom and still using the original kernel ?
The last time I flashed a system, it was on a Galaxy S2.... Did the things changed ? At that time we had an important risk to brick the phone under gingerbread version of Android (that version had some kind of bug) .
2) Are the risks still high today ?
I looked a bit through the list or roms on xda and the lineageOS seems to come out as the lightest rom.
3) Is there a room that is more stable than the others ?
4) Is there a rom that is kept updated more than the others ?
5) What about the android security updates once a custom rom is installed ?
Sorry that is a lot of questions but I need an update since my galaxy S2
Thanks in advance,

First, when you unlock your bootloader your phone make a factory reset. Then you have the choice which ROM. lingeos, havoc, pixel os are stable and have the last security patch. Then you have the choice with or without gapps (Google apps). In every thread is a how to and the recommend gapps. Orange fox is a very good recovery. And brick risk is small. Sometimes I had a softbrick with testing around kernel and modules, but it easy to fix. Make a backup with the customer recovery before. The weight I don't know in the moment. My daughter change the pattern . In the forum is a old how to unlock and under development is the recovery. You will find it. Have fun

Thank you very much for your answer.
I'll post the comparison of the weight of the system once I'll have installed it.
