Mk9 radio and signal dropals - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Hi there, im looking for help with my S4 with Puré Nexus ROM from Danvdh Last versión. I have been using this ROM from about 2 months and i absolute love it, but my phone signal suddenly dissapears and need to reboot the phone, some times it works, some times need to reboot more times. The signal doesnt come back if you dont reboot the device. My radio is MK9 and my carrier is Movistar Mexico.some people said that if you upgrade the radio your signal drop will end, but anyone knows a good radio for me?
Also if anyone of you are using Twitch, your video starts flickering at some time?
Sorry for posting here, I don't have the enough posts for doing in the developers thread

Better radio version than 1.15?

Hi I am in fringe area reception. Find that this ROM seems to lock its AGC high eg after reasonable signal, then reduced, it seems to sometimes lose signal altogether, needing a reboot. Yesterday even in a strong signal area, and reboot a few times it took 3 reboots until the radio came 'unstuck' and started to receive again.
Question is for WM6, is there a radio rom that is more reliable than this one?
If so, url pse.
Thanks vm.
Alistair.
All U can do is to test also 1.13 version. There is also possibility of faulty GSM module.

I had problems with the radio that were caused by the old battery.
replacing a new battery, fixed many of my BA's strange problems.
If your BA's battery is old, too, then give it a shot by changing it.
True True, i had some weird problems which were solved by purchasing new battery

Can understand that, because the power saving mode would lock down on radio activity, however, the battery in this unit lasts at least 3 days, and the problem occurs regardless of battery level; eg it can be on the charger when it loses signal.
Why I asked is there was a thread a while back on various radio problems and I thought some indicated a different rom was the cure. Unfortunately, could not find the thread or url for the radio roms.
Cheers,
Alistair.
yep, i used to experience faulty battery stuffed up the radio big time.
Dain your battery completely.
I was having the same issues on my BA, so that when i dropped it (5" onto a desk) and cracked the digitizer, i went out and purchased an elfin.
But i couldn't abandon my BA, so i fitted a new digitizer last night, recharged the battery which was completely drained, installed a new rom "Black Diamond Manila2D", then loaded my sim card, i had signal straight away, where i was getting none at all. I would have to drive 5 K's away from where i live to be able to get the phone to "lock on" once it lost signal, so it was a bit of a shock.
Anyway give it a go and see if it works for you.
I usually get "no signal" when I restore "pim.vol" from previous rom, it resolves when I change the above file with original one.
I did try different radio versions with same result.
pls check if this is not your case as well.
I m on fido network in canada, and 1.13 work better according to my exprience.

dropping signal and missed calls

hey guys lately my hd2 has been dropping its signal randomly and when I try to text somebody, im also having the problem of me not receiving phone calls from people but seeing on theirphone that they called me. I asked for help awhile back but no one replied so I figured I try again and maybe this time someone can help me, please this is so annoying!
idk..
idk its weird i'm having the same problem with my phone. earlier this week i can make calls and text just fine with no problems now my phone keeps telling me it lost connection or unable to send text.
It also happens to me once in a while. It'll have full signal bars, but when I go to make the call, it'll update and tell me there's no signal and won't let me call. It even happens if I don't go to make a call. It's really frustrating since it won't get a signal again for a couple of minutes.
I'm glad im not the only one with this problem now only if we can get some help with this issue than this thread wont be a total waste
Well, the only thing I can say, is you guys need to put some info up about your phones, like maybe the Radio version and the ROM version ...
Good things to keep in your sig ..
Might be able to help, but sounds like you guys might just need a radio update ....
Had problems when i first had the phone but with the following i have not had any issues, also running android 2.1 with out any issues as well.
USA TMOBILE HD2
HSPL2, I know HSPL3 is/has been out and is recommended, but is there any advantage in using it, i don't want to change if i don't need to
Radio 2.10.50.26
O.S. 5.2.21908 (21908.5.0.93)
Manila 2.5.20161332.0
Energy.Leo.21908.Sense2.5.Cookie.Jul.16 (absolutely love the energy roms, always updated and he includes the program to back up all settings making the update flashes a pleasant experience)
Me too
I've been having very similar problems. Additionally, my 3G transfer rate seems to cap out at around 2 Mbps, despite living in an area that supposedly has HSPA+ data (Rochester, New York).
I'm using the stock T-Mobile ROM (the updated one), version 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE. ROM date 4/28/10
Radio version is 2.10.50.26.
I've been hesitant to flash an unofficial ROM or a new radio because I don't want to void my warranty before I've ruled out the possibility of a hardware flaw. I initiated a trouble ticket with T-Mobile smartphone support late last week, but haven't heard anything back yet.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if I can provide any more info.
I'd like locations too. I haven't had so much as a hick up on my HD2 in over a month. No dropped calls, no connection issues. Etc.... I'm curious if this is happening in certain locations and may be a tower issue over a phone issue. People usually fail to realize your phone really only represents about 20% of your phone quality. Tower location, landmarks, buldings, rain, humitdity, cement walls, etc... all have effects on your signal. When I had the stock HD2 rom installed I would get calls breaking up in my apt. But I could just open the door and go outside and it cleared right up. Now since running Kumars rom I seem to get great reception anywhere I go. Remember TMO's working on their HDSPDA thingy all over the country. They have taken down our 3G network about 6 times this last week for a couple hours at a time. But now I get way way way more (H)'s then (3G)'s now. ALso what are your data speeds? I get 3MB/0.88MB If your getting way less then that their may be somethign wrong with the network or your settings. I've seen as high as 5.5/1.5 out in LA.
wow as long as am not the only one with the problem. but what mine does is it will show full signal and when am making the call i lose it so i wont b able to call
i'm in new york,n.y and i have the htc 2.13 rom and my radio is 2.10. Today i gave somebody my number and they called me right in front of me so i could store their number,i watched their phone ring and my phone showed full bars and didnt ring once. they had to call me again and then it went through,i'm thinking about upgrading my radio but dont know how to yet and if i need to flash a custom rom in order to do so.
Have u tried looking into ur task manager and viewing which tasks r running (end all tasks)? I was having the same problems and I just could not figure what was going on and I have talked with others and they asked me about consistently ending my tasks as much as possible, which could slow down ur phone. Well, I noticed that everytime I would go and view my task manager that my phone was in active sync (I believe has to do with my email accounts bc they r constantly syncing no matter if I had put to check every 1 hr/2hr/30min so...what I did was disable all of my email accounts and what do u know...my phone hasn't been syncing out of the blue and causing drop calls PERIOD! Now, there is a difference between Active Sync and Windows Sync PC, however, Windows Sync is only when ur USB is plugged into ur PC. Well, I hope this help some...!

I hate to ask, but what have you done to problem solve this yourself? Have you tried to reflash? Did you come from a clean wipe? These would be beneficial to put into your first post because the first thing someone is going to say is....reflash.
I know that you will say that i reflash...but i do it few times,and i go back to CM6.1.1,i do clean instal,i have before offical 2.2.1 update,root it,wipe everyhing,format system,cache,data,everything and always same problems...only that problem with signal,wifi gps and rest things works perfect only that with signal doesnt work so i put tread on forum so maybe someone have same problem and have fixed,if someone have that problem or have solution pls answer

So far the GPS and wifi are solved with 7.0.2
New RC also solved my gps problem
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
Have the same problem, came form US, got sim unlock code from t-mobile, put play sim and everything works well just when I put the phone to the ear it looses the signal, very annoying. What flash did you use?

Help needed identifying a problem with my network

Hello,
Im having a most frustrating problem. Im not sure if its a modem issue or a hardware issue. What I am experiencing is this:
The phone shows no bars, but sees a carrier. This happened after flashing back to a stock GB rom after using a CM9 rom. I can receive texts and calls sometimes, but its not consistant. If it shows no bars I can get a call, if it shows one or two bars i cant, but get the missed call notification. I have done factory resets, cache clears. Its really making my phone unusable. I went back to using my 3 yr old Ericsson till I can get this figured out. Im hoping that someone has some advice for me as Im out of ideas. Ive tried to flash just the modem but no luck. Went from CyanTablet to xxjvt 2.3.5, rooted it so I could get the modded recovery. The pins for the where the sim card make contact are damaged but it has worked for the last 2 months that way. I really love this phone and dont want to replace it yet.

test with a network booster to increase signal strength, free from google but if you bring phone to another location, do you get a better signal? meaning location matters, if you far from your network cell site, its more difficult
Ill try the network booster. All of my old phones pick up 5 bars, I live about 1/4 mile from the cell tower. I have tried another flash with 2.3.3, repartitioned this time. Once its back up and running Ill get back to you. Is there anything else Im missing? Well I think its dead. Ive tried all my coworkers sims in it, nothing came up. It says no service permanently now, guess its a 4" tablet.
Try another radio, i had the same problem wit JW4 radio,flashed JVT and problem solved.
Some radios are better than others in different locations, it also depends on rom used.
I tried a completely new build, flashed a new modem, then flashed xxjvu. Still nothing, going to call Samsung and see if I can get the warranty to fix it. 2.3.6 tho has 364 megs of ram and has almost 200 free, thats cool. zsjw4 has a new look to it.

network problem

Hi guys,
Now my zuk is unable to connect to any mobile network.
The problem isn't new, two days ago that was happened becouse I change the bands from the test mode.
But the strange things is that i solved it restoring the system partition by a nandroid backup, but now the same backup didn't solve the problem.
I'm sure that the problem is about the bands becouse I can see only a operator that use a different band and also from the test mode I can choose some network but not all.
Another strange thing is that the second time the problem occurred after a simple reboot...
Thanks for the help
I have the same problem and there is an older thread covering this where 2 other people also have the issue.
The only fix I found is to power off the phone. When restarting the issue is cleared.
As an aside I notice that to diagnose that the problem has occurred you can try to change the "preferred network type" and see that there is no pause while the phone works to switch from 3G to 4G or whatever. Normally there should be a pause of a few seconds whilst the phone switches over. When trying this and noticing that the phone appears to do nothing at this point (by which I mean there is no pause and nothing much happens) then I know something has fallen over and that I have to power off the phone.
This is obviously a software problem and, like most bits of technology in our lives, you just have to switch the thing off and on again to fix it.
Lets hope the promised upgrade to Marshmallow next month fixes it.
All got that problem on COS 12.1 use custom firmware.

Please do not generalize like all on COS 12.1 have this problem...my phone is complete stock on COS 12.1 and I have NO network problems since day 1 (more than a year my daily driver). I have been travelling the world using my phones dual Sim function to the fullest and never ran into problems. Maybe I have the only good working ZUK1 on the whole planet but then again I don't **** around with the frequency bands nor did I try to unlock and or root my phone...
When you burn your arse you may have to sit on the blisters!

Hey buddy, Could you please lemme know the version of COS 12.1 that you are using.? I am running on the stock version updated to 12.1-YOG4PAS7DF. Being frank, I am not totally satisfied with the network coverage of my phone. My earlier phones used to work flawlessly at my apartment and since I switched to ZUK, I am facing network coverage issues and data connectivity issues with the Same operator. Are you mostly connected to LTE network.?

12.1-YOG4PAS9IG. While home I am on WIFI and while away from home I am on LTE or whatever the reception allows depending upon my location. I do live in a remote part from France so I do face network coverage problems but at the same time it does not surprise me.
It could be well that the ZUK1's reception is less than other models or brands or even other ZUK1's something I have not confirmed. All I can say is that I am happy with the phone performance.
Happened 9 days ago, after a day it resolved itself after restarting (nothing happened by restarting, changing roms, restoring factory backup & so before).
Again happened & didn't resolve for a week+. was going to get a new cell today but last night it resolved itself when I rebooted to recovery to install a rom, but changed my mind for then as I needed flash light, rebooted system & signals were there.
It happens & goes away.
