Mobile Data Issue with Custom roms - Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers

Greetings to anyone who reads this.
I'm from India and I've been using Jio network for a while without any data service problems. But due to weak signal in my area I switched to Vodafone network (4G) and now my mobile data speed is very low ( it won't exceed 20 kBps even when I get a strong signal ) and this happens only on Custom ROMs. I'm getting good speed in stock rom but after I flash any custom ROM my mobile data almost stops working.
So for now I've got no other way than to stick with the stock ROM which is really annoying...
Any help would be really appreciated!

First use the stock rom with june security patch on the moto g4 xda thread. On that post many commands are given to flash stock rom but use only the flash modem commands to flash modem firmware. Then without doing a wipe flash custom rom and applicable gapps. It would then work. I had the same problem as you are having. I got it solved by the above method.

Thanks for your reply.
But the above method doesn't seem to work for me. Here is what I did,
1. Flash the modem ( NON-HLOS.bin ) from the stock ROM ( build no: NPJ25.93-14 )
2. Flash latest rr build and gapps via twrp
3. Turned on the phone but still I had the same issue
4. Re-flash modem (NON-HLOS.bin)
Still I'm facing the same data issue.

If this is the case try engineering mode on your moto g4 plus by dialing *#*#2486#*#* and then changing the radio power of your device. Try other relevant settings too. Maybe it works. And if it doesn't work still then contact jleeblanch on rr official thread. He may have a solution.

U need to fully flash stock, run stock to make sure GPS, WiFi, 4g data works--only then do u wipe /system, /data, /cache and then flash custom ROM. This is because flashing custom ROMs only overwrite /system, /data, and the original stock rom fastboot flashing overwrite much more partitions including modem and its config files. Thus, custom ROMs can then use these files to make sure 2g, 3g, 4g, WiFi, voice, data, SMS, MMS, GPS all work correctly.

[Q] Wifi not working after different ROM flashing

Wifi not working after I flash my I9505 with ROM I9505XXUGNE5_I9505OJVFNE1_KSA

have you updated the baseband?
maybe need to flash NON-HLOS (Wifi Fix). This is the LTE modem and should match the installed baseband otherwise wifi and sound problems may occur.

I just had the same problem as you. After a lot of reading, this is how I solved it:
1) Wipe data/cache and re-flash the original stock rom (everything back to day 1 from new)
2) Donwload and flash the modem for the new ROM you want in the phone slot
3) Flash the same new modem again, but uncheck "auto reboot". Once done, manually turn off the phone
4) Flash the new modem a 3rd time with "auto reboot" checked again. In settings > about device, the boot loader should now be updated.
5) Flash the CWD recovery (or custom recovery of choice)
6) Flash the new ROM
DONE
I have flashed the modem successfully, now the baseband has been updated. Then I reflashed the new ROM using ODIN. But still the wifi doesn't work.

[Q] n900 stuck on Samsung logo

Hi guys I've been facing this problem for a few months now. Hope someone can help. I am on vn rom v14. While on this rom I had flashed the clear warranty zip to reset my knox counter to 0. I was curious to see if it would work. Therafter I decided to flash stock firmware. After the flash I was stuck at the boot logo. So then I booted into stock recovery and wiped data factory reset, wipe cache and wiped dalvik cache. The phone then boots up however it doesn't receive any network signal. It can only connect to wifi. Base brand version and imei are also lost. The only solution that I found was to flash the vn rom again and everything is fixed. I seem to be stuck on vn rom as this is the only rom that picks up signal. Tried many other roms and have the same problem. Eventually I have to return to vn rom to use my phone. Can somebody please help me.
After you flash your stock firmware (you lose your imei )
You should install this zip file from twrp or cwm

[Q] About flashing Nexus 4 Modem

Hey guys,
After been searching for info about and not much luck, I still have some questions about flashing modems. I am running CM12.1 nightly from last Saturday and I want to flash the hybrid LTE modem.
1.- Any risks involved I should be aware when flashing modem?
1.- For flashing modems, do I need to wipe cache, system or reinstall the Rom at all (before or afterwards modem installation)?
2.- If I switch to stock modem or install a different one, do I need to do any wiping or reinstall at all?
3.- From the attached image of my phone info, can someone confirm which stock modem I have?
Thanks in advance.
1. Use a flashable zip from here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/general/ref-mako-modem-collection-t2087227. There are also instructions how to do it.
1. Just flash modem, no reinstall or cache wipe necessary.
2. Not in terms of modem
3. See thread link above. Seems to be a modem from Android 4.3

Because he is on CM12.1, I do not think the changes to the build.prop will stick, but the easiest way is to just run the .zip here with the latest hybrid, which is a cross of the .33 LTE modem, and the latest 1.07 5.1.1 modem http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60885004&postcount=1707

Possible modem issue

Hello! Thank you for anyone can assist me.
I have a Moto X Pure Edition XT1575 32gb ordered through Best Buy because I work there.
I have run into an issue after flashing this modem:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63574299&postcount=2
I was on the stock loaded SW, accepted the MM OTA, then unlocked bootloader, flashed recovery, and flashed Slim, and everything was fine.
I now tried the TruPureXMM ROM and flashed the modem that it said I had to. After the boot, it found WiFi, but had no messaging app, so no way to send texts, and would not receive texts when texted.
Since flashing that modem, I have flashed back to stock but can't pickup any WiFi networks.
I have tried restoring my backup as well, no WiFi.
So basically, if I run TruPure, I have WiFi but no text, and if I flash back to stock or my backup, I have text but no WiFi.
I truly believe this is a modem issue, and I need to find the stock modem.
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
You should download .zip file that contains all stock files, unzip it, and find "NON-HLOS.bin", thats modem file that you need.
Now boot into fastboot mode (power+volume down), and from PC use "fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin"
Restart device, you should be okey now.
If you are looking for 5.1.1 modem, than you can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/development/pure-firmware-tuff-wip-t3224833 under 5.1.1 - firmware!
For 6.0 I cant find right firmware file, but you can use http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...rom-stock-rooted-debloated-x1575-6-0-t3262242 this thread.
Also you always can go to stock by first thread, and later install MM OTA.
What about messaging app, I suppose, you can download it from playstore - Google messanger, it should work.

I have flashed the above mentioned ROM and everything is fixed! Thanks for the link buddy. I figured mix matching modems would be a no-no, just couldn't find a modem only thread. I will wait for M Kernel source to be released to run AOSP ROMs, until then, this is fine.
Thanks again buddy!

Hello!
First off, thanks for the previous help, it worked!
Now I have a different issue. I can run the ROM you posted earlier and have BT, but when I flash AICP, I have no blueooth.
I think I need to download the stock M ROM, extract the bluetooth and fastboot it.
Correct?
Thanks!

Can I flash another firmware?

Hello!
Long story short, I bought a dual SIM Edge+ (G9287) but found out I can't use my second SIM in it.
I tried flashing Audax ROM which doesn't have support for my model and it worked just fine, but couldn't detect my SIM card (even though I'm only using one).
So my question is, can I use SM-G9287C firmware on my G9287 and then flash some ROM? Will it work or will it brick my phone?

Just curious, when you couldn't use your second sim, were you on stock firmware? If yes, did you enable the 2nd SIM in settings? Setting->SIM Card Manager -> 2nd SIM and turn it on with the toggle.
My phone is G9287C which is a dual sim as well, there's a workaroud to make the dual sim work on CRISSCROSS ROM, though I'm not sure if the same goes for other ROMs. However if the 2nd SIM doesn't work with stock firmware, I believe it wouldn't work other ROMs too.
Naw I couldn't use the second SIM because it's from my work phone, I work for the government and they got retarded protection so I couldn't set up my email and few other things and they also forbid removing SIM cards from their phones. So I had to accept not using the second SIM card.
But when I flashed Audax then I was not using stock firmware, although I was using older G9287 firmware (J7, since it was apparently the only way to be able to successfully flash custom recovery as my old K5 would just re-flash stock recovery after every restart). Still, it would not recognize my home SIM regardless if it was in slot 1 or 2.

Not sure if it works, but worth trying:
1. Get these 3 files from your stock firmware under folder /system/lib64/
i. libril.so
ii. libsec-ril.so
iii. libsec-ril-dsds.so
then copy to the same folder and overwrite the files after you flashed the custom ROM. Make sure those 3 files are in -rw-r--r-- format. Wait 20 seconds see if the signal icon appears on the status bar.
2. If signal icon does not appear, flash other kernels like arter97 or anything.
3. You might need to flash the radio/baseband "modem.bin" from your stock firmware.

Thanks for trying to help, but I was looking for an answer if the phone will work normally with a firmware from one of the single SIM models
If it works, then I can just flash it and then use pretty much any Edge+ ROM without having to edit much.

Ah, my apologies for not reading your question properly. Just for your reference tho, I have only tried Crisscross and Kos ROM and both didn't detect my SIM card. I believe the same goes for all other ROM since they only support single SIM variants, reason being the baseband and RIL are different from ours.
Ahh so I guess not even flashing firmware from a single SIM model would work :/
Last time I'm buying dual SIM anything.

I have also SM-G9287C (dual sim) and I am interested to flash custom ROMs. So far no custom ROM for my dual sim phone is available so I have to flash single sim custom ROM. My question is, will your method work with every custom single sim ROM?
And how to flash radio/baseband "modem.bin"?

I don't know if it would be able to run every custom rom. But as far as I know, my phone is able to run Crisscross rom 1.8 smoothly (haven't tried the latest one 1.9.1) without any hiccups.
Regarding "modem.bin," get the stock firmware from sammobile G9287CDXU2AOK1 (this is the latest one but any stock rom in tar.md5 format will do). Open the file and extract modem.bin (can be done with 7-zip). The Crisscross rom 1.8 doesn't overwrite the baseband (the latest 1.9.1 might wipe the baseband) so this step is just optional and if anything goes wrong you can do this afterwards. If your current baseband is G9287CDXU2AOK2, you can leave this step.
Remember the step 1 I've mentioned in the post earlier is the most important step of the 3.
p/s: I also did this tweak on my phone and it runs even smoother, http://forum.xda-developers.com/s6-edge-plus/general/root-ram-management-multitasking-fix-t3228917

Fenrir_ac,
I am also on the 9287. I tried installing CrissCross 1.8 and 1.91 and both times they made my baseband version Unknown and it couldn't read my SIM. I installed a clean stock ROM before i installed both 1.8 and 1.91. I then tried installing the modem.bin from a stock ROM using Odin and the CP option and that didnt work either. Can you please put a detailed description on this thread how to get CrissCross working on a 9287. Thanks!

It's worth to note that my phone is g9287c variant, not g9287 without the letter "c" at the end. It is still a dual sim variant, I faced the very same issues before (sim card not detected on both slots), and therefore I'm just assuming the fix that I did on my phone MIGHT work with your phone too. I'm not a developer so I have no idea what risk would involve in doing this. If you still wish to do so please do it at your own risk.
Few Questions:
1. Are you on stock ROM now? What is your current bootloader version?
2. It makes me wonder why your baseband became "unknown". Did you flash "modem and bootloader" file provided on the CRISSCROSS ROM thread? If yes, please DON'T flash it on your next attempt.
3. When you flash Crisscross ROM 1.8, did you dirty flash instead of clean flash?
4. Did you port over the 3 RIL files ( in the /system/lib64 folder that I mentioned in earlier post) from the stock ROM after flashing Crisscross ROM? It's the most important thing to do.
Here's what I did to make CRISSCROSS 1.8 to work on my phone.
1. Get the latest stock ROM and flash it on my phone, extract the modem.bin file just in case.
2. Update the stock ROM (if there's any) with the built-in software update.
3. Backup somewhere these 3 files from /system/lib64 folder (MOST IMPORTANT STEP!)
i. libsec-ril.so
ii. libsec-ril-dsds.so
iii. libril.so
After back up, flash TWRP with ODIN.
4. DIRTY Flash CRISSCROSS ROM 1.8 through TWRP recovery. I did not flash the latest 1.9 since its a requirement to perform a data wipe.
5. I did not flash the "modem and bootloader" provided in the CRISSCROSS thread.
6. Wipe dalvik and cache after flashing CRISSCROSS ROM. Reboot system and wait until the phone is ready to use.
7. Move the 3 backed up files earlier and overwrite it to the same folder (/system/lib64). Make sure the three files are in -rw-r--r-- format. I'm not sure if root is required for this as it involves overwriting system files.
8. Wait 30 seconds until signal indicator magically appears on the status bar (Only one SIM will work at this stage. The provided AUDAX kernel does not support dual SIM).
9. Reboot to recovery and flash the latest arter97 kernel (v11).
10. I did not flash modem.bin through ODIN since I found that the Crisscross Rom flash did not touch my baseband.
11. Reboot system and turn on your second SIM option in Settings>SIM Card Manager.
Hopefully this will work on your phone. As usual, do a nandroid backup before performing this just in case.
1. I am currently on stock ROM, J7. This was the only Firmware that allowed me to root. Bootloader Verison G9287ZHU2AOJ7
2. I did not do that. All I did was install the zip file in recovery. How am i supposed not to install those files.
3. I did a clean flash on both attempts.
4. No I didnt. I need to do that next.
I will attempt this sometime this week and give you feedback. Thanks for the write up. I also have a problem with artex kernal and Audax kernal where it causes major lag issues for my Gear VR so it looks like i have to use a modified stock kernal.

Here's what I did to make CRISSCROSS 1.8 to work on my phone.
1. Get the latest stock ROM and flash it on my phone, extract the modem.bin file just in case.
2. Update the stock ROM (if there's any) with the built-in software update.
3. Backup somewhere these 3 files from /system/lib64 folder (MOST IMPORTANT STEP!)
i. libsec-ril.so
ii. libsec-ril-dsds.so
iii. libril.so
After back up, flash TWRP with ODIN.
4. DIRTY Flash CRISSCROSS ROM 1.8 through TWRP recovery. I did not flash the latest 1.9 since its a requirement to perform a data wipe.
5. I did not flash the "modem and bootloader" provided in the CRISSCROSS thread.
6. Wipe dalvik and cache after flashing CRISSCROSS ROM. Reboot system and wait until the phone is ready to use.
7. Move the 3 backed up files earlier and overwrite it to the same folder (/system/lib64). Make sure the three files are in -rw-r--r-- format. I'm not sure if root is required for this as it involves overwriting system files.
8. Wait 30 seconds until signal indicator magically appears on the status bar (Only one SIM will work at this stage. The provided AUDAX kernel does not support dual SIM).
9. Reboot to recovery and flash the latest arter97 kernel (v11).
10. I did not flash modem.bin through ODIN since I found that the Crisscross Rom flash did not touch my baseband.
11. Reboot system and turn on your second SIM option in Settings>SIM Card Manager.
Hopefully this will work on your phone. As usual, do a nandroid backup before performing this just in case.
