[Need help] VoLTE , Jio, H2OS and the mess!

Hello Guys!
I'm from India and as we were waiting long for VoLTE support, I was one amongst to jump onto H2OS.
Now everyone knows that -
1. On H2oS, there are frequent network drops.
2. On CM14.1 , there are frequent random reboots.
I do know that there are too many threads which state the solutions for above problems but the solutions contradict each other.
1. some say enable only band 3, others say enable band 3,5 and 40.
2. some say install network signal guru on H2os and then flash CM14.1 normally. rest say install the app directly on CM14.1.
I've been trying all solutions for a week now and haven't found any permanent solution.
I would like inputs, especially from people who use 2 sims (1 jio sim). and have flashed H2OS.
Is anyone having a stable phone after flashing H2OS? ; ALSO
Any Idea when updated OOS would come out? (I expect it to be a permanent solution).
PS - For some reason, reverting back to OOS also gives me random reboots and so does CM13.0 do. Please help !

I have Jio in slot 1 and Vodafone in slot 2.
I am on H2OS VoLTE version.
just install network signal guru app.
there in RAT Locking I selected LTE and in BAND Locking I selected band 3,5 and 40.
Also in sim card settings, I have kept 2G/3G/4G(Automatic) as preferred network type.
Also I have disabled "aggressive doze and app hibernation" in battery settings as well.
And in app settings I have disabled app-auto launch prevent option.
In last 4 days I didn't got any network drops.
Also battery life is better than OOS even after disabling aggressive doze option.
On CM14.1, I am getting random reboots even after using network signal guru app. so be on H2OS until Oneplus releases new OOS update. And I feel H2OS is better than CM14.1 because of its camera and battery life.

I try all possible solutions and at last I come on conclusion that everything and all trick is useless till HOS didn't come with either new update or OS adapt HOS modem.
Right now I using RR 7.1.1 latest build with HOS modem with single sim I.e. Jio
VoLTE working perfectly no reboot no signal drop and good battery.
So my suggestion is either use single jio sim or wait for stable build of HOS. Doing tricks and flashing lots of ROM is neither a solution nor give stability.

1. So, on single sim, do i still need to use network signal guru app?
2. In the pic that you uploaded, i see a few network drops. are they major ones?
Network Signal Guru works both on H2OS and CM14.1(RR 7.1) for me...Just lock bands 3 and 5..no random reboots .just a few network drops..these have the frequency of like once in an hour ...and it gone in a minute ...Happy with this...but sure a permanent fix is better..Which will be out before end of 2016...

I am using dual sim and I m sure reboots can be stopped by using Network signal guru on Cm14.1 as well as H2OS (its stabilizes network drops here as there were no reboots on H2 OS in the first place)...Well the source is from Oneplus forums ..Everyone knows that Oneplus said it will give an VoLTE update for OxygenOS for OP2 in this quarter..(ie before end of 2016)..
I am using one Jio sim and one vodafone sim in my oneplus 2 on h2os.i had clean flashed h2os after wiping oxygen 3.1.
i had no reboots and no network drops since 6th december.i had not used and software to achieve this stable situation.
H2os on my oneplus 2 is as similar as open beta 8 naugat on my oneplus 3.

No need of any app or setting. Just one jio sim.
Network drop in image is when I reboot cell. Check carefully its power off status so network drop.
I've had similar problems but I found the solution to be quite easy... though it might now work for everybody. I first did factory reset in TWRP, wiped everything except internal storage. Then I flashed official H2OS version 2.5.1 I believe. Restarted phone (it took like 10 full minutes). Went thru initial setup. Rebooted into TWRP. Factory reset, then wipe everything except internal storage. Clean flashed AICP ROM running android 7.1. Wiped cache. Rebooted. Now my phone works 100% no random reboots and VOLTE works as well.

after hundreds of attempts with all the Custom ROMs including CM14, AICP. Slim, RR I finally am having no problem with Grarak's 1312 build of CM14.1. I selected bands3, 5 & 4o through Network Signal Guru when in H2OS and then Clean flashed this CM 14.1 ROM of Grarak. After a couple of random reboots immediately after installing, the ROM remains steady with no random reboots, full HD capability and no perceptiblesignal drops for the past 19 hours . (touchwood) :fingers-crossed:

I guess this is it...
Just a correction band locking doesn't stick after a reboot..let alone after a clean flash...So Network signal Guru hasn't helped u arrive at this fix...I had read in the changelog of the official CM 14.1 saying some improvement/fix related to Jio network..
So I guess the latest nightly ,ie, 13/12/2016 is the solution for random reboots...Rejoice!...Thanks to @Grarak for ur hardwork...
And it would be kind if anyone who tries this build gives a review about it..
Still no luck

i tried clean flashing cm 14.1 13/12 still trapped with insane random reboots hope someone finds a solution for it can't hold with h2os.
GUYS , I FOUND A SOLUTION! Few hours on RR, no reboots or network drops!
Firstly I flashed latest RR Rom (13th dec). then gapps and OP2 camera.
Secondly I found out that the phone randomly rebooted for me when it switched to Band 40 (I'm in Mumbai, India). Hence I selected band 3 and 5 using network guru app. I never expected the solution to work as it always failed on Cyanogenmod. but it worked on RR . I'm really glad.
PS- I was really pissed before few hours and would love to help anyone who is still in this mess and is having problems regarding RR installation. If u need any help, just put a mail on [email protected] or find me on Facebook @ https://www.facebook.com/tbiwalkar .

Does this solution worked for anybody else.? Please share the experience, weather it worked or failed. I am not doubting tbiwalkar but I had a stable Slim Nougat for a full day and Grarak 1312 build stable for another full day but eventually they both started rebooting randomly with all my old problems came back like a bad coin.

SM-J500H 2015 network(sim card) problem in multiple ROM

Hi, I have SM-J500H 2015 and installed multiple custom roms ex: RR v5, RR v6, BL, Wycked and little more...
But in ALL of them i have an same problem with SIM and Mobile network...
In dynamic period of times mobile network disabled without any notification or any UI changes! mean in the top bar network quality bars not changed but mobile network gone away and i can not call or send sms and also anyone can not call me or send me sms also i can not use Data(internet of mobile network).
My own way to fix it temporarity is toggle airplane mode on and then off....
but problem happen after few minutes later...
Please tell me what is the general problem? Is problem from ROMs or from my phone?
I always install ROMs after full wipe, mean clean install!
I take bug report and logcat report and uploaded:
This isn't a ROM its a question this is the ROMs and kernels section. Completely wrong place to ask a question.
Your answer is in the op of most of them roms aswel. J500h has a lot of problems on a lot of ROMs most of which I think are fixed now. You just need to read the thread and ask your questions there
I don't have any of the problems listed in LineageOS 15.1 20180903 build.

Problem in Pie roms and secure lockscreen

Hello everyone! I've been using AEX 5.7 Oreo rom until now with no problems so far, I consider it the best Oreo for my X720. But recently I decided to test some Pie roms just out of curiosity, to see the development status, and in all of them (AEX 6.2, AICP 14, Lineage 16...) I found a nasty reiterative bug when I activate lockscreen pincode, doesn't matter if fingerprint is also active or not: after several reboots I'm not able to enter the system until I delete "locksettings.db". It seems that my pin code is correctly recognized, but after a black screen I get stuck in lockscreen again and again forever.
I've search the web for a fix and I haven't found any information related, it's so frustrating. Am I the only one in the planet with this problem???
I have same problem with aicp
By the way, I finally managed to solve this anoyance, a wheather widget that I used to use was to blame. There are lots of these available, so I simply got rid of it.
Same here (LineageOs 16, AOSIP Pie)

Nokia X6, now 6.1 plus with SKUID CN, still on 8.1... shall I try Pie?

Hi,
I got a Nokia X6 TA-1099 in September 2018, with Custom Oreo Rom (locked!) and rooted.
I unlocked it, loaded the Global Oreo one for Nokia 6.1 Plus few months ago and prompted to upgrade to Pie 3.45 right after. Once I did it, I noticed screen issues (much large screens, going out of the edges basically). One of the members of this forum told me that this happens when the SKUID is CN instead of WW. I checked and mine was CN. The phone is also recognised as TA-1103 now.
since I need a locked phone for banking, certified etc... I downgraded to Oreo Security Patch August 2018 and locked the phone "forever". I then disabled the automatic updates.
do you know if newer releases of Pie (like V3.54H which I am prompted about) will "fit" my screen properly even though I have SKUID CN? Or shall I just wait for Android Q that perhaps does not have this issue?
I am worried I will need to downgrade and I won't be able to do it anymore.
Thanks!
The SKUID will always trouble you. Because starting with Pie. parts of the OS rely on the SKU to enable/disable certain services. You're better off with either of the two:
1. Be on CN ROM and keep your CN SKUID.
2. Be on WW ROM but change your SKUID to WW.
3. Stay on Oreo (bonus lol)
The broken Status bar will continue to bug you when on Pie with CN SKUID. Also, some system features will remain missing/broken, including double-tap to wake.
Hi
Can I change the SKUID to WW now that I am on Oreo 8.1 August 2018 patch?
I am not finding any info to confirm this, but I appears that Nokia is now allowing unlock.
I would like to:
- change SKUID to WW
- relock
- upgrade to Pie and follow all the future automatic updates
Do you think this is possible?
Thanks for your help as always.
Nokia does not allow unlock. You will need to resort to the paid methods.
Sent from my Nokia 8.1
Please can you send me some links so I can proceed accordingly?

I am on Oreo 8.1 August 2018 patch. I was told unlock the phone is not possible anymore.
However, I just contacted singhnsk privately and Techmesto via email. we'll see what can be done.

Is it possiable that i still need CN SKUID(for my wifi and signal) but with Lineage OS experience?
i really enjoy the Lineage OS or Evolution X or Resurrection-Remix, but i cant find the CN version ROMs like this....

Multiple issues - Advise on clean-slate reset?

Apologies for cryptic title. My Mi A1 has multiple issues and a patchy update history. I don't know how to narrow this down to a single, simple question. Hope someone can help to make sense of this.
History: Bought new with stock Android One, Oreo. Few months later updated to Android One, Pie (official update). This caused big problems with wifi (connections constantly dropped and VERY slow downloads). Thought about reverting to Oreo, but decided to change to Lineage (which at the time was Oreo). So I downgraded from Android One Pie to Lineage 15 (Oreo). Generally worked OK, but with 3 big problems:
1. No sound during phone calls (I can't hear them, they can't hear me). Found a workaround involving editing the build.prop file (sorry, can't post link), but fix is temporary and needs regular re-boots.
2. Fingerprint sensor not working (no options to set fingerprint).
3. Camera app lost functionality related to dual lens.
I subsequently updated from LOS 15 (Oreo) to LOS 16 (Pie). Issues still there.
I wonder if I have some missing/incompatible vendor firmware components, but I don't really understand how this works. If I download and install, say, a LOS rom, does it contain EVERYTHING my phone needs to work, or do I need to already have some proprietary bits somewhere on the phone?
Is my best bet to start afresh (clean slate) and if so what would you recommend? Any help/insight greatly appreciated!
Hey pal, the Android Pie Firmware has some kind of anti-roll back protection, so when you install a non-pie ROM such as LOS 15 using Pie Firmware you'll have that problems like no-fingerprint, no incall audio, etc. If you install an Oreo Firmware with an Oreo ROM, you'll have fingerprint but no IMEI/Signal (and other problems).
You have 2 options:
1) Update your firmware to the latest Pie version and install a ROM like Pixel Experience or HavocOS (both Pie) and you're set, IMEI, Signal, Audio and Fingerprints will be working OK.
2) Install the latest Pie compilation using MiFlash and leave it stock.
Greetings.
Thanks for prompt reply! Can you spell something out for me please?
Regarding 1) I have already updated to LOS 16, which is Pie. Is that what you meant by "update your firmware to the latest pie"? Or do you mean a stock firmware? If the latter, then I could find a MIUI rom (from en.miui.com) but not Android One.
Regarding 2) Again, by "latest Pie compilation" do you mean the stock rom, like the MIUI mentioned above?
Thanks
