This rules out a problem on your phone. Contact the developers of a specific custom rom, they should be the ones to fix this problem. Maybe it's common and unfixable, if every rom has this problem. On my old asus Zenfone, there was no custom rom with radio working, because asus didnt release the source code for it.

See my response to your question on the Evolution X forum. I'm not going to repost because I had attached a file to my response there.

Strange problems after insalling a customer ROM

The last time I've updated my SGS1 to ICS, it started after about 1 to 2 weeks, to slow down and it always ended in a bootloop. It just start to restart more and more often. I tried different ROM's, none worked. I tried to flash a Kernel after it starts to reboot - nope. Then I installed the original Samsung ROM, since it works.
Does anyone have any idea why the original ROM does and the costumer ROM does not?
Root? The kernel? Or maybe a hardware problem?
For about 2 years I use customer ROM's and have not had such problems. And you know, it is kind of hard to get back to GB... really...
Thanks for your ideas!

At a guess this is the datadata problem, usually caused when you have more than approx 150 apps installed, do a search for the various solutions

Stable Baseband Firmware
Have you tried to use Odin to flash it with stable Baseband rom like XXJVS for Gingerbread Rom, after that try to Flash the new ICS ROM like The Nyx Rom, cuz it's stable and I'm using their Rom since they start the Beta.

Now iam on XXDJV1 - it should be the latest version of the original Samsung ROM's. I did flash it with Odin, after that i deletet everything on the phone, flashed a CWM, cleared caches, flash with the zip files (Clean AOKP was the latest).... but do you think it could be different when i start it from the edge? Is there something i can do in a different way?
I really was thinking about Hardware defects, viruses or problems with the root/kernel...

GPS Woes

Having issues with GPS working. IT is not even seeing any sats. I have my old GNEX and that is working great, no issues. I used GPS Status to reset/download the GPS data and no luck. I tried the latest CM build and an old CM build...no luck. I tried a different 4.3.1 ROM all together, no luck. I would try a 4.2.2 but GOO has been down all damn day
Anyway, any one else having issues with GPS? Hope GOO is back up soon because if this is a phone defect, then I need to flash back to stock. Wish I would of tested GPS out of the box, but I didnt even think to do so.
thanks

Happend to me also, some rom u flashed used different gps regions.
EASY SOLUTION: Download android tweaker app from play store and set your country and region with it.

I am on the latest CM nightly build. Cannot go back to stock. All the links do DL stock roms are down because of GOO
THis is what I did to get GPS working....
1) Flashed CleanROM 4.2.2 and established a lock
2) Factory rest in recovery and applied CM 10.2 M1
GPS now works fine. Before I was restoring a CM backup but I had to flash the original CM ROM in order to get GPS working.
I am on stock rom, and have same issue. I began to think that this is a hardware problem. What type your g2? Mine is d802b.
There is another method to download stock rom, have you tried it?

Stock and 4.2.2 ROMS are fine. It is a known issue going from stock to CM. Some G2 phones do have hardware problems tho.

[Q] what should i backup before downgrading from 4.3 ?

i know there are serious problems happening when downgrading from 4.3
it happened to me a week ago on my i9500
i flash MIUI V5 and lost my imei , had to send it to a friend which fixed it in his lab
im not giving up though, i really like and used to MIUI and still want it, the question is how to avoid that from happening again, what did i do wrong ?
and worst case scenario it happens again, what should i backup exactly ?
ive installed andromizer and backed up my EFS , does this backup include both my IMEI and SN ? should i do anything else before trying again ?

I think it's a matter baseband
Stock-based MIUI rom touchwiz 4.2.2
And you are of 4.3,
Already trying to restore a EFS backup?

Baseband=modem?
Anyway i tried flashing miui, couple of versions of it, and ended up with the same results
No outgoing calls when on miui, incoming ok, sms, internet, just no outgoing
Imei and sn are intact, things got back to normal only when i flash stock 4.3 rom
I want miui :-\ what am i doing wrong?
There is no turning back. Install the MI launcher instead or any MIUI theme for launchers.
P.S. I have tried MIUI. Good but not as good as what they say.

edit :

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658809

No, you're not stuck. I've been using MIUI v5 and stock 4.3 back and forth testing which one is better. Personally, i like the interface of MIUI especially the icons BUT there's so much jitter and random reboots every now and then. Wait for the Kitkat release of MIUI.
Why would you change the baseband? o.o

@houstonn was originally developing but stopped in June due to computer failures which is being resolved soon. His last build of 6/29 was on 4.4 sources and required the modem of stock 4.4.
The current builds supplied by @ayysir and now @jakew02 are on 4.2 sources which would require that specific modem.
Which ones exactly not sure as I am not familiar with every carrier version only sprint.

It has been stated in the ROM thread multiple times that you must use a 4.2 STOCK JB MODEM for best compatibility. Any other modems you guys use is solely at YOUR OWN DISCRETION. @MeestaAytch they should know what to use at this point but thanks for clarifying again for those who don't want to search before posting :highfive:
@jakew02 no problem. I know it's tiring repeating the same information but from what I've seen in my time using XDA.... It'll never change.
I'm glad you devs still continue doing what you're doing for us though knowing this nonsense goes on.

A few bugs
Hi,
The thread is too big for me to go thru it post by post so I'll just make a few questions and hopefully I'll get some answers. I flashed this ROM and it was working flawlessly. I only found very few bugs like not being able to set up multiple recurrent alarms because the app would freeze and there was another bug but I can't remember. The problem I find frustrating is with the text messages or SMSs. At first I was not receiving SMSs. Then I was receiving them but I couldn't send any. I returned back to stock VS98024a and I'm still having the same problem but at least I'm getting a pop-up when "General problems: cause code 96". I have googled this several times in several ways and can't seem to find a solution, not even on the Verizon site or help app on the phone. I need help with this please.

Please state exact filename and order of wipe/flash.
Just tried the test build for D802. Booted at LG logo for a while then screen turned black with 2 red lines and one green vertical line. I was so sure I was gonna get the permanent black lines but then again I read that the damaged screens are caused by already faulty hardware under high heat.
Anyways, I panicked and then I restarted the phone by pressing power + down. Then I got the weird boot sequence like everyone above describes and it boots into the OS. Thank God I got no black lines! However it wasn't stable for me as the phone rebooted itself twice within the span of 20 minutes. I'm going back to 13/10 build for now.
Any d802 users flashing latest twitter released rom can you please report here if jdi or lgd and whether or not weird logo appeared?
I'm on jdi and had weird logo appeared after clean flash. I did not let the rom boot and reflashed previous version without further problems
FYI, houston's latest works great so far on the VS980. Clean flash, using RenderKernel R24.
So i have the vs980 and i currently have xdabbebs rom on my phone, but i want to try PA. Can someone explain how to flash a rom over another rom, or is there something else i should do. i tried it once by flashing with twrp and it just hung on the lg sreen. luckily i had a back up

Migrating from one ROM to another is for me like this:
1. Nandroid backup
2. Wipe all except sdcard (yes, wipe system)
3. Flash new ROM
Be sure to always have a Nandroid backup!
And always check what baseband (aka radios or modem) your new ROM is requiring.
-___-
If you are UPDATING your current ROM, I.e. flashing a new build of let's say paranoid android, you can flash the updated file right on top of your old system. That is called DIRTY FLASHING and it's actually risky, so please, always do Nandroid backups!
-____-
Peace
Thank you for the reply. I tried doing it the way you suggested again and i get the same results. I wipe everything that is necessary and when i try to install the zip it immediately says failed

Ok
I would;
Update my custom recovery to the latest
Download recommended baseband, to be on the safe side
Redownload the ROM
Check the md5-checksum
Retry to install it
Flash the recommended baseband, better safe than sorry
Never give up
Peace
Hi guys i just flashed the newest build and out of all the roms i have flashed i have never seen this problem. After i flashed i have no sim service at all. Done a clean install still no good.

Should I install custom rom?

Hi there. I am kinda new on these things.
I am at my home right now. I have the time to backup everything.
I am on stock right now , I have started getting a bit of lags here and there.
Should I root and install a custom rom?
And if yes , what is the best combination of kernel and rom for the best performance and battery.

DO NOT INSTALL CUSTOM ROM, if you have to ask that question.
On a serious note, a factory reset will take care of all lags.Rooting is for those who have a spare phone,want to play around and can afford brick sooner or later. Moto has determined stock to be best for all others.

Acknowledged !! and my apologies.
Rooting and custom roms work well on MotoG+.On some of the latest Oreo roms I was playing around with in the past couple of months,the camera app broke more often than once.If you can live with that in exchange for performance, LineageOS 15 and Pixel Experience roms worked great.
But as with any phone, you have to play around for the best of latest or for stability.
Just my two cents .

What about the battery life?
Can i use greenify etc with these roms?
Thanks for the reply
Install only if a stock firmware higher or equivalent to your current version is available. Else you will not be able to go back to stock. If you attempt to downgrade you will run into problems with bootloaders.

Battery life is pretty good on the custom rom side. All updated ROMs are now Android 8.1 and are 64 bit. I usually get 6-7+ hours screen on time and switch between every rom that's released For battery and customizations I recommend AEX or Validius. Also, you can use greenify on any of the custom ROMs and root with magisk and pass safety net as well. I Also recommend you download from telegram group as those links are updated more often than xda.
Telegram links are:
t.me/g5pluslinks ---> All new ROMs released no chat
t.me/motog5plus ---> Release of new ROMs / kernels but lot of chat too.
t.me/MotoG5PlusStuff ---> Collection of all kinds of camera apps.

Gonna try flashing stock (some 92 version ) which has the Nov patch. Older one failed(downgrade).

I believe that using custom kernel was the fix to that issue, not 100% sure as I never had the issue myself. Also, if you decide to go to a custom rom you won't have that issue (it only affects stock rom). Another option if you want to stick on stock is find the thread on here for TWRP flashable stock ROMs and use latest one for your phone.
I'm not able to select SD card storage in the recovery mode. What's the issue here? How do I fix it?
