Please don't even ask for ICS. If there was, you'd already know.

Also, not getting network is an issue with your baseband.
[LG Thrill 4G] dba.rknair@gmail.com:
My baseband version is L6260_modem_SIC_01.1042.00. Can you please advise which Cm mode best suits me?

Thanks in Advance.
[LG Thrill 4G] Evanizer:
My Mobile Network isn't working. I reflashed it and it is still not working. I tried the APN thing, but the apn's won't save. It just redirects me back to the APN menu, which is blank. Anybody know how to fix this problem?
[LG Thrill 4G] JReeher:
What base and are you using ?
[LG Thrill 4G] Evanizer:
Nevermind I figured it out. I flashed the Optimus 3D version of CM7 which uses the gingerbread baseband and it works now. Thank you though.
[LG Thrill 4G] raghulal87:
Does cm work wit 3d??
[LG Thrill 4G] yourguitarist:
Some aspects like taking 3d pictures and videos. You can view 3d videos but other than that, no.
[LG Thrill 4G] Kiltnar:
Are you saying that to use gingerbread base you need to use optimus p920 nightly? How do you flash the baseband? I'm new to cm, but have flashed many roms. Thanks in advance.
[LG Thrill 4G] yourguitarist:
Yes. If you're on a gingerbread baseband, flash a version for the P920 as you would flash any other rom. If you're on a Froyo baseband, use a P925 version. Make sure you back up and do your wipes.
[Desire HD General] CuBz90:
Since flashing Android Revolution yesterday I have been unable to connect to the Internet unless I use wifi.

I have a 3gb data allowance and I'm no where near that limit.

There is no G, 3G, or H symbol, just the signal symbol
[Desire HD General] MiXed92:
Hi,

here some ideas maybe some will help you.

1. Did you check the md5 of the rom?

2. Have you enbled the Mobile data? ;)

3. Did you have set the apn for your provider?

(Menu-Settings-Wireless/Networks-Mobile Data-Accespoints)(Sorry if the names are not 100% right i use German version)

4. Maybe set Network mode on GSM/WCDMA Auto?

5. Maybe some Radio or Kernel Problem?

If nothing helped try posting again in ARHD Thread

Greetings
[Desire HD General] MrLarner:
same problem
[Desire HD General] zelendel:
Are you using the recommended radio?
[Desire HD General] FurryCup:
This is most likely the problem.

"3. Did you have set the apn for your provider?

(Menu-Settings-Wireless/Networks-Mobile Data-Accespoints)"

Mobile data settings are not stored on "sim" like "sms" settings. You need to manual input them each time you flash. You should find these settings on your providers website on the support page. Once you find them copy/paste/save for future reference. It only takes a few seconds to put them back in.

If you use Titanium Backup these settings are saved in system data backup for future restore, but its recommended only to restore apps+data when flashing a new rom to avoid conflicts.
[Desire HD General] mr_makulit:
I agree with FurryCup. APN is responsible for mobile devices to connect to the Internet. To check or set up your APN, you should go to Menu>Settings>Wireless & Networks>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names. You can either add a new APN or edit an existing. Just make sure you have the correct APN settings.
[Desire HD General] Grant Barker:
I agree with FurryCup.

Also for future use, you can use APN Backup & Restore / Android Market to save your original APN to your sd card (as an xml file).

Also keep APN Backup & Restore apk on your sd card. (Source)

Every time you flash a new rom - install APN Backup & Restore (from the apk on the sd card), delete the APNs which came with the new rom, restore the original APN which you saved - from your sd card.

Then choose that APN in the phone settings as FurryCup mentions.

Then you can access the correct network as your carrier provides with your phone and contract.

Note: APN Backup & Restore doesn't work with Ice Cream Sandwich.
[Desire HD General] MrLarner:
not sure if its any help to you, BUT... when i installed the rom (my first ever rom) i couldnt manage to install the radio that i was ment to, and everything works fine.

so not sure if the radio you've installed has anything to do with it.
[Desire HD General] CuBz90:
It was the APN, the ROM had automatically set Virgin APN as default when I'm actually on T-Mobile, so I selected the right one and it was working fine.

My phone usually automatically knows my APN details and sets them as default, but it didn't with ARHD for some reason.

Thanks for the replies
[Desire HD General] zelendel:
When you first flash the rom it asks for the carrier to use. Maybe you hit the wrong option?
[Desire HD General] CuBz90:
No I definitely chose T-Mobile. The APN details for both T-Mobile and Virgin were there, but Virgin was selected as default.
[Desire HD General] arknailed7754:
Tried flashing a different kernel?

Carried in by pigeon escort
[Desire HD General] CuBz90:
I got it working a few days ago, the wrong apn settings were selected.

But thanks anyway :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
I have had my epic for about a month now and I love it but sometimes it will reboot like 5 times a day and sometimes it will not even go back on unless I pull the battery for a couple seconds. It is rooted and I am not going to lie it NEVER did this before I rooted it. I have tried plenty of different roms and after a while they all reboot. Most run fine for the first couple days. I will say that it never reboots when I am using it its funny but it seems to only do it when it is in my pocket. I always know when it rebooted because my headset gives the disconnected beep then I look at my phone and sure enough I see the boot screen. This is becoming very annoying any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AzNJJ:
What rom/kernel/radio are you using?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
I am using the Phantom Hacker blazer rom v 3.4 with the stock rouge el26 kernal. Not sure about the radio because I never touched that. I am also running the venum minimal black theme.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
Its funny because sometimes it will go days and run great then one day boom 5 restarts before the afternoon hits.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bielinsk:
Restore to stock and see if you still have the problem, if you do, take it into sprint.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nick Venture:
My phone hasn't rebooted but I have experienced the sleep of death a couple of times in the past week. I don't understand what's causing it either but meh, it's not been to often.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Are you guys running any of Calks scripts also have you flashed the 3g/4g hotspot hack
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
Im using the hack that was built into the rom and none of calks scripts. I should also note that sometimes whsn it reboots it drains a good 50% of the battery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
Could a bad sd card be causing this? I ask because one time when i went to use my phone the sd card was not detected and i had to reboot to get it back. Thats probably a problem with the phone too.. I love this phone but i am getting real tired of its bull****.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
When I first got the phone I didnt root it for about a week and there wasnt a reboot in sight. As soon as I rooted it, this crap started. Is this just something people with rooted phones need to put up with?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
Well my sd card just failed and upon some research I have learned that a failing sd card can cause the phone to reboot so I am going to run it for a while without it and see if the problem still persists.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bielinsk:
I have been rooted for over a month or so and have not had a single reboot. So no, that is not normal.

I am guessing something is wrong with your root or your rom install.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
I believe it was rebooting because of a bad sd card. I took it out and have not had one reboot since. Also the sd card was messing up all day. I tried to acess it and it says sd card damaged. Do you know if a bad sd card can cause reboots? From my research allot of people say it can.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bielinsk:
Yea, if its giving your errors, and the phone is rebooting, and removing it from the phone corrects the rebooting issue, that seems logical that the SD card was causing the problem.

Reformat the card and see if that resolves the issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
Well I took the sd card out and no reboots in almost 24 hours!! I hope there is nothing wrong with this phone because man do I love it. Just a question though, could the fact that it was rebooting with the card in there be caused by the fact that I took that card out of my old Evo 4g and just put it straight into this phone without formatting it or anything? Or you think it's just a bad card all together?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mephime:
I took my sdcard from my old epic,no reboots, im rooted only, no clockwork yet, I have had the phone about two weeks, I would be very upset if it started rebooting, that's one of the reason I upgrade I was flash happy with my old epic, new rom runs great for a couple days than here comes the problem
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
of course you should put a "clean" sd card in your phone, when you change models...there are all sorts of useless files from your evo on their, and no doubt that would cause weird behavior in your current phone..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
Ya i had that problem with the evo too. All you need to do is clear delvic cache and cache partition and it would run fine again for like 3-4 days then you would need to do it again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
Ya I see what ya mean. I am going to run the phone for a couple days just to make sure it isn't a problem with the phone and if all is good I will format the card and put it back in the phone and see what happens. You all have been very helpful though as always, I appreciate it!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Blitz117:
I wouldn't go that far. I had the same BS when I first rooted. I've been using Strongsteve's blue ROM and haven't experienced ANY problems since ie. Ghost rebooting, Los, nothing. Its made me love the phone again....trust me I was ready to throw the thing in the garbage.

Sent from the blue"Sammy ET"
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
So what are you saying its probably the rom im using?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
Well it is definitely still rebooting even without the card in there but not as much. It went from about 10 times a day to 2. Probably just a bad phone huh?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
I go on the blazer rom forums and no one else is having any problems like this so I am thinking its either a bad phone which if it is I am **** out of luck because I talked to sprint and they dont wanna do a ****ing thing for me!! The only thing else I can think of is maybe I put a kernal or modem or something that is conflicting with something else so I am going to post a screenshot of my about phone page and maybe someone can tell me if I have the wrong version of something installed on there. It would really help me allot because I am getting really tired of this crap!!!!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] andyxover:
Hi, I know many of you have seen the statement ASUS provided on facebook.

But Asus has made another statement and its published over Taiwan's Media conference. A brief summary of the article.

Asus made an announcement during the Taiwan Media conference earlier today, stating that the medal casing of the Transformer prime affects the GPS signal. All popular Tablets sold in the world with metal casing design don't even have GPS built in, but Asus decided to take on the challenge and include the GPS functionality though the result is compromised. The majority of the buyer accept the design and decision. And for the small portion of buyer that requires uncompromised GPS experience, Asus is willing to take the responsibility and allow Users to return the device or extend the warranty for another 6 months. And for those who want to have uncompromised GPS functionality, Asus will be releasing the 3G version of transformer prime, which is not made out of metal casing.

Keep in mind though this is an announcement made in Taiwan, I don't know if it applies to other users in the world as well, I assume that it is.

Acknowledgement: check

compensation: check

Better GPS unit + 3G work in progress: check

I mean sure the announcement were a little late, but I think ASUS did a great job handling this problem.

here's the source link:

tw.stock.yahoo.com/news_content/url/d/a/120106/1/2yh14.html
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jdbaker82:
Where is a link to this source of information? It sounds too good to be true but if it is true this is the best thing they could have done and I am satisfied with this.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
So assuming this applies worldwide, I wonder if we automatically get the extended 6 months warranty or have to somehow apply for it.

From op.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
Central News Agency correspondent Pan Zhiyi Taipei January 6, 2012) Tablet PC for consumers worried about satellite navigation (GPS) function can not play, ASUS (2357), said vice president Lin Zongliang,

all-metal shell of the Tablet PC does not feature a GPS receiver well, returns to consumers interested in receiving returns indefinitely.

Lin Zongliang today Asus press conference pointed out that due to all-metal enclosure tablet affect the antenna's reception, the world's best-selling tablet PCs,

as long as the all-metal shell models simply no GPS functions

, ASUS try to make sure that these models remain the GPS function, the majority of consumer those who have accepted such a design, but there are still many

consumers that must have affected GPS functionality, the ASUS brand and responsible attitude, consumer acceptance of such return, or extend the warranty for six months.

He said that the whole impact of the metal shell of the tablet PC antenna signal, other manufacturers who adopt all-metal design, it completely does not support GPS function, especially in the car using GPS more vulnerable.

The new 3G version of the next non-full-metal tablet, is expected to have a good GPS.

TOP

The only thing different than what we know is that a new 3G version which could easily be equipped with a different back cover will work when its released.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
and extended 6 month warranty for people who don't return it. That is a pretty nice perk.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
Cool.. I plan to print that page and get that "extended" warranty in some sort of printable fashion I can show just in case I ever care to make an issue of the GPS and actually send it back. Here it is in Google translate for English

I planed this whole time to let the more impatient guys willing to send theirs back send theirs back and see what they report for a "fix" upon return.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
SquareTrade is $60 for two years, that "perk" is worth $30.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
I wonder how long they'll extend the return period. It says "indefinitely" in that translated copy, but I kind of doubt it will actually be extended. However, knowing I can return the thing for at least a few months would certainly give me some piece of mind.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
I called them the first week I got mine about the GPS and got an RMA. I never used it, but I wanted a record of my call and complaint topic so there could be more ammo in my claim if I decide in several months to change my mind and send it in.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
But I'm guessing that policy is for the Taiwan selling region, not for Asus Global. You guys should hit the Asus Rep that's joined the forum recently up to get him to clarify their position for the U.S.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
The Lepan TC970 also has an aluminum casing and metal handlebars on the sides and yet it is able to lock on to the gps sats (4/8) in the basement of a two storey building. The Anandtech article mentioned high SNR would could be internally generated by the quad core circuitry. I have not seen any tests conducted on the prime without the casing so I will reserve any conclusion on the root cause of the problem.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] clenz:
So this is kinda "it is what it is" if you don't like it return it.

I guess it rules out any option that they will modify the back plate for us to eventually make it work - oh well. It would be a fair option to offer a new 3G version as a replacement to us early adopters that bought a prime based on this advertised spec when they come out.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
Who would that be? How did I miss this person?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] UmbraeSoulsbane:
I am going to call ASUS and ask how to apply for this (extended warranty), so I will let people know how it goes.

I doubt this would be region based or it would just lead to more bad press and upset customers. Most likely they have not announced it here. That is their home country after all.

Increasing the warranty or processing returns themselves is not that big for them to provide. There may be some adjustment for regions based on local laws, but I think we can all expect to be extended this.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
Agreed..

It is always metal back, metal back, metal back... I have said similar things about the Tegra 3 chip playing a roll, and that just gets swept under the rug and it is always the metal back.

Hell, the Tegra 3 chip could be a huge issue here, or how the GPS software was written to interact with the quad cores, but they are taking the fall versus calling out Nvidia so as to mitigate damage beyond them and any future relationship. Thus, it is 10x easier to just say metal back, metal back and the masses jump on it and repeat it.

BTW, some people need to look into some of the many GPS units out there - watch and bike and handheld - that are even tinyer, more compact, and use aluminum on their bodies and that work just fine.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
It's thicker, has plastic sides, and two plastic edges along the top and bottom of the back. Not quite the same thing.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Houndx:
Which, coincidentally, is enough to buy a rechargable bluetooth gps.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
Samsung products in the UK have a two-year warranty vs. one in the U.S. It's pretty common to have different sales and warranty policies in different regions.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Lock-N-Load:
Thanks.. BTW, I don't rail on you, we just have different opinions on topics and just as you call it as you see it, so do I :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
Definitely a possible source of interference, and considering that gps signal is the weakest of the three (gps/wifi/bt), it wouldn't take much to muddle the receiver's ability to detect and lock. We need more tests, Asus statement and position is mostly CYA imo.

---------- Post added at 09:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:14 AM ----------

Ok, I see what you mean. That plastic strip provides the window for the gsp sensor, which is not present on the prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
There are over 100 pages of discussion on GPS. Read the AnandTech article, it's by far the most thorough examination of the issue. At this point, GPS is practically old news. And Anand is an engineer, not a writer of puff pieces.

---------- Post added at 09:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:17 AM ----------

And also, because it's thicker, it can access the signal through its perimeter if it has to. BTW, that's one ugly tablet. ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
So they offer to refund anyone who isn't satisfied (all they really "need" to do) and also offer a perk worth at least 30 dollars to everyone else and you still want to complain? Its a more than fair and reasonable response to the problem.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] tedr44:
The gps functionality surpasses that of the gorgeous but dysfunctional Prime. :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
1) Asus creates a self-inflicted problem by choosing an entirely metal back cover for the Prime. A design choice shunned by other manufacturers for obvious reasons.

2) In internal testing, they realize it's marginal at best but release the product anyway.

3) People purchase the Prime based on Asus including a GPS sensor in its specs assuming it will perform like any other tablet.

4) People discover it doesn't, report it to the media, and Asus' response is to discretely pull the spec from their website(s)

5) Asus Sweden in an interview disclosed the problem semi-officially.

6) Asus Global acknowledges the problem officially to the U.S. media

7) Asus Taiwan announced their position on dealing with Taiwanese customers.

Does that sound like this was handled well? If this was another manufacturer you guys would be pointing fingers and laughing your asses off. This was not handled well from the moment Asus picked form-over-function. Hopefully, Asus US will offer the same deal to its customers that Asus Taiwan has. Until that's official, as far as the U.S. is concerned, how Asus deals with customers who thought they were getting GPS when they bought the Prime is still an open issue.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] UmbraeSoulsbane:
That's default standard warranty, and yes even in the US and state to state this can vary. But this is a concession to customers over an advertised feature. The conditions and such may vary, but it they say extending the normal warranty or providing refund not sure why that would be restricted.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
Could it have been handled better? Certainly. Their communication over this and the delays to begin with was borderline atrocious. But in what, a bit over 2 weeks since they released the product they have a very reasonable solution (assuming it is for not only taiwan) and you would rather continue to moan about the past problems as opposed to looking at the current solution (which in my opinion is both reasonable, and really didn't take extraordinarily long).

What more would you feel entitled to from asus at this point?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
I'm not the one you need to convince. ;) You guys should all PM Ray and have him give you Asus US's official position.

---------- Post added at 09:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 AM ----------

You seem as if you're speaking for everyone. This isn't about you or me or what we think is fare. If Asus sold 100K Prime's before they pulled the spec and came clean, there's 99,998 people that probably need to have their opinions heard also.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BongoBong:
At what point do I state that what I write is anything but my own opinion? Even if 99,998 people agree with you over me that wont change my view on the matter whatsoever. The solution provided is 100% fair and reasonable and complaints about the past doesn't have much bearing on the solution they are providing now.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] wynand32:
Why does any of this even matter? What are we, college students sitting around discussing a case study for a group project?

Bottom line is: if you don't like the GPS performance of a Prime you've purchased, it sounds like there will be the option to return it. If you choose not to return it, then from that point forward you really have nothing to complain about. (I'm using "you" generally, of course.)

And, I doubt that this will have a significant impact on Prime sales one way or another--after all, the overwhelmingly best-selling tablet has no GPS _at all_, so it's not as if the market-leading use of a tablet is as a navigation device.
