Restoring a borked radio

In the rare event that your radio refuses to make a connection, your radio's nv may have stored some bad settings. If restoring the backup of your previous ROM does not restore the radio to working condition, then follow these instructions to get the radio working again. This method is less invasive than running the RUU followed by a factory reset, as it will not overwrite hboot.

Downloads

Stock ROM

recovery_signed.img - MD5: e9334607c52aebe2da20c53c32820391

Instructions

From your preferred recovery, run the factory reset option

Follow the directions in this thread to install the stock ROM

Boot the ROM, then turn off HTC's fast boot: Settings > Power > Fast Boot = Off

Reboot to the bootloader

Flash the stock recovery:

fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Factory reset from the bootloader: BOOTLOADER > FACTORY RESET

Let the phone reset and boot up

Allow network connectivity to be restored (make a test call)

Turn on all GPS location services: Settings > Location > (all three location services) = On

Turn off HTC's fast boot: Settings > Power > Fast Boot = Off

Reboot to the bootloader

Flash your preferred recovery: CWM or TWRP

(If you just want to run this stock ROM, you can stop here)

From your preferred recovery, run the factory reset option

Restore your ROM backup and wipe cache again before rebooting

Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

Great im happy to tell i have run this like for 3 days great battery exelent performance and I'll post over clock for this soon
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] blazingwolf:
With this version I have the following issues:

1. Apps don't have menu buttons. I had to change the recent apps button to open/close menus to get menus working.

I am not S-Off as I couldn't get that to work for me but I have the unlocked bootloader.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
Did you wipe data and cache before installing? These work for me. You may need to backup, then wipe your internal storage to eliminate conflicting application settings.

Also, for root explorer, internal sd is at /storage/sdcard0 and external sd is at /storage/sdcard1
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
just wondering, i used JOSE'S swap mod on sdcard, should i switch back before attepting this rom??
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] blazingwolf:
Yep, sure did.

sdcard should also show sdcard0 when tapped on. It doesn't though it does show the symlink in Root Explorer.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jose51197:
Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

Im using another sdcard mod forma this ROM ill upload tomorrow by no ill just attach the file needed for that

Uploaded to drop box since xda app can't do it

http://db.tt/XPJ59Ux0
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
thanks JOSE
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
Another thing to check is whether you're using the latest recovery version. Changes had to be incorporated when Android 4.2 came out. I have used ClockworkMod 6.0.2.7 for all of my testing, but I assume TWRP 2.3.3.0 should also work (can anyone comment on their experience with TWRP and installing this ROM?).
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
When you wipe /system you wipe out this mod.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jose51197:
Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

I usted twrp no problem
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Linch89:
Twrp no prob in root explorer internal shows as SD card and SD shows as external_sd
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] blazingwolf:
Well, my issue seems to be that my internal sdcard got toasted. Not sure how yet and as of now I have been unable to get it back.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
Perhaps /system didn't get properly wiped and something from your previous ROM is hanging around. I would reboot to CWM recovery, wipe /sdcard and /system (I hope you made a backup of internal sd like instructed), then re-install cm. After installing CM, wipe /data and /cache.

Also, while in CWM recovery, you can check that internal sd is accessible by first mounting /sdcard, then trying to access it through adb:

adb shell
cd /sdcard
ls
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] blazingwolf:
It won't mount. Tried both CWM and TWRP. They both say unable to mount sdcard.

Still working on it.

Hmm. Windows wants to format something.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jose51197:
Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Linch89:
I tired the newest update and GPS didn't work. Full wipe stock ROM flash got a GPS lock like suggested and then full wipe and cm 01/31 flash w/ gapps. Still no GPS. Full wipe stock ROM flash then acquired GPS again. Full wipe and nand restore of my 01/28 backup again no GPS. Kinda lost at what to do at this point :/
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
this is weird, i have no problem with either build with gps, don't know??
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Linch89:
Beats me websites and apps can acres my location like Google on the browser, weather channel etc but navigation can't connect to GPS
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] somerandomname1:
Weird that worked for me. I wiped and flashed stock rom, and when I tried getting GPS it didnt seem to be doing anything. Then I moved towards the window and I got a lock on a bunch of satellites. As soon as I had a lock I booted into recovery and wiped and flashed my backup...gps worked right away after that
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Linch89:
The GPS worked fine on the stock ROM it just didn't carry over I guess. I didn't try a full wipe and 01/31 flash I can try that later. I'll need to back up my internal first
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
here's a curious bug i found, i have es file explorer and a file manager that came with the rom. When i open es explorer it reads my internal card, i tap on ext_sd and i get empty folder. When i open the file manager i get the ext_sd, but can't get to the internal, meh???????
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Pete02:
Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

ES can access both internal and external. It starts off in the sdcard directory but if you back up one to the phones directory you can access both. I just figured that out yesterday myself.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
hmmm, how is that done?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Pete02:
Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

When you start ES it opens in the sdcard directory but if you hit the back button once it should take you to the phone directory. From there you should see both sdcard and external_sd.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] TheGOAT232412:
Huge props for the dev work on this ROM. This is my first experience with CM and so far I am huge fan. I have been up and running for about 12 hours, for some reason my cell strength is very weak. I think I am sitting right about 105-, I saw the post about the radio bork fix but I figured my radio isn't borked because I am getting a connection. Thanks again!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
ext_sd is a relic leftover from stock ROM. I don't think I mapped it as it is in no way standard. The following paths are mapped:

/storage/sdcard0 = internal storage

/sdcard = symlink to internal storage

/storage/sdcard1 = external storage

/external_sd = symlink to external storage

In ES File Explorer: Settings > Root Settings > Up to Root = enabled

In Trebuchet File Manager: Settings > General settings > Acess mode > Root Access mode
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
When you have GPS running on stock ROM, also use GPS Test to clear and update AGPS. See if that makes any difference.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
Sorry, only standard CyanogenMod packages will be included in my releases. You're welcome to create flashable updates and start your own thread though.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
This remains unresolved. I can only sporadically get the phone number, min, and prl to be recognized. It does not affect service though.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
I've added WiFi tethering to the known issues list. USB tethering does work.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] somerandomname1:
No problem man, after I realized it's just an apk install, I'll just leave it in my dropbox and install after every build update. If anyone wants it, it's posted somewhere in this thread!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
I have added the low signal strength (in WiFi and mobile network) to the known issues as it has been reported a couple times previously.

I'm talking of open garden and other root requiring apps like it. I'm not taking of vzw tethering.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
Thanks for the correction, I just tested and WiFi tether does work for me as well.

For 3rd party applications, you'll have to contact the app developers. These bug reports don't belong here.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] MJL99:
Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

dammit. I had this issue with cm on my Inc 2 also. Can't remember what I did to get it to work. I think it was an updated build. Maybe eventually it will start working for me with further updates.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
In an effort to comply with the "eat your own dog food" philosophy, I am now using this as my daily driver. Until now I've been in a flux between CM for development and stock based ROMs for travel purposes where I couldn't risk being without phone. I am satisfied with the amount of functionality currently incorporated but look forward to resolving the remaining issues. Thanks to everyone for the testing reports received thus far.

Check that your cm-10.1-20130131-UNOFFICIAL-fireball.zip file has MD5: 3917f08a78d9b5db920707f0059df064

I briefly posted a build that was removed because it was missing a couple of build.prop lines related to GPS
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jcpowell:
Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

I'm sorry what I'm trying to say is I cannot tether out any data in any way with a 3rd party app or cm's built in tethering. If I'm understanding right even though I'm on "unlimited data" cm's hot spot will work just as a root 3rd party app. If I'm wrong and cm's app is no different than vzw hotspot I apologize for putting this issue here.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] MJL99:
Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

Others are having success with cm's native tethering. I am not but I have read of a possible fix. If you could try this I'd appreciate it since I'm in an area at work that I can't bet a data signal to test.

Uninstall all 3rd party tether apps. Wireless tether, barnacle, Fox fi, and any others you might have tried. Reboot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik. Then reboot and try the native cm tether in settings.

It's possible others that don't have issues only tried the native app and the 3rd party apps weren't installed to conflict with it.

Edit: I have just tried this fix and I can confirm that it does work. Native wireless tether is working now for me.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] jcpowell:

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] squeezyb:
Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

I have been having an WiFi issue. I believe that the phone is having trouble staying connected to WiFi networks that are not broadcasting their SSID. The phone will connect just fine, but then after a few hours of being on the WiFi it will disconnect. The only temporary solution to fix it is wiping the cache/dalvik cache. But the problem will reoccur after a few hours.

Everything seems to be fine on networks that do broadcast.

Not sure if anyone else is experiencing the same thing, just thought I would report a potential bug.

Thanks!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Pete02:
For anyone having battery issues...

I was losing about 10% an hour on my phone running CM so the other night I decided to let the phone discharge the battery down to the point where it just shut itself off and gave it a full charge while it was off. Today I'm happy to say I am currently at just over 12hrs with 60% battery power left. This is with only a few phone calls and light use but its definitely a big improvement from before.

On a side note, the native usb tethering app is working for me also. I could not get the native wifi hotspot app to work.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] MJL99:
Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

I have my router at home not broadcasting my ssid and it works just fine. When I'm at work I drop connection a lot. I think it has to do with the Wi-Fi radio. I have no idea how it would be affected but it seems to have a weak connection for me everywhere.

I posted a fix that worked for me earlier for Wi-Fi tether. Do you have 3rd party tether apps downloaded? If so uninstall them all and reboot into recovery. Wipe cache and dalvik then reboot. This solved my issue but it doesn't allow you to use 3rd party apps
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Linch89:
+1 for me personally my WiFi signal has always been weaker on aosp vs sense. This goes back to cm7 on og inc and inc2
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Pete02:
Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

I did have a third party app and I did just try your fix but wifi hotspot is still no go. Only the usb tethering works for me but I'm fine with it.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
New build posted.

Notable in this release is the addition of MTP support. You can choose between mass storage and mtp connection types from Settings > Storage > (menu) USB computer connection. MTP will enable you to access both internal and external storage when the device is connected to the computer. The mass storage connection type still only supports internal storage.

Otherwise, this build contains a lot of under the hood changes to the kernel and android has been updated to 4.2.1-r1.2 (JOP40G).

I'm having problems with Apollo on this latest build (0204). Nothing wants to play and the app just locks up. This in turn wigs my phone out. The screen goes black and I can't get it to come back on. I've had to do 2 battery pulls already this morning. I've wiped everything and done a clean install twice and Apollo still won't work. Pandora did the same thing to me. Is it working for you guys?
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] MJL99:
Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

Same thing on my end. Instead of locking up and doing a battery pull, mine rebooted itself. Google music acts up too and won't play.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
Looks like it's not specific to my build; it's a regression in cm that will likely be addressed soon. Check the EVO 4G LTE thread for similar comments.

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] mdmower:
Can you test sending a rather small picture (one not taken with the camera), maybe something around 100kb in size? I suspect the issue has to do with images exceeding Verizon's (or the receiving carrier's) specifications for max file size. If so, I can address this issue.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Linch89:
Yes I'll give that a shot. Anyone else having MMS issues

[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Pete02:
Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

I wasn't having any mms issues but I flashed back to 1/31 for now. Even tho I was lovin to be able to access my ext sd from my computer I can't live without my music. :p

Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

No issues to report actually seeing good connection I also go between 4G and 3G alot its been that way all the way back to stock. I no longer lose signal completely when it switches between the two.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
this happens to me after a reboot you lose your prl,(then wipe cache and dalvik, it's ok) still happening to me.also i selected mtp for usb connect, and neither drive was accessible.

everything else working ok, the video recorder seems to work, but i can't seem to locate where the video goes.

Re: [ROM] CyanogenMod 10.1 Unofficial Release Previews

Hmm so all day I had no signal except for Wi-Fi after flashing new update. Tried flashing old backups and nothing bright signal back. I actually had a radio signal once viper restored but then when I tried to make a call it lost connection. I settled on the previous backup of cm10 before today's update while at work. I've I left work and started home I got my radio back...don't know but I feel I have a degraded radio signal when on cm10. Nothing scientific behind that, just how it seems and throwing it out there.

Edit: it seems as if my 4g data works but my 3g doesn't now...not sure how to fix...

Also not sure if this was added to know issues but even with new update I still don't have a working notification led. But when plugged in and I get a msg, it flashes a yellow color between the amber and green charge light.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] Aldo101t:
same here on the LED
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] somerandomname1:
Don't know if it will help at all, but when I had the issue with my radio and flashed back to a Sense ROM, I lost signal as well when I tried to make a call. Then I went back to recovery and wiped cache and dalvik and rebooted and all was fine. THEN I went back to CM and had no issues.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] MJL99:
ill give this a try but am not hopeful. even tho i had a full signal and 4g i still cant make a call...

yeah after trying that i lost signal and couldnt get it back lol

Edit: I had to perform the steps in post 2 to get radio back to normal. Still on version 1/31 cause it's the most stable for me.
