How to "fix" data drops!

This isn't a real fix‚ as it only uses an app (Connection Controller) from the play store that every once in a while‚ will toggle data off then on at user defined intervals! This is an ugly fix but I works enough for me to use this ROM as a daily driver. Data disconnects for about 5-15 seconds but nevertheless it works. I left my Jewel on and running for about 9 hours‚ woke up‚ and picked up my device tapped browser and BAM up and down arrows on my 3g ;) I am now in the process of finding another app like that one that has reset intervals of at least every 5 minutes. So enjoy guys. This ROM is the shizz yo. Thanks deck. Hope this helps someone and if so hit thanks.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] InTheRough:
Data drop

I'm still testing this, but since installing SignalCheck Pro, it seems to be keeping the data connection alive. I think the app polling the signal may be helping. Give it a try and report back. You can use the SignalCheck free version to try it. It will use some battery, but it uses less if you don't open the app to check the readings, just let it run in the background.

Is anyone else having problems with mms? I never receive them when they are sent to me. I've tried using Handcent, the stock messaging app, and hangouts. I just never get it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BUBBA DUB'S:
Never had that, you up to date on everything?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] suicidal acorn:
I'm on 12/17, but I know that's not the newest. I just don't know how to get the newest one because it isn't in this thread. I was just going to wait until deck posted it here, but the mms issues I'm having are really annoying me. I've tried wiping my phone too and it didn't fix it either.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
IRC, as always
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] thenags:
Weird thing I've noticed. I've had the horrible data issues like everyone. Constantly having to toggle my data to get it back. Well, I've changed nothing. Haven't flashed anything lately. Haven't installed anything. And in the last 48hrs my data has been working flawlessly.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] suicidal acorn:
I use Tasker to turn off data every time I turn my screen off and turn it on when I turn my screen on, and I never have a problem with data. I know that won't work for everyone, but it might work for some. Plus it really helps save battery too.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] numel007:
Won't that cause issues with background syncing? For example, I'd have to turn my phone on to make sure I receive emails and such, otherwise I'd never get them at all. I like the idea though!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] suicidal acorn:
Yes, but to fix that, every 15 minutes I have Tasker turn my data on for 2 minutes and then turn it back off. I did this originally to save battery, but I noticed it also fixed my issues with data.

It still won't work for people who do things like streaming Pandora though.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
I haven't had data issues on either of the ROMs posted after 12/17. I also got a replacement device a few days ago, which seems to be working much better than my previous device.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tntong:
As Captain_Throwback had said, data connection problems has been fixed in the latest nightly! Now, how about the MMS problem? :)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
^ FAIL.

Not sure why you're mentioning Nightlies in here. Read the FAQ.

And I have no "MMS problem," so I don't know to what you're referring.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tntong:
the 12/17 build gave me the data problems and loaded 01/18 nightly build and it fixed it.

i can send MMS abut i can't receive MMS anymore. i'm getting email notifications from people who has sent me MMS but i can't see anything from them. i can live w/out receiving MMS for now since everything about cm11 is pretty awesome. hoping a fix comes out for it soon for people like myself.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
I'm on deck's 1/17 build and I have no MMS issues. But again, this thread is not about Nightlies. Anything in the Nightlies will have been in these builds first. I'll say it again - Read the FAQ.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] tntong:
How can I get my hands on deck's 1/17 build?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] suicidal acorn:
I have the same mms issues on decks 12/17 build. I was going to flash the 1/5 build (if I remember right) a couple days ago, but something came up and I haven't been able to yet. Maybe I'll go to the irc and ask for the latest, but everyone talks about how you'll get trolled and made fun of if you go there, so I just always avoided it and stuck to the ones deck posted on here.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
As long as you don't go in there demanding stuff, you'll be fine. Be nice, make conversation, don't be a jerk and people will respond in kind. As long as it's not Thursday, in which case there's more than the usual amount of trolling. But seriously, it's all meant in fun, so as long as you don't take it too seriously, it's totally fine. "For reals."
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] suicidal acorn:
Thanks for the clarification. I'll just make sure to be extra nice on Thursdays haha.

Just clean flashed the 1/17 build and I received all the mms messages that I haven't received the past month :D

---------- Post added at 01:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:22 PM ----------

I am still having one issue though. There is a constant notification saying that I have a new voicemail, even though I do not. I have tried everything that I have heard of to fix it. I have called voicemail and made sure there are none, left a voicemail from another phone, waited a few minutes, then deleted that one. Notification is still there. I have installed google talk, but the notifaction remained. I then installed a sprint visual voicemail app for aosp roms and it said I had no voicemails. I am out of ideas here. Has anyone else had this issue?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
What version of the app are you using? You may need to leave yourself a voicemail and delete it to get rid of the notification. I don't know of the phantom voicemail fix made it into the build yet, but I know the 9016 messages are suppressed yet.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] suicidal acorn:
I tried that already, but I will try it again. I have had the problem for so long that it doesn't really bother me too much anymore, but it would still be nice to have it gone. But it isn't a big deal.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Aeonus:
Oops. :o

I have read it but for some reason didn't remember that when I was browsing the website and saw nightlies with recent build dates.

Sorry!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Traceamount:
I've gone in there a handful of times trying to get a link over the last 2 months or so - always the same result, a smart ass comment and no link, no matter how politely I try to ask. Even tried leaving it up for a days time or so in hopes someone else might find the proper was to ask for the link since my ways didn't seem to cut it. I've enjoyed Decks work for some time, over multiple devices, kinda sad to jump through hoops and d-baggery (in there) to get an update :(

That being said, any other way to get updated link to his latest? Or maybe someone specific to ask in there? Thanks - would be nice to be past this data issue, love the rom.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] andrew378:
Can someone PM me the link as well?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JGillis2391:
Yep, anytime I go in there for anything I have to deal with the same stuff. Never fails. They will help but you have to take all the insults/smartass comments with it. I honestly don't know why they are like that but I try to avoid the irc for that reason.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
I haven't seen anyone ping me for a link in there :rolleyes:.

But when you ask for a link, you must also be specific. Remember that it's not a CM-specific channel. It's a general channel for the device. So, just asking for a link to "the latest" isn't specific enough. A lot of users still prefer Sense, so you could be looking for the latest stock rooted, especially if you're trying to S-OFF. Or perhaps you want to know what the latest TWRP is for our device. Or maybe you want to know what the latest Omni or stable CM10.2 is. Get my point?

Bottom line, be friendly, be nice, be specific, and learn to ping if you really can't find anyone to help. And if you get trolled or kicked, don't take it personally, which it seems most of you are doing. Seriously, it really shouldn't hurt your feelings so much to be playfully chastised/berated by people you don't even know on the internet. Once the people in the channel realize you're not trying to be a jerk, and not just popping in, asking for a link, then leaving, they will be more likely to help.

There's a reason the links on IRC stay on IRC, so it's important that the people we give the links to have enough patience to wait to get a link, because we really want people who will have the same patience with their ROMs and be able to offer clear and helpful feedback. I've said all this before, but no one seems to want to listen. And that appears to be why some of you have this experience.

Sorry but it appears some of the flame and arguing posts were wiped away in the great "flame flood" of 2014.

It appears to have taken the inflammatory and disrespectful posts to some netherworld. Thankfully it seems to have left the rest of the thread intact.

In order to avoid another such flood, or more tragic occurrences, please remember the rules about treating each other with respect. Let's also try not to derail this development thread with arguments. Use the report system, use the Q&A Forum, use Google.

Haxsync doesnt show up on my play store app..?? I tried to google search it as well but seems that it's apk is off in the distance somewhere lol..

And yes I am not to fond of having facebook all over my phone, but im the manager at an LA Fitness and I have so many facebook friends asking me for passes and stuff and most people who have facebook will have their number listed so it's easier for me to shoot out text messages that way, instead of manually opening facebook and going to their profile and such, i can just goto my people app, and bam there's the #.. I went back to 4.2.2 for now until that gets resolved with 4.4.2 so hopefully someone finds a fix because I did like the layout of 4.4.2..!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jamieg71:
I believe the Dirty Unicorn has Facebook sync fixed natively if that's a viable alternative. There is a commit that can be added for a build, but I would have to check commit history to find it and I'm not 100% on whether anyone has brought that commit up for 442 yet.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Will Rickards:
I'm on the 1/17 build. Working great so far. Thanks deck!

However I noticed that apps moved to the internal sd card (sdcard0 as opposed to the micro sd slot - sdcard1) aren't showing up in Launcher home screens after a reboot.

It let's you add the app. But when you reboot they go missing.

Known issue? Not an issue as it is a google launcher and I should use Launcher3?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] StringTheory:
Well.. When you play a message the sound goes all screechy and filled with static at the end of the message and then you get no sound out of vvm until a reboot. And data is still not great. Probably crappy sprint here. But any switching of lte to 3g to 1x and back against zombifies data here in my area. I have to toggle data multiple times a day and can make navigation unuseable at times...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NastyNasdaq:
Yeah, that's the same exact thing my voicemail does.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] blinksilver:
The one david had mentioned a few posts up. I don't have this device, I'm trying to get a sense of how stable things really are. Initially there was a bug where data did to transition gracefully from 1x evdo and lte. That seems to have finally been fixed in CM(correct me if I am wrong?) but I now read about this bug. I'm sorta hoping to put something stablish together for a friend in the next month or so. I just need a reasonably good donor build to start from.

Not blaming this on CM11, this goes for any of the 4.4 Roms I have tried. But I'm posting this here because I'm currently running the 1/17 IRC build of CM11. Google wallet is not working for me. NFC is enabled, Wallet is configured and Tap and Pay is setup. Google Wallet is checked in Settings / Tap and Pay. I have never had a problem using it at Whole Foods with a 4.3 rom or earlier, so as a test I restored my nandroid to 4.3. Went back to Whole Foods and it worked.

Has anyone been able to use Google Wallet to Tap and Pay?

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
Well, being as though we're currently using some blobs from 4.1.2, which is the latest we have for the device, why wouldn't having newer files help with compatibility and functionality?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Because they'd still be outdated. Lol.

(I know you know radio and blobs far better than I,cap'n,but is that not a valid point?)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] numel007:
The new blobs would be the closest we could get to having the latest, since we can't port blobs from other devices. Newer is usually better. This is of course assuming we don't get another update after this one.

General statement : I know you guys experience screen on lag. It seems for me that the longer I use the rom, the worse it gets. Currently I get it maybe 3/5 I hit the power key. No new apps installed either, interactive governor. Been running for maybe a month now and I don't think too many new files have been written to my system.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
Numel007, I honestly haven't had any screen on lag with any of the cm builds or derivatives of it.

Do you under volt? It's also possibly a device issue.

Some had the problem worse than others with the Evo 4g too.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
There's also speculation that the interactive governor is the culprit, and to try ondemand instead.

P.S. About to flash the new IRC build ;).

Stuck on digital roaming

I did a clean flash of IRC build 2/2 yesterday, and my phone won't connect to Sprint voice. I can get an LTE/3G connection, but my notification bar says "Searching for Service.." instead of Sprint. I also can't make/receive voice calls when this is happening - I get a network not available message when I try to make a call.

I am on the latest radios/firmware already. I've tried toggling between LTE/3G, roaming mode home/automatic, etc. Still can't connect to Sprint. This is at home and at work, about 35 miles away.

Anyone else seeing this?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] numel007:
My private builds of PacRom are experiencing the same thing. Try toggling airplane mode. You might lose data and connect to digital roaming. If this happens, don't worry you're still on Sprint. The device just seems to have issues with detecting the network. Most likely a CM issue.

cannot send MMS

You should be fine. Test if you're on 3g by going to sprint and checking data usage. Then download an app while "roaming." Wait half an hour and your 3g data used should change. That's how I made sure I wasn't actually roaming.
