I have never had signal issues and have always had LTE and never even seen the orange Google server problems everyone speaks of. Therefore I highly suggest everyone do what I did as clearly it helps.

1. Boot into stock ROM

2. Download Titanium backup and APN Backup & Restore

3. Using Titanium make APN a system app

4. Go into a explorer (Root Explorer or the like) move APN app from /system/app to /system/priv-app. (Required for jelly bean plus).

5. Open APN app. Ignore message and tap disable ICS check.

6. Backup the apns from stock ROM.

7. Boot into CM

8. Repeat steps 2-5 as necessary

9. Restore Stock APNs to CM choosing to overwrite and existing duplicated. (Keep clutter down)

10. If you choose to you can then make a backup of the now merged stock and cm apns that have been merged under your cm slot (I did just in case I ever need them)

This should help anybody that has issues. If anybody with a XT912 Verizon doesn't have time or has a recent version of CM that they don't like the apns for I have a stock +CM APN backup from months ago that will work for you and all you would have to do is go into APN backup and restore under cm and restore the file I give you (after setting up the app like I told you obviously). So if anybody wants that I will upload later. Also in case anyone is wondering the app needing to be system app was due to a permissions change that began in ICS where apns became unaccessible to other apps and the move to priv-app became necessary upon jelly bean due to further permission changes. But if you follow my instructions everything will work on 4.1-4.4 and you should be good to go with more stability and fully working LTE, 3G, everything. :)

Just a friendly note to you and any others with questions: developer forum protocol is to read the forum or to at least search for the answer to your problem before posting. I realize we are almost up to 4000 posts at this time, but in this case almost two pages prior to your question consist of discussions on the very problem you asked about!

I do not seek to offend anyone, and in your case I see that you have been a heavy contributor with an impressive amount of thanks... but we have very few devs working on this port, and our main man stargo works like a machine (for nothing) trying to perfect our RAZRs, so we tend to try to give him space, bug reports, but space.

Several of us also try to field the questions we can, but you got the brass ring, the word from the horses mouth! My humble suggestion to all is just to try to make sure you're not asking a question that has already been asked/answered/or is currently being worked on. Although some of us may be a bit wordy, we try to keep the thread streamlined and on the move, as our phone boldly go where no one ever intended them to go.

Again, please do not take offense, this is just a reminder of the nature and protocol for developer forums, both for you, and for all the lurkers who have a question: search is a powerful tool, please use it.

I too have been rarely getting LTE.

So I tried rolling back the apns-conf.xml file and deleting the databases and journal. Rebooted and all works fine. EXCEPT if I have wifi on.

It will not get an LTE connection unless I turn wifi off. Then LTE IMMEDIATELY comes in.

Oh, I am running 4/14 nightly and I have applied the wifi patch. (After searching I found out that the wifi fix only applies to problems with the wifi turning on)

Either way, if I turn off wifi I can get an immediately LTE signal.

And a weird thing also is that during the night, wifi always disconnects from my router. It is not connected when I get up. I have it set to stay connected.

I know these are a few separate issues but just wanted to lay them out.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Holy crap! He has filesystem errors that are serious. For sure try running fsck as Michael suggested, as root (su <enter>) in a terminal emulator window. If not, and you have or can make a known good Safe Strap backup (You must "restore" this backup at least once to insure that it definitely is a good backup.), then format the internal SD Card in Safe Strap and restore your backup. Then format will restore your SD card file system and hopefully, the Safe Strap backup will not include file system errors. This is really bad, you must address this issue at once! Operating on a bad filesystem could really crash your phone or cause some really freaky data loss.

Oh, you are showing a log. For a minute there, I thought you were instructing someone to enter the code in the box to a terminal. Hah! That is *way* too much to type, without a single mistake, into any kind of terminal or phone by hand. I was going to suggest a shell script he could run instead, but I was mistaken. You sure got a lot out of that log. The file system error is rather serious, good thing you pointed that out Michael. Thanks for everyone's benefit who sees something like that.

I got my own issues with 04/16. The dreaded "black screen while incoming call" is back. This is so frustrating, I cannot turn on Bluetooth headset, hangup the phone, anything. Even when phone rings, instead of the screen lighting, the buttons light, phone rings, and screen stays black. I can hit power button, silencing the ring, and hopefully get the screen lit to take the call before I miss it.

I want to get a log for you Micheal, but I probably waited too long for it now, however, I can now call myself from home and replicate the situation. Then capture a dmesg and a catlog, but what to filter for in catlog? I have a lot of Xposed entries all the time, what should I filter for before updating to get rid of this horrible black screen, IF an update will fix it? I will give you time to respond and PB to give you a flag you to read if you are online. I can only take so much of this and want to give you "perfect logs", Michael. Thanks.

NOTE:

Battery life does not seem so good on 04/16 either. Took it off charger this morning at 10:00 AM and by 5:00 PM, down to a very low percent, back on the charger again. Battery graph is not making a lot of sense, saying 17 hours on battery. I had it on charge all night with a full battery this morning. Is this like "total time on battery since reboot" or something? Hard to make sense of it, see screenshot.

Dropbox is not uploading my photos again. Not doing it at all, not even waking it up like I used to do. In 03/30, all of this worked quite well. Not anymore. :(

Oh! Suddenly, the screenshot is working again, saving to internal SD/Pictures/Screenshots and dropbox uploaded it! Phone is bogging down.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CoreyWillWhat:
Yeah I ran the fsck command about 20 times, then formatted my SD card as many people have the same issue with corrupted image files which it appeared to be. after that all seems okay! :)

@stargo

Getting the "no APN specified on device" with your latest apns-conf.xml that we thought had fixed it all. Seems to be related to MMS As it only comes up when receiving images or group messages occasionally.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] l33tlinuxh4x0r:
To all of the people with LTE issues...

I have my wifi on all the time but walk out of range and get LTE now pretty much instantly , I used to be stuck on 3g. Same thing if I turn off wifi.

Here is how to do it.

Settings > Mobile Networks > CDMA Subscription: Set it to RUIM/SIM

then while you are connected to a wifi network

Settings > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names: Select LTE Verizon Internet

Then back out of everything and reboot normally ASAP before doing anything else with the phone.

This should fix your LTE issues. It appears by default that the rom selects ehrpd verizon internet. We just need a dev to make the rom select the correct APN and we should be good.

Hope that this helps.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sonomazr2:
On current CM11 you have to go Settings > Mobile Networks. They moved it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] l33tlinuxh4x0r:
You are right but the fix is still the same. And it still works. Also I edited my post to reflect the current version.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] drewski_1:
When you're on WiFi, that's your data connection so no LTE. Not an issue.

I do have the WiFi disconnect issue you mention. Maybe last few weeks of nightlies.

Just want to thank all you folks that took the time to troubleshoot the LTE issues. I'm running 4/16, and by implementing both Jake and L33tLinux's suggestions, my data reception is vastly improved. Thanks again guys.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Hey that is awesome news. I love to hear a good story. I don't have signal issues, for whatever reason, I end up with the blackscreen issue. But at least it is working out for somebody and that is always good news. ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stargo:
Hi,

Uh, that's bad.

After looking at the apns again I just did a minimal change (just added LTE to one APN and left everything else CM default). Can you please try if this version still works fine with LTE and has working MMS: http://droid.cs.fau.de/cm-11.0/test/20140419/apns-conf.xml

Thanks & Regards,

MIchael
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CoreyWillWhat:
I'll give it a try. The "No APN specified on device" doesn't happen all the time though. If it helps at all, in order to fix it when it does happen, I have to reboot to recovery, wipe cache, dalvik, android secure, and fix permissions. If I dont do that it will continue to happen even with a reboot. I'll report back after the switch over to that apns-conf.xml. But it usually takes a day or two for the No APN specified on device message to appear with MMS issues. Next time it happens you want me to catch a syslog?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stargo:
Your blackscreen-problem is not the "usual" blackscreen problem (which I really hope is fixed now). Previously you couldn't get the phone to wake at all and had to reboot it to get the screen back. It seems you were able to turn the phone on and take the call, so the audio-subsystem didn't crash and take everything with it :)

You also say that the phone is slow and you have a high battery usage. I think this is related to your blackscreen-issue as the phone is just doing something with a higher priority and just wakes up really slow...

If you experience this the next time, just send me a dmesg and main-log right after this happened. I think the fastest way to get all logs is using SysLog and then just email me the zip.

And try to find out what your phone is doing. Maybe you can see some high wakelocks in better battery stats or wakelock detector.

Battery life and response-time is good for me with the current nightlies...

Regards,

Michael

---------- Post added at 02:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:23 PM ----------

Yes, that would be great. I hope I can get a clue which APN is really missing...

There are currently 110 APNs defined for Verizon, this is really mad. Sprint for example only has 6, and my provider (german t-mobile) only 3...

Regards,

Michael
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CoreyWillWhat:
That APN got 3g nearly instantly but LTE took 10 minutes, which goes back to the previous problem. I'm thinking I switch back to the previous APN with the LTE fixed and wait for No APN message and grab a syslog for you. Sound good? Or let me know if there's anything else you want me to try.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stargo:
Yes, sounds good.

Just to be sure: You got the "no APN on device" also with the official nightlies in april which don't switch to LTE rapidly? Because if so I have to change my comment on the change again: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/62679/

Thanks & Regards,

Michael
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CoreyWillWhat:
Correct, the "No APN specified on device" has existed throughout April official nightlies. That change fixed the LTE issue but the No APN issue remains.

Were they aware of the issue, or did they have any ideas as to the root cause?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] iZak17:
Hi there!

I agree, this ROM, is smooth, stable and really really battery friendly.

I just have two questions, I hope someone could help me:

1: Signal: this is a common issue I had with every single 4.3 and 4.3.1 ROM, I though It was solve on KK but I keep having a problem with the data service. If I'm on wifi, everything is perfect, but when I'm on 3G it happens that I lost my service (both GSM and HSDPA) so I can not make phone calls, neather make an internet connection. Is not enought with switch to airplane mode, changing to only 2G/3G, or making a hot reboot, I have to make a full restart to my device to get back my connection.

2. Storage: after flashing CM 11 and recover (manually) all my apps, I have moved a few apps to the external storage in order to get some free space in the infernal storage of my razr. But after making a reboot (for solving the problem #1) all the placed apps on the ext-sd desappeared so I had to Install it again and leave it on the internal storage.

Any idea? Any advice?

Thanks in advanced.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Eighthourblink:
Been using this for about a week now.

Really the the only thing that is not working is that I will lose 3g connectivity quite often. Don't know if I should try to fix permissions or if someone else has found a fix?

Also trying to put the phone in airplane mode temporary doesn't work.

weird activity with battery!

hey i love the rom... its smooth, light on ram, cam is good enough! but i flashed jbx2.0 with the trickster mod installer and xposed and all!

i see that the battery quickly goes off to sleep when phone locked but! the battery gets drained heavily if screen is on and if the gps is on then the battery went like crazy from 40 to 20%....!

i did not use wifi,3g or anything for 10 hours plus it was only used for few calls so the battery usage was awesome! like 10 hours for like around 10 % only!

but as i switched wifi and was doing some work on phone, battery drained very fast!

phone used with only few mins of wifi and rest calls for 22 hours, the battery left was 45%... but as soon i switched gps, wifi and all and started working on it, the battery drained to 15% in an hour!!!

please advise as i really want to keep this rom!

i even flashed it over my official 4.1.2 as i wanted to use 4.4...

i couldnt use the trickster mod and i am on conservative(as i have trust on it with my other phones..)

advise????? :confused::confused::confused:

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Thanks for your advice, Michael. I don't know where the actual /var/log/messages file is on Android. But the SysLog app you suggested should do the trick. I actually restored 03/30 to test the phone for a few days. I want to be sure that the phone is alright and that this backup I am upgrading over is solid. It could be I am upgrading over a backup that is not as good as I think. Who knows, I might have to go clean. So far, so good. When I go back to April builds again, I will get your logs.

Previous black screens were similar. Buttons light but not the screen. I didn't have a "sluggish" phone or battery eater though. Maybe there is an app taking priority and keeping the phone awake or some other explanation. I will try not to install anything new but for the logging and battery tools you mentioned.

I know you are working hard on APN and Network issues, this black screen w/lit buttons, high battery consumption, and sluggish phone does not seem to be a common complaint. So it makes me believe that I am doing something wrong or have an issue with the backup I am OTA updating from.

2 Questions, Michael, anybody:

Where is the /var/log/messages file or files stored on Android 4.4? (/proc/kmsg)

Are you guys now on late April builds installing clean, from scratch? Or have you OTA updated from previous builds? How far back?

I never had signal or network issues before with this phone. Other than a long time ago having to get off the default "Global" network and switching to CDMA+LTE/EvDo. If I can get a good install, maybe clean, and test it, this might help me and others track down the last remaining bugs.

Thanks for popping in, I really appreciate the support. You sure do get around and inspire a lot of confidence. :good:

UPDATE:

A friend had issues with only getting 3G and then no signal at all. He was going to revert to something else, but wiped dalvik, cache, and android secure. That fixed his issue.

I have Samsung Tablet, Tab 2 10.1 GT-P5113 with cm11, 04/12 on it. This device does not have phone networks or carrier, it is wireless only. Although it is really nice, it needs rebooting daily because it takes several attempts to unlock the screen, background disappears, tablet is "dragging and slow" until reboot. Since there is no Mobile Network on the tablet, these are other issues and are consistent through the 2nd week April builds. Once rebooted, system is snappy again until later or tomorrow.

I have yet to see themes work at all. I am using Apex launcher but using build in Trebuchet does not offer anything in Themes but a pretty picture and nothing else. Do themes work at all? Thanks.
