[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] :
For both 2.69 and 2.71, I have the following problem:

1. Signal could drop to zero for no reason while being statically placed on the desk, upon turning on then off Flight Mode, the signal return.

2. Sometimes, when trying to send SMS, the phone says "Network is not ready, please wait 15 sec. and retry again." And no matter how long I waited, the same message came up. And I had to switch on and off Flight Mode to make it work.

These problem doesn't happen everyday nor does it happen just a particular spot in town. And I can't recall having similar issue with 2.19 before.

2.19 to 2.71 experience

I have wm6 tnt 1933 series rom date 9/30/07 ipl/spl 2.26

Mspeed test went up to 70kb from 39kb radio rom 2.19.11.

I never received calls and never received vm reminder.

If it matters I have the cingular fix installed.

Anyone have such issues.

Edit

switched back to 2.19.11

upgraded to ipl/spl 3.08

mspeed test went up to 70kb plus

received all calls

upgraded to 2.71.11

lost the E icon only shows G

mspeed test stayed around 70kb and up

No calls coming in

going back to 2.19.11

Good thing I tried 3.08 that helped my internet connection

I am in NYC if that helps

That's funny. I have the same problem using 2.69. I also would have a whole day of missed calls with full signal. Are there any remedies for this? :confused:

Some Impressions from 2.71

I've been using this radio (2.71) for a couple of weeks now with both mfazzz's ROM and Octaivoi V6. It seems to work fine but I don't see major improvement over 2.19. 2.71 might have a somewhat better signal strength and a shorter acquisition time though.

installing the radio rom...

Hey guys,

I'm relatively new to all this and usually am able to follow installations to the T. I've flashed my phone to other roms maybe a dozen times, and am still having problems with them; but that's another story altogether.

Unfortunately, I don't even know where to begin on how to install this radio rom. It's a zip/rar file with the radio nk.nbf file. How can I install it on my wizard??? Do I just drop it in a certain directory in my phone??? Does it have to be installed with another program?

Thanks.

Will it be added to the rom that is on the phone now? Or will the "Radio Rom" replace it?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] AgentSmith:
A radio update simply replaces the existing radio and leaves the OS alone.

I wonder why so many people are eager to try these somewhat 'experimental' radio's. I always used 2.19 and never missed a call. Then again what does upgrading the radio really do? I mean, if you buy a random non-Windows mobile phone it simply always works no matter which network you are on. So what makes 2.19 different from newer versions anyway?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] 177media:
Its not that I am looking to upgrade, really. More, I don't have a radio, and did not want to replace the ROM that I have.

Thanks for that though! Makes good sense now. :D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mtrix:
imho it processes GSM signal in some other way so some of us notice better signals and all, also i noticed newer version has less battery usage.

2.71 technicalities???

Hey guys,

So I'm back, being my complaining self... :p

This is what I've had lately with the 2.71 radio rom; My phone reception is amazing!... When I am in clear reception areas! I don't know how selective of areas 2.71 may be. It's just that it goes in and out of reception (full reception mind you, not just a few status bars) whenever I'm in certain areas like my office for eaxmple. When I'm inside the building, I may lose reception, where as my last radio rom left me with little recetion, but reception was still available!

I'm not sure if that has to do with the rom, but when I have beam turned on my 8125 phone, the reception is completely lost. Or when I connect to my computer via usb cable, my reception is lost too! I did upgrade my phone to the lastest rom TNT.19199 and it's amazing (Except for these points of course)!

Anyone got an idea? Should I downgrade to the most popular radio rom - 2.19??? Or could it be something else?

Phil

I installed it, and did the over night test. Approx 8 hours.

Your Radio picks up your carriers signal. They are not experimental Radios... check it out. http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard_Upgrades

Radio 2.19.11 just sucked for me, at home, I never got a signal using radio 2.19.11.

I used 2.47.11 for the longest time but the battery drained a little faster than all the others, 2.19.11., 2.25.11, 2.60.11, and 2.69.11. Actually 2.25.11 is AT&T's Radio but I do not get a good a signal at my house,

Then came 2.71.11, I get better reception than 2.47.11 and less battery drain. Why not.

I have only once had the missed call problem. That was with a rom I tried to cook:)

Sorry if this is posted elsewhere but I looked for a while and couldn't find it. I was having a hard time updating my radio to 2.71.11 and wondering if I had to downgrade first. At some point, I took out the Storage Card and I was able to update the ROM immediately. Hope this helps some other noob out there.

I know they are not really experimental. Check the quotes in my previous post. And I know what a radio does, it just doesn't really make sense to me why there are so many versions whilst 'normal' phones (again quotes ;)) simply work out of the box, anywhere and on every network.

Strange because 2.19 almost never looses the signal here. Often I even have a (weak) signal when other phones already lost connection. 2.19 still rules for me and I cannot really imagine why that would be different for others (except maybe in highly exceptional cases) since it's all the same hardware.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Pumpiron579:
Man, I don't even know why I am repling to this, all i can say is that I am happy that radio 2.19.11 works for you. It does not for me.

The Wizard hardware is the same, but the radio Rom is different...

Read in the Wizard wiki, under LINKS

Updating Radio ROM - Better sound, quicker to pick up signal when starting up.

A satisfied Radio Rom Upgrade.......

"I should've been more specific. I update my radio with the d/l provided.

2 things about my Kjam that made me want to throw at the wall...

1. Poor reception/lack of signal.

2. When using the speakerphone, the other person would complain of static and scratchy noises.

Now, I'm sitting in my house where I usually have zero, as in searching, signal. Now I have between 1 and three bars, and good reception. For the first time since I got it, 5 months ago, I could use it in my house.

Both people I called on speakerphone said the call was clear with no noises.

Thanks again."
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mr.incredible:
Not what it seems

2.71 radio was a total bust for me twice. I tried a straight upgrade over 2.19 then a total rebuild from the Button ROM to T-Mobile stock then 2.71 Radio. Both times sitting in the same place I get no signal where I get 3 bars on 2.19. I think that what people are mistaking as great signal 4bars is just a slow reaction or never changing reaction of the signal strenth. The signal strength indicator is not a direct reading of the signal. It's just a graphical indication of a programs interpretation of the signal. If the program is buggy then you may not get a true reading. I've seen similar results on 2.69 and 2.47.

I can tell by voice quality in known low signal areas that the signal strenght isn't reading correctly. I live in the Tampa Bay area. We have two long bridges here that only the best phones can keep connection all the way across. With 2.71 even while talking I got 4 bars but dropped the call several times mid bridge.

There is still no more stable ROM than 2.19.11

Hey dude, chill. :) Used radio 2.19 on many networks in quite a few countries and it has never let me down. Poor reception, scratchy noises, it sounds to me your phone's hardware has some flaws. I would have it checked if I were you. There's no way software can compensate for bad hardware.

Wow! A psychiatrist would have a field day in 'here', wouldn't he? When a person gets THAT dramatic in an e-mail, posting, or other message-type, especially over something as 'logical' as the functionality of software, it's extremely likely there's a hidden reason for that behavior. Would it surprise any of you to know that reps of all the companies and organizations involved have SOMEONE registered as a user on this forum? And I do realize this appears somewhat off-topic (actually, conspiracy-theory-ish is more like it!), but it really does go towards how to better recognize and deal with the 'opposition's efforts' against the amazing support that you, xda-developer's forum, as a group, provide to the general public. That's every phone company, every provider, every service department that doesn't get that big payment for the simplest fixes (hey, look... all this one needed was a hard reset! Har Har Har Har Har... clean it up and send it back and we'll charge them $300.00!!! Plus shipping!!!)

And the other developer's that would rather get paid for doing what you do - hopefully for big wigs with fat wallets and fancy, 'complicated' phones! Everyone from Microsoft, Apple, Sony, etc. all the way down to Billy Joe Jim Bob's Hog Lick, Ark.-based Ozarksoft Developer's Shack, inc. (trademark pending! don't getcha any idears there, now, ya'here?). These guys know from research that its fairly easy to discourage someone working tirelessly and without compensation; to push an individual to the point of quitting - there've been studies! Knowing this may help your attitude during those late night - early morning sessions where you just want to try one more thing before you 'sneak' back to bed with the Mrs.! Recompile, burn, install and test. Test - test - test... Then test some more!

Now, some of these are doing legitimate research into what's currently available, and at what level, but I have noticed that with the limited number of phones I have had, there has never been an authorized service center, anywhere - all warranty service is thru the phone's 'provider'! Do you think they don't want to protect that market? I know you do!

Anyways, this 2.71.11 radio is awesome - I haven't used the phone function (I use my Tilt), but all my apps work, my wifi and internet work. I have decades of experience testing apps and system setups, and I'm giving this a thumbs up for Wizard's using a decent WM6.1 ROM. Remember, don't let the bad guys get ya down!

Just wanted to let you know how appreciated your work is! Thanks! And to quote the ever-eloquent Fat Tony from a Simpson's episode, "Youse guys do crack me up, so!"

Hello, all.

I have a tricky problem here.

Let me tell the background of the problem first.

Basically, I flashed cf-autoroot using odin on my phone and it restarted all perfectly, then I restarted it to download mode using pc command "adb reboot download" since trying from my phone always gets stucked on download mode warning screen, PRESSING VOL UP DOES NOTHING.... When I reached download mode, I FLASHED TWRP V2.8.0 using ODIN, it went directly to home screen not recovery, then I powered it down and restarted it to recovery mode and since then its stuck on Samsung boot logo with 'recovery not seandroid enforcing screen' . I tried to boot into download mode using VOL DOWN + POWER KEY since my HOME BUTTON IS FAULTY AND DOESNT WORK. So, I get to the download mode warning screen, BUT pressing volume up OR volume down does nothing and I have to keep POWER + VOL DOWN pressed for about 10 seconds again to come to download mode warning screen. How can I go to download mode when I cant access the TWRP recovery and also have A NON-WORKING home button :( .

I have used Package Disabler on both the Note4 and Note5, most recently on Note5 Marshmallow and now Nougat. It got a few updates over the last few months and I don't know if that was that cause but my battery life seemed yo get worse. I uninstalled it and disabled what I could of the AT&T and Samsung crap, and now it seems to run better and definitely gets better battery life. I'm up to 5 hour screen time without having to charge during the day.

If you do decide to use it, be careful what you disable, though. I think anything AT&T can be disabled without a problem. There are plenty of lists out there that tell you what you can and can't disable. Good luck!

I have phone network unlocked from AT&T.

I am having a problem getting it to work on Verizon. When I was messing around with the settings I was actually able to receive text messages for a little bit but I was unable to send texts. I then took it into a verizon store and they reset all settings and I was never able to get to that point before.

Is there anything I can do? I tried setting apn settings but the phone gets angry and locks the profile. If I received texts at one time there HAS to be a way to get this to work. Correct?

Thank you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] maliibu31:
Yes, flash the Verizon firmware if you haven't already. I'm assuming you're using an active SIM, yes?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Loftydsm:
Yep, active SIM. That being said all of the S7 Edges will work on all bands, right? I just gather that AT&T has the network preference locked from the factory.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] maliibu31:
Yes, however the carriers and their respective firmware lock out certain bands. AT&T and T-Mobile disable Band 13, while Verizon disables Band 12. The U model, however, has all bands unlocked, so you can flash the latest G935U firmware (which now has Nougat) on your S7E.

I went from a G935A to a G935V and it worked, however I haven't tested to see if a G935U firmware would work.

Correct, black is turned off, but with black background, light coloured icons are on, and quickly burn in compared to those around it.

But this seems ridiculously quick.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] thedicemaster:
oled burn-in is actually caused by pixels being turned off, but shouldn't be visible this quickly.

it's caused by active pixels being "used up" quicker than inactive pixels.

but are you sure there's actual burn in?

the navigation and notification bars aren't completely transparent, they'll always show a faint black background that looks a bit like a shadow.

and on oled screens that completely disable "black" pixels often have a slight delay when switching between black and colored.
