Hi All
I used the unlocker v2a and it worked great, but since then I just realized that sometimes my phone looses the GPRS or 3 G signal and put an x (but it still has signal GSM because the phone works). It happens when it looses the signal (i.e.: in the tube), after going to open air again it gets GSM signal but it keeps the x on the G or 3G space. I go to "Flight mode", the activate it, and the de-activate it to get the phone function working again and then it starts working well (with G or 3g symbol) again. I don't know if I explained myself properly. Hope it's nothing related with the unlocker and just a temporary and strange behaviour.
Thanks for your help
Upgrade your radio to a non patched one if you are not happy with the patched radio. BTW, the issue should not be related to the unlocker.
Just don't know
Hi POF,
I just said that it's a possible issue, but don't know!
If nobody is having a similar issue I assume that isn't related to the unlocker!!
Do you reccomend to update the radio to a non patched one?, which one?
Thanks a lot
In vodafon spain I'm quite happy with 1.16
I'll follow your advice
Ok, I will stay with 1.16. One stupid question: is it possible that this Radio version works better when using Vodafone than with Movistar? I'm using both sim cards.

I'm also using both... voda contract and movistar prepaid... Haven't used movistar for data dough, but it's just fine for calls.
Stupid guy
POF, sorry for bothering.
1)The unpatched version is better (or more stable) than the patched one?. If yes I'll upgrade. I'll follow your reccomendation. You're the master!
2) After reading the Wiki still not clear if I should start from Bootloader mode or not!
Thanks
1: should not be any difference, but just to make sure your problem is not related to the unlocker, flash the unpatched one.
2: It doesn't matter... but I always prefere to start from bootloader and with activesync disabled, it can avoid problems some times.
Weird Things happened after unlocking my phone
i All
Maybe I'm paranoid, but after using the 1st unlocker and the the Version2a one I notice some strange things:
- In Today screen, the unread messages show wrong info (my mail is empty and it keeps saying I've got 2 messages!)
- Sometimes the 3G connection starts alone (Push email disconnected and ActiveSync on manual updates)
- It gets blocked sometimes and I must soft-reset (in the past it worked very well)
- After recovering the lost signal, it doesn't recover the 3G or G symbol (it puts X), but it has GSM signal.
My question is:
- Is there any solution without hard-reseting?
- Is there any good ROM and/ or RADIO that will fix my issues?
Thanks!!!
I joined your two posts in one, there is no point in opening a new thread.
Again, your problems have nothing to do with the unlocker, I really don't understand why you keep insisting on that.
Hard reset and set up your settings correctly, this will fix your issues.
?
POF
Sorry for opening a new post.
I'm just saying that it all started after using the unlocker, don't take it persoanlly!.
If nobody has issues with it it's clear it's not related with your program. If I do Hard Reset I will loose all my programs, right?
You say, set up your settings correctly. How do I do that?
Will it remain unlocked?
Thanks

Sorry if this is a dumb Question but I have not been able to find a true answer.
What is the advantage of updating My Radio Rom from 1.20 to either 1.27 or 1.35 or should I leave well enough alone.
Its up to you, the 1.35.00.11 version of the radio has the GPS chip enabled, but as you will see in the GPS thread the GPS chip works but has no antenna. The radio should be more stable, and i noticed an increase in the range of my 3G area with it. Make sure to use the version available here (at the top) because they push "des SSPL" to the phone so you dont need to worry about which bootloader or CID you have (not that it matters about CID with radio upgrades...but you know what i mean )
Thanks, i'll probably upgrade to 1.35 using the link you provided
Just upgraded, very straightforward.
One slight issue. After upgrade and soft reset I could not make a data connection.
I made a voice call just to check that was working . . .
then all was OK.
Don't know if the voice call sorted it or what
just make sure you have GPS off or your battery will be in for a ride

Hi,
I also flashed 1.35 nice and easy. So where can you turn GPS off ?
Thanks for the help

Don't worry, GPS isn't enabled unless you install the VRSerial driver (which aint easy....). Even then, it's only turned on when an application specifically opens the GPS comm port.

Hi Sleuth255,

I recently upgraded and it was a major improvement for me. Far fewer dropped calls, better reception, etc.
I have noticed a noticeable decrease in in-call volume...is this an issue with this rom? At max volume, I have trouble hearing in a noisey environment...never had this problem before.
RUU_1.35.00.11_radio_only.exe wants to connect to the internet?
I upgraded my radio rom yesterday and kept the installation file, RUU_1.35.00.11_radio_only.exe, on my laptop. I downloaded the file with the link supplied in the wiki page.
Now today I get a warning from my f-secure saying that the exe file “RUU_1.35.00.11_radio_only.exe” wants to connect to the internet. I clicked deny and it kept trying to connect four more times then it stopped. I scanned the file for viruses and Trojans but F-Secure didn’t find any.
Anyone else had the same problem or perhaps knows whats going on?

Hi,
HOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM!!!
After install this radio version, my phone want to start...
WiFi is ok
BT is ok
But the phone remain in of, even i restart it using the wireless manager...
Some suggestion?

load up dotFred's taskmanager and see if the RIL service has started.
@ricott:
I built that RUU with an unregistered copy of WinRAR. Maybe it's phoning home for some reason....

If the phone won't start, after flashing radio 1.35, simply reflash the SO.

Did you upgrade from 1.34.00.10 or a lower version radio ?
Would like to know if there is any "real" advantage to upgrade from 1.34.00.10 to 1.35.00.11 ?
I am experiencing some missed calls due to the always GPRS / 3G connection I am running for emoze push mail.
Having intermittent problems with my mobile internet and was wondering if it was the phone, other users or just plain crap signal.
Have anything between 2 to 5 bars here, hsdpa symbol on constantly but for some reason it occasionally gets stuck on the upload arrow and then the data connection freezes and wont come back on til I toggle mobile network or airplane mode.
Phone is running modaco 2.2c and latest radio on T-Mobile UK.
Hi. Been lurking around since I got my Hero, and thought it was about time I signed up to this excellent forum.
I was having exactly the same problem. Didn't know whether it was a problem with the Hero or the network/signal. I noticed that the APN settings on my Hero were different to the t-mobile site. I read around a bit and tried a few combinations of settings and eventually got it sussed.
Go to t-mobile.co.uk
Hover over "Help & Support" at the top and click "Phone Support". Click "Make the most of your mobile" and choose the G2.
Click on "Set up the phone for internet surfing" and enter the details shown there exactly in a new APN on your Hero.
The only change to those details is the password should be "pass".
This is the only APN setting i have tried that doesn't give me the original problem. Now I can browse without the 3g signal getting "stuck"
I'm using an unlocked Hero - completely stock btw.
Hope this helps. Let me know how you get on.
I've been having this very problem. That's good information, I'll give it a try.
Seems to work well. Here's the link.
thanks for pointing me there.
k i altered my settings, will test it thru day see if it improves.
Ooh, seems to be working so far. Seems I owe you a beer. Lol.
After a day or two using this 'fix' I find it the drop still happens sometimes but not as often.

No. That's not the password given on the T-Mobile site.
My installation has been working fine and I even managed to increase battery life by installing "Juice".
Suddenly, about 3 days ago I noticed the phone was saying no signal. I was clearly getting data, as my apps worked and I was getting eMail alerts and downloads, but no calls.
I tried restarts, but to no avail. I am using Rod_100 UK as I am on Vodafone UK... I assume it is correct, certainly worked for the past month.
I have had to revert back to Windows Mobile.
My immediate thoughts are it is Juice that is causing it. I have just logged back in to my XDAndroid to write this and Juice did not load, and guess what, the signal has come back.......
Just in case is there anything else to look for?
Never heard of "Juice". I have heard of JuiceDefender however...
If you don't have the issue on a clean install, I'd say that app (or one of many I'm assuming you have installed) is the culprit. Rename your data.img and boot, see what happens.
Yes, it is JuiceDefender, apologies for the abbreviation.
I un-installed it and I have network again, but I guess I will loose battery longevity again, not that it made a huge difference.
I'll keep my eye on it....
Still no improvement
No, still not working. I get no signal, when I am in eye shot of a mast and on WM I get a full signal. I am booting in to WM to a deluge of SMS messages that I had not received, mostly vMail notifications, to which the messages are from calls that I did not receive.
The radio is not as strong and keeps dying on me requiring a reboot
I dont know what exactly but some program is giving android problems

Make sure you're up to date.*
Delete (move, rename) data.img.
Format SD. Full format. HP tool.

The startup file
Sorry, ignore me.
After the change, I double clicked the Android shortcut to launch Android, but it would not start, so I assumed the file had to be executable (as it was the only item I had changed)... I had forgotten to disconnect my TP2 from my laptop!
I've done so now and it has launched. A stupid user errorhttp://media.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
I'll keep you posted on any changes.
Ha, fair enough. Enjoy.
Solved. Keep loosing Radio
OK. I tried all the above. Delete data.img, and check the startup script/cmd.... none worked. At some point I would loose the network connection.
As it started within days of loading JuiceDefender and its components and from the description of how it works - controls the running apps including radio and data transfer, I always suspected it to be the root cause. After the other checks failed I tried removing all Juice Defender apps and since then c30hrs I have not experienced any loss of communication.
Thanks everyone for your help, and I hope this will be of use to anyone else suffering from loosing radio/ signal.

It has been a number of days now and I have not experienced the same issue, so my conclusion is that it is the JuiceDefender that caused the problem.
The down side now is that I get 7am to 4pm battery life as opposed to 7am to 7pm.... But atleast I can receive and make calls!
A note: The signal strength on the project image is not as strong as the WM6.5, but I am sure that is a known issue.

Hrm, didn't realize that app would help out that much. But, it makes sense if it's turning off all your radios lol.
Anyhoo, have you seen the kernel I posted from WisTilt2? It has full panel collapse, and battery life is astounding with it.
Code has yet to be committed, as he still has some work to do for the AUO panels (select RHOD100's basically) - so unless you have one of those you can reap the benefits of his new code .
(bzo got nearly 65 hrs with the radio on, sync off - 100% sleep.)
Looks interesting, but where do I download the latest version... I don't plan reading all the threads! And IF I installed would I loose all my settings and apps?
Update
It has been a while since I did all this tinkering, during which time there has been an update.
What I find I get is sometimes (c every couple of days) the meter says I have signal but nothing connects with a message "no network". Also, but far more frequent, as with today where it has occurred 3 times, I dial a number and nothing happens. It says ringing but there is no ring tone and it never seems to connect. I then shut the call down either by using the hang up button or the soft hang up key. The screen then changes to "Hanging Up" but again sits there indefinitely. The only solution id to do a restart.....
Any ideas?
PS: any news on when the bluetooth and camera will be working...?
I have found that any app that acts as a task killer of any sort (juice defender must in someway stop apps to save battery) can also kill your connection. I found this out while using xdandroid and it became immiediately clear when I stopped using the task killer my bars and data proved to be more consistant! Hope that helps.

Hi,
I have serious issues with my H7.
Since 1 month or so i can't take any phone calls, or do, i have network issues like "emergency call only" or "no services". I have to resend texts very often, and i have issues going on the internet with 4G or 3G.
I flashed several updates, updated with OTA from B130 to B330 and i have still the issues.
I have no emei issue, and the modem should be replace every time i flash a new update so i guess its not the issue here.
I have mainly this issue while travelling but even going to the toilet make it happen.
I realy need to take phone calls so i realy need help :/
Thanks !
Hi,
the same issue over here: my Honor 7 used to be ok with EMUI 3.1, build PLK-L01C432B180, Android 5.0.2.
After update to EMUI 4.0, build PLK-L01C432B371, Android 6.0 it started to lose connectivity, there were time periods having "emergency calls only" or "no service" displayed. During that time no calls can be received (it still persists).
I do not know the fix for this, but you can try to limit your network mode from "4G/3G/2G auto" down to "3G/2G auto" or "2G only" this way:
Settings, More, Mobile network, Preferred network type
During the time I was trying this, I didn't experience the above issue.
Hope this helps.

Did you:
1- backup all your stuff with native Huawei Backup, including screen layout?
2- factory reset
3- gone through setup wizard and check connectivity
4- restore backup
The most common cause after an update is not having a facotry reset (cleans old files). Please post your results.

Hi,
many thanks for your questions.
Well, maybe a bad (more time consuming approach) from my side, but no, before update start I only made an offline backup of my contacts, thinking the rest can be set up again, when needed.
After update there were some GPS related issues too, but at the end it has turned out, that it wasn't because of GPS but waze: it wasn't able to find GPS signal whilst maps.me has just woked fine. This has been "fixed" via waze uninstall/reinstall.
To come back to your question, yes, after a while I did a full factory reset hoping that it will solve the (maybe LTE related?) issues, but there was no change at the end.
Kind regards,
H.

I'm in same boat, but I have issues (ajnd have mentioned it several times) with 4G rather than calls. My phone also sits in 3G/2G mode and is fine, but worked perfectly well with Lollipop.
I would try swapping the sim slots, but can't as I need the memory card usage, and I'm not wanting to butcher a sim card to do that hack.

Rule out first any SIM reading issues.
As for the butcher, usually if you say your SIM was lost, they will provide you a new one free of charge. So you can do some experiments.
It´s actually very easy.
I tried to changed APN manually to rogers but still data does not work, only call and text works. Is there a solution to this? I believe i got Pro 2 (cn with global rom installed)
I had the same issue, below is the APN setting on Rogers website, I've found that if you make the following changes, it will connect to 4G data (until you restart your device)APN Type: replace "internet + mms" with "*"
MVNO: ROGERS
MVNO type: SPN
This will get you connected.
However, I ran into another problem after configuring the network this way. After restarting the device, the phone can no longer detect the SIM card, and has an error message prompting restart).
This is my problem after restarting:
Comparing with other phones, the auto detected APN Type is typically "default", but entering default will cause the connection issue right away. The "*" will allow you to run until device reboot.
I too would like help on how to resolve this. Seems more software than hardware problem since it only fails after boot.

I just tried your method looks like it works and as you said it doesn't work after reboot. However when I did "Network setting reset," I was able to connect to 4g again (but resets wifi passwords too). Hopefully there's a solution...
I noticed that this problem only happens if there is a SAVED wifi network WHEN the device BOOT up.
I did a factory reset, then enter the APN manually. I was able to connect to stable network.
I did a system restart, no issue. The phone reconnects to the network automatically after booting.
I connect to a wifi network. The phone still works fine.
I restart the device again, the problem comes back.
If I take out the SIM and only use the Wifi, the phone is also okay.
The only time when it doesn't work is when I have both, which is the normal use case.
Something is happening in the firmware between the wifi and the SIM during the boot sequence.
This problem exists on my Lenovo L70081, Legion Phone Duel 2 Pro, running OS 12.5.188 ST, updated using Rescue and Smart Assistant v5.8.0.25
Any help would be appreciated.

I restart the device again, the problem comes back.
If I take out the SIM and only use the Wifi, the phone is also okay.
The only time when it doesn't work is when I have both, which is the normal use case.
Something is happening in the firmware between the wifi and the SIM during the boot sequence.
This problem exists on my Lenovo L70081, Legion Phone Duel 2 Pro, running OS 12.5.188 ST, updated using Rescue and Smart Assistant v5.8.0.25
Any help would be appreciated.

Im on the same OS version 12.5.188ST, my phone connected to data absolutely fine with no problems but after every few hours stop making or receiving calls. I did the following and its fine for some time now but I'm not sure whether this will work with every phone but no harm in trying :
settings.....cellular network and sim.....5G mode. By default (at least in my phone) it is on NSA, I first switched to NSA+SA but to no avail, than I switched to SA and vola problem solved, all incoming outgoing calls working bang on but I think now my phone doesn't go on 5g which is still not good but at least making calls as normal. Now, as I said, this procedure might not work for everyone but try it, cheers.

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately setting the 5G setting didn’t help. I also tried disabling 5G but I still have the issue.
Was your OS able to read the APN from your SIM or did you have to enter the APN manually also?

I didn't mess about with apn, as I said in my earlier post I had no problems using data its always connected but I had problems with making and receiving calls, cheers
There's currently two ROM available on Rescue and Smart Assistant:
L70081_ROW_SECURE_USER_Q00017.0_R_ROW_12.5.188_ST_210819_qpst
L70081_EE_SECURE_USER_Q00017.0_R_ROW_12.5.137_ST_210710_sec_qpst
What's the difference between ROW and EE rom?
Which would work best in Canada and US?
is ROW only updated in Asia and Pacific?
i sort of had this same problem with Tmobile. it would only connect to 3g . if i connected to the 4g or 5g network i lost everything . i was able to fix it using my ROOTED phone and an app in the playstore called network guru. I used that to turn off majority of the network bands and only left the ones listed for the phone. My service was immediately fixed and havent had any trouble since

I know how ya feel, I pestered TMobile for 2 weeks and they were no help. They kept trying to push me off to Lenovo who was absolutely no help at all. Id go thru their website which connects you to Motorola. Then they would tell me they don't support the phone because it's Lenovo and give me a link to follow. Id follow that link which led me right back to Motorola lmfao.
After 4-5 times of going thru that nonsense I finally got someone who knew what they were doing. They told me because this phone was never released in the US I need to go thru their European server for assistance. Screw that, I did some more research and got the idea of trying this from some ancient post I found on xda lol.
It's actually very easy as long as your phone is rooted. download the app, click the 3 dots and go into force control. Then adjust the carrier bands so only the ones supported by the phone are selected. Then reboot your phone and it should kick over to a working signal . If not ya might have to monkey around in the service menu using the dial code *#*#4636#*#*
Here's a few screenshots to give ya an idea and a link to a website with all the bands listed. https://www.kimovil.com/en/frequency-checker/US/lenovo-legion-2-pro
