I did a quick search and didn't find anything on this.
Anytime I normally lose radio signal (elevator, etc), my radio no longer goes into search mode (animated dots) an an attempt to re-establish connectivity, it immediately goes into a stop state (the regular signal antenna icon with an exclamation point). Even after I re-enter an area that has signal, it will not re-establish connectivity in this state. After a period of time, I get the error:
"Phone - There is a problem connecting to the GPRS service in your registered home network."
The only way to fix this is to toggle in and out of flight mode, or softboot.
I didn't have this issue until I SIM/SCID'd unlocked and upgraded my Tytn to the 1.35 ROM (1.18 radio/1.09 BL). In an attempt to fix it, I downgraded the bootloader to 1.04 and then downgraded the radio to 1.16. Although the downgrades were successful, it did not fix the radio problem.
Anyone have suggestions?

Use an earlier radio version like 1.13 or 1.11. I used to have this problem with 1.16 as well.

Observing a peculiar problem with (probably) Radio Stack.
ROM Version 3.17.03 (Jeff's ROMKitchen) or 3.16.52 ENG (Qtek Upgrade) or 3.14 (Original Qtek when I bought it)
Radio Version 3.23.01 (Qtek)
Problems: XDA suddenly stops responding to all the phone applications. No calls, no sms, no gprs connection. Backlight flickers, or shut off completely. Other applications work but infinitely slowly.
Bootloader observations: upon entering into the bootloader (ver 5.15), it takes long time to settle and I get a message GSM Failure instead of GSM OK. If I try to switch band, or reset GSM, I get the same message after a long wait.
Everything gets restored perfectly well after hard reset.
What could be the possible problem?
Ever since I upgraded to the new cingular rom and 1.27 radio, I've had great success with the phone, with a few issues.
1) The radio sometimes doesn't respond to 'hang-up'... I've once had to reset the phone to actually disconnect the call!
2) My SD Card will sometimes show no content. When I go to run a program that is installed to the card, it will not run and I get a 'file may not be signed' error. When I load up a file manager, it shows the directory structure of the card, but, not the files. Removing and re-inserting the card fixes everything and I can go on my merry way. Very annoying.
3) The phone will often not turn itself off. When I set the backlight timeout for 1min, and the power-off to 2mins (battery), I will get the backlight to turn off, but the phone itself doesn't turn off... Even stranger, if the device is doing activesync and I manually push the 'power' button, the device will *turn itself back on* within about 1 second.
Also, I had purchased "Ultimate Theft Alert", and for some strange reason it's decided that I'm using a different phone and runs only in non-registered mode. I'm guessing the change of radio threw off the serial # check. Just a warning for those who have the UTAv3.... Upgrading the radio *will* cause you to need to get a new activation code.
Otherwise, very happy with the new radio, and OS. On another note, the new radio shows 'E' for Edge correctly now (instead of a 'G'). I haven't gone to a 3G area yet to know how to works, but, the radio was upgraded after the OS, and with the old radio, I'd get the 'G', as soon as the new radio was installed, I got an 'E'. So, the radio has something to do with the G, E and 3G graphics.

I use UTAv3 and I've changed the radio version a several times without problems....
I have upgraded to the cingular rom and it seem to reformat my sd card, I tried tor recover it.
I have now gone back to the HTC Test rom to see if I get the same issues
Hi
Ive been lurking for a while, about time to have my say! Upgraded to the test rom a couple of days ago and all seems fine. I have experienced the same behavior from my memory card too (1gb sandisk) but a soft reset sorts it. I havent noticed many other differences but everything runs fine, have yet to get things working with my Parrot in car handsfree and gps receiver.
Upgraded last night to the 1.27 radio, so far so good - I am now getting an "H" for hsdpa which is cool. Signal seems about the same as previous (1.18), waiting to see about battery life.
Thanks to all the "experts" that gave me the confidence to do the upgrade via the 1.01 bootloader and saved me from ending up with my radio rom stuck with 1.08!
I just love playing with this thing!
I've got this issue that's driving me mad.
I use the WiFi option heavily at home and since upgrading to WM6 I seem to find that WiFi dismissal is not being retained.
Every time I switch on wireless the next doors router pops up as a new network detected. Each time I tell it to "don't show this message again" but it takes no notice.
I thought it might be the ROM but I have tried a few with the same result.
If anyone knows a way to get it to retain the dismissal or know a way to set the default profile it would be most appreciated.
At the moment I'm using PDAVIET transformer 1.1.
Thanks in advance.
TB.
After it tells you that it detected next door's router, press the power button twice quickly.

I have just tried that and it does nothing.
Even if I dismiss the detected Wifi network is still comes back. Press power twice quickly it then re-appears.
Any other suggestions.
the same problem... wifi don't establish wireless connection
Hi, i have the same problem, i wish to know if there's any way to debug what's happening... i tried without mac filtering, open/open, and open/wep... but i cant connect to my home router thru my kaiser (tytn ii).
After trying a few WM6 all with these kinds of issues I went back to official WM5

Hi Friends,
I am new to rezound community, I just bought a used Rezound. My primary phone till now is myTouch 4G Slide rooted, unlocked running custom roms.
Three things i find amazing with Rezound is its Screen, beats audio which works also with my Klipsch on stock music player & the community support it gets (So many roms and mods) :good:
Am still a noob for rezound and trying to learn things as fast as i can so please help me if you are aware about any of the problems and its solutions.
I am having some issues with the phone.
First info about my Phone:
I am currently Fully stock, unrooted, locked bootloader.

Software No: 4.03.605.2 710RD
kernel version: 3.0.16-g480e1b0
Android : 4.0.3
Sense: 3.6
When i got the phone it was on HTC screen bootloop, with stock HBOOT-2.10.0000 & RADIO-0.95.00.1017_2r/0.95.00.1013r & locked bootloader.
I updated the phone with RUU 4.03.605.2 using PH98IMG.zip from android police.
I will always use it in GSM network only and preferably Stock rom (With root) for next couple of weeks. Phone will be used in India on 900mhz & 1800mhz bands & 2100mhz for UMTS & 3g.
Here are the issues i am facing:-
1) Even after i select GSM mode or Global Mode it doesn't register on network automatically. I have to manually press "Select Network Automatically" & reboot every-time for it to register network. Sometimes it registers on network only in GSM mode and sometimes only on Global mode. Solutions?
2) Data (3g) Sometimes works sometimes doesnt work. Normally in all phones APN settings of the network provider are added and selected by default when the sim is inserted. But here i have to manually save APN settings everytime. Why doesn't it take automatically from sim or network?
3) Stock Wifi Hotspot doesn't work, Error says "You need a verizon sim for this service". Any way to make the stock wifi hotspot functionality to work without verizon simcard or any third party apps?
4) There is an annoying always on lockscreen notification saying "This Sim card is from an unknown source". Any way to remove it ?
5) The phone sometimes lags a lot or doesnt respond or just turn of abruptly even when no apps are running in background. Only fix is the battery pull reset. Any better solution ? Will removing Verizon crapware improve anything ?
6) Yest nite before going to bed i switched off the phone. In the morning when i tried to turn it on, it wouldn't turn on. So i thought may be i would have forgotten to turn it off & plugged in the charger to see if the battery was empty, the phone wudn't charge nor the charging notification light turned on. So i again did a battery pull reset and the phone turned on, with 80% battery remaining. It started with the phone setup screen. I just don't know what happened, any ideas or solutions ?
7) I am unable to make or receive calls in global mode, It gives an error "The process com.android.phone has stopped", loses network & reboots with just 1-2 network bars after reboot. USSD code from dialer runs without issues. (BTW i can receive & make calls in GSM/UMTS mode) Its confusing that it doesnt work in global mode but works in GSM/UMTS mode.
If there are other known issues in gsm /global mode in stock rom which i am unaware of please suggest solutions for that as well.
Hope I didn't repeat questions for any problems already solved, If so please point me to the right thread of the solutions.
Thanks a lot guys.
You can try to root and install custom rom or stock rom and see if it fixes it..

1) Did you try the *#*#4636#*#* menu to change modes? Also, a reboot is commonly required when changing these settings, Global Mode enables all radios (LTE/CDMA/GSM/HSPA) with a Verizon SIM, GSM only enables GSM & HSPA on any SIM, GSM is probably the one you need.
2) The Rezound requires you to manually input APN information, sorry, just the way it is. Also, the 3G (HSPA/UMTS) radios in the Rezound are fairly weak, even standing right next to a tower you sometimes will not get 3G, but Edge is very reliable.
3) That is Verizon locked service, you would have to root and use a 3rd party tool, or a custom ROM.
4) Not in a stock ROM, the stock ROM is intended for Verizon users only so any other SIM will show that, an custom ROM can correct this.
5a) This is unusual actually, the stock ROM is fairly stable, although the underlying VZW services not being able to connect could cause issues.
5b) Not likely, you could remove the apps, but the underlying services will still be there. A custom ROM may be able to correct this.
6) Try disabling "Fastboot" in the Security settings menu. This is not adb fastboot, it is an HTC mode where shutting down/rebooting only does a partial shutdown to improve boot times. You will know you found the right option when you see something like "Enabling this option may interfere with the use of some market applications" and it is enabled by default.
7) Again, this is a Verizon phone... to Verizon a "Global Mode" phone will have it's SIM and roam onto it's partners networks, therefore it really kind of needs a Verizon SIM to work properly in Global mode. You want the phone in GSM mode, not Global mode.
Some final thoughts... You may want to consider an unlocking the bootloader, installing custom recovery, and an 3rd party GSM capable ROM, there are several possibilities in the various development areas here, this will probably correct several of the issues you are having. Most ROMs over the last year or so have some support for GSM, just read the threads on the ROMs for more information.
To be honest, the Rezound is not a great GSM phone by any means... but depending on your needs it might work with some modifications.
Hello,
I bought the P9000 US Edition recently, which runs the Elephone_P9000_M_20161107 ROM. After getting it, I didn't even start it up but immediately updated to the latest LinageOS with Android 6, but the SIM card wasn't detected then.
I flashed the latest official ROM 20170110, not realizing this isn't meant for the US Edition before seeing that the IMEI number was wiped, causing the SIM card not being recognized. Thankfully, I have a full backup of the original state at hand, so I could restore nvram easily and the mobile connection started working.
However, after that was solved, I encountered problems with the mobile connection:
Searching networks sometimes takes a long time, resulting in no connection at all in the meantime.
When I'm connected to 3G networks, it shows that it has a data connection (small 3G logo on the signal indicator), but I can neither make or receive calls, send SMS or use the data connection as long as it doesn't switch to 2G or 4G
The data connection problem sometime manifests with 2G and 4G, too: the small logo shows but no data comes through.
"Phone idle" is by far the largest battery consumer in the battery stats (not even the screen outweighs it at any time)
I just found out by trying that enabling and disabling airplane mode sometimes solves the problem, maybe because it results in a reset of the modem. I contacted Elephone support and they said that I had to reflash the original stock ROM for the US edition and if this didn't help, I had to send it in for repair, because flashing a wrong ROM corrupted the modem data.
After that didn't work, I even reflashed my backup, selecting each and every partition (except for the last two partition, flashinfo and sgpt[/] or something like that, for which I didn't take a backup). This seemed to alleviate the problem a bit, but not completely.
TL;DR: When the phone has a 3G connection, neither calls, SMS nor data work. Sometimes this also happens in 2G or 4G. Support says I corrupted modem data when flashing a non-US version ROM. I restored a full backup of the original state but it didn't change much.
Any suggestions on how I could solve the problem?
Are you in the USA?
I'm in Canada and using the EU version of the phone.
A solution I have found is to change the bands. This can be done by:
1) Press on the dial pad *#*#4636#*#* this will enable engineering settings.
2) In the top right press the '3 dots'
3) Press 'phone information'
4) Press 'select radio band'
5) Then choose a band based on your location or play with them see which works best exit and try that.
6) Redo the steps to change again should you need to. I typically play around with the bands to find the one that works best.
7) If this doesn't work maybe check your network APN settings? Mine are automatically filled for Bell and Rogers in Canada. When I travel in the EU it generally auto-fills as well using the network 3.
An error that occurs when I attempt to enter the 'select radio band' under 'phone information' is the error code "com.android.phone has stopped" with the toggle for 'Open App Again'. A solution I found to that problem is to soft reset the phone.
Another error I frequently encounter is "Process com.android.phone isn't responding"
Not really practical given the average user wants a device that "just works".
