Hey people,
I always had an HTC with windows mobile.. i always had non-provider limited/customized devices.
Always had problems with the normal radio's that i didnt get much signal, always under the 3bars.
So i always looked on this forum what should be the best radiorom for the device to get better signal.
Now i have an HTC Hero with android, never flashed, never done anything with android eighter.
Its now 8 days ago that i bought myself this hero and always am under the 3 bars signal. some times i dont even get signal.......
Is here someone with the same problem?
I have Vodafone NL, they always change the radio-rom to the best fit when the phone is branded, but the hero doesnt even have an branded vodafone NL Hero!
So please help me with chosing the rom and point me to the best direction of an how to flash radio rom
I've looked around and didnt realy get an answer on this, so thats why im asking.
Thanks in Advance!

I'm not using the same provider as you. But I find:
63.18.55.06_6.35.05.31 saved a lot of battery compared with others
63.18.55.06IU_6.35.08.22 seemed to have better signal
63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26 the lastest one, seemed kept a good balance between signal and battery.
NOTICE: Signal bars do not mean everything, with 63.18.55.06IU_6.35.08.22, if I've got only one bar, that means I can hardly make a call, but 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26 will give me better performance even with only one bar.
That's all I've got. And am talking about gsm Network, not 3G.
Legend....
This topic is old... bu tmy post is a little off topic... so....
I have the same question regarding the legend.
I bought a stock standard HTC Legend, but Vodafone has bad reception, even no signal.
Tried 2 SIM cards from Vodafone, and one Telfort, the Telfort/KPN Sim card works fine.
So, i am also wondering if there is a special Radio ROM to use with the legend.
Hi, I have a problem with my Toshiba TG01 cellular signal, i think it could be antenna fault.
I have tried switching phone mode to GSM, it help't a little bit.
I have tried placing signal booster sticker, it help't a little bit.
But the cellular signal problem still remains.
Mostly cellular signal is bad indoors when i keep phone in my hands, and sometimes when phone is simply on the table and screen facing up. Also cellular signal is bad when i'm far away of cellular tower.
May be someone could help me to resolve this problem?

This ROM(TG01 Orange UK ROM + Manila Sense 2.5) have a problem is not working properly.
Try the last one from toshiba site finish 000176 or something like this. If you want can wait for the new rom who is on development at that moment. While call orange is still on guaranty.

My phone doesn't have warranty, i bought it from one guy...
I'm now using: Windows Mobile 6.5.5 - CE OS 5.2.23563(Build 5.2.23563) Radio Version 5005.1600.05 works good and smooth! I don't think that this problem is connected with ROM version.. i think that i have damaged antenna, maybe there is way to change antenna? And maybe someone could tell me where can i get one of those?

Sorry man I don't know what can you do with it. If is not working when you change ROM.
Normally the guaranty is still valid never mind if you bought your phone from other person.
Good luck man. Sorry about that.
Hi,
Since my HTC universal broke the LCD I start to find a replacement.
I found a friend who have a TG01 with no use... and he borrowed the device before I buy it.
I am running with the device since last Sunday, and I must say that the cons of this device (battery), for me it´s ok (4h30) of use (mix of calls, emails, etc).
I can not reach this time with my HTC
I had found some "problems" but already solved, using search in here.
But, on other side, I have some problems that I could not found the solution.
1. I can not put the device in 3G, only in 2G (I try changing in appropriate settings zones).
If I put in "automatic".... always in 2G and my home area have 3G.
So I decided to leave the device with GSM only.
2. Some cases, when I make/receive a phone call, the others persons inform me that
they can not hear me correctly (like I have poor signal, but the times I could check the
signal, it was full).
3. I use the TG01, with a bluetooh car kit (he did not access the contacts in the phone)
Works fine, but yesterday I found that the TG01 was "frozen" several times in the
day...???
In the evening I found that the freeze are related with bluetooh connections to the car
kit. Connecting/disconnecting.
The 3 problems that I have should be related to radio version???
I have:
software 5005.0000.0171 SP-00
radio version 5005.0000.0171
Thanks

Hi,
Yes your problems are from the radio version and from your carrier nerwork!
I have the same problem in Romania because i have more phones and also 3 carriers.
In one case, I use this phone with the Cosmote carrier from Romania it gave me the same problem as you have (the Cosmote carrier has two networks- one for GSM (2G) and one for 3G). Because the two internal network my phone see that i am in roming and give all that problems!
I installed the Feropont rom ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=969087 )and it works ok by now, Mirolg roms (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906969)was also ok for me untill a point (is with Sense)!
Another rom I tried is fxdjacentfxd (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=993343) (best free memory) unfortunatly it gave me an error because of the carrier and i changed.

Thanks very much!!!
for the links.....
I installed feropont rom !!!
Looks fine, but still have the problem of 3G...
Tomorow I will check the sound!!!
Thanks again!!
Perhaps I quit!!!
Hi,
Well, I try radio 1600 and now 300.
In this weekend, 1600 still have bad quality sound (people can not hear me very well).
In this morning (early) I flash again the same rom with radio changed for 300, but still haven´t 3G (for my experience I think I will have sound problem).
Today before flashing I put another SIM card (vodafone) and ... I have 3G, after changing the settings.
I leave the settings in HSPAD, put my TMN sim card ..... and no signal!!! (like usual).
My SIM card what is giving me "problems" had +- 4 months.
(Had 3G in the HTC Universal, with same card).
So, my problems could be in the SIM card (I think not)? what did you say?
After flash and reflash and because I use TG01 for professional use....
Pherhaps I quit!!
Thanks to everyone!!!

Yes, my SIM have a problem, he can not log 3G in others phones!
I am waiting news from the operator!
But, with my Wife SIM, the TG still can not connect to 3G

I told you!
The problem consist in the equipment carrier use! Vodafone use Ericsson devices and Orange use Alcatel stuff, but other carrier could use other equipment and from here comes the errors.
I don't think that the error comes from your SIM card !
I think the error come from the radio in your phone witch is not adequate with the carrier equipment. So my advice is keep looking for another radio! Try 1700!

Your Right Rila, the problem could also be in the TG01.
But my SIM card, in my wife phone or in another phone with 3G could not "enter" in 3G.
(I did not use 3G in my HTC universal, the sound also wasn´t good, but I always think it was for my blue tooth car kit or bad signal reception)
The same with my old Qtek S200(who don´t have 3G only GSM)
The sim had 4 months old.
For future "helps" I try 1600;300 and now 321.
I am waiting news from the operator.
First I must have a SIM that in other phones, work in 3G, after that, let´s test in TG01
I will post the news
(I must admitted I star to get TG01 addicted )
Perhaps I do not quit!!!
Ok!
In my break launch, I go to a store from my carrier!
They did found one problem, in my "service"!
After 30 minutes they call me and ask to reset the device ( they know it was a Windows mobile phone).
After reset, I select hspda settings and I have now 3G.
I put again the Tg on GSM only ( for saving battery).
In +- 10 calls no one has inform me they can not hear me well.
It´s soon too say that the problem it´s SOLVED but it´s looking good
Another think that I noted is that I have 1H55 m with 70% remaining battery.
Hi everyone!!
Some time ago there was a discussion about data only sim cards (in Japan). Basically data only SIM doesn't connect to network like normal voice sim so the os boosts radio signal in search for that (non existing) signal. Then you have a huge battery drain and phone gets hotter.
Apparently the fix was some docomo sim patcher module for xposed. The module is removed if you search in xposed but it can be found online. In all discussion I dont see nobody mentioning kitkat, only ics and jb. I saw somewhere that this problem is supposed to be solved in kitkat but its not. In kit kat there is signal bars but cell standby is high and battery drain is huge. Have in mind that this happens exactly the same on various devices ( Im now on OnePlus one).
I installed the module, and it solved the cell standby (it used to be 100% and now is much less) but time on says as long as the actual time on of the device and although battery life is better it still drinks too much battery no matter if on LTE or 3G. Mostly i notice that battery drain is way too huge when cell phone is in stand by.
Did anyone finally got around this problem? Is there some up to date fix? All I found is very outdated, and no clear solution either.
Thanks
I guess the solution is to pay a little bit extra for sms function, that way phone should connect normally to network and I think there shouldn't be no problem. Somebody please confirm if you tested. Thank you.
So turns out that patch did fix part of the problem, but now here is another problem. Patch is a xposed module and as you all know ,xposed doesnt work in Lollipop.
What is the possible workaroud?
Is there any way to change the code so that phone doesnt look for network when sim is inserted?
I get signal bars but it says no service and in battery settings network signal is red (as if signal is terrible all the time while Im actually missing only 1 bar). When I set apn lte sign appears and internet works (along with huge battery drain)
I am currently in Japan and having the same problem on my Nexus 5 and Android 5.0.1. Is anyone having a solution by now?
Thanks, would help a lot if my phone isn´t discharged after half of the day...
Well, nexus 5 and battery are not best friends to begin with. I am also on Nexus 5 currently. The best bet is to activate sms option which is only 100yen more monthly, and that way phone should register to network probably. Only problem is you have to buy sim again (at least in my case with biglobe).
You can also toggle airplane mode every time you dont use internet ,thats what Im doing right now,although wont save that much.
Interesting thing is that I didnt have that problem with HTC's 4.1.2 jelly bean..
SMS chip doesn't help

I have a Nexus 4 (Android 5.0.1) and I bought one chip in BIC Camera with Line support, which means I can receive SMS (no voice). My battery is draining if the mobile network is on. The best thing I can do for now is, like you said, toggle airplane mode when I have a WiFi connection available and carry a power bank if I need to use 3G...
I have a Nexus 6P on Android 6.0.1 and use a data-only SIM card on Docomo's network in Japan (purchased from BIC camera). This issue has not been solved.
Some have claimed that a previous Android update from 4.x has solved the issue, but this is not the case. I've used multiple Android devices in Japan over the past 2 years with these "MVNO" SIM cards and every single one has the issue of battery drain. The iPhone does not have this problem.
Has anyone solved this? There was an Xposed Module fix for this, but that was ages ago and I presume it does not apply to Android 6.x.

Sorry, I've left Japan a year ago and don't have Nexus anymore too, so can't help much..
Any progress on this?
Has it been fixed in Nougat?
I hope so. Going to Japan again later this year. Was a pain on my LG G4 last year. Got myself a Nexus 6P now with Android 7.1.1.
Pure Nexus ROM 7.1.2, same battery drain...
I have 0sim, which is free up to 500MB.
I can't add SMS option, because it will cost money.
Please, anyone, post some solution on Nougat for data only SIM.
My phone is rooted, but still no Xposed for Nougat. If it was some tool...
Hello
I recently purchased this phone for a family member. We set it up yesterday, and found that the sim card from their old phone that we've inserted isn't capable of allowing the phone to make/receive texts/calls. It just says something along the lines of "Can't connect to mobile network", despite showing signal bars. When I checked the connectivity bands against the mobile network's, it appeared that the phone should at least support 2G & 3G. I'm in the UK and haven't modified the ROM.
Has anyone had this issue before, and does anyone know of a fix? I've heard that some of the newer official ROMs are better for connectivity, but I don't want to flash the phone and void its warranty if the fault lies with the phone.
Many thanks
Luke
Heyyo, hmm can you please provide more information?
Link to the exact product purchased
What country and network is being used?
Does your device say x820, x821, x822 or x829 on the back of it? If not does it say what it is in the settings > about phone menu?
Can you please specify which version of EUI ROM it is running? Should be in Settings > About Phone.
As for upgrading EUI ROM versions? That will not void warranty as long as you don't have the x829 with EUI ROM 5.8.016s.... which is what I had and x829 with 5.8.016s is garbage. So many darn problems with it and has software updates disabled even via recovery update.zip... I didn't stay on it long since LineageOS 13.0 at the time officially came to the x2 heh

This is where I ordered it from: LeTV LeEco Le Max 2 X820 5.7 inch 4GB RAM 32GB ROM Snapdragon 820 Quad core 4G Smartphone
I live in the UK and the phone's using a Tesco Mobile SIM
The device is the X820
I don't have the phone with me right now, but I believe the EUI is 18s
I wasn't aware upgrading the ROM version didn't affect the warranty, that's nice to know
Hallo,
I believe I might have the same problem with the mobile network. In my case, I am quite certain that the battery is the problem. I got the phone some weeks ago, but I assume it was laying around for quite some time, which might be not very beneficial for the battery? Anyway, the voltage should be 4.4 V after loading and as long as the voltage stays above about 4 V, I have good data connection. But after a while, the voltage drops below 4 V and I do not have any connection anymore, despite showing all signal bars! Is it possible, that you see a similar behavior with your phone? If you load it on a charger, does your data work?

I personally do not experience this but I'm 100% sure that the voltage from the battery should stay around 4V. If this happens try turning on the battery saver and dimmer your screen so you can spread the battery load. Maybe it will work idk.

You are probably right in saying that the voltage should stay around 4 V. This is probably the case for new or at least well aged batteries. However, that seems not to be the case of my battery. According to the App that reads out the voltage, it sometimes drops to values as low as 3.6 V. Sometimes, the voltage recovers a bit, but typically, not enough to enable data connection, for which I believe to need at least around 4 V to work (reliably!).

I purchased a X820 from China (TomTop.com) and the junk had an EXTREMELY LOW signal.I NEVER received network signal at home.I have to go near a cell tower to get signal,as soon i drive away from the tower (around 5 blocks)i lost signal and could not make or receive calls..Remember that the company LeEco went out of business and the phones we buy today are NOT made by LeEco but are made by many private factories in China and in reality are cheap clones.I send the junk back and purchased a X829.Now i have very good signal and connection never dropsJust return your phone is defective..Here is a video i had to send to tomtop.com in order to get a refund.

I have exactly the same problem when the phone's battery level goes around 70% (~4v).
i.e. when battery drops below 70%, the network signal shows LTE with around 3 bars but there's no network connectivity and can't make/receive phone call. But as soon as I plug in the charger, everything works perfectly! This happens on all ROMs.
I wish there is a solution for this.
same problem for me .....
Today ,
NO WAY to have working Network mobile on a Leeco LE 2 x526 with last stock rom 28s installed on it. NOW i can call on 3G but no voice ,,,,, but i can't be called. .....after restart with / without APN / searchable 3G/4G network Digi.Mobile ...signal is lost and is cost me allot of time and energy . i even lost any hope .....(coul be a hardware problem ?)

I believe your phone is a X829. Someone installed the X820 firmware to sell it easier. It doesn't have Band 20 for 4G. Tesco mobile is working on O2 network and they're using Band 20 for 4G network. Despite that it should work on 3G. In my opinion you should install a custom ROM and check things there...

Ended up just being too frustrating, so we returned it for a refund & bought a different phone instead...
It's a shame, aside from that one issue it seemed to be a great phone, especially for the price
