Running MR2 Das BAMF Gingerstripped with Imo's GB Sense 3.4.0 kernel. All is running perfectly well (aside from slightly odd battery behavior) except for one thing. MMS doesn't work. Apparently I'm not alone many others are reporting the issue in mostly all GB roms and I was just wondering has a solution been posted yet?
i have the same rom, radio, and kernel and no go on the mms receiving or sending; i really like the gingerstripped, but currently sitting in my clockwork directroy as nandroid backup until the MMS can be worked out.
i searched around and havent found an answer for this. Can anyone chime in on a possible fix?
I noticed just yesterday that my mms sending and recievng is not working . Im using bamf 1.8.6 with the mr2 radio . I didnt have these problems until yesterday . I swiitched back to the mr1 and my 1.8 backup and still no go .
Maybe something to do with the fact it is stripped, maybe something was accidentally removed? BAMF 3 rc4 here, mr2.5, imo 3.4.0 and MMS is working fine here, sending and receiving.

You're saying you are now back on the MR1 radio and running Froyo and still you can't send/receive MMS? That is some bad juju right there.
Hey g00s3y, you say MMS works for you on BAMF 3.0 RC4. My question to you is, did you flash the radio after you flashed the ROM? I flashed Radio -> Rom. Maybe flashing the radio over the rom will help? I am willing to try it but I just want to make sure flashing the radio won't affect my data/rom right?

As far as I know, it shouldn't matter which one you flash first. I have went back and forth from froyo/GB quite a bit in the past, and just flashed the radio whenever I got around to it. But most of the time I did install the radio in hboot first, reboot into the phone, then reboot into recovery and wipe/install the rom.
MMS works fine on BAMF 3.0 RC4.
MMS on Das Bamf 3.0 Rc4 with the MR2 radio works for me.
EDIT: I flashed MR2, then Das Bamf 3.0 RC4
Update: I flashed to CM7.1 RC1.2 and I can now send/receive MMS however...
... I gave up GPS as a trade off Looks like you really can't have your cake and eat it too.
BAMF works fine for MMS.

BAMF Sense works. Gingerstripped was having serious issues sending and receiving MMS however, and I am not alone. Many people in the Gingerstripped thread are reporting the same problem, and since there hasn't been an update to it in awhile it's safe to say it still has the same problem.
I loved Gingerstripped, and the work you guys are doing with BAMF is GREAT! Keep it up!
I was having trouble sending and receiving MMS for the last month. Not sure if it started with stripped FROYO 1.7 or 1.8, but it carried onto gingerstripped. I love this rom, but had to switch do to charging issues, which is supposedly worked out with a lean kernel. I dunno, I never tried it. I couldn't deal with the charging thing.
I'm CM7ing it right now, and have not tried the GPS, but am having trouble with notification issues.

Give GPS a shot and see if it works. I mean true GPS, not network based. I don't get a lock at all. Literally sat there for a good while trying to find location and nothing. Charging issues were fixed indeed by Imoseyon's latest kernels.
As for notification issues, what exactly is the problem? I am using Handcent and my notifications for texts are fine. Haven't had any missed calls or emails yet so dunno about those.

has anyone had this issue. when i make or receive a call that error comes up. It doesn't happen for the first couple of calls, but then every call thereafter it does.
It started when i flashed lgs 1.1 and hasn't stopped. I've restored backups, ive wiped and started fresh.
I tried radio mr2 mr2.5, with multiple roms: lgs 1.1, bamf. i tried going back to a lts rom. I'm currently on bamf sense 3.0 rc 2.
im almost to the point where i smash the phone off a wall and just buy a new one, but i'd rather not.
any help would be appreciated.
ok, well i flashed my original stock rooted rom, and then the original radio and so far so good.
maybe down the line (moving to gb) i flashed the radio/rom in the wrong order.

I am currently running the Evil Fascinate 3.6 Rom with the OTB Reloaded 1.6 Kernel and the official ED04 Radio. Definitley like this setup but was wondering if there is anything else i should try? Haven't really done anything as far as overclocking but i would like to speed up my phone a bit but not too much were it kills my battery. and would like to get the best possible signal as far as the radio goes. The radio I'm using i will sometimes have a missed call or lose satellite location within the GPS. Just looking for any setup recommendations that someone else might be using that is getting a great result in every category. Any theme recommendations would be appreciated as well. I don't have a theme flashed yet with the EF 3.6 because I like the black theme.
I'm running ComRom 2.1 over ED01 with imnuts' PBJ -50 voodoo kernel. My fascinate doesn't take kindly to overclocking so PBJ is perfect. Phone's pretty snappy and gets good battery life (24+ hours on a full charge with moderate use), and I have yet to miss a call. Signal is decent like always and I usually get a pretty quick lock with gps.

I use Jt1134's CM7 (0704 build) with Nemesis2all's OTB for MIUI/CM7 (0704 build)
I have it OCed to 1.4 GHz running stable. (Battery life is excellent too. . .*)
I use the ED01 radio. It seems very stable and the signal is great.
*Still needs calibrated though. . . will update when done.
Question about CM7?
Ok thanks for the info. Quick ?, are you running into any problems with the CM7 rom? Heard some people had issues with MMS and some other things?

MMS is not functional in CM7. At all. Since I rarely (if ever) need or use MMS, I don't mind.
Keep in mind CM7 is still in an alpha state. So it has a couple minor issues (LED cannot be used as a torch, there is a little bit of lag in some of the sensors, etc.) But it is the most functional "alpha" I have seen.
Running EC09 radio. No complaints here.
Im running the same ROM/kernel ED04 radio setup and am getting SOD frequently. You having that problem?

never heard of that happening with ComRom, I suspect ED04 may have something to do with it.. I don't really know what to do about that except maybe a full data/cache wipe and reflash of ComRom or changing your radio to ED01 or maybe even EB01, never had a problem with those

I just installed BAMF 1.8.6 on my thunderbolt. Before doing so I cleared all data / cache / dalvik as instructed. Everything seems to work great now that I have the new rom running but I cannot access any wireless networks make calls access internet or text. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I used this rom:

Obviously I'm new to this so I didn't add any new radios or anything to that extent. I assume that is the issue but I'd rather not play around with things I'm not familiar with. If you can point me in the right direction if it is a radio and to which radio I should upgrade to I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!

You need either the MR2 , MR2.5 or the new radio that dropped today. The MR2 is a good stable radio. All of these radios will work on the newer froyo builds like bamf 1.8.6 or any gingerbread rom. There are a couple of threads for these radios in TB development.
Good luck!

I've been using this for the past
couple days w/ the leaked mr2 radio
and it has been pretty good.
I got an extra 1hr of uptime and 30mins
of awake time. (15hrsUp/5hrsAwake)
Last night I flashed the official MR2
radio and all is well. I think the reason
you aren't getting any service is because
either you flashed your radio wrong or
you never did it.
Here's the link to the thread w/
just the new official mr2 radio that i used

Has anyone had any issues with OTA MR2 that was released this week with Das Bamf 2.1?
Did you try it yet, if yes what probs did you have, if not why are you expecting somebody else to test it for you?

I'm sure he doesn't expect someone to test it for him but he is like me and wants to try it but would rather wait because we know other people are less patient than us and will flash something the second it comes out not caring about spending time "testing" it out and then 20 minutes to restore if things go bad. If I get some free time before I hear if its stable or not I'll try it but I imagine other people have already tested it and their input would be greatly appreciated to save others time and a headache.
I haven't tried it but it should work great. I know it works on Das BAMF 1.8.6 and 3.0, no reason it shouldn't on 2.1. Make a backup, wipe and flash away.

I did try it and it seems to be working, yet i get strange signal, it appears to be worse in signal strength, but more stable since i haven't had restarts. and the software info screen does not show Kernel section... so i'm curious if i should reinstall 2.1 again or this OTA Radio does not support Kernal that's with 2.1
I spent a good chunk of my Sunday doing my initial root, and making sense of the various classes of ROMs and radios.
I finally got BAMF 1.8.6 with the newest OTA radios from 7/8. Running that, with Launcherpro and tweaking power use settings seems to be faster and is very clean. So happy to have the VZW bloatware off, as well.
Though I know it is not OPs exact question, the 1.8.6 combo works well. Voice quality to my GF's iPhone on AT&T (two huge variables) is more digitized than normal, but I don't know what to attribute that to.
So I am a proud owner of the Thunderbolt now and I am loving this phone a lot. I’ve moved over from the Sprint EVO. I was rooted since day 1 with that phone. I ran CM7… and while my overall phone and speed test were faster than the stock phones in the house… I still seemed to have constant issues… be it from the phone itself or the network.
Of course I can’t leave well enough alone with this phone. I wanted to put Gingerbread on it (it still has 2.2 WTF?!) and I wanted to put Sense 2.1/3.0 on it. So I successfully rooted (WOW that was easy) and installed clockwork recovery. I decided on SHIFTS3NS3 V1.4F as it seems to have exactly what I want (I kind of don’t want to go back to CM7, everyone claims they have no signal issues but I am sure they do, especially when my Sense loaded Evo could get 4G where CM7 could/would not).
So BEFORE I rooted or did anything, I did several speed test throughout my home and work. Smooth scaling and great speeds. After rooting and installing Shifts3ns3, I started running test. My speeds dropped… and now I was seeing “skipping” with the speed test (gets to a point, stops, drops, stutters going back up, drops again, etc). So I get to work this morning and the speed test is doing the same here. I did a nandroid backup of my stock set up last night before I installed the new ROM… restored it this morning… and ran the test at work again… lo and behold I am getting faster speeds and no stuttering.
So perhaps a radio issue? I noticed there are Froyo radios and GB radios (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048128)... When installing the GB ROM does it update the radios? Was I running Froyo radios on a GB rom and is that bad? Should I try upgrading to the latest GB radios and run test again? Does any of this Rom switching/radio switching affect the simultaneous voice and data ability (that’s actually huge for me and the main reason I got this phone)?
I appreciate any help. I’ve been a XDA board reader with EVO since 11-2010… so while everything is familiar to me… this all seems different with the Thunderbolt.
First off I would upgrade to the latest radio. Although these are *beta* radios, they work much better than the stock radios.
Second, after installing the latest radio try, Bamf 2.4.1. Just like you I like staying close to stock, but like extra elements with my ROM. To me Gingeritis is just too far from stock, plus the Carousel home screen is a pain in the ass. Bamf 2.4.1 is just stock with sense 3.0 weather and lockscreen, and without the location icon in the status bar.
Also, my speedtest on Bamf 2.4.1 was a straight shot. No drop offs what so ever.
And, of course this is all just my opinion but I strongly believe that Bamf 2.4.1 is what you want.

Quick question, since I am on page 10 and not seeing this answer... what is the difference between ADR and non ADR? He mentioned on page one that its "Adrynalyne. Its what I made according to my own wants"... but I am not sure what that means LOL. Only reason I am concerned is that there still seems to be a sense 3.0 lock screen bug that someone said is a known bug and to flash the non ADR version.

The ADR version uses elements of sense 3.0 while the normal version is basically stock. You want the adr version.

i came from the evo too so welcome. IMO the reason people are having soo many data issues is not from the radios but from the 2.3.5 build that was meant for the nexus s phone. 2.3.4 doesn't have those kinds of problems. just my 2 cents!

Low volume in call? Geeze... I wish I could turn it down! Gingeritis3D is blaring loud. I never use it more than half way up.
Thanks everyone for the responses!
I guess I am just scared to do anything to mess up my phone. I trouble shot and tinkered with the Evo so much so often.
Right now the phone works. And works great. I just wanna help the battery life some... and remove Verizons bloatware.
It seems the Thunderbolt handles radios differently depending on the build? With the Evo I would just flash a radio and I could bounce around from sense to AOSP, froyo to GB, and it wouldnt matter. The thunderbolt has MR2 radios... Froyo radios... GB radios. So my last question here is... right now I am on stock. If I go to a GB based rom, do I flash the radio first? And if I go back to the stock rom, do I flash the MR2 radios first (my phone updated to 1.70.605.0 while it was being set up in the store) then flash back to stock? Basically do the radios persist throughout the builds and I flash them according to what ROM I am using?
Thanks again.

The latest radio's available will work with all ROM's out right now (Including the latest Froyo ROM's).
If I remember correctly you should be okay to just flash the ROM (No need to flash the new radio as MR2 works with both GB and Froyo).
The Radio's persist through everything except a RUU or PG05IMG.zip flash (Depending on what you are flashing of course).

OK so it IS like the Evo then. The radio thread isnt stating that they are Froyo/GB radios... but where the radios got pulled FROM. I was totally reading it wrong.
Thank you for the clarification!
