Currently I am running Miui 9/16 with the latest Glitch V12 beta kernel and the EC09 radio. For the last 3 or 4 builds of Miui and the latest build of CM7 my Wifi and 3G connections constantly drop. It usually requires a reboot or if i'm lucky placing the phone in airplane mode for a little might make 3G come back on. I've flashed back to stock twice and before I flash anything I wipe Data, cache, and dalvik at least 3 times. This is really rendering the AOSP builds unusable but I love them when they do work. Is anyone else having these issues with MIUI/CM7?
Thats been a common problem off and on with those roms...wich is why I stick with the ol trusty powerwashed 1.2 ed05, it just plain works.

Last time I messed with ED05 my SD card got fried. Is that still a common problem?

Miui, cm7, vgb were the roms frying sd cards. It ended up being a kernal issue. Never herd of any froyo rom eating a sd card. Not saying it didnt happen, but you would be one of the very few that happened too.

So I noticed that my 3G wasn't connecting all day on my fascinate. I was running Evil Fascinate 3.3.2 with the nemesis ED01 kernel and the ED01 modem. So I flashed the EC01 modem. No 3G. So I completely wipe everything after a nandroid backup and installed stock DL09. Bam, 3G is back. I allow it to update itself to Froyo OTA. 3G working great. I wipe the phone and install the new Community Rom from scratch. 3G is gone again. I wipe the phone and I flash EF 3.4. 3G still gone.
So I'm back on stock Froyo. I'll do more testing later to see if rooting makes 3G go away again, but at this time I'm suitably freaked out.

Looks like smilepak had the same issue. see here also
Just a suggestion for when I get random bugs that others don't seem to get. I re-download the file i tried to flash, from a different link if i can get it. A lot of times it's a bad download
I think the piece of code in the unknown tethering module is phone home code. I think it's a combination of the phone home not happening, and high 3g usage triggering a disconnect on the other end. I can't prove it yet, but I'm trying to figure out a way to get tcpdumps for wireshark. I know my usage is very high right now.
This seems to be a problem alright..see this thresd: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1051543
Mine is low. For me, going to ed01 started the whole mess. Eve going back to dl09, didn't solve anything. The 3#g shows up and random disconnect every five minutes. Remind me of old modem days of bad handshake and reconnect loop. That is basically what it is doing. Once connected, hell of slow tried speed test and the result was horrible.
Looked through all settings values, factory reset, tried several different radio and from. All no such luck.

dl09 radio > all
I came from Das BAMF Remix 1.6.3; performed factory wipe/data reset, wipe dalvik and wiped cache. I flashed the GB Radio via Hboot (update=yes; then updates by doing 2 things, then hit power to restart). I then flashed the ROM.
The first two (2) times I flashed 2.0-4.0 and could NOT get Wi-Fi to work, but I had 3G working no probs as well as GPS. Went out for a couple hours and had no issues. Got Back, and I still could not get Wi-Fi to connect. I reflashed radio..no dice...re-downloaded the ROM, did a complete wipe and reflashed both the ROM and radio. Still would not connect, even after I downloaded Test7 kernel (kernel shouldn't mess with my mobile connection?).
I then went and downloaded 2.0-4.01, and now I can connect to Wi-Fi. Now the problem is that I am stuck on 1x Mobile Data and cannot get 3G. I've re-wiped, reflashed and downloaded Imeseyons new kernel..still stuck on 1x. I have even tried toggling Airplane mode, but cannot get it to 3G connection.
Any ideas?
Dunno if it will make any difference but flash the rom 1st then either battery pull or adb into hboot to flash the radio. Maybe others can confirm if this might help or not.
Not sure if this is the root of your problem, but the directions given by the developers of these gingerbread roms indicate that you should put the rom and radios on the root of sd card, flash the rom first in recovery, don't reboot, get into hboot via adb, then let the radios flash, and reboot. It sounds like you flashed the radios first, and then the rom. Maybe this is causing your problems?

Don't think so, cause I have tried both ways. Also, in Ad's posts he recommended both ways.
Either way, if I botched it the first time, it doesn't make sense that with the same radio I was getting 3g but no Wi-Fi, but now I'm getting Wi-Fi and no 3g.
I reflashed back to Remix 1.6.3 and have 3g+Wi-Fi right away.
And 3g returns..On 1.6.3.

When I wiped and reverted back to 1.6.3 I lost a Superuser file. I decided to re-root and start from scratch.
Re-rooted, then flashed 2.0-4.1 and let it startup. Then shutdown and went into Hboot and flashed GB ROM. Went through a normal startup and I had 1x which after a couple of minutes turned into 3G, but very laggy. I then flashed Imo's 2.5.4 kernel and re-started. 3G came up and speeds were just fine.
A lot of work to get BAMF to work, but I'm happy. Now working on adding Launcher Pro, Fancy Widget and a few other personalizations.
Unfortunately I can't post this question in the thread that the issue originated from but :
last night I was on com rom 2.0 with OTb1.6 kernel and ec01 radio. I did the ODIN flash to DL09 modem and then up to ED04. Had no issues at all. This morning I decided to take the plunge into gingerbread and used this thread here JT1134 CW7. I played around with this for a few hours and didn't seem to have any issues besides the known bugs. So then I decided to up to the newer rom by nemisis2all
Nothing seemed to have any issues in the orange CWM while applying the update
Now I have no signal.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Also is there a link anywhere for just the original kernel from JT1134 CM7 test build 06/09
EDIT: looking at the phone status is says baseband unknown. So I think I'm just going to wipe all and go back to the original 06/09 build byJT1134 unless anyone has just the kernell.
Thanks up front
Josh
You should try flashing a recent modem first to see if that resolves the problem. I am using EC01 just fine with the 6.09 build from the thread you linked. I have noticed on occasion mobile data will drop, but it seems toggling wifi fixes that (cannot say for sure). But I have not had any problems with voice signal.
It is still an alpha, so keep that in mind, but it has been working great for me.
with the ED04 modem, I did have the signal drop for a few moments earlier, but it seemed fine after reboot. and I have noticed that the mobile data does drop occasionally after being on Wifi for a period of time, but reboot seems to fix that too.
Ya i even just tried to flash all 3 times data, dalvik, cache and then install the CMW7 test 2 from JT again thinking it would jsut revert to the old kernel included in his and work again. But it is still no signal and no baseband version.

I probably should have read in a bit deeper, in order to flash to the ED04 modem I actually had to flash back to a touchwiz rom then flash over the DL09 and I used CWM 3.0.x to flash up to ED04. I had tried to do it in the orange CWM that came with CM7 test 2 and it failed multiple times. After I had gone back to DL09 and updated modem I just flashed CM7 back over and have not had much problem since other than data dropping.
I Just Odin the modem back to DL09 and then CWM Orange from DL09 to ED04 and working again. Thanks for the input guys.
Sorry tried a few different roms and coming to wits end
Just wondering which of these is a good stable rom
Tried most recently cm7 and miui the ran good but GPS was wonky at best
Always had to reboot to use
Just wondering what would be a good rom with decent performance that GPS works with.

I think GPS works in Bionix, it is a 2.2 rom by team whiskey. I have never tried it.
I was using cm7 and miui, I liked both, smooth and fast, but minor issues like constant reboot required to get GPS to work. So I'm back on stock deodexed/rooted kb5. GPS works ok, but definitely better than on GB.

In my opinion it doesn't get any better than TeamWhiskey Bionix-v 1.3.1 with Tigers BLood Kernel.
I'm running that. TeamWhiskey has never failed me.
i was on RevolutionRom JVP (gingerbread) with clockworkmod recovery, and i TI Backup'd.... manually wiped data, cache, dalvik, and then installed the simply honey zip file from recovery, and it wiped for me automatically (which was expected) and now during its boot screen where it says "powered bay talon sh kernel", the phone simply goes into a bootloop.
so now my question is, how do i go back to bionix-v (froyo) from the gingerbreaded bootloop? would i have to odin back to stock or something?

If you didn't apply the Gingerbread bootloaders i think you can just ODIN to stock then flash. If you did to the Gingerbread bootloaders I think you have to ODIN the froyo bootloaders then Odin to stock.

NO GB bootloaders are backwards compatible. No need to flash froyo bootloaders.

it really depends on you. im on miui right now because i cant go without gingerbread, but i also liked bionix. it was extremely stable
ya, it's... im also on MIUI, as 2.3 is the only os with proper copy past.... its just hard to get past the hacked drivers....
as far as the gps, i picked up a bt-gps brick that gets 1m accuracy, i can sit up in the window and works great... cost me $20.
Before you reply - let me lay a story for ya!
I bought a bran new TBolt off of my friend. I was using a fascinate up to that point and never had any issues. I loved my fassy - it was fast, reliable, and everything worked well.
Now onto the TBolt - I got the SOFF, rooted, got recovery, and got a few Roms. It is still working fine. What's the issue?
Well, I posted this on this forum and other forums more than once, but I can never seem to get an answer. After a few ROMS - Infected, Vicious, ThunderShed - I get a splash screen, or if it does boot it freezes as soon as it accesses the radio components. I have CM7.1 on it right now, ran liquid, vicious miui and other roms. Most roms do work in fact without any problems - but the few that I heard are amazing - do not.
What I have done:
Made sure my recovery is upgraded: I have tried latest CWM, EXT, CWM Touch, and the other one that was popular - all updated and did not work.
Always make sure to wipe: I always format all partitions. I have even used the Superwipe script as well, but to no avail.
I have installed a stock rom, wiped and then installed: Someone said that would work - it did not.
Double, no - triple checked my roms': Checked the MD5 sum of all ROMS and Recoveries.
Different Radios: My phone came with newest radios, and I downgraded, upgraded, and nothing.
Now, I do not mean to sound picky - but I am not happy with the TBolt at all. It works at half the quality that I had from my fassy. Wifi errors out sometime, Tether errors out sometime, it lags some of the time, and most of all - no ICS. Liquid worked well, but the touchscreen wouldn't respond during some games - not that I use it for gaming much anymore - but the idea remains.
It sounds like you are trying all of the right things, so unfortunately I don't really have anything helpful to offer. Just curious though, If you were happier with the fascinate, why stop using it? Did it break?
As far as your issues, I have found CM 7 based ROMs (or any roms not based off of sense builds) to be less reliable and have more "glitches" than sense roms. That certainly could explain some of your gripes with the TB. Have you been able to install any Sense roms other than stock?
I have long since settled on Chingy's gingeritis rom as the most reliable and feature filled, but obviously that opinion differs depending on who you talk to.
To answer your question first: I started using the TBolt because it was 4G and that was important for me at the time (I was a student and had no reliable internet). Things have changed now and I am most likely going to change back sooner than later.
I haven't tried many Sense roms. Which would be the most reliable and recommended?
I know you said you tried downgrading your radios and that your phone came with the newest ones flashed but if you haven't already done so, check this out.

One thing with switching to a AOSP rom from a sense based rom is that you have to use very specific radios. this page will help you find the exact radios you need to use for the rom you are running.
I am running Thundershed 1.6 with these:

Alright. Thx for the help guys - for the time being I am back to the fascinate, but I will try your suggestions.
One thing I am also trying is the using the "non-semsung" micro sd card in the TBOLT.
I will report back after this weekend with the results.
