You need to have it sim unlocked and flash one of the radios that are compatible.
Here.
Not to be a douche, but arent you in the wrong forum? I know that the Radios suggested are for the Note, you say you have the GNex...
My wifi will not stay connected. I have searched the forums and have not found an answer yet. Any help is appreciated. Please let me know what info is needed to help trouble shoot.

WiFi has been solid for me on his build. What recovery are you using?

I used ROM manager to install. Did all the wipes just like previous installs I have done.
Sent from my ThunderBolt using xda app-developers app
Download 4ext recovery and use the wipe all except sd card before flashing. Cwm is extremely outdated and people are having issues like that after using it.

I will give that a try. Is that the recovery tool of choice these days?
Thanks for the help btw

I did as directed and still have the wifi connecting then disconnecting. Got any other suggestions?
Check your radio version. If you're not using the .19 radios give them a shot.

Well, I put these radios on:
1.49.00.0406w_1, 0.02.00.0312r
I have the same issue. lol
This is getting pretty sad. Do you have any other suggestions?
Maybe try to download the Rom again. Then reflash in 4ext.

At least I have unlimited data, lol. Still would be nice to have WiFi working because we only have a weak 3G signal at our home.
Did it work before you started using that Rom? My other suggestion would be to try a different ics Rom. Sorry I wasn't able to help but you're not the only with that problem. I'm surprised that no one else hasn't tried to help.

It worked fine before ics. I will look into trying a different build but I really like this one.

Yea it is a great build it sucks you're having WiFi problems. Have you tried changing channels on the phone side?
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2
I had the same issue, I used the tweaked combo radio that used the .19 CDMA radio, with the leaked ICS LTE radio.
Well, I don't know how or why but it works now. I got mad and took the battery out and left it for a day. When I put it back in and turned it on it was working.

Question concerning this ROM as well. My signal bars either constantly indicate 2 bars for the 4 bar version, or full for the 6 bar signal version, and nothing else unless I am not on 4G. I saw someone posted this question somewhere else about a week ago or longer but I have been unable to locate it since I have been using the ROM. My data connection is usually fine so I wasn't sure if it'd be the radio I'm using or something with the ROM and if I may need to reflash.

I'm having that now with every rom I flash. GB and ICS based. It seems worse with ICS leaks, but it's a problem for me across the board.

Currently running 4.2.1 though cyanogenmod. Just unlocked the phone. Need help with a signal problem. Was told by T-Mobile that I was covered with 4g (H+ on my phone) where I live. Yet when I get home or even 4 miles outside of the downtown area (Portland, OR), I go back to EDGE service. Anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

I did, but they didn't have many suggestions. They said I'm supposed to have 4g coverage yet I'm sitting on Edge.
Hmmm T-Mobile usually uses a different freq for 3g than att does.

YOU CAN'T. the only way you can get h+ is in an area that has the 1900 mhz band, and that's not that many places. You can't change the phones hardware. Here's a suggestion, don't use an AT&T phone on t mobile.

It's a straight talk i777 so it's compatible with our roms, and also has the same bands available.

Well after going through 4 GNex replacements VZW has decided to send me a HTC DNA to replace it, and it will be here monday.
I am curious as to the two different DNA Development Threads... ?
Can someone explain?
Also as I have been reading threads (still reading now) that the current RUU is unrootable?
Is this still true? ( I may have already got to "that thread" by the time I get an answer)
Just trying to get some info before I delve into it.

Are you referring to the DNA Android Development and DNA Original Android development boards? The first one (loosely speaking) is more for kangs, and roms that are based off of stock, as well as roms that are based off of other people's work (i.e. not fully original work). The original development board is geared towards roms built from source (i.e. AOSP roms), as well as development that introduce original features.

This is false. I recommend using Moonshine to root and unlock your device on the latest update.

You are getting an incredible device my friend. Beautiful screen, lightning fast, and a surprisingly decent battery. Plus we have had an influx of roms since Chad got cyanogenmod working and even more devs since the moonshine s-off solution!

Agreed.
I intentionally moved from the gnex to the DNA, as I had a coupon to get it for free and I felt the deal couldn't be beat.
After a slow start (as s-off wasn't available yet) when I first got it, I am now absolutely thrilled with it and couldn't be happier.
Performance is so much better than the Gnex, it's ridiculous.
Well now FedEx can't get here soon enough after reading your comments.

4G is a-ok. I had a Gnex once upon a blue moon and the differences are staggering. I found the screen to be dark and brooding no matter how high the brightness was set. On the DNA, even at low brightness the colors seem to pop. You'll be more than happy.

I am S-off, Rooted. Tried several roms but had no data at all, couldn't sign in to Google account.
I had backed up my stock Rom after I rooted and I'm on it now. Rebooted.
On LTE/cdma. Getting frustrated... No 4G sucks.... Don't know how I ever survived on 3G....lol

Have you tried to ruu it? Maybe that will help. Also try after ruu going into stock recovery and factory reset from there. It fixed my radio when I was stuck on roaming... Maybe it will help you. Also have you tried reseating the sim card? Those have been known to be very touchy on our phones

I recently flashed my thunderbolt, and simply am stuck trying to get 3g to work. I've read countless threads about it in multiple forums, but I just cant figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I am now going bald.

I downgraded from ICS to GB using a guide on phandroid. I believe it may have something to do with the way I flashed it, or the network not recognizing me, but I am unsure. I'm open to suggestions!
If your downgrade method didn't involve flashing the GB radios than there would be your problem. It wouldn't hurt to flash the latest GB radios just for kicks.

Yea, I'm certain I flashed the GB radios in recovery, my good man. Could it be something else? Could you verify what I need to set my M.IP, and PPP settings to, if you know?
As long as you are on Verizon I don't see why you would have to.

Oops! Maybe I should've added... I flashed it to boost, and I have talk and text working. Data icon displays 1x. I'm trying to get the 3g to kick. I'm using the info from my Incredible 2, which i flashed with the same account over a year ago. Everything works fine on the Incredible 2. Just no 3g on the thunderbolt.
The droid incredible 2 is a global phone and the bolt isn't. The radio in the bolt isn't capable.

So disconnecktie, does this mean my thunderbolt is incapable of 3g because it isn't a global phone? I do not understand dude.
The bolt doesn't have an antenna that will be able to connect with the frequency boost uses for data.

It does work for certain carriers. Page plus comes to mind but it had been a long time since I've heard of another carriers working.

Cool! Well thanks anyway. I'm trying to find a way to program it to my service. Just to get the settings right, and see what happens after that. For all I know, I have the settings right, and it just won't work.
Best bet would be to pick up a sprint phone that's not locked down via ESN (correct term?). Since Boost is basically Sprint's pay as you go service.
