I am running CWM and the stock rom and like it much better. It seems to connect at startup to t-mobil 4g, but after a few minutes goes to edge. Is there anyway to make it stay on 4g? Is there a modem that I can flash that will work with the stock rom?
Thanks!!
I'm pretty sure that all the 4G radio/modem suggestions that are supposed to work on T-Mobile can be used on the stock ROM as long as the phone is rooted.
After the phone is rooted, would you use cwm to install the modem?
I think on the stock rom i cant force the hspa..just changed the rom to saurom so u can get better 4g and u can force it.

I was on stock GB 2.3.3. then i rooted my phone for the first time today. i was planning to install custom ROM 2.3.4 Phoenix. then i read somewhere that i need to be on the old baseband. and i saw a guide to do that. i did the same.
I purchased ROM Manager. i tried to download ROM. it asked to do a backup, and i did that - within ROM Manager. then it showed me few available ROM's. and i clicked the Mik's CM 7.1 and installed it. but there was no network. Wifi was working.
So, I tried to do a restore. but it said i can't do that because Clkwrkmod Restore is not installed. I installed it using WiFi, but it didn't work saying there was some files missing. then I thought of downloading 2.3.4 Phoenix to overcome this situation, hoping that network will comeback. i downloaded and installed it. but still no network as well as no WiFi.
What should i do now? is baseband an issue here? Pls pls.. anyone help. I know i did some big mistakes..
i will be more than happy to go back to even Froyo 2.2, my original stock ROM. i need to get network working.

You need to downgrade tour baseband for GSM. Andy's rom wifi does not work, flash latest 19 Sept FRANCO kernel only.

Hey guys i have been having some signal problems with my ace, but I only have them when inside my house. This started happening when I flashed gingerbread 2.3.5 to get a custom rom for my Ace (which is awesome btw!) the rom I am currently using is WP7 Rom by Jinavs. I have googled & searched a lot and all I found was a code to change the GSM too 900/1800 but I tried the code and it said that it was invalid, the code is *#2263#. Then I read something about changing the phone's modem is this possible on custom firmware? I never had any problems when I was on Stock Froyo 2.2.1. Any help guys?
Also master reset or factory reset does not work :/
what I do sometimes is airplane mode or turn off the phone and it sometimes works
and it only happens inside my house it works fine in any other place.
Any help will be appreciated
Use 2.3.4 Asia version ddkq6 no signal problems.and use cm7.2 fat kang by frozen ace more steadier ...
Hit thanxs if I helped

I'm from Puerto Rico if that changes anything. Also is this risky? would it brick my phone because the Rom I'm using is based on XWKS2
Also how would I flash the modem only?
And I would like to keep this rom because I love WP7 xD
Anyone? :/

create a cwm backup then. the point of reflashing stock rom is to get correct modem for your region. after that u can just restore the cwm backup, it wont overwrite the modem.

Ok but the firmware is a 1 package.
Am I going to flash only the modem or the whole rom?
whole rom. even if after flashing it doesnt boot/stuck on boot/bootloop, just restore previous cwm backup and see if the modem version in phone setting changed

clear data/factory reset from cwm. note that u'll lost all data when doing so, but if its not working either even after factory reset then just restore the cwm backup
its worth a try
So I finally have everything setup where I can actually root and flash my phone.
I am going to go with Energy ROM. My question is what is the best kernal for that ROM? Faux? What recovery should be used as well?
Also, my phone being a Mobilicity (canada) phone (originally Telus) will I have any issues with any ROM/setup? Or should everything work?
Energy ROM and stock kernel is pretty good already. XBoarder's touch recovery is the newest one out there so I'd recommend that too. Everything should work properly

Stock kernel seems to have a littme better battery life, but faux is great too. You shouldnt have any problems, but you may have to manually enter in the APN settings for your carrier...

I'm having the same problem. My data works fine if I switch back to a gingerbread rom, but stops with any ICS rom. I've even tried to restore the APN's via APN backup and restore, but no luck.
Does anyone have a fascinate ICS rom working with MetroPCS internet yet?

Yes, I read the post above, but wasn't sure if this pertained to MetroPCS too. I don't have 3g with Metro.
Also, how do I apply the patch. Do I have to push using ADB or RootExplorer?

ive noticed on the fascinate that apnbackup and restore doesnt do much for ics+ so theres a file that is in system/etc/apn-config.xml full of apn settings just add metropcs and ic&e's apns in there using the format, its all the apns that your cdma phone can use, then make into a flashable zip and it will be ready to re-flash everytime you switch roms. i have to do this for my fascinate to get it to work on straight talk lol
if i knew what the apn settings were for them i would make you a zip, ill look into it later tho
Hey guys, i was wondering if its possible to flash over your stock rom through safestrap? And if i did would it mess my phone up any? could i still use utility's or rsd lite to get my phone unbricked if i somehow did?
The reason for me wanting to do this is because for some reason my stock rom "messed up" idk how.. but my wifi does not work. I do not know if lte works either as i am currently out of america and have no service. Wifi does not work on stock rom, cm11, any other roms. Other than cm 10.1.3. Idk why but thats just how it is and i do not know how to fix it. Numerous re-flashes to stock to no avail. i was thinking that if i flashed 10.1.3 over stock that it would fix the wifi on stock and possibly allow wifi to work on other roms so i can finally upgrade to 4.4.2!!
Any thoughts? thanks guys
I think you can in the latest safestrap (3.65),but I've never done it.
Also, from my understanding, you should still be able to fastboot/utility/red lite

You can flash it using SS 3.65. Just make sure the ROM is supported by newer version of SS(All new ROMs are). You can use the utility or RSD Lite to flash the fastboot files after if you need.
