Hello everyone,
I'm not sure if I'm the only one or not since I haven't seen this issue in any of the threads for any JB Roms. This doesn't seem to be a problem for any 1 Rom, so I'm thinking it has to do with the CM10 base everyone is using. Here is the problem:
Everything is fine on the Rom for a few days - I can browse the web, make calls, get emails, etc... Then, I'll make a call, and the call will connect (call timer starts on screen), but I can't hear the person on the other end, and they can't hear me. I know this for a fact because I called my wife's phone which I was using as a test.
It would continue to stay like this (even after rebooting normal, rebooting to recovery and wiping cache / dalvik). The only thing that seemed to fix the problem would be to re-install the Rom.
For now I'm back on one of the CM9 Roms, and everything is ok. I really like CM10, but don't want to potentially get into an emergency situation, and then not be able to use my phone, or go to make a business call, and look like an idiot because people can't hear me, etc...
I just wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this, or has a fix? Thanks for your input.
what Rom ? (specific)
what carrier? ( is this an ATT device running with a different carrier? )
what region? (are you in the US, Canada, or elsewhere? )
Most reports are leaning toward the modem as the issue. If we know the above information, we can suggest a fix or patch based on them....g

Rom: I've tried all of the CM10 Roms currently available, and it happened on each of those. Most recent was CM10Hybrid Paranoid Android.
Carrier: AT&T
Region: US. More specifically - South East.
The last modem I flashed directly (unless one was cooked into a rom), was UCLF6.

Lets test this a bit more....
Download and flash the Stock, UCLA1 modem, then reboot it 3 times. then try a call to a test device.
I've had marginal success with the modems above the UCLA range, and am using the UCLA1 Modem on virtually all of the roms I use. ( now if I could get all 1352 apn's from the stock rom to work...LOL ).....
It may show up as "unknown" in the "about phone" settings, but based on the tests I've done with it, you should be safe on the IMEI loss issue that some TMO users are reporting.
There is always that chance, but where you are US based on ATT, and that is their modem, you should be fine.
Test that bad boy out, and report back if ya would...thank you....g
I think its just the cm10 roms ..mainly because I've seen a post like this in all the JB forums...

I second that as the same happened to me, but all I did was reboot and it solved the issue. Happens at least once or twice a day for me.

Have any of you tried a scheduled cache clearing app ?
I've found many issues due to cache building in the background APK's....
It effectively bogs down everything , and once cleaned , fixes "a lot " of issues ...
Could someone test this and report back ?
At least we would know where to look at fixing the issues, rather than assuming it's a modem issue .....g
I hate asking questions but i havent read up on this problem..
So every night for who knows how long now my text will all come in at once.
Calls arent coming thru but other person can hear the ring over and over and it doesnt ring on my end.
Calls and text will come in after i make a phone call.
my text are recieved but i dont recieve anything..
Its not Att because a lot more people would experience this..
All i can think of is swapping modems and see how it goes..
any other ideas anyome might have??
TIA
What ROM are you on? Last night I had an issue with cm10 905 nightly and got 3 texts after midnight all at same time, 1 from my mom so I know they were likely from the afternoon.
Might have to try another ROM if it continues to be an issue. This was on cm10 905 with uclf6 modem.

There are two things that might be going on there. I have heard similar complaints associated with cm10 based roms, if that's the case reflash is probably the best option aside from trying different modems.
That is also a common carrier issue, i have worked for both rogers and bell, most carriers use the same crm, when a customer service rep adds or removes a feature (voicemail or a text package) or changes your overall price plan some times the system gets... backed up at the switch, not really sure how to properly explain that situation, but technical support is usually well aware of how to reset your account. Its a common problem which is not necessarily shared by everyone on the network.
Just something to think about.

It sounds like a network/carrier/weather problem, especially with others mentioning similar issues. If it doesn't clear up within a day, then its time to look at the phone.
Thank you all for the replies
I'm on CM10/LiquidSmooth ROM
CLF6 modem
Its happened on CM9 and stock ROMs as well
It happens more often after some one goes over the data limit or something else is charged to the bill....
It might be ATT after all.... just kinda bugged by it since it happens A LOT even with out any changes being made to the bill/data plan
I'll test out with different modems to see if problem persists if not then im done with ATT

I think the FL6 modem is pretty good. But its worth the time experimenting. After you flash, give it a little time to settle in.

On every Jellybean rom, I have calling issues. On some roms, call audio wont work. On the rom I just flashed, it would not make or receive calls all together. Also, this happens only after a certain period of time. And it goes from sporadic occurances to permanent. It takes about a day or two for these issues to start appearing. This is so god damn frustrating because in the beginning the rom works perfectly, I spend all my time setting it up, and then a day or so later, I get these issues that make the phone completely unusable. Its absolutely ridiculous, and If anyone has any ideas, please please let me know. I love the JB roms but they all seem to make my phone unusable after a short time.
Please help....
JB roms are still a work in progress. And your problems could be caused/made worse by your setup (apps, widgets, tweaks, etc...). If you are using different kernels/radio, it can also contribute to problems. There are just too many variables.
My answer : use an ICS rom. ICS roms are alot more stable on our phone right now.

I am observing similar issues. I didn't used to happen before. I mean it did happen but it was a rare thing. But now it is more often. Almost everyday I have to reflash because of loosing phone audio.
I was rocking AOCP 3.1 , Worked really sweet and then decided to update to go for AOCP 4.1 and since then no rom that I tried have saved me. In fact I had to revert back to stock. What rom are you using?
People, it's a known issue on all JB Roms.
Don't open a thread about it.

I have the exact same issue now, It doesnt look like any rom is saving me right now.. my phone wont make calls or receive texts at all. I was running cookies and cream 4.1.2 and everytime i flash a JB rom it just seems to get worse and worse...
EDIT: I got it back on ICS. I guess I will just have to wait to use any JB roms... its unfortunate cause I love the JB roms hahaha
I have had issues with JB as well. I, just like the OP, would experience a perfectly working phone for a day or two then **** would hit the fan for no apparent reason. The phone would start locking up, randomly rebooting, apps would fail or not load, etc etc etc.
On most ROM's I didn't even have anything installed outside of the stock apps that CAME with the ROM.
Since then I have moved to a deoxed stock ICS ROM and honestly am not looking back. ICS is fast, stable, feature packed, and JUST WORKS.
My thing with JB was it's speed...but I was also comparing a barebones JB to the stock Gingerbread that came with the phone. I wasn't aware of how fast ICS was or I would have just gone with it long before hand!
But yeah, either way it goes, for me, no matter the ROM, JB always seemed to mess up at one point or another. Got annoying. Been going with ICS for over a week now with ZERO issues what so ever. No reboots, no crashes, no freezing, no nothing.
NEVERMIND..... ICS worked for one call, and now no calls work... great....
ICS roms are very stable.
You may have flashed your rom/kernel/radio incorrectly, or made some tweaks, or installed incompatible apps... There are too many variables.
Revert back to completely stock setup and see if the problems persist.

Same. I think it's the same for a lot of people, and I think the ones who say things run great either ignore the problems or are just extremely lucky.
Switch to Padawan. It's rock solid and you get all the fanciness of jelly bean. Since switching to it I've completely lost the itch to try out random JB ROMs. I have cool animations, Google Now, and ICS Browser+. And until I rebooted earlier to mess with stuff, I was at 142 hours uptime without any problems.
I'm not calling anyone a liar, though. I just think some people ignore more or are, as stated, lucky. I've done wiped everything, went back and wiped stuff post ROM, ran 3rd party (3rd ROM party) kernels and the ones that come with it. I've set cron to fix permissions on boot. And other than gapps -- which I always flash what the dev says to -- I run about ten 3rd party apps, and that's mostly made up of solid apps -- dropbox, exdialer, ics browser+.. etc..
Padawan, or even Nebula.
These ROMs are by the same dev, and the only difference is that Nebula is based off of Canadian version, which has even less bloat. It is better than stock.
I have been on Nebula for about a week, and no random reboots, no lockup, no phone problems. Everything just works.

I like padawan, and Im on it now. But i still am getting this random issue where calls do not go through. Its so aggravating that Im about to smash my phone against the wall. Its happening all the time now and when I need to make a call, I cant. god damnit
have you flashed the most recent modem?
Yes, that was my next question.
Have you at any point flashed a different kernel/radio/modem? If you have, or if you do not know, search for stock kernel/radio/modem and flash them to see if it helps.
yes, uclf6 modem but eventually it just gives out.. idk what the issue is here everything works fine for a few days and out of the blue when I need my phone i cant receive or make calls anymore its INFURIATING

I have had a similar issue with the JB rom's...so far I've tried only two and seem to find the aokp_quicyatt_jb_milestone-1 rom. I have noticed issues with my phone and LTE network coverage...meaning, I can see the signal go from 4G LTE to 3G to H, then gone...I looked at the phone status settings and noticed the mobile network type with this rom is LTE:13 and with the stock ICS rom (prior to rooting and flashing) it was LTE:14...is there a way that I can change it via terminal? Thank you in advance for any help on this. The one big difference I can see so far is the battery life...much better. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Issues are known....Thread Closed & Thank You.
Hi guys. I'm having a real hard time with my phone right now and I hope someone can help me.
First of all, my Note is still on ICS running the last stable build of CM9 (CM 9.1.0 to be exact) without any other kernel or radio modifications. I just performed a clean install of this the other day also. The problem I'm having is that the phone will literally be sitting next to me connected to my home wi-fi and it will fail to receive texts and phone calls. What I mean by that is, my girlfriend will be trying to text me but nothing will come through on my phone for up to an hour. Then at some random time, all the so-called pending SMS will finally display on my phone all with the same time-stamp. Similarly, if someone tries to call me, I will have no notification of this until way after the fact when the voicemail symbol appears (that's IF a message was left).
Now, to me, this seams to be happening at completely random times and I have not been able to pinpoint what's causing it. Before, I used to think it happened after a prolonged time of having the phone on silent and non-use. But just last night the problem happened again when this was not a factor.
A few other notes:
Only seems to happen at home where I am connected to wi-fi. And frankly, I don't travel enough to test my phone anywhere else. While at home my signal strength on AT&T fluctuated between 0-1 bar up to 3 bars. Kinda strange, I know.
Before switching to the CM 9.1.0 rom, I was using CM9-Kang h0tsauce "9" 20120817 *reborn* for quite some time. I experienced the problem with that rom as well but it didn't seem to happen as much.
Rebooting the phone seems to help. When I do this, it seems to push everything through and allows me to be able to receive new messages instantly. Obviously, though, this is not a good work-around since I have no idea when the problem will show up.
So.... anyone know what's going on here? Hardware/software/network problem? I've done some searching but couldn't really find this issue discussed anywhere else. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have been having the same problems as you on a Blackstar X and Flapjaxxx's ICS build 12. I talked to AT&T a couple of times and they reconnected me to the network which has helped a little, but I still get missed texts and calls, but not as often. I have no idea how to fix the issue. Hopefully, somebody out there does.
Sounds like to me that you have a very bad signal. In case you didn't know, texts go through the phone signal and not wifi. The wifi connection is just a coincidence since you never leave home and are always connected to wifi. Going somewhere with a better signal would help clarify this.
There are apps on Google Play that restore your network when it goes down. Possibly they may help you.

I started having this issue with my One X. Git a replacement and had the same issue. Now on my note I have the same issue. It's only at home though and I'm on wifi. Started on BlackStar X now I'm on FJ AOSPxxx JB. Seems to happen more. Think I might go back to BlackStar. Didn't happen as much
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
Also ..if going back to blackstar ...
The older version is UCLF6 ...And the newer version comes from the N7005 device base .....
Not that it makes much difference, but the older version will likely give you the same results as FJ's UCLF6 builds.....
You may want to try the newer version first ...g
Edit: the older builds allow the use of FJ's 3.0.2 kernels....the newer base will not.
So I just wanted to share something really weird and ask if anyone has ever seen anything like it before.
I recently flashed the last AOKP update, and my phone was running phenomenally. I went out last night and my battery died because I forgot to charge it... No biggie. Got home, turned it on, no signal. Odd, since I have pretty decent service in the area. After doing the usual troubleshooting of cycling airplane mode, I tried pulling the battery and sim. That also didn't work. I went into settings to check my APNs, and instead of the usual menu, I saw only 4 options. The option to select APNs wasn't even there. The last one said "Set CDMA..." something. I forget the rest. Wish I had remembered to take a screenshot. In "About Phone", my baseband was blank. Tried reflashing back to LC5 radio. Still nothing. Did a full wipe and reflash of the ROM, and that got me back in business. Right now, all is well. I was just unaware that a phone could magically switch over to CDMA, even if there is no CDMA radio in an i777.
Any thoughts on the cause?
EDIT:
ROM: Task's AOKP 4.14
Kernel: Stock
Radio: UCLL6 when issue started. Now on UCPLC5
Not an issue that's related to the rom, as far as I know. Unless others have reported this issue and I've missed it. If you do a full wipe and re flash as you've done and don't install any programs for a good 24 to 48 hours, and nothing of the sort happens again, odds are it has something to do with an app you installed. Unless your service provider maybe was experiencing problems at the time.

No, definitely an anomaly. Not something that anyone else has reported. I called AT&T to verify if there were any issues in the area or with my account, and everything checked out. I haven't downloaded a new application in months. I restored from TiBu right after reflashing and everything is still good. Like I said, not trying to report it or anything; just looking for thoughts.
You meant APN and baseband NEVER come to live? If that's the case, then I haven't heard or read any report about it.
If it's up and running like normal AFTER 5 minutes, then it's has been reported many many times last week.

This is what I thought. I have a feeling that since AOKP is based of CM, there is code built in to support both CDMA and GSM. Somehow, the software glitched, and made the switch.
