ics radio combo - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey I was wondering if anyone else had flashed the leak lte radio in combination with the .9 cdma radio? I've had it running for roughly a week and I've had maybe 2 data drops which was normal for me. Also here are some speeds. The latest few are from the .9/leak radio combo.

Also to clarify I'm running unmodified jmod ics's latest release. The only thing I've changed is uninstalling set cpu

I have tried that on both liquids version and jesters and still had data drops. I think it has to do more with the ril they put together causing the drops.

Aosp and data

I've been lovin my aosp Rom but hating the data drops so I went back to sense and hate it more even though it has no data issues at all. Anything I can do to solve the data drop issue with aosp?

I love CM7 but left for this reason. However I have come back to CM7 with a new radio and it seems to have fixed it. Although the LTE radio (the newest leak) has no problems FOR ME, I sometimes experience problems with the 3G radio. I know you can mix and match some radios but I am not in 3G enough to make it worth it. Sometimes my hand-off is slow when I am leaving a LTE or a 3G area and going to the other (unfortunately I experience this every day on my commute). However, it is not nearly a big enough an issue to make me leave CM7.
MY only advice is, experiment with radios! try the newest one leaked (".3"?) if you haven't!

Wifi Issues?

Does anyone have wifi issues on ICS? I'm using Cleanrom DE 1.4 and my phone has been having problems with wifi. I'll be able to connect but I lose connectivity every couple minutes.
Never on clean but pokemon knocks out my laptop too

I think it's a range issue. Ever since the 3.14 ruu flash my phone doesn't get as strong a connection as it used to

[Q]Which radios are currently the best ones?

I'm in the global FW and radios but are the radios just before the global oat better? More reliable?

Global isn't the an official ota. They run great on mine but best would be construed to each device. There are some rez out there that love the gingerbread firmware the best

These are the radios I am currently running and I was on latest leaked global radios. I kept the hboot and just found a place that had some firmware updates and I just pulled the hboot and flashed them. I get twice the speeds on my phone that what I had but ymmv
I think the global radio is the best it connects quickly and more stable.
The radios are probably placebo like the build.prop edits

quite possible but testing radios take time since a lot can be a factor on a few day basis. kernels take a few charge cycles to settle in. radios could take up to 2 weeks to properly see differences between previous and current selections

Can I flash a older radio?

My EVO LTE is s-off with hboot 1.12. I installed the latest jelly bean firmware through the bootloader and my radio is now 1.12.11.1119. I've noticed my 3g speeds are much slower and was wondering if I could flash a previous radio. I've done some searching and everything I have read says trying to downgrade my firmware will brick my EVO. Can I flash only the radio through recovery? Thanks for any help.
Yes

Thanks.
Do not downgrade radio if you don't want a paper device.

I think it may be possible to do but it is a very big risk. If you are going to attempt it, you better have insurance. Let us know what happens
I do it. I've never had a problem. I only use the radio from captain throwback zip files. The new radio stinks. My days as home went from900 kbs to 200. I switched to last radio and data came back.

DO NOT DO IT. I did not read Captain's warning in red letters, at themikmik.com, and my phone got bricked. Radios could be rolled back with the OG EVO, but the LTE is a different beast.

I was able to flash an older radio but it didn't help with my 3g speeds at all. I then reinstalled the latest firmware to get the latest radios back. I think sprint was just extra slow for a few days because my speeds are back to normal.
Are your guys who are bricks wiping dalvik and cache? I don't understand why some can and some can't. I bet it's the production date of the phone. Who knows?

Internet slowness

Browsing the net and playing a net based game, i get really long delays when loading anything. I havent experienced this on my s3, or when i had the dna. Has anyone else had this experience? When it happens i home button the app, open speed test and it tests great. Running 4.2.1Pa build, latest l4 modem, and basic kernel.

Some people don't get the same experience with the new modem
Flash back to the previous modem that might help

Yeah sadly it happened on both, both on stock then on aosp with this rom and l4 modem. Eh oh well.

I'm noticing faster 4g but slower 4g with the new modem. I wish we had someone who could repackage them with 3g from the original modem and 4g from the new one and vice versa, on the thunderbolt we had this, not sure if it's possible on Samsung phones.
