tried resulted in boot loop it was the dinc2 w/1.9.2 i flashed patch using recovery right after miui was flashed then re-flashed miui let it boot up then it just says update failed after letting phone boot up completely then back to recovery then tried to flash then failed
im wondering if it had to do w/ the filesystem since htc and samsung are a lil different
i would let one of the dinc2 devs mess w/ it !
Just wanna say that thr latest rom fascinate build the 9.9 with your patch is running fine... The data works great.

I don't have the droid inc 2, so I can't test it
no data on straight talk
i started out like this was. on eclair 2.1(yawn) .rooted it then installed cwm after that i loaded a miui 1.8.6 rom it . but once it booted up i had no data it would show a 3g icon but kept cutting in and out but not working at all . but it doesnt allow it to access data at all . so i flashed this patch and 3g stays on but still no connection . i have flashed back to stock and i have great 3g . i am on straight talk .im on the stock radio also im gonna change it and ill update back soon
Update. I flashed a ec09 radio and still nothing .it shows 3g but it doesn't work any help would be much appreciated
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
Toggle airplane mode and back... the radio signal tends to die out
I always use this to enable data on CM7/MIUI on my Fascinate since I have a different carrier. One thing that doesn't work is MMS though, is this a limitation of CM7 or can this patch be modified to also enable MMS?
try replacing the mms.apk with modified ones. cricket flashers have made a modfied mms.apk you can try that.
Great work!!
Thanks a lot bang Massaint!!
I applied patch in my MIUI Fascinate 1.9.30. It worked flawlessly
Strange, but after the patch, version cm7 2.3.7, down to 2.3.5. Ust assumptions?

WiFi broken and can't read SIM after flashing virtuous rom?

To add into relations to my other post the reason I had to restir is cause the Virtuous Rom booted and WiFi woild not toggle on and keeps saying insert SIM.
??
I was only trying to install a good stable gsm Rom that would initially work well with apn settings seeing as I use the droid DNA UNLOCKED on T-Mobile.
I can't figure a way to keep the apn settings set after a reboot they default
So I read flashing a global gsm Rom will auto save the apns and theyll stick.
Any insight? Any good Roms that will do this for T-Mobile
And any reason or known reason on the re insert SIM issue after flashing a Rom
this is a noted problem from what I've read ,but with no Straight forward reason or solution.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
Well the Wifi not working is cuz you didn't flash the kernel properly.
And for the sim error, that's just a problem with the dna. Re seat it and it should be fine.

When you unzip the file there should be a boot.img file you will need to flash in fastboot. the command is fastboot flash boot boot.img
Then once you do that, boot into recovery and reflash the rom. Wifi should work.
According to both Verizon and HTC, there was a known issue with the phone software and not being able to read the SIM card. It happened to mine about ten times every week until an update was released to supposedly fix it in February. I still get the error from time to time, but far less than I did previously. If you've rooted and flashed a ROM prior to February, I would suggest making a backup and restoring the phone back to stock. Once you've done this, do the update to the new firmware and then reroot and restore from your backup. This should, I think, fix most SIM issues.

How to FIX GPS on any rom/recovery

You need to verify GPS is working before you backup your EFS, if it is, this can't not work.

Sorry to burst your bubble but GPS works fine on any 4.1.2 ROM including stock which was where I ran the zip tool. However on any recent 4.2.2 ROM it is broken and when I flash the efs backup I created from the working gps stock ROM. I still have no GPS in the 4.2.2 ROM.

Then you're doing something wrong. When you go back to make the backup, confirm GPS is working and locking first. I have tried this fix on every ROM with several different OGs and it works everytime since you're flashing a working EFS backup.

I am not stupid nor am I doing anything wrong. The ROM I backed the efs up from certainly locks as I verified it with GPS status before booting into recovery to run the backup zip. I am an old hand with Linux and android so your assumption that the reason this is not working is me doing something wrong is laughable.
Like many things related to hardware and software things don't always work on all devises even though they should be the same.

Did you guys OTA or LGNPST to official JB before flashing it, and have you also flashed the JB modem? Did you backup the EFS using the flashable zip and make sure to flash the same backup after the rom has already booted once or twice?

I'm running Vanilla Rootbox ROM on mine; I flashed the Optimus Pro radio, GPS works great.
Question for the people that can't get this fix to work. Which recovery are you using? I would suggest trying it with cwm if you haven't already.
Where'd you grab that radio? Better yet I guess I should most over to the Pro forum and look, lol.
Edit: Never mind, grabbed it. Thanks,

The fix doesn't work for me either.
Currently using Slick with verified GPS lock.
Steps taken using CWM - Nandroid backup of Slick -> EFS backup ZIP created -> Full wipe -> Install/restore Liquid Smooth (or any other 4.2.2 ROM) -> reboot and setup -> go back to CWM and restore EFS. ... no joy!
On my device, GPS only seems to be working on Slick. Would like to try the OG Pro Radio if someone has the link.

If you're using the ICS modem on a 4.2.2 ROM, GPS won't work either way. I've tested this fix with RootBox and all available modems and it works for all but ICS. While GPS works on the OG Pro modem, it breaks all sound.

This fixed my GPS.
What ended up fixing mine was installing cm10.1 coming from stock jb. Set the phone up. Tested GPS with GPS Status from the play store. No dice gps was borked showed SATs but would not lock. For giggles since I had previously tried the ops fix without success I tried an old inspire 4g fix and flashed the stock jb modem again from recovery. And walla it works gps locks in seconds.
Now it should have been running the stock jb modem already as I was on the stock ROM and hadn't fooled with the modem. However something to do with flashing 4.2.2 Roms must Bork the GPS portion of the modem. Reflashing the modem must correct said FUBAR.
Anyway it worked for me which means it may or may not work for anyone else... But it is something to try (;

Yeah, if you flash a 4.2.2 rom from stock, depending on the phone, it messes up GPS. The fix from the inspire is probably just a gps.conf file

{ROM}{PORT} Avatar ROM {ROM}{PORT}

I have taken the e975 international Optimus G official rom by avatar and ported it to our AT&T E970 until they make an official build for us. this rom is pretty bad. the theme options are much like Miui and they have many great features built into it.
Go to their website for the full low down on the rom and to request new features and themes and if you are a themer please make some of your themes available on their format.
Avatar Rom
I'll add the full details later tonight i'm in a rush for a BBQ and cold beer this afternoon but saw the avatar admin said i could post this port up and wanted to get it out to you all
I used our CM10.1 as a base so its using the cm10.1 kernel and any other kernel that ran on it should run on this but i have not tested it yet so beware and make backups
I used BANKS Gapps and have had no problem yet.
*****Known Issues****
- jb calling bug
- on initial install the external SD isn't recognized (I used the SD card fix from when codefire and others didn;t see the sd either. the link is below and i'm working on a permanent fix this week
-a few of the about phone/rom info is wrong. i'm also fixing this later this week
**Install Instructions**
1) Download the rom, gapps, and SD card fix from below and place them at the root of your SD card
2) Boot into CW and make a nandroid. i also recomened using Titanium to backup your apps
3) Wipe dalvik cache, system and do a full data wipe as well
4) Select Install zip and choose the rom file
5) Install Gapps if you wish
6) Install the SD card fix
7) Reboot into the ROM and let it boot up
8) boot into CW and restore your data if you so desire.

Full external SD card access

I was having issues with Titanium Backup saving to my external SD card due to the way android has it locked down. I was getting an "insufficient storage available". Found this, installed, and reboot. No problems.
I realize there is a way to have access using Xposed, but I like using ART instead of dalvik.
