Was on CM10 WiFi and reception was a problem and was getting dropped. Flash STOCK ROM then flashed back CM10 to see if it would fix things and NO. Now I'm back on STOCK ROM and EVERYTHING works PERFECTLY and running smooth with ME's Kernel. Anyone have similar issues? I really like CM but don't want to flash all similar CM10ish ROMs to find out WiFi is Borked. How come only some have select or problems with reception and WiFi? Its not like I flashed other radios. I'm still on JB radio. Just frustrating

I just flashed everything on Liquids page for the Thunderbolt Gingerbread 3.0 because after reading lots of comments, people seemed to think it was a good build.
I flashed the rom, then Imoseyon lean kernel, then the MR2 radio linked there.
After doing this I went from full bars and 4g to one bar and really slow 3g.
Using the app Phone Info to try and turn on my 4g radio didn't work because there is no listing for a 4g radio. In fact I now have options for GSM radios and one unknown listing.
Can anyone help me get my full signal strength and 4g back please?
I searched a ton for a couple hours now and couldn't find anything posted that would help me.
baseband version 1.48.00.0906w_1, 0.01.78.0906w_2
The radio is the newest radio just release by VZ. Sounds like you are running an AOSP rom if you are having the option as i had this happen to me once. Try setting it to the unknown setting. Maybe that rom won't work out well for you. Or you could try a sense based and possibly have better results. I would personally start off with flashing an alternate gingerbread radio, then maybe try a different rom. Also might want to have a rom booting up before you try a kernel, that too could be a problem. You did a lot at once so it's kinda hard to pin point the problem.
Ok, I will try another radio from the big list that is stickied.
Setting my phone to unknown just makes my phone lose all signal reception; the bars disappear.
None of the linked radios are working I guess I will try Cyanogenmod...
If you can get cm working using a gingerbread radio and default kernel, i would keep that radio and try liquids rom again not updating the kernel at first. Then if you get satisfactory speeds, etc, backup that, then mess with the kernel. Do it step by step until it works, or you find the problem. One thought, did you have the radio set to cdma only on the last sense rom you tried, or did you have it set to cdma+lte. Along time ago i forgot to reset it from cdma only and couldn't connect to lte on a AOSP till i changed it back.
Hrm, I don't remember exactly what the setting was on my stock Sense ROM. I did like to turn off 4g though to save battery.
I just tried Cyanogen and while it loaded fine, and replaced the kernel, it gave me the same radio problems. I flashed to the radio recommended on the CM7 page.
So should I flash a stock sense rom, enable 4g, then try Cyanogen or Liquids?
I just flashed [ROM][6/30/2011]2.01.605.0- Basic Debloat v2.1.1 and didn't change the radios from the newest GB listing and I regained my 4g and signal strength.
I wonder what is up with my phone and CM7 and Liquid both not able to use 4g?
At least I feel calmer now. I was kinda freaking out there for a little bit...
Did you try CM7 with the stock kernel? Or did you replace it right away? Maybe try a different IMO kernal, a slightly older AOSP to see if it works.
Well, CM7 listed a different kernel than what I had previously installed, so i left it alone.
When I flash to a Sense ROM, everything works fine. AOSP ROMS are giving me trouble when I switch from an "unknown" LTE radio to CDMA in phone info. I immediately lose signal and the radio pretty much is fubar'd.
If i set my phone to 4g in a Sense ROM, then goto CM7 or LGB, it works fine until I try to change the radio. I guess i just need to leave the radio alone in AOSP's.
I am trying out some different ROMS to find the best one that works for me....
I REALLY like LGB though, even with the finicky radio. Perhaps leaving the 4g radio on will be ok for battery life.... I would just really like to get the better part of a day out of it with moderate usage.
Thanks for the replies man, I appreciate it.
I have been reading through various thread regarding ICS ROM and GPS. Conclusion is that ... it doesn't work very well or when it does it's very temperamental.
Anyone has a suggestion as to which ICS ROM has the best working GPS (even if it's buggy)?
Passion or Euphoria for sure!

As he said. Euphoria was launched yesterday, so far, no complaints on GPS
The new CM9 official builds are far and away better than anything else for the Vibrant based on my personal experience. There was always a bit of lag in the other ICS roms that I couldn't stand, and made it so I had to go back to GB, but after taking the leap on the new CM9 16B, I'm in love...

Where are you getting the official CM9 builds from?
I agree with Bruce, you can never really go wrong with CM builds. I have had several different CM Rom's on my other phones and I have never had any issues with bugs or stability.
CM9 build I am following is here.

Currently running Passion and GPS is working since Kiss 2.2 kernal update.

Is the vibrant GPS pretty solid with CM? I'd always thought that my vibrants GPS poor performace was due to bad hardware.
Have you used it with any path tracking apps such as trackmaster similar that record your path/speed?
I am currently using ICS Passion v13.1 with ICS Kiss v5.1 Kernel. GPS is temperamental. I find that if the GPS symbol on my status bar doesn't show up or if my navigation isn't getting a lock, rebooting my phone sometimes does the trick. Prior to flashing and all I had my phone switched out twice by tmobile. I deff have a have device that I received after oct 2010 so I never thought about doing the hardware gps fix. I used Axura which is based on Froyo JK2/JK6 and the GPS on there worked. I eventually flashed to ICS as Axura got really sluggish and annoying.
Go with ICS passion or euphoria. I haven't tried out euphoria yet but I like passion so far.
UPDATE
I got my gps to work and here is what I did.
I had the kernel that comes with ICS Passion v13.1 and replaced it with kiss v5.1. That didn't fix it. So i replaced the kernel with icy glitch v14 6B. That didn't work. Lastly (and it did the trick), I tried this fix http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1370910 and it works. So i am happy now with my passion....
However, there is very little or very spread out information about ICS passion vs euphoria comparisons.
can somebody elaborate on the differences and their opinions? I might start a new post based on this question.
Ever since I flashed from gingerbread to ICS my wifi has been ranged from just barely working to not working at all. 3G works for the most part but when I'm home I'd much rather be on wifi. Anyone else experience this? Is it possible there is something wrong with my phones wifi? And do you think going back to 2.3 might fix my problem? Thanks.
Could be the rom you're on. I would suggest flashing another ICS rom. Try Slim or Euphoria.
I'm new to rooting and running custom roms. Has anyone tried any of the latest version of CyanogenMod 10 for the evo lte. Is it stable is it fully functioning. Sorry for the noobness but we all start somewhere. Thanks
I have been running it all day, I don't know the differences from the previous nightlies, probably the same tiny bugs. I haven't played around with it too much.
I have always been curious as to what the differences are between the MANY JB ROMS we have here. They all have the same problems...
I've been using codefire cm10 JB ROM now for around 3 weeks it seems to me that everything is working fine so far. you should try it out I haven't had any problems yet... I'm going to stick with it

Ive been using the CMX CM10 JELLYBEAN ROM as my daily driver for the last six weeks and it is great. Personally i think the bugs are totally minor. Nothing you cant deal with really. I liked the CodefireX tweaks. I just update the Rom using the GooManager and for some reason they changed it from NIGHTLY to EXPERIMENTAL for whatever reason. Also noticed the CMX tweak are gone from the update? dont know why. Anyone here know? otherwise the ROM is really fast and stable enough.
Am I alone here? It looks great and is speedy as hell. But after I leave the house and I'm not on wifi any longer all the problems start popping up. Terrible signal (even confirmed using OpenSignal), only hold 3G half the time and NEVER get a 4G connection in the places I always get one on a ICS ROM. Also, camera is worthless. And MMS doesn't work almost always.
I really appreciate all the work everyone puts into it. I couldn't do any of the stuff these people are doing. I've tried CM10 and ParanoidAndroid and I can't wait until they hit a stable/primetime state. Just not there yet.
But if it's just me please somebody chime in! I have done PRL and profile updates on stock ROM before flashing so I don't believe it's that. Stock ROM and Mean ROM both give me great signal/data and 4G.
right now I'm on codefire jb release date 26 plus I flashed the duocoreAOSPmod my phone is fast, and also I used the 3g uncap codefire tweak. I'm not having any 3g speed problems.
the reason why I'm still on #26 is because when I flashed the 04 nightly the WiFi will not work it just says error. So hopefully they fix that then I will update. If not I really would hate to discard codefire cause I like it a lot.

Hey guys I've ran cm11 for about a year now, and recently went back to TW stock due to BT issues on CM11. BT works great on stock. I've recently upgraded to cm12 and bt issues are better than cm11 but not as good as stock. Is this because I am running a different modem? I am on MDK bootloader, I was wondering how do i tell which radio+modem I am running. I've always had issues with MMS and Internet when my signal is less than 50%, which shouldn't be the case. I figured a updated radio might fix this?
