THE NETWORK BARS !!!!
Though I'm I'm not in U.S or using Verizon network, the signal still works and catches Airtel India'. But it won't show the bars!!
Can anyone help??

You mean there is no icon in the statusbar displaying signal strength? I'm using latest CM11 nightly (18.12) and don't have the problem, haven't had it ever btw. I'm on the xt910 though.

I had installed CM11 in another ROM slot, but even that didn't show any bars.

Also,
I know that I don't have the latest CM11, but is there any way I can update the ROM without flashing the ROM, installing all my apps all over again and re-doing all my settings?

Moto X Camera
Also,
I read in few of the forums, that they have installed Moto X Camera, does anyone know how to do it??
Ok. Funny thing happened here.. Before I was thinking about doing a dirty flash, I don't know, out of the blue, a network bar appeared. Just one bar, in an area where I usually get full service.
I moved around, still, same one bar. In the event of something good to happen, still I went ahead and flashed my phone.
Now, again I've no bars even though, I am sitting at the same spot where it was displaying the bars. :what:
Now, a new problem has arose, the sms is not working. Don't know whether it was working below, but it's not working now. Can receive sms but can't send one.

Hi guys,
I use AOKP Jellybean builds and have the latest one. I noticed that my GPS almost never gets a lock anymore, so I'm doing a complete wipe and reflash, but as I was doing this, I came across
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1361393
I downloaded the top modem and I was going to install it but was wondering if there was a specific one that works 'best' for the Orange County / LA area? If I'm understanding this correctly, the right modem would help with GPS lock, or am I completely off here?
Also, when flashing a modem do I just put the zip file on the phone, just like a rom, then install from zip? Or are there special instructions? I did a little bit of searching (or else my question would've been even more vague haha!). Thanks for help in advance!
There used to be a map but it got messed up. There might be a pin in your area but most likely not

The link to the modems for AOSP based ROMs is at the bottom of the first post in that thread. Just flash one of those over yours.
I've been using KJ4 for some time. Seems to work ok. I'm in Orange County.
I've used both LE5 and KH7 in the Riverside area, and both seem to be pretty good.
Thanks, I do use AOKP but it seems they do not have a Jellybean modem, will the others still work?

Yes.
Thanks!
They seem to work but not as well as JB ones. Notice that I can lock on to satellites with other JB roms much quicker so I had to leave AOKP.
Like which? The AOKP modems for ICS did not work for me, it just said gps signal lost. I'm trying out the one recommended above for orange county, seems ok
Bad news, all modems I've tried end up with the "GPS Signal lost" message, if they even grab a signal at all.
Do I have to leave AOKP to fix this?

Recommended ROM for AOKP 4.2.1
I flashed my ROM to AOKP 4.2.1 and my reception seems to be terrible. I suspect it is that the ROM has a different modem. How to I flash back to the modem I had previously? Is it just like flashing the ROM through CWM?

Are you speaking from experience? I do not understand how a sim card would matter. If I need to put in a new sim card, will any arbitrary card from my carrier do or does it need to be a specific to LTE or 4G or some other requirement?

I was a bit surprised too. At first, I found that reseating my original sim card worked, but then when I reseated again I would lose gps signal quickly. I went to AT&T and asked them to swap the sim just for the heck of it, and sure enough it's worked 2-3 times now, no problem. Could be the way it was seated, who knows

See how it goes, you should be able to tell right away usually. If you have an AT&T nearby, you could also try swapping it out for another sim
Hi there, probably this is just a dumb question but I'm having this issue on my SGS2:
When I turn on a connection (3G or WiFi) my signal bars are blue and everything works fine (Google services too), but if I have no connection enabled my signal bars stay all grey and none is white, I mean I can't see the gsm signal level. On the countrary, if I expand the notification drawer, the icon that show the signal level works fine and displays the white bars.
So the problem is not that I can't get the blue bars, but that I can't get the white ones!

After the installation I restored my Titanium backups, could it be possible that this "restored" the issue too?
jellybam is going out of the business, try another ROM after a clean install and that issue will go away.

If you read the thread,you would have known that root is disabled by default in SlimKat.
You have to go in Developer Settings and allow root.
However, Slim's root implementation is kind of ****ty, so I always end up having to flash supersu when using that rom.

yeah i noticed it says that at the begining i dont know how i missed that but its good to know how to fix that but that doesnt fix my rebooting problem. any ideas on that?
I had CodeFire on my DNA for about a month. All was running well. I just installed whatever was current around 2/23 and never installed a nightly update. Last week, I started having problems texting. I thought the ROM was going belly up on me. So I flashed SlimKat. I still cannot text without cycling Airplane Mode in between each. Alternatively, I can wait about an hour to sent a subsequent test message after a successful one.
I just re-flashed the latest radio hoping that would fix it. I'm at a loss. Do I need to call VZW and have them do something on their end?

The kit kat roms are ported. There are several issues with them that cannot be "fixed" until the source code is released. If the phone does not respond to any commands including trying to boot.... leave it on a factory charger for 24 hours. Then try to work with it

What do you mean by "phone is dead"? Completely non responsive or no signal. I've been on cfx since I ported it over with no issues besides the random signal drop here and there. But that's maybe a few times per week and happens to me on all ROMs. What do you wipe when flashing a new ROM? Have you tried a RUU?

Dead as in Roaming again. My apologies for the exaggeration. I'm a bit frustrated here. I cannot seem to win with this thing. I hated my Thunderbolt at the end, but at least it worked. RUU brings back mobile data and texting. I've tried CM 10.2 several times. Each time, it gets stuck in roaming. I cannot change the NV setting. Changing it, then checking it again and it's right back. I've tried flashing with the SIM in. With it out. I've cycled Airplane mode a few times. Rebooted. Installed GApps. Rebooted. Cycled Airplane mode. I'm missing something. Apparently.
I just want a phone without Sense or the Verizon crap. CFX was awesome until this texting issue.

Have you considered hardware issues? If it was a ROM issue it wouldn't be a one person issue. Or provide a log of what's happening when you send SMS. You're just not giving us much to go by, except what's not working. Are you doing full wipes between flashing roms, or just cache or factory resets?

Full Wipes between flashes.
I've had this phone for about two months. I initially had issues flashing CM and being stuck in roaming. No CM ROM I attempt to flash will work. They always end up stuck in roaming. I think the problem is that I can't switch from NV. When I change it, it always goes right back. Not sure what's up there.
I just flashed ★ ☆ [ROM/RADIO][4.2.2] Stock 3.06.605.4 | Rooted | Odex-Deodex | Sense5 And now SMS works, but I'm stuck in 3G.
I hadn't considered hardware only because with each ROM, the previously broken feature works, but then something new pops up.
With one, I can text, but am in 3G. With another, I've got 4G but can't text without cycling Airplane mode.
I sincerely apologies for coming off as a d!ck. I've nothing to contribute to the community but my bug reports and money. It's frustrating to see how quickly some phones are abandoned, though.
I've always been thankful for everyone's help and tried to offer bug reports and donations where applicable.
I just want my phone to work, with a plain vanilla OS and tethering. I don't need Sense. I don't need fancy mods. Just a phone that works.
Please accept my apology, and thanks again for the help.

Have you considered the fact that the recovery itself is causing your issues? I would give TWRP a try to see if there are differences. TWRP is a must to flash KitKat roms and the version used is critical.

Nope. I didn't consider that. Because most of my problems were with CM 10.2.1. Which is JB, correct?
That being said, I've tried both CW and TWRP to no avail. After being stuck in 3G for two days across multiple ROMs, I'm convinced the hardware went belly-up.

Santod has a process to recover the unit from the conditions you describe. It is fairly simple and doesn't appear to require much time.

This is bizarre. Either I'm doing something wrong, or... I don't know. SMS works on a stock ROM but not on a custom ROM, with a new phone, with a new SIM.
I think you are doing something wrong.
RUU the latest firmware, factory reset, wipe data, cache, and system, install a ROM and DO NOT restore anything.
I think youre not completely wiping and/or are restoring things.
Here is my situation. I cannot make any calls. It sits on dialing then eventually just "hangs up". If someone calls me it goes straight to voice mail like it would do if it was turned off. I often get no network errors also. Data and sms work like normal.
Here is what I have done.
Called Verizon. Got a new sim. No change.
Reflashed back to stock 4.1.1 in Odin. No change.
flashed mj9 radio in Odin. No change.
Rooted and unlocked usually casual. No change.
Flashed alliance 26. No change.
I have cleared data in the phone app in settings.
Mobile network shows as cdma/lte. Access Point is vzwinternet. I have pulled the sim and let it sit for a few minutes. I have pulled the sim and powered on, then powered off and put the sim back in. That is what I have found from searching Google and it doesn't work.
I'm going to call Verizon again. I want them to reset everything associated with my number.
In the meantine, does anyone have any suggestions?

Unlocked bootloader and VRUEMJ9
I am in nearly the same position. I currently have a Service State of "Out of Service" and Mobile network state of "Disconnected". Occasionally it will show connected and I will receive emails. I cannot make or receive calls, I cannot send or receive texts. My phone shows connected to Verizon and LTE, imei showing correctly, as is the serial number. Currently on baseband i605 VRUEMJ9 and recovery is TWRP 2.7.0.0. I have flashed many roms to the phone, but this problem occurred when flashing slimrom 4.4.2. I backed up with Nandroid prior to flashing and when the problem surfaced I tried to restore in TWRP, but it won't correct the problem. I was on CM 10.1.3 prior to trying to move to 4.4.2 and that is what my backup is of(CM10.1.3). Currently I have gone down to Slim rom 4.3 build 2.1 as it seems to be the most stable and results in the most things working. My first question to the community is, I thought i605 VRUEMJ9 baseband had a LOCKED bootloader? How is it that I have custom recovery, have installed at least 3 different roms, etc? I bought the phone 2nd hand and this is the way it came to me. The level of complexity on Note 2 is far and away worse than S3. If anyone has any ideas on what is corrupted(EFS or what) and what my best course of action should be to preserve my unlocked bootloader and root and ability to flash custom roms. Is it possible since my bootloader "appears" to be unlocked that I could flash a different radio(baseband) replacing the problematic VRUEMJ9? Every tutorial on repairing situations like these seem to point you in the direction of going back to 100% stock which isn't something I'm willing to try at this point given I currently have an unlocked bootloader.
I have changed out the sim, spoken to Verizon who have reset everything on the account. I think it's time to replace the phone and sell this one to someone who wants to take it to a MVNO.

I'm going to call Verizon again. I want them to reset everything associated with my number.
In the meantine, does anyone have any suggestions?

For ****s and giggles this weird method fixed texting for several of us that was broke even a Odin the trying everything under the sun. Let me know if some whack chance it works.

1.) Wipe everything raw
2.) Flash 4.4.2 TW Wip Build 1 and flash SuperSU 1.93
3.) Boot up and try to send a few texts. They will fail everytime as texting is broke in this build (but this is how the magic happens)
4.) Reboot, maybe try and send a few more texts again (again they will fail)
5.) Reboot into recovery and wipe everything raw
6.) Flash latest CM11 or any other AOSP rom
7.) Reboot and Profit!

I am in nearly the same position. I currently have a Service State of "Out of Service" and Mobile network state of "Disconnected". Occasionally it will show connected and I will receive emails. I cannot make or receive calls, I cannot send or receive texts. My phone shows connected to Verizon and LTE, imei showing correctly, as is the serial number. Currently on baseband i605 VRUEMJ9 and recovery is TWRP 2.7.0.0. I have flashed many roms to the phone, but this problem occurred when flashing slimrom 4.4.2. I backed up with Nandroid prior to flashing and when the problem surfaced I tried to restore in TWRP, but it won't correct the problem. I was on CM 10.1.3 prior to trying to move to 4.4.2 and that is what my backup is of(CM10.1.3). Currently I have gone down to Slim rom 4.3 build 2.1 as it seems to be the most stable and results in the most things working. My first question to the community is, I thought i605 VRUEMJ9 baseband had a LOCKED bootloader? How is it that I have custom recovery, have installed at least 3 different roms, etc? I bought the phone 2nd hand and this is the way it came to me. The level of complexity on Note 2 is far and away worse than S3. If anyone has any ideas on what is corrupted(EFS or what) and what my best course of action should be to preserve my unlocked bootloader and root and ability to flash custom roms. Is it possible since my bootloader "appears" to be unlocked that I could flash a different radio(baseband) replacing the problematic VRUEMJ9? Every tutorial on repairing situations like these seem to point you in the direction of going back to 100% stock which isn't something I'm willing to try at this point given I currently have an unlocked bootloader.
I have changed out the sim, spoken to Verizon who have reset everything on the account. I think it's time to replace the phone and sell this one to someone who wants to take it to a MVNO.

Ok, if I'm fully unlocked can I replace the radio/baseband? Which one should I switch to? I am not digging having i605 VRUEMJ9 on the phone and I think it would be safer to have one of the better basebands....

Didn't work. Mobile network not available error. I really don't understand why it make calls. If data and sms didn't work it would make more sense.

Did you try a different phone to see if it works?

No. Verizon said it's a network error. They are sending out a technician to check things in the area. I don't have a lot of faith in that one though. If I put the sim in my wife's phone......I can just swap them back and everything will be normal again right? I don't need to call verizon or anything to do it?

You have to call or setup online it's a pain in the ass. It never worked for me by just swapping.

I thought I would give you an update since you are heavy aosp user. I was thinking about how this happened. I installed slim ROM and suddenly I couldn't make calls.
So today I thought I would try an aosp ROM just to give it a shot. I installed slim and magically I could make calls. I have no idea why it worked.
I wonder if slim uses some sort of different coding? I am gonna backup and try a TW ROM to see it that works now too.

So so weird. But can't say I'm surprised. I could text for months on just tw roms and never on aosp. You can make calls on aosp but not tw. Just laughing to myself. It's not funny but I I'm laughing because I know the frustration your going through. Let me know if tw now works and good luck buddy.

Works perfect. It's really bizarre. Either flashing slim reset something or Verizon fixed the network problem. Just glad it's fixed. Thanks for all the help!!

Which aosp ROM did you try to get it to work? I'm still having the same problem.

Slim is what I flashed. Verizon did say there was a network problem. . Not sure which one it was that fixed it.

I'm having a same issue here.
I got a locked MJ9, and it has terrible signal with all three major carriers (AT&T, VERIZON, TMOBILE).
I upgraded to ND7, and have the same problem.
When the phone goes to sleep, it looks like the antennae goes to sleep as well.
So the phone doesn't even receive the phone calls.
Only when I initiate a phone call once, it starts receiving the call.
Has anyone have success with any particular rom? As you can see, my only options are stock roms since I have locked bootloader.
