Are there any newer ROMs (4.2+) that can reliably handle data? I ran Hellybean 4.2 for so long, I don't know anymore...

as of my testing, Dirty Unicorns 4.3 had working data and PA 4.4 had working data as well. Haven't tried CM11, but i know for 4.3 DU was the only reliable ROM. CM11 (from Times_Inifinity) might have working data, not sure.

helly is still an amazing 4.2 rom. hell I'm running aokp ms6 (ics) right now and it seems to be the only thing that's fully satisfied me as of late.

Glad I found this little forum. I can't get data to work properly on any 4.4 Ihave tried. There is no wifi / data problems on recent DU, PA, and CM11. The problem for me on all of these is data drops. It's hard to tell it's not working and you can't tell from the signal bars in the notification bar. It just stops working and you can read Tapatalk or Play Store or Browser. You cycle data and it starts up again. I just can't live with that. I make a living with my phone and I'm just tired. I don't see people talking about it. I'm bummed I can't find a working Kit Kat.
I signed off my Fassy and went back to my Dinc2. 4.3 sucked so I want to go back to Hellybean 4.2. Is that about the best choice I have for reliability. I need something reliable and I'm tired of being jerked around. I'd be interested in any thoughts.

I run DU 4.4 with data very reliably,,, now only on occasion does it drop out,,, when it does though my 3g radio bars drop out but wi-fi will still be up,,, and a simple airplane toggle will always bring it back...
BUT yes the 4.2.2 jellybean ROMs were stable to this,,, so if you need 100% look to those
DU 4.3 was the only 4.3 with working data but as skept mentioned it too was flaky
.
I have to agree with kb8no, the recent data problems are/were very frustrating for me. Data is a deal-breaker, it's a cornerstone of any Rom. On skeptics recommendation I tried CM11 (Unjustdev, dated 20140121). I've been running it for 20 hrs. I worked today, going from WiFi at home, to 3G, 1X, back to 3G and now back home... the data hand-offs were flawless. The 1X tower I have to deal with is spotty and loses all data at times, but if I have two bars it will transmit and receive app data. My only issue is MMS, two pix sent and they haven't reached the destination. Sooo... we'll see. If I can fix the MMS, this is my Daily Driver.
Uh...check that. Phone may or may not work when needed. OMG, I'm about to rant...

Everyone of the different CM11 builds has data drops. Every time there's a new CM11 I hope against hope that the new one will have that problem fixed and each one is no different. Then I went and tried PA and same problem. That's when I sort of gave up and decided to go back to 4.2.2. Kit Kat is close but it is not whole. To be a daily drive it can't crash, has to make a telehone call, has to have data, has to have wifi, has to have a browser. It doesn't have to have ART, doesn't have to have a lot of things. /rant
Has anyone looked into where the data problem is broke or trying to trouble shoot it. It's so depressing using a nearly functional kitkat and having to go backwards to Jelly Bean. :whine:
i hate saying this (because i probably sound preachy as hell) but in my experience, the best thing for this phone is AOKP M6. there's been a link floating around in that thread with the glitch kernel, and i have to say, that is the most stable and fast experience i've ever had with this phone. and i know it's freaking ICS, which is 2 years old, and some of you will have a hard time downgrading... but if you're unsatisfied with the JB and KK offerings, that is easily my ROM of choice.

For mms you probably need to verify the system/etc/apn-conf.xml is correct.
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407571962
This is the critical and important part the XML needs
If you run on Verizon network
---------------
<apn carrier="Verizon" mcc="310" mnc="004" apn="internet" type="default,mms,dun" mmsc="http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms" protocol="IPV4V6" />
<apn carrier="Verizon Internet" mcc="310" mnc="004" apn="VZWINTERNET" type="default,dun" protocol="IPV4V6" roaming_protocol="IPV4V6" />
<apn carrier="Verizon FOTA" mcc="310" mnc="004" apn="VZWADMIN" type="fota" protocol="IPV4V6" roaming_protocol="IPV4V6" />
<apn carrier="Verizon IMS" mcc="310" mnc="004" apn="VZWIMS" type="ims" protocol="IPV4V6" roaming_protocol="IPV4V6" />
<apn carrier="Verizon CBS" mcc="310" mnc="004" apn="VZWAPP" type="cbs,mms" mmsc="http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms" protocol="IPV4V6" roaming_protocol="IPV4V6" />
----------------
You can d/l this one,,, or just extract it from a known Rom with working mms. Then move into the system/etc and fix the permissions.
Give it the ole reboot and all should be well again,,,
You may need to verify apn settings either by voice dialer "edit apn's" or an apn settings apk from the play store like "HiAPN Global", or "APN Settings Shortcut" widget
You should have the same settings as the std Verizon from the .xml file
They would look like this
And make sure to save any changes

Damn, I love the fassy forum. Quality peeps dealing with a quality device.
skeptic - s.k. spear was the last dev to get a case of beer from me. I think it was for a 4.1.2 test build.
hhp - You are a gentleman and a scholar. Thnx for the XML. Sorry to say it didn't work. I have a habit of using elixir2 to check APN and it seemed to be configured correctly... a quick *228 did not help either.
I'm beginning to think that I may have to learn code... snip and graft this phone into shape! lol

thanks man. yeah spear was a fantastic dev back in the day.. unfortunately i wasn't around when he was active as i got this phone recently (last summer, i dropped an older LG Vortex in the pool and my parents didn't feel like getting me a new phone so someone gave me a fassy and i'm quite happy with it). good on you for donating to him.

i've come up with a fix for the roaming issue on CM7 and CM9 for Electrify users. download the file attachment below. extract the file from the zip and then replace it with the current one in the /system/lib directory. then reboot. you can select between automatic and home only now! no need to restore the stock rom to fix it. this replacement file fixes it completely
there is no force roaming with this fix.
may have to test this out on sprint, see if it will allow us to connect as normal.. if it does i see no reason why not to include it as official so that electrify owners dont have to bother with extra flashes
That's very kind of you!

@shabbypenguin Let me know how this works out for you! I'm very curious if it will work on the Photon.
@roundeye1987 you only need to do it once! then you're good to go! although if you change to a new update of either rom you will need to replace the file again.
well im pleased to say that it works fine enough for what i can test for...
unfortunatly no matter what setting i change etc etc i cant get 3g in cm9 so idk if that works with it... but i know 1x and voice/sms works fine
however there may be a time that the bootloader/4g issue gets fixed, and if so then we are gunna be working non stop to get 4g working in cm. if we can pull that off then it may come to ifnd out that this ril (gunna guess is from the electrify) may not work with 4g. if thats the case then it will have to be a seperate downloadable flash again. but for now ill swap it out in my hatif i compile anything electrify owners with have this fix baked in
Excellent.. Thanks very much.

there could be a problem with 3g for photon users. glad to see it at least works for you! i do get 1x and 3g along with everything else being fully functional in terms of the radio. thanks for testing it!
Stock doesnt show 1x it pretends its 3g. To know what you really have on stock you have to look on the about phone then status. Some people are just noticing they have been on 1x and not 3g. I think it was a crappy move by sprint to lie this way.

Here is a way to fix the issue, but I dont know if you can do it on a locked phone.

This guide was from a Samsung Moment, so the code line locations might be a little different. I cant figure out how to properly edit a smali file, so I haven't been able to test it on a stock rooted photon.

Does the PRL matter with this file? When I switch automatic I can't seem to get anything better than 1x. It could be my location but I am in a heavily populated big red area.

the prl does matter. i'm assuming it's your location and the location of the roaming cell site that's making you have a 1X signal.
check out jokers results with this running on the photon.

Would it be possible to get this working on the Electrify? I am using it right now to allow roaming but I can not get it to force roaming when set to automatic. Automatic actually works as automatic and stays non roaming until I leave US Cellular towers. If there was a simple way to force roaming I would be sooo happy.
Thanks!
Im a little confused because I can go between Home and Automatic just fine on CM9 already

This feature is/has been implemented in CM9 Alpha Builds since Alpha 11. So using "adding" this to CM9(assuming your on a relatively new verison..) is a waste of time. And i think that Sprint will limit you to 1x roaming by default PRL, youll need to flash a business PRL to get 3g roaming in certain areas. For me in North Florida atleast I was unable to roam with 3g until I flashed a business PRL that allowed it.
Nope I get roaming 3g

ok so i tried the latest and greatest blaze modem that released yesterday...
my speeds practically went up 9 fold, here's the story
using saurom, and latest blaze modem
however, here's what im running in to
the latest blaze modem that was released yesterday has increased my speeds by alot
yesterday when i was on telus sgh t989 modem, i was getting about 386kbps at my house and only 2 bars of service. on top of that, at the time it seemed as though my 4g was having a bunch of micro disconnects. also my upload was around 2kbps
today i come home and try the latest blaze modem, and my download went up to 3.8mbps (decent improvement i would say in the least), no micro disconnects, double the amount of bars in reception, but my upload is around 10kbps...
10kbps takes a long time to send mms... (trying not to be whiny, but that's all i use upload for when im not on wifi)
anybody else having this issue?
Can I ask what rom you are currently on? Also have you tried on another rom?
starting to hate this captcha image verifications
anywho, i'm a bit of a noob(sorry, but i never needed to really mod anything untill i bought the galaxy note), so i will answer this to the best of my knowledge.
im on saurom, haven't tried anything else
Some things just don't make sense. I'm also on saurom and its the only rom I can get decent speeds on. Someone else in another thread said he got good speeds on the unofficial collective. I get 10Mbps on saurom and only 3Mbps on collective.
I'm trying to figure out why but it seems everyone has different input. I wonder if saurom version matters cause I run a older build 4a.
well im glad that im not the only one that feels that way (regardless of how noob i am)
i tried multiple guides, and always stuck with the easy way
so far this is basically what i have
adw and used the latest blaze modem
saurom (latest according to the post that i saw)
the build.prop.test (of courst moved the .test part, still using this) that supposedly magically enhances reception
problems i have
a) download has improved but upload is retarded
b) reception still sucks even after the build, but when my phone is at two bars, immediately when i touch it, reception doubles...??
once again, i know im a noob, but im great at following directions... i dunno is anyone else having the issues i have?
oh and oddly, whenever i try to do a speedtest, my receptions goes from 3 bars to 4 bars... (25%...really?) as soon as speed test is done, it reverts..... does this makes sense to anyone?

Wifi tests on my phone show the full 25Mbps my Internet is capable of. I would suggest u try the rom I'm on if u can find it. Saurom 4a and don't apply that build.prop you are using, it could be causing you more harm then good.
Retest and repost afterwards
ok so deleted the "aftermarket" build.prop file from my system folder, and replaced it with the original build.prop that i had
results:
reception isonly at 2 bars (20% less)
speedtest with wifi shows: 15.747 mbps
speedtest on comp: 18.87 mbps, marginal difference, understandable
speedtest on 4g: 4.854 mbps, upload is at 2.487 mbps per second, YOU SOLVED THE ISSUE, although i must admit i feel dumb for not thinking of this... you get a kudos, if you ever swing by rochester, i'll buy you a round of beer
Exactly which blaze modem did you use? I just cleared my cache and flashed the blaze telus one. Rebooted twice and did a speed test and am only getting .06 mbps and somehow 1mbps upload speed. Before with jus the telus modem i only got like 512k and never passed 1mbps. I am running latest saurom and live in a pretty decent coverage area too, i also have it set to hspa only. Any reasons why mine suck??
Glad it worked out for you. Now where did u get that build.prop file? I don't remember seeing one with a .test at the end. Was it one of tomin's?
I also had the build prop.test and ill try and replace the original one and see what happens.

Yes the buld prop.test was one of tommins.

did wonders for me, once again though you'll probably want to revert to the stock build.prop, as well as remembering to clear cache...
just to make sure i think i've covered all areas i will once again say what im running
latest saurom
stock build.prop
modem listed in above link
beats audio mod (i HIGHLY doubt this has anything to do with it)
i should mention that yes, in my previous post i only went up to 3.3 or 3.4mbps with the current setup, but that's the fastest in my area atm...
and as far as the reception issue, well honestly, quality of service and reception are two totally different things, so im not sure if what i said about reception was really worth anything
anyways this seems to have worked for me really well so far, will test for another 24 hours, if i feel anyhting is up, i'll post

I was talking with a Sprint rep the other day and mnentioned Sense 5 coming to the EVO LTE. He said it won't happen. He didn't credit any resources for his answer but I don't remember 100% what he was saying. Something about the EVO LTE not being able to handle Sense 5. I then told him it was ported to this phone and the only things that are a bit screwey (that I know of) are Blinkfeed, Bluetooth, and data connection.
Has anyone else asked or heard anything about such things? In my opinion, HTC should take out Blinkfeed and throw us a Sense 5 update.
If I recall correctly, the only issue I had while running Sense 5 was no Bluetooth. I don't remember having any Blinkfeed or connection issues. YMMV
Hopefully the Sprint rep didn't know what he was talking about

I never listen to what Sprint reps have to say when it comes to updates.

I had connection issues with every flash combination I tried. WiFi would constantly turn off and on. Data would no constantly disconnect and connect. Blinkfeed just doesn't look scaled correctly. It looks kind of gross. Lol. But hopefully we'll see something.

Did that more times than I can remember. Tried different firmwares, different radio, different wipes, superwipes, even wiped internal and external storage, installed - booted - restarted - flashed - rebooted even, lol. I've tried it all. Nothing works for me. I've tried switching from different ROM's while preforming different scenarios. I get the same result no matter what I do. But every other ROM works just fine. Even reprogramming with the ##dialer codes did nothing for me. This happened on my other EVO LTE too (this is my replacement). I'm starting to wonder if I'm Sense 5 retardant or something. Hahahaha.
Sense 5 works for me good only problem is Bluetooth and sometimes I'll have 3g issues not much though

I'd take a Sprint reps word with a grain of salt. It's obvious he doesn't know what he's talking about given the fact we have a 99.9% functioning port for our phones. Only issues I've ever had are a couple of camera functions, which the devs are aware of. I don't use Bluetooth so it's not a deal breaker for me.

I tend not to listen to them in general. Otherwise, NJ would have 4G since last December, and both my wife and I would have refurbished phones.
They claimed that her GS3 had water damaged when it wouldn't boot past the final boot screen. Fixed it by calling Samsung directly, who told me to factory reset. I then rooted and updated to avoid the "Sudden Death Syndrome" that the 16gb Sprint version of the GS3 suffers.
My phone list signal, and they couldn't figure it out (they didn't really try. He restarted the phone once, went to settings, and gave up.) I went home, flashed the newest firmware, and voila! Good as new. In both cases, I put the refurb phones back into the package and mailed them right back.
Long story short, question EVERYTHING that they tell you. You probably have more knowledge, anyway. They only sell phones to blindsided customers who Le looking at the pretty screens.

I'd have full fledged 4G right now if what they told me was true about switching from WiMax. I learned late the hard way. They always bring up the water damnage expo. I always question what Sprint says. Especially after fighting their natterially adverse changes on my account for 2 weeks. I'm sick of Sprint. **** 'em.
Sense 5 works great besides Bluetooth, burst shot, and panorama,
According to some on here this guy has a pretty good track record of being accurate. No timeline though as far as I know.

I was talking with a Sprint rep the other day and mnentioned Sense 5 coming to the EVO LTE. He said it won't happen. He didn't credit any resources for his answer but I don't remember 100% what he was saying. Something about the EVO LTE not being able to handle Sense 5. I then told him it was ported to this phone and the only things that are a bit screwey (that I know of) are Blinkfeed, Bluetooth, and data connection.
Has anyone else asked or heard anything about such things? In my opinion, HTC should take out Blinkfeed and throw us a Sense 5 update.

Every phone is different for reasons that I'll never understand. Blinkfeed and data work perfectly for me with absolutely no issues. I don't use BT at all, so our phone's Sense 5 port is pretty much flawless as far as I'm concerned.
But then I try an AOSP rom, and my phone turns into a turd. And not even one of those good turds where you don't really even have to wipe. My phone hates AOSP, and meanwhile I'm reading the forums and everyone using CM or Liquid or Carbon or etc. is just LOVING the rom and it runs great for them. Meanwhile I feel like I'm using a Froyo phone from 2010. When I go back to Sense 5, everything is better.
I dunno man. Sorry to hear it's not working as well for you.

When the Jellybean update came out and rebroke the proximity sensor on my phone I called Sprint about it. 3 stores to be exact. Every single one of them told me that Evo LTE's did not and would not have Jellybean...even though my phone was running it from the OTA.

Purchased Brand New back in November
I've had zero signal issues phones entire life on 4.3 however since upgrading to K.K it's been awful like honestly terrible. I have areas in my house now where I have zero service period, never had that problem before. Also ongoing not a one night thing.
Happens on multiple KK based roms not just one example, also tried NC2, NC4 and now back on MJE radio and signal still sucks... is anyone else experiencing this? It was fine on 4.3 then out of the blue turned to crap
Also WiFi / Bluetooth have been flawless just cell radio in general sucks now, not just 4G either I barely get 3g anymore in areas and can't even send text messages
Same here
I have been dealing with the same thing. I can't ever remember having any issues with any Verizon device in the areas that I normally travel. Since taking the update, I run into problems everywhere. Almost to the point where I want to go to a different phone.
Same. Exact. Thing. Here.

I can't remember where I found it but there is a build prop edit to tweak the radios. I did it 3 months ago and it has stuck through the kk update to nc3. Try Google samsung galaxy note 3 radio tweak or poor signal. Sorry I can't remember.

Go to this site. Download all of the radios. But I am going to say that the MJE radio will be the one that will give you back your consistent connection. You will need Odin. If you end up having any difficult time downloading any of the items off this address. I could send you everything via drive or what not. Just hit me up in a PM. I just have to figure out how to turn on PM notifications. Otherwise I will forget to check if I have any. Any way, hope this works for you. Also, to the person that posted the idea about there being some kind of tweak to the build prop, try to find that link and post it here. Reason being is that the newer radios enable the newest higher frequency bands. And allows for greater speeds. But, obviously they suck. So if I could get the newer radio and make the phone get better signal and not drop network. Than I would rather do that. As I am sure others here would as well. And assuming those others have Root on their devices. Any way, I am just rambling on. I'm off to bed. I have to go to work soon and then get home so as can drop the sub frame on my car to replace my rear motor mount.

Same exact problem. I can have 2 bars signal. Hit send for a call and watch the bars go to zero then doesn't even connect.
I've been on the MJE radio. You can find the MJE modem tar in the Verizon Note 3 Android Development section, the post is by BeansTown106.
Regardless of what people say about modems and signal, etc.. NC2 and NC4 were subpar for me. MJE is stable and I get excellent signal and data speeds.
I'll try that radio today thanks
Yes my signal is awful even with mje radio on 4.4.2 as well. time to roll back. Its like I'm on sprint network.....

I'm in the same boat and it's very frustrating I just got off a call with verizon and they wanted to put me through all of this bs to troubleshoot and reset my phone so I said no thanks and got off the phone.
I've had the same issue. I'm currently on JasmineROM1.5
Here's what I did and it fixed the issue for me. Go to Settings/more settings/mobile networks/network mode. Mine said Global. Change it to what I have in the pic. Reboot. Mine is good to go now.

I have noticed a difference between how KitKat and Jelly Bean handle radios. In 4.3, the phone would quickly get a mobile data connection (i.e. working data, as shown by the solid white 1X/3G/4G symbol in the status bar) on any network type and even at very low signals. Since KitKat, the phone does not want to connect to data on 3G as much or 1X most of the time. It will just stay there with the connection type grayed out (indicating no data) even though the signal could be 3 bars.
As I had only upgraded to NC2, the phone is back on MJE and will likely remain there unless what is after KK doesn't break more stuff (like VPN, which is still broken on Samsung devices). After rolling back to MJE I can confirm that radio performance is equally bad (or good) as before I updated to KK.
The GF is using my Note 3 and works in a very low signal area (flips between an unusable 1 bar of 3G, 1-2 bars of 1X, and no signal). Other devices like Moto phones and the 5S get 1 bar of LTE there or 3 bars of 3G, and there are people even tethering away. She can't call, send/receive texts, or do anything else so it is useless at work.
Hey guys thank you for all the replys and I will definitely take a look at the responses more in depth when I have a moment.
Just some things I've noticed
It's not just me, apparently there is a lot of feedback of others with the same issue
I HAVE swapped modem files specifically all while staying on a KK based rom I've tried NC2 NC4 and now MJE radio and they all suck when using the KK software even though the MJE radio was fine on 4.3 for me
Given that others are reporting it, I find it hard to believe that my phone is defective / hardware related and it must be something in the firmware/KK specifically
It's gotten to a point where I need to take immediate action. My wife called me this morning and I was not even notified, my phone never rang period and I have nothing in my call logs but my phone was on the entire day with, quote fingers, ""signal"" and this never happened previous. God forbid something bad happened and she is unable to reach me due to a software defect. That is a BIG deal, I didn't even know she tried to call me 4 times in a row until she got home later that night and asked why I didn't pick up, I said what do you mean? It never rang
I'm debating on going back to 4.3 as a whole until the issue is identified and resolved unless any other solutions come out... I'm all about having fun and flashing roms but when my wife can't reach me when she needs me and I get ripped a new asshole things need to stop lol
Sent from my SM-N900V using XDA Free mobile app
this is not a solution but thought i would post what happened to me.
had N3 since launch and no signal issues
upgraded to KK Stock NC2 leak and had no signal issues
upgraded to NC4 firmware to fix reboot issue for recovery etc.. and HAD signal issues - BAD "No mobile Network" where it used to work perfectly
tried MJE Radio switched back and forth and all over and had signal issues still
tried a full NAND restore and complete factory reset and still had signal issues
ordered a replacement that came with MJE and NO signal issues - worked like it was working on release date
upgraded to NC4 Jasmine rom and did the NC4 firmware upgrade again - worried i would have same results but NO signal issue
now can switch to any KK rom with my NC4 and NO signal issue
i can not explain why the NC4 upgrade killed my release date N3 signal and the replacement N3 has no issues but something has to be related to me getting a newer device is all i can guess
Just wanted to say I'm in the same boat. Since updating my signal has been abysmal and it's killing my battery. I even got a new Sim card, no change. These radios really suck.
I actually hated MJE, such a horrible radio. I'm actually running hyperdrive with MJ7 and loving the signal quality. Though I specifically use MJ7 since I had the best signal for Band 4 with it. I thought NC2 was okay, but I tried it out only for a few hours once I found out you could change radios.

This is something that has been bothering me on these boards. The definition of firmware is applied 3 ways and nobody references which way they are using the term.
Firmware seems to mean any or all of these 3 when in most cases it is firmware=bootloader/modem
1. To all of the software as a whole
2. To just the bootloader
3. To just the os, rom, distro of android
Now I have seen you here quite often and know your not a noob when it comes to this but...
You upgraded to the nc2 bootloader you would have used odin to do this.
you then odin the nc4 bootloader to fix an issue with ss (does not make much sense as you needed to wait for a new version of SS for this to be fixed...work around being reboot the phone then click recovery in the 10 second boot window)
you switched modems nothing fixed it
you then did a nand restore which would have only restored the /system, /data, /cache partitions not the /boot odin would be required to change that
It seems to me that your other phone had a bad bootloader flash.

How is Bluetooth with this ROM? I know that some other ROMs have Bluetooth dropout/crashout issue, and that the BlownFuze AOKP ROM (which I've been using for quite some time) has no issues whatsoever. I can deal with the other issues (camera, screen flicker) but really need confidence in the Bluetooth performance before I can consider switching.

perfectly understandable as for your question I don't use BT but I did manage to pair my note with my galaxy for a good 15-20 minutes so I'd say it works. no screen flickering as I included the patch into the build.prop, performance wise I can't complain haven't had any major issues while I was running it. actually you caught me at the right time was just about to give the 8/12 build of PAC a try. almost forgot to mention camera seems to be good as well. let me know if you run into any issues with any thing.

Thanks for the update. I find that BT can sometimes work for a few hours, sometimes a day or two before it gives out (on a bad ROM) - when it flakes out you have no choice but to reboot to get it back which is a pain when you're driving.

I use this ROM with 2 different Samsung BT headsets. I will occasionally receive a message that the BT service has stopped/died. Fortunately, BT continues to work after I toggle it off and back on. I haven't had to reboot yet to get it to work. The previous ROM I used before this one would regularly kill BT and require a reboot for it to begin working again.
Tried this out, Bluetooth seems to have the same issues as ever other non blown fuse ROM, namely needs reboot every third or forth pairing and often can't cycle BT on then off correctly.
Back to bf aokp .
