Hi guys,
I'm having a very weird issue with the latest omni rom nightly (http://dl.omnirom.org/i9100/omni-4.4.3-20140618-i9100-NIGHTLY.zip).
I'm loosing signal every couple of seconds (see attached screenshots).
Before using this 4.4.3 Omni rom build I was using a 4.4.2 Omni rom build (released in May 2014).
Before installing this 4.4.3 Omni rom I have done a full wipe (cache/dalvic/data/system).
Because of this connectivity issue, I'm experiencing a battery drain that consumes my battery in 5 hours (even using Greenify).
I'm fully rooted using SuperSu v2.
I would like to use a 4.4.3 rom without this issue (if possible).
Ps: I've been using Omni for a very long time and I like it a lot. I've heard CM11 for SG2 is not that stable yet and there some battery drain issues and also an issue with the camera. Nos sure if I should give it a try.
Thanks in advance,
Roberto.
Do you have your imei and baseband intact?

Thanks for your quick reply.
Your idea help me to find something very strange on my phone.
Please check the attached scheenshots. Compare than and you will see what is going on when I lose signal.
Also, it's strange that this rom cannot recognize my number from the SIM card.
I have another smartphone for testing (Moto X) and I can load my SIM card in there and see my IMEI and all the information that is stored in the SIM card.
Thanks once again for your time and help!

Well, I think this is the issue I'm facing: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/signal-dropping-constantly-t1776211/page4
I'm happy I'm not the only one!
Not sure if changing the modem would help. I have check APN, changing from auto select network operator to manually selected, selecting only 2G network, nothing has worked so far.
I have also posted that link as I was facing the same issue few days back. in my case, it was waterlogged mainboard which I had to get replaced.
Anyways, you can try flashing different modems, not sure whether it will help or not but there is nothing much we can do in this case.
Maybe at the hardware side, your antenna module is not functioning properly. Get that checked too if nothing else works.

Funny thing was that I flashed an old Omni 4.4.2 build (February 2014) and after a couple of reboots it seems to be working fine...
I can't tell if it was the modem or something else... now I'm using exactly the same modem version (I9100XXLS8) as before but on this old build it just works perfect...
I've seen the Omni guys are about to introduce 4.4.4 on the next build. I will wait a few weeks before giving it a try...

i am surprised to see that a rom has fixed this issue. Awesome. I would keep an eye on it though if I were you.

You should have seen my happy face when I saw my phone working again!
I have replied on the omnirom 4.4.X thread for SG2 as I would like to know if somebody else has experienced this with the latest builds.
I investigated a bit and it seems modems do not come with builds. However, there might be something in that 4.4.3 build that the modem didn't like.
I'm wondering if I would experience the same once 4.4.4 is released by Omni.
Time will tell...
I just got an S4, and it seems like the I545VRUFNG6 model is quite new, correct?
I've rooted it, but can anyone confirm that there are no custom kernals,ROMs, or recoveries for this model yet, right? I guess I'll have to wait until they are developed? If there are ROMs and kernals for this model, could someone point me in the right direction? I can't seem to find any.
Thanks
There are no custom recoveries and you should stick with the stock kernel only. If you are rooted, then try and install Safestrap and pick a ROM to try out. Make sure to backup your stock slot first if you decide to use it.

I do have safestrap 3.75, it works, but I can't find any ROMs that work
I downgraded to NC5, and still I can't get any ROMs to work properly.

There seems to be problems with the wifi, and also some ROMs, after turning on, an error box would pop up saying something like android.process has stopped, and won't go away, etc. I've been trying to fix a SIM car problem, as I've posted in another thread, but I'm thinking it must be a hardware problem...But it's unrelated to the SIM card reader, because I've tried replacing that twice now. Oh well, guess it's the motherboard.
Use giglie's wifi fix and that will get the wifi working. Which rom is giving you the fc's?
So I've been on a slim-stock rooted ROM (I believe this one) of OB1 variety (Lollipop 5.0) and figured why the hell not update to the newest 5.1.1 base since I've been back into phone stuff trying to get my dad's new T-Mo S4 all freshly rooted and updated .
I was thinking of installing this OJ4 (5.1.1) ROM but then noticed that the current modem/kernel/stock .tar files in this wonder thread here say NH4 is the newest version and there's no mention of neither OJ4 nor OB1...which made me have an utter "WTF" moment. Why doesn't that list have either of them on there? My phone's current baseband/moden is OB1, which is what one'd expect from a OB1 ROM without its modem separately updated...but why are NEITHER of them in that list??
Someone please tell me I'm not the only one who finds that downright strange or could help shed light on this mystery, thanks!
TL;DR= Trying to update to OJ4 (5.1.1) and not sure if I have to THEN update everything I can to NH4 after the fact.
Bump, anybody?

Probably because that thread has not been updated.
Here is the official firmware update list from T-Mobile for the S5. You can search for custom builds of those if you like.

Thanks okay. There's a reason they coined the phrase "brain fart". Sometimes something so simple evades you!
Now that we all have unlocked bootloaders with "developer edition conversion" on our Verizon note edge, we got root and everything ...But no roms or that good developer stuff I know there's people out there with the skills required to make this Phone great again...we just gotta find em...in the meantime though...post all the things you know are flash able on our notes, ROMs, kernels ?
you are right
That would be awesome if there was more development for it.
I flashed this a little while ago, it worked-ish, but I wasn't a big fan of it and went back to stock. Just note that *some* other ROMS *may* work

edit: at least, I think it was that one... Dude has a lot of ROMS, but I remember it was tekxodus and a Note 4 port.

I just flashed that ROM...liked the concept but I honestly wish it didn't have all those extra things that ruin the stock look...like the notification bar and the super low dpi on the home screen, thanks man I'll be trying all sorts of Roms from other threads and update you guys on how it goes
I'm hoping some development happens on this phone too. So much potential for cool ROMs. Anyone want to start a bounty?

I gave this a go but instead of using the Kernel supplied in the thread, I used the one from the verizon marshmallow unlock thread.
It booted (took a good 5mns to boot), has 4G, and I'm going through the setup right now.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-edge/general/dr-keton-m5-marshmallow-s7-note-5-t-t3422177
It's a N5/S7 port, so no Edge apps, but the S7 People/App Stripe is there
Edit: Fully booted and rooted. Working pretty good.
Edit again: It does have Edge Apps. The S7 Edge apps work

hey i flashed the KEtan rom and it works perfect , but no GSM support , did you get yours to work
right now it says imie and baseband unknown
help ? :laugh:
I'm looking to get started with porting Roms to this phone. I have thoroughly enjoyed the stock features, but I miss the ability to change to something else whenever I feel like it. I know that it may take me awhile but I'm going to give it a shot.

I ended up ditching it and going back to stock because of issues with connectivity. Never could get it to behave right.
Hey guys I just bought a verizon note edge. Did I hear that correctly?!! Unlocked Bootloader, and root? I really hope so. Please confirm, and a point in the right direction would be appreciated. Thank u.

reflash your stock tar in odin and go through the bootloader unlock again and try another that way. as long as you can get your phone into download mode it is never really hard bricked.... usually... sometimes....
Hey guys don't want to jump ahead of the gun on this one, but want to let you know I am downloading 4 marshmallow roms that should work on our devices, and tomorrow I am going to load them on my rom machine and see if I can decompile them and get them going for note edge using our boot.img and the custom kernel posted in the marshmallow unlock theead.
I don't promise anything, and I can't upload them when I'm done cause I haven't gotten permission from the original devs, I don't want to waste their time just in case it doesn't work, one of which is completely free of all touch wiz related material and has xposed running on the MM os. Pretty big deal considering how xposed likes to kill samsung devices running 6.0
More info tomorrow after I test it a bit, for now good night all.
I just picked up a mint condition Note Edge (915V). Id like to start working on a ROM for it, but it would be nice to have a base to work with. Anybody have a flashable stock Marshmallow (CPD1) ROM that's 100% untouched (deodexed preferred). Still has all its bloat.
I used to make a ROM this way for the Droid 3, but that was a little easier than it is now. Id like to help out the lacking development for the Note Edge.

Anybody willing to test PAC ROM 6.0.1?
I have been making ROMs for the N915F and N915T, and, by God's grace, they have been working.
I do not own a N915V, so I need some testers, if anyone is willing. Here is a link to download PAC 6.0.1 made for CDMA phones:
https://www.mediafire.com/download/7he853zinf6x3f7
You may need a data fix zip from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/marshmallow-6-0-1-ports-data-fixes-t3379978
You will need the unlocked bootloader.
I *think* you will need to be on a 5.1.1 bootloader and modem, but you can try on 6.0.1 also. You will need TWRP, preferably 3.0 and later, although cwm may work too, and this may or may not work. I am pretty sure it will boot, because of a tester I am working with, but the more testers the better. I need actual details, like what modem/bootloader you are using, if it did or did not boot, install, work, etc. Screenshots help me visualize what you are talking about. Etc.
If it works, we can make more ROMs.
I can't tonight, but maybe tomorrow. Still testing my next ROM version for my 915V

Did anything ever happen here? I would love this.
Folks,
I need help in a big way. I rooted my s9+ International several months ago and had the Renovate Ice Rom on it. It was working fine but I wanted to try out a different rom. The title of my post says it all. Since loading the other rom I have not been able to get it to recognize my T-Mo sim card (tried a new one also) to make/receive calls or texts. I can access the internet just fine. I've done everything that I could think of from doing a factory reset several times to flashing the original stock rom several times, trying 2 internet services in an attempt to "unlock" it. T-Mo is obviously no help and even after flashing the stock rom twice, I sent it to Samsung Singapore thinking that they could help but they want to charge $400 to put in a new motherboard which I declined. It's on it's way back to me.
Any and all suggestions will be greatly welcomed as I've reverted to using my LG V20 for the time being. I paid $1,000 for the s9+! This is the 1st time in years of flashing rom's that I've had this issue and may never flash another rom again due to this.
Help......please.

I looked through his entire thread, even saw some of your postings and couldn't find any mention of my issue. Mind pointing me to the exact place in his tread? Btw, I had his software on my phone prior to this coming up and it worked perfectly.
I'd appreciate it.
Flash the devbase rom. You most likely flashed the detonator mod and that can mess with returning to stock. Also follow the advice others gave and look in tek's thread. Easy solution for me when this happened was to clean flash devbase and go from there.

I'm currently on the stock rom after 2 factory resets then flashing the stock rom twice. I did have tek's mod on it "prior" to the above. Wouldn't all of the above have wiped his mod off the phone completely leaving nothing to uninstall?
I've done nothing to it since all of the above so supposedly it's a clean phone at this point. So based on that info., what would you suggest?
AND, thank you for the response as perhaps you and ddloco are on the right track....

Wiping doesn't eliminate it. You have to properly restore or flash with a rom that overwrites the mod.

Flashing devbase rom has fixed it for me previously. After you flash it make a nandroid and save it in a safe place.

As you're vouching for his rom, I'll root and install twrp again and flash his rom. Did you flash tek's mod afterwards as well if you're still on T-Mobile?
I'll get my phone back from Samsung Singapore this week and give it a shot. If it works, how do I get a "donation" to you?
Either way, thanks again for the help.
I can vouch for his rom cause I've run every one of them. If your getting it back from Samsung see if it works fine first. I don't need any donations. Give it to a charity of your choosing if you want. Yes I'm running teks mod on TMobile now. Having volte is a godsend on TMobile as I get to many dropped calls on 2g and hspa.

Samsung told me that they would have to charge me $400 to replace the motherboard (yes you read that right) as a fix which I obviously declined. As soon as it's back, I'll try starting from scratch again via rooting, etc. as you've confirmed about. And I'll let you know 1 way or the other as to the outcome.
Your time is definitely appreciated.... Sabresfan.
