Turbo loses data when on the phone - Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh

I recently purchased a Droid Turbo to replace my broken BlackBerry Z10. I did the MOFO root with the tether option with 4.4.4 and every time I talk I lost my data connection. I read an article that mentioned this happening to the turbo, but it should of been fixed by now. I just got thru flashing another rooted ROM this time a 5.1 with the tether ability and still the same thing. I have noticed that with both roots the 4gLTE is white instead of blue, but I am unsure if that's the issue as Ive been running a BB for the last yr instead of a Droid. Any ideas? Has the game changed for Android rooted phones (is this normal)?
Thanks

All icons are now white ...that is no issue .. but there could be that these roms have bugs with signal ....

Thanks for the info.. I think you are probably correct, but I never checked it out before installing the altered ROMS... I pulled the cell out of the box and rooted it before I ever activated it... UGGGG live and learn

You gotta call Verizon to fix this, just have them enable "Advanced HD Video Calling" on your line and the problem will go away.
There is no extra charge. It basically enables VoLTE.

That was the problem to begin with... After I enabled the HD calling everything worked like a charm... I did kinda chew some ass lol... Why should I need to enable something when the phone should already be enabled? :laugh:

You can also enable volte from the my verizon app.

g2 wifi calling apk and logcat (doesnt connect on vibrant)

This topic is for development of the Wifi apk for the vibrant. Please DO NOT discuss what wifi means to you or how excited you are about it. I am posting this in hopes that a developer can make this work.
Only comment here if you can contribute and make this work. (what i have provided is the extent of my knowledge)
The apk installs, loads, but will not connect. It gets stuck on 'enabling' and shreads the battery trying.
Perhaps the servers are just not up yet since this is so new..
UPDATE: According to TMo News, T-mobile has stated that they do not support wifi calling yet... so hopefully this app not working is just a result of no server support yet..

Took a look at it and so far its either missing a VPN module or its pointing at settings that we dont have. Right now its looping trying to connect to localhost.
This does ADB install fine, but it doesnt connect if you disable it and try to re-enable it.
Side effect, it was constantly looping trying to connect the service and wasnt very happy about uninstalling when I tried, wouldnt recommend anyone install it unless they have the settings or an idea where we can grab them from
Soon as I get the OTA ill scour for the settings. Soon as I have any updates to it ill tweet/post
Thanks Viral, scepterr says it needs a kernel module and we need source code for that
Why ADB...just hit install...running it on Froyo, I cant tell if its working or not because Tmobile DID fix my signal at my house LOL

According to TMO News, the wifi calling is not supported yet as stated by T-Mobile.
“Wi-Fi Calling and tethering Wi-Fi sharing are not currently supported on the T-Mobile G2. T-Mobile knows these features are important to consumers and we’re working to deliver them to G2 users in the future. We have nothing further to announce at this time.”
http://tinyurl.com/3yltw9a
This was one of my theories... that would be an easy and good answer for why it will not connect yet...
Looks like theres no luck on the g2 end either, its still missing some configuration or something.

Adding to think tank section of the bible for easy retrieval just in case the thread slows.
Something tells me TMo is going to wait, either for the release of the MyTouch HD or they'll release it on a bunch of phones all at once as a way to boost sales before Christmas.
Looks like G2 will have this app soon enough. I can't wait to have it on the vibrant.
http://www.tmonews.com/2010/11/t-mobile-g2-to-get-wi-fi-calling-update-starting-tomorrow/
The reason why this app isn't working is because you need a Wifi calling plan which tmobile is rolling out soon and it requires a data plan of 19.99 or higher which pretty much everyone has because the 200 mb plan has not rolled out yet.
Has anyone gotten the wifi calling G2 OTA update yet? Can you let us know if the wifi calling now works on the G2? Thanks.
Yes and it works awesome!

[Q] Droid 4 Tether Hack

I wondering if the Tether Hack using the RadioComm will work on the Droid4. I tried it, but could not get the app to detect the phone.
Also I enabled Verizon's Tether, and it seems to be giving me tether at no extra cost, I'm not sure, but the message when I activated it said, as long as you have a data play $29.95 or greater. Other wise you had to upgrade planes. Well I had the unlimited data plane so I continued with the set up, then when to Verizon to check my bill, and I don't see any additional cost as of yet. So I'm curious, is version charging to use Tether ?
Yahya
When I looked into it, the cost was supposed to be $24/mo for tethering. I just rooted mine and installed the Wifi Tether 3.1 beta 11 apk and it works fine so I would not chance attempting to use Verizon's app just because it seems likely that even if you don't get charged right off the bat, they might get wise and decide to charge you in the future.

"That behavior it does is normal. The stock app is just a modified version of the aosp built in tethering mechanism. So when AWT sets the prop that tells the system that tethering is on the stock app gets triggered. Even cm7 on thrill does this."

Sweet! Thanks for asking him. That's a big relief.
Yeah, the mobile hotspot pops up for everyone (but not always which is odd)... it will not affect your bill because VZW can't say anything if you're not using their app.
The settings that I'm using on 3.1 beta11 are as follows:
Device - Motorola Razr
Setup - Auto
Not using encryption and everything else is however it comes set.
Part of your problem is probably that you're using an older beta. Here's the link for the one I'm using (just add the Http:// because I haven't posted enough to link):

Wifi Tether 3.1 here. First thing installed post-root. Working beautifully.
Using the built in tether with the entitlement_check hack from bionic, working great
so is it free or what
My wife has the Droid 4 and I love the 4g service (up to 20mbps in my area). We use the wifi tether for our xoom. So if we use the vzw stock wifi tether app we will be charged? And if I use a 3rd party app like fox fi for instance it will b free of charge? Or can we edit the radio with Radiocom like the d3? I have my d3 changed over. And would it help if we rooted the d4?

You can say that or you could say they warned me not. The pop up warning said you can not use WiFi tethering unless you have a $29.95 data plan or greater. Well I have that plan for unlimited data. So I thought I was good.what they mean is in conjunction with there will be a $30 teather charge.

Just download a widget that shows signal strength until Hash can get it fixed. It was some code change with the Android 4.0.4 updates to CM9 and it affects all ICS builds but Hash doesn't have a GSM setup to test it so he hasn't been able to debug it.

Did hashcode remove his xt860 ics data patch from his site? I'd use that, it's the patch that says "xt860" at the top of blog.hash-of-codes.com/downloads/motorola-droid-3/cyanogenmod/ It works for every ics based rom I've tried it with. For apn settings you could try a custom apns-conf.xml with your bell and custom settings in it, couldn't you? The file is located in /system/etc/ and is easy to edit. I just put my custom apns-conf.xml on my sdcard and copy it over once after i flash, then if i have to wipe data etc there isnt any additional setup needed.

Imo better to have people using patches on the dev site/pointing out their there just incase functions/files etc change in the patch. May not be likely but ...
I'm running CM9 on my XT860 and it does work... that said, there are a few issues, it's ok for daily use for an avid early adopter such as myself, but not yet ready for prime time users.
Issues I'm battling right now:
- camera: if I switch to the front facing camera or the video camera, not only does the camera app crash, the only way to get it back at all (on the rear camera) is to reboot the phone.
- dialler: works... but as soon as you dial a number the dialler app exits, the call is still ongoing though but you have to re-open the dialler app to control it.
Everything else seems to work properly at the moment. (haven't tried bluetooth yet though)
Using my XT860 on TELUS in Canada.
I just replied to you in Hash's thread. Indeed you're using XT860 on Telus.
To solve the dialer problem you need V3 sim (newest) from Telus. 10 bucks and this nasty problem is gone. It prevents you from dialing thru conference bridges which I very often use and was very frustrated. Issue is in Motorola's baseband (radio firmware) and affects all roms including stock.

Well that is an odd issue indeed, I never would have linked that to the SIM card, but sure enough, that was it. Replaced the SIM with a v3 sim to solve.
Of course the down side is the SIM is $10, but the SIM doesn't do you any good unless they transfer your account to it which is another $25... (total $35) I got them to waive the cost of the SIM chip, but still had to pay activation.

They ripped you off. There is no fee for swapping the sim. You can do this yourself online from the self serve portal. All you need is to supply old sim number and the new one and you're done. No fee for that.

[Q] 4g/LTE/3G not working on Custom Roms

Hello XDA,
So I've purchased my 1st quad-core phone Saturday. I'm extremely happy about the phone's cosmetics and performance. Of course, being the flash-aholic that I am, I decided to beef it up!! After finially getting an AOSP rom that I felt comfortable with, I flashed and everything was great.... Until I noticed that my data stopped working. The funny thing is if I turn on airplane mode, make a call, or restart the phone the data comes on for about 2 minutes and then turns back off. After messing around with settings and such, I restored my stock rom. On the stock rom data works like it should. So I decided to try 2 other roms. One being GE and the other AOSP. Both are doing the same thing with data connectivity.
Is this a known issue? Did I do something wrong? I looked through the Q&A's and I didn't find anything. Keep in mind that I am very experienced up to full development of rooting/flashing/customizing/etc
Thanks in Advanced!!!!!
Update: T-mobile is my service provider

It's imperative that I find out if this is fixable or not as I will return the unit if it's not...

Did you try updating the radio firmware to match the ROM that you were using? Did you try another Sense ROM to see if the issue wasn't an underlying setting from a GE or AOSP ROM? Did you flash a custom Kernel? Did you match the RILs? Lots of things that you could try to isolate the issue.

Some different ROMs will use different names, like the aosp stuff uses 3g, H, H+ and LTE.

Yeah, I saw that there was some new notification feature in Samsung's messaging app, but since I use Verizon's Message+ it slipped my mind to mention it.
And before I get grief about using Verizon's app, I would just add that it is kind of nice having my SMS messages sync'ed across my desktops, tablets and phone - and not that I have anything against the Samsung native app.
I actually liked the app too but just didn't trust Verizon

Just noticed that, after this update, the "smart network switch" setting is gone.
Not sure if that means it is now always on, or if it is always off - but I know which ever way it is, it won't be able to be set the other way any more.
EDIT: Restarted my phone today, and the smart network switch is now visible in the WiFi advanced options list. I was probably wrong about it being gone in the first place, but I would swear it wasn't there when I wrote the original post.

Do you or does anyone know if this OTA update affects FoxFi Wifi Tetther? And How is Battery Drain? Someone said that Battery Drain is worse with this update? Any help is appreciated... Thanks...

The stock earbuds enable UHQA. I'm sure at this point in my life I have some level of hearing loss but I don't notice a difference with it enabled.

Right. I should have been more specific about not having any way to test the UHQA Bluetooth capabilities. On a related note, I'm thinking of trying out Samsung's noise-cancelling Level headphones. I kind of like the control interface, that allows for track previous/next selection and volume adjustment by swiping the ear-cup
I am just downloading it now. Thanks for the heads up.
With those features. I almost don't even care I don't have root.
Just wish there was better selection in the Samsung theme store for free.
I mean the selection we have on the forums here is awesome.
As far as the sound quality goes. Make sure you tune the frequencies using sound alive as well. It makes a big difference on a per user basis.
Foxfi is working without any problems. Battery life feels the same. Wifi calling working as intended.
Is anyone else noticing with this update and the previous one that there are times where the phone seemingly bogs down but then acts fine a few moments later? Feeling like I should do a factory reset, I know the phone can get wonky after updates and it's always recommended to do that, but want to get feedback first if I'm the only one experiencing this?
wtf!!!, this update completely erased everything from my phone, its as if I did a factory reset. Good thing I have most of the things backed up on the cloud....but still....the hassle....
I guess I was due for a factory reset -_-
