[JB] [4.2.2] CyanogenMod 10.1 [ROM]

[Guest Pyntux]

After 2, 3 reboots imei is 0, so I installed before rom...

[Guest wbrambley]

There was a post on the Orange list about not being able to install software onto the SPV unless it is Orange branded software?

Is this the case? If so, that single reason would prevent me from getting one...

Could try this, I can't guarantee as I have not tried it. (Not needed to)

Any success?

Did you suffer from loss of service/signal on cm10.1 before?

[Guest dalyer]

Once again to people reporting IMEI = 0 on CM10.1 after flashing the HSPA:11 thing:

[Guest dalyer]

Anyone recommend an app to back up my imei and if needed restore it? I know there is one but can't remember it or if it works on CM10.1

Any use? I'm not aware of it NOT working on CM ROMs but try it and see...

[Guest dalyer]

Is there a clear summary of the "lost signal" issue - e.g. what baseband, RIL and/or upgrade method it applies to? I've scanned most of the thread and can't see anything that clearly summarises the context (if it is even known). Apologies if I missed it!

I'm still on Stock+ R4 and find it great but am tempted to try CM10.1 again now that R3 is out. But obviously I'd prefer to avoid the lost signal issue... :-)

So you can't use it on CM10.1

[Guest dalyer]

So you can't use it on CM10.1

I assumed that the problem was that CM10.1 would only display 0s for the IMEI but otherwise it was there and was used when talking to the network but I'm not sure about that. Maybe somebody else (jsevi83?) can clarify? Bottom line is does it work for you regardless of the IMEI displaying as 0s in CM10.1?

There are reports of no phone signal on the 3 network.

For me is working with IMEI 0 on Vodafone CZ (HSPA 10). Is about hour and call and SMS work fine :)

[Guest TangerineTractor]

I had no signal related issues at all, hspa flashed ages ago, well before this rom.

[Guest KaterM]

I came from B926 (chinese U8818 Unicom ROM), which uses the HSPA:11 modem.

If I understand correctly you effectively just substitute the 2 modem partitions of a later ROM with the ones of B926...

And I never had an unusual signal loss at all.

Should be something different ...

[Guest solarmon]

Hi,

First of all - thank you very much Dazzozo for this great ROM. I have made a 'contribution' - not much, but I hope every little helps! If you need a(nother) G300 for development/testing then let me know.

I was also having the signal loss issue with my G300 phone(s) on R2 and now R3.

I flashed my phone with HSPA:11 (it was showing up as 'hspa:8' - which I believe is really meant to be HSPA:9) ) as per the link above (http://www.modaco.com/topic/361532-use-hspa11-in-any-rom/). It actually shows up as "hspa:10" and my IMEI was set to '0' - although I was still able to make a call (tested to Vodafone UK voicemail: 121).

Luckily I had previously backed up my IMEI using 5irom - as per the instructions at:

http://huaweig300.com/huawei-g300-install-a-custom-jelly-bean-ics-rom-from-scratch/backup-imei/

and was able to restore it.

I hope this will resolve the signal issue as this was the major issue I had with this brilliant ROM. Only time will tell and I will report back.

Cheers.

The signal on this ROM is bizarre it shows out of service when it has the same signal strength as when its in service, it also seems to be flicking between UMTS:3 and UMTS:10 constantly?

[Guest popoyaya]

Are you on the 3 network perchance?

[Guest Andymac1969]

Are you on the 3 network perchance?

If you look at the pictures "Orange PCS" or EE or T Mobile whatever they are calling themselves now.

[Guest lothaer]

Thank you for the 109808 support woohoo. (and yes I did like the OP #100)

Glad you solved your problem :)

Actually you not only reverted to the old IMEI but also to the old modems.

5irom backs up and restores partitions 5, 10, 11.

5 contains the IMEI

10, 11 are the modems.

Hi KaterM

You are spot on! I only looked at the IMEI value after I had restored using 5irom. I'm now back at HSPA:8 (actually HSPA:9)! How very stupid of me.

I will flash HSPA:11 again and this time only restore partition 5 to only get the IMEI restored and not the modems.

Cheers.

[Guest solarmon]

Looks like I cannot just restore partition 5. I thought I would be able to delete files 10 and 11 and 5irom would just restore 5. :(

[Guest solarmon]

Hi,

OK, it looks like I have not actually lost the IMEI - only that CM10.1 cannot read it when the HSPA:11 modem versions are used. My phone is able to make and receive calls with IMEI:0 displayed (and data connection seems to be working OK too). However, I'm not sure if it will affect any other parts of the system or apps if the IMEI cannot be read.

From: http://www.modaco.co...40#entry2105737

Somebody else had the same issue with CM10.1 in GB baseband. It's not that you lost your imei, only that for some reason the rom cannot read it. If you install another rom you will see that you still have your IMEI. The zip to install HSPA:11 only touches partitions 10 and 11, and IMEI is partition 5. It's funny nobody noticed that after using 5irom with imei hack to scape from B926, after restoring the imei backup the network was also changed to HSPA:11, because 5iromtoolbox uses partitions 5, 10 and 11.

this tool allows backup and restore of just the IMEI partition

http://www.modaco.co..._ restore imei

Hi popoyaya

Thanks - I will try that. However, I don't think it will help. As per my above post, the issue is not that the IMEI partition has been set to zero (since inbound/outbound calls are still working) - rather CM10.1 cannot, for some reason, able to read it when HSPA:11 modems are used.

Cheers.

Hi everybody

I'd like to know if i can restore the backup from Huawei's "All Backup" in this rom. I searched online but i can't find a version of All Backup working on JB.

Thanks in advance ;-)

Me too - Went from R2 to R3 & had the mobile network being lost, unless the phone was rebooted. Flashed HSDPA 11 (from 8) and lost the IMEI.

I restored the IMEI with 5irom toolbox and rebooted and now I'm back on HSPDA 8 again!

The IMEI did show however, in the settings/about phone/status menu, even though the *#06# showed it as being '0'
