Installed new ROM and when 3G is activated, coverage goes on and off

[Guest imrahx]

I tried other roms but the problem still.

What ROM(s)?

Did you unlock the bootloader?

If so how?

If it was an unofficial unlock (e.g. huaweig300.com tutorial) then you should try unlocking it officially and see if that helps:

Or just stick with the GB baseband (198088) and bootloader.

 

Hope this helps.

[Guest imrahx]

Hey thanks for responding!

 

Yes, I unlocked it officially.

 

I tried CryanogenMod 9.1 and 10.1.

Try going back to stock B952 and see if the problem persists there maybe?

The unlocking tutorial above explains how to install this.

 

Hope this helps.

Do you mean this part?

[Guest dalyer]

Yes.

[Guest imrahx]

Ok, I tried to force update, but the update fails.

I tried the "middle package", it failed too.

 

Now I'm at the last step of that post, but I don't understand it a lot.

 

I have CWM Recovery 6.0.1.8.

 

 

 

You will need CWM recovery to be able to update, If you don't have it, follow this post to get it. Now, Chris Wyatt, has reported that if you flash an ICS repack with Complete wipes - Go into mounts and storage in CWM, then wipe everything except:/sdcard
/sdcard0
/sdcard1
/sd-ext

Now you have flashed the repack, you will have to go to the CWM home, then go to advanced > reboot recovery. Now wait until it reboots and then flash the relock bootloader zip by jsevi83. Then you can carry on with the tutorial, by following the next post.

 

When it says "wipe everything", what does that mean? When I go there I only see "mount/unmount" and "format".

 

 

I'm kinda lost at this point.

 

Again, thank you for the responses.

[Guest dalyer]

CWM normally has a number of format and wipe options.

Wipe everything normally means choose all wipe options.

Might be worth formatting partitions as well.

If you don't see these options then why not try CWM 6.0.4.x?

Where did you get 6.0.1.8 from? Sounds very old.

[Guest imrahx]

Mmmm I don't remember... u.u

Edit: I think it was from here http://huaweig300.com/huawei-g300-install-a-custom-jelly-bean-ics-rom-from-scratch/re-root-unlock-bootloader-install-clockworkmod-recovery/

 

How do I install it? Like a ROM?

Edit 2: Ok, I read I have to flash it  ^_^

Ok, I updated the recovery but there are the same options:

 

unmount /cache

mount /system

mount /data

mount /cust

mount /storage/sdcard1

mount /storage/sdcard0

format /cache

format /system

format /data

format /cust

format /storage/sdcard1

format /storage/sdcard0

mount USB storage

 

which ones should I "activate"?

Also, I don't undertand what you want me to do at all.

 

I have the bootloader unlocked now, do you want me to lock it and unlock it again?

There should be another CWM menu with "wipe" options.

When installing a ROM on any phone I normally do all possible wipes and formats just to be sure and do a clean install.

No. Just that that tutorial also explains how to install stock B952 - which will restore the locked bootloader etc.

Just that if you go back to stock and don't have the coverage problems then it's not the phone and it's probably the ROMs or your setup of these.

If you do have coverage problems even on stock then your phone may be damaged.

My hunch is that you have installed something on your phone that negatively impacts the coverage.

The best way to start again is to start again with stock B952.

Then unlock bootloader, root, install CWM, install custom ROM again.

 

But others may have other/better advice for you...

[Guest imrahx]

Ok, thank you.

 

I've done tihs:

And I tried a force update but the pink bar stops and update still fails...

[Guest imrahx]

Wow, I think the phone got bricked.

 

Recovery has changed to Android recovery, so I can't flash anything

And if I try to boot, it stops at Cyanogen Mod splash art...

btw, when I try to do the force update and it fails, appears a .txt file in the dload file and it contents the following:

 

filename = /mmc1/dload/update.app call RCV_MODULE_END_EVENT failed,module = OEMSBL_VER_LISTCMD=0xf,moduleaddr = 0xd2000000, len_tmp=0x6000
