I've recently tried flashing pixel experience and various other roms via twrp. However, Everytime I load the phone up, I either have no service, data, or sometimes 3g briefly. When I try to go to carrier settings I get a ".com.android.phone has stopped." Error message, any advice on how to fix this?
Losing service after flashing ROM
- Thread starter L4ndon
- Start date
I have done this. Still have the same problem. Wiped dalvik, system, data, cache. No luck, I've tried every rom on this forum.
Obviously you haven't done a proper clean flash. I've flashed every rom available and no fcs. Only time I've had signal trouble was with att(gsm). Never lost signal, would just go from 2 bars to none then back again, but never lost signal.
Oh, search pe thread for my name to see the correct way to flash.

I don't know what to say. I boot into twrp, wipe dalvik, cache, system, data and then I flash the rom. Once I boot, I have the service issue. Could it be not flashing gapps?
1 - gapps has nothing to do with signal
2 - you seem to flash like most others here, I don't, and don't have issues they do.
3 - info was posted, follow it, or don't. Up to you.
4 - Best of luck!
Can you link the thread that you were talking about how to flash properly? I can't seem to find it. Sorry if I came off as brash, was just a little frustrated at my own mistakes.
Sorry man, but I'm not much of a spoon feeder - give a man a fish etc etc.
Get some sleep - relax - tackle it tomorrow - maybe without the frustrating you will find what you need to see (it is right there).
Riddle me this - a rom is a rom and as a rom a rom can be found in the ___ section. Simple isn't it.
Have a good night!
Hey, after decrypting my phone and using the method you posted in the pe thread to flash roms, I am still getting service problems. I've also noticed that anytime I have tried to open carrier settings on the phone, I get a ".com.android.phone has stopped." So I cant update the prl at all. I've seen people post about modifying the APN settings but I thought that was irrelevant on sprint. I'm honestly out of ideas.
Well, when nothing helps, it's time to go back to stock.
Get firmware for your location - different firmware (modem especially) for different markets.
Don't use any "tools" or .bat files you find here and flash with fastboot - do 1 command at a time and note results, (remove sim before flashing and reinsert after you've booted into stock once).
See what happens. Sometimes things get messed up enough to where flashing stock is the only thing to do. That'll really clean it out.
I had a real funky issue when going from att to vz. Spent hours with straight talk trying to sort it out (had 4g but no calls or texts). Flashed stock - popped sim in - bang - everything working, and has been ever since and I've flashed them all, some several times, still good.

When I first got my xt1806 I didn't load a Sim card in it when I powered it up, I immediately unlocked the bootloader, installed recovery, flashed a ROM and just used WiFi for a few days with no issues. But once I did put a new Sim in it I noticed all I could get was 3g - and with every other ROM I installed all I could get was 3g no matter what I tried. The only solution was to fastboot flash back to stock, install the Sim, power it up, & let it "register"(send a text or make a call & also verify 4g works) with the network. I'm not saying you did the same thing I did, but the fix should be flashing back to stock.
*Copy your internal memory somewhwere before you reflash stock in case everything gets wiped.
*I'm on Verizon btw, so my experience may or may not apply to Sprint.

Sprint problems with 4g
I know this isn't my thread but I shall try anyway. I have the Sprint version of the g5 s plus. I have tried every way of flashing a rom that I can think of (all wipes rom then gapps magisk, magisk then gapps, rom and no gapps or magisk, etc.). I cannot manage to keep 4g after flashing. I have backed up my efs with twrp and tried restoring it. Nothing. I've used fastboot to flash nhlos erase modems1&2 flash fsg. I tried *#*#463whatever to turn it back on and nothing. I've checked all settings and tried all things I know of. Still nothing. The only way I can get/keep 4g is by using stock rooted which I hate. . Is this just a specific problem to my type of phone or is there something I'm missing? Is there a different firmware or modem I could use or something? Any thoughts or ideas would be great cause I'm stumped.
