I recently upgraded to 4.1.2 successfully and also kept root with RootKeeper but I now have an issue that I did not have before with my 4G signal. Whenever I place a call on 4.1.2 my 4G data drops out when on all previous versions it stayed on. Also, I had the issue where my phone only had 3G active after upgrading to 4.1.2 so I went to Verizon, had them switch my SIM card and 4G came back.

Is anyone else having the issue of losing 4G data when placing calls?

Phone: Droid RAZR MAXX HD (XT926)
Carrier: Verizon Wireless
Version: 4.1.2 Rooted

Could someone please test this under the same circumstance I am in (XT926 4.1.2 Rooted) and let me know if they are having the same issue?

Just trying to decide if I want to get a replacement phone from Verizon to go back to 4.1.1 or this is an issue that is looking to be resolved. It sucks because I really enjoy 4.1.2, the phone is much snapper and responds way quicker when opening and closing apps

Thanks!

Doesn't happen to me.you sure about the 4g drop and just an icon change on the bar? Check networks in the settings menu during a call.

Thanks for your response! Any communication about what others are dealing with is helpful as it lets me understand the issue may only be on my end.

I've attached a screenshot of the "More" section under "Wireless & networks" from my phone during a phone call. As you can tell I do not have the 4G icon on my task bar and I am not able to modify the "Mobile networks" section as it is grayed out. Any idea why this may be?

I've also tried to use the Internet through a browser while on a phone call and it does not connect confirming I do not have Internet connection.

Sounds like a weird os issue.I would try a factory reset or full sbf if you want to stay stock.otherwise try safestrap and install another rom like vit.to test the results.

I've done a factory reset but have not done a full sbf yet because I do not want to lose root on my device. I truly enjoy 4.1.2 and enjoy it even more rooted so going back to a bone stock would really be disappointing. I will try to install a rom through safestrap to see if I get the same results.

If I do a full sbf, is there anyway for me to get root back on my 4.1.2 device?

Thanks again for your suggestions and responses!

I changed ROMs and I still have the issue. I ended up having Verizon send me a new phone out. Just got the new phone and everything is working right now. I am not to sure what happened with the old one but its definitely an issue only pertaining to my phone.

Could you please provide me with the steps you took to get your phone rooted on 4.1.2 so I can get back there?

The guide I used before was this: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/ra...t-hacking/237461-tool-easy-root-komplete.html

Thanks again!
