Anyone else having a problem with the NxS jumping between 2G/3G network all the time?
I tried 2G-only and it seems the it does interrupt connection less often, but it still does. I'll exchange the sim card tomorrow to rule out the last option (I can think of) I got before returning the NxS and asking for a replacement.
(i9023, stock rom/kernel/radio, tried 3 stock roms with diff radios (KA3, KB3, KD1))
Maybe anyone got an idea or a hint.

Granted I'm not in the best 3G area, but I usually get 3 (of 5) bars in 3G and then it just pops back to 2G.
Might be network pumping (or w/e it's exactly called), gonna exchange the sim anyway to track down the problem further.
Are u on orange in the uk

I have this problem aswell. Thing is 2 3g bars are way faster than 4 g bars. I cant change it to use only cdma in the service menu. Anyone know why.

So does change of simcard help?
I got it fixed for me. I tried n3 and n5 sim cards, no changes. Problems were caused by faulty antennas, after being fixed by the carrier problem was reduced to a minimum. Now to get rid of the so called network breathing, which is a problem of the used communication method itself aka can't be fixed. University ftl!! Simply too many smartphones

I still cannot use my WiFi calling feature of the One S TMO ANYWHERE outside the USA! TMO touts the wifi calling feature as a method to reduce roaming charges when traveling abroad but the f$$%king app fails to work! I continues to alternate between red and blue with the MISSING 911 ADDRESS error constantly popping up. TMO says my address is in their system and their tech support is clueless.
I have the problem with the stock ROM and when using Trickdroid.
Anyone have any solutions?
Have your phone on and have Wi-Fi calling active. Then take the SIM card out and put it back in. You can also try rebooting without the SIM in and then re-insert

Forgot to mention the problem exists on my SGSII!
I had same issue. I went to my online T-Mobile account and added the address under Profile / Customer Information and the probl went away.

bought a nexus s with a properly smashed screen off ebay and replaced it with a new one. when i insert sim card and search for a network it says cannot connect to network please try later. does this mean its been imie blocked?? bit pissed off to be fair but hey ho always a gamble when you get off ebay
I believe that you would still have to activate that with carrier and if it's blocked they can tell you

it just registered on network then it cut off again,could it be the antenna? anyone know the location of the antenna on the nexus s?
when connected to network calls and texts dont work but 3g internet does. help appriciated
This sounds like a job for Odin. Get the newest factory image from here and be sure you flash everything....rom, kernel and radio, especially! This is the best way to see if it's a firmware or hardware issue. If it still happens after a factory flash you'll know it's hardware related.
Ask any question and we will try to help you out

Ok I got one,
My microphone is broken (everyone says I sound like I'm in a tunnel) I don't have the $ or time to fix the microphone, so I've been using my headset. My head set has a sucky midrange, where everything sounds muddy. I need to amplify the high end and reduce the mid range on my calls. I know the Galaxy SIII has an In-Call EQ, is there an EQ I can use to fix this situation on my phone or is there any kind of hack I can use?
I saw other screenshots of people's speed test with the Blaze & theirs seemed way higher than mine. Anyone know a way I can improve my speeds? Running Provision ROM V3.1

It's all location dependent. But some have seen higher speeds with the T989 uvmc6 radio
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895400 Try a few out and see what happens, note what radio you have now so you can go back if you want.
But in the end most of it is just how loaded the towers are in your area (at least with the blaze's hspa42), and what server speedtest is connecting to. But your speeds are pretty average and not that bad. I normally get 6-8mbps down, 2mbps up, 60ms ping.
Here's my question What ROM are you running?

I wanted to know if it was possible to back port the android 4.2 lock screen to 4.1.2? I would love to have that lock screen now until a build of CM 10.1 is done for the blaze.

I've noticed in CM10, 5gz Wifi is supported. Does the Blaze support this range, or is it just CM10? Thanks!

It's not even an option on any in Tweaked 2.2, I think it was removed in ICS.

My husband has the samsung galaxy s blaze 4G; love the phone, but is having a recurring issue. The last 2 micro sd cards he's had in it have suddenly been wiped and lost everything that was on them while mounted in the phone. No warning, just everything's gone. I haven't tried a hard reset yet. When it happened with the first card, I unmounted it and tried reading it on the pc, but it was blank, then the pc wouldn't even recognize it.
Any suggestions?

Is it possible to change the path to which the phone saves apps when you chose to move them to the SD card? When I do this on my phone it just moves them to the "internal" storage space and not onto my 32GB microSD card.
EDIT: Nevermind, just being dumb and lazy this evening. I've found the info in another thread...
Should I Unlock?
Let me start off my saying that I am just your average housewife with a cell phone problem. I am hoping to get some honest advice about unlocking my phone.
Obviously, I have a T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S Blaze. I bought it used from a private party and intended to use my Walmart Family Mobile sim with it, but it would never recognize my sim card. A couple of months worth of troubleshooting went by and the whole time I assumed the problem lied with my service plan and sim card. I finally took it to a T-mobile store, surely they would have some magic settings or a quick fix, right? Wrong! They informed me that the phone was network locked because someone reported it stolen and there was nothing they could do for me.
My service plan is 'powered by T-mobile'. Will unlocking the phone enable me to use it on the T-mobile network again?
The phone is in perfect condition. There has got to be some way to still make it usable. Any advice you have to offer would be so helpful.
Note: T-mobile 4g Sim = no indication or recognition of the sim
Walmart Family Mobile 3g Sim = message basically stating that I need to upgrade my sim
Any ATT Sim (not prepaid) = a screen pops up requesting an unlock code

If the phone is reported stolen, you will not be able to use it with t-mobile. Unlocking it should make it work with ATT. Data may be limited to edge speeds on ATT
Edit: Not sure if there is a way to check it they told you the truth at the store. Maybe someone else has some experience with this?

Have you rooted the phone yet? Do you have a custom ROM installed? If you do it could be a matter of just setting the correct APN settings under the network settings. I could be wrong though. But its worth trying. Look up the Walmart mobile APN settings and see if that will work. That would be the first thing I would try. If you don't know how to change the APN a simple Google search will find what your looking for. Hope this helps.

Please don't get frustrated with me
1. My phone is not rooted. Not too sure what rooting is, but I think its like jailbreaking?
2. I probably do not have a custom ROM (googling that right now)
3. I know all about APN settings. I have many different APN's for T-mobile. Yes, I have Walmart's, as well.
I am very familiar with how to add them to the phone.
4. I also upgraded to 4.0.4 ICS (not sure if that's important)

Thank you, I will keep that in mind. :good:
I'm running 4.4.2 on my LG G2 for AT&T
My wife just got the same phone and her phone shows 4G/LTE Mine shows only 4G
I checked our APN settings for both and they're the same
I checked through the 4636 code through the phone and it shows only the HSPA letters where hers shows up once again with LTE
ANY advice would be great
Try turning data off then on again, it will force it to search for the network.

i tried that one...and i tried the 4646 code and theres no option to change the NETWORK type...this friggin sux...no LTE on this phone and only "4G"...been tryng to figure this one out..
any advice much appreciated.
Maybe replace it?
If this is a new phone that you haven't tampered with, I suggest that you exchange it. New phones don't need any change in settings to connect to LTE out of the box.
Maybe it's a hardware problem. Did this problem just appear out of nowhere? (maybe after the update)?
Like the poster above if its stock return it otherwise reflash to stock to confirm the issue is still there, here's another thread dealing with the same issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2702386

you might be 'ROAMING'
this happens to me. i think theres no att tower near me, i think they use someone elses lte tower, but half of the android phones ive used need roaming enabled to connect to lte in my area. try that it might work.. its in the normal settings app under networks enable all roaming. never had any extra charges. att covers the nation and doesnt count local roaming.
BUT i agree with this guy if my suggestion doesnt work
