did anyone with the network problem find a solution? - Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

there were a lot of posts (including one of mine) where people complained that when data network mode was activated and they tried to answer / make a call, they couldn't. and if they did try to, it wouldn't answer and the network bars would become grey (that is, no bars) and it would take a couple of minutes for network to come back (or until you restart, whichever comes first).
anyway, i had some issues with my phone and i gave to the service center. i told them of it and they flashed the stock ROM + kernel. i had some other issues as well, so they said they'll keep the phone for two days.
so i'm getting my phone back tomorrow. now i want to know if flashing the stock firmware did in fact solve anyone's issues. if it did, i'll continue with the stock rom / kernel (please tell me which was causing you the problems). if not, i'll flash a custom ROM / kernel again. please let me know.
also, does anyone know why this happens? is some app causing these problems? because after flashing a new custom ROM (without any user apps installed) i can call / receive properly without deactivating the data network mode.
but, no user apps (and no google account sync either) = no internet traffic.
i'd request the expert devs (ROM makers, kernel developers, testers etc) to please leave their opinion as i'm not the only one who faces this issue. a few of us do and this is one of the few unsolved issues on this forum.
thank you.

ur last custom rom??? wer u using 3g turbocharger??

frankly i don't know what 3g turbocharger is :/
i was using kyrillos' ROM 8.0 (updated to 8.1) and i did run the supercharger script, but i don't think that's what you're talking about. i wasn't using the 3g network.
i've been facing this issue for a LONG time now. i've changed a few ROMs but same effect in all of them. maybe it's something to do with the european firmware (i live in mumbai, india) or something, i'm not sure. are you on vodafone? where in india do you stay?

Well even i am facing this strange network problem but only indoors!!
Outdoors the range is full!!
Since we all flash custom roms that are based on european base, i thought that the problem is related to the modem.bin AKA baseband!!
So i was thinking of just flashing the modem.bin again from any asian firmware.
But before doing that i flashed the old ddjg6 (eclair) rom just to see if baseband flashing is worth it.
Well the network problem was still there!! so the conclusion was that baseband/modem.bin flashing wont affect anything!!
stay happy!!

I cant remember if kyr8 had 3g turbocharger tweaks on build.prop.. But yes with 3g turbocharger on , I hav sum issues with data connection...

Btw did u get phone.apk force close while happenin this??
-tapatalked by RnB

phone.apk force closed often. but never because of the weird data connection. i think it just generally force closed.
and i have been facing this problem since kyrillos' 6.0 or 7.0. one of the two. can't remember. also, please look for my "a request for a custom lock screen?" thread in galaxy 3 general and let me know if you can help. thanks!
also, people who are facing such issues please leave your name and "symptoms" here.

yes i also face the same problem of network,no solutions found yet.but i am not sure whether this prob happens to all the network or just VODAFONE,as i am using VODAFONE only.

okay please visit this thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1229423&highlight=data+network+mode&page=2
also, here's a bit of my network story if it helps anyone understand this issue :
i bought the phone when it was running Eclair. it worked fine for a few days then i started to face the issue. when i tried sliding the green answering thing to the right, it just wouldn't answer. it would go back in it's place. when people called me, it said it was unavailable. my network used to restart, and calls would randomly get cut and i couldn't call back immediately. i had to wait for 10-15 seconds before i could make / receive any call again. within this time, the calls would dial, but not connect.
so i upgraded to froyo (JP2) from the samsung gallery. my phone worked PERFECTLY for two months or so. no call drops, no nothing. then all of the above started happening again.
i tried flashing different ROMs, kernels etc but nothing helps.
and neo, i face this problem everywhere. indoors and outdoors.
okay so i'm getting my phone back tomorrow. does anyone have any tips for me? something that i should or should not do? like flash a european ROM or just the kernel or not to install a specific app or something?

i do have the same situation. it worked very good by me, till marcellusbe released his cm7 alpha4 i think. i installed it, and since then i have got that network problem, during calls f. example i lose the communication. i dont hear amything, it freezes, and turns back to menu after a few seconds. then i notice that its in the flight mode automatically. and this just happens me when i have got the data connections on. if i deactivate it i dont face any problems like that. i also noticed since i once installed cm7 alpha4 , i have got a strange battery drain. i charg the phone till its fully cjarged, after 3 hours i do not have any battery any more.. help me in that ... PLEASE
i really become frustated the whole time when this happens to me, pls find a solution!! ....

Well if flashing customs roms and kernels is not helping, you need to try only flashing the stock modem.bin!! I really dont know how to do that safely but people do it!! If you can update the OP like "Please help in flashing just modem.bin" then maybe someone makes and give you an update.zip or a tar containing just modem.bin.
If that too fails to solve your problem, then you must demand a replacement of the handset from samsung! Thats all i can say man!!

Well, the same is happening with me. Even i have vodafone and i live in pune, india. I didnt use eclair for alot of of time so I don't know whether it is a froyo-eclair prob.
The problem that happens with me is that, when i go to my classes (which are in a damn closed area) i dont get any signal. Even though the network bars are zero i still get messeages and phone calls. but when i call someone or message it does not reach. It only happens in some places like my classes and school, but not at my house.
I found a way (not quite conventional but works). I have found that when i flash a rom; irrespective of whether stock or custom; the signal catching is quite stong. But after a month or two it is becomes laggy again. So i flash another rom and again it's good. I dont know whether it is a correct method but works for me.

Same place!! Pune!! But i get the problem only in some areas!!!

okay so i've been using the stock firmware for two-three days now. and i've been facing absolutely no network problem as such.
when i press *#1234# here are my results :
PDA : i5801DDJP2
phone : i5801DDJP2
CSC : i5801DDJP2
build info : 2011, 04
now can someone interpret this for me? i mean tell me what exactly this means. which of those is my ROM build, my kernel build, or baseband or whatever.
tell me if there are any custom ROMs / kernels built on these builds (or updated ones, but still indian updates) so that i can test if those work for me?
thanks.

There is no custom rom build on this build as this build is lot buggy than the other european firmwares.
And that phone is the baseband responsible for the network and all!!
Some people face network problems some dont!!
Here is the phone of i5801ddjp3 firmware
http://www.mediafire.com/?34yrw4b7fe63tri
If you unzip this file, you get the modem.bin
Now there has to be a way to flash this modem.bin over custom firmwares!!
here is the sgs version of it!! This thread contains of all modem.bin of stock firmware to be flashed over custom rom to get better baseband for samsung galaxy s!

Even I used to face similar problem but only on custom rom's not on stock ones.. but using the stock rom's is too boring so now I have flashed with purungrit's rom v.1.0, kernel G3 mod 2.0, and its working fine, no network issues. The theme is good with extended power menu and 5 lockscreen.. u can try this. we can flash custom rom's based on Indian firmwares and face no network problems, problem is only with European or other countries firmwares..

But the problem is that indian firmwares are a bit inferior as compared to european firmwares.. If you compare any indian firmware with jpq or jpu you will feel the difference..
I really want someone to try that modem.bin method

Ask some of the devs that whether this method can be used n is it safe.. than we can go for it.

[Q] Service is toggling after flashing JB on i727

I have two questions 1) is my only way to fix this to go back to stock ICS using ODIN? 2) Once i get back to that, what do i do in order to get to a working version of JB? is it as simple as trying another ROM? Is it ok to skip ICS and just flash another version of JB?
Background if you want it....
Followed vincon guide : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1773659
Started with Stock ATT 4.0.4
CWM via odin
baseb: UCLI3
I flashed JB [ROM] [4.1.2] [UCLL3] Stock Debloat to my i727 last night. Everything went seemingly smooth, everything worked with a strange exception being my exchange account wouldn't authenticate.Today my service is off about 95% of the time, then it will come on and ill get a text or two, then it goes off. voice calls dont work at all. LTE data is hit or miss.WiFi works
In phone status under network type its toggling: UTMS:3 to HSPA:11 to HSPAP15 to no service...then it drops everything and service state will say out of service and disconnected.
My IMEI is correct, I confirmed that.
It tried dialing the *#*#XXXX#*#* thing, that just said no connection and ended.
I started to go down the path of looking to flash a new radio, but that just doesn't seem like the answer to me... obviously the risk of me being wrong is high. i did check the MD5 numbers on other radios though and they came back as mismatched, so i did nothing there.
Also i wiped cache 3 times, as well as dalvek
Is there a simple solution that Ive missed or do i need to go to stock via ODIN? What, if anything, did i do wrong>
If you didn't flash corresponding UCLL3 baseband - AFAIK intermittent service is expected.
If you need to flash baseband - flash the latest UXUMA7 baseband.
Well i've actually had the exact same problem, in several variations and on several androids and here's my conclusions:
1 Magnetic storms and grid issues with the carrier. There's not much to do about these, except maybe for a making a tin hat for your phone. But, on a second thought this would also kill the signal
2 If the issue persists for more than a couple of days then the other thing for me was = radios that just didn't work with my carrier or rom. Changing these showed instant results.
I actually had this exact problem but for me it was on the carrier end. I tried every ROM and radio out there to no avail. After about a month and my parents also experiencing the issue, we called the carrier and they had it fixed in about two weeks.

Something stupid

I think i did something stupid. Yesterday I decided to upgrade de modem/radio on my Note 3 running on ProBAM 1.3.3. I flashed CP-modem-NE6.tar. I was on CP_N9005XXUENC2.tar.md5 radio/modem with bootloader BL_N9005XXUEND6.tar. I was using the normal kernel which came with the rom.
After this update everything seemed to work okay. Until I decided to make a phonecall. Then my phone got hung up and I had to reboot. After the reboot the calling issue was not fixed. I tried flash back to my former radio/modem but that didn't work as well. Only mobile internet 3G/4G/HSDPA works and my phone has signal, but i cannot receive calls (i dont hear a ringtone) and make calls myself.
So I decided to make a full wipe of system, data, sdcard and start from scratch with a full Samsung Stock rom. I used this one: N9005XXUEND3_N9005PHNEND1_N9005XXUENC2_HOME.tar.md5. PHN is the CSC code for The Netherlands. The rom installs fine in Downloading Mode. After installing i went to the stock recovery and did a system reset/wipe and cleared the cache partition. Then the rom booted fine. What is strange is that i dont hear the standard bootsound during booting. For me this was a clue that something is not good. I still can't receive and make calls and my phone don't function anymore like it should. The sound buttons react very slow, camera doesn't work anymore. The samsung music app makes my phone to hang etc.
Has anyone have a clue on what can be wrong and how to correct it?

Short Story - Modem Should match the rest of the firmware. Flash the Stock NE6 Full rom which you pulled out the Modem from. Things should be back to normal. Made the Same Mistake with NE3. Dont flash and try to fix it in another way, You might lose the IMEI resulting in a visit to the Service Center.
P.S - Some "wannabe" will point out that this post needs to be in the Q&A Section soon.
Problem is that i only have that modem file CP-modem-NE6.tar and flashed that onto my existing rom. I don't even know which stock rom it was pulled from. To test I just flashed N9005DXUENE3_N9005OLCENE4_N9005DXUENE2_HOME.tar.md5 but nothing has changed about this problem. What is the next step?

Did you write only the modem or you also wrote NON-HLOS.bin? Also sometimes it is said that you also need to flash the corresponding RIL.
I wrote both files. First modem.bin and then took out the battery, replaced it and booted to download mode again and flashed non-hlos.bin and again pulled the battery, put it back and booted the rom.

Until you get on a NE6 firmware (Same version the Modem CP was pulled from), Nothing else will help. I went through this path. It was a headache Mate. However NE6 Firmware is not that bad. Just the uneasy feeling that It's not XX, but a DX.

Sorry Mate, Obviously didn't meant to hurt your feelings. It was a random thought which I dedicated to a few "certain users" who reply - "this should be in Q&A" without answering the poor soul's question.
Some time ago here in XDA, In a situation like this, First we see the answers, then a moderator silently moves this to Q&A and put up a warning to the bloke who made the mistake. Unfortunately nowadays, just as soon as people see the thread is in the wrong section, they just bark as if they suddenly turned blind to the problem OP is having. Mistakes are not made purposely, and obviously these are people who's new to forum.
I went through the same problem by jumping to the NE6 modem a few days ago. So I know how this agony feels.
Man kann die Natur nicht ändern.
No one can hurt my feelings in an Forum, so no prop
The point is, the Rules are sticked on top >
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46416908
So when i'm new on an Forum the first thing should be reading and respecting these.
I was Mod in an German Smartphone Forum (Handy-Faq) and i know it's an pain in the ass always remembering people to follow the rules and move unmatched stuff into the right sections. Mods usually don't get paid and doing this in her Freetime. They're trying to provide and clean Forum and this takes a lot of time, especially in such an huge Forum like XdA.
So it shouldn't be that hard to take the time and read at least the sticked Stuff, before posting...
Just think, you're coming home from work and open the Forum. The first thing you'll have to do is to go through the Threads and move this and that, simply because it's posted wrong or there's already an Thread about it. For Example there are meanwhile a couple of Threads about this Problem in Q&A. So I instead of helping people you used 30min or more to clean the Threads.

ZH Series is for Hongkong. Hong Kong N9005 is 16GB, so yeah It will not flash to the 32GB version.
Check the thread where you found the Modem from, The Link for the Rom will be there.
Stupid thing and together lucky is that i just flashed the NE4 radio and all seems to be back to normal again. Phone is again fast and everything seems to work again. Now I have to test with making calls.
Will report back later this evening.

[Q] Nexus 5 Massive Network Issues - Common?

Hi all, I aren't a new user but have attached my Google account on this log in so....meh.
I understand that from update 4.4.3 and upwards many N5 users experience loss of their mobile network where switching to aeroplane mode then back again is the only way to rectify this? I was fine until I recently swapped to Virgin (UK) which uses the EE network, ever since this my calls go straight to voicemail unless I manually select the provider myself.
I was having a whale of a time with CM11 and only found out this issue after tearing my hair out for a couple of weeks but it is something I cannot have because I need my phone to be available *always* due to issues with my mum. So what I have now done is backdated my system to 4.4.2 which seems to have worked *but* I now get the system update notifications which I have dealt with but I now seem to have messed up the Play Store
Is there any one solution for this problem where I can have everything actually working as it should? 4.4.2 stock seems to run a lot better and seems a lot quicker in all honesty, quicker than even CM11 than is the gods honest truth.
Please help I dearly love this phone and need it to work for personal reasons and I aren't in a position to buy another right now (quit joib to look after mum etc) have I tugged at your heart strings enough yet?
Flash 4.4.4 but flash the 4.4.2 radio then?
On my carrier in Australia, I've never had a single drop issue, on all versions of the radio.
I live in Ohio and my connection is awesome with ATT. The only problem I have with network is my house and church. Lol Everywhere else like work is awesome. I think the network you choose is the major player in this. The phone itself is great on network.

Factory images. Then use fastboot to flash it while in bootloader. Link to tutorials are in the first link of my signature.

To 100 % prove it to myself I did the stock system updates, first to 4.4.3 then to 4.4.4 straight after I rang myself from a landline and it went immediately to voicemail. I then tried to install Cyanfox and that fails on the set up wizard as did liquid
linaro, both using the correct gapps and several versions.
So my next try is an older CM M3 iirc because I think doing the radio thing is a bit beyond my skills Lethargy

To 100 % prove it to myself I did the stock system updates, first to 4.4.3 then to 4.4.4 straight after I rang myself from a landline and it went immediately to voicemail. I then tried to install Cyanfox and that fails on the set up wizard as did liquid
linaro, both using the correct gapps and several versions.

theres an easier solution than that...! grab a baseband/radio here http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...t/modem-nexus-5-flashable-modems-efs-t2514095 download the zip file to your phone then flash it in your custom recovery. it takes seconds and can flash as many radios as you like until you find the perfect one for you

T-mobile 4g internet works but I have calling problems

I have the international Note 5, with a t-mobile sim card. When I am on the 4g network and I try to call somebody it takes 20-30 seconds to call. When people call me, they can't reach me. Though the 4g internet works like a charm.
The only way for calling to work is to switch it to 2g, but I am loosing the 4g internet speeds.
I contacted t-mobile, they tried to reset the network, but the problem persists.
Any suggestions?
Would flashing with a custom rom help?
Should I flash the original t-mobile rom?

I found the problem
The problem has to do with the volte... This option is not available with the n905c model that I have, and there seems not to be a fix with t-mobile. Fricken Samsung didn't put available this feature in the upgrades of some international phones eg the Dubai model that I have...
I have the same problem
I just bought two t-mobile branded Note 5's and I'm using them on Family Mobile (previously owned by tmobile). If I limit my networks to 2G & 3G all of my calling works fine but the moment I enable LTE all of my incoming calls go strait to vm. The problem persists on both phones so I don't think it's a hardware issue. I've tried rooted and unrooted, magisk and supersu. VoLTE is turned off on both phones (since it's not supported by family mobile) but I've tried every combination of settings I can think of and nothing helps. I hate having to choose between having LTE or getting incoming calls and would love to fix the problem. Or is there a good way to totally disable or remove the VoLTE services? If I remember correctly there were similar problems with some of the S4s that required an app like advanced signal status (??? been a while) to overcome. Can anyone help? Please and thank you.
I have the same problem
Hi all,
I have the same problem, even I have install & root with custom rom the problem still exist.
someone told me that the problem is in 3G signal.
so I decide to choose LTE & GSM only, & it works for me. however it could not give 3G signal on my phone.
Did you find the other olution of this?
Evening all, I've been having this same issue, hoping there would be a fix. Not ready to purchase a new phone when there is nothing wrong with the one I have still good for at least another yr(maybe). but not rite now.
i fix the problem
Hi all,
maybe this method could solve the issue. please try it & follow below step.
1. reset to factory setting then after finish please clear Dalvik Cache.
2. Flash with the latest Odin & latest firmware, but you don't need to change everything in options tab. then click start.
3. After finish, then insert APN as mention in this link (please read how to set APN on Galaxy note5)
4. After select your desired APN, please change APN name become ****4g.com (or you can find this apn setting in your carrier SIM (check in google)
5. Finish, please check your phone.
hope above method could solve the issue, however it works for me now.
please try at your own risk & don't forget to always save your data before.
This is the FIX for the Note 5 SM-N920 C, i know this works because i have been dealing with this for MONTHS, so i tried EVERY Custom Roms Untill i figuard WHY NOT flash a Stockish T-Mobile Rom with a Custom Kernel for the 920C. And Just like that i got My Awesome Note 5 BIZACKKK, Here we go, Follow these steps, Upgrade to the FIRST 7.0 that came out for the SM-N920C, of course you should already know to turn on debuging + OEM, Flash TWRP through Odin, then go to the TMOBILE Development Section and THANK "@Marinella" First and foremost for cooking up this Rom, Download his Stockish Unrooted Rom ++7.0 ROM Stock Unrooted N920TUVU4EQE1++you will also need (MAKE SURE TO THANK--->>> ""@AndroidSword"" ) this 7.0 Kernel, go to the seack bar and type it in, FUEL-KERNEL-V2 .... now before anything, Of course do FULL WIPES Of Everything like you usually wipe when downloading other Roms, flash the stockish Rom first, then the Kernel, Just so you know, the Kernel has 2 choices of root. ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT>>!!!!, Boot your Device and wait, this took me months to figure out after flashing so many diffrent Rom, Now I Have My Favorite International Note 5 Back, trust me , this WILL WORK ON THE 920C. ENJOY...
hi,
above method is for SM-N920C, do you have solution for SM-N920T ?
No Idea, sorry, try different Custom Rom, i have not heard of this issue with the 920T. Good Luck.

[HELP] Baseband doesn't work more

Hi mates, I got the phone from a discount shop, it was flashed with a LL 5.0 version.. after flashing some experiments with unsucessful baseband I 've found the solution. Pit the file and install the latest MM QD1 stock.. then I installed TWRP and flashed ResurrectionRemix 5.8.5 for G900P spr of 29/9/17..
the phone worked correctly since today, then it recognizes the simcard but no netwok signal. Three days ago I updated to the latest RR, which doesn't more report thwe spr version.. they ask use now KLTEDV, I suppose it created the problem.
I wiped all and flash again the stock rom, but no baseband, what can I do?

I had that issue after some months of getting my S5, my modem burned out and they had to replace the device. You may want to see if a repair shop can take a look at it.

thank you for report it! which Android version you had? Did you updated it to a custom rom? Are you sure it was an hardare fault?
I'm asking someone here if it is possibile to check the modem status with some diagnostic code, is it possible?
Thank you

I was rooted with either PAC or Cyanogenmod. It started out with a weird issue of my time being off because when I lost signal, the time zone would change. Then my signal strength would weaken or drop all together, normally a reboot would fix it. One day nothing I could do would bring back the signal so I called my provider, they did some troubleshooting (update profile, prl and went in and reset the phone number) send another S5 over to see if that fixed the issue, which it did. I put my old S5 back to stock and it reset knox and I returned the old phone. I think part of that issue may have been that my qi charger may have made the phone too hot and burned it out.
thank you a lot for report it. As soon I have time I'll have a try and report here if I can repair it..

Not sure if you ever got your S5 going. I just wanted to let you know that I went back to my S5 as my primary and now I am no longer getting LTE. I will try and troubleshoot the issue at some point, so far I found some posts saying to go back to stock, run all the network updates (PRL, activation, etc) then go back to custom if you have LTE on the stock. They also said to try a new SIM card. I also saw others who had to manually re-add the network settings.
thank you a lot for reply, actually I haven't yet time to work on it.. but I should do it soon somehow.
Anyway my phone is dead about network, no question of LTE. As I know this Spring phones doesn't work on LTE because in US they use other frequencies, and this phone is supposed to work there only

UPDATE: I found this on the main S5 site:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/help/solved-unknown-baseband-fixed-t3680402
It did not work for me, I think it is because I only have problems with LTE. I think it will work for your problem tho.
Good Luck!
Thank you a lot, I tired but for now doesn't help, I'll try more and waiting support, thank you!
