[Q] Netzwerk probleme in Germany

Hi there,
the Samsung Galaxy S 3 bought with the LTE version and have it sent from America to Germany.
I have the phone rooted first with the the latest version of Cyanogenmod 10.1, because the Verizon version had not installed any German language.
The following problem
Now running a normal German O2 simcard . I get no network with GSM/3G.
Can it be that the Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE versions not support German Android versions?
What can I do with it can be adjusted in the settings of the German language and the sim card works?
Actually, I thought. S2 as well as multiple languages ​​selection are but unfortunately the S3 and the Verizon version only American English, Spanish, Japanese, Korean language selection
Thank you

Try a custom touchwhiz rom? it may have German on that? are you on the latest build? cause i think the older versions dont have GSM mode on them

The Man in my Provider-Shop said, the Samsung Galaxy S3 I535 Verizon supported only LTE/CDMA or CDMA Network.
But in Germany is the GSM Network. So, my phone does not connect in the Network.
Help Please... Its a to expensive Mp3 Player

Nope, he is wrong..S3 supports(verizon version) Supports GSM also, for Europe 3G also..Try this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1973982)
Select APN edit while installing the ROM, and when it switches on go to network and select GSM mode or Global Mode

I find a way by using "advanced signal status" app where you can chooce various mode and there is LTE mode only too ,but there is also auto mode gsm,wcdma/lte. try this app and it will work.
but i think you need root for this
In the app there is Additional info at bottom then there is information about tablet (or something like that , its estonian for me, but its first choice there) then there is option what you wana use.
i hope it helped.

I will give it a go but I am not going to root my device .

The problem here is that the LTE whitelist file for the US region doesn't have the non-US providers in it. Thus, you won't see the LTE option with your SIM.
You can try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.viaero4gtoggle, but if that doesn't work, rooting is the only option.

[Q] Can I unlock Moto G LTE 1039(GB)'s other radio bands?

I have a new Moto G LTE 1039, it is a Great Britain version radio, only support LTE Band 3/7/20.
But my local ISP support LTE Band 1.There is a Europe/Australia version, it has a Bands 1, 3, 7, 8, 20.
Can I unlock my phone LTE bands by install other EU/AU Stock Firmware?
By the way, and HOW TO?

Thank you, I had read the pages. I found that th main idea is that I should use the QPST to do it,
not to swap to other system version(e.g. EU/AU). It that true?
And if I have unlock the other LTE bands, need I install the EU/AU system version, or still use the GB version?

[Q] LTE/WCDMA/GSM Problem "Not registered on network"

Dear Senior Member,
Please help me as I am stuck with the problem of mobile network in my Galaxy S6 Dual (SM-G920F). My mobile is upgraded recently with 5.1.1 ((PDA: G920FXXU2BOFL CSC: G920FOJV2BOEE CHANGELIST: 5012324 BUILD DATE: 22.06.2015) ). Main problem of my Galaxy S6 now is, when I select WCDMA/GSM or LTE/WCDMA/GSM or WCDMA, then my mobile network is not working and it shows error message "Not registered on network" and also it shows "Emergency calls only". But when I choose GSM only, then my call, message and mobile network work but internet speed is so slow. My upgradation is for that reason and now the same problem as earlier. I think so mane experts are here on Galaxy S6, Please help. I think it happens for Modem FIle or Stock firmware. Then which stock firmware is good for this problem. Please suggest.

Before flashing any ROM bring your S6 1st to your telecom provider for check-up since your S6 is still under warranty. Flashing ROM voids your warranty.

Before updating did you have lte? Idk there was the region specific network block that Samsung put on its phone. Meaning if u bought a phone from Dubai and plan to use in US, u have to put a Dubai sim and make 5 minutes call to unlock the region network block to use it in US.

Either find a uk sim or try some guides in youtube on how people unlocked other new samsungs(Note 3, 4) as should be mostly same for s6! Otherwise you'll have to pay and get it unlocked from a Samsung official shop in Bangladesh or your mobile carrier/service centre.

Same problem as before.
Model: GALAXY S6 (SM - G920FD/G920F) DUAL SIM
SIM 1 > GSM ONLY > CALL, Message & Internet (Slow speed as 2G) without problem
SIM 2 > GSM ONLY > CALL, Message & Internet (Slow speed as 2G) without problem
IF CHOOSE
SIM 1 > LTE/WCDMA/GSM(Auto connect) OR WCDMA/GSM OR WCDMA ONLY > SHOW EMERGENCY CALL ONLY
SIM 2 > LTE/WCDMA/GSM(Auto connect) OR WCDMA/GSM OR WCDMA ONLY > SHOW EMERGENCY CALL ONLY
Is it the problem of dual Sim or what?

Xperia XA (Us Warranty) no LTE service

Good day all, hope I'm on the right place/post here.
Wondering if someone can help, I've purchased a Xperia XA F3113 via Amazon from SA.
Phone works 99.9%, the other 0.01% is my issue.
To start with all the settings are set to LTE(Preferred)/WCDMA/GSM, my carrier Vodacom has sent and verified that my sim is LTE activated (Used the same sim on other phones with LTE present)
Here's everything I did to resolve the problem....
1- Phone came from USA with android 6 and no LTE signal just 3g (In a 4G environment)
2- Vodacom sent settings and confirmed. did not work
3- Spoke to Sony and they suggested I upgrade software
4- Upgraded software via Sony Companion to Nougat Android 7
5- Vodacom re-send the LTE settings still no luck.
6- If I search the mobile networks it only finds 3g-Vodacom, 2g-Vodacom, MTN, Cell C NO LTE on any network. Screen shot Attached....
7- Think I've reached Google's end of their information network (searched everything)
OK so now I'm thinking I want to flash/re-install ROM/Firmware with SA (South African) settings due to different Base band versions.
I came across a link but are not allowed to post it yet due to my 1ste post on you're site. But the ink only have the "(F3112_1302-4393_33.3.A.0.127-R1B_Customized_SA.ftf)" for model F3112 dual sim and apparently it wont work on the F3113 single sim....
Google this: 2017/06/xperia-xa-android-7-0-nougat-firmware
Can Anyone maybe help or have some suggestions except for returning the phone.....?
Thnx

Hi, I think that it will not solve your problem. Did not you asked yourself why Sony sell 3 differents single sim device (F3111, F3113 and F3115)?
Look here and "Networks":
http://www.xperiablog.net/specifications/2016-xperias/xperia-xa/
And if I look here Vodacom SA uses LTE B3 for 4G:
https://www.frequencycheck.com/carriers/vodacom-south-africa
To confirm your problem if you look here you will see that only F3111 and F3115 will have 4G on Vodacom SA:

Hi there, i see what you mean, like u said, check and make sure next time, haha. Thank you in anycase. Just a quick question, if i flash it with 4g compatible device ROM like F3111 or F3115 u think it will work?

You can try but it will probably brick your device or Flashtool will not let you flash it (never tested). Firmwares are not unified probably for a good reason. Maybe an other user can confirm if it works or not

I don't want to break your hopes but the problem is not your network provider so changing some lines in build.prop will not enable LTE Band 3 on your device. It's a modem feature (or maybe related to modem firmware if you are lucky) so it's on the hardware side of your phone. You can try but I know the result The better way is to know if modem chips are same on all XA Single Sim and, if yes, try to flash the modem firmware from a F3111 or F3115.

Cool, will investigate and try that. Thank a lot

Flashing ROMs from F3111 or F3115 to F3113 is not a good idea. Like @rrvuhpg said it can brick your device. My advice is to send it back and ask for different model (if they have it, because you have warranty). There is also a possibility to change just baseband, but I don't have expirience in extracting baseband. I remember that when I used Huawei G510 I flashed MIUI rom with Chinese baseband and then developer added one small .zip file to flash it for other regions and it worked (but I changed that ROM because it takes too much resources for a that phone). So try contacting some senior developer or google for it, but do this if you can't change your phone, because you will lose warranty if you root phone.

Thank you guys I will definitively try some of you're advice's, thanks again....... Will give feedback asap. have a good one..
