Galaxy s6 sm-d920i no tethering after 5.1.1 - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Well i was using a ROM from India (im from Brazil) and it was working perfect the 5.1.1.
But my wifi was bad, had a lot of delay before it start opening a page, took minutes to receive messages from whatsapp and messenger and after some time i found that i was using the version from india, not the ZTO from brazil. So i got from sammobile the right stock one and installed it on top of my previous installation.
Few days ago my home internet went down and i tried to use my phone to tether my 4g, it creates the tethering without any problem or error but other devices wont see the hotspot, and i made sure it wasnt marked to hide SSID.
It seems like, he thinks he created it but it never start to broadcast.
Anyone had something like that ? Any idea ?

Constant "Emergency calls only" and no signal

Heyho,
about three weeks ago, my N5 suddenly lost it's signal over night and shows me "Emergency calls only" and it won't register into any network, just giving "Selected network unavailable".
When this occured my N5 had 4.4.2 stock ROM and rooted. I've unrooted it and updated to 4.4.4, but I still got the same problem.
Problem occurs with any simcard, while simcard works with other phones just fine.
Have deleted and reconfigured APN, but didn't make any difference.
I get a signal every few days, but I still can't receive text/calls or call/text anyone and my mobile data doesn't work.
I even tried to downgrade to 4.4, but that didn't solve my problem either...
I'm from Germany, but in New Zealand at the moment, so I really need my phone in case of emergencies and to stay in touch with family/friends.
I have been searching for a solution since it started, but have not been able to find anything that worked.
Sending it back to Google isn't an option right now because I am travelling.
I am really thankfull for any suggestions or if anyone knows how to fix this problem!
Cheers
Have you checked to make sure the network setting says 2g/3g/LTE preferred. Because I had this problem when it was switched to 2g only and was fixed by the above option
If the above fails trying going to your dialer and typing *#*#4636#*#*. Go into phone information and you should see a drop down box to select your network mode. Play around with those until you get a signal but you might not want to try CDMA options (WCDMA is ok) since you're on a GSM network.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
had exactly the same issue as you mentioned. Nexus 5 tends to lose network without any logical explanation and it tends to work at one place but stop showing network if you walk half a mile down the road (or may not show any network anywhere). Google has released an update in June in which they have updated the modem to solve the problem..given that I am in India and the June update was for India, Australia and Newzeland, it worked like a charm for me (all i had to do was flash the modem from twrp)..people as far away as netherlands have reported the modem to work for them..
NOTE: IF U INTEND TO FLASH THE LATEST MODEM, DO NOT FORGET TO TAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR CURRENT MODEM PRIOR TO FLASHING THE NEW ONE..
check your sim card. if you can, try someone elses.
Alright,
I've tried every thing again so far, but nothing seems to work.
Sitting in the library, I noticed that I get a signal, when connected to WiFi, which stays for 1-2 hours after disconnecting.
But I still can't make any calls or text and mobile data doesn't work though the APN is correctly configured and and data enabled.
I really hope to be able to solve this problem somehow, don't want to put aside my beloved N5 :/

Edit: Haven't found any solution so far and bought a new phone for the moment until I'm able to send it back to Google.
Might be an hardware issue and not software related.

No internet connection even I have LTE/WiFi enabled

Recently I have ran into weird problem. My internet was working fine until yesterdays afternoon. I had LTE on and suddenly it stopped loading anything. Browser didnt load any page, fb didnt refresh et cetera. I tried to reboot system over and over but it also didn't work. And magically suddenly it started to work again. At this time internet is working, but I am afraid it will stop in the most anticipated moment. All above also applies to any WiFi network. What can I do? I have flat S6 running XstreoLite, based on COI9 newest firmware (modem is also COI9).

Anyone Still on MM 6.0.1

I'm running Nougat but I've not been happy with the battery life. I'd like to odin back down to the last MM update. I shouldn't have a problem because it uses version 4 of the BL. When I check TMO's support site for the S7 they call the Nougat update "manditory". So my question is has anyone been able to stay on MM unrooted and not been forced to take the update?
I have a G930U always on wifi but no sim. It downloaded the update a while back and does push it about once a day, but I keep saying later and it goes away for a day.. I also have a S7 Edge which went to Nougat, I have not seen battery life issue per-say, but it does seem "clunkier" seems even more "stock" features are hidden by default, and most frustrating is I now have the wifi issue: "Wifi Connected, No Internet" - "Wifi Calling enabled" .. huh? It seems to sometimes work on wifi data and sometimes "choose" mobile, I've used more mobile data than ever because of this and it worries me that I may have missed calls..

G930u no network after updating to oreo

Hi,
I have a g930p running g930u Nougat firmware. I did an OTA update to Oreo and was not able to connect to my network after.
I'm in Canada and on Public Mobile which is owned by Telus.
I can see Telus, Bell, Rogers, and Freedom when I do a manual network search, but cannot connect to any of them.
I did some research, and I'm wondering if there are some issues with MVNO's.
My IMEI is present, so I don't think there is an issue there.
I was able to use Odin to downgrade back to Nougat. Everything works fine on Nougat.
I tried manually flashing the latest g930u oreo firmware after, and no luck. A factory reset did not help either.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Same Issue here
Hello,
I seem to have a very similar issue.
Ever since the most recent update (to Oreo 8.0.0) my Samsung Galaxy S7 will not connect to mobile networks. The network symbol shows full four bars most of the time (sometimes the crossed out circle), however never indicators for mobile internet. I don't receive texts or whatsapp messages, neither can I send them, the browser says I'm offline. I can't be called and when trying to make calls, after a split second I get a prompt "Not registered on network" and the call ends.
Internet usage works just fine when using Wifi.
Also, the issue only occurs on default network settings: When I go to settings->connections->mobile networks->network mode and select "2G only", the phone functions as I would expect it to do. All other modes don't work.
Things I've tried without any form of success:
Flight mode on/off
Several reboots
Wiping the cache
Manually searching for network operators (keeps on scanning forever)
Resetting network settings
Resetting my phone to factory settings
Unfortunately I can't cross check my SIM-card with other phones or other SIM cards on my device. Since I've been using both for almost 2 years now, however, I don't think those are the issue.
Device: Samsung Galaxy S7 32GB
Android Version: 8.0.0
Product Code: SM-G930FZKADBT
Baseband version: G930FXXU2ERGC
Build number: R16NW.G930FXXU2ERGE
Network Provider: Mobilcom debitel (Via D2 network, Germany)
I really hope somebody has an idea for a solution, this unnecessary issue renders the phone mostly unusable :/
Hi
A UK user here, I have been experiencing some of the same issues that you have both mentioned. For me however periodically my phone will stop recieving network signal from my phone operator '3' and have completely no signal. This has been happening for a few months now and has happened since the last major update. In attempting to solve the issue, I often reset my phone multiple times to no avail and I simply have to wait until the phone starts to recieve signal again! Very frustrating!
I am not using any type of custom OS currently (or ever previously) and that was my main motivation to join this site, to jailbreak my phone and see if I can overcome these issues through custom fireware or alternatively installing older firmware where this problem did not exist.
The problem is widespread, a simple google of the issue or a visit to the Samsumg forum and you'll find plenty of users reporting the same problem, however Samsung seems to be doing nothing about it. Honestly, I am disgusted! I paid a lot of this phone on its release two years ago and I have simply been forgetten about and no one seems to care at Samsung to provide a solution or any information at all.
Best,

Weird Network Problem

Just bought Violet few days ago and facing network problems.
The net works fine normally but sometimes it doesn't seem to work. Even Google homepage doesn't load at all.
For eg: In the morning I downloaded a 300 MB file, which took just 7 mins to download. But it takes 45+ mins to send a 100kb video on WhatsApp.
Surprisingly, if open the hotspot and use the net on other phone it works just fine. Even the WiFi works nicely. Hence the problem might be in the software.
Network is Jio.
Using latest MIUI 11.0.8 Pie
Tried resetting APN, going to telephony settings and set network mode to LTE only.
