[Q] - JB update & 3G

hello there ...
i have question about JB update and lost 3G connection : is it possible to get 3G working again without RMA ?
and that's the story behind this :
after buying this device i got an automated OTA update for ICS on the first switching on. after this the system was very instable, so that some programs wouldn't install/start in the first, and android itself very often crashed at last. so i red many threads here, how to make a clean reinstallion of ICS. here where very good noob-friendly guides , so that my device runs very fine after that, only with one exception; the 3G modem. it find all providers in my area, but it won't connect to anything. the only message i got is "Cannot connect at the moment, please try again later !". at this point i decided to change to JB (after testing it with several SIM-cards), with the hope to get it working again. but that was a false conclusion; it never comes back to fully functionality. the rest of all works on opposite very good now.
edit: i've not rootet or installed any custom recovery on my tf300tg.

if its not a simcard issue (check if it works with other phones) I think that your tablet is defective, not a software issue.

Sir there is already a thread that you can discuss your problems here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928865
Thanks and

How to setup as a mini tablet?

I just found out that I'm headed overseas for a year. I'd like to take my One M8 with me, but there is no Verizon in the Middle East. Is there anyway to disable the cellular data on the phone? I'd like to still use Bluetooth, GPS and WIFI.
Thanks in advance.

Pretty sure I might have seen an xposed module for this purpose. Putting it in airplane mode and then turning back on WiFi and Bluetooth does it too.

The only thing I've read won't work is GPS.
I'll look for a module. Thanks.
*EDIT* NVM, all 3 work with airplane mode on. [emoji3]

I regularly fly and use my phone in airplane mode. I have an aviation charts app called avare and it works fine with GPS in airplane mode. Altitude and position reported are spot on.

I have no idea if there is a workaround or some way to turn the feature off but I just wanted to say that I find it annoying as well. Especially at night when you're just about to turn off all the lights and then this thing decides to turn on.

Cataclysm rom can disable that

BeaconBle_WakeLock

I am getting this wakelock, BeaconBle_WakeLock which is draining my battery at times fairly quickly. Its on and off and I don't seem to figure out the exact reason why it happens. Betterbatterystats shows that it is due to Google Play Services. Has anyone else faced this issue and was able to resolve?
Attaching some screenshots as well-

I am getting it too on my galaxy note 5(extreme debloated rom)

Same for my on my (non-rooted) Galaxy S7. Any help appreciated...
Beacon_Ble seems to be somehow connected to Bluetooth connections.
It seems to me, however, that Wakelocks are significantly reduced after switching off location services.
I disabled a lot of stock bloatware with package disabler. Perhaps that's somehow the issue here...

Same Problem Here. S6 edge plus, verizon, stock rom. In my case, I have noticed the beacon ble wakelock after disconnecting from my car audio system. Stays on, not too much luck stopping it without a reset. Toggling bt on and off has mixed results. I'm going to try turning bluetooth without connecting to anything to see if I still get the issue.
UPDATE- Yeah. I definitely get the wakelock after toggling bluetooth off.

Looks like we have to live with it

Having a DATA sim causes battery to drain very fast (Cell Standby)

I made a previous thread where I tried to force LTE to solve my Cell Standby issue. In the end I couldn't figure out a way to do this on a non-rooted phone.
Until recently I found an app Network Mode that allowed me to select "LTE only" which I thought would solve the problem of my phone wasting his battery to finding a GSM connection (which I guess the problem is).
Cell Standby is currently still on the top with usage, but it dropped from 70-85% to 50%.
But I want it to drop more, is there anything else I can do to test to find what causes him to use this much battery, and possibly disable it?
PS. I don't have this problem when I put my Belgian SIM in my phone which isn't limited to internet data.

Bump

I tried to contact Google, they sent me to Samsung. Samsung said it's a stock android problem so sent me back, placed the bug on their bug system but no response yet. Anything I can try myself while waiting?

Last bump, I promise. I'm stuck between two companies and my phone can't survive a day.
