Hi all,
I have a strange problem with a brand new Samsung J3 2017. It runs on Android 7.0 and everything seems work just fine, except the Wi-Fi. Problem is basically that i suddenly get the message " internet may not be available" but it seems to just work even tho i get this error.
I get this error about 4 x a day and i really do have to switch WiFi OFF and ON again to get internet. I have tested 2 Samsung J330F phones behind severial routers. My other Samsung phone (s7) doesnt have this problem behind the same routers
Does someone maybe has a tip for me ?
I could maybe flash the phone with a stock android version but then i would lose warranty.
I did tested a factory reset twice

Please help e out. I just bought my Samsung galaxy sII, version 4.0.3, baseband XXLPQ. Sometime i turn off my Wifi and after a while i tried many ways to turn wifi on. It was not working. It showed wife scanning even though i stayed next to my router, It only can be solved by restart my phone. What should i do?
Hi guys, I lost my phone the note 5 like a week ago, still hoping I might get it back so in the meantime my primary phone has just been the S2. The good thing is that even though my phone is lost I still get my calls forwarded to the watch.
Unfortunately I don't have a backup phone so that I can update the Gear S2, anyone had any luck getting the latest update through others means like mobile Odin?
What latest update?
Hey everyone,
I've never really been into the whole flashing deal and I'm also pretty new to the xda-forums so pls don't hurt! :angel:
Anyway, so live in Germany and imported myself an S6 Dual Sim Version via Amazon, so that I could have Internet both there and at home in Ausria at all times. It had a Russian Baseband and CSC but it worked and filthy casual that I am I really didn't mind until now. It's a really weird issue, so sorry that the post turned out pretty long. I haven't found any similar common 6.0.1 Bugs, however I'm not even completely sure if it really is a problem of the updated OS anymore...
So here's the deal.
In Germany I got the prompt to update to Marshmellow 6.0.1 via OTA. Having heard mostly good things about it I downloaded it without really bothering too much about informing myself about any known issues with 6.0.x . After downloading it in Germany my Signal and Mobile Internet worked fine, however I did experience some battery drain in the following days and decided to initialise my phone via Samsung Smart Switch, as I had done with 5.1.1 when I first got the phone because it's cpu never went into sleep mode. Worked out fine then.
Well ever since I did the same thing with my S6 with 6.0.1 the whole dilemma started. Regularly, my phone will show 4G Signal Reception and even full bars, but I am not able to load a webpage or even be called by phone. Wifi works fine, when I have these outages. When I activate flymode and deactivate it again, my reception works again for a couple of minutes, however, the issue will return after 5-10 minutes. Usually even faster when I'm in a moving car or train.
When I switch SIM Cards I can be called on both, but I can't seem to connect to my mobile internet on the Austrian card (can't check on the mobile connection from the german card as roaming is locked by the provider). I went to my austrian network provider and had my sim card replaced, no change. I flashed DBT G920FXXU3DPCA Android 6.0.1 via Samsung Updates hoping that the right baseband would fix it - Nope.
Any of you guys have any other ideas? My last resort is flashing back to 5.1.1 stock. Trying to replace it through Amazon will probably be hard, because the KNOX Counter is tripped. It already was before I flashed 6.0.1, but that doesn't really matter to Amazon I guess. Also the bug is way to specific to replicate anyway, so I'd probably receive the same device back and I don't really know how I could prove via screenshot, etc...
If there's anything I can upload that would help, pls tell. Hoping somebody here might have an idea!
Having similar problems but also with wifi. Any advise appreciated

I have the same problem with cellular reception with my S6 duos G920F. My problem is only with sim slot 2 though. It seems to show full bars but when people call me they are getting me as unreachable.
I recently picked my note pro 12.2 back up after some time sitting unused. I finally got around to getting the flickering screen fixed and want to get back into using the tablet more often. The issue I'm having now is updating to a more recent firmware. I'm unable to even check if I have the most recent firmware because I don't have a Verizon data plan or SIM anymore (long time coming) and it doesn't seem to want to update without that connection. Does anyone have a way to go about updating the tablet manually?
Also, is there anyway that I can flash the Wifi firmware on to the tablet so it ignores the fact that I have the data connectivity and acts like a wifi model? I've rooted multiple phones in the past, and as long as I have a good set of instructions I can do quite a bit but I'm still looking for an answer to this question.
Thank you.
you can use samsung smartswitch for PC: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/app/smart-switch
to get the latest firmware.
just note if you need root, the new versions of 5.1.1 are not yet rootable.
unfortunately this device has a locked bootloader so flashing a non Verizon firmware to get wifi only is not possible currently.
I have noticed if you have a sim card installed with no service (I have a Tmobile sim with no service currently) it drains the battery pretty bad as it keeps looking for service, connecting and then disconnecting.
I turned off mobile data in the settings which fixed that for me.
Thanks for the info. I'll take a look at updating it to the latest firmware. I don't need root, was going to do it if we could flash the wifi firmware.
Hi folks,
I've got my 2S for maybe 2-3 weeks, but found irritating issue..
I use to turn off cellular data connection when I'm not using it. In some cases (maybe 20%) I cannot connect again. The icon is turned on, still no app can connect to internet.
Since I've faced this in the past (on some SGS4 with custom ROM) I'm used to fix it by going into 2G mode, wait until it connects, then change to LTE. Then it works.
I'm running official Global 10.3 ROM (No root etc this time), 6/64, model name M1803D5XA, baseband AT4.0.c2.6-301-0326_0945_62d952e
Anyone knows a fix ?
I guess this https://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-mix-2s/help/mi-mix-2s-lte-4g-bands-connection-t3919534
requires a root, right ?
Like this?
Just found this old thread of mine.
Yes, that was the issue, and I couldn't fix it anywhow (the phone was not tampered with at all, original firmware)
FInally I returned the phone to warranty and got money in return
