So I have a Z Fold 2 I bought on ebay. I believe its a Verizon device however the model number is SM-F916U1, and I know Verizon unlocks their devices after 60 days. I've had the phone for about 45 days now. Well whenever I try to use my cricket sim card in it it will register on the network just fine and everything works for about 10 to 15 minutes and then it kicks me off the network and locks it up. Do I need to get my phone unlocked or is there something I'm overlooking? Can someone point me in the right direction I've been Googling the hell out of this and can't find an answer.
I would guess it's a stolen z fold did u check the imei? When I bought my z fold 2, i got an empty box from ups. Had to file a police report and everything. I didn't buy from ebay but best buys. I never had a ups package stolen until this phone so if I were to guess the one u bought off ebay might not be good.
Yes that was the first thing I did its not stolen and jts fully paid off.
I'm completely wrong then. Sorry I'm not sure possibly 60 day thing like u said. Can u try a different sims?
Yeah I've tried different sims and they all work except after 15 to 20 minutes it suddenly kicks me off the networks and says network locked. When I first got the phone I put a Verizon postpaid sim into it hoping it would somehow help but idk. The problem here is I don't know when this phone was originally purchased or if it was ever activated on Verizon before I got it in my hands. Is there any way to maybe find that info out?
Most likely you'd need to contact Verizon to get them to unlock it on their end, however since you weren't the original owner, they might refuse to do it.
I did contact them and they said on their end the phone shows as unlocked.
Ever since I purchased this phone back in September I've constantly had issues with my data connection.
Some days are worse than others, but days like today I have to cycle airplane mode every few minutes just to get connected again.
Technical support initially thought it was my SIM so I got the R5 sim but the issue wasn't resolved. I also did the reset of all network connections as well to no avail.
These issues make the phone downright infuriating to use many times a day. Hoping someone can point me in the right direction for a solution
Ive had every note since the 8 and one plus since they offered them on TMobile. I also have the Xperia 1 ii and pixel 4s.
Every single phone beats the Samsung's in signal. It's a Samsung thing.
Don't think it's a Samsung thing! I've had Samsung and Notes since the Note 2 and live in the country quite away from any towers. Still getting 80Mbps on 5G just the same as my OnePlus 7 Pro. Have you checked with T-Mobile and made sure the correct APN is assigned?
Thanks for taking a look. I have an S21, Galaxy Watch 4 (bought directly from Samsung) on A Sprint account with T-Mobile sim in the phone. I went to the sprint/tmo store and they tried everything to get the watch linked. They even rolled me back to a sprint sim and tried. They seemed assured that the watch LTE was working but just would not link. The watch was reset. It still just says searching for the network in the pull down page. Has anyone else seen this issue? I have to determine if I am sending this back or not.
Thanks,

Had the same issue with my sprint note 20 ultra 5g and my watch 4 classic lte. My note is also running a T-Mobile Sim which I initially thought was the problem. When I received the pre-order watch 4 and tried to activate it nothing would work. Paired and reset the watch and phone. Nothing worked so I called sprint. They said that i would need to return the watch to best buy and get another. I decided to wait a few days and see if the IMEI number would pickup and sure enough it did through the Samsung wearable app without the need for CS. I wonder if T-Mobile just has not received the latest updates from Samsung about recently produced devices and their IMEI numbers (just a guess. Maybe I am wrong). This happened to me before when I has bought the first Sony Ericson phone that came with BT. Give it a few days and try again when on a strong T-Mobile signal.
Unfortunatly, that was not the case. I just heard today that they are having issues activating Apple and Samsung watches. I bought a watch directly from Sprint and they still could not get it working. The store has a ticket open with sprint and another with samsung to see if they can get it wokring but so far, 2 watches are not working.
Just got the call from Sprint/Tmo. They give up, even on the watch that they sold me. They are unable to activate the watch on my account. This was almost 10 hours in the store and another 5 hours working with Samsung to get it tested and then agree to take the one I bought on Samsung.com back without a charge. My options are now to buy one that has no LTE or keep the one from Sprint and hope that they will one day be able to get it working. Anyone got a good Sprint store near them in So Cal that might have better techs?
For any one still searching, Verizon and LTE problems on Wacth 4 are huge. I bought my watch new and as of Nov-Dec 2022 this issue is quite bad. 3 times the watch was sent to Samsung itself for repair. They replace the LTE chip the first time, and the main board the second time (who knows if they really did it ! ). 3rd time they tried to fix, and then I requested a full refund. They me back the original retail price. However, it was 2 months of daily agony talking to Verizon and talking to Samsung, sending the watch multiple times etc.
There is a large thread on Verizon forum on the LTE activation problems. The Samsung Watch 4 Classic is having these LTE problems across the spectrum.....it is a lottery depending what works and what doesn't.
Interestingly, I went back to Watch 3 and it did everything instantly on my phone. Go figure !
Is anyone having issues with calls lately? I have 2 S22 Ultras (Exynos) and they both do the same thing. When you are in the middle of a call, whether it is 2 or 3 min in, or 10 min, all of the sudden you dont hear anything anymore but the call is still there. If you hung up and call again, the call doesn't even connect. I literally have to put the phone on Airplane mode, and take it off to reconnect again in order for calls to work again. Both phones are on VDA software.
I had this issue on my snapdragon U1. Apparently my sim card was the culprit. Did you try changing that?

Most probably issue with the network or the sim card. Try getting a new sim card from the provider first
I havent because its happening to both phones, not just one. I'll try giving the provider a call. Thanks.
I have the same problem. I changed the sim card and the problem is still there.

Holy **** that is a very long thread. At least I know Im not alone on this one.
Not having issues with calls going out during. But do have an issue with randomly phone calls/sms cease to work until reboot.
Hi All,
Just received my new P7P and I absolutely love it except that the cell signal drops all over the place and the speeds go down with it. I SIM swapped over from an iPhone 13 mini on ATT. Did I get a bum phone and should I swap for another or do I need to call ATT and have them add the IMEI to their system? Right now it just shows up as an unknown phone on the account page. I thought maybe that would fix the issue but have no idea. My 13 mini and Galaxy S20 FE both have solid full bars as normal but not this P7P.
I purchased the P7P from Amazon, unlocked if that matters. Shipped and sold by Amazon, not renewed.
Thanks all for taking the time to add any input.

Did you take the day one update that's available? Mine was having issues out of the box but after that update it's been mostly fine.
They work fine on AT&T, the GE2AE model, so it's not that.
I am on the latest update. I did fully reset the phone today and the same is happening. I am going to request a replacement and try the new unit.
Thanks for the reply. I appreciate it.
I decided to just return it...too many things I didn't like.
Thanks for the replies though and use of the forum.
