Problems with GSM network on Galaxy S22 Ultra
I received my Galaxy S22 Ultra 512GB, Exynos version, over a week before official release date. As I was using the phone I discovered several bugs with my unit, screen blackouts, occasionaly freezes, conversations loosing sound, phon not reachable over GSM network even if my signals was good. I...

Strange. I have no such problems. I had huge problems with the signal in Fold3, it was i.a. reason for replacement with S22U. There are no problems here, the signal is similar to the Note 20U and much better than the Note 10 +, not to mention Fold3. I am still testing it intensively, but so far it is ok.

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?
Hi,
I am not sure whether is this Andorid-related, Samsung modem HW related, or even my ISP host related. Well, let me describe and then move on.
I notice when I am abroad, roaming, that when I go into low signal area and ROAMING (foreign operator) signal is lost, then my phone does not recover back ONLINE when I get back to area with excellent signal. In such situations my phone number will be unavailable even for whole day, if I do not notice. Very annoying, because I need to constantly pull out my glasses to see that tiny signal icon, check signal, whether I ma online or not, and if not, reset. Or use workaround instead of reset, to turn airplane mode ON then back OFF to reset signal, and voila, I am accessible again for calls and messaging.
What I tired already:
first, I checked with my wife, she has LG G7 smartphone AND she is subscribed with another ISP, and she does NOT have any similar problems. we are traveling together to those areas without signal and back to civilization.
then I sent my Samsung Galaxy S10 to service, and of course, they did not find any problems
then I changed my SIM card for new one, but no difference
then I got angry and bought new Samsung S21 Ultra...but first trip abroad, roaming + to areas without singal, same issue again, only me, my wife no problems
So... any idea?
Is it Samsung, my ISP operator (like, maybe they have some weird roaming algos?), or Andorid 10 and 11 bug?
S21 ultra is a terrible phone, it does take nice photos though

s21 poor signal strength
I've just upgraded to the s21 from the s10. Problem is that I now only get 1 bar showing on the signal strength most of the time (including home). On the s10 it was on 3 bars most of the time using the same network and SIM. If I swap the SIM card back to the s10 I get 3 bars showing again I...

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.
Poor Reception from wifi and mobile network too .. I used to get 45 mbps from the same room and from same chair sitting position with my oneplus 7 pro .. now I hardly get 1 or 2 mb .. some times even disconnect ..
I never faced this issue while I was on oneplus 7 pro for 3 years on same router and network ..
I bought my moms iqoo z3 phone for testing .. it even getting 45mbps but my s22 ultra only 2-3 mbps ..
expect this reception I am really happy with the phone .. its very productive <3
I can't change my phone plz let me know if you have any solutions .. I tried resetting etc none solved my issue
after positing regarding this on some fb group I came to know many s22 ultra users facing this issue .. Are you facing the same as well ?? Please let me know below
1) do you have a metal hands?
2) is your hands covered by golden powder?
3) whats is your case?
4) wanna share a wifi scanner app screenshot with us? we are not a mindreaders

I have problems with the mobile reception on my S22 Ultra on Vodafone UK.
I am trying to find out the correct firmware for my provider and to flash it without resetting my phone.
What router do you use, check its settings. Does mobile reception improve when you are outside?
You are using exynos right?
My wife's first S22 Ultra had horrible connection. Most times she couldn't receive or make any calls. That went on for about 2 months. Went back to Tmo and used the warranty and they shipped us another one. The new one works perfectly as it should have.
I would recommend that if you are having connection issues, contact the carrier/customer service and use the warranty,should be a year. In my wife's situation, the connection issue was the beginning of the phone not working at all. Samsung knows about their hardware issue and hasn't addressed it properly. Its a hardware issue
I have not had a issue with reception once since getting this phone from Samsung.. It is on T-Mobile. No issues with my home router either.

I had S22U half year and from few months I was problems with connection, don't recive messages or messages with trying calls for me in t-mobile Poland.
I put sim card to fold 2 and little smaller but again similar problems, change sim card and again.
Then I change my carrier operator and from 2 months everything works perfect with fold 2.
Now my s22U have girlfriend and too everything works good with her carrier (of course no t-mobile)
In my case issues were with t-mobile. I see a lot opinions who have connection issues have t-mobile and does not matter country.

no mate snapdragon edition
US unlocked on TMobile here. I have fantastic reception both on wifi and network.
If you're genuinely getting 1/10th of the speed on your S22U on the same network as other phones, then that sounds like a hardware issue and a warranty replacement.

Then you need to swap the device. If you had Problems with another Smartphone change your carrier. My snapdragon has very good reception. My exynos has weak singal but its okay use it only as Backup phone
Hello, I need help
I have a US S22 Ultra. I unlocked all the 5G bands so I can use 5G Here in the Philippines. This was working for me for a few months now until an update broke it last week. Tried reformatting and flashing the firmware then redoing the instructions and it's still broken.
What's happening now is everytime it switches from 5G to LTE or vice versa both sims loses signal for 10-15s this happens multiple times a day and my battery depletes like crazy and my phone gets hot.
Attached a screenshot below of what it looks like when the signal drops. Using S22 Ultra SM-S908U1 (XAA) with one physical sim and one e sim
Thanks!

After you did all the steps , was the sign showing for 5G or it stayed LTE but with faster download speed?
