Question Cellular/network problems S22 Ultra - Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra

From few mounths I have problems with stability cellular in my phone.- Exynos Europe.
Often anybody write text message for me and i don't recive anything or sender recive raport "fault".
Internet speed is lower compare to my fold 2.
Next sometimes with full bars I recive message with trying anybody call to me.
Connectivity in this phone is very terrible from few mounths without any improvement.
I flashed rom via odin
Replace sim card.
Use only 2g mode or VoLte
Nothing help.
I found similar topic without solving:
S22 Ultra signal/network problems
Hi all, I got the phone last week, since then I couldn't have a decent conversation with it, signal drops all the time but I have full bars, Internet drops in the same time, I cannot listen to a full song on YT, if I'm on Bluetooth with the headsets, Bluetooth connection drops too, basically I...
eu.community.samsung.com
What will i do?
Send to service or waiting to next updates?
Now I use my fold 2 and S22U isn't useful

Sorry mate the fold has the snapdragon which is better in terms of Modem... The Modem on the exynos is faulty sometimes... Try to swap it for a new one

I agree with snap in fold, Exynos is problematic but previous I had few samsung phones with exynos high and mid (Note 5, A8, A5, Note 9, N20U) and I have first time similar problems a lot of time with cellular like in S22U.
So after that I supposed hardware defect in my device. Only thing what can I do is sent to service for replace motherboard or happily all device.
Services in my country are problematic and usually first flash soft via odin then sent back but I must try.

Maybe updates?
Now my S22U have girlfirend A13 and overall looks fine but data transfer sometimes is problematic - low load dates compare to my fold 2 and city centre with good cellular strength, same network

Is your phone exynos? Sadly it have weaker Modem than snapdragon fold..

I found many references to antenna problems in the web for this phone. I think that probably it's a well known problem; probably a HW failure in the antenna. I would send it to repair.

I send it to repair yesterday but i dont know if they found the problem or they just send it back and say that the phone is okay

They exynos Modem is weak... Nothing New sadly... Especially in buildings you can see a difference vs other phones with better Modem like the fold with snapdragon.... I have both s22u exynos (my girlfriend is using it) and s22u snapdragon (mine) both with Telekom and especially in large buildings you See the difference. Also the Modem struggles with poor Signal... More drain also. In wlan both phones are the same...

Exactly. Now my S22U use girlfiriend and 2 weeks ago in city centre my fold 2 ( my best device in basic function like GSM connection comapre to previous Exynos devices N5>N9>A5 2017, A8 2018- only Note 20U was good but battery life was too bad, even 2 year note 9 had better results) fast connect to data transfer and S22U have problem to load website - same carrier. Maybe only sometimes see similar issue in her S22U but she can irritating.
I am interesting S23 series in this cause like cellular connection and stability.

The s23 will have snapdragon worldwide so very good Modem for everyone also made by TSMC so less heating more speed and better battery )

The last direct SD/Exy comparison I did myself was with two Note 10, it was frequency dependent. +- 3dB on one and +-3dB on the other. Therefore I started wondering why it's that extreme on _Grizzly_s device.
In addition he says his Note 20 was fine regarding signal quality, the S22u not (I assume both Exynos). If I check dBm values measured in the Weka lab, I see:
N20U TX
GSM
20,4 25,4
LTE
17,2 18,9 17,6
N20U RX
GSM
-98 -105
LTE
-95 -96 -93
S22U TX
GSM
21,6 25,4
LTE
17,2 20,0 18,5
S22U RX
GSM
-100 -107
LTE
-95 -95 -92
Therefore my assumption would be that his S22U has a defect.

Cell data reception (anecdotal)

I had a longer, more detailed post, then accidentally refreshed the page... :good:
Bottom line was my S6 has reverted to 3G a few times over the weekend in places where it shouldn't. I've owned all the VoLTE devices on Verizon so far, and none of them did this. Data is also very slow at times. It could be a fluke - maybe VZW was tweaking some stuff locally over the weekend. But it feels eerily similar to when LTE was first introduced back in 2011 and so many of those early LTE devices had problems managing LTE and 3G.
That combined with the, so far, completely inconsistent battery life with cell standby issues has me a bit concerned. I love this phone overall - it feels like the total package. I hope this (and battery) isn't its one glaring weakness.
I'm just curious what other Verizon users' experience has been so far.
Same here

I noticed the same thing a few times on my VZW S6 Edge. A web page would load super slow or it would be on 3g, when my note 4 never had this issue. Part of it could be the fact that Samsung went from using qualcomm chips for the radios to in house chips. Qualcomm has been making and updating radio chips for practically every Mfgs phones for years. I'm thinking samsung just doesnt have the experience that Qualcomm does. Hopefully its just a matter of a firmware update.

The VZW and SPRINT versions actually have QCOM modem chips as opposed to their own Shannon modem. The Antenna configuration and other parts are completely different from other phones or previous Samsung phones.

Ahh, thanks for clarifying. I read that they used their own chips instead of QCOM. Guess the CDMA variants are different. I assumed that could be part of the problem.

Every model is somewhat different. My S4 gets decent LTE reception while my wife's S5 switches to 3G in the same place. It's also the the S/W on the phone. The Lollipop update on the phones have been lowering the connection quality in my opinion. The S5 had better reception when on 4.4.x
my 2 cents
I also noticed this. At home, I have fair LTE connectivity usually around -105 to -115dBm, and on my previous G3 I always remained connected to LTE. Now on the S6, I have similar signal levels but it often drops to 3G or even 1x.

Yes, this exactly. My signal level is "normal", but it's switching to 3G. That makes me think it's a software tweak, which is good I guess. But I still hate the similar feeling to 2011...

I am having the same experience. Areas that were very strong 4G LTE on both my S4, S5 and even an iPhone 6 are switching to 3G. This is very disheartening to me and hope very much so its a software tweak and not because of a larger hardware issue.

I know in the past, the hand-off to 3G too "early" was typically software related... but if the radio is weak (which I'm not convinced is the issue), software tweaks might only go so far.
Mine goes from LTE to 1x. Don't even see 3G. Lol
So just now I'm driving home and talking with my wife like I do every day of the week through the exact same area. On previous devices the LTE signal was weaker through this area (normally 2 bars depending on the phone), but I've never had any problems. Today, with the S6, my wife kept complaining that I was cutting out a lot. I looked down and had that first little dot of a bar and that's it. Within a minute or so the call completely dropped. I'm always frustrated with Verizon's handling of VoLTE, but this doesn't help the case for the S6 either.

I to have noticed my S6 on 3G a lot, I have dropped about 4 calls today to..That is not normal, together with the poor battery life I'm thinking this sucker is probably going back.

Love the size, feel and screen. Another thing that happens is it will power off overnight while charging... How's that going to work if I depend on it for alarms?
Again this morning... dropped to 3G twice - once on my way to work (dropped call) and for about 15 minutes in my office. Both places that, historically, have never had any issues (edit: though they are places where LTE isn't the strongest - but never have I dropped to 3G). It's only a problem about 10% of the time, but it's a frustrating 10%, and a 10% I haven't had to deal with in a LONG time.
I have a friend who works for Samsung mobile US. From what he is telling me they are aware of the issue and are already planning a software release. It's noted in the bug fixes as "Radio Attenuation" It's already with Verizon for testing and approval, but doesn't have a firm release date because we all know how Verizon is with software releases.
He actually said this is due to the shorting testing period with vzw this launch.
So here is hoping this is resolved via a software update and not a longer standing hardware issue.
Quick question, is the S6 single antenna?
I'm guessing the S6 Edge is like the other Edge. Screen takes away an antenna.
This is disgusting from my point of view. From the exact same spot I generally pull between 18Mbs to 20Mbs... religiously for over a year on an S5 OR S4.
Why in the he'll is it so hard to get a phone right? They did everything else right with this phone and launch and now we have take. 2 generations steps backwards with the radios.

Weak phone signal strength

As per title, i'm only getting 2 out of 5 bars for carrier signal. I live in an urban area so cell reception is not an issue. Previous phone had no issues whatsoever.
Note is using an esim, would this affect anything?
Info: Carrier is Optus (Aus)
It shouldn't but perhaps also try a physical sim as a process of elimination.
What's your signal like away from home as it could be a mast issue.
Also try resetting your network connection in settings.
A Samsung Experience Store or Samsung Service Centre can take a look.

Haven't tried your first 2 suggestions but will do it soon.
Have reset network connection, no change.
No Samsung centre/store where I live unfortunately.
Are you measuring the bars on the status bar as your guide , if so then it's flawed method. Signal strength is measured in -dbm . Use an app like Network signal info lite to compare the actual figures with the past devices.
I had to go to Verizon and get a new sim card after the 5G update no more issues with my signal.
Its a normal thing for Samsung's. They've had weaker signals compared to other phones since the note 9. I have all the note variants and I have 4 lines I use with one plus, sony and note 10+ and n20u, samsung easily has the worst signal.
I've upgraded from note 9 to the note 20 ultra 5g
Noticed the 2 signal bars myself on the note 20
Were as my note 9 was always full bars everywhere I went i would get a good reception esp for the net it never let me down
im on three uk
Over the past few days on my note 20.. Internet has been ****e and slow.
I've tried changing from 5g to 4g still same
Been on phone to three had a replacement sim activated.. still same ...maybe give it a day to settle down..
My dbm are - 112 I'm a rural area near Manchester...
Reading around about these readings that's pretty naff.. have I got this wrong the lower dbm supposed be better than a higher reading?
For those wondering.. settings> about phone>status> sim card status.....
I've 2 more days before I have the 14 days cancel return..
I'm just wondering if the signal bars a myth only being 2
Am I over looking things ?
Other than the signal I have no issues love this phone ..
Any input will be taken on board and appreciated
Thanks for looking and helping

My dBm would also hit the lows of -114dbm as well at my place of residence. Both the snapdragon and exynos models I’ve owned. The Oneplus 8 pro showed on average 6dBm gain .
Well it appears my phone is faulty had nothing but issues today and it happened whilst on to my provider three UK..
Onkybhd it 2 weeks tried making me taking it to Samsung.. he'll noo ..I know they'll say nowt wrong with ot as per usual
. Three re sending me a replacement handset tomorrow.. if that's ****e as well.
Looks like I shall have to look else were always had sammy..
Had anyone got any good advice what I should get next best / alternative to a note 20..
I'm.not that familiar with other bands as I've always been faithful with Samsung..

I already mentioned it. Oneplus 8 Pro model IN2023 since you're in the UK, else you'll have network incompatibilities.
Hi all hope we're safe and well
Just a quick update
New phone received yesterday
So far so good Signal working perfect now
Thanks for input limey
Looked at the one plus looks a decent piece of kit
May go down that road after I've finished with this note 2 years time haha

Question Pixel 7 Pro losing cellular connection and unable to reconnect

I live in Boston metro area with abundant LTE/5G coverage, but drive through two nearly dead zones, each of them lasts just a few seconds. My previous phone would not stop YouTube playback going through those areas. My Pixel 7 Pro loses connection for ~5 minutes completely and then reconnects via EDGE even though strong 5G is available. I have to toggle the airplane mode for it to connect to the correct network.
I'm on Mint/T-Mobile and this has been happening every day. Is it a software bug or is my Pixel defective? Thanks for any ideas, I still have a week to decide if I should return it
I used to have this same exact issue with my pixel 6 pro and wouldn't be fixed no matter what I did. I traded it in for my p7p and haven't had that issue since. You should replace it while you can and hopefully it won't happen again
I have the same problem. Whenever there's a slight interruption of service the Pixel can't reconnect for minutes. I have to enable and disable airplane mode a couple times.
Bonus, if I just leave it it disconnects from the network randomly. I miss A LOT of calls. And people tell me that the calls take a long time to connect either way.
I'll be returning it if it doesn't get an update in a week or so.

I don't know if this will help, but...
I believe EDGE uses 2G. Maybe turn off "Allow 2G" in Settings>Network & internet>Sims>Allow 2G. Hopefully this will stop it from connecting to EDGE and instead connect back to your strong 5G or LTE.
Thanks, I'll give it a shot.
It still takes a long time before it connects to the 2G network and all I see is an exclamation mark next to zero bars.
If you have taken the .031 update, which fixed that issue for me, then it's possible you may have a defective unit. I have had zero issues with signal handoff and I'm even taxing the modem even more by running dual SIM in DSDS mode. I have been incredibly happy with this device's reception. I would even say it's been better than my OnePlus 9 with the X60 modem as 5G standby drained my battery super fast, about 1.6%/hr in a high signal area, compared to half that on my 7 Pro with dual SIM active.
The system is up to date. Not sure what else I can do. I'm not interested in installing unstable nightly updates.

I got my phone on release day and there was an update waiting to go to TD1A.220804.031. Until I took that update I was seeing that ! every 10 minutes or so. It was pretty bad. Haven't seen it since unless I'm switching my SIMs around.

Oh I'm on the beta as Android Auto wouldn't work on that one. It got better after I reset Carrier Services but it still has issues.
I'm losing calls, they just don't connect, even on 4G LTE with full bars. A friend has the same thing. These things are not ok.

I'm on the beta as well and still having no connectivity problems so I guess I should consider myself lucky. The worst I have is some outsized drain when I have a weak signal but it's still not terrible (about 2.2%/hr in my partner's basement).

This issue happens to me from time to time too. Weird but mine shipped with .031 (picked up on 10/21 at best buy). But I guess it was worse before that.
Were you able to fix this? I have the same issue, the phone is just unusable. Such a shame as I really like the device...
I came from a OnePlus 8 Pro (what a great phone BTW), and found the Pixel 6 Pro had worse connectivity. The Pixel 7 Pro seems to have fixed all that and some bluetooth issues I was having with certain headsets on the Pixel 6 Pro.
One trick on any modern 5G phone -- if you are having issues -- the switching between 5G, 5G UC, and LTE can be disruptive. If this is constantly happening just switch it to LTE, chances are you'll get better reception and at the same or even faster speeds.
For example, a Six Flags a few weeks ago, 5G was constant problems while forcing LTE worked fine 100% of the time.
I've tried switching off 5g, switching off 2g, switched off adaptive connectivity...no results, still useless

How about your APN settings? Have you tried a network reset? If none of those things helps you may have a defective phone! It can happen with any brand.

Yes, tried resetting the APN as well, also swapped esim and sim to another phone and works flawlessly...it may be a defective unit but there are many users complaining so there has to be a lot of defective units...

Well, I am not using an esim with a psim. Only a psim here and running on Mint (T-Mobile) and I have zero issues. Either some setting, or conflicting network settings between the two sims...OR a defective phone is your issue. I would bet dimes-to-dollars that it is NOT the phone. YMMV
Hmm happy to see i am not alone...... I have already post on this forum for this same pb.
I am full 4G....i try to make a call, instantly when i push call button, lose connection....must wait and maybe 4G and more in EDGE.
When i am in 4G impossible to call or receive....
So i have a phone with impossible to call or receive.......
SO NICE ????
For me, i am sure is the last F/W (31) who suck.
Why ?
Because, my phone work, after upate (31) just after reboot must wait 7 min to have network...never before....
SO last week end, i will downgrade to first F/W (A2)
Problem is solved for me.
I have locked all automatic update in developper menu.
Sometimes i have notification for update, but i don't care..........
Incredible but work for me, i think you must try...i don't see another solution for this ****ing problem
I had use the official tool : https://flash.android.com/
Sounds like a work around, how do you downgrade?

Question network signal - weak

hello ,
i have s22 ultra and I have al the time the signal is very weak !!
at home 1 and in malls it seems to be 0 and all most of the time 2 or 3 bars only
I use 4g lte network
any suggestions or mod or setting to rise it up or to know the problem !
( I try the sim with other mobile its better then the s22
Call your provider, and have them do a network refresh.. I had to do that when switching from Sprint to T-mobile on my S9+. I could not get data to save my life, and had a lot of dropped calls.. Once the refresh was done, all issue went away and have not had a single since.
move to MINT mobile

do you have the exynos version because samsungs own modem is not as good as the x65 modem on snapdragon
Both WiFi and phone signals, are much weaker than my previous OP7+
my S22 Ultra has a remarkably better signal levels, cellular, wifi, gps than my previous device, a Note 10+, full bars almost at all times all over the city, even in malls or inside buildings, my devoce is snapdragon

Are there some measurements available or is it just what Qualcomm promotes?

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
