If it doesn't happen again it must be a glitch in the at&t system. Or you just needed to reboot your phone.

Dude I am getting the same thing. Just happened for the second time. If I put SIM back in my S3 all my messages come in...IDK what is going on. I have even reflashed Omega ROM but no luck, only thing that works is if I put my SIM in another phone....
Need a solution cause if I have to do this every two days it is gonna get real annoying.

[Q]Delayed SMS problems?

Is anybody else having issues with other people getting delayed texts sent from galaxy s ii?
I am sending to att iPhone and they have been getting delayed texts. Never had issue with HTC sensation so I am assuming this is a galaxy s ii issue.
Can Anyone confirm this?

Mine are not delayed... Sent to my roommate's iPhone 4 when he was sitting next to me on the couch. I love Swype's censoring when you use speech to text. I think my message went something like:
"Why do you keep f****** keep censoring my *** d*** texts you piece of s*** keyboard!!"
That was the end of my childish exploits, but hey, he wanted to see the feature
if you got your sim card upgrade they there might be some delay for awhile. should be fine after 30min-1hr.

Is it on wifi this whole time?
I tried both. Wifi and 4g. Same result. My gf is on att and had been getting them delayed. If I swap my sum Sim to sensation, the problem is gone so it has to be gsii and how it sends SMS.

I think I have the same thing happening. It's hit or miss though not every message is delayed. Btw the gf is also on att.
Same thing happening here. Most texts go through fine, but some have been delayed, or didn't ever show up. I'm going to call T-Mobile tomorrow...
I am using my old Sim from Sensation. Are you guys using the old Sims or new Sim that came with galaxy ii. Just curious If that might be a issue.

Oh ok. I just went to Tmobile and
got the new Sim which is required for sgii. Let's see if this resolves the problem. Will keep you guys updated.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
any updates? Co-worker just got a GS2 and is having a delay on incoming texts, not so much with outgoing. We're both on tmo, i sent him 3 texts about 15 minutes apart took him around 3 hours for the first one and never got the other 2 before we left work, if he sends me one comes through immediately.
that's a service provider network problem, not a PHONE problem
if i sent to people on the same network, they receive it instantly
if i sent to people on a different network, they get it in a second or two

Any resolution to this issue?
For me the problem resolved itself, but I ended up getting a new SIM card from T-Mobile anyway, just to be on the safe side. It doesn't happen to me anymore.

[Q] What do you think??

Here's what has happened....
I purchased my SGS2 Saturday April 14th, I rooted it same day, I flashed TDJ Warefare. I noticed on the 4th day after getting my phone my calls started to drop like crazy. Like every other call was dropping or they couldn't hear me. So I called Tmo they walked me through troubleshooting, that didn't help. Took it back to the store where I purchased it this past weekend the sales rep said it sounds like it's a bad sim card. Ok so they changed my sim (of course I rooted again tried Jugganuats this time) and the phone was working fine until yesterday it starting dropping calls. SO I took the phone back and they switched it with a new one.
I would like to know from you all should I try rooting again?
Please don't flame me for asking this question or if it's in the wrong section of the forum.
I would just like your honest opinion as to what If I should or not and if I do, is there a solution to the dropped calls????
Thanks all
Rooting has nothing to do with your dropped calls. your first phone was defective.

I did I have a new one now. I was asking should I root again? I just don't want my calls to start dropping again.
Let me ask you since it's not the rooting what do you think it could be??
Did you do a factory reset before taking it back?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA
Rooting will not affect the signal or radio. Would suggest that, stay on stock ROM for a week or so and see if you get drop calls. If not, then try another ROM and if you get drop calls after that so it has to do with the ROM.

Yes I unrooted, factory reset and format internal sdcard just to be on the safe side. I didnt any personal stuff on there.

Sometimes its the simplest things, but make sure your SIM is in the right way or just reinsert it. Make sure data is enabled and you have an APN

You should probably exchange it if you within the warranty period. It might be defective
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Had this happen to me not too long ago. Tried everything. Ended up having to do a warranty exchange. The phone lost signal one day while I was using it and it never got it back. I had the phone in this state for almost 2 weeks while I used a back up phone and it never got signal back so I sent it off. Now my new phone has a defective microphone.

[Q] Very weak signal on Note II. Radio Help?

Hey XDA Fam bam!
I have the T-mobile branded Note II and i'm experiencing the following problem:
Very weak signal.
Here's a little background. I rooted the phone and installed pmtr3 first V1 Rom and everything was perfect.
Then played around with other roms too and then the signal went every weak.
Then when I went back to pmtr3's first rom my signal did not improve. I would lose connection
everywhere. I replaced my tmo sim card, but I still experience this problem. I also went back to my stock nandroid backup, but it still did not help my signal problem.
Is there some sort of radio or modem I can flash? Am I the only one experiencing this problem?
I'm thinking it can be a hardware problem, but Idk. What input do you have my XDA fam bam?

Xda users are probably the reason for most handset returns....period. user error

That may be the case for most, but not this time. I received my replacement and did the exact same thing to it. Turns out the original was a defective device. I'm enjoying my replacement Note II now

Most problems FROM xda members devices are caused by user error. E.G. wrong roms. Not reading before doing stuff and trying to do too much. Its all over the forums. Maybe you havent read the same forum im talking about. Im talking about xda developers.
P.s. please no more pm's you are killing me. I try to read them but I just cant make it through some of them. I have to delete them.

Uh oh, well just in case, I saved them here:
http://pastebin.com/eUBHLqNY if anyone else is interested.
Well I waited in line for an hour at my tmo store and got a new sim card as they claimed that would solve the data issue. But I also made them process an exchange. So I should have my new one tuesday. No more rooting until the problems solved.

[Q] random lost signal, t-mobile note 2

I am on MyRom 7.1 and I am randomly losing my data signal. I have flashed the newest lte modem with no change.
It will come back on a few hours later. Has anyone had this problem or maybe even found a fix for this?? thanks in advance!!

Im no pro, but if it's dropping and coming back in a couple hours I would say it's a network problem. Usually maintenance or an upgrade (maybe you'll be seeing lte soon

I thought that also, but my wife has gs3 on tmobile and she had service at the time of my dropped service.. maybe a bad download of modem? I will re download and flash again.

Started happening to me on cm10 recently.. What I do is toggle cdma/gsm/lte to something else then back to whatever it was on.. Sometimes that alone does the trick.. Other times I have to do that And reboot

Could be. I have not updated them yet. I will see if it causes the issue again
dropped data
i've also been having problems w/ dropped data. on the stock roms i don't have any problems but i prefer the aosp roms and it seems like everytime i've used a variant of an aosp rom, i would lose data intermittently. it's very frustrating b/c i really want to get away from a touchwiz based rom.
I've been having this issue for months now across multiple roms, both CM & TW. It just randomly drops the data connection for a few minutes & then it comes right back. It's so weird, I've had the same radio since June & it just started doing this in late July. I can only assume that Tmo is doing a lot of network upgrades or something.

I had the same problem when the upgrade that added LTE for T-Mobile came out. I went by the T-Mobile store and the guy said they were aware of the issue, but didn't exactly what was causing it, but something with the LTE. He said he has the same phone with a different brand of SIM card. He replaced my SIM with one of those and I have had no problems with losing connection since.
