[Q] Strange 4g issue - Internacional Note II N-7105 - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I´m currently on stock N7105XXDLL4 with this modem XXALIK (Portugal, Vodafone) and using latest custom Kernel from perseus.
The problem is that everytime I turn on 4g I can´t receive sms or calls, I can make, but can´t receive. If switch back to 3g I can make and receive calls and sms. My sim card is 3 weeks old so it´s very recent. Any thoughts?

[Q] Unable to make Voice Calls

Hi,
I'm facing a strange issue with my 9 month old Redmi 1S since last 2 days. Whenever I dial a number the call immediately disconnects and all I see is "Call Ended Not Connected".
I'm using 2 Sims, Airtel in slot 1 & Bsnl CellOne in slot 2. First I thought that maybe its a Network Issue but when I tried both the sims in a different handset, I was able to make calls. I tried an Aircel sim in 1S as well but same problem.
And yes I'm able to receive calls, 3G is working fine but can't make Voice Calls. The OS version was JH45 and I didn't update as I was waiting for Kitkat/Lollipop ROM. But last night I updated my phone to latest JH 56.0 assuming that it will solve the issue but the problem still persists.
Also, someone advised me to clear system cache from recovery which I did but still its the same.
Hoping to find some solution from the members here.
Regards.
So, nobody is gonna help me here?
I am able to make calls only if I prefix number with *31#
Why?

can't make or place calls, but SMS and data is fine

Hi all,
My problem is that my Galaxy S3 (i747M) cannot make or receive phone calls*, but I can send or receive most SMS**, and my LTE data is fine***. I've tested to ensure it's not my account with Rogers, or my SIM card. I took my SIM card and put it in two other phones, and both worked just fine (one Rogers, one Telus). Putting their SIMs into my phone and the same problem as with my own SIM in my phone. I have unlocked my S3 using the 4.2 trick, but I didn't have this problem back then. I'm assuming this isn't causing me issues now.
I used asterisks because each of the above has some additional details:
* I cannot reliably make and receive phone calls. For example, I can try calling the same phone number (home) 10 times, and it may only go out once. From my home phone I can try calling my cell phone 25 times and only get through once. Every time my calls out fail, it either sits at "Dialing..." for 30 seconds before ending in "Call Ended 0:00" or just immediately drops the call without the 30 seconds of "Dialing...".
** Most of the time I can send and receive SMS from any other cell phone. Occasionally a message won't send out even though I have 4/5 signal bars. Resending the message works. Not sure if this is related to my issues with calling.
*** LTE data is fine (using LTE APN). Switching away from LTE to just 4G/H+ and data is a bit spotty. Sometimes it connects, sometimes it doesn't. LTE always connects just fine.
I've tried all sorts of flashing and reflashing:
- problem started when I was on S3Rx 4.0, but I never thought much of it because most calls went through fine
- problem got worse when I was on Lollipop (CyanideL), progressively so
- used Odin to flash stock NF2 (downloaded from Sammobile site), was no different than when I was on Lollipop (CyanideL)
- used Kies to flash stock N__ (forgot exactly which one), still no different
- flashed different bootloaders and modems
- while in stock NF2 firmware, went into *#2263# and made sure it was set to Automatic.
So any ideas what problem this is? I just find it extremely odd that calls almost always fail, yet SMS and data aren't a problem. Of course, when my SIM is in another phone (Nexus 5 on Telus, Galaxy S5 on Rogers) I was able to do everything without any problems: calls, SMS, and data.
Thoughts as to what this could be? Is this a hardware issue? If it's software, what could it be? My warranty's out and I'm willing to flash anything or pop the phone open (already have to make sure antenna isn't disco'd).
Thanks!
Have you tried the fob1 firmware? It's the latest kk release for the Canadian s3.
Yup, that's the firmware I'm currently on. Downloaded it from SamMobile, flashed via Odin. I'm literally running the stock firmware right now, no root, only TWRP as recovery so I can more easily flash any modems or bootloaders (vs using fastboot).
OK, so further to this issue, I contacted Rogers technical support. Spent about half an hour on the phone with the tech, went through a few things:
1. He reset my voice account, didn't help
2. Had me search in the "Network Operators" list, no networks ever show up
3. Had me use my old phone (Nexus S, network unlocked) to ensure that it's not my account. All tests with the Nexus S went fine.
4. Had me test different network bands. Bingo!
The phone can place and receive calls when I set the network mode to 2G only (or GSM only). 3 out of 3 calls came in, 3 out of 3 calls went out. Then again later we tested incoming and outgoing calls, still on the 2G network.
So technically problem solved, but realistically not really. I am able to get voice, text, and data (solved!), but I'm paying for a LTE data package and should at least be getting 3G mad.
Any idea why my phone would be working on the 2G network and not on the other ones (3G, H+, LTE)?
This is crazy but the baseband and modem are one fob1? I know you said you flashed a stock rom but it may be worth checking.
My niece is using an unlocked bell s3 on Rogers and she has no problem with voice, data, or text when setting the network to wcdma only or wcdma/LTE.
Yes! Both Baseband (modem) and bootloader are the same. I just downloaded Phone Info (Samsung) to check this, and they both report being FOB1.
Now here's something that's irking me quite a bit. I only just discovered this and do not know if it is of consequence to my problem: I have no PDA or CSC version and Latest Firmware is reporting "Not Found" in the Firmware tab of Phone Info. I've attached a screenshot so you can all see what I mean. Is that normal?
Is phone running a custom rom?
That's right, I just restored a NANdroid of CyanideL (5.1.1).
So this also happens on a stock fob1 rom too?
I am almost tempted to say it may be a hardware issue.
That's right. This happens with a custom ROM (e.g. CyanideL, 5.1.1) as well as a stock ROM that's been freshly flashed via Odin (FOB1, 4.4.2). When flashing with Odin, I'm doing a full wipe via TWRP. Wiping /data partition as well.
I'm inclined to believe this is also a hardware issue, but it just seems bass ackwards in that I can get everything (minus LTE) working while on 2G, but I lose voice access if I move up beyond 2G. I could understand if I couldn't get any voice, SMS, or data, but that going down to 2G solves all my problems... it just seems weird!
Can you try the phone on another carrier? This would probably be the final test you could do. Sounds like you have tried everything.
Yup, tried that earlier on, when I tested my SIM card in some friends' phones (one on Rogers, one on Telus), and while doing that also tested their SIM cards in my phone. With their SIM cards in my phone, the same problem happens as when I'm using my own SIM card.
Gah! It's frustrating, but something I can live with for now until I can get a new phone. I just still can't get over the "everything's fine" on 2G, but moving up to 3G or beyond and I completely lose voice. A colleague of mine has the same phone and the same plan, bought only a month or two before I bought mine. He's got no problems at all with LTE and voice. Although he was on the unofficial CM 12.1 nightlies (5.1.1), I don't think that would have any perceivable difference than when I was on CyanideL 15.x (also 5.1.1).

How to unlock GSM to make Sim calls on AT&T tab 3 t217a

I am new so forgive me if im posting in the wrong place.
Heres my need....i busted my S5, so I took my sim card out & placed it in my Galaxy tab 3, hoping to use it as my phone until I can replace my S5. I rooted the tab successfully using instructions on this forum. Now how do i unlock the calling feature so i can receive & make calls using my at&t cell service, not wifi app?
I have seen post about international firmware,but all the download links are dead.
My tablet is activated & running 4.4.2, i do not have a stock phone icon/app & only dial pad is hangouts.
Please help im desperate & been phoneless for almost 2 weeks.
I'm sorry to have to be the one to tell you this but as far as I remember the ATT modem is Data only, you can get text messages by installing GOSms (i think that's the only one I've gotten texts working with) but no calls, the default dialer app that's hidden only allows to send codes and wont allow you to place or receive calls, I've tried replacing it with another dialer from a different rom and didnt have any luck

Phone Not Receiving Calls - Help Is Appreciated

I have an AT&T HTC One M8 flashed with Dirty Unicorns Official v9.6, running on Android 5.1.1. The ROM has been good to me, other than this problem I am facing where I can not receive calls. I can turn off LTE data and receive calls, but I cannot receive calls with LTE data on. I can send text messages, receive MMS messages, make outgoing calls, and I can technically receive phone calls, if I'm already in a call. I know this most likely has to do with the AT&T side of the problem, but I was curious what I would tell AT&T to get this resolved. Thank you for any input anyone has!
This is related to AT&T's particular implementation of Voice over LTE (which they call "HD Voice") not playing well with most custom ROMs (anything not based on the AT&T ROM, basically).

Volte Not working... Not switching to 4g for incoming calls. Help!

I've about had it with this phone internationally unlocked HTC 10 here originally had Oreo on it I downgraded back to nougat properly with the 2.51 latest firmware and now Sim is working on nougat but any AOSP ROM I use voice over LTE never works. I don't absolutely need voice over LTE to work but my phone does not always switch the connection to 4G to receive incoming calls either sometimes it would just stay on LTE and then the caller will be pushed to voicemail immediately. I can make calls from my phone fine but receiving has been a huge problem. I even tried the leedroid nougat ROM and it is doing the same thing as I thought it was an AOSP problem but that can't be the case as it possibly something with my firmware? I just want this headache to go away and receive my calls properly again! Any help will be greatly appreciated
Carrier is tmobile
So I've discovered that volte does not work with AOSP ROMs but it seems when I get a call the LTE does not go down to 4G to let the call be received is there anything I can do
