No signal

I have no signal on my galaxy nexus. It just started doing this today, haven't had a problem for 3 months or so. It just started today, and once in a while there is a little R above where the signal bars would normally be. How do you fix this?

The R is for roaming and just go to settings then mobile settings then click on system select and click on home only and also click on network mode and just click on CDMA/EdVo auto and that should help it to not roam and stay on sprints signal hope that helps ..let me know if u need any other help and also make sure u updated to latest PRL

Dude mine just started doing this yesterday look at top right of screen shot no signal !!

Mine did the same thing too -- lost signal - Google GSM play store phone that was less than two weeks old.
After few reboots trying to diagnose the issue, the IMEI changed to UNKNOWN in the "about phone" -> status
/factory was intact and undamaged - a backup of /factory - showed that none of the files had changed. The radio appears to have failed..
Called Sammy and got replacement cross-shipped - and sent the broken one back..

Got a new Sim card works fine

Mines done this several times and it always took about two reboots to get a signal again. It said I needed to insert a valid sim card...

Even without a a sim I used to get bars and "Emergency calls only" - After it flacked out, I would no longer get any bars.. when I tried to search for networks it would error out immediately. I tried three different sims, none of them were recognized..

Once in a while, my phone will loose data connection. The 'data icon' in the status bar, turn from blue to grey and the only way to get data working again, is to reboot the phone.

Had it happen a couple times now. Airplane mode toggle on/off works to fix it.

Mine losses connection when I leave a WiFi network. Also here and there it looses signal so bad I have to go into airplane mode and back to land mode.

Mine is doing the same thing whats going on? How do you fix this problem? Is it ST network issue?

Hmm last time airplane mode didn't work for me. Will try again next time. I also think it happens when I leave wifi.

take out your battery and then restart your phone. if that does not work. check in your network settings and make sure you are on the correct network for your carrier. if that still does not work, go to your local store and see if they can warranty you out a phone or check your settings

It's not neccesary to take out the battery, a restart of the phone is enough. It's just an annoying problem.

I understand that but there has to be fix right? As soon as i reboot the phone it works but it seems like whenever it changes cell towers signals it locks up again. Crazy thing is all the signal bars on my phone are full green, but have no data until i reboot.

[Q] Fails to automatically connect to mobile data after Wifi

Does this happen to anyone else? Quite often if I've been using the N2 in my home, when I go out and about my phone will not be connected to mobile data (3G) and I have to toggle airplane mode for it to kick in?

Not had this myself, sounds like the cellular connection is going to sleep and not waking when your note 2 polls for a connection. Are you on a stock rom or a custom, can you post your android version number as well, will help anyone else who posts who may have more information for you.
If your rooted you could try pulling a log at the time you switch connections see if that yields any useful data.

Same here on a german device. I use manually select the Provider. Then it connect. Thank you for the tip with the airplane mode. But I search a way to kick this big. In a german forum a member says that a Fullwipe helps.

Its a stock rooted ROM version JRO03C.N7100XXALJ1
Can anyone tell me what to look for in order to create a log? (I don't expect a tutorial just someone point me in the right direction).
The problem is intermittent.

Give this a go, should allow you to create a log during the time you have the problem then you can see what android is or is not doing at the time.

Not something I have had myself but my gf has this same problem with her gs3. After having a look around our seems to be fairly common on the gs3 so any help with a fix would be great. I can only assume that it's something that will be fixed with a fw update from Samsung.

I have the same issue and so does my girlfriend on her SIII.. Can be really annoying as I might leave somewhere with wifi connectivity expecting the phone to automatically connect to 3g and I miss things like whatsapp messages with no warning :/
When I realise I do use the flight mode trick to fix it but it's annoying that it happens.

hmmm I used to have this problem, but it resolved itself within 2 days, so I suspect it's a telco problem, not your phone. Right now my 2g cannot connect to internet at all. I'm not too sure myself if it's the phone hardware, software or telco problem in my case haha.
I guess you can try flash stock rom and see if it still persists. If still persists, try wait a few days and see if it resolves itself?

hmmm I used to have this problem, but it resolved itself within 2 days, so I suspect
if i use stock rom rc2, I did not find the same problem

Try reflashing CM9RC6 the Pristine Way.

[Q] Wifi stuck flicking on and off and hanging in no mands land

I have a Sasktell Note 2 and have major problems with the WiFi
When turning it on it will flick on and off then get stuck off, when i mean flick on and of it never fully turns on the on light comes on for maybe a split second then back of and just hands with it not being on or off and not usable.
I have flashed a multitude of roms and put stock rom back on but this problem will not go away and is random, sometimes removing the battery will help and it will work for a few hours or days then crap out again.
Tried and searched even did the copy the old etc/wifi setting over the orginal did not work.
getting close to the point of stamping on it and getting a Iphone:crying:
Thanks for any help

reboot your router...

Factory reset the device and set up WiFi again..
Sounds like a dirty device...
Router reset also as mentioned above...g

Thanks for advice not sure what you mean on router not using a router, im just trying to turn on the wifi on my phone and its not that it wont connect to anything it just wont turn on.
I have done factory resest 1,0000000000000 times and just flashed another 2 roms same problem.

If you are using wifi at your house etc..
Power down the router for your internet connection and reboot it..
This could also be a hardware issue...
It sounds like you have exhausted the other repair options with fresh installs and trouble shooting....g

Thanks no its nothing to do with a router its a phone issue.
Not connecting to router or anything for that matter just turning on wifi on the phone.
Pos is ready be thrown through a wall no one seems to know the reason
Also as wifi button is not working it also means hotspot is not working
Where can I get the original note 2 rom for sasktel every one I find is bell or ata one last ditch at fixing it

No worries...
Unroot and reset is easy enough...g

Well downloaded the rom installed it and still no joy
Maybe the phone is just #@%$#@$.
Going to try re-partition see if that makes a difference.

Well tried a few more things and think i screwed it,
It now comes up with baseband unknown and the phone memory has dropped to 0 if i connect to the usb cable I can see the phone on the PC but has odd numbers when it comes to free memory and cannot create anything as says zero memory.
If i go to the phone there is no longer any signal and the memory is at 0 also.
I just re checked odin i think I clicked Nand erase all by mistake ooops

If you did erase the nand....the phone is effectively dead..
Unless you have a full backup to restore your EFS and IMEI #....then it's bye bye note2..
Oops is right....
Ya killed it....g
Edit:
Do you have a backup ??
That part about being careful was no joke....g

No back up so no phone.................
Could I not DL a nadro from online and flash it?
If that's not a option bye Note 2 I would like to say it had been a fun ride but you where a piece of crap and destroyed my trust in Android your brother SGS1 had a hand in destroying it also )

you cant download someone elses nandroid and use it..
sounds like operator error has runied another phone;
dont blame it on Android

I would agree operator ruined it im not blaming it very odd of you to read that from the sentence.
I stated my first android sgs1 no good nothing to do with anything other than the phone, inline mic and usb sound did not work GPS did not work Samsung stated no work around live with it. Note 2 over 6 months of no Wifi or hotspot makes phone useless for me as it is a required feature as country living no internet unless the phone works. Tried fixing and talking about it no joy so had already decided the phone was going in the trash, hence why im not that fussed that it bricked.

Very sorry about the phone...
It's a fine device...but is not a solve all...
No device is....g

Try this maybe you can still revive it it was done on S3 so you will just use cf auto root from original dev section and use custom rom for Note ll

Same situation. It comes randomly, at least it feels so
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

I've noticed to only happens when I am at home on my wifi and I think it has something to do with other Dlna products possibly

i get this error even when i am not using wifi

I know this thread is quite old now and I'm sorry to be digging it up, however I have been unable to find any solution after what feels like an eternity of googling... Hopefully this helps someone else
I just tried taking the memory card out of my phone and haven't had this stupid popup for nearly a full 24 hours now. Could be the fact that I don't have a fantastic quality memory card.
Anywho! Just for some background... I had tried resetting the phone and checking that all dlna settings were off on my router which didn't help as I also had this issue outside of home.

With ROOT Remove:
system\app\AllshareMediaShare.apk
and problem gone

light ans quick solution for my case
Hy,
I got this error message "near by service stopped" each time I tried to play a song from my SDCard through "ALLSHARE" (logo attached) on my DLNA network, with the Music samsung app. If it was a song from the internal memory : no issue came in playing with ALLSHARE !
So I just Dismount->Mount my SdCard once.
How ? go to Setting->More->Memory->at the bottom if this page click on Unmount-> click on Mount and it works for myself.
I guess you have an app which calls "near by service", if it does with connexion with SDCard this could fix your issue. Otherwise, go to folder /system/app/AllShareCastPlayer.apk and click then re-install it !
I guess other app calls this service. I can help only through trouble I faced
