[Q] N7100 in Thailand, very inconstantly connected to network - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Friends,
I have a problem:
My N7100, purchased from Gerrmany and rooted with Perseus Kernel, cant stay connected constantly with network in thailand.
Especially if I turn on "mobile date" to use through 3g network. Most of the time the 3g sign appeas for like 2-3 seconds and disappeas, a block sign appears instead.. leaving me unreachable... cant call, get called or use internet.
Sometimes a few magic moments happen and I can use 3g internet for about 30seconds...
so for being halfway reachable, I have to disable "mobile date" and even then most of tehe time the block sign appears, cutting of conversations and so on...
I did a factory reset, tried sims from othe providers and checked apn.. nothing helped. wifi is working like a charm atleast!
I want to try o get the stock firmware to see if that helps but internetcafes in bangkok have only xp loool
the problem must be the hardware.. right?

Have you tried installing another modem?

[Q] 2.4 update broke 3g

I flashed 2.3.4 onto my 2.3.3 R800i and now I can no longer get 3g to work for anything other than messaging and phone calls. I've tried everything i could think of in the settings, any clue how I could fix this?
Did you put your apn settings in?

I had a problem with 3G long time ago after being abroad and using Airplane mode and/or data settings. Could not reactivate 3G for some reason and rebooting did not help but I had some on/off widget thing installed at the time and tried one of the 3G or data switches on it and it started working. Hope it helps

I spoke to a rogers agent to get the apn, thanks, wouldn't of know to do it otherwise
Right on man glad you got it worked out I went thru the same stuff when I first got my x10 it was a little frustrating but lesson learned

mine has a glitch where it switches the network it's assigned to by itself. Rogers shows up as two networks, one edge and one 3g/hspa, and I noticed if my reception is bad at a certain location it will sometimes switch to edge only, and not turn back. It's only been doing this after the update to 2.3.4
Edit/update: I figured out you can force the phone to never use edge, if you change it from wcdma preferred/gsm to only wcdma

serious issue! data loss

first i got to send my apologies to kootz (sp?) because i thought it was only doing it on their rom when i just happened to be i was on their rom the couple times it has happened. i thought cm10 didnt do it because immediately i would flash that and data was back. it happened today while running cm10. suddenly i have no data connection i can talk and text but no data. even after reboot no data no i can connect to wifi. what i did this time was go to titanium back up i erased the data for "input devices 4.1.1 blh blah blah" and data kicked back on.......anyone else having this issue???? i don't know if it's doing it on the stock rom as i have not been on it for quite some time.......anyone else??
even when i toggle data off and on it still stays off but the phone acts like data is off only thing that can be done is talk and text.
You can actually confirm that you have mobile network connectivity period?
As in, you're sure you can talk?
When I lose data from LTE -> 4G/HSPA+ ... then I lose everything. It looks like I can call, I have full bars, albeit no logo, but I can't actually place a call. I get the 'Emergency Calls Only' message, OR 'No Network Found' depending on Rom.
Either way, no solution....yet.
Also, I'm on Bell Network, currently running Ariel 2.08 Stock. (ATT-based I believe).

I have the exact same issue with my Telus SGS3. Even when running on stock ICS, even before rooting, I had the issue as mentioned above. I sent it out for repairs under warranty and Samsung claimed it not to have any faults and they just reflashed and sent it back claiming it passed all tests. I asked Telus to send it back again because it came back with it stuck on the Samsung logo. There has to be a solution to this or Samsung should at least fix it.

Beside the bars there us nothing there. I have made calls and got texts but I have no data. I have tried putting into airplane mode and off and I have tried toggling mobile data......

[Q] ace 2 network problems

Hello
I've just bought a new galaxy ace 2 and I am experiencing some problems.
When I'm using only gsm network type (i think, now I'm testing HDSPA), typically, when I'm logged on icq, mobile sometimes loosses signal and displays there is no service. After few seconds is everything OK and network is back at full singal. This can be seen also in battery usage view, when I'm having always yellow line with thin red places.
I'm now using it with mixed mode on HDSPA and there are no problems with network.
The phone is under warranty, so there is no problem, but I dont have much time and first I would try other solution. I tried to flash it with odin to same fw, but no change. I tried to google it but I didnt find any solution. Could you give me advice?
Thanks for answers

Well the "train" issue is due to the train being like a faraday cage, blocking the various microwave signals, the reason you get a signal on a train is because they have amplifiers to retransmit the signal into the train and vice versa.
...what network?
I have problem with mobile data. Apn: ERONET START (gprs.eronet.ba) i can acess with other phone on my sim card. Problem is in my phone but i dont know how to solve it. I can send messages and call but no any sign of data

Data connection lost

I been having this issue since I loaded up wicked rom on my phone. Works for 5 minutes only then loose connection, the only way seem to get connected again is through making a phone call to any... I just call my voicemail to get connected again so I don't have to annoy people! Help!!!

The current modem seems to *really* want to be on LTE. If you don't care about LTE you can disable it...settings - connections tab - more networks - mobile networks - change "Network Mode" to GSM/WCDMA. You'll still get HSPA+ speeds, but it should stay connected better.

Thanks man, it's just weird that the only way to get back connected is to make a phone call... I was at the time bike store yesterday and they mentioned something about updating the towers to LTE and should be over end of this summer... They said they are already ahead of sprint as in service at the moment and they are trying to be on the same page as AT&T and Verizon. I messed with the option by the way many times but didn't notice the difference yet but I will update the result on a following reply in the future. Thanks again

[Q] Network Issue On S4

Hello all,
I am not sure if this is because of the 4.3 update. My phone seems to lose connection fast as soon as I restart the device. Here is what exactly happens.
I reboot the device,
I see 4G Lte and 2-3 bars show up, but soon after, I lose connection completely and there is a stop sign for my bars.
What is going on here.
Wifi connection is fine, but when I connect to wifi I see grey for the bars in the notification.
I'm having the same issue in Nashville. Just updated, and constantly losing service, from lte to 4g

Have you flashed Ktoonz kernel yet?
It should fix the issue you are having.
If not, odin flash the MK2 modem.bin image.
Good luck, happy thanksgiving!
Figured it out. It was just wifi calling should be set to wifi if available.
Mine gets stuck in lte, and finally just times out on the webz, says no data connection.

Yes same happened to me until I flashed 4.3 with odin. I couldn't even put wifi on. But now it works.
