I really need some help guys and gals I got this phone of my mother, and the Bluetooth and WiFi had never really worked for her, but she didn't ever need them as all she did was send texts calls and Facebook.
But the problem I am facing is that the WiFi and Bluetooth turns on and then hangs and then greys (see video) out. There have been similar issues like this.
I have no installed apps beside from Reddit is fun i have rooted and installed a custom kernel (Adams) which hasn't helped i have tried a facotry reset countless times with both the custom kernal and the default unrooted.
i have tried to unscrew all the screwss on the back and then rescrew them, i have removed battery and sim cleared all caches and to no avail nothing works

S4 mini vibrating when cellular network is lost [cm]

Hello,
in August I installed cyanogenmod 11 M9 to a friend's Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini because she had some problems with stock ROM. Everything was fine, but a few days ago the phone started to vibrate when the connection to the cellular network was lost. Today she updated to cyanogenmod 11 M11 but the issue is still present. I didn't find a way to disable this annoying behaviour in Android's settings, she told me she didn't change anything there. Has/Had anyone the same or a similar issue and knows how to disable the vibration after losing cellular network connection? I'm thankful about every hint about the cause and solution to this problem.
The phone is a Galaxy S4 Mini GT-I9195, cellular network is vodafone (Germany).
Thank you in advance,
becha
Today she told me that the phone started vibrating when receiving a new message until she read the message. So, S4 Mini with Cyanogen Mod 11 M11, vibrating every time cellular network is lost or starting to vibrate when receiving a new message and vibrating as long as the message is unread. If you can't help me here, please give me a hint who or where to ask this question to get some help.
Best regards,
becha
Sorry, never heard of this before. Maybe try backing up and do a fresh install.

No sound when making, or receiving calls, same for those being called...

Hello fellow galaxy users, I have this problem on my T-mobile Samsung galaxy s4 and it is when I make a call, I cant hear anybody on the like or the dial tone or anything, and when the other picks up my call they can't hear anything either. Also if I pick up a call I still cannot hear anything. It is just plain silence. NOW HERE IS THE WEIRD PART! If I turn on wifi calling, I can call and receive calls with out any problems, if I use skype I can hear from the speaker and everything. So my mic is working, my speakers are working, everything seems to be functioning... Till I make a call using data... My guess is its a T-mobile network issue? I called T-mobile and they didn't know what was wrong... I looked around google and many people are having the same problem with no solution... If anyone has any ideas or any solution and would like more info on this problem, please let me know!
Have a nice day !
im having the same exact problem! i have seen some fixes that people have posted with similar issue, leading them to believe its something with their bluetooth/ok google/s voice being involved. ive tried some of the fixes that have been posted, but no luck on fixing the issue on my end. but just like you if i go on wifi and make a call i have no issues what so ever! the sound also works just fine if i connect to a bluetooth device.
Are both of you on the full NH7 firmware?
Mismatched bootloader?
Pp.
fully stock rom, not rooted. OS 4.4.4, yes nh7
i will add that this is my first galaxy, that i haven't rooted or changed the rom on. i have yet to have a reason to root or change the rom on this phone, but if i have to, to get this fixed? i have no problem rooting and changing the rom.
also i have noticed that i drop LTE to 4g when ever i try to make a call. the wife has the same phone and is on tmobile as well but she has not had this issue.
Ok, since you are stone stock this could be a update issue, just out curiosity I would try a factory reset (hard reset ) it may solve the issue . If not I would go with stock rooted like ShinySide's rom not full custom until issue is solved.
Pp.
ive done a hard reset and the problem is still there. i guess ill go the ShinySide's rom way, until i get my s5 or wait for the rumored s6.
This by ShinySide will give you an option to flash a stock firmware if you choose to be stock again. Follow instructions using Odin.

maybe try to manual connect to your network provider in the settings. sounds like you dont have a problem with the rom but with you phone signal

Need more info....download samsung phone info and post a screenshot of the firmware tab. If your bootlader and baseband dont match, theres your problem. If they do, try reflashing stock (twice) then doing a tactory reset from the stock recovery right after. If after that the issue is still present....probably something else.....mabey hardware related. Good luckl
Do you use bluetooth? I had a very similar problem and figured out that the only time I had call audio was when I was using a bluetooth headset or the bluetooth in my car. I don't know what sets it off but I've done some searching on this problem and it appears to be common among GSM GS4 owners, and even doing stuff like a complete reset doesn't fix it.
The one fix that I did find, that helped some people, was to go into Google Now and disable "Okay Google" detection from any screen. Several people found that that worked. But I didn't have that feature enabled anyway so it didn't apply.
I don't know if the same problem occurs with CDMA GS4s; my wife has a Sprint GS4 and doesn't have the problem but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I think it was just AT&T and T-Mobile GS4 owners who reported this.

My bootloader is nb4 and baseband is foh3, but it's been that way for a while now, and this problem is only recently, also I've tried that and it didn't work

I don't have Bluetooth, I've tried it with a wired headset and even that didn't work, but what's so puzzling about this is that my calling works fine with Facebook messenger calling feature, hangouts and things like that

Edit:
Nevermind. It worked twice then I tried calling a different phone and it broke again. I will keep searching and update.
Original:
I have had this issue intermittently for the past year. It was fixed for about 6 months then two weeks ago started occurring again. Today I flashed a new Rom (PacMan) and the M919UVUFOK3_M919TMBFOK3_TMB firmware. That did not fix it. I was connecting to a 5Ghz WiFi so on a whim I forgot that network and made a call without WiFi enabled. Call worked!
So I connected to my 2.4Ghz WiFi and it is working again. I would try turning off WiFi and see if your calls go through if so it could be 5Ghz or the router...maybe a forget network / reconnect to network will fix it consistently.
Hope this helps you and if anything new comes up I will let you know.
So an update. I finally just gave up on it. My wife had an old phone I remembered (from 2 - 3 years ago) that was ran over and the digitizer broke. I just took her guts and put it in my phone and now it magically works. Hopefully it stays that way.
Should have done this years ago as my phone would no longer charge with the USB Cable nor was my SD Card accessible. Now it is all functioning right again.

So after flashing stock NB4 twice.....and factory resetting after from stock recovery, your still not getting call audio?.....doesnt make sense....try again and make sure the bootloader and baseband match.....and dont reboot into download from the OS.
For anyone having issues with no call audio through cell service but for some reason it works through data calls through whats app or facebook messenger, etc ,i have been having the same problem for awhile now. I believe i have traced it to be a hardware issue with the middle frame, when looking at the phone with the battery cover open on the top right over by where there are two markings R1 and L1. There is a module there labeled J-AT TMGA 7-3. When i was having issues i noticed that if i put slight pressure on that module my audio would fade back in on the call but if i put too much pressure it goes away again. If it is a hardware connectivity issue it would explain why slunked was able to get his phone working again by changing the guts in the unit. Im currently waiting for a middle frame and a blue cable for the antenna to confirm if this is indeed the issue.

samsung Note 2 Searching for GPS problems

Note 2 Searching for GPS problems
Hi I have the note 2 and for some time now I have been having problems using my sat nav be it google maps or co-pilot which is the two I have been using up to now.
for some reasons my not keeps saying searching for gps but never finds it. I did try doing a reinstall of the whole phone and it did work for a day or so but now has gone back to saying searching for gps
have tried 3 different gps fix apps but non helped
can anyone help please I use my sat nav all the time and feeling lost with out it
note GT-N7105
Android vir 4,4.2
No help at all with this then
Try this....MUST BE ON STOCK ROM!
Go to the samsung service mode *#197328640#
UMTS --> Common --> NV REBUILD --> Restore
nothing happens when I type that in what's meant to happen you sure you put the correct number?
well got so fed up with this problem that I bought another Samsung 2 same LTE model, and god man its doing the same thing as my other one, theres something I,m downloading when syncing with google account I think as it was working to start with then after downloading all my apps its staed doing it again. I like the note 2 I got lots of spare batteries and things to go with it so don't really want to upgrade, I wonder if rooting it might help? what do you think?
seems this is happening to the note 4 as well so upgrading the phone wont do any good either. so is this the end of the note phone as we know it if we want to use GPS??
Search up GPS Fix on Play store... let it do its thing and see if it works
I already have mate tried 3 of them
problem sorted now if you ever get this problem download Samsung Smart Switch app on your PC and do a full wipe and reinstalled not just a reset.
this has worked for me and its working find now.
can be downloaded here
