Hello, I just got a Note 2, I got it on amazon.
But I can't get to connect to my 3g network. I live in el salvador, and our 3g network works on 900mhz which my Gt-n7100 suppose to work, but it just fails anytime.
At first I fought it was a fake note, but everything looks good, amazing screen, good s-pen, really fast, touchwiz, etc.
(I have a note I so I can compare) . the only thing is that it says that it has a total of 24gb of storage (weird).
I downloaded the genuine app, and it says that It is genuine.
So how can I make it work , If I check GSM only, it does connect to the network (calls, data just GPRS even tough EDGE should work) , but when I check WCDMA only It finds the network but it fails on registering.
I tried to update on the phone, but it fails, I will try with KIES and see if that works.
But please help.
Thanks
P.S I should note that my modem number is XX (which it's supposed to be europe countries) does it has anything to do?
I remember a while ago that I flashed an htc, I had to flash the radio band, so It can pick my countries frequencies? could that be?
thanks

Check your APN settings. I got this problem few days ago. Just set ur apn to default. Use this app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tweakker
As for the 24 gb, u might have gotten the 32gb variant.
Smack that thanks button if I helped.

thanks, but it's not that the data isn't working, I cannot even connect to the WCDMA network so no calls, no data.
It works on "GSM ONLY" well kinda, cause in my last phone when I was on GSM only it had EDGE connection, but this one has GPRS.
I have set the correct APN for my carrier. But I cannot even connect to the network.

i think you have 32gb version..plus minus all apps in the phone you got 24gb of storage.
about your 3g,i dunno about that because there many fix solution...some said just factory reset,some said modem is the problem and flash other modem may fix it...you can try bring it to local shop and ask them
Just one question, If the genuine app, says that it is genuine? that's trustable?
I am just worried that It might be a knock off after all, but everything on the phone seems excellent.

I've done that, but it only works on GPRS not in 3g .
Also, when I check for the network operators on all the phones I got, I always get all the carriers, but in this phone I can only get one.

Well thanks, that's a relief.
I tried a factory reset right now, will try to update later.
Could it be that I have another model rom?
cause in the settings I don't get WCDMA/GSM , but LTE/WCDMA/GSM. But the GT-N7100 doesn't have LTE.

n7105 rom cannot be installed in n7100 phone..different hardware
maybe some expert here can help
Please If anyone can Help.
I bought this phone because my old phone (xperia ion) only supported the 900mhz frequency on GSM, so I could only get EDGE speed.
This phone (NOTE 2) it's supposed to support 900mhz in the HSDPA, but I can't get it to work only on GSM and with GPRS (slower than EDGE)
PLease, I really need help
Okay, so I was trying to do the ARIZA patch, because my serial number is 00000000 and I couldn't connect to any networks.
When I put my phone into download mode, it was all in korean and it says product name: SHV-E250S, which is supposed to be the korean note, but it doesn't have an antenna like the phones I have seen.
Could this be that this phone is really screwed???? Cause it like a gt-n7100 on the rom but has LTE, and doesn't pick any network .
If this real the korean it only works in this band 1900, 2100, which none of my carriers in my country use them...
Would you say I try to root it and try to patch??

I bought my n7100 on taobao here in China, and it's a Korean version. I put my China Mobile sim card in, and it makes and receives calls, and text messages and can use wifi with no problem.
The only thing is the mobile data doesn't work. I rooted and tried tweakker, and HiNet, to reset my APN and MMS settings, but that didn't work. My phone still thinks I'm roaming.. it displays
this message "Data Roaming, You have lost data connectivity because you let your home network with data roaming turned off".
I've also tried updating the APN and MMS settings manualy with information i've found on the web.
I've googled and searched this forum and I can't find much. I thought it would be an easy APN settings fix but it seems not to be...
I took my phone in to the local China Mobile store they couldn't fix it. I took it to a local android expert here and they didn't know what to do.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
If you bought a Korean Note 2, you don't (shouldn't) have an N7100. I also purchased one through Taobao.
You should have an SHV-E250S, E250L, or E250K. Which one do you have? Check the baseband version under Settings > About device page.
No matter what, you're going to be limited to 2G only with China Mobile.
You're right, It's SHV-E250S, and I'm fine using the 2g in China on China mobile, but I'd just like to know how..any help?
Baseband Version is E-250SKSVLJK
Try removing all modifications to your APN settings.
Next, go into Settings > More settings > Mobile networks > Network mode and change it to GSM only. Also make sure that Data roaming is not selected. Run a new scan for network operators while you're in there to refresh your APN settings to the right ones.
In data network mode I only have 2 options "3g only" or "LTE Preferred" I have it on 3g only. I have now unchecked data roaming, but I don't see any place to scan for network operators. I have included a few screenshots here, sorry i don't know how to insert them.. http://tinypic.com/r/2198djn/6 http://tinypic.com/r/24dhfmx/6 http://tinypic.com/r/2zof98w/6
Now it's obvious why you don't have data. Is this the stock Korean ROM? Are you rooted?
I can point you to a decent ROM that will fix all of this, provided you have the patience to fix it. It's relatively easy.
Yes it seems to be the stock Korean ROM. I am rooted using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31801060&postcount=2 I'm more than willing to flash another rom. I've put about 20 hours into this so far, I imagine I can muster enough patience to finish it
Once they give us a damn Korean Note II section, this kind of information will be a lot easier to find.
Try this ROM for now, it's the one I've been using for a few weeks and I love it.

Thanks a lot the rom (715mb) is downloading now, I have tried to flash ROM's on my old galaxy nexus, and on this note II, but I never succeeded, can you please link me to a good guide, on how to flash this rom? thanks.
Odin is included in the download. If you're using Windows 7 you may or may not have the drivers for the phone, and can grab them out of the All-in-one Toolkit. Just installing the toolkit should install the drivers necessary.

The ROM you're downloading has two files and two pictures, as well. Open the pictures and follow along. All you have to do is click two buttons, select two files, then hit start. It WILL wipe your phone.
I installed that rom you suggested, I went into settings and did GSM only, and had it automatically find my network (china mobile) selected it, rebooted, and still it says i'm roaming so there is no connectivity... any more ideas?
Can you try somebody else's SIM?
There's no reason you should not be getting service unless something is not right with your SIM or phone.
I installed the rom you suggested, i went into settings and made it GSM only, also had it automatically correctly locate my network (china mobile) and it said "registered on network".. but it still isn't working, same problem, it says no connectivity cus i'm roaming.. any ideas now?
my gf will be home from work in a couple hours, I can try her sim card then.. my sim card was cut by me for my old iPhone.. is it possible or likely that the phone can still make and receive calls, but that somehow data connectivity was affected by me cutting the card? also one guy at the phone fixing store tried his sim card (from another company) and internet worked fine he said..

China mobile have various sim plans, from local to province to national. Are you using the sim in the same city in which you bought it? If not and you don't have a national plan, it could be why the phone is showing roaming. In China going from one province to another is already considered roaming unless you have a national plan. This is from my experience back 2 years ago. Also, you best check at a China mobile shop if you have data activated, gprs/edge is not activated by default, you need to ask them to do it.
I would advise you to switch to China unicom as they have 3g/hspa which is much faster than china mobile.

For clarfication, I am in Hainan, and the card is from hainan. I use the same sim card in my galaxy nexus without any problem. I tried my gf's card just now, it didn't say any problem with connectivity, and did not display roaming.. And it shows the G symbol (for 2 or 3 G I assume), and has up and down arrows next to it.. but it doesn't actually work for browsing the web or using apps over the data network.. I even reset all the APN settings and let it automatically find the China Mobile network, but it didn't help.. what if I try to set the APN settings manualy? and any other ideas??
Showing the G symbol is GPRS, which is 2G. You will not get 3G on the N7100, N7105, or Korean model Note 2 on China Mobile.
Sounds like you need a new SIM card. You can try to set the APN manually to make the data work with hers. I've never had to set an APN manually and I've used many phones here with all 3 carriers, so it's a bit odd to me. No clue why your card doesn't work, but since hers is working fine, it's definitely not your phone.
For the record, her card displayed G, but even after messing with settings, I couldn't get it to have working data network..
Today I bought a new card, and had it officially cut to size, put it in the note II and it's still telling me no data connectivity due to i'm roaming.. i'm so frustrated
edit: after restarting a few times and trying to automatically make it register on china mobile .. it worked on the 4th attempt.. it still displays data roaming, and I had to enable data roaming... but now it works, even though it says i'm roaming?? wtf

Did you get 3G while choosing WCDMA Only?
If Yes,means you have to do it manually everytime you reboot your device.
If No,means you don't have a 3G data plan.
If you reboot your device mean while it will again set to prefered WCDMA so everytime you need to do it manually. Just to remember if you're getting 3G even on prefered WCDMA then leave it as it is. I think it's an issue regarding weak carrier signal.

Its not the build prop. Its how HTC designed the DHD.
The DHD isnt quadband, You can check the specs at gsm arena.
Some countries have thier 3g on a different band, so if you buy a DHD that doesnt scan for 3g on your countries band, you face the same problem.
I have being trying to fix this problem but got stuck along the way. Its very good to see that people also have the same problem. Maybe the devs would try something.

Nope..
Before i can try anything i have to put the device in diag mode which i have being able to, but the problem now is the device isnt showing up properly in QPST(a program for communicating directly to the qualcomm chip).
It detects the open port on windows but its unable to find the phone in the port.
If the phone doesnt show up in the port, changes cannot be done.
So thats the update.
If you have any idea, you could share
WCDMA
goto mobile network under settings, then select network mode, change it to GSM/WCDMA auto if it doesnt work then change it to WCDMA only.
It'll do the trick.
I am in a fix here!!! Since long I have been facing this problem wherein, whenever I switch to 3G/4G mode, my phone looses network forever.. It seems to work perfectly fine in 2G mode.. I tried everything.. playing with radios, factory resetting and all the other help that I could get but in vain. I thought it is a hardware issue and since mine is an imported one, and I don't have warranty, I was avoiding to take it to a repair centre.. A week back, I went to Malaysia for a trip, and as I put a local SIM, my 3G starts working perfectly fine... I thought it could be a radio issue and as I came back to India, to my surprise my old local SIM was working fine in 3G mode yet again!!! I thought somehow my problem was sorted!!! It worked for 2 days and it is back to the old problem now.. no 3G whatsoever!!!! Please help me guys!!!
I was just browsing and I read an samsung user facing the same problem.. The carried switched his normal SIM to USIM.. and it started working.. could this be a valid issue?

If changing the settings in Phone Info did not help I have to agree that you need a different sim or different APN settings.
The same SIM works with the same APN in other phones... and even if it was an APN issue then the data would have been a problem.. But i don't even get network in 3G..

Post as much detail about your problem, if you want to get help.
What version M8?
Is it modded (custom ROM, root, s-off) or stock?
What region/carrier, and more importantly, what bands used for 3G and LTE?
What does it say for OS number in bootloader screen?
You've verified the SIM works for 3G and/or LTE on another device?

According to the following webpage, the 3G band used by Airtel is Tanzania is 2100 MHz (900 and 1800 listed are only for GSM/2G): http://www.worldtimezone.com/gsm.html
As this webpage also lists " 4G LTE TTCL" I will have to assume you got the info from the same or similar website. And that doesn't tell us what band your carrier uses for LTE/4G.
The 3G band 2100 MHz is supported by your current firmware. Make sure you have properly input the APN info for your carrier in the phone's settings.
LTE is trickier. Even with the proper band support and APN, you might not get LTE using an M8 version not intended for your region/carrier. But 3G should be possible.
I did but the 4G symbols is showed on the network bar once in a while. And it does not last long when it shows up!
For the TTCL sim card i can not access the network at all since it does not allow 2G services!
The same here. I face the problem yesterday =)) LTE icon show for the first time and then after a reboot, 3G and LTE signal gone forever =)) Now Edge only. Trying to fix it.
I have played with buildprop before.... i found a place that said to change "ro.telephony.default_network" to "2"... this doenst work... it constantly switches back to hdspa....
i have better reception though, under umts.
if i go into my actual network settings, the default is always "gsm/cdma auto (prl)"... unless i specifically change it to "wcdma only"
I have consistently 5 bars with wcdma, 4 at the worst...... under the gsm/hdspa, i have normally 3 bars but often 2, 4 at absolute best but quite rare....
is there a *real* buildprop edit that will actually fix this??
thanks!
eta:i already have my phone set to use my home network only (manual network)... so its not trying to roam, ever, and thats why signal is down....
anyone?
The only method known to work seems to be configuring the bands in service mode but that is not boot persistent.

in service mode, you mean the #*#* number thing?? if thats the case, i have tried that and even that reverts after like 5 minutes, not even a reboot required to revert that one either.......
a good example of why i want to do this is at work last night... on the gsm network, one tiny bar, my phone was struggling. switched it to wcdma, and bang, 4 bars.
i dont work in a basement or anything either. smaller 1 floor building with many windows.

actual phone is the at&t version, not sure if that matters at all...
Rom is the stock but rooted one, by dman (4.0.4) its one of the few still green in the "everything captivate glide" thread
baseband just says i927uclj3
build number says imm76d
not sure what either of those last 2 mean lol

This sounds ok.
Well I can speak for sediROM only but I can NOT confirm your mentioned back switch. I have configured WCDMA only or also specific bands only and they keep until a reboot..
Baseband service mode:
*#*#2263#*#*
Keep in mind never using the back button here!!! only menu button and then back!
.
Giving this a try right now...
I decided to try wcdma only (instead of picking just one band)....
it does seem to help. the weird part is that if i go into my phones about section to see which type of band its on, at times it will still say the hdspa, but the reception remains so much better. its weird.
So im not sure if one of the bands in wcdma (it stars 3, although only 2 are available on my carrier), could also be a band of hdspa and thats why the name change?
it does seem to help reception though so far, regardless of the name it gives it.
just wish it stayed after reboot

When you want to choose individually select "wcdma only" and then go back and go to "combi bands". Then select all bands one by one (select one and use menu button - back! - select the next one and so on) .
Don't know what your carrier uses for bands and which one would be the correct ones for you sorry. Ask your provider he can tell you more hopefully.
Dont hesitate to use the incredible thx button if my post had helped you
.
it did actually help! I added that number to get to bands as a contact, so i just go in and press *# and it brings up the rest.
its actually not so bad , it takes a second each reboot but its not bad at all.
Hello everyone, first of all I would like to apologize because I am French and I don't speak English very well, but I think you are my last hope for the trouble I am currently experiencing.
I own a Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ (SM-N975F) with a Rom Surcouche Operator Bouygues Telecom :
- N975FXXU4CTE9/N975FBOG4CTE9/N975FXXU4CTE9
I wanted to remove my Bouygues Telecom Rom Operator to install a Samsung Rom Stock without any overlayer operator. The operation is well finished so I am now on the Samsung Rom Stock:
- N975FXXS6DTI5/N975FOXM6DDTH7/N975FXXS6DTI5
Except that since this change of Rom I have almost no more 4G+ where I live knowing that before I was always in 4G+ So I would like to know why just by having changed the Rom I lost my 4G+. ( Worries which lasts since September 21st, 2020 ) I wanted to go back but I passed from a bootloader 4 to a bootloader 6
Knowing that I'm with the Free operator, I tested my Free SIM card in my wife's Samsung, I'm getting 4G+ so the problem is not my SIM card, I also sent my phone to Samsung, the phone has no hardware anomaly so it's from the change of Rom, I tried to reinstall the same problem, I also made the wipe I tried everything ...
I also have at home a 4G+ router with a 4G+ plan with the operator Free and I am in 4G+ at full speed ...
I hope to get some help from you because on the French forums I don't have a single answer ... Thanks in advance for your help and sorry again for my english
Test the internet speed on both phones using your sim's data plan with speedtest. If the speed is the same in both then the problem of the 4G indicator is only aesthetic.
Hello bigcalvin, unfortunately I have tested but the speed is not the same at all in 4G+ I go up to 235Mb/s while in H+ I go up to 3Mb/s so there is no problem with the 4G indicator

Have you tried in different areas? What it seems like, is that the stock Samsung ROM is not compatible with your carrier. With system on a chip (SoC), carriers can turn off bands that they don't need, or as a means of locking you into their network.

Honestly I'm not going to lie to you I've tried everything I've tried a Bouygues télécom rom (bog) a SFR rom (sfr) a France télécom rom (ftm) and a Samsung stock France rom (xef) with my old Bouygues télécom rom (bog) bootloader 4 I always get the 4G+ since I changed my rom and I switched to bootloader 6 I never get the 4G/4G+ again and I sometimes get the 4G+ logos but there are 10 seconds left and then switch to the H+. ..
Hello, sorry for the double post but I don't know where to find help you wouldn't have a solution to my problem? Thanks in advance
I don't understand anything anymore on this phone knowing that my wife and at free and I can receive the 4g very well. I have a 4g router, I can receive the 4g free and my phone since the update doesn't receive anything anymore, I have to go out of my house and walk a good 100 meters to hope to receive the 4g whereas I didn't have this problem before I made the really strange update...
No one would have a solution to give me or manipulation to do I take all the information.
Try a "reset network settings" if you haven't already.
Clear the system cache on the boot menu; it never hurts to do so.
Hi, thank you for your answer unfortunately I have already reset the network settings I have also done the factory settings system cache also reinstallation of a new rom I had to do it about twenty times but still nothing :/

Yeah pretty basic stuff... that's all I got
Most likely a settings issue but you probably know more than myself at this point to troubleshoot this problem.
Try doing Google searches and view the results for other Samsung phone models and years.
Most times I can find a solution like this or trip over it as an indirect result while searching.
Some of the Samsung software issues have been around for years...
I've already searched everything on google I'm French I've searched on English forums and everything but I can't find anything at all.
I am in France with the mobile operator "Free" which uses the frequencies 700mhz/1800mhz/2600mhz I would like to know if there is a possibility on this phone to choose the frequency that I want one by one I have the impression that it is my 700mhz frequency that has a problem on my phone :/
By using the free App 'Shortcut Master (Lite) from Google Play, you can get access to the Network Settings. In there you can make Band Selection, allowing you to test network connections and performance per band (=frequency) or combinations of bands.
See following thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...guide-hidden-network-settings-exynos-t3995501
Hope this helps!
Hello OnnoJ, unfortunately I have already tested with this application so it doesn't work. However I compared everything with my wife's phone a Samsung so I have exactly the same settings as on her phone ...
I have to go out of my house and walk a good 200 meters to hope to get 4G, however I specify that before I made this famous update I was always in 4G at home inside and outside of the house and this is not a concern of the mobile operator because otherwise my wife would have exactly the same problem as I have now and I would also have exactly the same problem on my 4G router ...
I think I've done everything and above all I've tested everything and unfortunately I had Samsung on the phone and they put the blame on the operator whereas as explained above my 4G router and my wife's phone have exactly the same mobile operator so they would have the same problem as me ... ...
I would try to revert to the newest firmware that your carrier uses, just to see if the issue is about the bands, search for the latest firm for your carrier, provided that it is of an equal or higher bootloader version to the one you currently have installed, that is what I would do
@thominekevin76000.
Not saying it may help you, but the application works fine for me to access network settings. I use it all the time, as it helps me at home and at work to make the optimum band selection for that specific location to prevent hopping between different cell towers and to have a stable and fastest possible 4G+ connection. CellMapper app allows me to see connection possibilities with the various cell towers and their power.
Hello winol, I can't go back to my old Rom because I had a bootloader of 4 and now I switched to a bootloader of 6 so I can't go back :/)
