A3 2017 Oreo battery life and incorrect CSC? - Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe

I've got a UK unbranded A3 2017 which after the official Oreo update had seriously ran out of Ram.
I installed the SamMobile BTU update using ODIN and added the adaptable storage mod and also encrypt bypass (but I didn't root the device)
First of all, the battery life is now atrocious, where it would easily last 2 days, I can barely get 12 hours from the device. Second of all and possibly related is I've got the issues with T-Roaming and KT twophone in settings (and three different battery settings!) which I believe is something to do with the CSC but I'm unsure how to fix it and if it will mean wiping the device again?

hows your cell standby ? i had the same issue and to me its was around 48% with 4g enabled and around 22% with 3g/2g network, but i had lost my imei too , flashing the original firmware the came with my device fixed it

Cell standby appears to be OK - and I've still got my IMEI. When you say original firmware that comes with the device, what files do you mean?

since your imei is there you dont need to worry about that , but i mean that files that you can download from sammobile

choose HOME_CSC FILE on odin. and yes, your device will ask to get wiped after bootanimation done, and there's no way to avoid it.

"No service"

Hello
I have LG G3 the international version with installed stock rom 5.0,
Before I install it, I backed up the previous kitkat rom.. When I installed the lollipop stock rom I decided to go back to my previous kitkat rom. After restoring it and booted it everything was ok but it says no service, emergency calls only. And the signal at the status bar was refreshing every second automatically. I tried to return to that lollipop rom to see whether the signal is ok or no but there was no problem with it. But I dont know whats the probkem in that kitkat rom.... Plzzzz helpppp mee!!
I have the same problem! I used a custom lollipop rom and messed with something so I had to restore the stock Kitkat.
Now it keeps searching for the signal and says "no service" It found the signal for a few times but lost it immidiately.. Wifi works fine.
i would be rly thankful if somebody can fix this.

I have found a lot of threads and people reporting this issue. Bought a D855 32Gb from China that has this problem...
Phone tries to get signal a couple of seconds and then a cross.. and so on..
I tried everything I think, I passed for all the bricks the phone can do: Automatic Reboot / Boot Loop / Fast Boot / Security Error / Factory Reset Status 2 / Dead (QHSUSB_DLOAD) - I can help anyone that has any of those problems : )
In one of the flashes my phone turned to D855RE, similar case to other people, also the message "Current version is not available for user. Can't find matched cust for NT-Code mcc/mnc".
Please if anyone was able to fix the problem report here, there is a lot of people waiting for the answer 20 threads in different networks, I will post the solution in each of those. Thanks!
Same happening with me,
I have LG G3 T-Mobile version, it keeps searching the service, sometimes it finds when there is very good signal, or when I am too close to the GSM antenna, I was thinking maiby there is problem with antenna contact, I have opened cleaned, but with no success. When is has service it does everything, calling, sms, 4G.
any help with this issue?

HI. i tried to change to several radio but I still don't have a signal. I just can't find the thread from other site, that it could be a D850 not an D855 motherboard. He tried to change the ROM to D850 and finally got a signal.
I have the same problem, any help is welcomed.

If you can, return the phone. As previous post suggested, its a popular thing from some chinese sellers to change the model. You will see the original model in your motherboard (you have to disassemble the phone) and have to flash the proper stock image. First confirm that the model is the model you ordered.

The phone was okay, this started happening when I flashed stock Marshmallow, then I flashed MIUI KitKat rom to see if its the the marshmallow that does that only, but it was on MIUI as well, after that I flashed Fulmics, but still the same. Now I'm on stock Marshmallow and it's doing it as well. I found a little "thing", when you set the network type to WCDMA/GSM there is no more no service, everything works. But when you put LTE it goes down.
If you suspect this can be the case of model tempering by seller, open your phone and unscrew the upper plastic cover, at the right you will see the Motherboard factory code with the phone model in it. Youll have to flash an according complete stock with flash tool.

and from where i can find japanese version of lg g3 sock firmware?

Hi & Newb here! Quick ? re: Lost Network Signal Post Flashing

Hi there!
I'm hoping someone can shed a bit of insight for me.
I was able to flash 2APHE firmware via Odin 3.12 (to rid the battery 60% issue) & everything was fully restored (including battery chg to 100%, no boot loops etc.) with the exception of my network signal.
I did read of another user flashing a modem/radio meant for lollipop rather than marshmallow, but they were on another network.
My IMEI isn't null & SIM shows signal strength, but of course I have the searching for service/mobile network not available msgs.
Just looked & current baseband is 2APK1 (is this the culprit?)
Any thoughts/fixes & Thanks so much in advance!
Never mind-I just fixed it!
I forgot to flash the HOME_CSC & CP files, Duh me, LOL!
Well for anyone looking to get back to 100% battery, this worked for me.

Moto z play with imei and without signal

How are you!
I hope that someone can help me with this, I had installed the Nougat version of January and everything had worked totally normal for 3 months, so yesterday I put the device in airplane mode for a couple of hours and when I removed it I have no signal. Then I decided to install the latest version of Nougat in this case with security patch March, and the problem is still the same, I do not have the problem that my IMEI has been deleted and besides that I start to be without signal with the equipment Fully functional, everything started when I put it in airplane mode.
Does anyone know it could have happened? My device is XT1635-02, my IMEI appears perfectly in IMEI information and in SIM status
Also I already probe with other SIM and neither is that, I have reinstalled three times the last Firmware of March the first time without the modem commands, and the last two times includes the modem commands and I continue without signal and obviously without loss of IMEI

Mam be hardware issue ..,..
You should give it to service center.
What is the probability that a hardware problem caused it to put the device in airplane mode for a couple of hours?
