[Q] good signal but no network - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I have a strange problem. I am unable to connect to any of the GSM networks around me. But when I see the signal strength it's always good like -55dbm, -63 dbm, -69 dbm, -73 dbm.......never beyond that....
but still I cannot register to the network.
Anyone have any idea?
Thanks

WCDMA signal horrible

I've flashed my phone countless of times now over the past months and one thing I was hoping for would be better signal strenght for WCDMA mode... I live in Switzerland and my provider is sunrise. Whenever I'm using WCDMA mode the signal is just horrible. Mostly 1 bar or sometimes dropping to zero. 3g and H works most of the time, but the signal is bothering me.. I've tried different modems etc.. but nothing seems to change.. Does anyone else have this problem?? what can I do about it? GSM has full bars most of the time and that's why it's so weird.
also worthy to note is that people hear an echo sometimes when they're talking to me both in GSM and WCDMA mode.
it would be great if someone knows how to solve this problem...
have you been on your providers website to check the coverage in your area ? they could be a fault on their part affecting your signal strength
Im on Vodafone UK and i have terrible 3g signal, I can only use 2g/GSM otherwise my phone doesnt recieve 1 bar of signal - bit of a bummer when you have a smart phone and unlimited internet
Finally, How was your signal before you flashed ? when the phone popped out of the box ? was it still poor then ?

[Q] Poor radio (signal) fluctuating problem....

The signal on my Sony Xperia SP fluctuates all the time and changes mode from H to H+ quite a bit, and when I pick the phone up it usually disappears to nothing and I lose signal.
Is there a fix for this? Does anyone else experience this problem?
Made a video to show what I mean https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQVTygYlK-k
It is normal that the signal changes from time to time. Normaly a connection is just H and when available it will switch to H+ when the network is in use.
What I advice at first is a new sim card. This does fix most of the network signal issues

Its normal. You have poor HSDPA signal in your area. Switch to 2G Only Mode when you don't need fast internet connection via data packets.
It will hold better signal (of course if you have 2g transmitters in your area) don't switch modes at all so battery drain is also a little less.

[Q] Signal Strength problem in 3G

Hello everybody.
I recently bought a HTC One M7. I'm satisfied with it, except when it comes to 3G connectivity and signal strength. I only have from 1 to 3 bars when connected in 3G, while with my chinese phone I was having complete bars.
Here is a little comparaison :
Code:
3G
chinesephone -91 dBm
htc -101 dBm
EDGE
-79 dbm (chinesephone )
-77 dBm (htc)
Sometimes with my HTC, it can go down to -107 dBm, without touching it (just by looking at the screen) !
I put in attachment a screenshot showing the dBm variation over time. Sometimes it can get a pretty good signal and suddenly having a bad signal and stays there. Please bear in mind the chinese phone doesn't have the same problem...
I did all the updates, I'm on 4.4.3 and Sense 6.0. What should I do ? Should I send it back for reparation ?
Thanks you!

No signal on SMT-705

Just want to ask if your smt 705 ever displays a no signal? The reason I'm asking is I noticed that on my device, the signal bars are always full even when there's no sim card.
Also if I'm on an area with no signal for a long time then went back to an area with a signal, my tab will show full bars of signal strength. However when you try to send a text, it will you that there is not connected to a mobile network.
Anybody having the same issues?
It depends whether you are connected to a WiFi network or not.

jio network issue

Currently I am on Jio 4g roaming in other state. I am facing signal issues. There are frequent drops in signal while it is present on other phones at the same time. Any solutions?
All z1s have this problem. This phone isn't good for remote areas/ the areas with weak signals.
And its jio's poor service too
So nothing can be done?
Yes
