I bought t-mobile tab without contract . Craigslist . It has sim card , but there is no internet or anything like that . It shows signal bars , sometimes even full signal . My Question(s) is :
I pull out simcard and restart tab , and it shows full bars signal and sign that there is no simcard . What is that signal ?? What Can I do with it ??
Question 2 : Am I going to be able to get updates without contract ? Contract people will get OTA updates . what about me ? I am using tab for wifi , downloaded tv shows and movies , music , games , book reading , gps and few others .
Just showing the signal, but if you don't have a plan, it ain't gonna work. Updates? I doubt anyone, contract or not will ever see an update for the tab.

I now have the following :
Firmware : 1.5
Baseband : 62.50S.20.17U_2.22.19.26I
Knrel : 2.6.27-00392-g8312baf
[email protected] #72
Build : CRB17
After the first install, i did a wipe and then as fellows --
This is my present situation now--
I go to Mobile Networks (Data Roaming is ticked and Use only 2G networks is also ticked) , then i go to Network Operators... then i click on Search Networks.... here i sometimes get "Error while searching networks" and sometimes i get the name of my network along with the otehr networks but when i click on the network name..it says "Your sim card is not allowed to connect to this network"
I have ried it with LOOP MOBILE (earlier BPL MOBILE) and also with AIRTEL.
The sim cards work perfectly fine on other phones, but not on this.
Is it a hardware problem? if it were a hardware problem, then i would probably not get the list of network , right?
Any suggestions...HELP !!!
Same thing happened to me after I upgraded to the latest radio, I live in a att/verison only area so I am roaming. My g1 just shows an x like there is no signal while my dash is on EDGE and full bars. So if anybody can help out, more than one person needs this info.
a new thing i just realised in my phone.
when i stand very close to the a GSM tower...i get about 2-3 bars and as soon as i move away from the GSM tower... i dont get network.
i guess my problem is an hardware issue... ???
Or maybe not..!!!!
Evening good people, I've had my Nokia X2 for some months now and It is the phone I've waited for since my N9. It is perfect in every way except for one issue! I have only Edge signal! No 3G or 3G plus! Setting the sim to 3G only looses all connection. When I first bought the phone it was region locked to china, all language apps came in chinese. After some tinkering I re branded the phone with the Nokia care suite, however this did not fix the problem (neither did Flashing radio, flashing stock rom). Like I've said this is the dream phone and the fact that I can only use it on edge kills me, it's virtually useless without wifi. I'm currently using the LollipopMOD posted here. I've done what I can someone please help! thanks
Hi man . Can you flashing nokdroid for your phone ?
If you can . Do this . Then select english language and config this . Go to settings . And connection setting and select 3g only for your 3g sim card . But seee this you select sim is 3g .
Select your siginals to automatic . Then rebot you phone . If you you dont have siginal . Your phone or your sim is not working correctly . Go to the phone rippears .
Will done .
I only get Edge network too, with T-Mobile USA. I think maybe your carrier, like mine, doesn't support the same frequencies used by the X2DS? I don't like Edge network either, but sometimes you have to take the good with the bad.
Hi there, well I got this new tablet and its pretty good apart from I cant get vodafone 4g to work on it... I got a 4g data plan put the sim in and only got H+ max... when I put the sim in it said due to sim change/new sim will need to update settings but as the device doesnt do it automatically will have to do manually but vodafone doesnt show any settings info on their site when I clicked on the link... spoke with vodafone a few times and so far no luck even though they say the tablet supports 4g and they support the tab... now I swapped my phones sim with the tab sim and at first my phone wouldnt do 4g either till I installed the settings they texted me across (phone supports auto settings) and then the data card got 4g... but the phone card in the tab didnt and did the same message saying get the settings which I cant do as they are not on the vodafone site... anyone have any idea? many thanks
ok so after a lot of searching it appears it might be the fact that the tablet I ordered does not in fact come with b20 (800dd) which is what pretty much all the providers in the UK uses... I think this is hardware and not firmware related (is this correct) so I might have to return it... the tablet was advertised as having the 800 freq range so I either need to deal with H+ or return... ffs just set it all up too...
Hello everyone,
I just bought a Oneplus 3T and it's a really good phone, but i'm facing an issue : 4G only appears a few time (with almost full bars) but it's just coming back to H+ every time, i mean every time.
Usually i have 4G in that place, even with my old ****y Samsung Xcover 3 and its the same with another phone operator sim card.
What do you recommend for me ?
Thank you very much
Details :
French version
Up-to-date (Android 8.0.0)
Phone operator : Sosh (tried B&YOU)
Fix
*#*#4636#*#* use the diagnostic under phone information and move it to 4g/lte only
I've seen this solution but it's not a real one, no ?
If I put LTE Only, i will not have 3G/H/H+ and stuff if there is no 4G around me, right ?
Perhaps your ISP radio tower is far away, doesnt mean its phones fault
I had some issues with sim. I've to get new sim and 4g service reactivated
Well, as i said before, i was able to have 4G even with my old Xcover3 in that place, so it's not the network provider's fault.
4G is working on my Oneplus 3T, it's just that it's most of the time, like MOST, on H+ and not 4G even if I had 4G in thèses places before...
It looks like he phone auto balance between 4G & 3G as soon as 4G is a little bit weak (even weak, it's still beter than 3G anyway...) and I noticed that sometimes the data are just turned down (nothing DL, charge, but H+ still on status bar).
Im on Oreo stock OOS, do you know if there is any issues on this new version ?
Hey
I'm live in france and i have a phone package with operator Orange
I have a little (BIG) problem with my Mi 9 when i'm at work ( on other place it's work very good)
My network 4g have issue by intermittence
exemple : i play video game online , all work and instantly while 4-5 minutes i don't have any 4g
it's random , sometime my network 4g work 30 minutes and after disappears and again and again
I did not have this problem since 1 month , it's appear since 2 weeks
Things who was tested : reboot , wipe cache , factory reset
I try to call orange , and they said to me " it's a problem with frequency of you're phone " but i don't believe that , because all 4g bands in france are compatible with Mi 9 , and i did not have this problem before
Orange have verify if they have problems with network on my work but all is good for them , and they said that no customer has reported the same problem in the zone :crying:
The only solution is to force 3g only , 0 problems with 3g
Ps : i don't think it's a harware issue because i don't have this problem on my house etc
Who have the problem ?
Someone can help me ?
Thanks
Nobody can help me please?

Seems you are alone with this problem? Sometimes firmware updates can destroy connections. But I don't know what wrong in your case.
ok thanks
Download Netmonster and add database, then you'll see the signal in dBm and also the frequency. You can go to anfr antennes relais to check where the antennas are. I hope you buy global version otherwise you can have some issues with 4G
Can you tell me if this phone is 4xCA or 3xCA ready : when you activate 4G you'll see on netmonster 800+1800+2100+2600
Thanks
I got the same problem in France, but on the SFR Operator, in 4G as well, since Monday (maybe since Friday 31/05 but I'm always on wifi when not at work).
- Seems like, whatever the cell tower, I get almost no data out. I can make calls on 3G, of course.
- Basically, I've got almost no data output and very limited input (LTE : 7/2 Mb/S speedtest), and I got to use wifi all the time if I want to do something. On 3G, it's 3.9/0.7 Mb/s
I haven't heard of someone else having problems just yet, but that might be either a local issue (I'm near Paris) or a wider cell outage.
I don't think it's related to the phone itself, more on the operator's side, because there hasn't been an update of MIUI justifiying a different behavior.
Yes upgrade to MUI 10 with my mix 2s cause e reduction of TX output so you recieve less, i dont know it's the case for mi9
I got 50 mega in 4g+ 800+1800 with sfr
Try near an 4g antenna like 20 or 100 meters to see if you can have a good speed
