phone signal problem ? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

okay so on my galaxy note i have a full signal usually with the H icon, and even with this full signal sometimes my phone gets stuck sending a message or i cannot ring/recieve calls ? it just goes straight through to voicemail. i check my phone and yeah full signal with H. sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt :/
what could be the reasons for this ?
i am in the uk and running the german official jellybean what i got told works fine
but also if i remember correctly it did the same thing on a different rom.
any help is much appreciated and thanks you

i get the same problem.usually only if i have my phone docked.
im running the alliance rom

yeah its really strange i can have full signal but if someone tries to ring me it says my phone is turned off haha :/ i need my phone to be reliable.

Don't use mobile Internet everytime? Disable it then make calls and receive calls it should work

Can't Use Data While On a Call

I seem to be having issues using Data when I'm on a call. I'm on T-mobile in San Francisco running 2.2.1. Does anyone else have this problem or know how to remedy this?
Contrary to T-Mobile's position that I can do data while on a call, I typically have the same issue as you. I've only been able to get online a few times while on a call. Usually there's no data connection available.

You can only use data during a call when you see the little 3g symbol at the top near your signal bars. If it shows E, then you can't.
I am not sure if the problem has anything to do with being on T-Mobile. I'm in India & I have observed that on all versions of android, there seems to be a problem in following cases :-
1. Making a call while an sms is being sent out. Try it, and your sms would be returned undelivered & call would not get through. You'll have to reboot the phone to make it work again.
2. Try making a call while data transfer is on. It fails.
3. If some one calls you while data transfer is on, he gets a busy tone.
I started off on my Nexus One with 2.1 & I'm currently on 2.2. My friend who owns a galaxy s and is on 2.1 also has the same problems.
None of these problems existed on my nokia e90.

1. Never tried, but happened to receive calls with SMS being sent. Worked.
2. Works fine.
3. Works fine. Moreover, I happen to use a lot of tethering, and tether for hours while talking on the phone - calling people and getting calls.
I guess it's your carrier to blame, not the OS and not the phone(s).
To the OP: as everyone said and will say in this thread, watch for your connection. Having 3G signal is a requirement.

You must be in a 3G area for simultaneous voice and data.

i dont get those errors, and i've specifically tested making a call while transferring data, and many combinations of that.
i have never, though, tried the sms send and call test. i'll have to try that out.
anyway, the nexus one can use data during a phone call on the 3G network. if you are connected to EDGE then it will not work and the data will pause.
My phone does show a 3G signal and I still can't do it. I know that T-Mobile throttle the speed. Do you think it has to do with throttling?

it must be some isolated case with your spcific sim card or something. when connected to 3g you absolutely should be getting simultaneous voice and data, its very well know. not sure what else you could do.
This is weird. Ive always been able to get simultaneous voice and data. Never had a problem.

signal problems

hi
I have got a SGS on Vodafone running Dark Knight 2.1
I have to use the phone in 2g mode.
When I put the phone in 3g mode my signal goes completely. I have spoke to Vodafone and then said use 2g mode.
But I can’t send or receive picture messages.
I don’t use much mobile internet but I would like to use picture messages.
Thanks for looking
try another rom to see if the problem is in the rom/modem. try for example codename android ics, it has worked fine for me.

Missed Calls

Hello,
I'm on EE UK network and I keep getting text messages that i've missed a call even when i'm at home where i'm connected to wireless and also have 3 or 4 bars signal.
don;t understand why this keeps happening. I try calling my phone from another mobile and it works OK.
Any one know why this might happen?
Thanks
Are you sure its recent calls? Depending on your carrier it might log it and send it as a reminder later or something like that.

Problems like this are quicker to fix by wiping your phone, if you have data you want to backup either use titanium backup or do a nandroid backup (build into CWM)

I've wiped the phone but just found the problem still exists, any help with this will be appreciated. It's very annoying that people cant get through to me.
I read somewhere that the problem might be something to do with the 4g network. the network needs to switch from 4g to 3g to receive voice calls and if it doesn't switch quick enough, it results in a rejected/unconnected call but gives me a text to say someone couldn't get through.
is that possible?
I also have the same problem. While I was holding my device which had three bars of signal ,I was calling my number from a friend and kept getting the msg that it was not available, ..after 2 mins I received about 5 "missed call" messages. I think it's problem of EE though.

Problem with signal

Hey guys, i have a problem with my signal, sometimes it passes from full signal to 2g, even though I'm in a full 3g covered area, and i lose connection in skype every few minutes while I'm on a video call.
I didn't have the problems before, that started today, i tried to re flash the Rom, hasn't solved it, my only concern that yesterday i have tried to charge the phone with the pogo pins, but instead of putting the - on the - and the + on the +, i have put it the wrong way, and the phone had shutdown, and then nothing happened, just that stupid and annoying problem!!!
is it have something to do with that? how can i fix it???

I'm on O2 UK, this phone probably has the worst signal i've ever experienced. It'll regularly go from 4 bars to "x" (no signal) on and off all through the day, or it will say it has a full signal and my friends tell me they've been trying to call me all day & have sent me texts.
It's got to the point where I'm looking at selling the phone now, as it's fast becoming no use to me. It's not the network, I can sit next to a friend also on O2 UK with an iPhone and they can stream a youtube video, I can't even make an outgoing phone call (just goes BEEP BEEP BEEP and hangs up).
Shame, I love the features of the phone, but its useless if i cant receive phone calls or texts on it.
Its about 2 months old, never been rooted has all updates applied that have appeared (14.1.G.2.257 at the moment) and has had the awful signal problems since day one. If i knew it was going to be so bad I would have returned it, but left it too late (14 day return period)
Never happened at the moment.
Poor Signal
I am also having poor signal problems maybe someone could help with setting ideas??????????

The signal fluctuation is most likely related to the aluminum sides(a reason why T-Mobile went with plastic).

Xperia Z Shows full network but cant receive or make calls

Hello everyone,
I use the stock indian version of Android 4.4.4 (.283) version of android.
I face this stupid ambiguous problem which leaves me in a fix. My phone shows full network, not a bar less in the network signal bar but when you go to make a call or receive em, well all the signal bars are of no use. You can;t message,you can't use your internet. The funny thing is you don't get to know whether your phone is working or not unless you try to make a call yourself.
I tried flashing the phone again, changed my sim card but yet I face the same problem. Can anyone of you help me with this problem.
Your valuable responses would be very important for me.
Thanks and Regards.

You can check it using airplane mode. Turn it on & off.
I suspect your network is to be blamed for this which shows full signals but it is inundated by requests which are more than it can handle and thus you can not use your phone even with full signal strengths. Signals are merely boosters installed in your area but all requests are made in main server .
