Hi - I'm new the forum. I searched through the old topics but cant find anything which answers my question.
Im on three mobile UK - Im roaming in Croatia (EU). My phone seems to automatically connect to the A1 network, however Data/internet doesnt seem to work on A1. So I then have to manually select a different Carrier. eg. HT or Tele2. Data works fine on these networks, however after a few minutes it kicks me off these networks and goes back to A1. Therefore it gets very annoying having to manually select a carrier every 5 minutes.
Is there anyway to force select a network so it stays on it? Or is there a way to block a particular network?
I have a Huawei P20 pro - android Oreo
Thanks!
hi sorry to bump this thread, but ive spent many hours on the phone with both Three and Huawei and both of them cant tell me how to fix this issue (they blame each other). does anyone have any idea on how to fix this problem? many thanks
i dont think this is a huawei problem but a carrier problem.

Hello All,
I have a problem with my kaiser, it started i think 2 weeks ago. I have vodafone (netherlands) with a data connection account (hsdpa). Now is the problem that i can't use umts (3g) or hspda. The only thing i can use is gprs. It looks like the modem or something is broken. But that is a kind of weird because (if i understand correctly) its al the same chip (wifi and so on). When i open internet explorer it begins to connect a gprs, 3g data connection. But it can't connect, than you can see a X by the synchronisation arrows (on the top of the screen). And after a few secconds it comes with a message that with the current settings there can't be a data connection. But if seen other messages as well ( the modem on the other side disconnected the connection) The weird thing is that i tried my sim card in my friends kaiser there it works fine, so it have to be my kaiser.
Ok what i tried:
I have a dutch htc kaiser (not vodafone branded or anything)
I use the latest dutty rom, but i tried the orriginal rom and different roms to see if the problem was the rom or something.
When i let the 3g mode on i can see that the phone finds a 3g connection (to call over umts).
Is there any program or tool or something so i can test the modem?
Or does anyone know a sollution for me, i will be very greatfull!!
Ok i tried a other radio to, maybe this was the problem. But it didn't, at this moment i have the default htc dutch rom (who was on the phone when i got it). I searched the net for the same problems, what i found was that this error could be happening when you have your wifi connection open, but i have wifi disabled. The phone is still receiving a 3G connection, but after a few secconds the 3G icon is gone and the failed synchronisation icon (two arrows with an X) is visible. than you can see that the phone is reconnecting. and then if i want to connect to the internet the same story as above is happening.
When i search internet i couldn't find an tool to test the chip/modem.
Because i have it spl unlocked i can't return it for rma, is it posible to restore the default spl?
Hi,
unfortunately I have the same problem with my Kaiser. I have an unbranded German version and it worked fine with all bands (GPRS, EDGE, UMTS(3G) and HSDPA) but since two weeks ago its only working with GPRS and EDGE mode. I have to change band-selection from AUTO to GSM in order to make or receive any calls.
I didn't do any ROM flashing, everything remains the same as the device was shipped.
I assume, that something is damaged but I have no idea how it could happen or how I can find out exactly what is causing the problem.
Since there is still warranty I'll return my Kaiser soon.
seems to be a widening problem
hi,
it seems many have the same issue, see my other posts for linkage to some other threads on it...no solution yet as far as I can tell.
rich
p.s. moderators any chance to link these threads and make a sticky?
ok, thanks for your reply. I've allready found another thread for that issue. But im still uncertain if its a bug in my device or a combination of a bug with a provider specific (Tmob Germany) problem or if its only the provider to blame for??
Chris
I have a slightly different problem. I don't have 3G in my area but only EDGE. Now the problem is that I cannot get speeds higher than about 80 kbs with EDGE.
Now when I put the same SIM in my Touch I can get speeds upto 200 kbs. So obviously this is not a problem of my service provider but rather something wrong with the device.
I have repeated the trial by swapping SIMs a number of times but with similar results all the time. Really don't know of a solution. Will appreciate any help.
haven't seen the edge problem
hi,
my edge speeds seem to vary more by location...I measure up to 200+kbs but have seen it go much lower too. there is a location where I can still get 3G working and i measured up to 1.7mbs for downloading! At my home location it is sporadic edge only and I can't even always get to speakeasy.com to test it, sometimes the speedtest says its not licensed..switching to wifi and it works. My guess is some needed ports are getting blocked by at&t at times..because sometimes it works. I brought all this up with at&t..they are taking some charges off this month and switched me to a cheaper plan too...so they at least seem to care even if they can't quite fix things yet.

I've got an Orange UK Kaiser and it was working nicely. Then I had it unlocked using the service from http://www.imei-check.co.uk. I can use a Vodafone SIM to call and text without any problem. However when I tried to use 3G connection to browse the internet, it automatically tried to connect via Orange Internet and then failed, not surprisingly. So, how can I set up the phone to use Vodafone's 3G network instead of Orange's? It seems I can set up a new connection but I have not a single clue how to do it. I apologise if this is already asked and answered on the forum, I really couldn't find it. So, could anybody please point me to the right thread, or tell me how to solve the problem? Many many thanks.
Just google for vodafone's GPRS connection settings and either create a new connection or replace the orange one's details in start, settings, connections tab, connections.
problem solved, many thanks for the help.
PROBLEM SOLVED - DEFECTIVE SIM CARD. Thanks everybody !!!
Hi guys,
I really need your help with this one, here's the deal :
1. just bought my second SGS from vodaphone CH last week.
2. the phone came with 2.1 stock
3. i was not able to get data connection (able to make phonecalls and sms, but no 3g)
4. my apn settings are correct (i have another sgs configured same way on same network)
5. decided to upgrade to 2.2 (JPH) hoped this would help - NO
6. updated MODEM & CSC to the SAME ones working on my second SGS - STILL NOT WORKING
what else could it be ???
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP

Here's what's there, can you see what is wrong ?
Try this, worked for me
This is a weird coincidence. I have (had!) the exact same problem.
My problem was when I reflashed my galaxy S with stock firmware back again, I lost 3g connection. Using a different sim (which supports only Edge) I was able to get edge connection but with my sim, there was no connection.
Here's what I did. It seems when you select the band selection to "Automatic" it somehow didnt get registered properly even though it showed up on the settings->Wireless and network->Mobile networks->NetworkMode. Even though it read GSM/WCDMA (auto mode) it wasnt actually the case.
So - type *#2263# on your phone to enter the Service Mode's Band Selection.
There see if first row is [1] AUTOMATIC[] OR [1] AUTOMATIC[*]
In my case it wasnt selected ie. there was no *. So I clicked on it and did that selection myself and baam!! H connection. It connected even before I exited from service mode.
I tried a 2g and 3g card after that multiple times and it connects properly to E or H from then on.
Give it a try. I am hoping that your APN is set properly.
Anup
Thanks for the help, but unfortunately this didn't work :-(
1. Automatic was selected.
2. Ive tried to play around with the options there and within the mobile networks.
Nothing works ... this is so frustrating :-(

Why didn't you just call Vodafone and get their help before flashing the phone If you already have another SGS configured same way at the same location with 3G, then chances are there is a hardware problem with the phone.
Anyways, try contacting vodafone, they might still do something about it (despite the fact you have voided their warranty by flashing).

The problem is that I'm not from Czech Republic. The phone was purchased there by a friend of mine and brought to me...
Hi every one, i have huawei p7 l10 b133sp01 and its show me roaming, i am in norway using norway sim card, who can help me with that? Sometimes 3g sometimes R, what i shell do?
I have read its a place problem about the cust info. That partition haven't got the properly info of the carrier, so the phone think that you are out . That happens because your carrier use the network of other carrier. For example imagine that your carrier its apex, but use the o2 network, in fact its using another , that's roaming and if the phone haven't got the information to know that the roaming is local , show that.
Some people say that they can solve the problem installing the udpate.app of the vendor cards. Didn't work for me. The other way is try th edit build.prop adding new lines , but you need root for that ..good luck.
Hello!
I hope someone can help me with this "little" problem that I'm experimenting with my Xiaomi mi 9T Pro running MIUI Global 10.3.3.0 (Stock) I checked everything before buying and the phone is fully compatible with my carrier (I'm from Venezuela), however, I noticed that when the phone is on 4G it switches to 3G/H/H+ in order to make/receive calls (which is pretty normal since my carrier does not support VoLTE). The problem comes when there is an incoming call, it should switch automatically to 3G/H/H+ BUT it does not happen all the time, in fact, I can say that it only happens 25% of the time when I was testing, of course, when it does not happen there is no way to receive the incoming call.
So far I tried:
- Forcing the phone to stay on 3G (everything works great)
- Testing the different network options (it switches from 4G to 3G but not always as it should)
- Switching from SIM slot 1 to slot 2
- At the moment the preferred network type is LTE/TD-SCDMA/UMTS (default)
Could it be a software issue? or could it be related to my carrier? I haven't tried using a SIM card from another carrier.
After all, I bought a PHONE that does not behave like an actual phone all the time, so, I hope someone can help me with this.
Thanks in advance.
Thank you, I almost thought I was the only one.
I bought my Xiaomi mi 9T Pro running MIUI Global 10.3.3.0 (Stock) a week ago and I have the same symptoms like you.
Im on A1 Network in Austria running default network settings and I realized after hours I couldn't make calls (and obviously did't receive any).
This is the first phone I had this network problems, and I am on A1 network for 20 years with different phones....
I hope someone can share some light why this happens and what are the best settings for European (Austrian) A1 network.
Trying to switch to LTE/UMTS, but that setting is always reset to the default above after reboot.
As its also my work phone it would be very bad not recognizing for hours that I'm not reachable...
Thank you !
A1 supports VoLTE, try to enable it on your phone, I have no issues running a dual SIM config with A1 and 3 .....

Hi! It feels better knowing that I'm not alone.
The fact is that I can actually make calls (it take from 3 to 5 seconds switching from 4G to 3G/H), the problem comes when there is an incoming call, sometimes it works (it switches to 3G/H and when the call is ended, it switches back to 4G) but most it does not. I just tried LTE/UMTS and it does work but not for long, I can see that it happens and sometimes it does not. I found a "solution" which involves forcing to 3G/H but it's not the point, there should be a real solution. At this moment, I haven't found a correct network configuration, all the ones that I've tried just have worked for me for some time, and then the problem is back without even rebooting the phone. Could it be caused by a faulty SIM or it's just a network/carrier issue? I don't want to think that it's a hardware issue.

Whats your ROM Version ?
I alreaddy tried to enable VoLTE, I can switch it on and the VoLTE Symbol appears.
The problem is - I have no caller ID. I don't even see the phone number when someone calls me ("unbekannter Anrufer" - "unknown caller")
That's not conveniant, so as soon as I switched OFF VoLTE caller recognition was enabled again.
Is VoWIFI working at you with A1 ? I can enable it but I don't get the symbot at home in my WIFI network.
So for now I see two options:
- the correct (stable) network configuration for Austria that persist in the phone configuration
- enabling VoLTE but with a solution for a working caller ID
I finally got found the solution
Problem is the notification settings.
This was somehow reset after the update to mui 11.
To fix the issue:
1. Go to settings
2. Click notification
3. Click the notification badges (3rd icon)
4. Find the "phone" icon
5. Enable the show notification
6. Exit to settings and test
Having same problem
Can someone help me I am from Malta and have Xiaomi mi9t pro and from last night stopped receiving calls and incoming . Tried with sim 1 and it worked but it happened again . I tried the notification settings but still the same problem .
I had trouble not receiving calls also...
After looking here, and also on YouTube, I started going through my phone again. I too was not getting my calls a lot, but I have only had my phone maybe 2 weeks, so there's not much on it yet. One thing I am always adding is themes. The theme feature is it's own pre installed app as I'm sure we've all seen. Different one's have been doing/blocking certain features at times on my phone. My husband's calls were being sent to voicemail, and some other important calls. I noticed the other day when I tried a new theme it locked me out of my phone with no preface to get back to the lock screen. I had to take a picture and select send to get back to the lock screen. Remembering this, I decided to go back to the original developer theme for the phone. My phone now rings. Original developer mode also controls the call feature, not just the theme, which I did not know or read until now. Going back to it I believe kind of reset my configuration. I would say give this a try for sure. Hope it helps someone else I love my phone and didn't want to lose it. FYI, I am on TMobile network in the USA.
Hi!
I have a very similar problem on a xiaomi redmi note 8t. I tried various settings, but failed. This is annoying because the phone is relatively new. I think it is a hardware problem.

I have the same issue here in same phone but on EU MIUI 12.0.3.0 .. with the same symptoms u described .. i suspected in sim card and i replaced it with a new one and the issue still there .. did u find a solution for this issue?
I'm not sure if this is the same issue as what's described by OP, but it's somewhat similar (not receiving calls). Sometimes my colleagues will call me on Whatsapp and state that they're unable to reach me via the cellular network. This is what fixed it for me:
Settings - SIM cards & mobile networks - Select your sim card - turn off 'use volte (use volte to improve the quality of voice calls)'
