[Q] Signal trouble but don't understand what

So, I installed SlimROM for S3mini and i think it's awesome.
However, I've had some trouble with my internet when i'm not on wifi. The logo says I have 3g but its very unstable. Just now I tested it and the play store worked fine and then suddenly didn't anymore. But if i press Retry for about 10 times, it sudden;y works fine again.

One thing i've noticed as well is how tasker is unable to find my locations based on net sometimes.
Anyone know what's going on? and what i can do about it.

Does this occur in one area or anywhere you go?

Many different places.
I think i've found some interesting stuff. It seems that when i'm on HSPA Internet works but not when i'm on 3G... Anyone know what this could mean?

Probably the location you are at does not have the refarmed 1900 towers, where i live if i drop to 3g it would instantly not work and would have to wait till im back on HSPA or H to get decent signal.

Could be although that wouldn't make sense as the phone had no troubles with internet before I install SlimROM.

You can try a different rom then cause some roms have bad data as its not fully stable on their sources. So for now flash a different rom and see if it improves.

So I would like to Bump this thread. As after trying many different maclaw ROM's, waited for months to see if anything would develop that would help me, It's still not fixed.
So the situation is this: My phone's data works fine in the whole of europe (I just travelled and never let me down). Because so much time has passed I've installed SlimKat ROM, and again my data seems to be unstable.
I'm thinking it's a Modem problem and I wonder if there is anything I can do about this.
Also, once I read that someone had a similar problem, no fix for it though.

Also, If other people are aving similar troubles, please post to get a feel for how often this problem occurs

You can try switching your phone in 2G only mode and see if net is working that way. It will be a little slower than 3G, but try and report Maybe the 3G signal in your area is weak.

Thanks, I'll try this. However, I don't think my 3G sidnal is weak in my area as I've never had the problem with StockRom. Also, I'm having the trouble wherever i am throughout my whole city and in other cities. To me, that doesn't seem to be a signal problem.

Data For Nexus 6

Alright guys... I bought the nexus 6 on Black Friday on Amazon when i went for vacation in the states... Now im back in my own country and i am only getting Edge in the data section and i have flashed numerous Radios and Unlocked the secret phone menu and chose LTE only (No Data when I do this) ... SO i did some research and it says that the US version that amazon is selling only supports certain bands and im wondering if this is why i am only on Edge ...
Any brilliant minds can help me with this dilemma so i get atleast get H+ or preferrably 4G for my data connection please

US version is a model XT1103, International version is XT1100 or something along those lines (I know the US version has a 3 in it). I can't remember if there's a conversion method like I remember the N5 having. Definitely check the bands your carrier uses vs the bands supported by the phone.

Thanks for the response... I just went ahead and switched carrier and now getting H+ so i guess its a carrier problem... Now my only problem is the split screen issue

I've not had that problem since 5.0.1 iirc it had something to do with the stock kernel and disabling gpu 2d drawing fixed it or something along those lines.

Bummer.
In Developer Options there is setting "Disable HW overlays" Try that. I don't remember it that survives reboot. I have had mine replaced by Play Store in early January 2015. Never had this problem since.

Thanks Much... Going to try this in combination with LeanKernel which supposedly helps with the problem as well... This is a real deal breaker with the phone for me... I've had my nexus 5 from the initial release without any problems and this experience just sucks
Edit: So disabling HW overlays did not fix the problem...

I had that happen to my screen one time. A power button screen off and back in fixed it. Has not happened again.

After 5.1.1 update can't register on network. :(

This is very odd and I have tried to follow any advice found online to alleviate this. I have done many factory resets, reloaded ROM, Modem, Bootloader all via ODIN, went to t-mobile to get a new sim card, and manually created APN to name a few ... but nothing seems to work. I see that I can not downgrade either so I have a working brick if I am close to WiFi... oddly enough the only way it lets me call or text is if I am connected to WiFi and have WiFi calling turned on.

Did you just buy the phone from a second hand seller?

IMEI is probably blacklisted.

Walk into your carrier store and they can check while you wait.

I have the same problem with my sim unlocked T-Mobile Note 4 but only when roaming. Before 5.1.1 everything was alright.

I had gone in and they even gave me a new sim card just to be sure the sim card had not gone bad on me.

I have unlocked note 4 with 5.1.1 with an AT&T SIM card. Sometimes, about 5 times a day, I cannot register on network when I am connected to WiFi for data. If I turn WiFi off, and get 4G LTE symbol, then I can register and make calls. Very strange! How do I got back to old 4.4 version?

Not possible to go back to 4.1.1 after 5.1.1.
Try going back to stock firmware and see if problem continues.
Edit
Your better off buying att phone and have a working device, as per your other thread you don't want to play with roms, not on these new Samsung phones, to much security in place.

Strangely when I roam I experience the following:

When I roam, I loose voice but data remains even though there's the "no service" message, and upon inspection not even a carrier!
How come?!?
I have tried flashing several modems and 5.1.1 roms with no luck.
Cheers!

I'm going to blame this one on root.

Confirmed with T-Mobile that I am not blacklisted. They did give me a special number to call into for help with this release, they claim that I was not the only person who had problems with this update. Since I do not have a landline I have to wait till I get a break at work to try contacting them.... will post results if any. lol

I can't get my phone to connect to anything, the only thing that works for me is calls and text when I am connected to wifi with wifi calling enabled for some reason. Very strange but it seems that T-Mobile is aware of a number of issues related to this release. I have even tried installing custom ROM to see if that would work but it seems that whatever I do nothing works. I have reloaded stock firmware with odin more times than I can count at this point.

Highly doubt it because not everyone is having this problem after root on 5.1.1.
Also, I've been root prior to 5.1.1 without problems.
But thanks

I guess having a cheap phone would not be so bad at this point... at least I would be able to call in to work if I am going to be late.

I was rooted prior to update, I first flashed back stock rom and then ran OTA. Something did not go as planned but good to know that I am not alone here. I have been so happy with this phone, bought it as soon as it had come out. Hopefully this will be something that t-mobile can fix because I still owe 250 on this phone sadly.

Got done with tech support just now. We found my baseband is not the most recent and have also filed a ticket with their engineers to see if there anything that could be making it so I can not register. I will update thread when I have heard back.

I've since updated to the correct baseband.... no luck. They also recommended going to bestbuy to see if the samsung rep there can do anything.

Best buy may be your best bet, they have software provided by Samsung that can (maybe) fix your problem, if not maybe they can help you with Samsung getting a replacement.
Good luck.

OnePlus 3 : What nowadays ?

Hello guys !
I talk for all OnePlus3's owners : you all know there were many many bugs : Call dropping, Call noise for the receiver, Wifi strength, random reboot, and many more...
Do you still have those kind of bugs and glitchs ?
Thank you for the answer,
Cheers.

I never experience all of this since i bought mine 3 months ago.

Signal is a crap. Most of the time having 3-4 bars (doesn't matter LTE or H+) in the centre of my city, where on HTC 10 I had LTE+ on full bars most of the time.

I have never had these issues at any point...

I've used the phone for about two months and never experienced any issue.

I use to have poor reception 2-3 months before after updates everything is working fine.

Works great for me on the stock ROM. all functional issues have been addressed in my opinion
Bad reception is usually a symptom of the user's location or country

No issues for me using it since the launch

No issue here... I don't use LTE or any other tho.

Netwrok signal all Time poor.. When i sent sms its need more time to send.. and Its very Weak for Get signal ??

Have had it since 9/12 and have had no issues. Reception on at&t is better than my old Op2 and just as good if not better than wife's iphone 6s.

No issues experienced on this phone since I got it.

Updated to 3.2.4 during the setup only. Never had a single issue which people reported like call drops, lte issues etc. I guess the older units had these issues.

Ive heard the same issues on my old phone.. signal just acts strange nothing u have to worry about with the OP3

Had mine since it was released and I haven't had a single problem with it, far from it. Every "common known bugs" you are mentioning are points where I'm saying the OP3 excels at. And when I recommend the phone to others the ONLY negative points I have is back camera lins poking out (a case fixes that), no sd card expansion (minor inconvenience) and that the battery isn't easily replaced (dash charge outbalance that).

Perhaps the HTC10 was overplaying the signal reading? TBH I don't take any notice of the bars as long as I can get a signal/make & receive calls, on that score I've never noticed any issues.
There's minor issues with the OP3 but none are real killers and there's still no better smartphone when it comes to value/performance.
Just wish OP would hurry up and explain properly what direction they intend taking the Oxygen OS.

Yeah I had never even opened the app beforehand, but in the past couple of days I've been smashing that update button in the app and it just says that I'm on the latest version available, emui 8.0. So I can only guess that there's still some waiting left to be done

Is all good man. Everything definitely feels a little quicker and snappier. Only thing I'm not too keen on right now is the icons for phone signal and WiFi have moved to the left of the bar and can't see where to change it. Overall though, a positive experience :good:

This morning. FIG-LX1, Italy, was in beta program.

Since EMUI 9.1 (FIG-LX1 in Italy) I have noticed:
- less RAM available in daily use (first around 1.7-1.8 on average, now around 1-1.3)
- the only wifi I use is at home, but now Wi-Fi + does not automatically turn off wifi when I leave home and don't wake it up when I come back (yes with EMUI 8)
- the Facebook app does not hide notifications in the notifications section (at the moment it seems so, but when the app is reopened there are still all of them)
