samsung galaxy s3 signal problem - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey everybody i have a problem and its pising me off , well the problem is this when i 1st got my phone i went into mobile network settings> network mode then selected gsm now i keep going from 2 bars to 0 bars is anybody else having this same problem ? im sim unlocked on vodafone uk HELP PLZ

Hi,
I am with o2 and I'm having the same problem. It generally has around 0-2 bars of signal. At the minute I have switched back to auto mode to see if this helps improve things...

Flash different modem with Odin.
Official firmware found here:
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9300
Or
http://samfirmware.com/
More here plus guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671969
You can just extract the modem and flash as individual package with Odin.
Hope this helps

Which one should I flash?

It's trial and error.
Different regions, carriers, location, band, etc all make a difference.
Also, different modems may affect (better or worse) 3g HSPA etc signal stability, strength, speed etc.

Same here. Hoping it's not hardware as I find covering the left side of my device blocks signal!

Maybe try to use different radio baseband. That's what I did to.solve the problem I had.

That's exactly what I've already suggested.
Radio and modem are same. Samsung generally use "modem"

I've got a similar problem it's just with my wifi, it turn of and off,my first thought was of cause
That its the modem and change that would fix it, but after 20 hours(got my phone yesterday)its getting better,but the phone still turns wifi of when is want to dl. large files or in-app dl., like additional files in zombie killer or opgrade an app from within the app.
anyone else have this issue or a solution.
i have resisted to root my phone yet, if i had to return the phone.

Thanks very much for the advice.
Are Samsung likely to release a firmware update to sort out issues like this? I don't really want to start having to flash a brand new phone to try and get it to work as it should out of the box...
Also zodiaxe66; I am having that problem too. The wifi just disconnects and immediately reconnects randomly while I'm using the phones browser...

When is got it yesterday my browsing was awful, but it now it works,large files is where my problem starts, the second i hit dl. the wifi disconnect and yesterday in had a hard time connecting again, but that problem solved itself,now it connect immediately after disconnect.
Still think its a modem problem, but i don't want to flash anything before I'm sure its not a hardware problem(and yeah i know how to flash and reset counter)
Ps.
it just disconnected again and it said "network disconnected - bad connection"
When i try to "ping" i get a false message

If it is a firmware problem and I have to flash, then so be it. Just a bit annoyed that I have a brand new phone that is having problems because the manufacturer didn't load the correct firmware in the first place.
Anyways, I am with O2 in the UK so looking at that Official firmware list
would it make sense to flash this one? -
GT-I9300 O2U I9300XXALE8 Android 4.0.4 01.06.2012 12-05-2012 554452
Thanks very much guys

@muldersleigh
Could u give me a heads up if it fixes the wifi prob. to flash a new modem or firmware..
i would appreciate that

No probs. If I decide to go ahead and flash I will let you know how it goes.
But I just checked and the firmware I posted there that I was thinking of flashing is the one that's already installed on my phone, so not sure which one to go for and if it is trial and error, that means flashing one and working with it for a day and so on until finding one that works well.
That's a lot of effort for a brand new device! I will keep you posted on any developments though. Please do the same for me.
Many thanks

I have the same issues with signal and wifi.
I get weak signal and very weak wifi with dropouts. My 3g even keeps disconnecting.
I'm not sure if it's a hardware probelm or not. If it was software then more people would have a problem.
I'm still not sure whether to get phone exchanged or not.

I'm going to keep an eye on it for another few days and note down any factors that seem to increase the problem etc.
The other thing I should mention is that from time to time during calls it seems to drop out and people have told me it sounds like I'm under water...
This may be related to the signal issues but has anyone else experienced similar voice issues?

I don't know about signal strength,as i don't have a micro-sim.my carrier didn't send it when i ordered it so had to reorder a new sim yesterday.I'll get it Monday. But u don't have to flash a full firmware, just the modem with Odin. I think XXLEF is the latest, if not go to samfirmware.com and check. I won't flash anything till i get my sim on Monday.
but if u need guidance on how to flash,just ask.

As a general rule for Samsung devices, at least for SGS2, most likely same here too.
Modem (Radio) > cellular ie. 2G 3G etc
Kernel > WiFi
Edit: To those that need to flash modem or kernel, The individual packages are for download and link to flashing guide in a previous post. Not necessary to flash full firmware. Easy to flash via Odin.....

Does flashing one of these firmwares void the warrenty?

Possibly if by some chance it get screwed up., but it's official and no real evidence left behind if you need too return it for warranty . Just flash back the o2 firmware. Done. If you have root, this will unroot too .

Hero network bug

Hello everybody,
I own an Orange-FR branded Hero, and it get often disconnected, but doesn't seem to "know" that. The network bars stay stuck, and the "H" is displayed, as if there was a 3G connection.
I still can use Wifi (and enable/disable it), but cannot disable 3G/GSM network, not even going into "plane" mode. The only way to get out of there is to reboot the phone.
Looks like a radio bug for me...
Any ideas ?
Thanks
Yup. Which radio version are you running?
And, are you running the phone stock or with a custom ROM. If custom, try flashing the latest radio (read up on it before doing so though, as some people manage to brick their phones by not reading the instructions)- ie. don't pull the battery out, just let it do its thing.
Hello, thank you for your answer.
The phone is like new, I didn't try to update the OS neither the radio, because of the warranty...
My radio version is 63.18.55.06EU_6.35.06.18.
I'm aware of the flash methods, as I often updated my P3300 with roms found right here
Hello there,
still have the problem, seems it's happening 24h after each reboot of the phone, but sometimes less.
By looking at the message log with the OSMonitor application, I get a lot of "rmnet fifo full, dropping packet", and the time shown in the messages is wrong (near 5h20 instead of 22h40)
Thanks for your help.
Got a new phone from Orange (with a crappy customized rom).
Same problem
what does orange say about the problem?
Hi,
each ppl I could talk to told me a different thing.
Sometimes they say it's because i'm moving to another cell (aren't they joking? it's the way GSM works...), someone told me it was because of a "localisation" problem. Another time my file was "stuck" or sent to a wrong service...
I don't think they have any return on experience about this phone.
probably it is just sales bull**** they are told to say to you...
it's guys from level2 support, that's worrying
They change my phone tomorrow... again...
i sometimes have a similar problem, phone gets stuck on 3g network and only shows as uploading data, i think it might have something to do with facebook sync. i haven't had this problem for a long time now but back in the day it used to happen alot
third phone, same problem
i don't use facebook sync
Same Problem
I was having the same problem, especially when it came to 3g / wireless usage - the phone would suddenly lose all connection to the masts but be unaware of it.
My solution so far is to downgrade the radio - the latest one is the worst for it, I'm using 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.08.29 at the moment and a lot more stable than before...
(using Villains 5.2 rom)

yes I have been getting this issue too.
It uploads data on 3g but doesn't download. I found what appears to be a temporary fix for this issue but it comes back every now and again. I think it is an issue with Orange/Tmobile cell towers.
thanks for your replies,
i'm using the 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.08.29 radio
is there other radio firmwares available ?
thanx

The one listed in my sig is the latest (and arguably the best) radio.
OMG they locked the recovery mode
im on orange and have no problems?To be honest when you talk to them they read from a script, noone there actually knows anything! just searching through a database kinda like windows help and support. If the problem is continuing with new phones id say its your cell area
I have the problem everywhere in the country, they changed the phone, they changed the sim (i'm trying another one right now), ...
That's what makes me think of a network problem.
Whenever you speak to them about issues like this always ask to speak to "high technical team"
They are the only ones that know anything and won't read of a script. They are usually very very helpful as well (or at least are in the UK)

Please HELP! Can't connect to network!

I have checked the forum and no thread had the fix I am looking for. I have K13 flashed on my phone and it was working great for over a week, but now all of a sudden today it stopped connecting to rogers. I have the correct internet and mms apns but my phone does not connect to rogers. I get no data and can send messages only some of the time, but I can receive them. I also can make phone calls, but cannot receive them.
Regardless, I have tried entering the apns again, resetting he network connection multiple times and resetting my phone multiple times. I have no idea why it is doing this. Could it be due to the firmware or is there a setting I need to change. Please help!
I had an issue with rogers today also, had no connection at work through out the day but once i left work it started working.
I really don't think this is a rogers issue. I am going to try flashing a different firmware on my phone... maybe that will fix it... I really don't know what to do. :-(
Another discovery is it works on occasion only and sometimes it shows 3g but does not connect to H+ when it sends out data.
Sounds pretty weird. Did you insert another 50cents when the operator asked??
Was working for a week then with no change at your end the weird crap started...
I'd flash back to stock Rom for your provider and see if all goes back to normal. I'd make a backup 1st to switch back if it's your provider and not the device.
Good luck.

I'm flashing back to an earlier version. KG5 was working fine for me... should I really flash back to original though? that would be KE2 for me.

Up to you really. If KG5 was working good try that 1st. That's what I would do if you are sure it's not your provider at fault.
Just a methodical process of elimination.

Fashing back did not solve the issue...
Doesn't point to your devices software to me from the little I know of your situation.
Could try a different sim...maybe from another network to see if there is something going on there.
Could try your sim in another device also. See if it works the.
Otherwise could flash back to stock. Reset flash counter if need be with jig and take back to shop and see if they can get it going.
Sorry I can't be more helpful without hands on.

I will try the sim card thing. It seems weird to me that it would just stop working like this, but after reading around some think that it is the modem? How could that have even changed in my phone? Does flashing cause it to change? It was working fine for two months solid and for one week on K13.
It is definitely not the sim card. Modem?
I did read somewhere that someones ime number changed when they flashed.
Might be worth a search as I dont have a link.
There is a way to check if ur ime is correct by using the dialer.

Well Rogers actually fixed the issue. I called them and they apparently had tower issues in my area. It is back up and running after me trying to figure all this out. Such a headache, but at least I will know for next time... a problem like this should not randomly arise and the modem should not change if stock firmware is used (given it is the right version). My IME is still there.
Glad to hear all is good. Had my doubts about it being your device
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Thanks for all the help. I went through so many different processes, but I actually managed to get KIES to work with my phone now and all the settings I had are back on it too. So at least something good came out of it. Even if Rogers gave me a huge headache.

Galaxy S III Wifi Issue

Hey guys!
I'm not sure if this is my router problem, or my phone, but most likely my phone.
The wi-fi keeps continue to connect, and disconnect.
Here is the thing. When I bought the phone brand new, my phone behaved normal regarding the wifi, but when I flashed to a XXLF2, and using Checkrom with Siyah kernel, the wifi kept continue connect/disconnect all the time, so I gave another shot just reflashed everything to stock of XXLF2, still same problem.
Now, yesterday, I was flashing a new rom XXLF6, and then Omega rom, the wifi problem was still the same, so I gave it another try and just flashing the stock XXLF6, but the problem didn't either went away. I tried Ninphetamine kernel didn't help much either.
Anyone know what's going on??? You think it's hardware issue here, or something with the rom?
Hope someone could please help me out!
Thanks a lot!
Hi,
I not have the exact answer to you, but I think it is a hardware issue!! I have 2 router in my house (with the same ssid) with my SGS2 there is never problems when I cross the zones, it connects straight away to the other router. BUT with SGS3 it is a pain in the a..... I often need to turn on and off wi-fi several times before it can connect!!!! I think the 2 identical router confuse the SGS3....but not the SGS2 or my Tab. If there is only 1 router it connects straight away......
Yeah! That is actually what I was thinking too. It might be the hardware fault! I'm going to contact Samsung tomorrow, and see what's going on!
I have the exact same prob really annoying,but wifi driver is in kernel.I sometimes get "error bad connection " message.
Doesn't matter what kernel I use though.

Do you guys Have ram booster or any other app the like? Ram optimización turns wifi off...
No, but I do hit Clean Memory in the task manager quite often (because presto library is a piece of junk!) maybe that turns it off. I'll test tonight...
I'm also having the same issue, disconnecting, but appears connected in the Wifi settings. I have to go in and turn of power saving mode, but it comes back on after reboot.
Logicalstep
I had this wifi disconnect reconnect issue at work, but never happens at home. I initially thought it was some app I installed, I removed them and still happens at work, but not at home. All the phone settings mentioned here didn't make a difference.
I don't change anything on my phone, so I chuck it to incompatibility, and not an issue with my phone or it's settings.
Home Netgear WNDR3300 pretty much default settings.
The new firmware update XXLFB seems to update radio firmware and kernel. Maybe that will fix the problem.

What radio/modem version did you end up with, my UBLF2 (TTT) stayed the same after the update applied.
I had issues at work. But not at home.
Today I told it to forget my B/G radio and to connect to the N radio. No disconnects, none..
No changes made to the phone at all..
2 phones - only 1 with wifi issues
Hi, noob here. I have been following this issue on androidforums.com (same user name) but since the "fix" came from this site I thought I'd share my relevant info here as well.
My husband and I received 2 Verizon SIII's (32GB) this weekend. Mine works great. His, however, has the wifi disconnect issue. The *#0011# is only a temporary fix for him.
So, for what it's worth, it's not likely to be a router problem, since 1 phone has no wifi issues and the other does.
We talked to Verizon at lunch today and they were interested in the problem and will be calling us at home this evening, with a Samsung rep. I'll post more once we've heard from them. For now though, Samsung does not have it listed as a "known" issue since there haven't been enough reports on this bug.

The phone stops make and receive calls

I tried to search for the same problem through XDA but found nothing.
The phone is GT-I9300, Android 4.0.4, firmware I9300XXLH1. After some time after reboot the phone stops make and receive calls. The signal in statusbar is full and in notification menu I can see the name of my mobile operator. First I thought that something is wrong with my SIM-card. But after every reboot, as I already mentioned, for some time there're no problems.
Besides even after calls become unavailable, 3G and Edge are working fine.
May be someone can suggest any solution?

Weird. Doesn't sound like it's actually losing signal, just loss of functionality heh. As you even noticed you have signal and the radio is still functioning, at least for data, just not for voice.
I know it's a pain but I would start by either factory defaulting the stock ROM and see if it persists or if you want try a custom ROM and make sure to do a full wipe first.
The ****ty part is loss of data. If you have CWM installed then maybe make a nandroid first so you can revert back if it's no different

So i have 2 sims of one mobile op. The factory one and cut one. I began to think that the problem is with the sim card. So I tried both and nothing changed.
So may be there is any problem with micro-sim slot in the phone? May be the hardware problem. But if there is any hardware problem, why does the phone after airplane mode or reboot register in the network successfuly.
Besides when I call someone (while the network is still available) no matter how long the conversation is - the phone is available all the time.

Hey, just wondering did you manage to fix this problem?
My S3 is doing the same thing, only 2 weeks of having the phone and it started doing it today. I got full signal but it says I can only make emergency phone calls. Done the whole battery in & out, reset factory settings, and still nothing. I thought it may be the software update as I am yet to update but I'm unable to since I can't have data connectivity, I was going to use a friends' Wi-Fi to download the new firmware but it sounds like that doesn't help either?

[Q] WiFi Help

Well after hours of searching i cannot find the solution to my problem...any help would be appreciated. please read series of events below.
- Got my Note 2 on Verizon in Jan
- Following week dropped phone and cracked screen. replaced glass and digitizer with OEM part
- Loved my phone and then the 4.1.2 update released.. battery life went down the drain and WiFi is a mess
- Phone won't connect to Wifi but if i get close to my router at home it will connect but if i go in the other room it loses connection. Same thing happens in other Wifi locations. Sometimes it will recognize the network and then say "saved,secured", but still doesn't connect. or sometimes it will attempt to connect and then i will get authentication error occurred.
- Thought it was the update so unlocked/rooted my device...Started with Jelly Beans, problem still present. Tried Cm10, same issue.
I am currently rooted running CM10 4.2.2 baseband version I605VRAMC3
I can't seem to figure this out. Is it the radio? software? Thoughts?

Sounds like when you took your phone apart you did not either connect the cables for the antenna tightly, which you should see degraded call and 4g lte signal also. Or the antenna is damaged. On the other hand. I have heard of dirty or damaged sims causing this problem. Take a pencil eraser and clean off the gold by lightly wiping with the eraser in one direction. Or get a new sim. All this of course is dependent on you running a rom that does not have WiFi issues to start with.
Could it be the baseband? Is there a way to go back to the radio before the 4.1.2...this all started after the update.

Can i get you to point me in the right direction? all i have found is how to unlock the device when you are on the older version.
Can i just flash the old radio and stay unlocked/rooted? does anyone have a direct download link to older radio VRALL4?
Sorry new to the site, have been searching but can't find what i am looking for.
shangrila500 already pointed out the radios are located in development section look for radiosmodemsbaseband thread (that section only has 4 pages its in there). You can flash the radios without affecting your root status. do a nandroid backup before just to be safe if you like. wipe 2x cache and flash. You can test all 3 one right after another. Do a lot of reading to get your weight up by looking for sticked how to's and the like-it will help. Also if you did take your phone apart consider dragonstalkers post. The only way to problem solve is come at it from all angles.
