[Q] Rogers call reciever issues[Solved] - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

Update: Looks like noise suppression was an issue, turned it off and all seems well. Also doesn't help that my friend has a Japanese phone that has crap signal with Rogers.
I bought my phone from Best Buy as the Rogers stock was for the reservations list, havent made a lot of calls, but some people are saying that I seem to fade in and out. Anyone else experiencing this or should I go for an exchange?

My phone has no reception!

Hi guys. For some reason my phone keeps losing its reception, and no calls are being made. It keeps saying call ended... Its not my sim card cuz it works fine with my other phone, so it has to do with this phone. Any one experienced this or can help?
It just randomly started

any changes made recently? new FW, new apps, new widgets that control 2g/3g?
ive not had any similar problems, but just tryin to give a few suggestions
good luck!
Try the soft reset or repair via SEUS.
Mine started having Wi-Fi issues today (it wouldn't connect to the wireless network, with or without encription).
Did the soft reset, now it's working.
Weird bugs, I guess
You're holding it wrong... Also try wrapping some gaffer tape around the outside edge. Sorry they're no longer giving away free bumper cases...
Edit:
...Sorry, I thought this was the iPhone 4 forum.

I have had the same issue intermittently since I got the phone. Tried a restore and a newer fw. Didn't help, I'm waiting a bit longer and sending it off for warranty. A few of my friends have x10s also and haven't had this problem...

People can't hear me incoming/outgoing calls occasional glitch

Anyone else have this issue.
I have a problem when people call or when I call them. It only happens sometimes, but I can hear them and they can't hear me. I thought maybe it had something to do with using google maps/gps or a problem with google voice. It happens on my normal # and my google voice #.
Anyone else have this problem. I am rooted, had stock, stock debloated, and now Virus ROM, and it has happened on all 3. Should I go back to stock and go request a new phone from verizon?
I would, just for the fact that you will get a NEW phone, not a like-new phone. You know you can root it and get everything back, might as well get a brand new phone while you can.
Check their carrier. I have always had this when people with ATT call me on Verizon. I'm not sure which carrier as at fault .. but I haven't had this issue with anyone that didn't have ATT. And my friends sub ATT have had this issue only with Verizon. Seems weird, but I've noticed this happening to a large group of my friends ... And it just started to happen recently. Happened on my dinc and its still happening on my thunderbolt

[Q] call quality after rooting

Hi!
I just rooted my SGS3 today and I noticed that some friends of mine had some problems hearing me during the call. I made some other phone calls and my friends confirmed the problem.I did the phone calls under a good network coverage. I'm new to android and I wanted to ask if someone else had the same problem or if there is a solution for it.
Thanks,
No not at all i highly doubt rooting your phone assuming everything was done correctly could have any impact in call quality, mine is fine.
I noticed my call quality is crap today. Not sure when it started, but it's bad. I'm testing by leaving myself voicemails on my work number. I'm starting from a seated position and the call was clear enough, but as soon as I start walking around it gets very badly garbled to where you can't make out what was said. I put the sim back in the galaxy nexus and quality was fine, so I don't think it's the network, also I have full bars.
Is it possible something could be causing interference to the S3 and not the Gnex?
Yes I am rooted, and yes I'm pretty sure that has nothing to do with it.
Was data on at the time? If so, disable and test.
Try another modem or firmware with different modem.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S5 losing network connectivity

My wife and I both have brand new Galaxy S5s, and we both intermittently experience this problem. One of us will send a text message to the other, the text will show as being sent, but the other person doesn't receive it. If the person set to receive the message reboots their phone, the message comes through (as well as any other "pending" messages), and normal phone use continues for a few days until this issue returns. Rebooting seems to always fix the issue temporarily.
This of course is not limited to just communication between our phones, but I was using that as an example. Often times, I'll reboot my phone, and realize I have 3 new text messages, and 2 voicemails from yesterday. Very frustrating.
Phone calls are also affected. When these symptoms are present, phone calls cannot be placed or received until the phone is rebooted. Incoming calls go directly to voicemail.
The worst part of it is, there is no easy way to tell our phones are not connected to the network. The reception status shows good connectivity. Most of the time we're connected to wifi, so email and browsing the internet still work.
I'm just wondering if other people are experiencing this, or have any suggestions of some things we can try. Thanks for the help.

Well, that was very timely. I'm glad they released a fix the same day I decided to ask for help. I appreciate the link, and I'll install it and see how it works out. Cheers.
The update killed a lot of people's data speeds. I made a ticket with t-mobile techs. I suggest anyone else with bad data speeds after the new update do the same.

Yep. Mine is down to 1 now. I have several tickets already open with them. This phone has been nothing but trouble.
I had the same issue. went to the T-Mobile store and they told me it was a problem with the isis sim card. They replaced it with a non isis sim and all is good now.

I'm still having problems with this... I'm rooted. If I go to T-Mobile will they just replace the SIM or will they be checking my phone?

From what I know T-Mobile doesn't care if your phone is rooted because you're not doing any warranty service. If that was the case they will probably tell you that its voided.. I have seen a few that root their own phones at their job so I doubt it'll be a problem. But I guess every T-Mobile store isn't the same..

Yes this is the exact problem I had with last GS5. Tmobile replaced it and I still have this problem with the new GS5. The tried to tell me it was just how the old GS5 settings were set. They had me do Factory reset many times, it never helped. Now with the replacement GS5 the exact same problem. Like you everything looks great on the display. I would just get calls on my home line wanting to know why I never answer my mobile phone. The only thing that helps me is a restart but it is only temporary. Do you know if they have released a fix for this problem?

Since upgrading the latest firmware, we have not experienced the problems again. We've been having good service since then. I would definitely suggest you get the latest firmware.
guys, i have the latest firmware and the same problem... any solution or fix?

The only thing it seems the tmobile employees know how to do is a factory reset .. That is their solution for about everything . Like the other guy said they dont handle warranty . That is for your samsung warranty when knox is tripped . If you have handset protection nothing voids it from what i have seen . I think tmobile would rather replace a rooted phone than one with a cracked screen .

If you put that modem together can you link me it ? Could come in handy in the future. Thanks
I notice the problem occurs when switching to lte from 4 auto mode. Seems lte is giving these problems. Switch to wcdma only mode and the problem will be gone. No lte tho... I will update to latest fw and see if it solves my problem

Constant missed calls on G965U - very frustrating...help

Hello
My wife's T-Mobile S9+ continues to have missed calls. She'll return to her desk and see a voicemail notification without the phone having rung. Since she uses it for work, it's quite frustrating.
I recently replaced the Simple Mobile sim card as a precaution.
What can I try or test?
I never have had that issue with this phone yet.. But when at home, call her phone maybe a dozen times to see what happens.. I'm willing to bet it is not the phone, but a network issue.. I have ran into this same issue, with other phones, that I use on the Sprint network.
I have the issue on cricket a lot at my house. I do I bet it's a network issue.
I'd like to think that, but my phone, also on Simple Mobile, gets all calls - real, scams, surveys, the major, etc
