Why android's network signals are wearker than the old phones signal I see alot of times when is say "emergency calls only" while the old phone has a full strength signal [in the same place at the same time] even if a use a boost it doesn't help too much?

Some custom ROM's make signal lower. Old phone ftw.

When I exchange to the one s, I'm obviously restoring back to stock via Odin but there is no way of resetting flash count. Would this cause an issue with t-mobile? This phone has way too many connection issues and the one s when I had it for a few days did awesome, unfortunately I jumped on the band wagon.

try return it and see...i have not have troulbe with connection, must be that specific phone or your area
Definitely not my area. Had the one s for a few days and reception was insanely strong. Bought the phone from customer care over the phone.

Would a specific Rom cause issues? I just flashed back to stock and it seems more stable.

are you using tmobile? i'm using the redrum rom with mirf kernel, working fine for me.
kernel and modem is what change the signal strength...i reccomend u try it for a couple day, HTC is cheap quality...they're out of taiwan sooo i would not trust anything from china.
Samsung is built in China

Thanks for the help. But with a device that cost this much we shouldn't have to deal with things like this

Sacrifice signal strength for better hardware, its how it works. Get the crappiest flip phone in the world and it will have good signal strength if that's all you care about in a phone.
They're not going to check the counter. I can assure you.
How is gsm3 better hardware it's almost identical to the one s minus the screen and sd card and removable battery. I'm not bashing, I have the gs3 in my hands.

What's the actual question?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Those are the access point names and each one has settings to connect to data and voice networks, depending on what sim card is in the phone.
It looks like you have a 4G at&t sim card and have the LTE access point selected, which is correct.
Thanks guys is all I need to know

Sure : you have a full signal on both WiFi and cell with 88 percent power on your battery. Its also a little after 3 in the evening if I remember correctly just kidding

Galaxy S2 has it`s own Hotspot.Go to Setting->Under Wireless & Networks go to More..->Tethering & Portable Hotspot.You just have to enable it,and set it up.You can even give a password for it.

Sent from my HTCEVOV4G using xda app-developers app
I had a very weird problem!
After 3 months without any bug on my S3 I started to have very long GPS fix time (about 15 minutes) and some times non fixing issue...
I Tryed everything since change rom, give some punches, replace the battery, change kernels, etc...
Suddenly and by chance I figured out that the new case a friend gave to me was blocking the signal!!
What the hell!!!!
I have been using many kind of cases including thick rubber one and only this innocent and thin one caused it!!!
Hope it can help someone.

Nastiest aspect is, that when using the phone now against your head listening.
The radio waves are directed towards your head trying to escape!
This should be a health issue too. More of a reason to use the headset now

This is old one. As I remember, the tests were performed at lower signal.

I think the Data speed is more related to ratio.
Does anyone test the data speed with different fareware/ratio?
