[Q] Bad reception after Jelly Bean update ? - HTC Desire X

After updating to Jelly Bean I noticed that I have Bad signal reception.
Sometimes my desire X even looses al the signal and I can't call anymore only to emergency numbers,
If I put my simcard in another (older) phone on the same spot/place I have good Signal reception that's the weird thing so the problem definitely has something to do with the desire x...
Before the update the phone was working normally any suggestions ??
It's verry annoying I want to go back to the old ICS

Obvious question, have you done factory reset after JB update?

What are the instructions that come with the down load. Does it tell you to do a factory reset after you downloaded, or does it do it automatically as part of the download procedure.?

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

Have you cut your sim card or is it an original micro sim? Of you have cut it that's your culprit.

Hmm, that is messed up.
Maybe try a different modem?
It sounds like a software bug but to carry across a fresh install.... That's not right....
What ROM are you trying? Did it happen on any other one? Or just happens with this new ROM?

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][U] Random reboots

My Xperia U keeps restarting and freezing. It's happened 4 times now.
The first and third times I was typing (Once on Kik, once on Whatsapp) and the whole phone just froze, i had to pull the battery. The second time it just randomly restarted and the forth time happened about half an hour ago, I picked my phone up and it said the simcard had been removed and turned itself off, I couldn't get it to turn back on so I pulled the battery and turned it back on and it still said there was no sim card inserted, so I removed the simcard and put it back in so it restarted itself and it's working ok again now.
The phone is only about a month old. Anyone else had this problem or any ideas how to fix it?
It's running GB if that's important.
This shouldn't happen, at least not on GB. Have you tried a factory reset? Got root?

No didn't see the point of rooting it and no, if I could be bothered to set everything up again after a factory reset i would have installed ICS. lol
Maybe theres a lot of apps running in the bg. Without root without reset only possible way is to remove bloats that you can. Also try a Ram manager app.
Tapatalked !
Wouldn't they show up in running services?
Not all of them
Tapatalked !
Is there any way I can back everything up before doing a factory reset?
You can save the apks using appmonster but then the app data will be lost.
Tapatalked !
So do you think flashing ICS would help? and is it stable enough? I heard a lot of bad things.
And thanks whoever changed my title to something that only describes half my problem =/
I've got the Indian version of ICS and am pretty much happy with it. The Australian version was a nightmare.
Tapatalked !
I was thinking about that french version. Is the Indian version I or A?
And what's wrong with it?
Sent from my ST25i using xda app-developers app
Indian version is i, so is the French version. The a version lagged like hell

So should all i's be as good as each other?

[Q] Wifi keeps dropping!!!

Hiya all,
I recently (yesterday) updated my S3 to Jelly Bean via Kies. I'm in UK so we kinda got it late.
Since then however, the Wifi is being a right *****. It keeps dropping and then few seconds go by, reconnects, then a minute goes, then repeats the cycle of hell! I've made sure the power saving mode for Wifi is off by dialling #*0011*.
WTF do I do?
Thanks.
Backup data and factory reset .
jje
Factory reset does not help here. I wipe as a matter of updating the OS (old Windows tech habits) and in-fact it has gotten worse recently. I'd not noticed any problem in the first week but now I see it reconnecting frequently while in use. Often pick it up from the desk to see it wasting my cell data.
It seems to be a known issue, that helps, but not a lot of info so I'll bump this with a reply. Anyone know any more yet? Totally stock system here.
Hi Folks

I also have this problem after upgrading to Jelly Bean. It completely drops for no apparent reason even though it's still says connected and signal is good. I then need to turn the WiFi off then back on to get it working again. I need help getting this problem fixed as soon as possible or I will end up downgrading back to ICS.

Back to the topic, I have the same prob, works after diconnecting/reconnecting, annoying but u get use to it & not that big of a deal IMO, but granted that considering the device's price one shouldn't have to fiddle with it to get that kind of basic option to fully function.

Please read my post >>here
This is a carrier issue that you are experiencing. It can be corrected relatively easy.
If you do not have root access, then root with CF-Root and perform the said modifications and then Un-Root your phone. Simple

[Q] Wooow really!!! I should't have upgraded!!! I need help!

Ok, my phone was working great but as so as a did the upgrade to Lollipop. Everything is running smooth in the upgrade but the sms. It works sometimes, and sometimes it dont. I have tried the same settings that I have been using before the upgrade. My phone is not rooted and my carrier is Simple Mobile. Do anyone know how to fix this sms problem?

It seems to be happening a lot with the update.. Pretty sure this is the wrong subforum, but if a factory reset doesn't work, you most likely have to wait for another update, but this will take away any root or ROMs or downgrading......

So is there a chance for me to downgrade? I used the Samsung Kies 3 to do the update. Sorry if its in the wrong subforum.

No downgrade whatsoever...
Having the same problem. My S4 is a verizon with a t-mobile sim. was working great with kit kat but now with lollipop im having the same problem. I changed all my APN settings as well as lock into the t-mobile provider option with no luck. have 4G internet, I can recieve texts but can not send them out. Prior to the update my network logo was H,H+ and E, now the network shows that sometimes and sometimes 4g/3g.

[Q] Something is wrong with my Xperia Z Ultra and I'm worried it might get worse

I'm not really sure what's wrong with my phone. Anyone? This just started happening recently and I'm worried it might get worse.
First of all, did you make a hard reset after upgrading to lollipop? Did you had that problem on kitkat?

I just upgraded to Lollipop recently, and I remember I already had this problem in Kitkat, shortly before I upgraded to Lollipop. I did a factory reset when I upgraded to Lollipop but it's still there. So I'm worried that this could be a hardware problem.

Well, I had the same problem (which occured very rarely but still) on lollipop. Never had this on kitkat so this might be a hardware problem. Do you experience this on phone just after factory reset? With phone being pretty much fresh ?

Yes I still experienced after factory reset. Do you think my phone will die anytime soon?
It's difficult to predict actually. Do you still have a warranty for your Z Ultra? If you do, you could return it for repairs. If you don't I woudn't worry about it.
Try to flash your phone with flashtool, but backup ur data in case it doesnt cure your problem
Tell me if that helps.
