[Q] Mobile Network Help - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All
I just installed a custom ROM from xda. The rom itself is completely good, smooth, and fast. The only problem that I have is probably regarding the mobile network. When I want to download an apps from google play, it took soo long. For example, it took 45 mins to download a whatsapp.
When I tried to browse, the page open very quick. So i thought, hmm maybe google play have some problem. I tried to download my trading software from my broker website, but it turn out I cant download at all. It will go quick for the first 10 seconds, and the download cant be completed.
By the way, I use ultima rom. Anybody have ever encounter this problem before? Did i make a mistake when I tried to install the rom? Did I installed the wrong modem or kernell? Or maybe my mobile network is suck currently?
Thank you very much for your help,
Regards.

I have searched but the solution posted did not work for me.

Freeze on start-up after installing a app.

Hi, I apologise if I posted this in the wrong section I wern't sure,
My Galaxy S Wifi 5.0 keeps freezing on start-up, It was working fine until I installed a app called, Go Launcher, once it installed, it was working fine until my device restarted after that, it just freezes after like 1 minute as soon as it comes on, I barely have enough time to put in the start code to unlock the device..
I can't remember what firmware it has, It was a custom one I think of this forum, all I know after I put it on it put a picture of a black tree on the main screen, not sure if that helps sorry..
It is rooted too.
I'm looking for some advice on what I can do to fix this.. I don't want to completly format I have some pictures I kind of don't want to lose.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Try uninstalling it via the Google Play store, and then download another Launcher.

Thanks for replying, but I just fixed it, I managed to get into recovery mode and do a wipe data from there, it didn't delete none of my pictures but everything else and fixed my problem.

You have to install the Google Apps as a separate install when dealing with most non stock roms. Surely the guide you were looking at mentioned that...? Weird that you are having issues with Sms as it's rare roms have that trouble. Which messaging app are you using? Your contacts aren't there because you wiped your phone, installed a new operating system, and didn't install the Google apps to resync your account. I'm confused on why you're surprised by that... Kies doesn't work on non stock roms and is a much inferior tool vs Odin. Also, didn't you do a nandroid backup before installing Slim? If so, you could just restore that and you would be back to the previous version in like 10 minutes. If you didn't...well, you weren't looking at the right guides then. I think Slim is 10x better than stock, personally but depending on the phone and version, there can be some minor issues.
I think that Whatsapp doesn't recognize your phone because of the custom DPI. If you set that to stock value, it should work.

Help - Connection problem after upgrading Android 8.0 - Samsung galaxy s7 edge

Hello everyone. I have a samsung galaxy s7 edge (SM G935F) and i recently received the android 8.0.0 from samsung. Downloaded and installed directly via the cellphone.
But after updating i am getting this internet/connection drop issues a lot.
Now a lot of times when im connected in wifi or using the 4g mobile internet, im getting a lot of internet lag/drops. Example: at whatsapp, when i sens a message, the clock appears and only after a little rhe time the message is send.
Example 2: at facebook, somerimes it lags and takes too long to load the content (same happening in instagram). Or at clash of clans, it is showing that symbol of internet issue.
Besides those internet bugs/lags, the android 8.0.0 is ok.
I already did a factory reset yesterday via the phone, and saved the files with smart switch. But the problem persists. I also checked and my wifi internet and my mobile internet are ok.
Does anyone knows how to fix this issue? Is there a newer version of the ROM, maybe? Or if not, is ir possible to downgrade to android 7 again (really wouldnt like this option but....)?
If anyone could help that would be great. But for the record:im really newbie at android stuffs....if you can help, please could you explain step by step?
Thanks everyone

I have the same phone but in my region the OTA 8.0 upgrade didn't arrive yet so I took a french official 8.0 for SM-G935F and installed it. After about one week I can tell it works like a charm and even better than before with the Marshmallow firmware. I don't see a solution with your specific connection problem but I can try to find and bring you the OS that I downloaded and used if you want.

NO, i can't seem to remember where i downloaded the firmware from, but I am sure it wasn't from Sammobile because it take ages to download. But I still have it on my laptop so I'm uploading the .rar on mediafire.
All you have to do:
Get Odin
Get the ROM (extract it separately, you should see the AP, BL, CP, CSC components)
Cause I am a new user on the forum it doesn't allow me to post external links so let's get around that:
type in w w w. mediafire . com /file / tx3676bj71vz17f/G935FXXU2ERD5_G935FOXA2ERD5_BTU.zip (copy paste and remove all the spaces)
Activate USB debugging (google that, you can get it in 30 secs)
press and hold power+home_button+volum_down then press volume_up when it asks you to confirm that you know what you're doing.
Open Odin, you should see that your phone is recognized (in the top left rectangle it shows COM something.
Add the AP, BL, CP and CSC from the folder to Odin by pressing the specific buttons and then selecting them, wait between them if necessary, it will tell you.
Make sure re partition is not ticked in the options tab.
after everytihng is ready, click start and wait some time.
When it is done you should see PASS in green and your phone restarting.\
From there you just have to configure your new OS. Bare in mind that you should know the google acc and password that you had on the phone before, else it will get FRP locked.
Hope this helps, If you have any questions feel free to ask.

HI Just putting this here hoping to get a forum started. I have 2 of these. Both seem to be working fine. I have ATT and I did enable the hotspot but it doesn't have internet, I don't have a tethering plan. I just assumed they locked out the function to turn hotspots on or off when you don't have a plan.
