Hi.
I was wondering if anyone can help me out.
Im currently in Albania using Vodafone sim card. My signal sucks most of the time I have no signal its comes once in a while for couple minutes maybe and then leaves again.
When I put the sim card in my cousins S3 (which his s3 is from here) it works fine, full bars 3G
So its leading me to believe its my notes fault.
My APN settings are good because when the signal comes for that short time my phones data and voice work as they should

I‘ve got an Atrix 4G a few days ago. but have a serious problem now.
i have bought the unlock code and the code was accepted.
after i insert an GSM card,the signal status bar shows a big forbidden sign just like "NO PARKING".it works like a MP4 right now,cannot make any calls.
i have changed for more than 5 GSM cards.but still no signal.
anyone who knows what should i do now? thanks!
Have you tried manually searching for an operator and logging into its network under mobile network settings? (you can switch back to automatic afterwards).
There could be a frequency mismatch, but on the one hand this bad by is quadband gsm and triband 3g, and on the other hand that woul dbe something you checked before you bought.. right?
Where do you live?
I have a similar problem. My reception goes on and off a lot and sometimes a reboot works, sometimes it doesn't. I have real bad reception at places where my old phone (an x10mini) had very good reception. The wierd thing is that when I have reception it's 4-5 bars, and then it drops to 0, I live in Sweden and have Tele2 as my carrier.
Qatar - Same issue
Hi all,
I'm having the same issue with my phone... no radio signal at all. My friend has an HTC android phone that has the same hardware antenna wise and band frequencies as the Atrix and his works fine... and my friend has an Atrix here unlocked and it works too...
Any thoughts?
I'm having the same problem... It worked yesterday when i unlocked... Since today, It can't find my carrier network... I hope it's not broken!!!
i had the same probleme weeks ago i reset all and i stay always in automatic research

I performed a Hard Reset... Still no lucky...
I searched for Networks. Then I tried that carrier's SIM, and it worked...
Wonder why mine isn't working on edge nor gsm as yesterday...
Just figured out that my phone is not working with edge, gsm... only with 3G...
The phone is Quadband... So... Wasn't it supposed to work with all frequencies??
i have spotty 3g in my area, so my phone is switching between EDGE and 3g allot. for what ever reason, it completely looses signal to switch over. i have had many cell/smart phones and all the other ones switch over without loosing signal. it is really getting annoying, but i love my atrix. what is the issue? i STILL have not found a way to disable 3g and just use EDGE...4636 does not stay.
the other thing i have not called and switched my plan to the 4g plan yet, i have a BB also and i am still on a BB data plan. i DO get h+ on my phone, so by getting the 4g plan, will this stop this signal loss from happening? as i said, i could care if i had 3g, im fine with EDGE since im on wifi.
any help/advice would be greatly appreciated..
thanks!
There is no 4g plan since its not 4g. Its still a 3g network so if u have a 3g plan then you are on the fastest that att has to offer. Their 4g claims are a farce

try a new sim card if your card is over 6months old. when i select gms only in that service menu it disconnects from the network for a few seconds then locks on edge and stays on edge
I have this same problem too on a regular 3g data plan so I don't think it's bb related. it bothers the crap out of me

Really....humming....I am using my micro sim from my iPhone with the sim adapter....maybe a trip to AT&T for a new sim is in order
My iPhone 3GS had this problem, my Atrix does too, but it's not nearly as bad about it.
So almost after 3 weeks of getting the TS I decided to put in my AT&T SIM. I was reluctant to use that tiny bastard screw driver but I did it anyways. I have noticed that the network signal strength of my watch is almost non-existant. It will get cellphone signal at only certain place. With the same sim card on my phone (Nexus 5), I get good cell reception.
How are others doing in this department? How's the cellphone signal? Is there anything I can do to improve the mobile network signal. Currently I am on stock with Loki's security patch.
I am not sure if this is a hardware issue or software issue. I remember someone opening the TS and checking the antenna. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Some information on my TS -
North American 1/8
Stock ROM with Loki's patch.
Ok here is my observation:
I could not get signal inside my office, home and costco
I did get signal once I get out of my office - full signal bars with H+. I made a short trip from office to costco and home and back to office. It was able to get signals when I was driving but in some areas where I used to get 2-3 bars in my phone, TS did not pick at any signal at all. So mobile network signal is working but it is pretty weak compared to my phone.
May be it needs some tune up
i have the same problem,the signal is low and TS really has a hard time to find one,if its lost
can we do something about this ?
I opened mine just to have a look and found one of the connectors lose, took a bit of fiddling to get it back on but my network signal seems as good as my note3.
I don't know why, but after installing this app.https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.misonicon.signalbooster3g4g
The signal works perfectly, I didn't believe in this apps but now I don't know what to say
At least it works
Mobile frequency fluctuates on my end too, made sure APN settings are listed exactly like they say here on the forums, maybe I should change to another GSM 3G SIM card?
I'm traveling around South America with my phone and haven't had issues since I bought it in May. But last week in the Amazon of Brazil, I started having connection trouble. First I got signal but with an x showing that I had no data... Mind you I was on a boat through the jungle and only had reception at ports so I paid close attention to getting some internet. The first few ports I still had LTE working, but later I got H+ with a little x in the lower right corner... Sometimes I would get internet for a few seconds by switching data off and on again or going into airplane mode for a second.
Now when I arrived at my final port I had zero reception while others were calling already, crossing the border from Brazil into Colombia I switched sims and still had no reception in the middle of this small city. When I arrived in the big city of Bogotá I realized I had an issue. Buying a new sim didn't fix it so it must be my phone.
My sim card is sort of recognised but my phone keeps showing Emergency Calls Only. Only my Dutch sim card shows reception and roaming, I bought the phone online so there is no reason it should prefer my Dutch sim after working in Colombia for 3 months.
Can anyone help me finding a way to solve this?
Hi,
I have Asus zenfone max pro m2 phone with airtel sim. At my home, I get almost zero connectivity (both voice and data), all the time. It works perfectly fine in other places, but, I think it might not still be the best though, I do see some minor drops in connectivity every now and then, in other places too.
I placed the sim in another phone(redmi note 4g) at my home. It gets good voice and data connectivity (4g with decent speed). So I think the problem might not be with the sim. It should either be with the phone or something to do with airtel's cell towers.
I have attached the screenshots of phone information in both the cases (my phone with no connection and redmi note 4g which has good connection)
I think the reason might be either the phone has a bad radio/modem hardware or software. Or there might be problems with connecting to some cell towers. I think there are more than one cell tower nearby and somehow my phone is ending up not being connected to either(something to do with cell tower handoff!?). I sometimes see the phone getting connected to 4g/edge, but quickly drops. I do have JIO sim and it works fine. I have tried several things, both basic(switching sim cards, placing only one sim card, reset network, reboot etc etc.) and advanced(trying out different roms, locking bands with network signal guru), but no luck, anyone facing similar problem or has any solution? If its some kinda software problem, I can try flashing some software(kernel/modem?), I have my phone rooted.
Thanks in advance
