So I got ahold of a galaxy nexus and within ten minutes of signing into my google account using the setup app my WiFi drops on the nexus..i have seen this behavior before so I diddnt think too much of it...I still retain my ip address and connection but WiFi on the nexus just will not receive any packages the router dishes out...so I pick up my Amaze and it starts doing the same thing!!! I've had my amaze for about 4 months and I've never had this problem never...until I bought home the galaxy nexus...I have factory reset using 4ext and still the bug persists...I even changed Roms and still no fix...I'm in super sense now and the only way to recueve any wifi package us to turn off WiFi then turn it back on...but that only works for about ten minutes then its back to empty WiFi...but I still keep my connection and up address...I'm thinking the bug jumped from my gnexus to my router then to my amaze...I have a brother who has an iPhone connected and his Phone is fine...that let's me know its not my router...and help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated as I do not have a pc to restore ruu (relock bootloader) or another phone to connect to WiFi with...the battery in ny gnexys has been pulled and won't go back in any time soon...Anyone interested in buyingva galaxy nexus? 70$ lol clean Verizon ESN...

Can anybody tell me why sometimes when trying to connect to the web or Facebook or anything that uses the internet, why sometimes the 4g symbol just stays there with no transmission lines being sent and receiving? I know when trying to connect the orange lines go in and out of 4g. I will be in the same spot with my fiance. She has an IPhone 4s with Att. I hit the Facebook and or the web at the same time on her phone. Hers connects right away. Mine will just sit there and load and load. Nothing being transmitted. Then after about 30 secs it connects. I don't understand. At times it will work and other times. It seems to be getting worse. I called at&t and they are going to send me a replacement phone not through insurance. But from samsung. Does anybody else experiencing problems like this before. I will have to sit there and wait for my phone to connect while my fiance is already surfing. This will happen in different spots. But whenever mind is not connect my fiance's iphone 4 s connect with no problem. this is my second Note doing the same thing. Is this how its supposed to work?
By the way I have already done hard reset clear cache and everything possible

You on tmo or att? Happens to me with tmo but I assume just cause I'm using a hacked radio.

Hey guys, (Did extensive search before posting this)
Whenever I get a MMS the messages show a download button but will not download. I have tried turning wifi on and off, turning mobile data on and off, rebooting, using stock app and Go SMS and nothing is working. I looked in APN settings but do not know if they are right or not.
The issue just started recently, I have had the phone about a week and they seemed to work at first.
Please help,
This is driving me crazy and is frankly unacceptable in 2012. I saw some threads about old Galaxys having this issue.
You have to be on mobile data without wifi for them to download.

Thanks for the reply, but I have tried turning wi fi off, which in turn reverts to mobile data and still no success. Could it be that I also use a micro cell? My carrier service is literally the worst possible at my house without the micro cell. This is quite unfortunate if so.
I think wifi has to be off when it is initially coming through and yes, a micro cell will do it. Is it a voice micro cell or data?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Its a voice micro cell, but it also transmits a 3G signal. Not sure of the speed since I always use wi fi.
This is boggling my mind. Are you telling me that it is not possible to recieve a freaking MMS message created in 1982 (sarcastic) on a 2012 LTE device if I am in a wifi network. WTH. That is crazy to me.
So are these images gone or do I need to turn off wifi and turn off the micro cell to download?
Thanks for your help btw.
So I disconnected wifi and disconnected my microcell and clicked download on Go SMS and nothing, error message. Pulled up the stock SMS app and clicked download and after a half minute or so the picture appears. The picture then also shows in Go SMS.
I guess the solution is no MMS while at home which is a bit frustrating coming from another device/platform where this problem would not occur.
Thanks again.
I have the international GS3 on AT&T. My phone automatically downloads MMS if only mobile data is on or both wifi & mobile data are on. I believe it is your microcell causing your disruption OP.
Sorry, my international S3 also only downloads MMS if only mobile data is on.. I have yet to see it auto download when Wi-Fi was on. I would say it could be the microcell in this case though.

It isn't just you. I had the same issue with my GSII. It would randomly appear and disappear. Have the person resend it.

Not true. I am on WiFi 90% of the time and I still get MMS
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
When mms comes in the WiFi should temporarily shut off and the radio picks up 3 or 4g in order to download it. U honestly won't notice any seperation. If u honestly can't receive them, check your apn settings
Sent from my vivow using Tapatalk 2
You are getting mms when you are away from your home/microcell, correct?
hmm, i just noticed that mine has been doing this lately too. MMS won't download unless I turn off wi-fi. I'm on t-mobile
So, I'm sitting in a hotel that has great free wifi (15mbps down/up, Marriott) and my GS3 isn't picking up the signal at all. My iPad, laptop, and my wife's iPhone are connected with full bars (or bends, what have you), but nada for my GS3 wonderphone. Any tips?
I've restarted it twice, toggled the switch, and scanned manually. Not sure what else to do. :banghead:

There is a known issue with Wifi. It is odd that it won't connect at all. I'd go get a replacement. There is also a thread regarding the issue.
Is there any kind of fix yet?
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app
It Works ok if im less than 5 meters away from server. But anything over that and its unusable. I work about 10 meters from the server. And I get at least 2 - 3 bars of signal out of 4. And I can't even post a comment on here. The speed is very fast for about 30 seconds and then ridiculously slow. It also struggles to connect. Tries about 3 or 4 times before it connects. I'm running cm10 on s3 but have this problem on stock, omega and checkrom. I had simular problems with the s2 aswell but not s1. I don't want to use wifi kill as its my work and it might not solve the problem. Is this the s3 working on networks with multiple apns? Is there a code I can call to turn off power saving ?? Can't force to 5ghz either.
Some advice would be massively helpful. I am getting very frustrated.
Thanks in advanced

I believe the problem lies in network or in the wifi router. Maybe it's overloaded, try on-off cycling the router and see if it works then?
I kinda doubt that the issue is in the phone
I've fixed it now mate. Well chuffed. Don't know what it was really. But the method I used in above thread worked. It all started when I first rooted and flashed omega. Cm9 got rid of the authentication error (so it seems Sammy is at fault there) as for the WiFi range of about 3 meters and no connectivity after that distance. I'm not sure. Perhaps a problem deep in the settings I could not find. But completely wiping all settings worked. Not ideal. But confirmed working all day at work. So maybe a omega fault I don't know. Jus happy to have fixed it

It can be many problems! Maybe the ROM that you are runing has poor Wi-Fi support or maybe the phone is just "getting old" or maybe its the Wi-Fi set that sends you the signal!
I got a s3 which is not old but I've fixed it now. Thanks

Hey guys, I'm getting an error code 65535 class 3 whenever I try to text, and a radio failed when I try to place a call. I'm running sense 5 (hatka) and I already confirmed that it's not the rom. Please help, I'm on a trip in new York so I really need this (this all randomly happened so I don't think I did this)

Make sure your on the right build (I.e gsm, global, etc.)

Yeah, I'm using the correct version. I checked and everything. Odd thing is that yesterday it was working just fine. I woke up this morning and my signal would drop in and out like crazy and I would go for about 3 minutes without signal before I'd get a bar (usually i have 3 to 5)
Here are some pictures (not sure if it would help or not)
(also I'm in New York on a trip so no laptop)

Either bad SIM (my first guess) or signal issues in the area (unlikely) hit up a store and swap out your SIM.

Re: Texting error
Hmm, I took out my sim and put it back in and it gave me full bars, I can get texts (rarely), and I can get very little Internet when connected (not wifi) I don't want to take my phone to Verizon because I'm running a custom rom and they'll see it and probably want to make me pay for a new one.

don't go by the bars....go by the dbm...whats that showing?
Re: Texting error
I'd run an RUU and see what it does, don't sweat the bars and if that doesn't fix it just give it a day or two. You can always run the RUU can call verizon and have them send you another SIM card.

According to both Verizon and HTC, there was a known issue with the phone software and not being able to read the SIM card. It happened to mine about ten times every week until an update was released to supposedly fix it in February. I still get the error from time to time, but far less than I did previously. If you've rooted and flashed a ROM prior to February, I would suggest making a backup and restoring the phone back to stock. Once you've done this, do the update to the new firmware and then reroot and restore from your backup. This should, I think, fix most SIM issues.
