Weird network problem - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I don't know what causes this problem but my brother's i9100 lost signal sometimes BUT nothing like "not registered to network" it shows full signals, it can send sms or it can use mobile data but can't get calls. I know it's not hardware related bacause when he reboot it, it fixes itself. Also this problem does not cause by location.

Might be a modem problem. Has your issue come up suddenly or did you recently flashed it with something?

it looks like modem problem. You may try to flash XXMS4 modem. Most probably it solves your problem

[Q] Data Connection bug. How to solve?

The Edge symbol in my Galaxy S2 disappears when the signal is down.
It never reappear when the network signal get back. Even If i change all settings... tried disable/enable "Use packet Data" and other settings...
NO USE! It seemed to be serious and consistent bug.
Hi balavj, maybe a silly question, but are you sure that you are in an area well covered by edge gprs signal?

Signal drops inside a room... when i come out of a room... network signal regains... everything works... data connection symbol does not come back... this is the exact problem... only after reboot... it resolves
Ah I see... Never met these conditions with my phone here, so sorry I can't be of much help.

i am having a similar problem, seems to have happened quite recently for me as previously i had no real issues with it at all.
I keep having to reboot my phone to get a mobile network connection, otherwise the Mobile Network Status shows as connecting all the time...
Very strange
Try other modem, or shove the phone into airplane mode and back again should kick it back onto data.
I have the same problem here...
Tried KE4 (Original), KG7 and KH3 modems e nothing..
Tried many roms too, and nothing, the problem is on all of them...
Data on/off, Airplane mode on/off, nothing gets data working back, only reboot...
Ps.: ROMs tested: Lite'ning, Cognition, Exynos, KE4, KG7.
Kernels: Niphetamine, Jeffrey, Speedmod
SAme here
same here...
Is anyone still experiencing this?
I was having major issues with connectivity, data and calls. I got to the point where i could barely make or receive a call or connect to a mobile data network.
I tried numerous modems and firmware, including original O2 carrier branded firmware, generic firmware and custome ROMs. I found the problem replicating across them all.
I finally settled on Crsikelos ROM (V14) with KE7 modem, however i had previously done a full wipe install of my original O2 firmware (XWKDE i think) and tried a couple of different modems (KH3, KE2 and KE7).
I even tried removing my SD card as i am convinced my sd card is not compatible and is causing issues...
All of a sudden everything started to work again?? I put my SD card back in and left it in, no chance everything was still working. So then i flashed Criskelos Rom and made sure my modem was KE7, that was about a week ago and it's still all good.
TBH i think it may be something to do with O2's network being pants (rather than my SD card )....
Not sure this will help but i thought i'd post my experience for you...
Hope you get it fixed
i have the same problem i.e data loses connection. after a fresh flash of stock rom and factory reset , it starts working fine for a week or so and then the shyt happens again . i can tell u , its not a hardware issue, it more like a software issue.
i m not good at android but wen i used to run squid on a linux machine as a proxy server , i recall i had to clear a log file to make data flow possible every few days. i think android has a similar issues some logs files build up or some **** like that.

[Q] Modem connectivity problems

My phone seems to be able to connect to the network. The correct carrier is listed (Airtel GH), signal strength is -95 dBm, service state, 'in service', and everything else seems to be fine. But I can't make any calls. The phone just stays silent, and MMI codes also fail. Although, when I first turn it on, it works fine for a while.
AP: I9300XXBLH1
CP: I9300DDLH1
CSC: I9300ODDBLG2
Help would be appreciated.
Just noticed
Okay, I just noticed that when mobile data is on, the connectivity is better, but still fluctuates. I flashed a few radios, but each one seems to have the same problem. Please help. :fingers-crossed:
BTW, I was running CM10, then went back to stock when I noticed the problem.
flash a different modem/radio..
if you are rooted then go to recovery and wipe cache/dalvik cache and reboot. if it still persists, you might as well contact your network service provider
Dalvik?
Will clearing the dalvik cache have any effect on the radio files? I kinda tried to stay away from root when I noticed the problem, and was using Odin to flash. Anyway, I'll try it now.
So basically, you can connect calls, but no sound, but data and texting works fine? Because that's the issue I have with my i9300. It happened out of nowhere and it looks to be a common issue with absolutely no fix.

I have weirdest unsolvable problem. would love some help

I have sgs3 international. A few months ago my phone started having down times. By down times mean that the network connection suddenly lost. I get the no signal sign where the reception bar is. It says no service in the status bar and I cant do any network related functions such as calling, sms, recive calls and surf the web. The phone would randomly lose the connection and find it again. The down times started on short perios and get worse with time. Today my phone is mostly down and sometimes get reception. When I reboot when its down and check imei it says null/null. When it has connection the imei is normal. After short use on the phone it gors down again but the imei stays the same but goes to nnull after restart. I tried different operating systems it didnt help. Tried different methods of backing up and restoring efs, didnt help. Also I rwad a lot of no service symptoms but in none of them had the peoblem of random down and up times.
Tried anti virus and nothing was found.
Also I dont know if its relevant but at the beginning my system memory used to fill up during the down times. My hd filled up in 2 days while I didn't use the phone. I reset factory settings to clear thr hd (my system folder would grow until the entire hd was full). After formatting and installing different os. Today only the down time persists and it only get worse.
Please if you ever incountered this or have any info HELP ME!!!
Can anyone please help. I cant dolve this on my own. Am I the only one this happend to? If I have an invalid .nv_data or some other filebwrong in my efs folder would my phone be able to reconnect to the network every once in a while? Are there viruses that block phone communication? If it is a virus what should I look for? A specific file or folder on my phone (my phone is rooted and I have rooted explorer). Has anyone encountered anything like what I describe?
Since this problem happens from time to time, and it is not permanent, I guess that your IMEI number is intact.
Have you tried a different modem?
You could also try an official update of Sammy i.e. if you use 4.1.2, you could upgrade to 4.3 through OTA maybe
the same goes to me, i have similar problem with him, pls help us! :crying:

I9300 Network Issues

Hi all!
For about a week my International Samsung Galaxy S3 (i9300) have been experiencing network issues. At first I have full connection and after a while the network cuts off and my sim card disables (in the status bar the mobile data icon shows "no data sim") and then it switches back on and everything works.
This process happens constantly.
I have tried numerous solutions like flashing new ROM and trying to view logs.
It still shows the IMEI and I don't want to unnecessarily modify my EFS I've read that it can cause serious problems.
What is the problem and how can it be solved? Any help is most welcome and I will send logs and info if needed.
If the problem is already solved please show a link because I couldn't find anything that helps.
Thanks in advance!
I'm having a similar problem with my I9300 as well, the difference is that the network only gets cut off when I try to make a call, and then it comes back after a few seconds, and it doesn't show 'no data sim' it just stays with no connection (no bars). Messaging and 3G Data connection works fine.
I already tried to solve with several methods, the only one that I didn't try is to Odin flash back to stock, wich I don't really want to. I'm running cm-11-2016 at the moment.

GT-i8552B Stop work SIMs and solve only on restart

Problem occurs with stock Rom. And I already tried CM11 and others ROMs.
When I turn on the phone, everything work great, both SIM registered, calls working, 3G connection. But after hours using (sometime 2 hours, sometime 6 hours aleatory) the signal indicator remain showing full signal, but is showed on "about" that network and phone number is unknown but still show type of signal (3G, Edge, UTMS). On both SIMs. Emergency calls only. Is like that could not read the SIMs card. And I can´t receive calls or make calls of connect on 3G. So, when I realize the problem I restart the phone and it come normal for hours. Airplane mode don´t fix, just restart.
I Already tried with stock BUBUANH1 (my phone is GT-i8552B) and BUBUANF1.
I believe that is a soft problem because my wife have same phone (both are after jul 14) and the problem occurs in both. I think very improbable to be hardware problem in two phones.
On my mind, this problem always occurred in the past, but I don´t had identified yet. The SIMs card were tested on gt6313 and worked well for 2 days.
I going crazy with this.
Could you tell what can fix it? i already searched for the modem.bin to this phone but cant find, anyway i think that if it was the problem it would never works.
First time when I used odin to flash, I chosed Phone instead PDA and flashed the stock tar file. The phone get a loop, but after I flashed using PDA the phone worked fine. Could this to be the cause? Could corrupted some thing?
