I have Vodafone Sim in my mobile it gives 6 months 1gb Internet for free..This is 2nd month for me and from Morning it is giving Edge speed but not 3G speed (H/H+/3g).When I switch off my mobile and restart it than it gives 3g speed or swift to Flight Mode and stay for few minutes and than switch off Flight Mode but once I switch off the Mobile Internet and switch it on it goes back to Edge..I thought I did something wrong with settings and did a Factory reset still same problem...What do you think is it a setting problem and Service Provider Problem?

I am sure they know my number already Because I gave it to them more than 3 times to activate the 1gb Offer and few days back other reasons (Keep getting a Refreshing Sim) but I didn't answer there call I was busy....They always reply to me so late and it make me MAD!
Hey,
Since yesterday my phone is always on roaming, i have two questions:
1. What does roaming mean?
2. How to disable it?

All I know is that I keep it on and only incur charges if I use it outside my country(which I won't).

But what does roaming exactly mean? It changed just yesterday till now.

Roaming means you are outside of your home network aka abroad.

What are you saying about it.Was it off and came on?.What do you mean "it changed"?.

If you are talking about the data roaming option in settings that comes only to effect if you are abroad. It's basically telling your phone whether it's allowed to use data traffic while outside of your home network.

I'm not abroad, it changed by itself and I have "R" letter above the signal, Do you mean that now I'm not connected to my network? Why would something like that happen suddenly? And how to change it back?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
No idea how it could happen if you are in your home country. You may try to contact your operator to check what they see in their systems.

Are you on the three network? If so you have dropped off 3 network and gone on the the orange 2g network. 3 have a roaming agreement with orange..
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Why you asked here & didn't contact your carrier in the first instance is beyond me. For whatever reason, your phone is obviously connecting to a network other than your carrier by default.
Why ? Who knows ? Could be a problem with your carrier where you're using your phone, and your carrier has a roaming agreement with another carrier so your phone is trying to use that network as it's the only one available.
Contact your carrier to find out/get this sorted. Nothing anyone here can say to sort it for you.
Roaming means you are not in your home network. Not necessarily you are abroad... In India when you move to a particular region where your network provider has no cell towers, you could still get the signal... This is because they have agreement with other providers there... In this case you will see the roaming symbol in Android. The setting in android phone is just to let the phone know that i would not like to use data network when in roaming. Because carriers charge more than usual for data used in roaming.

The issue happened again. I did go to the service mode you mentioned and went to device information and it simply said "GPRS: Disconnected", I can't see any errors? I then enabled and disabled flight mode and the device succesfully connected to H+. It seems like the device needs a radio reset (enabling and fisabling flight mode or restarting the phone) in order to solve the issue. What am I missing here? Is this a common problem?

How exactly did they do that? At their end or at your end?
It happened again. I was monitoring the service menu and it didn't even attempt to have a status of "connecting" when I enable mobile data, it stayed at "disconnected". I then enabled and disabled flight mode while monitoring the service menu and it immediately had a status of "connecting" and then "connected".
With this observation, there's got to be something wrong with the phone, really. If this is NORMAL, then I can accept it but if it is an isolated case then I will be very worries. Is this grounds for claiming my warranty now? Or will a better modem firmware solve this issue?
Please help me.

Are you saying that the connection went off whilr it is turned ON? For my case, the problem only happens randomly wherein it doesn't connect when I enable mobile data but once is connected it stays connected no matter what.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
I just got a new SIM from my provider but the problem is still present. I just experienced it now. After being disconnected from mobile data overnight, I tried enabling mobile data and it won't connect. As usual, the trick to solve it was to enable disable flight mode.
So any more possible solutions here?

Can't do that because my phone's carrier–locked.
I highly doubt it's the carrier that's the problem because as I've said it is not even "attempting" to connect. What do you think?

Three is your sim working#
Four have you checked your network settings
Five have you the correct modem.

I don't know if you tried to pull out the simcard and clean the contacts. This was a common issue on the HTC Desire HD and this little fix worked fine.

Updated to Jelly Bean??
if yes go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1918601
Is the phone new? Has it ever worked for you? Have you considered the fact that it could be network locked(SIM locked)?
My phone ALWAYS shows "Not registered on Network" when I'm at home, that's because signal is terrible since I updated to JB (modem related).
Have you tried different SIMs from different networks? Have you tried your current SIM in a different phone?
[the phone is from 29 june..always worked bit one day data stopped working.. i got a HTC sensation and the SIM works fine in that phone/SIZE]

Ok,
so here comes the question my girlfriend always asks me :laugh:
"What did you do between it working, and it no longer working?"
You say data doesn't work, does that mean you can make phone calls?
I didnt do anything it just stopped working and i cant do phone calls...its like using an iPod.. maybe someone blocked my imei?could it be possible?

Yes, it's entirely possible, but you'll need to check with your provider. There is no way of checking from the device itself if the IMEI has been blocked.
Did you buy the phone new?
You could, potentially, be extremely unlucky and someone blocked the wrong IMEI code when attempting to block their own.
Ye it was new..there is no way to make it work then?

Well, if it really has been blocked, you should get in touch with your provider, and potentially have to go through some lengthy process of proving to them you legitimately own the device and didn't block it yourself. It's unlikely though, as I've never heard of a device being removed from the block list before.
Your other option is to leave the country, it will work in another country
Failing that, return it to Samsung telling them it just stopping working, you did nothing, and insist they replace it.
Probably wrong Kernel, happened often to me on my old sensation

Changing the app isn't going to fix the issue if you can't get a good GPS lock. You're on the right path restoring the phone.
To test the GPS though and speed up locking you can get GPS status and tool box.

What is "EFS"?
thats funny.....Lg says its my providers problem...i am rooted and unlocked but stock rom stock everything....
I sent LG an email saying:
My issue is that even with perfect 4g LTE Reception my GPS tracks me perfectly which is awesome, however when I'm on the move(usually driving) and I'm using the device as a navigation unit, it constantly "searches for signal" . The device will not track my moving location at all. I did do a factory reset and I've recovered my data with the exception of my location settings( thinking something in the old settings is wrong causing the issue). I'm using both Google maps default app and mapquest, I'm using both because Google says its navigation feature is still in beta development.
They replied:
From the description of the navigation problem, it would seem that your network service is not providing the correct data in the signal to allow tracking operations. This is seen in the fact of having the same problems with both versions of the GPS apps on the phone. If only one of the apps had the problem, then it would have been possible for the phone to be the problem. Finally, for the physical differences between these phones, there is a very minor difference in the size of the casing. Hopefully this answers your questions. If you have further inquiries, please feel free to contact our Wireless Customer Interactive Center at 800-793-8896. ^NE

That is a lot of b.s. from LG. Right now your phone is faking your location without using GPS.
If you are rooted and unlocked I am assuming you know how to make nandroids and flash ROMs. Try the fix in this link and let us know how you make out.
