hi my phone updated to Emui 4.0 .... android 6.0
literally the moment it happened ive got two problems which im aware of .. number one they made changes to the settings area ,. so now my phone only charges when plugged into a pc .. i cant even find the setting to let me access the disk ... ive tried 4 cables
2). facebook literally freezes whenever i try to upload more than 7 photos. . ive re-installed facebook .. but its obviously this update which has created the problem .. also the camera is now sluggish . ..
is anyone else reporting similar problems ???
and anyone advise me how to get it read the data on the phone again .. before i reset it to factory settings
thanks
To read the file system, unlock the phone, swipe down the notification area, and tap the "files" button in the USB section (iirc)
My only issue seems to be 4G - my handset upgraded to B371 at the weekend, and was OK yesterday, but 4G was playing up again this morning. I had the same issue with B330 and B370, and ended up rolling back to B180. I'll see how the rest of the week goes, otherwise I might be rolling it back again.
@jaffas21 as @lybad suggested, upon connecting your phone to PC, swipe down the notification panel, and you'll there see two options Photos & Files, if you select Files you can transfer files from phone to PC via MTP protocol, its the most easy way. And yes the latest update(B371) makes camera bad. I think its a beta update, so bugs are expected.

My handset is running B371, as is my wife's - but it was released as an OTA, and neither of us are on the beta updates list. So I'm not convinced it's a beta release.
(Though I still have 4G issues with marshmallow on mine - through B330, B360, and B371)
@lybad what exactly is this 4G issue?

Enough to drive me up the wall.
Sorry for the length of this:
I don't have 4G near my home, but I do when I go to work in Dundee.
When I got the handset, it was running Android L - when MM came out I did a manual install of B330. When I run any of the MM builds, my phone is fine in 3G/2G mode, but when I set it to use 4G mode, there is no guarantee it will work at all. For example, you can try the Speedtest app, and it might come back with Network Communication errors, or download speeds of 1 or 2 Mb/s. If you visit a web page, network traffic will be bytes/s rather than Kb/s. If you switch the phone to use 3G, in the same spot, you will probably get 10-15Mb/s in Speedtest. Reboot the phone, using 4G, and you might get faster speeds, but more often than not, you won't. I did a factory reset, and that didn't make any difference.
So I rolled back my handset to B180, and everything was fine again - 4G worked flawlessly, and the world was good. At the weekend my phone told me B371 was available, so I did an OTA update, and we're back to the same thing. 3G is fine, 4G isn't - reboot, and you might be OK, but go home, and back into work the following day, and it doesn't work again.
So really frustrating, and all Honor have suggested is to roll back to B180 again.

It might be a bug in Marshmallow update, they need to compile the modem more properly in order to solve this issue. I don't have 4G in my area so can't test it for now, but after a couple of weeks maybe I will. Let's see how it goes for me. BTW have you tried it on any Custom ROMs?

If it helps, I'm on 3 UK as a network - I'm needing to check with them to see if they know of any issues with MM, as I saw on one of the official Honor forums they were validating the builds a couple of weeks ago for OTA. Mine was a Vmall purchase though.
No, I'm not one for playing around with ROMs really - I just keep an eye on the forums on XDA as they tend to be most informed on devices generally.

So after rebooting about a week ago on BAMF Remix 1.7 (I think the ROM is irrelevant but just putting it in for information's sake), my 3g/mobile data stopped working. When I go into network settings, the Mobile network option is checked to connect to the internet and under APNs, there is a vzwinternet profile with a green (I'm guessing turned on?) marker.
I've tried various ROMS: BAMF, BAMF Remix, CM7, and even the Gingerbread variations of BAMF as well.
Also I've experimented with all of the radios (every one listed under the obligatory radio thread) and different kernels.
And lastly, I've wiped multiple times every time I've flashed a new ROM and have even formatted my SD card hoping it was some rogue application that disabled it.
So what can I do to bring back 3g/mobile data?
Note: Wifi, calls, and sms will works for me. MMS does not however.
I have the same problem but mine shows after rebooting, than say error when I try browser or anything that has to do with data, But works at times.
*WALK in the WORD*
Mine isn't working at all. Not even after rebooting.

How you checked with your Carrier? I'm with Orange UK and my 3g was down for 4 days once due to cell tower maintenance...
Might be worth a call to check!?

This happened to me, exactly as you've stated. I posted here but got no remedy. I tried all the things you've mentioned, reflashing the ROM, raeflashing the radio, etc. Nothing helped.
Finally, I had the idea to restore a recent backup from before I had the problem. THAT worked. I hope it helps you too.
I didn't have a chance to call during the day but I did head over to my friend's house who lives in a different area. She has VZW just as me and she was getting 3G on her blackberry but 3G/mobile data was still unavailable for me.
It's not a coverage issue but on my end.
While lurking around the mobile data settings, there was a profile for VZW under APN settings. Could someone post theirs so I could see if they match with mine? Maybe that's the solution to my problem?
I don't think it's rom dependent. I lost 4g the other day and I have yet to get it back. I have my own theories but the jerk at the VZW store wouldn't let me try my theory. I'm waiting for my usual rep to comeback, she lets me try just about anything I want. The rest are just dicks. I have tried swapping roms, radios, and all but going back stock to fix it. And nothing has brought it back. BTW, have you tried CDMA prl to see if you can get data at all? I can get 3g that way, but when I go into evdo/lte or lte only I lost all data. Also, do you have it in rev A mode under your modem settings?
I had this exact same problem with BAMF remix 1.6.3, to make this story short this is how it eventually got fixed:
Go into settings and do a check for new software.
This will force 3g to cut on. (Note: it may take a few times for the 3g to come on and STAY ON. It took me almost a day doing it about every hour.
Enjoy
Holy crap, that worked. Of all the things I tried and I couldn't get anything. Now LTE is back. You're awesome.

I have to go to work right now but yes it is turning on 3G at the moment but it's only using the up arrow (eg. uploading data but not downloading data). I"m guessing with a couple of more tries it'll eventually lock in.
If this doesn't work on gingerbread, I'll try reverting back to froyo and try it then as well.

Glad I could help.. I spent nearly two hours on the phone with Tier II support and they guy said.. well this is a long shot but try this. Didnt work the first time I tried it so he sent me a new phone but in the time it took to get the new phone, I kept trying and it finally locked in.
Ok, well I thought it worked. Every time I try it, it will give me the 4gLTE indicator, but if I open up anything that uses data it just says no mobile conectivity then after about 5-6 min it stops showing any data. Also, I can still go back to CDMA(PRL) and get 3g. It's just under 4GLTE/evdo and lte only.
BTW, for any other future reference, I started experiencing these issues right after I debloated (uninstalled) the blockbuster app.

keep trying... it will stick eventually
It's alright, I have a replacement coming tuesday. I just have to return to stock before then.
When you guys went to the software update option, during that duration when it was enabled were both 3G arrows animated? I'm only getting an up arrow (uploading).
I've been trying now for hours on the PRL setting and also cdma+lte/evdo auto
Well, I haven't been able to get this to work. Is there anything else I should try besides the software update trick before returning my phone to stock and returning it to VZ?
i had the same problem as you OP, but after pressing check new enough times and jumping straight into the browser, i got it to stick. took at least 12 tries, however and i'll see if it lasts.
love the franklin avatar btw!
also, is anyone using juice defender? idk if its coincidence or not, but i d/l the program last night and this is the first data connectivity problem i've had with the tbolt.
Yes, I had both arrows. But, for some reason when I would open the browser to google it wouldn't work. I tried about 4 times, each time it would show data, but I wouldn't have a connection. Also, it would show data being up and down stream, but I couldn't manage to get it to work when I tried it.
Hi,
Sometime today I lost my phone signal on my SG2. I'm not sure exactly at what moment as I first noticed that I had a couple of bars but no 3G when I tried to browse the web. So I restarted the phone but to no avail. Since then I've lost all bars and can't make any calls either.
The only thing I have done today "out of the ordinary" was to connect to the phone using Wifi File Explorer to transfer a file, which I tried to connect to without being on a wifi network by first trying the "Wifi Direct settings" in Settings, which didn't work, and then by tethering by Wifi which worked. Maybe some setting got stuck in the process, but I'm not sure since never checked if it worked right before and after.
If anyone has any idea what could be wrong please let me know, as I am literally without a phone!
I recommend downloading http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/communication/no-signal-alert-pro_fyyo.html this will definitely be of benefit to you if your suffering from signal problems, it has been of good use to me.
Check your IMEI is the correct one for your phone .If not restore your backed up EFS folder .
Or try backup data and factory reset as a first step.
jje
Thanks for the quick replies!
The IMEI does not correspond to the one I have written down, though I'm not 100% I what have on my note is the latest IMEI; but how could that change though by itself, if my note is correct??
Also, I just saw something very strange: I turned on my phone and had full bars (no 3G though), and right in front of my eyes all bars dropped, one by one, during the course of 5-6 seconds. Something is VERY off...
Regarding factory reset: my phone is rooted (thanks to XDA!) and I have Tit.backup: can I will my phone still be rooted if I do a factory reset?
Something went probably wrong when rooting it (not neccesarily any errors) and effed up tge EFS folder.
Try to flash back to stock ROM, it might work to restore your.folder.

I should have been more clear on that, but I rooted the phone about a month ago and it has worked flawlessly since then, so it couldn't be that.
Anyway, I looked around a little and found this post:
http://androidforums.com/samsung-ga...connectivity-but-no-idea-why.html#post2722784
He seemed to have had the exact same problem that happened to me, so I decided to wait, and sure enough the connection reestablished itself about an hour ago and while I was watching for it, with the signal slowly creeping back up during a couple of minutes, and several hours after I lost it. Very odd.
This surely has to be an Android bug but that only shows up under certain and rare conditions.
To be sure I made a speed test and got 4.84 Mbps/up, 1.19 down, which I guess is fine; I never did one prior to this so I have nothing to compare to.
Again, appreciate the advice!
EDIT: For posterity, I should add that during these hours, even when I briefly apparently had a (non-3G) signal, I had a notification during all this time saying that I could only make emergency call.
I'm having the same issue. No Bars at all most of the time and when I have some, it never connects to 3G, G at most, and can't load any thing at all.
Very frustrating. I have been using Lite'ning rom 6.1 for a few months and had no problems at all until about a week ago.
I flashed back to a stock rom and still having the same issue.
I've also seen the bars drop down one by one in a 5 second window, bizarre!
Anyone find a fix for this? Or could the phone be faulty?

I was on Lite'ning about 3 weeks ago and actually completely lost signal several times. Reboots and hard resets solved the problem temporarily. I then flashed Batista FH 2.4 with ICS and things were great. I'm now on GingerMod. No issues.
I don't know how it could be kernel related though, especially if you are 100% stock again.
Ive searched the forums, googled, factory reset, messed about with *#0011# power save, rebooted/forgot router and I'm STILL having issues with the wifi dropping and reconnecting periodically (maybe once every 10/20 mins?) . Im on BLG8 which is as far as i can tell the latest firmware (im not rooted) for the UK.
Has anyone got a solution to this? The main reason is I use Skype a lot and the call will just drop (obviously) with the wifi drop outs.
No other device has issues with my wifi router.
Any help would be much appreciated
Cheers
Does it make any difference how far you are from the router? Does it always connect fine initially?
I'm having the same issue and i've tried every fix that has been suggested. I dont understand after spending the amount of money i did on this phone that i have to run through the dialer to get it to work properly sometimes. Then other times it still drops out and wont come back on for 5 to 10 minutes. I've changed roms, kernels, and wiped completely i dont know how many times and went back to stock. Still works sometimes and hangs up others. There doesn't seem to be a permanent fix for people lucky enough to have this issue still. My 30 day return is way up and gone so i cant send it back. Samsung cant seem to give me an answer. I'm at a loss for words.

My 30 days was up, it's still been replaced under warranty. I took it to CPW who sent it away, it came back 'fixed' so I asked them to log into their WiFi... of course, they couldn't and the guy said he would order me a new phone but it would need to come from Samsung. My new one has blazing fast WiFi!
i have the same problem. i was hoping a new rom would fix it, but FWIR its busted. i get 2 bars MAX no matter how far i am from teh router. its fast enough, but it drops out constantly.
also my screen is sometimes slow to turn on from sleep.
im on vodaphone if that makes any difference.
Guys... I had a very similar problem with my phone.
First of all WiFi became very unreliable.. like yours. I changed ROM and it still persisted. I even went completely back to stock.. and it still persisted. Dropping out.. no reliable connection etc etc.
Then it started being really weird.. the touchscreen started responding intermittently. Sometimes I couldn't get it to unlock. And this was all on stock.. no root etc.
I was ready to send it back to be repaired.. and I came to the conclusion that there must be something staying the same.. even after a wipe / reflash. Maybe one of the other partitions was corrupt???
Now I'm not clever enough to investigate.. but I did come to the conclusion that a repartition may wipe everything and make it a real fresh install next time.
So I found an appropriate .pit file and stock ROM and used Odin to flash the ROM and partition the phone.
And it is now all fully functioning again.. no WiFi issues at all.
RTFM THO FFS! Potential for complete brick if you get it wrong

It seems to have improved with the latest JB leak, still every now and then but certainly better - i did a full factory reset + cache wipe in stock recovery (im unrooted etc). Still, would a modified kernel/modem fix this very common issue?
This problem is everywhere it seems.
OK so really weird update: my screen unlock is still a bit slow, but my wifi hasnt dropped for a few hours. i went through all the vodafone crap and updated/ran/configured it all, and now it seems fine. seemed vodafone wanted to verify my phone+sim details but couldnt over the wifi so kept trying to do it over the 3g, but couldnt do it quickly enough so the wifi cut it back out again. I have a headphone amplifier that is very sensitive to mobile phone signals. it beeps 4 seconds before i get a message or phonecall, and "ticked" at me whenever my wifi dropped out. its not ticked in hours.
TL;DR anyone on vodafone, run your "my vodafone" application and configure it all. might fix it.
Mine drops wireless a lot when connected to wireless A networks. It seems stable on wireless N networks. Anyone else notice A networks to be worse?

I am currently experiencing horribly low wifi reception. Sitting right next to the router the signal jumps from full to low randomly and it doesn't catch any wifi in spots where my other devices do. What do I do? Same happened in 4.3 and 4.4.2.
I already did factory reset, switched from Auto to 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, same happens (Well, no wifi with 5GHz band.). My router is okay, other devices catch the signal two floors down, while this can't keep it stable right next to it.

I'm seeing the same problem. As much as I love the design, both the Wi-Fi and Cell reception are the worst I've ever had on a phone. HORRIBLE.
could be any number of issues. each persons environment is different.
i have a linksys wrt 1900 AC router and I use all 5ghz devices and the one max works wonderfully on the 5ghz spectrum.
could be an issue with your radio in the phone itself. im stock non rooted latest update.
The cell reply is great, I have nothing to say about it. However, I took it to the dealer and they'll change the wifi chip, we'll see how it'll go.

Do you have any (good) news from your dealer ? I have the same problem as snapz54. WiFi speed is about 10x slower than my 10 cm distant laptop when I'm not really close to my AP and EDGE/3G/HSDPA/4G data works well only 1 min if I'm in luck when i reset my connection (airplane mode on/off). The rest of the time, well... See joigned screenshot...
I tried stock 4.3, 4.4.2 Sense 5.5 & 6/CM/PAC/NuSense ROMs with stock/FlyKernel/built-in kernels and 4T.21.3218.31_10.16.1718.01L (3.15.1540.1) / ?Don't remember? (3.14.707.3) radios with no luck.

Right, now I am in trouble. Flashed ROM, forgot to wipe data (maybe it does have to do somehing with the problem.), booted, got decryption password because of "unable to mount /data". Went back to recovery and restored my old stock ROM. However, decryption screen still persists, leaving me able to use lockscreen only. The problem is that this rom has USB debugging off and Fast Boot on and I can't change that because of the password requirement, so I can't use ADB or boot into recovery using keys. What do I do to get into recovery?

Hold volume down while phone is booting. Should do the trick. That will get you into fastboot which allows you to get into recovery.
Holding Vol Up + Vol Down + Power while phone was on did the trick, as it restarted and while it was resarting I did Vol Down + Power and voila, problem solved.
Hi guys,
I'm still on Nougat 7.1.2 with my Swift 2+. I'm waiting for the OTA, don't want to side load if I can help it.
I'm trying to get an idea of the proportion of people that are still waiting for their OTA and those that have already received it.
EDIT: nobody received Oreo via the OTA? oh boy...
I just got the OTA, posting this from Oreo
I manually updated (to check for OTA), and am downloading it now
Updated to 8.1 using the official download and now stuck in boot loop. Fortunately remembered to back up my data first.
Update - factory reset got me going again. The next day the battery crashed to 0% charge in no time at all.
All OK now... fingers crossed.
wish I had not chaged to Ori,,
Hi
Have two swift 2x phones in family
my one received the OTA wedensday,
performed the change,
now have no on line data, only over wifi,
Some paramiter like ATP that needs changing but Virgin does not knwo how to
Other phone received invitation to change to 8.1,

No issues with the camera? I can't make any pictures or movie clips.

Did initially have camera problem,
but after power of and reset,
all good,
after received the phone did 3 OTA upgrades in a row, 2 nougat then oreo. After oreo you have to restart the phone to make camera work again. Still I wish there was LOS or RR or AEX roms on 8.1
Turns out it was an issue with my SD card (128GB, which is not officially supported). With 32GB it works fine. Still disappointing (because it worked before the update)
Got it last night.
Phone been utterly terrible since.
Just done a factory reset hoping it would fix it.
It's taking time to re-setup because of constant repeating steps..
This update has made my phone so much poorer.
I thought it might be the SD card so I went from 64gb down to 32gb.
I even made the SD portable instead.
Done 3 factory resets...
It's randomly (but often!) unresponsive
