SHV-E210L Having signal/data issues

I have the LGUPLUS korean galaxy s3 and am using an att simcard with it. Im not entirely experienced with phone tweaks so i was hoping someone on here can help. When i boot up my phone it will try to find signal, when it does the signal is usually low around one bar and is stuck on G data instead of 4g. Is there a fix to this? Or is there any modifications that can be made to allow the 4g data? Ive messed with he hidden menu but changing the settings didnt seem to help the extremely slow data issue. Any help is much appreciated.

help, weak cellphone signal

Hello my phone's operator signal is weak like 2 bars and sometimes its just looking to connect to the operator
i had the stock rom with lollipop now i have Vision X rom but still the same, i need advice, can it get better if i install a new kernel, new modem (what do you recomend?) or a new rom, im trying to find another rom with android 5.1.1, thanks in advice guys
this is 3G or LTE? is one better signal than the other? why do you think adjusting the phone will fix it? you could try another phone on the same carrier to attempt to confirm if it's simply your location that's the problem

No network signal

Hi to all.
I put Cofface's cyano into my Redmi 3 a week ago and it worked fine except for the network signal that seemed to me to be weaker than on stable or dev miui rom. Yesterday I don't know what i did, i just switched the network type from the services menu (*#*#4636#*#*) to see the signal strenght of 2g/3g/4g and after doing that, the phone stopped to take signal with my SIM in any network type. So i switched back through MiFlash (and selected flash all option), to the Dev and also to the stable rom, but now I just have 4G working.
I tried to put again CM and i get no signal in every network type, even trying to restore a nandroid backup that i made when the phone worked. I also tried to flash through fastboot the NON-HSLO.bin took from developer rom, but nothing changed. What could it be? Where I live the 4G is not everywhere so most of the time I'll be without signal and it would be really frustrating.
I tried my sim in a Samsung phone and it takes both 2g/3g (the phone doesn't have 4g) , but trying another sim in my phone (of the same carrier) gives me the same result of above : only 4g . While on CM that sim could connect (only 4g) but mine not.
Please help me! :crying:
sorry if i didn't explain myself well, but I'm not english
EDIT: with the 4G i can only surf on the net but i can't make or receive phone calls. I'm giving up on this phone
EDIT2: following some guides I erased modemst1 and modemst2 but now I'm unable to get IMEI and I have unknown baseband
I have the same problem as you (almost)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-3/help/cellular-network-redmi-3-t3370459
I also have poor reception and can't make any call or receive them on any band 2g/3g/4g and i have this problem since I received the phone.
Did you fix your problem??
I have the same problem of very bad cellular signals.
with the same carrier, when other phones 2 samsung, 1 chinese (cheap unbranded), one very old nokia all have good reception, xiaomi redmi 3 pro is inaccessible from other phones.
today I'll try to install some signal booster apps from thestreet.com/story/11733410/1/7-apps-that-improve-smartphone-reception.html hopping for the best.
if anyone find any solution please update

No cellular network redmi 3

Hello, this is my first post on the forums here.
Iv'e purchased a Xiaomi Redmi 3 last week. It turned on fine and after the first turnoff-turn on it simply didn't turn on again and was stuck on the mi logo.
Iv'e downloaded the latest stable chinese rom and flashed using miflash and the phone started working properly again.
The problem is I do not have a cellular signal. It's either non existent (empty bars marked with 'x'), empty bars or one or two bars at most. Even when there are bars I cannot receive or make any calls (when i call the phone it just rings and the nothing happens).
The sim card itself is new (micro), the phone is new. I tried contacting the cellular company and they said everything is fine on their side, also iv'e tried the sim card on another device and it worked. I tried fiddling with different settings like changing from preferred lte to prefer 3g, adding new vpn, changing the sim card settings through the phone from WCDMA, only LTE so on and so forth and nothing worked.
Iv'e read around the forums here about the whole bootloader unlock, rooting, dev roms. I'm a newbie when it comes to these things and don't know weather I should do there and if it would help my problem.
Oh and last thing, I also verified that the device 3g/4g networks are compatible with the cellular companies in my country (same ones).
Thanks in advance,
Maybe there's a problem with ur set. I didn't root nor unlock the bootloader and reception has been fine for me from the start.

So you think it might be a faulty phone?
EDIT: I don't know if this helps or connected to my issue but i have this notification at the top saying "your SIM card isn't activated". I can't link to the pic since i'm a new user.
No one knows how to fix my problem?
I've got a similar problem I think.
I searched until I found that while flashing my IMEIs got lost and so the phone can't register to the networks.
Now I continue searching how to restore the IMEIs...

Problem: Network signal unstable/weak

Hello all,
I do have the following problem which is not new and mentioned in other threads but there is no solution and the threads are quiet old - so I hope it is OK to start a new one:
My LeMax2 is constantly dropping the network signal and the signal is in general very weak (I can only get calls outside, Internet is working irregular "sometimes", outside only. After arrival signal was fine. No difference. Flashed a couple of different custom roms, still fine. Ended up using SmallEUI. After a while (maybe two weeks) signal dropping began. What I tried so far:
- Flashed alternate modem file from SmallEUI, no difference.
- Switched rom back to india20s. Problem stayed the same. -
- Switched to LOS13 (which is still running).
- Entered *#*#4636#*#* switched and set GSM/UMTS band to automatic. Problem got worse.
- flashed various modem files, no difference
- renewed APN settings. No difference.
- Found about 4 threats regarding this problem, can not find a solution. This is exactly my problem: https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/help/mobile-network-problems-le-max-2-6gb-t3507500
Help? Please? What can I do now?

Have you looked into your carrier? Maybe it's not a device problem..... Try a signal app to see if your connecting to the right bands, getting a good enough signal ....
Have you tried a factory reset?
When I was with T-Mobile they cut service in my area without letting customers know, I ended up buying a signal amplifier for my house to finish out my contract.

Hey,
thank you for your reply. I put the SIM card into another phone and it worked like a charm. So I think it is not the carrier. Rechecked the APN settings also. Regarding the LTE band I am not sure. Most of the time I only get a H+ connection so no LTE band at all. Thing is: The connection was really good with this phone in the beginning.
Factory reset: Yes, and even more (flashed 6 different roms I think and various modems)
Best,
TOM
x829 no signal
i lived in ireland i have x829 from banggood i don't have networking signal strange when i when battery is 0% turn off phone after Charge the battery signal come back for few minutes after again disappear
I have the same problem. I am living in India, and the signal drop is very frequent.
Earlier i only used to get H+, but from few days i get the LTE band but the signal fluctuates almost every second and very unstable - especially the data. The whole mobile network keeps dropping also frequently. Been a pain in the but*
Using RR v5.8 official
This thing solved the LTE stability problem for me:
Type *#*#4636#*#* on the dialer
select phone info
Click the menu on top right on action bar
Select radio band and select band 43
I get decent speeds with some sudden boosts from time to time. PS I am using Airtel in India.
I have the same problem. I am living in sri lanka, and the signal drop is very frequency The whole mobile network keeps dropping also frequently. Been a pain in the but*
i wish to get updates on this problem, cause this is a pain. tried every method mentioned. tried different new roms (rr, LOS, Eui, stock 26s and 21s roms)
Maybe someone has solutions?

Hey, did you have success in resolving the issue?
I had problems too with my le s3 x626, it didn't recognize the sim card anymore, froze, and had to force reboot. Luckily, it was a battery issue. For some reason when the phone goes under 10%, it does that. Easily solved upon charging (happened more than once).
Same issue in the philippines
Heyyo, I'd recommend looking into AEX as @shivatejapeddi recently made a bunch of changes for VoLTE and carrier settings that might help.
Otherwise? It could be your carrier might need further apn and carrier configuration changes in order to work at least on custom ROMs.
Another thing to try? Replacing your /system/etc/apns-conf.xml with this one from the Pixel 2 XL. Download it > reboot to TWRP > mount system > make a copy of that /system/etc/apns-conf.xml somewhere as a backup > replace the /system/etc/apns-conf.xml with the one downloaded > reboot to system > reset apn configuration to defaults to force ROM to reload apns-conf.xml

magandang umaga! I'm mestizo and my wife is a Filipina, thus my son is second generation mestizo hehe. What carrier you with? I can try and look into it but no guarantees I can fix it.
Please try the above apns-conf.xml to see if that works
Has anyone found a solution for this problem? I think I have tried every rom and every medem file but no luck...The one thath works best for me is EUI 30s from Crisbal, but still i some times lose the networksignal from time to time
I hae let phone here I CANADA. same prob. Phone ..drops service every 5-10 mins. Carrier is not the problem. As.ive tried many
same problem
leeco le 2 x526 : signal if is starting , after i enter inside building ...it drops instant .... try different stock roms . version .and custom roms (now i am on RR 6.0 - good for camera ) .....baseband of my carrier are recognise , 5 diff. modem firmware .... nothing .... any sugestion is worth trying ..... lets find the solution together .
Ok this is super weird but the Leeco Le Max pro I used had the same issue. BUT. When I'd switch on the hotspot, and let someone connect to my Leeco, they get unrestricted LTE speeds. I cannot use my phone data plan but others can using my wifi So. I don't know exactly what's the issue. All those with this issue do check their hotspot capabilities. Thank you.

same problem
tried everything, the last one to do for me is REWRITE IMEI on the phone, i noted a strange IMEI=0 or some difficult in reading it (x526 from myefox.it)
Dialing *#*#4636#*#*
Hi devrookie,
I did it as you mentioned in your comment above...didnt worked
Selected radio band...there is no option of 43 infact there is nothing to select...
anyone got this resolved guys? i just bought two leeco x520 phones and both have the same issue. wifi keeps dropping over and again every 10 seconds or so. It's like a loop........ drop .. reconnect .. drop .. reconnect .. and so on. tried two roms so far, currently on lineage os 16.0 and have the same issue on this rom too. on top of the connectivity problem, a new problem has came up .. the phone shuts down while playing games which is super annoying. and the phone heats up a lot while recharging the battery. i'm so fed up
