1. MMS stops working by itself, after factory reset starts working again. No settings are being changed.
2. Bluetooth connection to my car Audi Handfree is very unreliable and causes network connection to stall, no data and calls go straigh to voicemail.
3. Call waiting stoped working. Everytime i get a second call my primary call mutes and I can't hear the other person and they can't hear me. By switching back and forth between callers I am able to hear first caller again.
All of these issues are solved by factory reseting the phone.
Does anyone have a clue why is this happening?
Using latest KE7 software.
I am on rogers and are having no issues with my phone that you are having... Maybe you got a bad phone?
Can you check if your mms messaging work?

On Rogers in Southwestern Ontario. I don't use MMS, so I don't have much experience with that.
I have used by SGS2 with BT Audio and calls on an Alpine KCE-400BT (Parrot unit rebranded as Alpine) and a Sony Xplod unit without any unusual behaviour
Haven't used call waiting other than by accident, no experience there either.
Hi I'm on Rogers is Windsor, I don't use MMS or bluetooth, but I use call waiting very often and not once as it messed up on me.
Anyone using Rogers having problems with digital call display? Whenever someone calls me it comes up as "unknown" but my account has digital call display on it.
I have seen name display work fine on my phone.it's a fantastic feature!

I updated to KF2 and and lost data and voice fo about 70% of the time. Now I am back to KE4 and it is OK.

Everything has been fine here. Have not had a problem yet but I have only had the phone for two weeks.

Anyone using Rogers having any data stalling/dropping issues? It seems like every time I go into an area with no signal (subway or elevator for example) it just doesn't seem to connect back onto the network fully. Even though it will say 3G, the data connection is actually dead and I usually have to wait a while or cycle airplane mode to get it back.
I'm using the KE4 radio. If you guys are having no problems, could you tell me which ROM and radio (baseband) you're using? Also, if fast dormancy is enabled or disabled? You can check with dialing *#9900#. Also, which APN you're using for data? Is it the internet.com one or the rogers-core-appl1.apn?
Thanks
I just got a Bell SGS2 yesterday and rooted/unlocked it. I'm having 2 problems to date:
1) GPS cannot fix. I can be in view of 12 satellites, but it just won't fix.
2) My SMS timestamps are screwed up. Every message comes in with a stamp of 4 hours earlier.
Anyone else having these problems?
EDIT: Oddly enough, MMS works AND the timestamp is correct.

Hi guys, how did you get it to unlock to work on rogers? I have tried the free app on the market but that doesn't work out for me.
I have rooted the phone already.
Sorry for hijacking the thread.

Instead of getting the Galaxy S2 unlock app from the market, get the Galaxy_S app. It'll crash the phone at step 2, but it'll be unlocked after it reboots!

I haven't had this problem with my SGS2, but I've had it with previous Android and Windows phones. It is a known bug.
Apparently the problem isn't present when using Handcent SMS (which is really good anyways) or you can use this program designed specifically to fix the problem.

Might be a dumb question, but did you check your APN settings? Maybe they got messed up somehow.

This is why I'm afraid of using anything but the stock Kernel. No problems here on my unlocked stock SG2.

Hey guys,
I just got an unlocked Japanese Galaxy S 2 (brand: NTT Docomo) and cannot get 3G to work on my phone. I am with Rogers.
I've tried enabling bands using the USSD codes but have had no luck.
Anyone else using a Japanese GS2 and got 3G to work on Rogers?

NTT works on completely different frequencies....there is no way it'd work here. If you want a phone that'd work in Japan then you'd need to buy one here and get a Softbank SIM card while in Japan.

I unlocked my lg g6 via gc pro remotely, but I also new have issues with my data upload speed. When I do a speed test I get good download speeds but zero upload speed. It is not my provider as if I put the sum in another phone it gets good upload speed. So on data I also can't send pics

Dare I suggest a factory reset, or would that reinstall the sim lock?

Tried a factory reset before, did not work.
I've been through T-Mobile and Metropcs with the same issue (not carrier-related issue?)
I've switched a sim card as well (not sim-related issue?)
Makes me think its a phone issue or unlock issue, or something else I'm missing.

No sir, it's nothing like that, I've already done factory reset card change all that is not, it's not problem unlock, the problem I dare say is the ROM firmware that has sprint lock

Hey all - I bought an LS993 from Sprint, had it unlocked remotely through ebay. Sprint also confirms the IMEI is unlocked.
The problem
Voice works
Text works
Download works
Upload does NOT WORK
To be specific, I can send messages through chat apps, phone/texts/MMS are fine, but CANNOT use uber, instagram, send pics through chat apps, etc. on data. It all works fine through wifi.
Been working on finding out what the solution is for a couple of months and for the life of me I don't know how to fix this. Did my unlock not work? Is my hardware faulty?
Thanks in advance.

I have searched (there are a few threads pertaining to this, but no definitive answer pertaining to my only question)
Bought the wife an unlocked S8 from Samsung, everything works well on Verizon that is to be expected, EXCEPT video calling using Hangouts or Duo. I have changed the mobile data to LTE/CDMA from global but doesn't change anything. Everytime we try to video call, it never connects and something pops up mentioning an error with the network. Doesn't matter if on WiFi or 4G.
Can anyone confirm that ANY video calling with an unlocked S8 doesn't or does work on VZN?
Can anyone think of possible fixes?
Is my only option to follow the instructions on this thread? (https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/help/unlocked-galaxy-s8-samsung-flashing-t3669156)

I have read yesterday that a user had issues with Youtube, where the video would play for the first 5 to 6 seconds, then stop. The issue seems to be connected to network error of some sort. I am with T-Mobile using unlocked s8 and no issues at all with network or other apps that rely on data.

Whatever the problem is it has nothing to do with your carrier if it doesn't work on wifi as well. Also duo has nothing to do with any calling options as it's a purely internet service. I promise you if no s8s could watch internet videos at all someone would have noticed lol
This all likely indicates an issue with the phone, or with your home network and with your phone. Take it to where you got it or some other VZW help place and ask for help

Thanks guys, you got me thinking and tried a video call with WhatsApp, and it worked both on WiFi and 4G. So I think my question has been answered, but has led to other questions now, like why is Duo and Hangouts not working.... I've checked each permissions......anyway, I guess that is for another thread. Thanks for getting me here.
EDIT: her phone has always played YouTube videos and YouTube TV....in case anyone comes across this thread.

You're welcome
It's q/a section I don't see why we can't continue here....
Maybe try uninstalling and reinstalling them?
Also do you have another Google account to test with? If so try adding it to your phone (under settings -> accounts) and then login to duo/hangouts with that account and try.
Also how are you testing it? Video chat 1:1? hangout? If it's 1:1 direct, how are you initiating it? You call them or they call you?

So I figured why would WhatsApp video (yes, 1:1) work and not hangout/duo unless it's a different protocol...which led me to think what could be blocking one and not the other which made me think about about my ad-blocking app 'Block-this!' I turned that off and magically, Hangouts and Duo worked flawlessly.....ugh.
Gah, n00b mistake.

Thanks! I guess my phone need to flash from 975F to 975U to have RTT in it.
Can it be done??
Let me know.
Thanks!
I wouldn't try it as I don't think you can cross firmware versions like that without running into a mountain of issues or a bricked device. If you have a F phone you have to flash the F firmware. Same goes for U phones, only U firmwares will work on them.
