Problem with phone signal

Hello!
I spent last week in France and I had a lot of problems with GSM signal. Phone sometimes can't connect to operater. When I looked in settings menu I saw only ''searching'' and nothing happend. Then I just click on ''Find network'' and after some second everything was OK.
For me is this a big problem because I must be reachable all the time.
What could be wrong and how could I solve the problem?
Bye,
Borut

I'm on radio 1.38.00.11, and I have the same problem too... sometimes it does not even get any signal after trying to "find network". When I disable the phone and enable it again (flight mode and back) it will get full signal, I'm at the same spot for the whole process so its not the reception of the location.
Any idea?

I sent also an E-mail to HTC support team and still waiting an answer.

I got this answer:
Good Afternoon,
?
Unfortunately this can happen sometimes when roaming, especially if the SIM from your network does not have the preferred roaming partners programmed into it.
?
What tends to happen is that as the phone is switched on in the new country, it will automatically search for all networks in range and then systematically attempt to register and connect with all of them one by one.? Sometimes, depending on the speed with which the networks respond to the handset's requests to register, this can take a few minutes, especially if there are many networks in range.? It can also happen as the signal from one network disappears and the phone must begin this process again.
?
One thing I would suggest would be to contact your Operator and ask them for the name of the preferred roaming partner of the country you are travelling to and upon arrival in the country, you can manually select the network to connect to.? this should then tell the phone to keep with that network until it loses signal, but it should automatically return when the signal is found again.
?

Calls disconnected - Issue with mobile?

Hiya
I am continuous issues with my desire HD. Not sure if it's network or there is something wrong with the mobile. The phone just hangs up in the middle of a call and disconnects after sometime. It happens quite a lot. Sometimes it wouldn't make a call. I try to dial a number and it shows grayed out dial pad and then disconnects.
I am currently on Orange network and quite sick of their merging excuse with T-Mobile so wonder if it's network issue or mobile issue. Is there a way of checking what's causing this?
I have been on stock rom previously but flashed last night with Leedroid latest rom but issue is still there.
Thanks

Network problem
Hi.I had same problem with My DHD.Just download Network apk by Philipp Mangelow and switch to GSM only mode.

Hi there,
This sounds like the calls were dropped rather than a ROM or handset issue.
The merger between T-Mobile and Orange is only proceeding at a network level of 2G/GPRS/EDGE at the moment but the 3G integration is in process.
The problem is that due to the merger cells form each network, which have a similar catchment area, may be decommissioned whilst areas which only had network presence from one of the operators are now dealing with twice the traffic. You could call Orange CS and have the techies check this out for you. It may just be that the cell is under-performing due to congestion or routine maintenance but it's best to make sure.

[CM10.1] SIM PIN request when bad reception encountered

Hi everybody, I've been using CM10.1 build of July 3rd since it came out, with overall good satisfaction.
One major issue bothers me and I would like to get rid of it: when I enter a bad 3G reception area, my Defy+ disconnects from the 3g network, and it stays disconnected even if I move back to a good reception site, because it prompts for the SIM PIN and obviously I'm not watching the screen every second.
I dont think this is normal. It should retain the PIN entered at power-on, and restore 3G connectivity as network becomes available again.
I'm on italian TRE network operator, which has commercial agreements with competitors in order to fall back to nationwide roaming in areas where it is not present. Also, it only operates 3G frequencies, while when in roaming the phone should lock into 3G and 2G as well. Maybe this piece of information can help you in helping me.
I'm on mixed GSM/WCDA mixed mode (WCDMA preferred).
I tried to search in other thread but couldn't narrow down an exact asnwer, most of the topics I read dealt with RIL BUG (?).
Thanks

Problems with N900A LTE Signal

Hello everyone: I hope I'm not breaking any rules by posting this, but I'm having annoying problems with my handset since I updated the OS to Lollipop N900AUCUEOC1. My handset is SIM unlocked and use it here in my country Peru, South America. The problem is as follows, it is most of the time with only 3 signal bars of LTE, the handset must outside to get full bars, but the real problem is that sometimes it doesn't get any connection at all (pic attached), most of the time happens right after I disconnect from my house's WIFI, or sometimes, it only connects to H+(4G), I have to dial *#2263# and change it to any option and then, set it back to LTE/GSM to gain access to the LTE Signal, and I do this everytime I lose LTE signal, I must tell the phone to use LTE instead H+ o get the signal back. I think there is a set of numbers somewhere that I can manipulate and tell the phone that LTE signal is available always and stop losing signal. I little story to understand my predicament, when I bought it it I had the same problems, and I took it to a guy who did something to the handset and worked perfectly ever since, he told me he "recalibrated" the signal settings. But after upgrating it to Lollipop, the problems came back. And the guy is no longer where I remember I found him.
Thank you in advance for your help, I really appreciate it.:fingers-crossed:
If you have questions or need more info, I'll be happy to provide it.

Hello,
Try to enter in Settings -> Mobile Networks -> and choose the Prefered Network to the mode you want!
**You're not breaking any rules, you are just asking for help! XDA is exactly for that!**
(I'm using an unofficial and modified CM13 by TEMASEK, so this steps is in AOSP settings app, but I think that is almost the same thing in TouchWiz)
Try this and tell if it works! ^.^
Sorry about my english, I'm brazilian...

Hey, thanks for your reply, but I cannot do what you told me because I don't have that option, I'm running stock ROM and it is not rooted. I canot change the ROM to any other ca use of my locked bootloader . Don't worry, I'm peruvian, English is not my native tongue.

Poor mobile reception

Hi,
Anyone else experiencing poor mobile reception on their OP5? Running stock, rooted, but reception always seems to be poor and whoever is on the call says i keep breaking up.
Reception bars are nearly always 3 or more, but I'm wondering if these are showing a false reading.
I've done *#*#4636#*#* and selected LTE/UMTS auto PRL and European band, but nothing improves.
I've tried a few network providers, but same issues.
Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks

I have the same issue. The oneplus 5 has a very weak modem. Theres nothing u can do. I suggest downgrading the plan you have. I myself went with Mintsim. They're very cheap. The signal itself has to be strong in your area because the phone wont pick up the slack. The bars are just telling you that you have a good connection to the tower in your area.
