Hi guys, I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and the NFC is not working at all!
When I got my device it was running stock 4.3 Jellybean and the NFC was working perfectly. I then updated to 4.4.2 KitKat using the unofficial polish rom, after installing this the NFC stopped working. Because I updated the phone before the official UK KitKat was released i couldn't downgrade to 4.3 to try and get NFC working again(cant downgrade because of bootloaders . I have since installed the stock UK 4.4.2 H3G KitKat rom and this issue has still not been resolved. I have tried numerous batteries (the battery is the nfc aerial) and yes I have double checked to see if the NFC was turned on :laugh: but its greyed out and i cant do anything with it. Any help would be much appreciated
Anyone? I really need this issue resolved :crying:
Try another battery maybe as the nfc antenna is in the battery I believe.

I have tried multiple genuine samsung batteries
Tried DATA wipe and cache clean
Hi,
I have exatly same problem .
I had Nigerian rom i changed to India for 4.4.2 and bam no NFC. Changed again to Nigerian 4.4.2 still no NFC .
Tried another stock battery .
Data wipe / ccahe reset . all solutions.
I am practically lost . How hard can it be to get one NFC working .
The other possibility is I ordered the replacement battery from US . May be the replacement battery caused some problem ?
In any case desperately searching answers as normally the NFC is draining 20 % of my daily use in battery drain

Changed rom rooted unrooted. wiped factory rest. different battery , different covers tried all.
May be something is not working in 4.4.2
No issue with mine on KK. Maybe hardware issue.

some users report that it worked (i doubt since efs partition is not included in the firmware)
try it, nothing to lose.
I9500 sold in Qatar are coming from UAE (if not mistaken). to be sure connect to Kies and see what are the last (3 letters) under phone firmware. i think it is (XSG).

Hey guys , I've already searched the boards for this and there were a few people posting about this issue aswell but they've stopped posting for about a week now...
I am having an i9500 (octa core version) and running United Arab Emirates 2013 June 4.2.2 I9500XXUBMEA I9500OJVBMEA firmware (stock , no root) , frequently when the phone is locked it will shut down on it's own and I have to keep the power button held a bit longer than usual for it to start (like 20 seconds) , I do not want to root it because the company I bought it from is not that...good....so I am very afraid of sending it to their service department , please , any info/suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Hey mate ! Thanks for the reply , I tried reseting to factory settings , wiping cache and flashing other firmwares , different firmwares cause different issues like screen freezes , crashes etc. This one just makes the s4 turn off sometimes while being locked.
It's not from any apps as long as it's nothing stock related ( I do use S Health and the likes )

What is the purpose of installing a firmware and then resetting the device ? I've never reset after I flashed a firmware I think
I have found a way to reproduce this!
It happens MOSTLY when I unplug it from the usb cord and lock it (by pressing the button ) after leaving it locked for 5 minutes 'ish
Any help guys ? please , I don't want to have to send it to the shop where they'll keep it for 2-3 weeks...
EDIT : Also I wanted to ask , did I void my warranty by flashing firmwares for the i9500 from sammobile.com ? (I did no rooting , only stock firmwares)

B4 this new update u must be having a old update and after u flashing a new update also all the data remains same in the phone and that the main reason you are having this issue
If u reset the device all the file folders apps will be reset to work with new update u will not regret if u do this trust me
And don't worry if u have only flashed stock firmware u are safe with warranty

I don't know ! I didn't have time to test it , I bought it from the store and the update notification was up to asking to be installed when I got home so I went ahead and updated it....I don't even know what my original software firmware was =/
I was able to re-create it and uploaded to youtube , here's a quick vid of it in action

I had the similar issue on my note 2 after installing a MIUI rom which was posted and in that case the moment i click LOCK button it used to get stuck / powerr off
and the issue was later solved by flashing a rescue firmware.. was something related to kernal which caused that issue
Does not matter which firmware u had b4 u can still flash 2 /3 diffrnt firmware which are stock and do reset after flashing u will get rid of this issue for sure
And if that also does not wrk then there myte be a hardware issue i hope thats not the case
I think I need some help , I've sent it to the service and the guy told me the fact that the phone freezes and reboots itself on it's own a few times a day is "normal" lol , what the hell? He said he'll fix the shutdown issue but the freezing+rebooting will have to be with me until newer firmwares get released

I have the same i9500 running the same Emirates firmware and I'm at 90% percent sure that your battery's serial number starts by "BD.." these batteries are swollen and one of the symptoms of having a defective battery is the random reboot loops like the one's you're having. I happen to have a drfective battery on my i9500 baught from the United Emirates however I live in Tunisia and Samsjng refused to replace it for free saying that the warranty isn't international... So can you tell us what did you do?

My s4 is rooted. The problem is that after some flashing of custom roms my 4g/3g is not working properly . In other words, in all roms above jellybean ( kitkat and lollipop) my LTE and 3G is working only for 1-2 minutes and then my signal drops to zero no signal at all. When i switch to GSM signal comes imidiatelly to full! I have searched a lot in this forum , I have tried many times to change modem , CSC using ODIN ofc, but no succeess so far.. I dont know what else to try or to do differently...I also tried to flash the stock modem but still no success... I would like to add that in 90% of roms that i have tried so far my WIFI , and everything else is working normally ... My only issue is what i had mentioned before...PLZ help me.. I DONT KNOW WHERE TO REFER TO IN THIS SITE...

I think you have a big misconception about what this site it. It's not a helpdesk. It's people helping people and we are not forced to reply.
You have the losing of the signal also on stock Lollipop roms?
Setting APN is not a switch though, you have to put in settings that your 3G/4G service provider uses. Either search for the settings on the Web or ask your 3G/4G service provider for the settings.

I kind of just saw this in the "unread" tab here on xda, so first I would like to apologise for replying without having your device. But, the only thought that comes to mind is a baseband/modem. Not sure if the sgs4 has flashable modems but it would definitely help if you guys did.

I also use a rooted galaxy S4 but model GT-i9500 I have the same problem as you,
can not connect to 3G/4G network with kitkat and lollipop based rom.
All I had to do to fix it is to set the correct APN settings for my 3G/4G network
just make sure that the modem you are using is the same one as your new rom is based on,
I have to do this every time I flash a new rom....
well i dont know but it all seems complicated . I ll try guys !!! Another question to those who have galaxy s4! Is it my misconception or all the roms above custom jellybean make the S4 slower?? Lollipop Kitkat are ok But exept of the Google based( pac-man , cyanogen, paranoid etc..) all the touch wiz roms are slower than a custom jellybean ...

If it always reboots when you battery is low, then it's your battery that needs to be replaced.
not always when battery is low
The reboot problem occurs any time....when the battery is around 30 it switch off n then i hv to charge again to start it
Still sounds like battery voltage fluctuating, hence your issues. Come back once you've tried new battery.
ok thanks...let me check
