Phone connected but no internet

Hi everyone,
i am having a SM-G900F (it is t-mobile). It is on stock lollipop LRX21T.G900FXXU1BNL9 with modem and bootloader BOB7 (which i flashed a week ago).
I have problems since the last 2-3 days, my phone is connected to a working WiFi or mobile data and everything seems alright, but it isn't, i don't have any internet access. I have to turn of WiFi or mobile data and turn it on and eventually it starts working again :S
Does anyone has an idea what the problem may cause and how should i fix it? Thanks in advance
EDIT: Also if i take out the battery of my phone and turn it on afterwards, it turns off but with a black screen, and i get a "System fc", and i have to try to turn it on a few times to get it work like it should, but if i turn off the phone without taking out the battery it turns on just fine everytime
First thing Id try is clearing CACHE from Recovery
Did you factory reset after updating to Lollipop from KK? It is needed to get rid of left over bugs / files from KK

When i bought the phone (used) it already had lollipop on it. I tried clearing cache+dalvik cache but still the same, but didn't tried a factory reset, right now i am downloading a custom rom, will wipe everything and see what happens after that.
Some strange thing that i noticed is, that the internet now won't work for any app escept for viber, on viber it works without problems
Right now i have flashed another ROM with wipe-ing everything before and i have still problems with the internet :S
i don't know what do to now :/
EDIT: Data is working, but wifi connects but no internet :/
EDIT2: I've found out what the problem is, it wasn't my phone, it was some weird virus which changed my routers DNS settings

SM-T530 Lollipop update problems

Hey guys,
My wifes Tab 4 recently did the OTA update to Lollipop (5.0.1) and has been having a problem ever since. After being in use for a few minutes after the update it suddenly locked up and rebooted itself. Thought nothing of it at first, but then it did it again, and now randomly reboots all the time, sometimes after only a minute of use. I've tried clearing the cache partition and factory reset, neither gave any improvement. Then i figured maybe the OTA download was the probblem so i flashed it back to Kitkat using Odin and all worked fine again for a few days. I turned off the OTA update checke and she was perfectly happy with it again.......
......until it downloaded the update all over again.
Before allowing it to update again i connected it to the PC and did the update via Kies instead. All seemed to be fine for about 5 minutes and then started rebooting. Again, cleared cache and factory reset. Again no improvement.
Then tried flashing the update via Odin again. Still no improvement.
I'm drawing a blank on this one. I've tried everything I can think of and still not been able to solve this one. The only thing i've been able to figure out so far is that for whatever reason it doesn'T randomly reboot if its connected to the PC via USB...............
Anyone got any ideas how to sort this?? Samsung have offered to take it in for repair and I'Ve been offered a refund from the retailer, but I'd rather avoid those options if possible.
Thanks!
I have the same problem and nobody Knows. I will back to kitkat. let me know if you fixed. sorry for my english im cuban.

Note 3 lolipop problem

Hi to everyone,
I have some problems with my SM-N9005 I will explain everything from beginning what I did so you can have a clear picture. I had stock 4.4.2 rom when I bought my phone but I am a app freak so I had to do root actually my friend did it using odin because I am not so good with android knowledge. That was almost 2 years ago and with 4.4.2 I had no problems. Using camera, recording, wifi everything worked great. I have fastest class San Disk 64 GB memory card and I set camera video to save directly on it and it worked without any problems. This past month my phone started to be slow because of 2 years junk and using so I decided to put latest custom rom (I think 5.1.x something) but my friend was afraid if we dont put good rom that we will brick my phone so he told me to do a reset factory defaults and the phone will be unrooted and then go to software update option and update it to 5.0. I couldn't do that because it reported error phone changed or something like it was rooted but it was not. Lucky for me before root we did cwm backup of my phone so my friend restored backup and then we tried again software update again but still same error phone is changed (I was hundred precent sure that phone is unrooted but still no luck). Then we decided to install Kies and do firmware upgrade from options tab and it worked. It was 1.3 Gb update and kies showed that it is 5.0 and last firmware version for note 3. So I am using phone for few days now but I noticed few problems. Everytime I restart phone it forgets all wifi passwords and also when I come home I meen when I change ruter same story. Today I wanted to talk a picture and when I took a picture and go to gallery to see it (from camera up left corner see last image) phone restarted and when I wanted to record a video it said recording failed and then it restarts every time.Everything else is working great, phone is fast,maybe battery drains faster than on 4.4.2 but it is not a big problem for me. Sorry for my english if I have some mistakes. Can you help me please with these 2 issues?
??
Anyone please?
Did you try with a factory reset ?https://www.androidpit.com/factory-reset-note-3
You could possibly try flashing the stock android 5.0 with odin, that should be the best way of making sure everything is installed properly unless anyone thinks that would be a bad idea.

I tried factory reset and same story, ok I will try with odin I will go to see my friend in few days and then I will post results
So I solved it by:
Using Odin 3.11.1
I have already tried Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flashed the latest stock Lolipop or older lollipop with ODin and nothing solved the problem.
So I tried to flash the latest stock lolipop with Odin and marking checked (Auto Reboot , F. Reset Time , Phone EFS clear, Phone Bootloader update).
I suspect that the Phone EFS clear did the trick. It's function is related to the modem and radio of the phone. And clearly the modem has a problem here.
I hope this will help anybody out there having this issue.
This problem happened after trying to flash lollipop using FlashFire app to reserve the root that I had in my previos Android KK 4.4.2.

SM-N910G Stock - Contently freezing, restarting to download mode and data lose

Hey all,
I found few similar threads, but none of the solutions worked for me. So here's my situation
Problem : N910G Singapore Starhub, used for more than 1 and half years without major issues. Suddenly started to randomly freeze and then restart.
Got worse very quickly. Started to get freezed at Samsung logo. Most of the time had to remove the battery to re-try booting.
What I've done so far:
Cache cleared -> Didn't work
Factory reset -> Was ok with less lag (Freezing) for sometime, then same again
Installed TWRP. Flashed PIT file. Following an XDA post, flashed Samsung stock Android 6 released to India -> Was ok for couple days, was better than 5.1 in terms of responsiveness and battery life. After few days, again freeze. restart
Flashed with stock 5.1 released for the correct region. -> freezing, restarts. Wifi passwords are not getting saved (Have to re-enter upon restart). Restarts end up in download mode. very rarely passes the Samsung logo
Rooted and tried to change build prop ro.securestorage.support (or something similar) and see whether passwords are getting saved -> Still passwords are not getting saved. /efs is accessible.
Now the device never boots properly. Some apps are missing after restarts. Always ends up in download mode. Recovery is working fine though.
You guys have any idea what else I should try before throwing this away?
Thanks in advance.

If you know how, I'd use Odin to restore the factory image if you're running the factory software. Performing a hard reset is always the best way to go, however if you're still having problems then I'd download the latest firmware from Samsung's firmware site and then Odin.

Thanks for the reply Android Ninja. As the last resort, I did flash the correct stock firmware which I downloaded from Sammobile. But it didn't really fix the issue. So should I unroot and use Kies instead? Because I can't find a way to download the fireware from Samsung, if that's what u meant. thanks

N910F bricked after the last update ! Help

I updated OTA my Note 4 n910f to the latest built. It was something about Samsung Cloud. Since then i haven't been able to use my phone for even a minute. It keeps rebooting every 1 minute. When plugged in it reboots but for like every 3 minutes. And it doesn't charge, my battery was 66% when i plugged it on AC, and it keeps going down like 64% plugged it. I don't know if any of you had this issue before or are having now but i cant use my phone for 2 days now. I tried to clear cache data via recovery, also wiped storage, factory reset, wiped everything but no luck. Where is my problem, is my battery dead or software issue. I didn't have this before the last update. Help !

Flash stock firmware via odin and do a factory reset after flashing firmware.hopefully it should fix the problem. Go to (www.sammobiles.com/firmwares) choose your model number and download latest firmware.
Already did that, no luck. !

Try flashing lollipop .
If the problem still persists after lollipop, then go to a service centre .
If they repair it ,well-n-good but if they don't then try rooting your device and then change the kernel.
