Anyone facing signal problems on lollipop .87? - Zenfone 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was just using my phone as usual, and suddenly my 2 sims didn't work.. there's no sim all of sudden.. i tried on and off airplane mode but still no signal... i have to restart then only its back to normal.. how to fix this?
Because sometimes i need to make emergency calls and this just happens. Its bugging me.
Btw, no threads for general q&a? Hate to post a new thread for something minor bug like this..

I had same problem when I updated to .87..
could not find solution..
so reverted back to .60
which is most stable of the lot..
if your bootloader is unlocked & if you don't have screen freeze problem..
there are many good custom rom's..
try one of them..

check your imei *#06# and about phone info
there is a possibility you have null imei and baseband unknown., this is common known bug when upgrade to LL,
if it is confirmed that you got that bug, navigate through the troubleshooting area, there are many threads discussing about it though. thanx.

factory reset? i think it fix many problems, and aeroplane mode in .87 only help in disabling ur signal, if you happened to swithed on aeroplane mode, after you switched it off, you have to reboot to take effect, then you can use ur phone normally again. it is LL bug on aeroplane mode. no fix for that

if you dont plan on going customs, i think better downgrade to KK, KK is pretty decent, didnt have so much problem.

Solution of wifi issue on kitkat 4.4.2

Hi friends. Finally i found a solution for wifi problem. first enter to call screen and dial *#0011# will bring service screen. Press the menu soft key and select wifi. After turn off wifi power saving mode and exit. Thats all. Use your wifi healtly.
Have a nice day
Congrats my friend, but this is not really new
And its not a real solution, because if u disable powersaving Wifi, battery drains super fast without doing anything.
tapatalked by an Echoenian
And it ignores modem issues and all the other WiFi issues that surround KitKat and other ROMs. This is not an actual solution. Also you can turn it off in the menu anyway...
Friends. You said true. I still have same wifi issues. I tried the flash Wifi Fix but that didn't work. Have you got any solution ?
Have you odin flashed the correct baseband (modem)?

Running on wanamlite rom v3.5 and stock repacked kernel by wanamlite..
battery drain seems normal..
I've tried it but it says "Unable to process request"
I'm on Danvdh's 4.4.2 KK latest rom.

Check to see if you still have your imei or not... That's probably the reason, you lost your efs/imei...
If that's the case then if your made a efs backup like you should have,restore it. If not, try flashing stock.

Did you test your sim card and make sure it is ok? Try to out this sim card into another phone and make sure it works? Put another gud sim card into your Note 3 and check if the problem still persist?
Dial *#0011# and check for the RX, TX value? Can you post this screenshot here?
Samsung is really crap with customer service

Here the screenshoot
Anybody please
No Network neither
Hi everyone,
i got almost the same problem. My SM-N9005 was on the Standard TouchWiz Rom (4.3, rooted) when i updated to 4.4.2 via Kies and rooted it again.
Now my Phone shows me signal bars but tells me "Emergency calls only". I still have my IMIE.
I reflashed the stock ROM but that did not fix my problem sadly.
Hope you can help me!
UPDATE:
I reflashed the stock recovery once again and factory reset/wiped the data and now it somehow works again. Maybe that helps
UPDATE 2:
It seems like that was just working for a short moment, now after flashing the X-Note ROM (and Kernel) the "not registered in Network" message comes again though i got like 4 bars. The bars just are random somehow and jump up and down every few seconds.
Another Update:
While charging the phone (via PC or via the original Charger) i get a Message that it stopped charging because the battery temperature is too low. I Hope nothing went physically wrong?
your note 3 seems to be unlocked by SPT box or BST dongle
select wcdma/gsm or 3g/2g in mobile network and your network will connect
hope this helps:fingers-crossed:
Thanks for the reply, but my I bought my note 3 unlocked and new from my carrier and havent changed anything regarding the IMIE.
I was thinking about the modem beeing broke down while i updated to kitkat, and therefore flashing a new one. Any ideas on that?

If everything else fails try to write in Odin (or better yet in Mobile Odin Pro) just the modem - and aim for an older version, something like MI6 (present in MI7 firmware) or MJ1. With Mobile Odin Pro you MUST be on stock recovery and it will work perfectly first time, with normal Odin there are some reports that you might need to write it twice or something like that - search around.

Tried that, had the same problems with the MI6, and with the MJ1 it got stock when i tried to unlock it...I was on the Xnote ROM though, Ill once again will try flashing the stock rom...
did you try another sim card ?
Sadly, the sim card works in my Note 2 without any problems... I think its sth that got physically destroyed somehow. When i plug it into the charger is says "stopped charging battery too cold"

HELP! WiFi Issues

Sorry I'm a noon, don't do all those font sizes and colours and pictures aha but basically... I've been on CyanogenMod for about a year now and have never had WiFi issues. Been using cm12 nightlies for most of this year with no problem however, after updating my nightly the past two days I've been experiencing WiFi Drops happening every min and a half or so. So annoying. I've used Wifix apps etc, no luck. I've reverted to old night lies I used to run without any problems however the problem stays. I've consider flashing back to TouchWiz to see if that helps it but I really don't want to
Can someone please help me. My phone is on contract and my bill is overdue so I won't have mobile data until it's cleared (around June) so if I don't have WiFi, I'm screwed.

Have you tried flashing a new modem? This generally fixes wifi (and sound issues if there are any)
I barely know what a modem is haha but if that's the case, I'll try today.
Here you have a list of modems. Read the topic as it also has some info and the flashing guide.
You need to go to sammobile firmware checker and input your phone model, country and carrier. Then it will show you the correct firmware for your country and carrier. Based on that, download the modem. Make sure you get the latest modem. If you can't find the latest modem on the linked thread, there was another thread with all the latest modems, but I can't seem to find it anymore.

I'm on 5.02 CM12, I downloaded the latest modem for my GT-I9505 which matched the firmware code for a 4.4.2 S4 however still no luck ffs. This is really annoying, i don't know how my WiFi could jist shut off on me like that :/. Looks like I'm going to have to buy myself a new phone then. Can't use my mobile data for a couple months as my carrier has blocked me until I pay off my bill and now with my wifi disconnecting every 2 mins, I basically cannot use the internet. So frustrated.
I've flashed new nightlies, changed baseband versions, factory reset my phone and still no luck. What makes things worse is i cannot see any other threads with people in my postition so help is so minimal :/. Annoyed is an understatement.

Hi mate ,
Try flashing a new modem it never hurts but wifi is kernel control , see what kernel you had before when it was working good ,check if it was changed in the las upgrade... reflash old kernel again or try a different one

Go back to stock firmware if you haven't updated the bootloader.
If it works fine on stock, then re-root your phone and try again with CM12.

Check and see i if power save is on , if so switch it off
Dial *#0011#
This will take you into the Service Mode
Press the left bottom key new menu will show
Select Wifi... Once in the Wifi settings , turn it off...
Do you have to refresh the password? just in case check this
Go to /system
Open the built.prop
search for ro.securestorage.support
If it says true , change to false
Save and reboot
Also if you are skill check the antenna cable inside the phone..maybe is just loose

When I dial that code, the phone does nothing...does the fact that I cannot turn on my mobile data stop me from dialing this code? Also, does the fact that I'm on cm12 and not on touchwiz stop me from using this?
& I have no password on my phone and there was no ro.securestorage.support ... I found this "ro.wifi.channels=" if that helps?

If you updated bootloader then you can't go back to kitkat roms. Only the 5.0 lollipop roms. But Samsung hasn't released the official update in all countries.
If it still doesn't work, even with official firmware, then it might be hardware related. Maybe even your wifi router.

Hi, i'm going to flash lollipop touchwiz onto my phone using this http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/android-5-...-s4-lte-how-manually-install-via-odin-1492230.
Anything i should know/do before doing this?
Did you flash an alternate kernel?
Wifi issues are often kernel related. Not always...but often.

Simple question

Hi guys.
I have a Zenfone 5 A501CG with Lollipop (3.24.40.87_20151222_34) and I rooted the phone.
There are some things which I would like to improve like better battery, better gps signal, louder volume on the speaker and get signal back after I lost it (eg.: I'm in a zone with bad coberture and I lost the signal and then I go to a good spot. To get the signal back I need to reboot my phone or I will stay like airplane mode).
So I'm thinking to install a CFW. I still have warranty of phone (5 months left) but if I have any problems I can get it to stock right?
My question is: what's the best CFW for my phone and how to install it?
Thanks for your attention.
Best regards
if you wanna use cfw, you must unlock bootloader (ubl)
and if you ubl your z5, you phone may caused random freeze screen
my solution is, if you wanna use the best ROM so far, use kitkat 2.22.40.540
or downgrade to 3.24.40.60
it is most stable of the L stable..
it will solve your signal problem..
also you can root & install xposed..
Greenify & auto starts will help you with better battery life..
how to downgrade ? ?
Search this forum..
& if you like KK. 54 is the best

so far there's still no solution of this freezing problem
some people say it's motherboard driver problem
some people say it's dnx and ifwi problem
i really want have dt2w feature but to do that i must ubl my phone first
i have tried every possible way to ubl without freezing but still can't do
so i just back to kitkat because i think kitkat is still the best and most stable fw for zenfone 5

no this is a bootloader fault and nobody can fix this but you can try it and when you have freez lock bootlodaer and go baCK TO STOCK not erveryone have frezz
I think I will keep the FW I have and wait. Maybe in a near future the booloader works flawless. Thanks for your help

If you have relock your bootloader, go to bootloader n check your ifwi, if your ifwi isn't 59.a1 your z5 won't freeze anymore

I think I will keep the FW I have and wait. Maybe in a near future the booloader works flawless. Thanks for your help

no.. there will be no solution..
we have known about this issue for almost 2yrs now..
till now there is no solution..
People have tried on their own.. without any support from asus.. but no results..
and as far as I know asus has not offered any solution nor support..
but funny thing is not everyone is affected by this..
you will have to unlock your bootloader to check if you are one of the LUCKY ones..
you can always relock if you are one of us..
yes I am among the unlucky ones..

But my doubt is if I have the random freezes it bricks the phone or not? If not I can return to stock right?

random freezing & phone brick are two different things..
& yes you can return to stock anytime you want..
before doing anything thing backup your data..
while on stock you will have to use an app to backup..
I use titanium Backup pro..
of course I have a rooted phone..
I suggest
1. root your phone
2. do a thorough backup..
3. saperately.. backup your contacts, SMS, call log..
4. move all backups to memory card..
5. move all your data from internal to external memory..
6. unlock your bootloader..
7. use your phone for 2 - 3 days..
if you have random freezing..
lock your bootloader.. & decide your next move..
for root, backup, bootloader unlock search XDA.. everything is already there..

Problem with my signal after i flashed 8.1 (Oreo)

Hi!
I have rooted my phone, and i have flashed Oreo RR and everything is working, BUT...when i have 4G (LTE) my signal drops down and suddenly i dont have a signal. Even if i dont have 4G on my signal drops.
But if a am on 2G network my signal is full and no drops whatsoever.
I have tried to go back and flash 7.1 But same problem there.
So my question, is it someting wrong with my phone? Because i remember that i didnt have these kind of issue before i flashed a ROM.

Just take efs backup so that if anything goes wrong it may help in future,
Restore the persist backup as I had shown in this thread

Okk,then I have no idea about your problem.
Sorry brother
Any one found a fix for this? I also have random signal drops even after some tweaking in the mobile data settings. This doesn't happen on stock or other nougat roms. I really want to run Oreo on my phone
EDIT: I still have 4g+ when my signal drops but for a few seconds people cant seem to reach me because of the signal drop

It's a bug in Oreo, there is no fix.

Ok, thank you for answering! Finally a clear answer. Guess people just live with it
You have to restore full nougat stock image.....and then if you wanna go oreo then before doing that you have to backup EFS partition....install then Only Pixel Experience pr Lineage custom roms....if needed after iflashing custom roms restore only efs partition from nougat into oreo...that should do the trick

yes bro 4G single drops Oreo rom...?
I have to say that after flashing any of the 8.1 roms it is a crap shoot whether I get any voice signal (4G) at all when I reboot. I kinda wish I never would have updated to any of these 8.1 roms. I know there was warnings when I first bought the phone about saving your EFS and other aspects of your stock rom and I did do that. But man,,I dont know if it was that the devs just didnt know or what,,,but I would have rather stayed on Nougat and not have to worry if my phone signal will come back after a reboot. And it happens with every 8.1 rom at some point and trust me those out there saying "well it never happened to me, give it time, it will LOL. Not complaining, we all signed up for this when we tinker with the phones like we do, but if I had known it would be like this then i would have stayed stock.

What if I used a stock debloated franco28 rom? Would that work the same way? Or do I really need to go back to full stock ?

Yeah same.. I just wish I could go back to stock with OTA support that wouldn't brick my phone This phone is a pain in the butt compared to other going back to full stock with OTA support TBH

Would a custom Oreo ROM still boot with a stock Nougat EFS partition?

Signal bars seems to be an issue with most Oreo ROMs I've tried (Lineage, PixelExperience, Ressurection, AOSPExtended, MSM). I've even tried flashing my backed up Persist/EFS. However I've noticed that my phone is still reachable and can make calls even when it shows the "No Service" message. As soon as it does the signal bars get updated so not sure if this is not just a UI glitch.

Ok just flashed my pre-Oreo EFS and persist backup and it still works. Didn't notice any issues or improvement though.

i believe it's an UI issue, i mean my signal bar drops every 3 minutes and changes from 4G to 3G all the time but the internet works very fast like stock
hello, friends. Specially those who are worried about the so many problems with signal moto g5 users face. Im here asking for help. i have a moto g5 (cedric) i was working almost fine with oreo stock. i say almost because some times when i lost signal it didnt recover like any other phone woud, i had to reboot. now from almost a week ago i had lost signal and now i only have 4g. no 3G and no 2G, so no voice calls going out nor incoming ones. i ve done hard resets, flashing stock 7.0 and going back to stock 8.1 and nothing. on saw 3g for a little moment coming back to oreo. i also flashed carbon rom wich is android 9.0 to see if a custom rom helped but it didnt. i only have internet now and sms. and this is very frustrating. ive checked persist folder and everything is correct there. i have my imei right, this phone is like new but not being able to call is like not having a phone at all. also why i have to reboot to recover missing signal? is just a pain. this moto phones are really problematic when it comes to Signal management.
things to consider too: im currently on stock oreo, just rooted to be able to check if persist folder was correct and to backup efs folder. also my operator uses 900mhz band as 2g and 3g wich is an european frecuency not common in latin america. maybe that has something to do with problems im facing. the rom has cedric_latam_cust as the baseband. can anyone help me find one frome europe? im wondering if flashing one from there could help. the weird thing is that it was working before with that baseband.
so many people losing 4g, i could be glad if that was my case and had 2g and 3g only with full internet and calling capabilities.
im sorry i know it is a little bit too much information. but i really need the help
