Hello.. I have a brand new J5 Pro and it has a really bad reception I dont know why, I mean I get full signal with worse and a lot older phones (I got lots of them and all of them get full 4g coverage) while in the brand new J5 Pro Im barelly getting 2 LTE bars.. I dont know if its the modem or a hardware issue but i can't issue a refund or warranty exchange because I already broke KNOX with custom roms.. but the signal doesn't change and I can't flash modems of my region (Telcel, Mexico)
Anyone can help me on this?

Hi There, im currently bought an D800 in China, and i recently notice that D800 will not be able to get 4g signal in UK, because of the 4g freqency it support is different between US and UK, i may stupid, but can i flash D802's baseband in order to get 4g signal? or i will never get 4g signal unless i change my mobile?
No you will fall in bootloop.

I have a SM-N910H, I got it due to fact I didn't want my phone locked down. I currently use AT&T but there is no LTE does anyone know if hardware will support flashing a different baseband?
Got same problem mate , i got SM-910K from korea and i live in uk , phone work fine but i got battery drain , i can go with 3 hours of screen on time,with is very bad,i think we got different baseband radios we got phones from another country and they keep searching for that radios ,
I recently switched from an iphone 4s to the new galaxy s5 and the side by side comparrison for signal is terrible ( same network with rogers) my old iphone never had a problem and the s5 is ****e! i have taken the s5 off searching for the lte network because i dont have it where i live with no improvements. is there anything internal i can do or get done to the phone to improve signal? Rogers has absolutely no answers for me!
thanks in advance
I don't think it's because it is s5 necessarily ) I have full all the time with 3g and 2 lines all the time with 4g/lte
Maybe u have aluminium case? Or give it a try with software update... Flash newer bootloader and radio... Or factory reset

So I picked up a Note 4 model SM-N910C which is the exynos octacore WITH LTE. I am using it with Tmobile USA in Chicago. I get horrible horrible LTE signal. At my apartment I get .53 dl and 3-4 Upld.
When I first got it I went to about phone and it had arab emirates firmware lollipop. Ive tried at least 2 others and still get crap signal. i had a similar issue with a phone before and I fixed the issue by getting into a secret menu and messing with the lte and prl settings. This phone will not let me do that though. Do I need to flash a different radio? What can I do? I am doing the KIES recovery/reset as I type.
I'm facing the same problem here. I have a SM-N910C from mexico but the original carrier, Telcel, didn't provide android 5.1.1 so I flashed a rom from another country. The problem is that now my signal is really bad, when I'm lucky I get two bars but most of the time is just one or none. I can still receive and make calls outdoors but I loose service as well as data almost inside any building. I was wondering if I can solve that with some configuration or reflashing the radio but I'm not sure.
Could please anyone provide some help and guidance?
Thanks!!
I got the us version x727. Currently running lineage was on .21 I believe when I unlocked and flashed. ( flashing didn't make reception better or worse)
I seem to drop calls way more frequently compared to nexus 6 , nexus 5 and samsung note 3 all on at&t / cricket.
changing preferred network settings seem to not effect my dropping. I am using the stock case and screen protector.
Its very frustrating as I am a truck driver and rely on this device to be used as an actual phone.
I would have returned this but I bought on amazon and changed there cell phone policy to only exchange.
Thanks for everyone's help
I also have poor reception with AT&T in Mexico, currently running Android 7 AICP rom but I remember stock rom was better in the reception
