What's with this phone and intermittent network connectivity issues? Network signal keeps coming and going.
Phone is on Omni ROM Nougat.
Further information can be seen in attached pic.
I tried changing baseband but it didn't work. It's stuck at ATHENE_LATAM_CUST.
I put scotch tape on the back of the SIM to provide better contact with the pins but didn't work.
Anything else I could try?

Hi
This past Saturday, the 3G signal strength in my area was pretty weak due to heavy rains and thunderstorm. So I connected the CRC9 3G antenna to my SGS 2 that I used with my 3G modem. Later on I disconnected the antenna and then I found out the phone was not receiving any signals. On further investigation found out that if I went outside the phone was receivng signals but juts a bar or two at max. Tried the same sim in my friends SGS2 and it was receiving full signals.
After this I tried flashing different roms, kernels, modems etc but to no avail, the situation did not improve. Now the only way I can receive signal in my phone is by connecting a thin copper wire to the hole of the CRC9 connector at the back of the phone.
The phone was purchasded in UK from CPW, hence does not carry local Indian warranty.
So whats the best thing to do? Please help me.
Tried factory reset?
Yep tried hard factory reset.
Tried all possible modems vers, things work a bit better with KF2.
so guys can anyone help me?
Would you be able to put a different networks sim in, to see it it is just the network being faulty, or a hardware problem. Maybe if you have a different phone you you can see how good the signal is in that and compare the two, to see if it is again hardware or networks.
If it is hardware, there is really only a couple of things to do, take it to a phone repair shop, or get in contact with Samsung and pay them to fix it. I know that a couple of weeks ago in the uk, I started getting only 2g connectivity and it kind of scared me a bit, thinking I had damaged my brand new phone. It turned out the networks 3g was down in my area for a couple of days.
If I have helped, please hit the thanks button (please) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I had the same problem, I put in a different sim and it worked fine, for some reason it hated the orange network in the uk, but seemed to work well on o2.
I've been having a problem on CM-based roms with my sim card. It often loses signal, disconnects and reconnects back again after a few seconds. I got the latest modem and bootloader. I also have the recommended APN-settings for my carrier. Does anyone know how I can fix this issue or maybe what causes it?
Hello, im going straight to the point, i use my zenfone 5 (t00j) as a gps device all teh time, i ride a motorcycle all the time, unfortunally on a highway the phone flew out of the holder, got ran over a bunch of times by passing cars, but i noticed it was still alive, the volume buttons would make the bip sound when it reachs maximum volume ( screen wouldnt even light up so that was teh only indication). so i went on ebay and bought a bunch of parts. ok now the issue:
I cant get network signal, but i do have GPS and WIFI working flawlessly, what i wanna know is, does the wifi shares the same antenna? by that i mean that RF cable that connects the charging board to motherboard? is that the antenna for the network? it looks good dont show signs of damage but im at a lost, Sim2 was fisically disconected when i pick the phone up, and the SDcard was gone aswell, those were the main impact areas.
Can it be software bug or hardware? i've changed the sim card slots aswell and a factory reset
SMMI test shows only sim card slots fail and modem bus (wich i think its 3g?) wich would make sense not to work since cant get any signal, everything else pass's
Any help, any info on how that works? sim card slots send the info somewhere, where? what reads those signals?
thanks and if u know of somewhere more apropriate, i know this forum is more of a software related thing, but its active and i may get relevant info around here

respectufully, thats a whole bunch of nothing of an answer, ofc if i buy a new phone it will be solved lol, i have a new phone already, but i want to fix this one, hence my questions above, wanna try and solve it, since its only the network having issues, i might just use it as a dedicated gps/multimedia device since i fixed that much already.
the RF cable, thats the network antenna? what chip reads those signals?
Hello there, as topic says, my one plus 5 lost sim card and wifi connectivity.
OS:
Android version 9
OxygenOS version 9.0.3
I have tried:
Unplug / plug phone and sim etc multiple times ( both simcard slots)
Soft / Hard reset
Bluetooth seems to be working, not sure tho
Reseting all network setups thingy
Dialing *#06 doenst show me any MEID/IMEI code
Sim card is ok, working on my Iphone 4
Found couple threads about some modem firmware thingy, idk.
I havent dropped phone to water or anything, just normal outside humidity if something.
Everything else working normaly exept random lags while trying to figure wlan working. I still have warranty on so I guess ill send phone back there before trying any rooting this? Imo this seems like software issue.
Or any advice what I should try?
Hi everyone, my H870 has seemingly given up on me out of the blue since about two days ago and refuses to connect to mobile networks, or even to search for them for that matter (trying to manually search for networks give back an error). I'm afraid the issue might be hardware-related which would be a shame as the phone is otherwise fine. I've tried changing ROMs (going from and old AEX AOSP to LineageOS, with full wipe) as well as kernels (Melina reborn for AOSP), to no avail.
Switching sim cards also didn't change anything, the sim is detected and it asks for PIN but then no network, which leads me to think it's a radio chip issue. Activating radio in the *#*#4636#*#* menu doesn't prompt the usual restart, and auto-untoggles if i go into another app then come back to it... IMEI is fine and not corrupted.
I'm really close to giving up on this phone and buying another one, but I thought maybe you guys would have another idea of something to try that could work before I do that. Couldn't find any similar threads on that matter but please point me in the right direction if this issue has popped up before !
Thank you in advance for your help.
EDIT : Flashed original firmware (H87030a_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0829.kdz), to no avail... I believe this is the end of the road for this phone and judging by the lack of answers you guys do as well haha
H873, should not have reset. Now i dont know too
