Hi, i'm from Canada, PQ, Montreal and another mate in this forum from Canada, Vancouver is having the same problem.
For the first 10-20secs after the X1i has been booted succesfully. We get the G status icon(GPRS signal) in the corner and get 2-3bars of signal, during these times, we can call/text or receive calls. After this, the G signal will be replaced by E signal (Edge), this is when i cannot make any calls nor receive any calls nor send any message. I tried this while i was in the streets in a open sky place. I tried my friend's phone and i had FULL SIGNAL (its an nokia 5800 xpress) , i tried my other phone, nokia n95 8gb, i get sky rocketing signal as well.
So the only way to call me, is to keep on trying , hoping i get GPRS status. I have tested my mom's sim card prepaid , to see if it relates to 3G internet or something , still no luck. Anyone from canada having problems?? I'm with rogers. They use 850mhz/1850mhz , i have disabled HSPDA and seletected these two bands, still no luck .... I cannot update the radio rom because its locked ....
Please help =(
perhaps we might have to unlock the phone with Fido to use voice calls on edge? i'm having the same problem. ;(
Perhaps you have to call fido to disable EDGE and use GPRS only ... i'm gonna have to refund my x1 =(
Initially, Fido worked basically with 1900MHz but since the acquisition of Fido by Rogers in 2004, Rogers integrated the networks extending coverage thru 850MHz...
Better get the X1a or change provider
I live in sweden and I also have problem with my signal. it just disapears from time to time.
Same problem here on the other side of the world; in Abu Dhabi. Sometime the signal is completely lost!

is it possible to disable Edge?? THe "E" symbol only indicate edge reception but we are not technically connected to it. Can i actually ask them to cut Edge reception totally?
I only have the voice plan in the first place.
Hello, thank you in advance for whatever help you can give me. I purchased the AT&T galaxy s4 and I am trying to use it in Colombia with my provider Tigo which runs on 1900mhz but I have problems connecting to the internet.
This is my second galaxy s4, the first one I had I opened the AWS bands, selected WCDMA/GSM Mode Only on the service menu and my internet was working just fine. Unfortunately I lost my first phone and bought another one, and went through the same procedures but my mobile data is not working for the most part while it is connected to HSPAP.
If I select GSM only on the srvice menu then it navigates, but at 2G speeds. What seems strange is that I am getting great signal and when I go to about device/status, it shows it is connected to hspap, and gprs, but I dont have an internet connection except at a couple of places, for some reason when I am in my house it works (wifi off), but when I leave my house it doesnt work.
If you have had a similar problem an were able to figure it out I will appreciate any thoughts you may have. It is frustrating having this phone and not being able to use the internet.
Thank you.
my phone cannot connect to a 3g networks .. first it find just 2 operators. its Called cellcom and Orange.
anyways the signal is 2g and it cause to my internet to barely work and at the top right of the device i can see a small G letter (from what ive heard it should be H+) i think its because of this 2g mode. when I disable the automatic mode it instantly searching and finding only 2g.
can someone help me with this problem is it because of the rom or what?
Dear forum members!
1) I got S5 G900F Model with lollipop installed from my friend.
2) He give it to me because it will not receive WCDMA Signals at all. When it switches to WCDMA it will not capable to make voice calls and notification panel shows Emergency Calls Only.
3)It's fully functionalwith GSM Calls and EDGE data
It had G900FXXU1BOH4 Firmware !!!
Then i downgraded it to KitKat firmware version G900FXXU1ANE2_G900FODD1AND2
Now it works with GSM Calls, EDGE and with WCDMA But Only Calls in WCDMA mode.
It will get H+ Indication for few seconds but Never receives data. Browser shows up DNS Lookup error. But SIM is fully functional
So any Experts here to guide me right path???
Because i think it's messed with MODEM firmware or something.
I installed one UI 2.0 at my SM-G975F/DS All apps are working perfectly but when I turn off wifi or out of coverage wifi I loss GSM band network also. It could not enroll the GSM network. I use Vodafone 4.5G cellular line in Turkey. Should I turn back to Official Samsung Android 9.0 rom or there is another solution to fix this problem?
Wi-Fi calling works fine, but I don't have access to Wi-Fi at all times, and that's why I have a cellphone. I am just getting very frustrated because I get job related calls and if I'm not connected to Wi-Fi, I miss the call. Please help. LTE doesnt connect if there is no wifi. Actually I dont see LTE logo on the screen but when I start call on cellular line top of signal bars flashing green dot color.
I just noticed that I am talking on "VOWIFI" only so LTE mobile network is not working.
What could be the reason of loss network? It happens after installed Android 10
