[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devil1978:
but the question is what is the error?

i think if the antenna is faulty i can't get a connection to the data transfer and the internet. but this is working.

i have only a call problem.

can it be that a modem file is corrupt?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
You said you tried different modems. And as you wiped and flashed back to full stock firmware (I assume original?), and the problem remains >> hardware fault
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devil1978:
Yes i have a another modem file.

but where can i download more different modem files or a 3-part firmware to flash?

i need a german modem or firmware file.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Search the forums....

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devil1978:
Thank you very much.

Now i will flash a modem file and if this will not work, i try to flash a 3-part firmware. And if this doesn't work i will send the s3 back to the samsung service center.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Let is know how you go. Follow Intratech guide exactly and you can't go wrong.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musti19:
i had the same. you can try to reset your phone via settings
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devil1978:
I doubt that this a hardware error.

Reason 1: speaker and microphone are working.

Reason 2: mobile data sending and receiving is working.

(if this is an error with the antenna i think i can't receive and send mobile data)

Reason 3: i have always a good signal.

i have only a problem with calling. and this with 3 other tested simcards.

after the ending of a call it comes for 2-5 seconds the message that i have currently no signal.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marrossko:
I have the same problem. I had my phone for couple of hours when this problem occur. It happened in middle of talk. I don't think that this is the problem with HW as I tested microphone (I made test recordings) and speaker works fine as well. But when I make a call there is no dialing tone, speaker is silent. It is ringing on other site (so it is not a problem with antenna) but when the call is pick up they can't hear me nor I can't hear them. I did not rooted my phone or installed any additional SW. But I did performed factory reset. But with no luck! My firmware is XXALE8 but I wonder if reinstalling to XXALF2 would help (the first one is Asian/Indian firmware and second is European/English) Can this solve the problem, as technically both are same version?:confused:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devil1978:
Hi Marrossko.

DId you solve the problem by flashing the XXALF2 or not?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zabalba:
I would like to add I'm having a similar problem. I don't think it's hardware related. I've had this both happen on Omega and Foxhound Rom.

Maybe it's the base.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhiteHartMart:
Anyone found a solution to this??

My phone was running Omega 5.2 perfectly for days, I then 'defrosted' my Email app and then during my next call I suddenly lost all signal momentarily - since then I have a great data connection but just can't hear anyone during calls???

I'e reflashed the stock firmware but still no change?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Look,

If you reflashed complete, unrooted, original stock firmware (ie. Out of the box), and you still have a problem, stop stuffing about and return the device for warranty repair.

Don't forget to ensure your device has no evidence of root apps and that Flash Counter = 0.

Done
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhiteHartMart:
Look,

I have arranged return but before I'm without a phone for a week or more I though I'd investigate if there is a fix!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
You asked questions and you got a solution. If you read the thread, those with similar problems have found none.

In your case, if you have done as I posted, and the problem still remains, then it is a hardware problem. Pretty simple really. ;)

Sorry you didn't like the solution :rolleyes: , but an exchange shouldn't be a "week or more" should it (only repair). If they refuse, insist.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ronneman:
I have also the same problem with the original firmware. No root or custom roms. As soon as you / 2nd person picks up the call, the sound and mic are dead. Also sometimes I get disconnected from the network when these 'failed' calls finish. The phone says it is in airport mode when you try to make a new call during that period. The icon doesn't display for airport mode. This is just for a few seconds and then reconnects to the normal network again.

Factory reset didn't work so I am going to contact the store to send it back under warranty.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WhiteHartMart:
The solution was ok, the tone in which it was supplied not so ;-)

A return will take about a week for me as the phone has to be posted back and a new one forwarded to me. My provider has agreed for a new replacement but any delay is frustrating that's all :-(

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
Apologise if you felt "the tone" was a little short. Not intended that way.

I know how you feel. Had a microphone problem on my SGS2 and was without it for three months (due to circumstances). Ended up having to buy another. Wasn't the missus happy when she got the repaired SGS2 :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Funzy32:

I went into wireless&Networks > More Settings > Mobile Networks > Network Providers. Let it do its thing and then selected at&t since I'm in the states and boom it worked. Hope this helps.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dashisiong:
Thanks.

I nearly going to service center but this solution works!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dashisiong:
Too bad it only work for few calls and the problem are back again.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dashisiong:
If there is no answer then i think it is time for me to go to the samsung Service center later....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apothis:
Can anyone who had this problem confirm that getting the phone replaced solves it? I'm having the same thing, can place and recieve calls, but cannot hear anything, and the other party cant hear either. Often immediately after ending the call, the cell network shows no connected for a few seconds.

I'm in a fairly weak signal area, but my older S2 worked fine most of the time, and if the signal wasnt strong enough for a call, then it just wouldnt make the call, rather than making it, and never being able to hear.

If I switch off the wifi, then I can use cell data services (only GPRS as thats all thats available here) at the same time as the calls arent working, and SMS sending and recieving also works fine.

Using stock everything (LF2 upgraded through kies) never been rooted or had a custom rom.

Going to speak to vodafone (uk) tomorrow, to try for an exchange, just wanted to see if anyone else who's had this problem had it resolved by an exchange.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kelevra7:
Sorry to res an old thread.

Sorry to res an old thread but did you manage to find a solution? Did exchanging the handset work after all? I only ask because I am also with vodafone uk except I rooted it so I am worried that they will refuse on grounds of having broken my phone's warranty. :crying:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Make a Nandroid backup

Use TriangleAway

Flash your original Rom through Odin or follow the unroot guide

Take it to a service center

Get replacement

Flash a kernel with CWM

Restore Nandroid backup

However I'd recommend trying a non-UK modem first, I've had very good experience with the DXLF3 modem.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kelevra7:
I'm really sorry (again) but I've searched everywhere and cannot find the right guide to follow (mainly because I don't know what I'm looking for). Could you please point me in the right direction? I've reached new levels of desperation :crying:

From what I can discern from this post (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1716001&page=74) I need to flash a modem fix but I have no idea what I'm doing and I'd really like to avoid bricking my phone :crying:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zodiaxe66:
Try this modem, it's a flashable cwm
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
No the modem fix solves Samsung's typo in regards to commata and is purely cosmetical ;)

The device cannot actually measure the power usage by the modem so it has a pre-defined value, and instead of 3,4 that value read 34,

leading the device to report the modem as battery drain Nr.1 in the stats when actually it was something else (usually the screen) chewing it away.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kelevra7:
For sure?

I don't mean to be petulant because I honestly have no idea what I'm doing (/meme) but loranz in this thread (post #716-718) seemed to be in exactly the same situation as me i.e. rooted and flashed aokp and gapps but not modem. Then after he flashed a modem fix, everything was resolved.

I'm so confused right now....

---------- Post added at 11:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 PM ----------

The reason I want to try everything else first is because I'm kinda intimidated by the process you've described. I don't think I'd be able to pull it off without a glitch so I'd feel even more uncomfortable lying to my provider about never having rooted it. If it comes down to it, I will, but only as a last resort.

I can't also call or receive call from my S3!

Hi, im a very noob member. I have a Korean version of s3 (SHV-E210K 32GB) bought it last month because of its leading specs and etc. I cant seem to call anyone or receive any. SMS works fine but sometimes cant send. Mobile data works fine. Skype works fine. Now, I bought my s3 second hand. So I dont know what happened before it but the seller told me its brand new. 2 weeks old. I can call with other network but cant call with my network im using now. Here's the catch, I tried putting my network into another s3 and it works fine. No problems at all. Now this I wanna know:

1. I want to know if my s3 is rooted? How? (PS: I tried the root validator, result is "this devise is as far away from root as it gets")

2. I wanna know if there's already a forum in here that solved this problem...please put the link.

3. I wanna know how to know what firmware I have...oh please just help me.

4. If all else fail, can you trade your s3 with mine?

any help is much appreciated. Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fluor:
Hi there.

I post this as I've had problems with my Samsung S3 (SIII) many times. When I call people I cannot hear anything, or the mobile just disconnects (lost network)

I've always got this fixed by doing the following:

Go Settings > Wireless and network - More settings > Mobile networks > Network operators.

Then Re-select your network operator manually.

If this do not work, try connect headphones and then disconnect them. Try doing this and then reboot the phone.

So I bought my gt i9300 for 50 dollars with this as a known issue. Is it possible to fix? It was stock but I have rooted and flashed since then. I can return it to stock and reset the flash counter and all but being as i bought it on kijiji can I still get warranty? Any magic lines I can try?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garrickhayes:
im having the same issue , which has occured twice after OTA (over-the-air, aka push) updates :

full signal :

mobile data working, microphone working...calls completely fail - cannot send or receive, no sms functionality.

so far i've tried :

checking the sim

3 different stock roms including ME7 (4.2.2)

different modem

upgraded /efs format to v2

rooted and stock modem upgrades

ARIZA patch

turning it off & on again

screaming into a pillow

eating ice cream to calm down

i have had this issue before and sent the phone to the repair center who claimed i had been tampering with the software. i specifically made a point of not changing anything and only using OTA updates as i eventually fried my s2 by changing roms & kernels 4 times a week,,, i think it's a hardware issue or something they know about as they told me they wouldnt repair it if it happens again, and they try and pin the blame on the user to cover their backsides.

when i got the phone from the service centre they said it was a software issue, not a hardware fault, which leads me to believe there must be some way to fix it myself...

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tizzie:
Hey there xda people, just wanting to let you people know that the WidgetLocker (app) for me at least causes some multi touch problems with the one x.

The problem that it causes is whenever your holding one finger down on the screen to like say control a virtual analog for a game so you can move around and then tap anywhere on the screen to shoot or something. The first finger hold gets wiped out and causes movement to stop. All in all its causes a horrible experience while playing games.

I was having this issue forever until today when I wiped my phone clean and everything works fine with games and stuff until I installed WidgetLocker and I get the issue again. So this issue was fixed when I stopped using the app.

Not sure if a lot of people uses this app but I've been using it since I bought my first Android (sgs ii) and it's a great way to customize your lock screen with widgets and stuff. I'm definitely going to let the developer know about this bug when I have time, my guess as to why this happen is the way that it unlocks your phone that messes up the multitouch.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MyronJ906:
I just tried uninstalling Widget Locker on Nocturnal 111 and I am still getting this bug. I will try to reboot and see if that fixes it for me
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tizzie:
I didn't have to restart, just had to lock the phone then unlock it again with the stock lockscreen.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] MyronJ906:
You are right. When I woke up this morning, it was fixed.

MiLocker causes the same issue... How sad. :(
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tizzie:
Glad to see your issue was fixed. The good thing though is that I'm in love with my phone again lol.

Although I was trying out cm9 alpha 3 earlier this week and I'm pretty sure I was getting the same issue without WidgetLocker. Maybe the locker with cm9 causes this issue as well?

I could be wrong with cm9 though as I may have downloaded the app but didn't use it so that could've cause the problem as well.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] mesasone:
I ran into this issue a while ago... here is a thread I started about it: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1665603

I never did resolve the issue (aside from disabling Widget Locker), nor did I get around to contacting the developer...

However, it appears this does not affect all One Xs using WL as several other people tested and were able to use Widget Locker with out breaking multitouch on the One X.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] samlingx:
I checked out this and mesaone's thread as I was having this issue too. Turns out I was able to fix it by disabling HTC gestures in the Display & Gestures settings menu. DoomGLES now runs without a hitch and I'm able to both move and fire/open doors at the same time. I haven't tested much beyond the DoomGLES test but if anything changes I'll report back.

EDIT: It appears the solution was short-lived; quitting fully out of the applications, turning off the screen, turning it back on and unlocking and then relaunching the app caused the issue to return. On the other hand, simply disabling widget locker for the duration of the game works fine (and unless you're turning your phone off and on a lot while playing games, probably not a big deal). No need to uninstall.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Tudorandroid:
ONe X and Widgetlocker

I have had Widgetlocker for 2 years on my HTC desire. Now upgraded to One X and I have a problem with answering calls.

If the phone is locked and I get a call, I get the call answer option but then have to put in my unlock number. By this time the caller has hung up. Previously on my HTC desire I could answer by pulling the screen slider down even if the phone was locked.

Have I missed a setting??

Help would be good

Thanks

TA
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] tizzie:
The only option would be to not use widgetlocker if you don't want to have problems (that is if you do have problems). I want to confirm that this issue occurs in CM9 even without the widgetlocker app, not sure if others are getting this issue but I suppose I'll be CM9less till it is addressed and fixed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] rohan32:
CM9 and AOKP in general currently have a multitouch bug, whether its with WidgetLocker or not.

Greetings All

Having played with android now for some time Im am suprised that nobody that I am aware of is offering any true full disc encryption for Android.

There are "Security Suites" that offer remote wipe etc but I myself dont consider this to be true security.

RIM has offered full disc encryption and wipe to disc capability for years. Yet Android still doesnt truly have this capability (I am aware the latest versions do have weak so called encryption capability). Android devices certainly have the power to run encryption.

And with Whyspersys having been acquired by Twitter that doesnt seem to be a viable option any longer. Besides, they only really offered encryption for two models of phones.

There has been a DARPA request for this, so somebody must be working on it....

So, my questions are:

Why isnt there any stand alone encryption software available? It cant be that hard to create given that its already been available on other types of handsets that could be considered inferior and less powerful. Blackberry handsets have had full disc encryption with wipe to disc capability for years.

Why havent the larger companies (ie symantec etc) offered it? I believe it would be economically viable as there are many that would buy it particularly if it sold as outside of the Google Market and could be managed from the desktop.

For that matter, why hasnt some whippersnapper wrote a program say even at 168 encryption? Again, it cant be that difficult?

Perfect package in my mind would be 256 AES two fish (or 168), sold on a disc rather than the online market, and come with a desktop manager.

Thanks, for any comments-
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] endeavour123:
I know there's encryption inside ICS natively, but I don't know how strong it is.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wallflood:
Not very strong or effective.

Easily defeated with cellex, celbrite, JTAG etc as is iOS etc.

Unfortunately BBerry is the only handset to offer amazing encryption and wipe to disc encryption. Which why Im amazed nobody else does, or that DARPA has to appeal to the community at large in order to solve this....

Most products address end to end encryption of calls, txt, email etc and location options.

Remote wipe is NOT a true solution if you are carrying important data for business if industrial espionage is a consideration let alone 4th Amendment rights.

I love Android devices, but still....
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
To be honest no matter what you do as long as android is built using an open source platform you will never be able to compare it to a device that was made for business.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m3adow:
Could you clarify this argument? In my oppinion Open source is the key to secure encryption. The more people are able so review the source code and the encryption algorithms, the less exploits will be able to stay unfound.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wallflood:
I think I understand where you are coming from, but I respectfully disagree with that position.

Having been a BB user for several years, I think Android OS is superior in all ways.

But I think the OS, not having come from one company with one goal in mind, is what put Android OS in this position.

As well as the overall obsssion with the collection of tech date by companies and governments, I cant help but feel developers are actually discouraged from creating encryption programs that secure handsets and tablets-
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wallflood:
...Interestingly, DARPA is releasing a secure version of Android OS and is open source so the public can view it.

And the NSA is revealing its SE Android, also open source.

But these versions of the OS focus on being able to store and transmit.recieve classified information.

They also focus on limiting permissions of apps.

For general public use (and Enterprise use) it would be nice to just have a system that was encrypted to disc, and could wipe to disc-
