[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nookcoloruser:
Yep because walking around with a wireless dongle, with a charger because battery life on them is never stellar + your phone is just so much more convenient a solution than buying 1 device where it all just works.

Jumping through hoops to save money and end up with a solution that actually offers less functionality is such a practical solution.

As for phones being outdated now, I guess that's why they sold hundreds of millions of them each year globally, because they're an outdated concept.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lite426:
The battery on them is fine if you buy a good quality one, you can call it "jumping through hoops", but if you really want to spend £300 more just to avoid carrying another thing, which you can just slip into your backpack or suitcase or whatever, then you have more money than sense.

Millions of phones are sold because people don't see a new smartphone and go "oh wow, look how well it makes calls and does texting!" They're impressed by the screen, the specs etc. which could all be had in a demo unit for much less.

If those millions knew they could get live demo units for two thirds less, with identical specs except for cellular, and they were savvy enough to know how to carry external wifi and download free phone apps, then I'm sure not all those millions would've have bought the phones. Common sense guide you...

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoniinfante:
OK, all started about a month ago when i decided to buy my current Note 4 N910C. I had a Note 2 N7100 on Cricket Wireless and everything was working just fine, when i got my Note 4 it came with Uzbekistan Android 4.4.4 N910COXE1ANK5, after setting up my new phone i went ahead and rooted it :p , everything was perfect while i was on Kitkat ANK5 rom. Then i flashed the latest 5.0.1 Lollipop rom which is B0C5, and on the bottom of the screen a REFRESHING SIM DATA popup stated to appear, every 10 minutes, or anywhere where the phone had poor or no signal.

After almost a month searching and asking i never got a solid answer but i really appreciate all kind of people who tried to help me, it was really frustrating reading all over the internet about this annoying REFRESHING SIM DATA message. After trying to flash latest firmwares thru Odin, changing APNs, setting network mode manually, after buying a new SIM, nothing really helped , i thought i had a faulty device. Finally i asked alot of times if can even flash a KitKat Modem into Lollipop Rom, but like before never got a solid answer, that it will brick my device, that it cant be done, so i didnt want to try cuz i have no warranty on this expensive phone.

After asking again to my friend and awesome developer [MENTION=4503214]not-i[/MENTION] i got a solid answer that i can really flash KitKat modem in my Lollipop rom, here's the link http://xdaforums.com/note-4/develop...-nj4-4-4-4-t2923953/post56398444#post56398444

The FIX

So finally i flashed the old Kitkat ANK5 Modem into my Lollipop B0C5 5.0.1 rom, and TA DAAAAAA no more annoying REFRESHING SIM DATA, my speeds went up, i got a much better signal now, i can use LTE,

CONCLUSION

There are still thousands of people of a 100s forum asking and looking for a way to fix this annoying message and i really hope this thread can help them. Cheers:fingers-crossed:

then click Install and navigate to the folder you saved the modem

choose the modem.zip file

flash it

901C Marshmellow & KitKat Modem

Will the KitKat modem that is referenced in this thread work with a 901C with Android Marshmallow installed? I've had Marshmallow for months but lately the Refreshing SIM Data and slowness with some apps has become unbearable.

I don't know if my question will be answered since this thread is so old but.......is there a way to stop this annoyance without root? I have no pc and just got a N109C and am using a cricket sim and constantly getting the refreshing sim message EDIT: I've rooted my phone and tried out the radio mentioned here and while the message does pop a little less it still pops up fairly regularly. I don't have the greatest signal with cricket at my home so I thought that's why it was happening but apparently not because it was doing it when I went out earlier too.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stroker15:
Just wanted to let you know that you can flash the ANK5 modem onto Marshmallow. I have a 910C on Cricket and the refreshing sim data was driving me nuts. I also tried switching sims and had cricket refresh my network twice. I tried every modem listed for 5.1.1 and 5.0.1 and nothing helped. I upgraded my firmware from the THL version of Marshmallow to the TTT version which is the latest version as of today and it's got a different modem, that didn't work either. I finally figured out that you have to click on the icon under modems for 4.4.4 to get the ANK5 modem. I flashed it just now and will have to wait and see if I still keep getting the refreshing sim data or not but so far over the last few minutes I haven't seen it and my data speed is sa bit faster. Signal strength is the same. I hope this works because I'm out of options besides buying a new phone.

I am just wondering if I'm missing out on something by using such an old modem. There's 11 newer modems after the ANK5 version. You would think newer versions would be better or offer better features or security. If it works it works, but does anyone know what I might be missing?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stroker15:
Update ANK5 on Marshmallow.

I just wanted to let you all know that flashing the ANK5 modem on Marshmallow definitely gets rid of the refreshing sim data problem. I've been using it for the last few days and haven't seen that message, except when rebooting the phone.

Also, my phone is not rooted, I just used Odin to flash the modem, real simple and easy to do.

Call quality is fine and phone works perfectly, even with such an old modem. Signal may be about a bar better than before but I'm not sure if that's just my imagination or not. I just know it works, thanks for starting this thread.

Help?

Thank you for posting this, I was surprised at how many people are having this same issue.

So I had one of my friends fix mine a couple months ago and everything was working great (910C). I decided I wanted to upgrade to 6.0 so I used Odin to put it on my phone which undid whatever he did to fix the SIM CARD REFRESHING crap. I tried doing what you said; I have used every baseband version listed for the 910C and while it shows that it has been updated the issue still persists.

Is there anything that you would suggest that I can do? Can I put a baseband on from a different Note 4 that was actually made for the US?

Messaging Issues?

Are you having any issues with your messaging? I did the exact same thing you did and my photo messages aren't coming through. They are just giving me a download button that never works.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stroker15:
On the ank5 modem I was getting mms messages ok. I just recently updated to the latest version of marshmallow and that had a new modem. I did have a problem with one mms message and it said downloading and it never downloaded the picture, but I got another mms message after that and it did download the picture, and this was with the new latest modem. So I don't think it's a modem issue.

Of course with the new modem in the latest version of marshmallow, my refreshing sim data issue came back. To be honest I'm not sure if that really is a problem or not, so I don't know if I'll go back to the ank5 modem or just stick with the new one and live with the refreshing sim data popup.

The reason I'm trying out the latest new modem, even with the refreshing sim data problem, is sometimes my phone would go from LTE to H+ or H and in order to get the data speed to go back to LTE I'd have to toggle airplane mode and it would go back to LTE. I would have this problem with the ANK5 modem but I haven't been using the new latest modem long enough to see if it happens with this one too.

---------- Post added at 02:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 PM ----------

Did you try the ANK5 modem? That's the only one that fixes the problem. Like you I also tried all the modems and installed the ANK5 one last. It works.
