Hi Guys!
I recently purchased a used Galaxy note 3 Tmobile variant model N900T. The phone was sold as unlocked and the seller assured me it was fully functional and recently used on the T-mobile network.
Since I received the phone I have had severe network issues using my T-mobile simcard. The network issues are as follows.
Data network stuck on EDGE.
Voice Network disconnects usually after the first phone call, the phone call itself will not disconnect and is stable but once it is ended the modem seems to lock up or reset i'm not sure which one but it could be an hour or more before the voice network will come back. Sometimes a reboot of the phone helps but not always. When this happens I will receive a NOT REGISTERED ON NETWORK ERROR or OUT OF SERVICE AREA.
NOTE: As I'm writing this it is 2am, in LA, California and I have just managed to make 5 calls in a row with no disconnection which is a first! I have noticed however that there is no data service, not even edge, could this be related in some way?
I have done the following.
Contacted T-mobile, they checked everything including IMEI, APN settings, and confirmed no blacklisting or network issues.
Checked that the IMEI number on the label and OS match.
Replaced sim
Tested the phone in different high signal LTE covered area's (Los Angeles)
Used my current sim in various phones, S3, Iphone4, S3 mini. All without voice or data issues, apart from the international S3 LTE which was stuck on EDGE also.
Re flashed various official stock T-mobile firmwares using ODIN. Such as N900TUVUDNF1, N900TUVUDNF4, N900TUVUDNF9, N900TUVUDNK3 and I also believe N900TUVUCNB4 with similar results.
Currently using N900TUVUDNF4
I have pretty much run out of idea's at this point, and decided to post here as a last resort. The seller is telling me that the phone has always worked fine for him and that he does not take refunds. Its all quite suspicious I am starting to believe that this phone has some kind of intermittent fault on the modem. I am hoping there is something that I might have overlooked on my end or some kind of test I can perform here to confirm a hardware fault.
Thanks for the support.
