How to Fix Signal Problems on Samsung Mobiles

The main function of mobiles is to call or be connected to the Internet and when we have coverage problems we cannot do either of these two things. At certain times our Samsung mobile can suffer these problems and we want to help you solve them so that you recover all their possibilities.

Signal Problems on Samsung Mobiles

Since Samsung mobiles use the One UI personalization layer , all the models share characteristics that will help us to end these coverage problems. It does not matter if we have the latest model or we have a mobile of the entry range, none is exempt from coverage failures for various reasons that we will know.

Is it really a mobile problem?

Several of the main problems in our Samsung mobile apparently identified with the coverage have nothing to do with it and we must know what they are. Before trying to fix more serious problems, we must focus on the most basic things to start.

Check that you have not activated airplane mode

The airplane mode access button can be so close to WiFi or mobile data that we can accidentally press it at any time. By lowering the notification corita we will see our shortcuts and we can check if the airplane mode is deactivated and also if we have the data or the WiFi connected.

We must put the crosshair on the icons at the top of our mobile to identify the coverage situation. The classic coverage lines will be those that tell us if we are connected or on the contrary there is some problem related to this aspect.

The case may be the problem

Among all the covers that we can have our mobile there are some that are not suitable for areas where the signal is weak. Depending on the material, they can cause us to lose signal and remain incommunicado. It is easy to check if this really is the problem, just by removing it we can see if it caused interference and was a wall.

Check the SIM card

In many occasions the small SIM card that our Samsung mobile phone has inside is to blame for the problems with the coverage. So removing it, blowing it and putting it back correctly can help us to recover the coverage on our smartphone.

We can also choose to test the card on the mobile of a friend or family member and we will instantly check to see if these problems do not exist on your mobile and therefore it is our mobile or the telephone company.

Coverage failures by area or place

Let’s not forget that the place where we are could also be the culprit. There are areas of the world where our company and its antennas do not arrive, something that we can check in our area and answer questions.

In addition to the areas, the buildings or house can have a lot to do, just by going outside we will know if the problem resides in the building or place that we are. We live surrounded by technological products and this at times may also be the cause.

Find flaws in Samsung mobiles

One of the advantages of Samsung mobiles is that they have thought of everything and they put a problem diagnosis tool on the tray. We will only have to look for the Samsung Members application that already comes by default in One UI and within them look for the diagnostics section to carry out an analysis . Through this test, all the sensors and hardware of the device will be checked, giving us a result so that we can find out if there is something damaged.

Check the Network settings

Although it is not something very common when we already have our Samsung mobile for a while, network configuration errors are usually the most common in new users. To check it and try to solve it, we will have to go to Settings> Connections> SIM card manager> Select our SIM and then check that it is activated, in addition to tapping on network mode. In this option we will see options ranging from 2G to 4G or 5G depending on our model and we must always select 4G or 5G automatically so that it changes when the mobile does not find the best signal.

In addition to this, the APN is another of the points that most affects the Internet line and a bad configuration can cause errors. We will have to contact our phone company to know the APN and access our Samsung mobile in the Settings> Connections> Mobile networks> Access point section and add the APN manually with the data provided by the operator.

Reset Network settings

In the event that despite having configured the APN we continue to have problems, we can resort to reestablishing the mobile network and trust that the SIM card is automatically configured again, something increasingly common. To do this we first recommend removing the SIM card from the device and then we will have to follow the following steps that we show you and explain.

We enter Settings> General Administration> Reset> Reset Network Settings and then press the button to complete it. With this process, no file will have been removed from the mobile, only configuration options . Now to insert the SIM card again we should receive a message from our company as if it were a new mobile and then if everything should work again.

If there is no other choice, do a Hard Reset

The last solution to our problem is none other than doing a Hard Reset, when nothing has worked and our company is not to blame, we will have to choose to delete everything we have on our mobile. Worse before we will have to remove the files from the mobile that we do not want to lose, for example music, photos and videos. Once we are ready, we follow these steps:

  • We turn off our Samsung phone and then press both volume up and on or bixby.
  • In the next step we move with the volume up and down keys , accepting with the power button.
  • We are on ” Wipe data / Factory reset ” and accept with the power button.
  • We repeat the process with the ” Yes ” option.
  • Finally we choose ” Reboot system now ” and wait for our mobile to return to the original state.

Once it is completed, we will have our mobile ready to reconfigure it with our email account and use it again with our SIM card.
