    Problems with signal, sound and camera

    I contacted Vodafone and they said quote "The access point should not play a part in the coverage issue you are experiencing but just to confirm the access point you are using is indeed correct." I am quite dismayed at their reply as all the settings they do in the APN is in the name and APN...

    Problems with signal, sound and camera

    I received the OTA update with CSC G900FOXA1BOL2 yesterday after I downgraded the phone to Android 4.4. So if by flashing the firmware, the custom ROM should be overwritten right? So why am I encountering these problems?

    Problems with signal, sound and camera

    Both IMEI numbers and Serial Numbers are not blacklisted. So if I understood correctly, no matter how many times I update the firmware, the custom ROM remains intact.

    The current firmware was automatically downloaded OTA. The CSC G900FOXA1BOJ1 was already installed before reverting back to Android 4.4 as this was downloaded from SAMMOBILE and the problems persisted.

Unfortunately I noticed after I bought it that the Knox was tripped and the phone was a refurbished one. I have problems with the signal as if I set it to LTE or 3G, the bars go down until...
