That wasn't the case. Changed a new Sim card that wasn't the case. Finally found this forum... Thank God at least there's a way around it until samsung gets its next update.This work around is good for now.. QUESTION: when the update comes do we need to do something after?? Got update today. After update I had to go in and uncheck AP and restart to get service. Before that list all connection to TMobile. Will see if this update fixed the connection possible Thank you! Please post your result. I will post my result once I get the update.3Visto1like0ComentariosRe: is anyone having network issues with galaxy z fold 3??

I do get a random message sometime that its searching for network but it seem to connect immediately… the call quality is much improved and messages send with no problem, 5g seems to work fast and efficiently. Today i got an software update ending in BVA9and I was hoping this was a permanentfix. This does not seem to fix anything for me...after the update the phone went into searching and I had to manually select T-Mobile .The connection bounced between H+ 3g and 5g with super slow internet browsing. I have only tested this for a short time in my home but that was enough for me to reapplythe workaround toget things working again Thank you for sharing!3Visto1like0ComentariosRe: is anyone having network issues with galaxy z fold 3??

T-Mobile and Samsung support are useless. T-Mobile sent me to Samsung, Samsung sent me to Google becauseAndroid belongs to Google…3Visto1like0ComentariosRe: is anyone having network issues with galaxy z fold 3??

They recommended, factory reset, change of SIM card or get a samsung warranty replacement. I went into the first tmobile store and they acted like "oh no problem, lets get you into a new phone, oh wait, no you have to go to the tmobile store that you bought the phone at so they can bring up the original reciept for an exchange" . I go to the store I bought the phone at and they said "that representative didn't have a clue what they were talking about. We cannot just exchange the phone. You have to call samsung for a warranty swap (or whatever terminology). They did switch out my SIM card and it didn't work. Ugh. So frustrating. Anyway, I scheduled a call with samsung tomorrow and i'm really hoping they are receptive to my concerns. Honestly, at this point, I want a new model because I've got a sneaking suspicion that getting another phone won't fix the problem. I just got this phone in Sept 2021!!! Has anyone gone through the warranty process, received another FOLD 3, and have the issue fixed? Hello afiser: I've been down that road as well. My advice is not to waste any more time with Samsung and T-Mobile support. I used the workaround fix ("Go to the dialer and dial star pound 2263…") posted by "MaTchu" in this thread and it's been working for over a week now. I believe the cause is related to the release of the Android version 12 and not the phone's hardware itself;"the antenna malfunction, motherboard malfunction, the phone needs to be replaced, etc.…". Someone doesn't understand that the hardware requires a driver/software for it to work. In our case, the software update changed and not our hardware! A lot of us got our phone working again using this band configuration fix proved that our hardware is okay. Good luck and I hope you'll get your phone working once again!

This could be related to the hardware issue. Since the ZFold kinda hot when using data and charging, especially when using android auto. That could be the reason for the antenna malfunction. Hello Bryan Vo, If it's the antenna malfunction (hardware), how is changing the band configurations (software settings) got it working again? I'm puzzled by your comment...1Ver0likes0ComentariosRe: is anyone having network issues with galaxy z fold 3??

However, only 1 of 2 of my phones have network issues. The one with the network issue with "BUILD NUMBER" "SP1A.210812.016.F926U1UES1BUL7" and the other one with "Build number" ended with xxxBULA without an issue. Please share your "Build Number" if possible (Setting>About phone>Software information>Build number). Thanks! Mine ends with BULA, but I'm facing the issue. I think it's based on when & where the phone was manufactured.
