Samsung Galaxy A11 question

[ikonix360]

I have a Samsung Galaxy A11 that I recently replaced the board with the charging port on it with one from Amazon due to the charging port being flakey.

Anyways I now seem to have an issue losing signal sometimes in places I used to not lose signal.

Does that board have anything to do with the reception strength of the cell signal?

I've got three out of 5 bars now where I am and my phone reads -109dBm 99 asu.

Is that a correct reading?

As far as I know, these things are not related in any way.

Ok thanks.

I saw a couple RF cables and a couple connections for antennas on the phone's back cover, but hat could have been for the WI-FI and/or GPS antennas.

Another question.

Occasionally the phone will restart at random and how I know it has done that is when I try to turn the screen on and it briefly flashes the Verizon screen seen while the phone is booting. If I hold down the power button or keep pressing it the display flashes on and off while plugged in and also unplugged.

If I plug the phone in, the display will stay on once I press the power button.

It may be a day or several days before it does that again.

What could be the problem?

You probably have "Enable automatic restart when needed" enabled.
It is usually under Settings - Battery and device care - Auto optimization: on

There's no setting for that, but even if there was that still wouldn't explain why the screen does what it does as when I do a manual restart the screen stays on when something is being displayed on the screen.

Well, I don't know what Samsung Galaxy you have then, but if there is really something strange and You can't understand what's going on, then you should contact the specialists.

Didn't start happening until I replaced the board with the charging port on it.

Hi Iconix, than it must be the port charger that is causing the issue then. Either the port charger is producing a weak signal, faulty contains an automatic optimiser that is hidden or incompatable with the system.

What I also wonder is if Samsung did like Apple did at one point and an update made the phone not be as good to force an upgrade?
