I bought a samsung j3 (2016) from a friend, tested everything and found no problem at all. Hence, i can say that It's software and hardware are okay. I even made calls and browsed with it.
After checking and double checking, i got that ASSURANCE that the phone is good. So, i paid for the phone and left. After some days i realised that the phone would lack network in some places where it shouldn't at all. I complained to the guy but he swore that it hadn't happened before. I decided to seek solution myself. I went to alaba here in owerri and a phone repairer tested my network reciever but found no fault. He advised that i should upgrade the phone which i did but the problem persisted.
However, i didn't get discouraged and so i travelled to onitsha and went to emeka offor plaza where a popular and experienced engineer that said that i should change the panel.

i dont know the prize of the panel but i have 5k. Please should i change the panel or just do a phone swap with the 5k?

I have done all those things. maybe i will just do a phone swap to get another.

Go to Tetlow road Owerri.
Anywhere from 6-12 Tetlow road, those guys there are wizards. Many of them studied computer engineering in school so they know their onions.
Any phone they tell you they can't repair, only computer village Lagos or its manufacturers can save it.

If you want to repair a computer too be it desktop or laptop, go to the same Tetlow road but this time check from 20-91. It's at Tetlow road I get to see a lot of female techies opening up phone and laptops like it's child's play and doing wonders with them.


I repeat, the guys at Tetlow road are good at what they do.
