Physical damage to the RF IC (Transceiver MT6177MV-B), PMIC issues, or broken connections between the CPU and the modem block. eMMC Issues:
If basic resets fail, you likely need to re-install the system's "modem" file using Samsung Odin.
The A022F is an entry-level device with solder balls under the chip that are prone to cracking. If you dropped the phone, the baseband IC or the Power Management IC (PMIC) may have developed (Cold Solder Joints). As the phone heats up, the connection expands and fails.
Tech Repair Central Difficulty Level: Intermediate to Advanced Devices Covered: Samsung Galaxy A02 (SM-A022F), SM-A022F/DS
If software fails, open the phone. (Requires a Phillips #00 screwdriver and a plastic spudger.)
*#0011# → Service mode – if blank or “Not active”, modem offline. *#0808# → Set to DM + MODEM + ADB for low-level debugging.
