[Q] Why is the mobile data on 3G and H so slow / not working at all?

Hey guys,

I'm currently having problems with my mobile data. I was running stock 4.3 and flashed to CM 13 (I did a backup of course). My mobile data was working fine at that moment.

Since my the front glass was broken but the LCD was intact, I decided to send in the S3 for repair to a shop that fixes the glass but does not touch the LCD. I got the device back two weeks later and everything was good.

The problem started happening, when I put in my SIM card, I noticed, that 3G or H is not working at all (or very slow). Pages took a minute to just load the HTML. I thought that it was probably an issue with CM 13 or APNs and updated to the newest nightly. Still, not working there. I tried calling the phone and sending SMS and everything worked.

I then decided to go back to my backup of Stock because maybe CM13 was bugged. But now the 3G is not even working on my backup of stock. Regular G works, but is too slow to use. When I switch to 3G the connection is too slow and acts strange by switching to G or just losing the connection entirely.
I checked my APN and that didn't help.

Could that been cause by the repair? Maybe broken the antenna or something? But isn't it inside of the phone and shouldn't be touched by a front glass repair?
It's not an EFS problem I think, since I still have my IMEI and calling works, internet on G works as well but not on 3G.

If it's the antenna, how hard is it to repair?

Thanks for trying to help me! :)
