Data issues? 2/22/2012 - Thunderbolt General

I am in Phoenix and have basically no data, I had 1X for a while, rebooted saw 3G for a couple minutes and now nothing again. I see on another board other reports.
Are you see this too?

Im having similiar issues in nj. I cant hold 4g, been in 3g but isnt 3g sppeds, and 1x

Same thing here in Dallas TX.

Wow I thought this was only me. I have toggled data and 4g/3g. Rebooted and I am stuck with 3g only. I am running son of a bliss.

No 4G in Beaumont, TX area either. 3G is available. 80 miles east of Houston here.

Same here in Cincinnati. Noticed 1x around 7am, rebooted a number of times. Searched some forums and twitter. Verizon, get with the program, if you have a data problem post it on Twitter so we know.

I can confirm as well in SE Wisconsin, only weak 3G

3G only in Los Angeles as well
this is getting embarrassing for the nations most reliable 4g lte network.

Baltimore area, haven't toggled 4G/3G yet, but my phone currently has no data at all--not even 1X.
EDIT: After 4G toggle, 3G is fine.

Same on Columbus Ohio

4G back (now) in Phoenix 10:48 local time.

3g only in the "D"
(Detroit)

4g is back for me as well in Atlanta Georgia.

4G is back in Baltimore.

4g problems in Grand Rapids, MI.

I heard it was solar flares. The Hughes net at my work went down too and T mobile had the same problems.

Is everyone back up? BC i'm still stuck on 1x. I talked to VZW yesterday and they told me there were no issues in my area (Indianapolis, IN area), however I am still stuck. Had the SIM replaced last night at local VZW store. Tech support on the phone told me if the SIM didn't take care of it, they would send me a new phone. I'm not convinced that will do any good either if its everywhere. OTOH my wife's 4G samsung charge runs just fine sitting right next to my bolt...

Does Anyone Use 4g only/ LTE Mode?

I do a lot to save battery but keep the phone flying, but one thing i havent tried is using LTE only. I live outside of philly, so im thinking since im blanketed in all those 4g emvs and dont travel far i can pull this off all day without switching to 3g and back and forth. Anyone in cities centers doing this?
If you set it to LTE only and lose 4G service, you'll drop to 1X.
How do you set it to 4g only?
I use LTE Only mode, I live in L.A. and the entire city/county is pretty much blanketed in 4G, I've never seen my phone drop to anything else besides 4G but I'm sure it would if I went somewhere with bad service. Battery life is great for me on LTE only.
Yup I use LTE only in NYC. Not a single issue.
Use 4g only here in san Diego.. no issues
4G only here in Jersey City, no problems.
LTE only here in DC and all is well until I go too far from the city. Then I just switched it to 3G only. TeamAndIRC ftw.

Cleveland with 4g only in LTE mode checking in. Good battery saver.
Good battery life with LTE? LOL yeah, if you don't use data. Try using it hard for a couple hours and see where your battery is.
Yep in Houston. Very rare does it drop service (usually only if I'm in the rear of a store) and it drops to 3G. *using *#*#4636#*#* method
I use it all the time.
I have a few spots on my commute that 4g drops for a sec and if I don't have it on lte only my tethering will stay on 3G until I turn off data and turn it back on.
So when I leave it on lte only it might cut out for a sec but comes back on.
I only use LTE in Nashville as well. No issues.
I haven't lost service since I went LTE only a few hours ago n I've been playing on it ever since. Pretty good. Maybe the device takes on 3g if that signal is stronger? Every other time I use it In my house I notice it flipping between them. ill have to really take a few days n see if it makes a difference w battery
how are you guys turning on 4g in the settings? i dont see a setting for 4g anywhere

phone/dialer, *#*#4636#*#*
tap phone info, scroll down, choose LTE only from drop down menu, wait or optionally tap radio off and then radio on

LTE mode on in Denver - spotty as your head towards the mountains
LTE only in Seattle area, no problems.
I use an app called Network by mangelow to manage the radio.

I've experienced the same problem, it hardly ever drops to 3g, always straight to 1x. I also live in a extended service zone and usually only get 1 or 2 bars of 4g at home. One thing I noticed is that if I have my whole hand gripped tightly on the phone, I will lose 4g. Kind of annoying at times. Hope it is just an automatic switching software problem and they can update it to seamless 4g/3g switching with no 1x!
I am going to try lte only in Pittsburgh... will post status update tomorrow

Stuck in 1X

I use LTE On / Off. Last night i turned off 4G before going to bed and when putting it back to CDMA auto (PRL) and now its stuck on 1X. Anyone know how to fix this? My download is ultra slow - i feel im on 9600 baud! I was using Mikrom, flashed to 3 other roms including new radio ROM and it did not fix it.
There is a post with almost an identical name that will explain that the LTE network is down, look around there are quite a few threads that talk about it.
verizons aware of the problem they said there tryin fix it
Depending on the area you are in, there may be an outage. Spoke to cust serv and to tech with VZW and was told, in Seattle, there is a 4G outage causing many TBolt users to default to 3g or 1x
Fail.
Did you bother to read?
It looks like its been fixed here in north Louisiana. 3g is back up and running here.
Edit: false alarm. Still at 1x.

Not fixed in Texas... Still at 1X
Looks like 3g is back up for me. Not 4g though. Northwest Atlanta, GA.

finally have 4G coverage here (even though Verizon says otherwise)

i seem to finally be receiving 4G coverage here in San Diego (north county coastal). speeds are no where near as impressive as the 4G they have in downtown San Diego though.
in downtown SD was able to download a 700MB file in about 5 minutes. here in the N.C. coastal area it takes about 20 minutes. still, better then the 1 1/2 - 2 hours it took on 3G.
weird thing though, according to the verizon 4g coverage map on verizon's website, it still says that there is no 4G in my area yet + i was at a verizon store earlier and the 4G phones they have on display still say 3G.
does it have something to do with updating to the new radio(possibly being able to pick up a 4G that isn't officially turned on in this area yet?) i'm also on a sense 3.5 rom.

The radio might have something to do with it, but there's no way to know for sure. It's kinda pokey in the beginning.
Where in north county? In Oceanside and no 4g yet.
Odds are, they're simply turning it on tower by tower or possibly just testing it. Until it's fully up and running, do NOT expect VZW to say they have 4G in your area or update their online maps.
Should they run radio ads saying "Enjoy amazing 4G speeds on Verizon's network, but only in voxigenboy's general area" ?

I'm in Carlsbad (92008) but also tested in Oceanside (92054). 4G all the way.
the radio I'm using is that newer 9## one.. its not the MR 3.5
there was a link to it in that sense 3.5 look-a-like rom thread.
oddly enough, even though Oceanside is closer to the towers I've been getting a stronger signal in Carlsbad. for instance, that Angelo's Burgers in South O, I used to get full 3G reception there.. now on 4G the signal there sucks.
then the Carlsbad library on CVB, it used to have a ****ty 3G signal... now the 4G there is very strong.
Weird, I'm on the fringe of Oceanside but I haven't noticed 4g anywhere i've been. Even downtown. Seen it in some parts of Carlsbad but haven't been around there too recently.
4g seems weird. I am in a strong 4g area but do not get it at my house but do at the station about 2 miles down the road I do.

^What he said. 4G came and went for about 3 weeks in Indy before it was officially here.
Im disappointed, I live about 45 mins outside of Savannah Georgia, and still no LTE... Only place I pick it up is when I head to Jacksonville/St Augustine area... ISO my LTE
still no LTE
There's still no LTE in 92056, 92058, 92057 or anywhere else in Oceanside. Maybe they were just testing it. Vista, Fallbrook and Camp Pendleton still dont have it either. I noticed that Verizon recently lit up all of Riverside County west of the mountains but it seems like they are doing a poor job in San Diego. They are adding one or two cities at a time. Hopefully, that Riverside County crew will move into our area and show the lazy San Diego Verizon workers how to upgrade a network.
You guys are complaining I am in NJ in the state of Verizon's headquters and we have up north and heading toward phillips that's it and in every time they turn on more radios never do they mention NJ so I am thinking 2013

No 4G data in DFW

I have 4G signal but can't get any 4g data in Dallas. Anyone else have this issue? 3G works fine.
Sent from Skyrim
think I read in the rezound forums of 4g issues in the southwest. Haven't notice any problems down here in San Antonio
Haven't had any problems here in North Dallas recently.
Call Verizon and see if there is any outages in your area. First thing to do when you have issues as Verizon is always playing/tweaking with their 4G network.
Seems to be back up now. Was getting the 1X with no failiver to 3g all weekend.

LTE and 4g unstable

I live in south florida, incase this is a regional issue. I have noticed thta my tmo lg g2 service is rediculously sporadic in quality. Some days my service is stellar and with lte all day and others it kicks to 4g which is worthless as it just says 4g but doesn't really connect to anything - most of the time.
I have noticed that even with LTE, I can't talk and surf, which is what I thought being on gsm was supposed to get me.
anyone else with service/signal issues?
Thanks
I am notcing that as I make a call lte turns off and it says just 4g which is pretty slow if it works at all.
