Just got off phone with verizon.... Basically a lot of Ny metro area is having lte problems. I can't receive pic messages.

Same problem here in Pittsburgh. Glad to see it isn't just me.

YES!! I've been restarting my phone, pulling the battery thinking it was me because I was only getting 3g in an area I usually get 4g so I put it in airplane mode to cycle it and when I took it back off a minute later I had no data at all.

No mobile data here either in central PA having to use wifi right now

no data in maryland either...just voice

I wasn't getting any data signal here in Pgh this morning, Now I am atleast getting 3g as of 1:00 pm.Whew... I thought my phone was broke.

Same thing here in Philly. Just got back from Florida so I was worried the issue was on my end when I stepped off the plane this morning and couldn't connect to any data network.
3G just popped up maybe 15 minutes ago and appears to be stable. Still waiting on 4G.

No data in Delaware either. I just flashed a ROM yesterday and new radio and thought it was messed up, but checked the wife's phone and her data is out also.

4G Data speeds just dropped big time

My 4G data speeds are usually around 6mb/s in my area but they just dropped to 300kb in my area. I called customer support and confirmed there are no outages in my area nor am I being throttled. I have already pulled my SIM to no fix. Anyone have any other ideas?

Heavy usage straining the network in your area? I have seen some random speed drops in my area, either my phone is connected to a farther tower or the network is getting hit harder at that moment. Thats what I chalked mine up to at least. Speeds returned to normal after a little while.
Its been going on for 5 hours.

What do u mean its normal? I have got 5mb/s in this location (at work) for the past year. Now all of a sudden my upload speeds are completely normal and my download speeds are hitting less than 100 kb/s. I don't see anything normal about that. Not to mention, everything was fine for the first 2 hours in this location.

I got that sometimes as well..Speed test same location sometimes a got 5Mb/s,and sometimes got 300Kbps.I don't know why either.May be many people use t-mobile's network and download something so you get pretty low speed.

Ok, it is now 12:30Am where I live and the speeds have been the same for 6 hours. I know this tower hasn't been crowded for 6 hours straight with people downloading things when it hasn't been crowded in the middle of the day for the past year. Something is wrong and I promise you, it is not due to people downloading on the same tower. You don't just download over 5mb/s every single day for the past year and then 300kb/s the next day. Sorry but it doesn't happen . Especially during off peak hours at 12:30 in the morning.

Impossible no, implausible yes.
While you might not have an outage in your area perhaps they are doing maintenance and cut a few towers down transferring the load around to surrounding towers. This does not signify an outage as you have not lost service.
Anything on your phone calling out for data in the background?
Does the phone still register 4g or has it dropped to 3 / 2g? Have you rebooted the phone? Disabled / re-enabled data connection on the phone? Are you using an application or website to gather your speed data? have you tried both to see if just an application or website is mis reporting?

It is still registering as 4G. My upload speeds are normal but download is not. I have restarted the phone multiple times, I've pulled the SIM, I've switched to WCDMA only and back to auto again. I have been using the Speed Test app to test the speeds and they are right because web pages are taking minutes to load. I am on my works WiFi right now which is fine. Those speeds are normal.

Personally I'd wait it out. If speeds are not back from a week from now, I would most definitely contact customer loyalty. Tell them youre unhappy with the service, etc and you jut purchased a new phone. maybe you can get out of contract or maybe they can look into your problem to a further extent.

Yea, I just hope it doesn't happen when I go home in the morning where I also get speeds greater than 5 MB/s and my house is about 15 towers away. If it happens, then we know its a problem with the phone. I don't think Customer loyalty can do anything g for me being I am not on contract and they just recently gave me a free Sensation while remaing off contract. They also let me keep my G2X so they have done more than enough. I just want a replacement if there is something wrong with it. Hopefully there's not.

Nah, I called them when I first noticed it to see if there was a outage in my area or if I was being throttled. I already said I called them in a previous post.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
Weird, I wonder if they could be throttling you on accident and it had not shown up in the system yet or whomever you asked about the outage was not looking properly.
Anyone else you know with the same phone or 4g device that can test and see?
Outside of pursuing phone problems and Tmobile issues in your area I'm outta ideas
(UPDATE)...... My phone is perfectly fine everywhere else and I am now back at work where I am on the same tower I got these slow speeds on. I am chalking it up to a problem with this tower since my phone is fine everywhere else.

Data drops

Hi guys,
Seems like I'm getting 4G data drops off T-Mobile. It connects for like, 7 seconds, then drops, then connects again. I've tried both radios and ROM's available (stock) and the same problem exists.
I'm going to return the phone as-is to the customer with the issue partly unresolved, mainly because it does connect voice and MMS, just the data has issues.
Any ideas before I give him the phone back?

Thank you for your reply! I will try that now.
There is a Zip that was created on the G2x forums that fixed the data drops on 4.0.4. O wonder if it would work for our phone given that it's a APN configuration. Hmmm...

Persistent Data Connection Problem

So, it's been more than a month now since I have not been able to get a solid 3G connection in my area where there is no 4G. Last time I asked no one was really able to help, so I thought I try again. If I turn on my data, it usually takes a while for it to connect and once it does, it stays connected for about 30 seconds to a minute. Sometimes it's longer, but it always drops eventually. Sometimes it has the 3G icon, but nothing happens still. It's a beezy to try and send or receive a picture message. The only time I ever use Internet now is if I have Wifi. I sent it into Samsung, got it back more than a week later and all they did was take the update the GS3 received while they had it. It seems as though if I'm in a 4G area, the data works fine, but other than that, it's almost nonexistent. Can anyone help me, please?

I don't know what to say bro. Is it just your area? How does your phone do on other areas? If it works in other areas then it's just bad service in your area? How does someone else's phone act around your house. You should compare it to another phone and see if that one loses data.

Lame man. My issues were terrible until I switched to synergy. I'm on the he modem now but have had luck with lg1 as well. HD was **** on my phone.
Have you tried any modem swaps? Comparing service on hour Samsung to say a Motorola or an iPhone will make you pull your hair out. I fell into it as well. My wife's iPhone wouldnt drop 3g and my old Motorola got great service in the same spot my s3 would drop signal/go to 1x.
Things really got ****ed up when I went to an area with 4g. Watching my phone, with 4 bars of 4g drop to 3g then to 1x, to no service at all for a few minutes then repeat the process over and over again made me RAGE!

Well, my issue isn't like that when I'm in a 4G area. That's why it doesn't make any sense. The service here is fine, my phone just doesn't like it. I've tried every modem out there so far, and none have helped.

Droid MAXX on T-Mobile?

I want to buy the Droid MAXX off-contract to use on T-Mobile (my Nexus 4 just broke). But I'm having trouble figuring out how to do that? Verizon wants me to pay month-to-month and with a plan? How do I just buy the darn phone?
I had a terrible time trying to just buy the phone outright through them. I was at the Verizon store for about 3 hours. Finally got it, went home, then saw the dev edition was out. So if I were you I would just get the dev model if its not sold out straight from Moto's website.

Thats what I was trying to get to. I was under the impression that you were on constant LTE with no issues. Now that you say you leave it on H+ that makes sense. Not to worry, H+ pulls about 9Mb/s where as when im on VZW LTE I pull about 8.

I had a maxx running 4.4 kitkat using the phone info app and settings tweak on HSPA with WCDMA preferred as the setting. I am in a refarmed area in N.C cant tell any big difference between speed when I had the Iphone 5 on Tmobile LTE and the Maxx with HSPA. Seems just as fast.
Then i broke the screen on the maxx -_- instead of replacing the screen just got a new phone since Im not with verizon and it would have been 345 to replace the screen.
Just got a new one but its running 4.2.2 and am using the same settings with same results. :good:

When I first got the phone I thought the same, I actually was under the impression the LTE wouldnt even pick up with my Tmobile sim on 4.2.2 Before I made the settings changes, I had my wifi on, LTE showed active on the status bar, I shut my wifi off, and it reverted to HSPA but did not have any active data, or any active cellular functions. I re activated the wifi, the LTE status came back but still had no cellular functions, the data I did have was obviously coming from my wifi and not cell data. For some reason I though 4.2.2 I didnt have to make any changes and HSPA would work automatically, but I guess not. Im not picky though as long as it works somehow, I am happy.

For some reason I though 4.2.2 I didnt have to make any changes and HSPA would work automatically, but I guess not. Im not picky though as long as it works somehow, I am happy.

Maybe a reboot and retry? Do this for me. Turn off wifi and set pref mode to LTE/Gsm/umts. Leave the pref network to auto and try that
Maxx'd out Kit Kat
Gave that a shot with no luck. Was there a specific network mode I was supposed to select in the phone info app? I had in the phone settings LTE/GSM/UMTS and network on auto, i scrolled through a bunch of the selections in the phone info app with no luck, just HSPA and no connection.
Just got me the Dev Edition ordered. Says in stock but shipping may take 7days. Going to use mine on at&t for now

Update profile, no lte?

So I updated my prl and profile yesterday, and since then I have no lte connection. So far I completely wiped and reinstalled my rom, tried to reactivate service, cleared my apns and installed Sprints apn file... I'm at a loss as to what to do, any advice?
I'm in the same boat.. Did you ever find a fix?
I haven't, tried everything I know to try... I'm wondering if it's an issue with sprint...
Well the girlfriend hasn't complained about her N5 yet. I've tried a new modem , APN, field test and *#*#4636#*#*
Lost LTE on Sprint yesterday too after just rebooting my phone. I've done everything thing I can think of to get it back and nothing. Just get a empty triangle until it gives up and goes to 3G. Stopped at Sprint today to see if they had a SIM card, so I could see if my SIM card was corrupted before buying a new phone. Of course, they didn't because Sprint stores are the most useless places on Earth. Was thinking about how I wanted to go about buying a new phone, but now this seems like it might not be an isolated incident.
For those that are wondering, so far I have:
- updated prl/profile
- turned radio off and on
- reflashed the radio
- factory reset fresh install
- factory reset fresh install and flash the old sprint fix .zip (figured I'd try it for the hell of it)
- Went to a Sprint store to see if they had a different SIM to try (they didn't)
Really need to figure out if this is a hardware issue, SIM issue, or something stupid that Sprint did. I was leaning towards hardware, but if a few people from Sprint all had this happen to them on the same day...

Mine is also back
So that was weird... LTE dropout specific to the Nexus 5 on Sprint. At least it came back before I went out and bought a new phone.

It may be all triband devices, no way to confirm...
I can't seem to make any phone calls, but I have data. Damn this is weird

Well that's weird for me then. I can get on here from my phone yet I can't call my voicemail.. They must be upgrading something
Any of you guys think data speeds picked up a bit since this happened? Could just be a fluke, but I'm getting faster download speeds ATM.

Mine seems to be faster too, especially inside
