[Q] Nexus 5 stuck on 02 Edge Help - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I got my Nexus 5 few hours ago (after trying out the Nexus 4 but not feeling it) and have been setting it up the way I want it, and then about 30 minutes ago its stuck on edge and i ve switched between 4g and 3g but no luck, i've restarted the device as well no luck. I have a friend who has a Nexus 4 who had this issue a while ago until it self resolved after a few days but I don think I can cope with just edge connection.
Is anyone else having this issue and what can I do to resolve this or what advice has anyone got for me.
Thanks in advance (made me realised once again why I stuck with HTC)

i have the same problem, any idea's?

Try entering *#*#4636#*#* in to the dialler, going to phone information, scrolling down and changing the network type to another one.

Does this setting persist through a reboot?
Also, I'm on Sprint and having a similar issue with being stuck on 3G. Does anyone know which setting if any will give priority to LTE? It seems the phone only operates on LTE when I choose "LTE only" which is really not what I want to set it on permanently. None of the other settings seemed to give any favorable results. Thanks all.
I think I wrote LTE a few too many times.

Hi all, I have the same problem, the dispostivo get stuck in 2g network - edge.
For me to run, switch to WCDMA only with *#*#4636#*#*​
It is a very annoying bug, it has happened every 4 or 5 days.

My Nexus 5 works on EDGE or LTE, but will not switch to HSDPA any more. Software is 4.4.4 Any ideas?
I tried factory reset from recovery, still the same.

Flashing the android l radio improves o2 network reception in the uk

I tried this and it keeps changing back to the setting it had before .. Do I just back out after changing it or do I have to click something else ?

[Q] CM 10 issues

Hello,
I would like to know if anyone is experiencing these issues after flashing to CM 10 (nightly or M2) and if you are experiencing them have you found a fix.
1. When I am in a 4G LTE area my service drops and keeps switching between 3G and H+ but it never picks up LTE.
2. It takes a really long time to send a MMS.
3. Screen times out when typing in the quick reply box for texting.
Thanks in advance.

Hmm, it seems kept only getting 4G the other day regardless what I did. After reregistering my network (Settings -> More... -> Mobile Networks -> Network operators -> AT&T) now every time I text it would go 3G/HSPA+ then back to 4G so I though that was normal.
I don't get any lag when I'm texting anyone. and when I go to quick reply it screen doesn't time out.
This is on the 101412 build. I did reinstall my stuff last night to get the new gapps 101112 but I doubt that would've made any difference.
I would try re-registering your network and see if that helps any.

I just re-registered. I'll wait for a few hours to see if I notice any differences. Hopefully that'll fix some of my issues.

[Q] Most recent radio? [SOLVED]

Haven't had this phone very long so I know nothing about the radios. Not sure how much of this matters but I'm on i9020t, currently at&t but soon tmobile, east coast/appalachian area, running JellyB-tsm (4.2.1). Thing is, I went and flashed one of the five I downloaded and it worked so I moved on, now I'm getting bad calls and wifi problems.
Different but related problem, see post 3...

Re: [Q] Most recent radio?
Just flashed the latest radio on the sprint model. It increased my call quality and wifi issues I was having.
Read through the radio thread I know some of them help in some areas but make other signals worse.

Alright so here's my recent issue. Just switched from at&t sim to tmobile sim. I entered the apn settings straight talk says I should and I'm getting excruciatingly slow data. I stumbled across a few different settings for tmobile apn and none of them even gave me a connection. I'm about to start flashing radio after radio to see if anything works but if someone knows something else that might fix it (ie working apn settings) let me know.
Sorry this is so big but upload isn't working here.

This is where I got them but it doesn't really say much about them.
9020a and 9020t have different radio hardware
they are not interchangeable
...so i would ASSume neither are the sim cards
fwiw
Please check IMEI label under the battery for your actual phone model.
An i9020a won't work on 3G 1700 band, you are getting 2G GPRS data speed (the little G on signal icon)
Apparently I'm just not in tmobile's 3g network, didn't even occur to me considering every other major provider works great here. I also didn't realize that just the G symbol was 2g or it probably would have clicked. So anyone wanna trade a 20t for 20a?
And both sims worked, but with the at&t card I only had an edge connection.

Intermittent connectivity.

This keeps on happening: (On the VZW M8)

whilst connected to tmobile. I'm Super CID, and GSM unlocked, any advice? I've tried a few roms already...
If you have battery saver on then it will intermittently cut data off when the phone isn't active. Seems to do it fairly often it you stop using it even for a few minutes.

It never did this on verizon.
Bat saver isn't on.
I have this same issue using the Verizon M8 on tmobile network. I dont believe there is a fix yet.. maybe the next verizon firmware update will correct these issues. I tried both verizon radios and same issues losing connectivity/signal. Constant airplane mode on/off and manually reconnecting to network seems like the only solution at this point.
If anyone has had any luck using this phone on Tmobile's network without these issues.. please advise.
You messed with Advanced Signal Status much?
Go into "Additional Info" and setting the "Preferred Network Type" to "GSM/WCDMA/LTE Auto" or "GSM Only" and see if that helps. Maybe play around with the other options as well. I actually have this happen occasionally on Verizon's network and have to force my phone onto LTE because it gets stuck on 1x or 3G in areas where I should have full LTE signal. Seems like HTC/Verizon can improve these basebands a lot in my experience, because handoffs are pretty bad overall. This phone doesn't hesitate to drop to 1x in my area, where my previous Note 2 almost never saw 1x.
If that doesn't work, you can always toggle airplane mode or the "turn off radio" button in that menu. That should force it to reinitialize the SIM and pick back up on the best data signal available (at least that always works for me when I want to force it to 4G/LTE).

Calling Problem (Airtel 4G)

[SOLVED] Can't make a call. It disconnects on its own while showing the message as that in the screenshot that I've attached.

(On LTE). Doesn't work on 3G as well. On 2G, it's fine. But I'm not satisfied.
Current ROM- CM13.0 Unofficial by sultanxda.
But this problem has been there on every ROM I've tried. This problem was not there when I was using a 3G SIM. I've tried switching 4G SIMs but the problem persists. Please help! I want to use LTE and make calls together without changing the settings each time. The signals remain there the rest of the time but it gets disconnected as soon as I make a call. FUN FACT- SMSs work fine. Note- This isn't a ROM problem. I've called the technical support but they just don't know how to handle ****. This is very disappointing.
I'm using an Airtel SIM (India)
Thanks!

Where in India? I use Airtel 4G and never experienced this issue.

In Faridabad (NCR). I just don't know what's wrong. I've tried almost everything.

Airtel doesn't support voice over LTE. But your network should be automatically switching to 2g when a call is made and then back to 4g after the call. There will be no data access during the call except for WiFi.

What about that dialog box in the screenshot?

Try going to a place with a good signal and doing a network scan and select airtel manually instead of automatic.
There's a tower right next to my place, so I always have full connectivity. And I've already tried selecting Airtel. The problem still persists.

If you know how to flash custom baseband/modems, maybe you can see if a different one can fix the problem.
If that doesn't work, then a factory reset is the last resort.
Nope, tried that as well. I perform factory reset every now and then.

Well, I forgot to mention that the issue got resolved automatically after a few days. I don't know what actually fixed it. Maybe jgcaap's ROM, or a complete wipe. But it was fixed. Weird issue.

Mobile data connection freezing problems - G930F

I bought my S7 less than a week ago and I notice something odd happening with my mobile data connection.
When I'm using 3G (Mobilcom-debitel_Vodafone/Germany), my connection is consistently laggy. Every action that I require connection for takes a couple of seconds to be executed, if executed at all. For instance, click to download an image/audio/video/etc in whatsapp, it takes 5+ sec to start the download; open the browser, takes 5+ sec to load the page; open Deezer, takes 5+ sec to start loading the data... and so on. I notice this problem since the first time I used 3G on the phone. Everything is up-to-date and I installed the phone from scratch, app by app, no backup/transfer from other phone. On my previous S6 I didn't have this problem.
Some information that might be useful:
- I use 3G/2G (auto-connect), no LTE/3G/2G
- I'm usually with BT/Wifi/3G enabled at the same time, not necessarily connected to a device or network
- The data icon keeps the up arrow on, but the down arrow off until I actually receive data and the request is processed
- If I try to turn off the mobile data connection/put in airplane mode, it takes the same amount of time for the connection icon to disappear (5+ seconds)
Is it a known issue? Anyone with the same problem?

Just checking: you know that the phone is brand new, 2 days old, right? Just checking... Also, since the first time I went outside to use 3G I noticed the problem.
Did you have this Problem by using WiFi only?
2nd Option is run a Speedtest (Ookla) to Check the ping.

No, I haven't. Just my usual ****ty router problems, but other than that the wifi is fine.

I did it already and there are no problems there, as you can see below. 3G speed on my plan is limited to 21mbps.

On a side note, I did a reset of the network settings and apparently it got better. I'm still testing it, can't say yet it's fixed, but I noted some improvement for sure.

As I posted, resetting network settings was apparently a solution, but this morning it was clear that something was still pretty odd.
I will consider starting from scratch. I'm so lazy, it takes a long while to config the whole phone again, but apparently it's worth a try.
