Hi guys, I recently got a Motorola RAZR HD, originally locked to Rogers in Canada. I unlocked it, and started using it for a few days with Virgin mobile Canada and everything seemed to work okay.
But I reset it recently to give to my dad, and now he only gets 1 bar of network signal, and half the time it's not connected to any network.
I've reset it multiple times and am getting the same problem.
Any suggestions to why this is happening?

Hi All,
My wife and I both recently got (ex-demo) Bell HTC One S phones. We had them unlocked by cellunlocker.net for use on Rogers network in Ottawa. We followed directions given by Rogers support staff entering the APN settings. My wife's phone seems to work ok, occasionally picking up 3G (never LTE) coverage.
My phone however, seems to only pick up Edge (mostly) and occasionally G network connections. Never 3G or LTE. I cannot send MMS messages and my mobile data is extremely slow (as you would expect on Edge network)!!
I have phoned Rogers multiple times, bought a new SIM which made no difference. I am starting to beat my head against the wall.
Does anyone know why this may be happening or can suggest a fix??
Cheers,
I fixed the issue with a hard reset. Not sure what was actually causing it!!?
Hi all
I recently got a new Nexus 5 (my old one decided to have a swim in the sea and is now in the shop for repair).
The issue I have with the new one (4.4.4 stock, rooted) is that 3G and 4G are extremely slow. Speedtest shows varying ping numbers (I have seen from 35ms to 2500ms), download is ridiculous (0.05mbit) and upload is quite good, surprisingly - around 5mbit.
I am in Greece and using Cosmote network. It doesn't seem to be a network issue because 2 friends with the same network and data package, one with Nexus 5 and the other with iphone 5, get great speeds (around 25-30 mbit).
At first I thought is was a SIM issue, since I was using the one that went for a swim. So I went and got a new SIM. Same problem.
I tried using another friends SIM from another network (WIND) on my phone, worked great. 27mbit.
The problem is the same with 3G and 4G.
Any ideas? Any ways to troubleshoot this better?
Have you checked your APN settings? That's the only thing I can think of at this point. I would check them against your friend who has an N5 on the same network and make sure everything matches exactly.
Checked it, they are the same. I talked with a Cosmote representative and they will look into my account settings in case something is wrong there. The only common denominator in the problem is my mobile account. Might have something to do with a trip I did abroad a few days ago and the roaming data limit that was imposed on my account after reaching 50mb d/l. Maybe they forgot to lift the limit when I returned to Greece.
I'm sitting in my office where I would normally get at least 2 bars of LTE, instead I'm only getting HSPA connection (4-5 bars). Same thing occurred at home, only HSPA when I normally would have LTE.
This started happening when I flashed the factory image when Lollipop got released 2 days ago.
Anyone else experiencing the same issue?
EDIT: Contacted Nexus support and they said that they're having issues with ATT on the east coast and there may be an issue with my sim. Going to contact ATT now.
EDIT2: Solved. ATT set my phone as a 3G device so it never picked up LTE. They fixed it, all good now.

How is that a fix? You now have no LTE!
Hey Everyone,
I have searched multiple threads and google for an answer to fix the Droid Maxx issue on ATT. Whenever I put the phone on global it works fine for about 20mins getting HSPA+ then all the sudden tries to pick up 4GLTE and the phone stops working no data no phones. So I end up having to switch airplane mode on and off to get it to work again for another 20mins. I can only get it to work when I have it on LTE/GSM/UMTS and I only accept GSM networks which then sticks me on EDGE only. I tried putting in APN settings for ATT and still get the same results when its on global or GSM/UMTS both selected. Ive read everywhere that it works fine on ATT and Tmobile GSM HPSA+ Networks which it does until it tries to go onto 4G LTE network. Any advice would be great thanks!
Hmmm So I continued to look for a solution and it seems 4.4 has issues with LTE on GSM carriers. I found a nice little app that lets me turn off LTE and I am able to get HPSA+ again and no issues with calls/messages. I guess until a fix comes out I wont be able to get LTE but no biggy the battery life on the Maxx makes up for it. I could always root it and go down to 4.2 I have found some posts that said it works.
Is it fully updated?

I've been using my Maxx on Cricket (AT&T towers) for a while and I'll get LTE when I first boot up the phone but after maybe 5 minutes it'll go to HSPA+ and stay there until I reboot again. Kind of weird but I haven't had any data issues period.
Hello guys! I am christian Abaidoo from Ghana. I use a motorola atrix hd (at&t, jelly bean). Few months ago, my phone was working perfectly until one day I mistakenly selected USA band and lost my network. I then flashed it with cyanogenmod 10.1.3. it was working perfectly but I was only able to access 2g network. Whiles using the cyanogenMod, i searched and searched on the internet for the stock rom for my phone until i found it. I then flashed my phone back to stock rom. Everything is perfect except the fact that i still can only get 2g network. Instead of showing the 4g signal on the status bar as a Motorola Atrix HD phone should so, the 'E' signal rather shows. I cant access phone information using *#*#4636#*#* so I use LTE Settings.apk When I set my phone to 3g, my network cuts off completely and says 'No service'. I thought when i flashed back to stock, i should have everything intact but its not so. I still cant get 3g, I can only get 2g. Guys please i need your help,. 2g is very frustrating. Any ideas on where the problem may be coming from and how i can solve it?. Thanks very much
