[Q] Immediate Call Failure?? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So When I try to make a phone call, my calls immediately end( I get the call ended screen instantly). I have full cell service and I still receive texts.
Whats going on?

Airplane mode on then off.

That did it, but it happens intermittently . This is the second time its happened. The first time I thought it was a signal issue. Maybe this is a bug with cataclysm Rom?I also disabled forcing LTE, I'll leave that setting off and report back this week. In the mean time, is this a common nexus issue?

R u on Lte? This is what happened to me when I was on Lte until my towers got updated? If u r go to mobile networks and change it to 3g and then u can make calls.

[Q] how to avoid sleep mode during the night?

During the night my HTC one s s3 goes into some kind of sleep mode, which turns off my internet or WiFi connection, preventing me to receive messages via Skype, gTalk... or emails. Is there any way to avoid going in this mode, some kind of "always on", I don't know... I couldn't find a setting for this, searched everywhere... Thanks in advance

If you go into advanced settings under Wi-Fi, you can tell Wi-Fi to never sleep. That should solve your issue?
Also, are you on stock?

Not the same thing. If I remember right this turns all data off and also does other things as well and the only fix I can think of is the tweak app that some roms have.
Stock 4.0.4 Europe. WiFi is set to never sleep (keep WiFi on during sleep >> ALWAYS) and it sleeps all right during the night. Any setting for 3G? I have an unlimited data plan, so it would be ok to keep it always on.
Edit: best WiFi performance is set off. Would this make any difference?

Don't think it will since its a power saver feature that you having issues with but like I said it can be turned off with custom rom.

[Q] If I need to toggle Airplane mode on/off to recover signal..

all the time (well, most days) does this indicate a SIM problem or a phone/rom problem? Normally seems to happen when I send a few texts consecutive, I need to toggle airplane mode to recover my signal.
Probably sim.

other people are having this issue too.

I have the same issue, Ive done some research and it seems like its a Android problem that when you loose signal for an extended period of time it wont reconnect to. I am having this issue after switching to T-Mobile and getting poor reception in my home.

Signal dropping then coming back

I'm on T-Mobile here in the US. Not sure if anyone else is having issues. I've had my phone since the 6th. Up until yesterday it's all been perfect. Now every now and then the service just drops to "no service" followed by "emergency calls only" then finally comes back to normal. When I have signal, it's good. 4-5 bars. The drops are random. I'm stock + root.
Anyone else having problems?
Same thing is happening with Rogers

Hmmm... I have tried a couple ROMs but none lasted long enough without bugs to notice. I also flashed the stock image again just to be sure and it's still there.
There's an ongoing thread already on XDA:

Also, there is a thread where a rep from Google, Paul, has acknowledged the issue. Please post your issues there for them to track/investigate:

Unlocked, stock rooted, stock kernal, and I'm having the same issues. Very slow when switching from lte to 3g and back to lte, sometimes it doesn't switch back to lte. Also the loss of signal. I though if factory reset back to stock but I guess that's not the issue.

I don't think it's the networks, I think it's the hardware

According to this link:

It's a software issue.. I am getting the same thing on Rogers. I only get it after a call or when sending SMS. Frustrating issue, to put it mildly
I switched to bricked kernel my connections have been solid. Later I also switched to the Cataclysm ROM and so far so good.
I think it is a software issue.

N5 and LTE + Voice

Does anyone else have an issue where the LTE signal is not reestablished after a phone call? I have to reboot my phone to get the LTE signal back, otherwise it remains on HSPA+. I am in an area with full LTE signal (all bars). This is driving me crazy...

When a call gets routed through it uses the HSPA+ or HSPA or EDGE network to handle calls currently LTE does not do this so it may take awhile to reestablish your connection thou lte again
It NEVER reestablishes the connection though, stays on H.

I have no idea then, after about 30 seconds on T-Mobile the LTE returns again after being on H

Have you just tried throwing it in airplane mode for a second to kill the radio and see if it pulls and LTE connection after? I'm on AT&T and every once in awhile I'll have to do that when switching between cell towers while driving.
hmmm... that's strange, you shouldn't have to do anything. mine goes on H during the call, as soon as end the call it immediately (about a second) switches back to LTE. I'm not rooted or anything. everything is stock.
not sure if this will help but try doing factory reset and clear cache and such?
it would be easier if you gave us more details.
Custom ROM? kernel? rooted?
Everything is completely stock, never rooted etc. Seems to be slightly improved today. It has actually come back into LTE a couple times without rebooting. I've also tried the airplane trick a couple times and that has worked on occasion as well. Still hit or miss so I may just RMA it. Appreciate everyone's help!

Don't mean to necro this thread, but just looking for some additional input.
RMAd my device and the new one exhibits the same behavior which leads me to believe it's the network in my area. Anyone ever experience the same thing especially in area with new LTE?

3G data hangs

Having a weird issue thats been persistent since I got the phone to be honest back in January, when I am using the phone 3g data will hang and all services that require internet will not work. And the 3g icon stays white and not brown so its not a connection issue, never happened on my s3 once and i have been with three for 3 years now. Texts also do not send when this happens. Anyone? All stock no root. Happens rarely but when it does it will not come back for about 10 minutes
