Hi there
I recently bought an Alcatel 991d and replaced it a couple of times due to signal loss and sim freezing (no internet, sms, and calls on either the sims). I passed to a Samsung Y duos which is more stable although it seems to still have some signal problem (when this signals is lost it does not come back although a good coverage area is reached, 3g icon disappear and no internet surfing is allowed, sims freezing (rare). With the Alcatel other people experiences serious problems expecially under poor coverage areas and hypothesized the problem could be related to the continuous jumping from 3g to 2g cells. Actually my Samsung y duos goes nice and smooth when I only use the 2g network. Do you think that countinous jumping form 3g to 2g can cause problem to android smartphone in general? Can you think to a solution for this?
thanks a lot!
my friend have similar problems on Gigabyte dual sim phone (I forget model name). didn't found solution yet
Hi guys,
I have bought a (new) refurbished HTC One S from china at a very good price but it has a problem:
When I enable 3g, the network signal drops to zero and the phone turns off immediately.
I went to another city (bigger) and there it worked with 3g enabled, but with bad signal. When I left the city, signal dropped to zero and phone turned off.
In my town I've never had signal issues with other phones, with 3g.
In "only gsm" mode, it works perfectly, with signal between -63 and -90 db.
I tried all European RUU's and many custom roms, the problem remains the same.
What do you think? Hardware problem at final amplifier? (3g consumption is bigger I think).
I've tried also with elementalX with extra voltage or overclock. No results.
Hello,
My N5 was working perfectly and suddenly this week the phone won't connect to any 2G network, when i switch to 3G/LTE it work normally but in my area there isn't a good coverage and it drains the battery, i tried other sims same problem and when i do w network search i get no carrier listed.
Any help please!
The phone is excellent, however the signal is too weak both in 2G and 3G mode. The local company of telecommunications checked the network and is OK. They said that the problem is the phone, hot the line. How can I fix the problem?
We know how much you like to stream, ahem, "videos", and so cellular data is mega-important. Rate this thread to express how you think the OnePlus 5's LTE performs. A higher rating indicates that it's fantastic: throughput is excellent and signal strength is top-notch.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add.
Device runs fantastically on T-Mobile network. This is Band 4 (20mhz) + Band 2 (10mhz) speed test. I haven't hit 3xCA yet but I know I will soon.
It's very fast. The image below I got yesterday but in areas I would get 25-30mbps I sometimes only pull 3-5mbps down and the upload will still be 15mbps. Kinda strange. But even at those slower speeds anything I do browser or youtube is instant. So not sure if the app is wonky with the OP5. I mean I shouldn't be able to stream 1080p YouTube content with 2-4mbps download speeds, but I do.
Does anyone use 3g instead of 4g? The problem I'm faceing is that it takes sometimes 5-10 sec before it starts loading the site when using 3g. This problem does not occur when using 4g. I didn't experience the same problem with my Oneplus 3
i have very bad reception with my OP5. At Places where my OP3 had 3G or even 4G the OP5 has E or sometimes no internet... Only at places like a forest or in a basement under an airport (where i work) but my old OP3 has great reception with the same SIM card. Maybe i use the wrong settings or wrong SIM slot?
dual sim inquiry
does the op5 has "Dual SIM Dual Active type" of cellular connection?

I experience exactly the same problem.
When I'm on 3g I can't load anything the first 10 seconds when screen is switched on. I have tested several SIM cards in my op5 (everything works fine with other phone)
It's extremely annoying
Best in class never experienced any problem.
In parts of Rajasthan where cellular reception is very bad, everyone runs toward me to have a call:laugh:

No I didn't... I guess it is a hardware problem but i don't wanna send it to OP so I live with it =)
Same here
Perfect on Brazil!
Carrier: Claro
Could be better, especially weak when on H+.
I've been using my OP5 since February when I bought a used one off of Swappa. I have found that I actually get better LTE in places that my N5X didn't get good signal (I had voice, but data was about as fast as 2G even though it was on LTE). Now, I get decent speeds in those same areas (higher end 3G probably akin to HSPA speeds).
I would give five stars, but the problem with the 3g network is awful. In my city there are no 4g/lte operators, my internet conection does not work, I have to constantly switch on and of the airplane mode, it's annoying.
