Is there any fix for the like 100kp or less download speed? I can have full signal even full LTE and this problem occurs. It didn't happen on my S2 or even my S4 that I was using

Go to Google play store and download the app called Network signal speed booster by mcstealth and run it.....I been running it for a day and noticed a increase in signal strength and a definite decrecase in 4g dropouts......not a complete fix but it definitely helped a lot...hope it's not just coincidence cause its only been a day of using the app but I thought I'd share anything that seems to help....

There are many different ones. Which one did you get?

Another thing is if your are in a 3G only area, go into phone info app and select GSM/CDMA Auto PRL. Then switch back in a 4G area for 4G signal.

Data drops?
Never had such a thing on this phone...

My understanding is that battery life will be better when I'm on WiFi as opposed to lte. Is that true? Lte is a lot faster than my WiFi at home, and I have unlimited data. I'm just trying to figure out which one I should use at home.

They say that if your LTE has a great signal that it uses less power then Wi-Fi.
In my experience I have 4 bars of 4g and have downloads of 50MB and Wi-Fi of only 15MB.Seems even with my four bars of 4g it rapes my battery.

I get about the same. Sometimes better on 4G.
Verizon Samsung SIII
ROM: Jelly Beans 8
THEME: Magnum Cream
I suspect it is going to vary from person to person/location to location.
For me, WiFi battery life appears to be a bit better. Plus I don't have unlimited anyway.
Someone that has a strong LTE may find that LTE battery life is better.
If I still had unlimited, I would chew that data like it was my job.

Regardless as you can see Wi-Fi has better battery life

Either way if your at home you have access to electricity to charge it...

On my Nexus 5, WiFi is fine downstairs near the router (BT Hub 3).
But upstairs in my room where I usually am, speeds are very very slow. Less than 1mbps. On my N4 & N10 speeds are fine in my room like the rest of the house, but my nexus 5 is getting bad speeds.
What is the issue? What can I do? I've tried changing WiFi to 2.4ghz only but no such luck.

Bump. Anyone know?

Anybody else having issues with LTE. On my phone it always wants to revert to H or H+ I have to cycle airplane mode to get LTE to come on pretty frequently. Anybody else seen issues with this?

that would be because in your area there is a better hspa+ connection than a lte connection. if you try forcing lte in that kind of situation, it could lower your battery life due to bad signal.
Ok, its just weird because my wife has the n5 too and she seems to be on LTE more than I am. And usually gets better speeds too. Maybe I will just take her place on the couch! By the way Simms do you EVER stop helping!?

The S5 seemed relatively unimpressive, however the download booster feature seems interesting where it uses lte and wifi for data. I was curious as to whether someone could port that over to the Nexus 5 or create their own implementation.
P0rn download b00ster. Moar plox google
Anyways I think it's hardware

I think it is implemented in software. There is a demo for using both LTE and WiFi on Galaxy S2 on YouTube already. (Search for "Energy-efficient multi-link video streaming on smartphones")
This would be REALLY nice feature to have. I actually might root for it!
Im pretty sure that it is software related, because I remember reading about an app for android that does this for you, but for the life of me can't remember the name of the app.

oh i am going to test
Any feedback? 4/5 stars on the Play Store from a N5 user.
Unfortunately I have no WiFi connection to test...
My LTE connection blows away my home Wi-Fi connection.... I don't see how I could benefit from a booster. I would think it would utilize bandwidth from my cellular data connection and not touch my Wi-Fi. Just another gimmick to pay twice as much as you need for a device imho.

It looks like an Awesome app. I'll be testing this on my Nexus 5 soon. Anyone with a nexus 5 have any good results?
