So once in a while I won't receive some texts. Example: I was texting my GF last nite perfectly fine, but then this morning she texted me at 8am and I never got the text (not even right now). Also last nite my friend called me 3 times and I did not receive not ONE of those calls! He also texted me once and I did not get the text either. What could be the issue here, I'm very confused and starting to get annoyed because that's kind of a big issue/deal to not be receiving some texts/calls.
Does this sound like a faulty phone, or stupid Sprint? TIA!!

I think it might be a sprint problem as i have that same problem from time to time. Same thing happened to my s3 when i had it and sometimes i have the same problem on my S5. My friend called me last night to tell me he was outside my house and i didn't get the call or any missed call notification yet. definitely a Sprint problem.

I've seen a lot of dropped calls lately and 4 other sprint members I know have said the same thing.
I constantly get the same ****. Calls not comin through, text not comin or going sometimes. Its Definitely a sprint problem! I just had a note 3 before my gs5 that did the same exact stuff!

Glad to see its not only me/my phone. Although I'm pissed at Sprint, guess I need to drastically lower my expectations for them -__-

It's been worse lately I'm sure trying to get HD voice and some other upgrades working are prolly putting their network in disarray.
Try switching to 3G only mode. If that fixes it, it's Sprint.
Also if you have google voice enable on your phone, disable it for like a day as that is causing problems too that I know.

The same thing happened to me with the GS5. I think its the GS5. I went back to GS3 and I'm able to receive calls and text.

I am having an issue where people on the AT&T network are telling me when I send txts they are receiving a significant portion of the messages twice. Is this a verizon issue or a phone issue?
I am running DAS Bamf remix 1.7.
If anyone could help it would be much appreciated.
Okay I just was told by someone on Verizon they are receiving duplicate txts as well. Any suggestions, I am using the default SMS msging app that comes with sense.
i've had it happen to people off and on over the years, so I would hope that its not a phone issue.
problem is today its happened a ton of times so I am getting concerned they had me pull my sim card which made no difference
Do you think I should unroot back to stock before calling again?
I reverted back to stock and havent had a issue yet, wonder why
yeah ive had this happen to me rarely, but i dont think its because of the phone, my theory is that its the network just doing it randomly, but thats just my thought
Even at 100% stock it still did it.
I am going to call them up again. I think its random too cause some days it doesnt happen I am being told by my friends.
did that to me the other day as well. Stock, not rooted thunderbolt. I think its a verizon problem.
Happens to me to like every too months.....

Hey guys.....
I have an issue with a phone that maybe you all can help with.
This is my second phone doing the same thing the last one was doing.
(yes I've searched)
So occasionally while connected to wifi I dont receive any calls, texts, or emails until I pick up and use my phone for something.
Just now when I picked up my phone to check the weather at 6:30pm and I got 4 text messages, 1 VM and 2 emails all ranging back to around the last time I used my phone. (5:45ish)
This is really irritating as I have missed some important calls lately and it really pisses off my wife...lol...she assumes I'm gaming and ignoring her.
I remember reading somewhere that this phone has issues with going to sleep and Smart Sync.
Specs:
ATT
HTC One XL
ViperXL 2.4.1 (it does this on the stock rom as well)
ViperXL kernel
Thanks for any and all help!!!
I seem to have had similar issues except it was doing it off WiFi. They way I started noticing it was I set my weather to update every hour and I would find it would be 4 hours ago last udate. I also noticed texts coming out of order and calls going to vmail without ringing. I played around flashing different radios ,roms and even changed sim card multiple times. I came to the obvious conclusion that it was actually att issue. I live in a rural area where I get H+ but no LTE. I suspect that the tower cell fills up then puts active calls and data priority. I had atrix before my hox and it did same thing. Its really annoying. So I find myself rebooting phone and it solves issue at least for couple hours.

Im having the same issues. Started a thread about a month ago. Im on my second phone as well. Had AT&T reset something on their end, did an RUU, factory reset, wiped caches and data...nothing. I really believe it's an AT&T issue.

I don't think it's an issue with Att.
I just got a the email for this, it is an hour and a half late. I am connected to Wi-Fi and my phone is set to "smart sync".
If this was an ATT issue then why didn't I get my email?
The phone receiving emails while on Wi-Fi has nothing to do with ATT.

I also have the same problem. On Christmas I sent out a mass text to people and never got any responses. Then about 12hrs after I sent a message to someone else and got 100+ texts and 3 vms. It was ridiculous. I'm on ATT and running Nocturnal Dirty ROM. But it also did it on other ROMs. I would love to know what causes this problem and how to fix it...
Just curious as to what others are doing to deal with this issue (discussed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47276465 ).
I just bought my N5 two days ago and, while I have an iPhone 5s to fall back on, it would be really nice to be able to use the phone that I just bought. I was thinking of setting up a Tasker profile or something to switch radios based on some factor or another. Maybe let it drop to 1xRTT when on WIFI (when I'm home or at work) and use LTE elsewhere (I like to stream music in my car with my phone - 1xRTT is no good for that ). I really just need a way to see when someone has attempted to call, so that I can call back. Oh well. Someone will figure something out.
So how about you? What are you doing to cope?
Using a different phone?
"Screw everyone who calls me, I need DATA" ?
"Sprint can suck it, I'm switching to [other carrier] because this is the phone I want." ?
Something else?
Hate to double post, but I thought people might like to know.
For whatever reason today I felt compelled to switch back to my N5 from my iPhone 5s. To do so on Sprint (apparently) requires a factory reset.
After factory resetting and reactivating my Nexus 5, it magically works the way it should. LTE when I need data, but I still get phone calls and texts like normal.
Unless Sprint literally fixed the problem overnight, I have no idea what happened.
So if you're having the tri-band LTE issue feel free to give this a shot. I'm located in Central PA, for what it's worth.

it could have been an error in activation possibly causing the problem. a simple prl and profile update may have fixed the issue for you initially. if you didnt try that, that is.
No I'm in Hagerstown and lte just started working last night for me too. Now my problem is making phone calls. When I'm on Lte I can't make phone calls. I cant receive them just fine but wjen I try to call out it says call sent and immediately says call ended. Can u make calls on Lte?

I had tried the PRL and profile updates when I was trying to get it to work last night, as per some instructions that, I think, I found on Sprint's website.

I have had the Note Edge for Verizon since launch day about a week and a half ago. Love the phone and everything seemed to be working fine until I noticed yesterday that I was not getting calls all day. I was in urban areas with full signal. Just voicemails here and there but never rang. Had some friends try to call me and it would ring 4 or 5 times on their end then go to voicemail, but on my phone never rang. After a reboot, i still had the same problem. After a second reboot it now seems to be getting calls. I have advanced calling 1.0 activated. Anyone else having this problem with the note edge? If so any easy fixes?
Have you tried the standard profile and prl updates.
Hmm, no I have not yet. I had assumed LTE phones automatically updated the prl. I am traveling now but will try that when I get back into my city tonight.
It seems there is no option to update the system profile. It also seems that you cannot do a prl update either by dialing *228 on the note edge. Every time I try it kicks me from the dialer with a message that says verizon Sim card stores this information and updates automatically. Not sure what else I can do. I have been getting calls since this incident. Maybe I'll just wait it out and see if it happens again.
It seems i may have found the issue. I called my phone from another phone and it didn't ring .. again. i turned off Advanced Calling 1.0 and tried again and it worked. Turned it on and called again, didnt work. It seems with advanced calling 1.0 activated, i cannot receive calls at times. I suppose i will leave it off, but this bothers me because with the note edge you cannot use the internet while on calls unless you have Advanced Calling 1.0 active. Lame.
I have advanced calling on and am getting calls.

I as well. RyanATF, call Customer Support & have them refresh your phone.
I also was getting calls about 50% of the time which is why it was so strange. I called customer support this morning. They checked everything and refreshed my phone. Level 2 support does not think it is my phone that is the issue. They sent the ticket to the VZW switcher engineers and will call me back on friday with an answer. They think that maybe the VoLTE network is the issue in my area as my phone is not having any connectivity problems.
There is a known issue with advanced calling.
So the title pretty much sums it up. I have a rooted sprint nexus 5 running stock 5.0.1. And I'm a still randomly missing calls and texts. Phone doesn't ring. Missed texts and missed call notifications don't appear until rebooting the phone.
I know this was a problem with 4.4 on the nexus 5 but I thought 5.0 was supposed to fix this. Am I do in something wrong? Help would be much appreciated.
Check your network
I'm having the same problem
I have had a Nexus 5 for the last year. It was a great phone but did miss some calls, but had good reception. I recently broke that phone and purchased a newer one. The reception is awful. I had to buy a microcell booster just to work it in my home where I didn't have to before. If the phone has one bar you can't receive or send calls. If it has two bars it's a crap shoot. Often times when I call there will be two bars and as soon as I press send to call someone the phone drops to no bars. Is this a software or phone or hardware problem?
My issue seems to be receiving texts and calls while on wifi. If so, I will get texts really late, or out of order. With phone calls i just may note receive them at all, nor get a missed call or voicemail notification. I've heard some peopl say that the issue an LTE one and switching to 3G helps the problem but I've found that recently that is not the case. If I am on wifi my sprint nexus 5 just cant seem to get it right...
For Sprint, there could be issues with the signaling for voice/sms when on LTE since the N5 is a single radio for everything. Another thing it could be is the modem version. Also if you got a replacement it's possible the connections are just loose inside or one of them is disconnected for the antenna.
I'm on sprint too and I get the notorious double texts has to be something on sprints end

Sorry to necropost, but i'm reviving this to see if anyone else is still having the same problem??? Has this been fixed on Android 5.1 or 5.1.1 ? There has to be a better solution than having to be on 3G and keeping wifi on only when phone is awake. Help or advanced knowledge of the problem would be appreciated.
Its Sprint, it sucks
