[Q] Nexus 5 4G not working - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Today I tried 4G on my Nexus 5 & Note 3. So I went somewhere that it has 4G/LTE coverage
The problem????
I am on COSMOTE GR (Greece) and tried with my Note 3 the 4G. The signal was excellent (WITH NOTE 3!!!)
On Nexus 5, with the same sim card, I couldn't receive 4G (I am on Stock Rom. Also tried with SlimKat 6.0)
Any help??

Maybe the Nexus doesn't support the LTE bands for Cosmote?

Then I don't know why it wouldn't work.. Try different radio, maybe it will help.. for me personally 4G never works reliably on my N5.

for me, lte always works reliably, i never ever see 3G or edge. speeds around 60mbps here.
in the phone settings, mobile networks, do you have lte as the preferred network?

Yes, LTE is set. Don't know why it is unreliable. Must be my stupid country :banghead:

try this..
dial *#*#4636#*#*
that will take you to hidden phone codes. chose phone info, then scroll down, youll find a type of connection that you are on, press that. choose lte only. this way it will avoid the other connections. if you do get an lte signal, change it to lte/gsm(or you wont get phone calls). if it doesnt connect to lte, then either the n5 doesnt support your carrier, or your provider
hasnt set up lte for your n5 account. your note 3, did you try the same sim card as you n5?

not your country, your provider. it could be that they space out their towers a bit further away than us providers. that would make it not as reliable.

then its not seeing the lte signal. the sim card that you had in the note 3, is that your n5 simcard? can you try the note 3 simcard in your n5? i have a feeling that it might be your providers fault, maybe they have you entered into the system wrong. that happens, and fairly often.

so, with the n5 simcard, your note 3 is getting lte, but your n5 isnt? where did you buy your n5? is it an american version or the european version? the two versions support different lte bands.

Nexus 5 won't get 3G or 4G network

Hi.
My nexus 5 is driving me crazy.
All of a sudden it stopped getting 3G or 4G LTEnetwork. It just stayed in 2G (EDGE).
I called the carrier support, they don't know what to do.
This sim works fine in other phones.
Other sims also do not get 3g or 4g network on this phone.
I switched my sim, enbled 4G service and nada.
It seems the phone can't see the 3g or 4g networks.
If i go to the *#*#4636#*#* menu and force the network type to LTE and then search for mobile networks it doesn't find any.
Same for WDCMA only.
If i set it to LTE preferred, WCDMA preferred or LTE/GSM auto (PRL) it finds the network and it connects in 2G EDGE.
I've done a full reset, flashed stock, tried several radios, nothing.
Im in Portugal and my carrier is Optimus.
If i go to the "Select radio band" option in that menu it only shows "USA BAND".
Is it suposed to be like that?
Also, when i reboot my phone in the notification area i get a notification saying: "Restricted access changed". I never got that before when the 3g connection was working.

Change it back to "GSM/LTE". Then go to the APN settings and make sure that they're correct. That's the most common fix. I don't know what your carrier is, so I can't tell you the settings, but you can probably find them somewhere.
Worst case, flash the factory image and see if it still happens.

Well you never said you had the right APN
And you say that other sims work fine in this phone. What does that mean exactly? They get 4G?

Oops, I read that wrong. I really don't know what to do now. You said you've flashed the radio, factory image, and pretty much tried everything else you can try.

Canadian OPO Owners How Is Your Signal

I want to know how good is your signal strength, with data turned on and off. My One has terrible signal strength in the GTA, where there are plenty of Bell Towers. I don't know if this is a hardware issue, or a software issue with CM11s 33r. I would like to know your experiences.
Don't know about the GTA but in Montreal, i get full signal bars and full LTE outside. Inside it can go down to one bar.
Hi,
I'm with Rogers in montreal and the 3G is very good, similar to my old nexus 3, but LTE is low in most places and easy lost inside of buildings. Also it doesn't switch fast when lost LTE. Since I don't use data very much, I leave it on 3G and I put the LTE togle in the status bar to swith it if Ineed fast data (and if I got a signal of course). Try to put it on 3G if your reception is very low. I check on the web ant this problem is common with all LTE phones because there are less towers with LTE than 3G.

Hi - Using Rogers in the North York area I am pleasantly surprised how well the OPO picks up signal. My older iPhone 5 had less reception, though it may have at times shown more signal bars. The OPO has been good signal wise in the GTA for me on Rogers.

There's actually a Canadian OnePlus One thread already, check here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/canadian-oneplus-owners-t2885996
I live in the GTA and Markham, always full bars of LTE downtown, but occassionally 2 bars LTE. I always have H+ wherever I go, but when I take the GO Train, occasionally I would be on GPRS (2G). In the University I am stuck on H+ but sometimes 1-2 bars LTE.
I don't get bad signal at all. 33R modem.

Chinese OPO or International OPO?
I ask because of the preloaded modem built into the phone. If you came with Chinese OPO, just flash the latest modem on your phone using fastboot a few times to make sure you wipe off the original ColorOS modem.
Works on my friend's OPO too, and he's on Rogers. He's got great signal now.

I ma using the international One Plus One. I am currently using CM11 nightlies. The thing is turning off LTE altogether and switching to a 3G network gives me great service. But when I switch to LTE, even with LTE turned off, my service is terrible.

Go into fastboot and flash the modems in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/ref-oneplus-one-modem-collection-t2858734
Try them out, look at the chart at the bottom to compare which ones you should try. Same colors mean you only need to try each color once. This does not go the same for 33R and CM11 M8. They have different CRC32's so treat them differently.

Thanks for the suggestion, but you think the modem is my issue? I treid flashing several already, including the 33r, 25r and Color OS. I am currently on the Cm11 nightlies, which have their own radio. Do you think I should RMA my device?

I don't think you should, modems aren't chips that easily go bad just like that.

I will stay on the safe side, do not want to ruin my phone further. Will Test the CM nightly modem for a bit, and hopefully by then One Plus releases a new OTA. Really considering returning the phone.
By the way, how is your signal with LTE turned off, but in your mobile networks settings you are still on an LTE network

No 4g on MT7-TL10 european version

Hi All
I'm having trouble connecting to 4g (band 20) in the UK with my MT7-TL10 european, gold version.
Has anyone else had similar issues, can someone shed some light?
I've spoken to Tesco Mobile and they have confirmed my sim/tariff is setup for 4g. Also called Huawei, and they checked my model via IMEI no. and said it should have a 4g signal with the network I'm on. I tried it with an EE sim and received a 4g signal instantly.
Thanks

L10 or TL10? Because TL10 supports only 1, 3, 7 band FDD LTE.
Mine is the MT7-TL10...
Can a mod change the thread title to reflect my model no.
Forgot to mention, it is the dual sim model

Yeah I tried an EE sim and 4g works, just doesn't seem to receive a 4g connection on o2 or Tesco Mobile, do you mind checking to see if either, o2 or Tesco works on yours?
Also can you tell me which firmware version your Mate 7 came installed with? Mine is B125 as shown in screenshot above.

Yeah I tried an EE sim and 4g works, just doesn't seem to receive a 4g connection on o2 or Tesco Mobile, do you mind checking to see if either, o2 or Tesco works on yours?
Also can you tell me which firmware version your Mate 7 came installed with? Mine is B125 as shown in screenshot above.
Thanks

Well if you bump into anyone with an o2/vodafone sim, try the sim out to see if you get 4g. I'm sure you'd also like to know if your phone supports all the bands it's suppose to...
I'm curious as to whether it is just my Mate 7 or like this with all european MT7-TL10 phones. Where did you buy your phone, if you don't mind me asking?

Guess i'm not the only one then, must be an issue they overlooked. Where did you return it to, a service centre?

even if you were ever able to fully unlock a Sprint version handset, it may not support the bands needed to fully run properly on T-Mo's GSM network.
but search to see what bands (frequencies) your handset needs to support, to run on T-Mo's network. then call Sprint's customer support to help you unlock your handset for international use - say you're going to Europe for about a week and that you want to be able to use their SIMs.

which US GSM network are you using it on? i've already had my S6e unlocked a while back. since I also have service on both ATT & T-Mo networks, i have tried using a bunch of known working APNs (from my factory unlocked N5), but I haven't had any luck.
I tried going through the first several pages to see what APNs were used. however, I've seen the user 'iBowToAndroid' mention several times it won't work in the US. did that change towards the end of the thread. still a lot of pages to read through...

thanks. i'll try that when I get a chance.
I was using these same APNs...
i'll probably have to try it where there's a stronger T-Mo signal. i'm usually on Edge at home with my other devices.

ok guys there will not be no lte but it can be unlocked but not through the thread my brother my friend @idone will quickly unlock it at a great price also but you will on have 3g but it is still fast if i was helpful click thanks http://idoneapps.com/
If you look in Settings>About Device>Status> it will show the actual data network type you are connected to.
HSPA and HSPA+ will be working, and for T-Mobile if the towers in your area have been upgraded for LTE on 1900mhz LTE will work also.
The phone will just always show a "3G" icon in the StatusBar when in GSM/UMTS mode, it can be changed with a build.prop edit, but then it will always show 4g instead.
But do check here Settings>About Device>Status>
You will get more than 3G

I also am having problems with getting 4G LTE to work on T-Mobile. My sprint S6 edge+ is domestically unlocked for GSM. I'm able to get 3G to work while in GSM/UMTS mode, but will not work in "Automatic". Please help ;(

LTE band 4 working on Verizon?

Anyone with issues getting band 4? At home I always have it but am stuck on band 13. Any suggestions?
The app LTE discovery will let you know what band your on.
It's good to see someone has it on Verizon. Mine won't connect to the network at all.

Did you take your sim from an active phone on your Verizon account? Have hd voice added on as extra service?
Problem for me is HTC's site says it has band 4 which is xlte for Verizon. It won't recognize band 4.

Ok. On Verizon's site the added service is HD voice. Maybe you know someone with a phone that will be compatible and pop your sim in to get HD voice added on your account.

The Verizon associate popped it into his own phone and tried it, but the phone probably has to be actually added to the account I'm thinking cuz it didn't work.

Well, once your sim goes into a phone that phone will show up on your account. Then you need to go to my devices and then apps and services and add HD voice. You might need to upgrade your sim too.
I don't mind helping out but I'm trying to find out if anyone has been able to get band 4 on their U11. Each thing I've said you negate it like you know the answer. This thread was specifically made for my question.

Sorry it got off topic. I'll let you know when I can actually use it. Apparently 6P had it so I swapped with my mom's phone and was able to add hd to my line. If it works I'll let you know what band I'm getting.

Well that sucks. That means lower speeds, another crippling of a great phone.
Curious as to where you got the answer and if there is any reasoning behind it.

I bet Verizon says it is because the phone was not certified by them and as such they don't guarantee any features to work and blah blah blah when in reality it is probably their computers automatically unchecking a box on your customer record to guarantee the system will never let your device utilize the features

Come on brother, don't leave us in suspense, where did you get the info.
I've downloaded the LTE Discovery app onto my HTC 10 and I'm trying to use it to see if there is Band 4 around my area, before I try out the U11.

Post #99 in the Verizon thread.. He posted a bunch of info on communications with HTC, Verizon, and AT&T.
Really slow lte on mine too..looks like only band 13
Band 13 only here in Virginia.
Band 13 in Syracuse. Went back to my 10 and getting 4 consistently.
Stuck on band 13 here in Columbia, SC too. Band 4 works fine on my old One M8. HTC support has been extremely unhelpful. They keep pushing me off on Verizon. If this isn't sorted out before my return window is up this thing is going back.
"Thanks for the account verification. The HTC u11 is not capable with LTE Advanced https://t.co/JueO1hTCbK. Since this is a non-Verizon device, we can not guarantee that all features will work when comparing to a Verizon device. ^ZY
In order to use LTE Advanced, the device will need a carrier update. The HTC u11 may not be able to get the update since it is a non-Verizon device. Verizon LTE Advanced-capable devices already have the necessary hardware and software. LTE Advanced uses software to combine two or three channels – a combination of 700 MHz, AWS, and PCS spectrum to provide peak speeds. ^ZY"
Guys this is what i got after talking to VZW CS
