[Q] Help with connectivity please - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Since two weeks I am a proud owner of my new Nexus 5. However I have some trouble with it. The connection of my mobile network can suddenly disappear. I also have a very slow data connection, most of the time nothing, sometimes only GPRS. I can barely send a Whatsapp message with this connection. I have tried other simcards in my phone, but they work neither. As far as i know, all my settings are correct. The only thing that concerns me, is that at the radioband selection, the only option is "USA Band" while I'm in Europe. And yes, I have the D821 version. Also the "preferred network" option switches automatically back to GSM. Unfortunately I can't post screenshots, due to I'm a new user. I hope someone can still help me . Thanks in advance!

[Q] Sim card does not allow connection to this network

I am posting this as a new thread as my reply on a similar thread got lost or ignored and I would really appreciate inputs :
Randomly at times when I try to register on network manually (MTNL Dolphin 3G - Mumbai). Unrooted MB865 ver 2.3.6 & updated on 18th May 2012 to System Ver 55.28.37.MB865.AsiaRetail.en03. If I keep the setting as Automatic in Type of Network & Operator it functions fine fluctuating between Dolphin for local access & CellOne on roaming access in the same area based on cell tower connection the phone registers on alternating between "E" & "H" automatically based on cell mast direction proximity, however if I select 3G only and uncheck automatic for operator then the phone searches for signal for a very long time and fails to show any operator saying "no connection available" & sometimes when "Dolphin" network does appear and try to select manually get the error as "this sim card does not allow connection to this network". I did complain with the service provider and they were supposed to get back to me after checking in their switchboard exchange where I also provided them my SIM number in addition to my cellphone number(no response). Also as is case with poor service of all Indian cell network providers even in urban cities, also face random peculiar issue of call not being received inspite of signal available on the phone & network asking me to recheck the number I have dialled while placing outgoing calls though it is ok and signal is sufficient. Also "Network Speed Booster" app looks like a lot of bull (any other good apps??)
I needed to know using the secret Menu *#*#4636#*#* for 3G GSM service which kind of network I should ideally select for best results & does this setting override the regular menu network settings??
I get "G", "E", "H" randomly based on my locations but no "3G" or "H+" and further at times these icons are grey and sometimes blue and in either cases randomly
at different locations sometimes data throughput is not there as only one of the arrow shows active blinking. Any advise on the status based on colors and the blinking of the arrows?? Thanks!
PS _ This is what another user had posted (do you guys feel this is a phone defect?)
I wasn't able to solve this problem about an year. But did. And totally sure that it is Device's defect (in some cases it is a ROM deffect as in my case, in other - hardware. Smth like stack overflow issues at GSM controller or so). A year ago when I had face this "sim card does not allow connection... " problem, there are no google serch results on this keywords request. Any. To remove this message I was ought to reboot my device every time it appears. And I was thinking that it is normal behaviour for my device. But now there are lot of complainings at the web ( minimum 5 of Galaxy Tabs P1000, thousands of HTC Disire, few motorolla Deffy, 10 Galaxy Ace, few of Nexus S and so on), so I understand that I'm not alone, and problem is known. So I went to Samsungs Service and they confirmed that it is famous problem, have flashed my phone with some magic ROM (magic because it is official but does not available anywhere in the web, XDA or samsung sites! ) and now my phone works fine. Any other solutions like battery removing, *#*#4636#*#* sirvice menu, new sim-card, flashing variety of modems and roms, didn't helps me. This is not faulty sim. This is serious device's defect. Bring your phone to manufacturer and let them repair it or give your money back. This is their problem not your.

[Q] LG Nexus 5 fails to recognize celullar network

Hello,
I have a Nexus 5 phone that came with Kitkat a few months back. The phone worked without issues until I decided to update to Lollipop 5.0 (OTA update) at the end of November. Initially the phone started to have troubles to detect the network at certain times - typically "playing" with the settings "Preferred network type" by changing from 4G to 2G, restarting, letting the phone detect the network on 2G mode and change back to 3G or 4G would fix the problem. The issue became more and more frequent until a point where i can not change the "Preferred network type" from 4G to any other type (as if it is "glued" on that setting). At this point my phone does not recognize at all the cellular network but It does seem to recognize the SIM card since i need to enter the 4 digit code to unlock SIM and it displays the network name, just no service.
I've researched the internet and I've tried several things but nothing seems to fix it such as restart mobile, change to airplane mode and back, take out and re-insert SIM card, request new SIM card from operator. The APN settings seem to be OK.
I've noticed that a new 5.1 version just came out and although I was not fully familiar with the process i decided to give it a try (after reading several instructions) and update manually (using factory images posted) and see if that would fix it. The phone is now with version 5.1 and still can't recognize the cellular network - no service. Everything else works fine, including Wi-Fi.
Has anyone experienced such issue after OTA update? The only odd thing I can think of is that I did the initial OTA update to 5.0 in US while i was on travel from Europe, but I can't say if this would in some way contribute to the issue. The mobile is D821 model.
Since I was stuck and mobile is within warranty period, I have sent it to service repair. I would be interested to know ideas of what could be the issue cause.
Sorry for long message, any help would be very much appreciated.

Question Frequently lost mobile internet connection

Bought in Belarus country (the timezone is UTC+3) - for a few months everything was OK.
Moved to Georgia county (the timezone is UTC+4), bought a local sim and started to have problem with mobile internet. I live in a city with good connection, at the top right I see 4G, but I often need to disable data traffic and enable again - to continue to use internet.
I was in the office of the operator, they tried to create an APN, and gave me another sim.
Also tried network preferences reset, multiple times.
Also disabled "Check time automatically" and "Set time zone automatically".
All updates, stock ROM, Android 12.
Official LineageOS rom will fix this problem?
Please help.

The service will do nothing to you. Changing the software won't help either. I tried, there was a problem with this on the site twice and they did nothing but update the software. But I found a "way" to select a mobile operator, I bought a second sim card, but it is important that it was from a different provider. I put it in and it's on my phone, I don't call from it, I don't use data from it. It's just plugged in and turned on in the settings. Previously, the problem was so strong that I had to turn on the airplane mode for about a minute, or turn off data transmission, as you write, or have forced 3G not LTE (4G) all the time. And now, literally for a moment, the Internet will disappear and reappear after a while, and it is no longer bothersome. It's such a partial solution to the problem. After the holidays, he will send it to be repaired again. They will probably send back that everything is OK. And if that does not help, he will write to the representative office in Poland, Xiaomi, maybe they will help. You can always make black piar on the web.
