It has been two months since I've flashed the GPE Lollipop on my Moto G (XT1034 which was from Canada and I'm now in the Philippines) . At first I thought getting no signal in some areas was normal, but then I realized I was the only one having that problem.
I've flashed the XT1032 modem but it didn't detect my sim so I decided to flash the XT1034 modem which I thought would work and it did detect my sim. Problem is, I'm getting really late text messages and in some areas, even in malls, I don't have signals and I can't even make calls. It would randomly jump from having a good connection to having none at all and that is strange because I've never had that problem when I was stil back at Kitkat. I live in the Philippines by the way and I've been using my phone only here the entire time. I don't know how to get my phone have an unlocked modem too. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: I'm thinking of downgrading to 4.4.4 and wait for the update, not the soak test.

Hi all,
I am having a problem with my data connection, quite often when I am using my phone the internet connection icon next to the signal bars keeps disappearing and I loose connection, it's normally only a minute or so but it is quite annoying as it is quite regular and causes some downloads to fail.
I have tried different ROMs but I have the issue remains.
I am running a UK xt1032 device and couldn't wait for the official 4.4 ROM so I flashed the us global gsm rom, ( downgraded my bootloader to the 4.3 version so I could flash CWM ) but have since reflashed the 4.4 boot loader, but I was wondering if flashing the us ROM could could be affecting my connection as I believe the primary difference between UK and us ROMs is the radio frequency ( I might be wrong ).
So... Is anyone else having this issue, or is this a CM based ROM bug ( as all the roms I have used have been CM based ) or could my phone be faulty, or could it just be down to my network ( giffgaff UK ) as I do make the most of there unlimited data and I'm not sure if they giving me low priority.
Sorry for the long winded post, and thanks for any advice/feedback.

Well not sure this will help you but lots of people in the uk have been having data cut out after upgrading to kitkat but that is accompanied by other issues.lots of info on the motorola forum.

Im with giffgaff and after i upgraded it was a nightmare,data cut out,random airplane mode with no symbol showing etc. i have now downgraded too jellybean and the phone is flying and has no issues at all.probably a different issue with you but thought i would mention it.
You flashed the US Radio firmware. Changing ROMs won't affect that. You have to flash the UK Stock firmware image which includes the UK Radio firmware.

Hi all just thought I would post an update, I seem to have found a solution for my problem,
I had to go to network operators and select another network ( my network is giffgaff ) so I selected Vodafone, waited for the no service to kick in, then instead of selecting giffgaff I selected O2 and since then I have had NO drop outs, and its been almost 24 hours
Hope this helps.

Good thinking,keep us informed if it continues to work as i will update mine then .
Still going strong although I have a G at the moment rather than a H , but most importantly there is always an icon there
Nobody is perfect, I am nobody, therefore I am perfect.
STILL no visible problems with my signal
Nobody is perfect, I am nobody, therefore I am perfect.
Id recommend to downgrade back to 4.3 mate,my girlfriends moto g (Vodafone) (fully stock not rooted or unlocked)ota to kitkat4.4 had signal issues 24/7 mine was unlocked and rooted and had intermittent signal issues, reflashed 4.3 on both and no signal loss at all,in fact data speeds improved, on giffgaff on kitkat I couldn't get over 1 Mbps at home now on jb its pulling between 2 and 5 Mbps

I did reflash 4.3 but got board not being able to flash any roms, as this was one of the main reasons for me buying this phone. But since connecting to O2 signal seems fine
Nobody is perfect, I am nobody, therefore I am perfect.
Anyone else experiencing network loss sometimes? Only a reboot seems to help. I'm on 4.4.4 stock on a XT1032 model. A fix would be nice.
Motorola forum also has lots of users having this issue.
i have also noticed this happening on my 4.4.4 moto g from time to time
No more issues since last days. Mostly due to bad SIM connection. If persistent, its best to ask your provider for a new one.
Hello all,
Sparse poster, long time lurker. I just upgraded my Nexus 5 (purchased from Google, on T-mobile) from 5.0.1 to 5.1 using the OTA link available from AndroidCentral and though no other problems have been found, I am having some trouble with the radio now. When I'm on a call now, the data connection drops from LTE to GPRS, showing the 'G' next to the signal strength icon. Before upgrading from 5.0.1, this would drop to HSPA ('H') at worst. I came to expect that the 5.1 update would enable VoLTE since I thought the N5 was capable of this and the upgrade enabled VoLTE on the N6 for a buddy of mine. Either way, I think GPRS is a pretty bad when I need a data connection while on a call.
I tried to reflash the bootloader, radio, boot and system img's manually and nothing changed. Any ideas? Anyone else having this issue?
Thanks!
hi, I encountered same issues with tmobile LTE after I sideload to android 5.1.

My stock 5.1 radio was very broken. Phone process froze, no deepsleep, losing connection and sim, people could not call me. Very bad.
Using 5.01 radio now, its much better.
My provider is Vodafone NL.
Hello! Apologies if I do some dumb mistakes forum-wise and pass as a total noon at this, cause I actually am! Anyway, here's my problem:
So a couple of weeks ago I tried CM12, an unnoficial CM12 by Beeto and CM11 by him too, I noticed a big major flaw with all of them, which made me go back to stock firmware... The cell signal sometimes is just very weak, and I'm experiencing this on the stock firmware too! I go look at battery>cell standby at the end of the day and I notice that it spends about 15% of time without signal, should this worry me? Its just that my friend's phones normally show "0%" or very very close in the same conditions! I'd like to know if there's a way to fix this in any way, either on the Roms I tried or the stock firmware (since I prefer custom Roms anyway)... I'll be waiting for a response! Thank you!
EDIT: My friends are reporting that my messages duplicate sometimes! Really need a fix for this, it's dumb :/
Also with an XT1039 here (rooted stock 4.4.4 w/ bb). Used a Samsung Galaxy Ace II before (CM11) and the signal has similar dropouts with both phones. Wondered if it was the firmware (on my old phone) but as far as I can tell (also tried my sim card with an old SonyEricsson V630) it is my service provider (E-Plus Germany). Moreover we have a pretty white (poor) provider coverage in Krautland (3G and LTE on E-Plus are basically only with full signal strength outdoors in major cities). So I guess nothing to worry about.
Hey everyone,
I've never really been into the whole flashing deal and I'm also pretty new to the xda-forums so pls don't hurt! :angel:
Anyway, so live in Germany and imported myself an S6 Dual Sim Version via Amazon, so that I could have Internet both there and at home in Ausria at all times. It had a Russian Baseband and CSC but it worked and filthy casual that I am I really didn't mind until now. It's a really weird issue, so sorry that the post turned out pretty long. I haven't found any similar common 6.0.1 Bugs, however I'm not even completely sure if it really is a problem of the updated OS anymore...
So here's the deal.
In Germany I got the prompt to update to Marshmellow 6.0.1 via OTA. Having heard mostly good things about it I downloaded it without really bothering too much about informing myself about any known issues with 6.0.x . After downloading it in Germany my Signal and Mobile Internet worked fine, however I did experience some battery drain in the following days and decided to initialise my phone via Samsung Smart Switch, as I had done with 5.1.1 when I first got the phone because it's cpu never went into sleep mode. Worked out fine then.
Well ever since I did the same thing with my S6 with 6.0.1 the whole dilemma started. Regularly, my phone will show 4G Signal Reception and even full bars, but I am not able to load a webpage or even be called by phone. Wifi works fine, when I have these outages. When I activate flymode and deactivate it again, my reception works again for a couple of minutes, however, the issue will return after 5-10 minutes. Usually even faster when I'm in a moving car or train.
When I switch SIM Cards I can be called on both, but I can't seem to connect to my mobile internet on the Austrian card (can't check on the mobile connection from the german card as roaming is locked by the provider). I went to my austrian network provider and had my sim card replaced, no change. I flashed DBT G920FXXU3DPCA Android 6.0.1 via Samsung Updates hoping that the right baseband would fix it - Nope.
Any of you guys have any other ideas? My last resort is flashing back to 5.1.1 stock. Trying to replace it through Amazon will probably be hard, because the KNOX Counter is tripped. It already was before I flashed 6.0.1, but that doesn't really matter to Amazon I guess. Also the bug is way to specific to replicate anyway, so I'd probably receive the same device back and I don't really know how I could prove via screenshot, etc...
If there's anything I can upload that would help, pls tell. Hoping somebody here might have an idea!
Having similar problems but also with wifi. Any advise appreciated

I have the same problem with cellular reception with my S6 duos G920F. My problem is only with sim slot 2 though. It seems to show full bars but when people call me they are getting me as unreachable.
