Hello all,
Ive noticed recently that I lose my data connection on my Sensation 4G (4g, 3g, or edge) whenever I am on a phone call. It comes back immediately after I hang up, but I can't use any data while on the call. Its really strange as Ive never had this issue on any of my previous TMobile phones (G2x, Vibrant, G1). Anyone else have the same issue and has anyone found a fix\workaround? Its quite annoying when ur trying to look up something in Google Maps while on a call and theres no data
Ive double-checked WCDMA\GSM Auto is enabled in wireless settings btw., and it switched between Edge, 3g adn 4g without issue. Seems limited to being on a phone call.
want to know this answer as well

It's based on the Carrier that u r using..This is not an issue of the Phone.
I'm on Vodafone India with same issue..I can't get data connection while Call, But when I switched the Carrier it works again...
So in short this is depended on the Carrier that u r using..Some carriers support this dual task(call+data) and some dont...

Hi guys, i am using internet via wifi for quite some time
But i have tried with mobie data connection and i am facing some problems...
When i switch on mobile data connection 'E' connection(edge) symbol appears for like 5 mins ..
After 5 mins E symbol is gone and i am unable to connect to internet.. my signal strength is full
After 2-3 hours again i can see that E symbol for 5 mins and boom its gone again..
Can somebody solve my problem please..
Which rom are you running? For some T-Mobile users like myself the Cm roms have data issues. When I try to run Cm, I get blinking data that NEVER connects. If your not running Cm rom have you tried the application get RIL? It checks to make sure ril is matching radio and if not matching recommends a ril to download.it's really helped my signal. I found I had a weak signal because my radio and ril we're not matching. Once I downloaded the proper ril my signal jumped back up from one bar to five bars! I am assuming you are rooted. If your not you can't use get ril because it's for device with root. If you're not rooted, your options are pretty limited. If not rooted you can call carrier and see if they can help. But if you are rooted, do try "get ril" it can really help. Best wishes to you. Hope this is helpful.

The E symbol stands for EDGE which is 2G.
Have you asked your service provider to enable mobile data connectivity for you?

Yup .. know that its edge... And i have asked my operator to enable ..
Its working but only for like 5 mins....and i even dont know when it works .. it just comes suddenly and goes off boooom
Try this I think it will work for non rooted phones also. Press *#*#4636#*#* then when the menu comes up press phone information. Then scroll down and press on your current signal, another menu will pop up, then press wdcma only, this is 4G. Then scroll down and press refresh. If you have a available 4G signal in your area this will lock on the signal. It will not switch to edge. I often use this method because my device prefers edge and I want 4G. It works wonderfully for me because I have a strong 4G signal in my area. If you don't lock on or have no signal available after this then 4G is not available in your area. But do give this a try, it will lock you on the 4G network and no more switching to Edge. Let me know please how it goes. I think this will solve your problem. Do write down the code because after reboots you will have to do it again. Hope this is helpful! Best wishes!

Some of the Sensation Models do not support 4G.
It is unlikely that 4G is available in OP's region since it is not showing H

Yup you are right... First thing my device supports only 3g and even if it does support 4g it is not avilable in my region
Thanks for the replies..please post if there is any alternative..
Note - my device connects to edge connection but only 5- 10 mins even though full signal of 5 bars is avilable

You can try putting in Data Enabled card of a friend of yours and see if this is a phone issue or a provider issue.
Also check if your provider provides 3G in the area.
I often have issues with my signal being at 1 or 2 bars where friends of mine (Galaxy S3 and iPhone 4, but same operator) have like 4 or 5 bars. Sometimes people cant even call me even though my phone shows 1 bar of signal.
Buts thats not the worst thing. My mobile internet connection seems to not work EVERYTIME I'm in some kind of tunnel, sometimes even in normal houses. It shows that it tries to get information (arrow up and down) but it doesn't (it even switches from H to 3G, which doesnt even make sense). In the end it tells me the networks not working.
Does anybody have similar issues?
Some boost mobile user reported similar behaviour.
I've flashed the ICS radio and signal is much stronger. While running the jb update I would have full bars and still get 'bad connection please turn on WiFi to connect to the internet' 4g full signal would do the same thing. Until I flashed ICS radio of course.

Edit. Probably the network, looks like jb radio is the same one, weird though my signal is much stronger now. Must have been a placebo, + the network being 'optimized'
Edit. Can any one verify the boost mobile jb radio? 'its the number under settings next to baseband'
Mine is 1.12.50.0516

I just got my replacement phone. Let's see if this One SV has the same problems. If so, I'll tell them to give me a different phone, I can't use it like that. I'll tell you guys.
I got a new one. It's a non LTE though. But it works way better now. Driving through tunnels makes my mobile Internet disconnect for a second now, but I guess that's pretty normal. Before it didn't work at all in tunnels. Maybe it had to do something with the LTE variant.
Gotta check if the phone signal got stronger too.
By the way I'm writing this while being in the subway station.

My LTE SV has roughly the same reception as my old phone, the Desire, which has always had great reception for me. So in your case it must have been either a defective terminal or maybe some weird software issue.
It's a shame, though, that they've replaced your SV with a non-LTE one. You did pay for the LTE version, that's what they should've replaced it with.
Well, something is still not right with this phone. Even though my mobile internet is working as intended now, I still have big connection issues. Sometimes (at least 5-10 per week) I lose my signal completely, which shouldn't be too much of a problem if it lasted for like 10 seconds or so, but it doesn't reconnect on its own. I have to restart my phone every time. People often can't call me for hours because I don't notice that it lost its signal once again.
I will call them and tell them I want a different phone as I'm still paying for it. I can't use this one anymore or at least not for my job.

Well, now that's weird. I mean OK, you might get one bad terminal, but to have it replaced and still have the same issues...?
It might be that your radio/ROM isn't compatible with the network, or maybe you have a bad SIM card. Try and replace the SIM, see what happens.
I live in a bad signal area. I usually get 1-2/5 bars on WCDMA and 3-4/5 GSM bars. Sometimes when the phone switches connections it'll take 2-5 seconds to do so, but i've never had it remain offline etc.
Could you please tell us where you're from/what operator you're subscribed to?

I'm from germany and my operator is o2. I contacted them again. They told me they can only send me another replacement phone, which wont change anything for sure.
My problem really isnt that it doesnt have signal for a short time period. My problem is that it stays like that for hours!
Please stop quoting the post you're answering to if said post is right above yours. It clutters up the forum.
Right then. So ask for a LTE replacement - that's what you've paid for, that's what they should give you, and see if the problem persists. If it does, use the phone without an SD card for a few days, try not to install any „toggle” software (like 2g/3g toggle widgets etc.) and replace your SIM card (it should either be free or cost you some 2 EUR - that's what Vodafone charges here in RO). If the problem still persists, it must be a network issue.
If you have a few minutes, try this: Settings -> Mobile Data -> Network Operators -> Search Networks, give the phone a few minutes to look for networks, then when it displays the network list, tap on yours and allow it to register. See if this changes anything.
Sorry sir. I'm just pressing that reply button. Didn't know about the one under it.
I just found out something pretty retarded. I went for the network settings and chose the network mode "GSM/WCDMA" instead of "GSM/WCDMA/LTE" and it instantly jumped to 5 bars from 1. It's the fricking LTE network.
By the way i made a mistake. it was a LTE version replacement from the beginning.
Yupp, thats what i always do: let the phone always work in the best available network (set by me to GSM Only).
This Network is pretty stable at my place and its also battery saving because it don't search/switch for another net.
Well that's quite crappy though. I didn't buy a LTE phone and a contract that allows me to use it, just to find out that it doesnt work as intended.
God I hate it.
I told them that this is the problem and they're just sending me a new sim card. Don't really expect this to help, but let' try out and afterwards I'll just contact them again.
At least the phones stable now...
Well, it's not the phone's fault. It's the operator's fault. Their LTE network is not developed enough. You should be happy, though. Vodafone Romania does advertise LTE, but the coverage is somewhere near 0.01% of the country (mostly near Vodafone shops or by the seaside). So where i live i don't even get LTE. And i live in the capitol. :laugh:
Thats what i think. LTE is far away from stable and everywhere available.
Near to me is a village, where you can't use a mobile phone, because there is NO network at all, lol.
What?! In DE? I thought that only happened in the East!
Yupp, in the middle of "DE"...
Lol, don't wanna live in this village. Many jokes and so, you can imagine

russellvone, you're lucky.
In the area I'm in a bunch of Boost customers had serious signal strength issues starting last week, and data feels like it's been throttled to 2g/EDGE while we all get "4G" on our status bars.
Service feels like it's been declining, and I've only been with them since June of this year.
PRL updates did nothing.
I used Tmobile prepaid for my personal phone since the Nexus S launched, then a Galaxy Nexus.
The only reason why I didn't get a Nexus 4 was that I thought I was missing out on something without LTE.
I got the SV for free, so I didn't exactly choose Boost.
I just needed something to hold me over a few months.
Now, I won't care if the Nexus 5 has LTE or not, I'm buying one and going back to Tmo.
The SV is fine, the service.....that makes it or breaks it for me.
Anyone using a nexus 5 on T-Mobile in the NY city area getting very bad reception I'm not sure if there's an issue with the device or tmobiles service coming from an HTC one that had excellent reception I think there might be something wrong with my device

Are you getting excellent HSPA+ reception, but the phone isn't switching to LTE or connects to LTE, but jumps back to HSPA+?
Go to a T-Mobile store and tell them about your situation (don't chat with them online because that did not fix my situation). The rep that I spoke with called tech support and they did some sort of reset on my account. I also asked for a new SIM and was given that new ISIS SIM. As soon as my phone booted, it was on LTE and stayed on LTE. I was like you, thinking that my device was messed up, but T-Mobile fixed it.
No if you check the discharge chart I posted the phone is just completely loosing service but I haven't tried getting a new Sim yet I'll try that and see if it helps

The problems you describe were while using T-Mobile on a Nexus 5? I've only had T-Mobile service about a week now, before that I always used AT&T on samsung android phones (S4, Note II, etc). And service was always very strong on AT&T.

Anecdotally, I'm having terrible reception in NYC as well. At home and in the office, barely one bar, frequently none.
Over the past 2 years on an HTC Sensation 4G, have typically had no reception problems in these same areas - 2-3 bars at all times.

sounds like the same issue im having ill update when ever i get my replacement to see if anythings changed
We have the same issue with Nexus 5 with Tmobile in greater NYC metro area. When i tried with my old Samsung mobile there is no issue and it works fine. The problem, I can't make and receive any calls. Most of the callers told me, it goes to voice message after couple of rings. I didn't get even single ring and voice mail message. Frustrating Nexus 5.
My friend and I have the same problem too.
Both 16gb White
What colour of nexus 5 you guys have?
I see some have white, maybe white causes this issue??
Having the same issue as well. I have a 32gb white model and I randomly lose all bars when my friend calls me. It is very random and only happens a few times. Going to go and switch out the SIM from T-Mobile and have them reset my line and see if that fixes the problem.

32GB black with miserable cell reception here, so not a color issue.
Maybe an LTE issue? Might explain why our old devices got better reception, if they were using older gen signals/antennas? Not that we'd want to in the long term, can we disable the LTE services and live off the previous gen, at least to test?

I get lots of complete dead drop outs too, even on Wifi. One moment cruising along, the next I'm disconnected, the next I'm back on. Something is not right with this device.
Hmm I need to also find some time to visit a t-mobile store and check out why my reception just drops and gets spotty all of the sudden sometimes.
I have the 32gb white model. I never get LTE while two of my friends with Nexus 5 that were next to me both got LTE.
I also had my signal drop to 0 in a starbucks before, and I never had that happen with my previous Nexus 4, was frustrating since I couldn't get the promo code for my starbucks reward drink x.x
Ok guys Google is definitely on its game with replacing your your nexus 5 placed my RMA Sunday night got it today and I can report my new phone is working as it should I wouldn't say it gets as good a signal as my one did but a minimal difference that you would expect between two different devices so if your having an issue call up Google tell them you already spoke to T-Mobile about your service issues and they couldn't help you and that your certain its a device issue as a side note their RMA process has you basically buy a new device and send them the old one
Also I had a black 32gb so I don't think the color matters

After my research, When we switch back to 2G (GSM Only) option there is no issue with voice calls but the data speed is very slow as expected. It seems that there is an issue with T-mobile towers LTE/3G/4G for voice calls. Below is the problem with Sprint network, looks like same thing happening for Tmobile.
s4grudotcom - sprint lte connectivity issues due to circuit switched fallback technology.
If you need voice calls high priority like me, give a try to switch GSM only.it shows E network on signal bar.
So I got my nexus 5 on Friday and its perfect none of the mentioned defects was having some small issues with the notification light but that's all. However I noticed once a day since getting it I go to use my phone and it says emergency only / Rogers and I won't be able to make calls or receive calls. Anyone else experiencing this problem ?

I'm on Rogers and I get this too. I usually fix it by going into network mode and change it to 3G and back to LTE immediately.
I still get incoming calls even though I can't dial out until I do the above change.
Its network problem not the nexus 5

I have the similar problem i'm on rogers and if the signal gets weak it will show signal strength in the home screen, i can surf the internet(data), but will not send text messages or make calls, if I try to make a call it say "cellular network not available", if i turn air plane mode on then off it reconnects right away. this has never happened with my GE Galaxy S4

I have the exact same issue guys, I hope that it has nothing to do with our nexus 5's.
im getting this error too. darn! its not normal for a phone to be like that. never happened to my previous one.
there must be something wrong with the phone.
im on Fido.
but its only happening to canadian network? weird.
maybe they're torturing people who didnt buy from them? lol
It looks like I have a similar issue.
My connection sometimes gets lost. Some sort of hiccup when connected to mobile network.
No issues found on WIFI
I'm on a hspa network in Canada and wanted to report that I get worse reception with the N5 than I did with my Galaxy S2. I hope it is easy fixable with a new modem flash or other update.
Just wanted to contribute in case there is anyone working on this and wanted some more info.
I had to change my data plan because, according to T-Mobile (US) it was not compatible with the phone. I could get emails and SMS text messages but could not get Internet data services (kept being prompted to log onto the network and presented with the T-Mobile logon screen). Lost my unlimited data, which I was grandfathered into (but found out that they were throttling me at 5 GB which I don't usually hit). I knew they would eventually make me change my plan anyway and was able to get a new 4.5 GB plan at the same price. Since T-Mobile will be offering this phone very soon (tomorrow? they're taking pre-orders now), I guess a lot of long-time customers will be pushed off their unlimited data plan.
I have the same problem!! It's really annoying - mine gets dropped every 2-5 mins! Is there a way to fix it? Is it the N5 or Rogers network?
I have the same problem in Belgium:

If you are constantly getting poor signal it might be the handset. If you have good signal, and can use data, but have "Emergency calls only" instead of a carrier name, it's probably a carrier issue.
I am on Fido and have randomly had the same problem. There's another thread somewhere, and most if not all people reporting the problem are Rogers/Fido customers.

I also have this problem. I am on Fido in BC. Sometimes it will completely cut off the network signal from full bars to no service, similar to no sim card installed. It goes back to normal in about 5-6 seconds by itself but its definitely annoying.

It is a software issue. I switched to a different ROM and kernel.
Cataclysm ROM and bricked Kernel.
