Mobile Data not possible after OTA Update - Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
since an update to 5.1.1 my Z3 i'm not able to use mobile Internet anymore. Sometimes after restart it works for a while sometimes using WCDMA instead of LTE works. But these workarounds allways work for a small periode.
It seems to be that other in Germany have the same problem, Sonysupport tells me to do a Faktoryreset.
Has anybody noticed the same bug is there a solution?

I woul recomend to reflash the same version using Androxyde Flashtool without wiping data and system. Seems like modem/baseband upgrade problem.

I am not sure if T-Mobile in USA is customer reflashable... Otherwise I would use flashtool/xperifirm to download latest 5.1.1 and flash it clean.

So I'm not the only one. What a strange bug. I'm on ATT in the US using the D6603 on straight talk. Just like you guys, HSPA works fine but LTE does not work aside from certain apps... very strange

It is known that US providers do a nasty things to firmware in order to "protect" subsidized phones, however don`t know if it is also case of ATT and T-Mobile. However, I would highly recommend you make a clean install of 5.1.1 (you can download latest .570 / .580 firmware with XperiFirm) if you can.

The problem has fixed itself. I'm not sure what happened, but my LTE signal is now working fine.

Nexus 5 CANT connect to 3G Network

A month or so ago I started to get only EDGE signal from my carrier wherever I went , every time, I've been over a month trying every solution and nothing has worked, here's details of my findings and what I've done.
1) I tried to go back to stock firmware, didn't work.
2)I tried flashing different radios from the XDA thread, nothing.
3) I called my carrier and did some tests, checked the APNs and the phone network config, everything was ok and still not working.
4) I tried my girlfriends SIM(from the same carrier) and same result, no H signal anywhere.
5) I opneded the freaking phones back to check the MIMO antenna and it seems alright.
6) I went to another carriers shop and tried their SIM, and boom it worked with H just fine.
I'm very curious on what the probke. May be, I should point out that my carrier uses the 1900mhz band for HSPA, while the other carrier uses the 900mhz band for HSPA, so, somehow the phone isn't able to connect to the 1900 band, but it does connect to the 900 band with no issues, how in hell is this possible? It worked just fine for 3 months until now...
I am overseas so I cannot ask for a replacement from Google, also I don't wanna sell the phone to get another one, and I don't wanna have to switch carriers , I've been with this one for years and I have a great plan and I have tons of services tied to this number, I do t wanna go thru the hassle of changing everything.
So, any recommendations, any technical help? Ideas? Please let me know I really think this is a software issue and I wanna get it fixed!

Clearly two things are possible,
1- You messed up by flashing different radio bands, lesslikely.
2- The 1900 band in your phone antenna is damaged, you better do a replacement, i am sure in this one.

1) I didn't flash any radios until the problem was already there.
2) where am I supposed to find a replacement?
3) tried all solutions in that post, no luck.

But u didn't test ur SIM-card on another Nexus5
If ur sim on another n5 works fine so ur sim-card is ok
but ur phone with another sim-card also works fine
so this is between ur sim-card and ur phone
a compatibility or any damage on sim-card and ... caused these issues
This is not because of ur phone
ur phone hardware and software are fine ur must check operator & etc.
maybe ur operator is not compatible 100% for n5 or KK 4.4.2 !

I forgot to say that I did test my SIM card on a Galaxy S4 and it worked just fine, also the Nexus 5 d820 supports the bands of my carrier, and I used it for 3 months no issues so, when the problem started I already had been with 4.4.2 for some time so it is not thay , this is a mistery man I don't know what to do :s

downgrade to 4.4 !!!
best way;
unlock > root > custom recovery > multiRom > then install any ROM u like, for example stock 4.4
or 4.4 based release of CM

As I said, my connection was working fine for weeks with 4.4.2 , hence it is not the cause of the problem, switching it to 4.4 won't make any difference

This might sound silly, but you made sure you're not forcing 2G/edge mode, right? Have you tried forcing 3g (WCDMA only) mode from this menu?

Switched from Nexus 4 to Nexus 5 have the same problem.
I found myself having a very similar problem after flashing CM12 on my nexus 5 (D821). I flashed the 20 jan Nightly and everything was working fine untill i update to the 22nd jan nightly when my 3g simply stopped connecting or had very spotty signal, i didn't give it much thought at first thinking it was a nightly problem but after one week i reflashed stock ics, locked the bootloader, event tried kit-kat and the problem is still there. Before flashing cm 12 2g/3g/lte switching was working perfectly for about one year.
So utill now: i flashed different stock rom's, different kernels, radios, custom roms and nothing worked. When i tried switching the sim with another one from the same network, 3g worked on the other phone so i doubt that the sim is defective, but on my nexus i had the same connectivity issues. I also played with the *#*#4636#*#* menu and managed to get 4G working again but only in CDMA mode and I cannot receive any calls or texts, but the internet connection is working, 3G also connected at some point but the signal was very poor.
I am lost now, and also desperate because edge is too slow for anything, what confuses me though is that this seems to be a software issue since the cause was me flashing a different ROM but all the signs point to a hardware issue.
Can anyone plese give me a second opinion? Is there any fix for this? (Also i recently went to my network's service to replace my screen assembly, could also this be an issue? the issue appeared about 2 days after getting it back from them, also about the same time i flashed cm12)
Thank you for your time.

[Q] My D820 won't even detect my network

Hi people,
So here is the thing. I brother gave me a D820 purchased in the USA and I was using it just fine until one fine day, it stopped seeing my network. It supports the GSM frequencies at 2G and 3G but it isn't even discovering the network.
On Vodafone India - Now, even when I do a manual search, my network isn't visible. It was working fine earlier but it just isn't now. I have tried everything from reflashing the whole thing, to trying out a custom ROM like CyanogenMod, including the CAF builds.
I have also tried flashing the old radio and that didn't help either.
On Airtel - What is funnier is that I used another network's SIM card and it seemed to be working perfectly for a few days and then the same problem appeared there too. Only this time, it was seeing the network, only wasn't registering on to it. It couldn't be a network issue because the same SIM card worked perfectly on another device.
Request any help to resurrect my paperweight Nexus 5 into being useful again.
Thanks in advance!

So you need to give more infomation. A lot of the stuff you're saying is pointless for example (I also tried flashing the ld radio???) there are a lot of radios for the nexus 5. (reflashing the whole thing???) what ROM were you on? what kernel? when and how did it stop working? what were you doing?
Be happy I replied lol it seems like you wrote the post in one big panic of a mess. so go ahead now.

You're right. I was in a state of panic.
The problem just happened. There was no reason for it, nothing. It just stopped detecting my network.
I have tried the following builds. And radios from these build separately, because as I understand, there were some WIFI issues with Lollipop to begin with:
1. KTU84P
2. LRX21O
3. LMY47I
More pointless info: Apart from these I have also tried the latest CyanogenMod 12.1 NIGHTLY (cm-12.1-20150419-NIGHTLY) with the CAF kernel and the standard CyanogenMod 12.1 AOSP NIGHTLY build.
what ROM were you on? - I was on stock KTU84P when the network stopped getting any sort of detection from the device.
what kernel? - Stock kernel that accompanied the above ROM. The phone was not even BL-Unlocked or rooted.
when and how did it stop working? - The when is a week ago. The how is a mystery.
what were you doing? - Nothing. I just woke up in the morning and found that my device has no service. Then I tried a manual network search and my network wouldn't show up. It works perfectly on other devices, the SIM card that is.
So, now I have a phone that doesn't work on my network.

My wife's Nexus 5 D820 has the same issue. Network worked fine on 4/13/2015, but zero network service the next day, 4/14/2015.
Did your problem happen on the same day? Are you on StaighTalk also?
Her phone was on stock software and still locked. Tried everything and figured it's a problem with the phone since putting my sim card in her phone didn't fix the problem. The phone detects sim cards and their registered phone #s, but zero network service. My guess is the cell antenna hardware broke.
We bought a different phone. Wish we could fix it! It would be nice to fix this Nexus 5 that functions fine except no cell service.

My problems started in April, yes. But I am not on StraightTalk. The problem first happened when I was on Vodafone India. Now, even in manual network search, the phone doesn't discover Vodafone at all.

Hey, I have the EXACT same problem. My Nexus 5 wont detect the Vodafone network in India! I tried all kinds of stuff - flashing the original stock rom, factory reset - nothing worked. All other networks are working fine. The same vodafone sim that wont work in the nexus is working absolutely fine in other phones. I am at my wits end - did you find any solution to this yet? Please let me know.
I have also been facing the same problem on vodafone.50% of the time i am unable to make or receive calls even when signal is present and if the call connects the call receiver cant hear me.The problem is also present in al the other ROMs and rradios i have tried.

Is it possible that i may have messed up the phone?

I have had an OPO since 2014 november, and since then, i have had install many various roms. But since august and i installed official cm12.1, my phone stopped working properly. While the phone is just idle on lte, when i get a call, i see the antenna change back to 3g but i dont get the call, and couple seconds later for the caller, call goes to voicemail. Or when i try to make a call on lte, most times, it doesnt connect like it cant properly work on 3g networks. When im on 2g everything works fine. But obviously i dont wanna get stuck on 2g. Also, i have tried probably every possible related thread and method, including going stock, going cm11s ( first official stock rom), installing different recoveries (twrp 2.8.6.0, 2.8.7.0.5 materialized, philz) and the modems and basebands even with fastboot. And nothing seemed to worked for me. So i was just wondering if i did mess up my phone or my phones modem or/and antenna. And how would i know for sure? Btw i also tried different sims. No luck.

I tried this one. I also tried to go back to 11s as well. Same thing every time. I can only have phoning experience on 2g. On lte works great for the data but 3g is hit or miss. I wonder if there is a way the set up the phone to go between lte and 2g for incoming/outgoing calls bypassing 3g option. I would be contempt with that.

Try another sim card
If your network requires to change your APN, this fix resolved my radio connectivity issue. I would check with provider if you are on correct APN setting. Your phones default may not be same as your provider APN.

Galaxy S7 LTE problem's

Hello from Bulgaria.Some one have had a problem with 4g network.Samsung S7 when he was lte \ 3g \ 2g after 30-40 minutes , scope disappears and receives a missed call notification.The problem gone after restart the device and after 30-40 minutes is same situation.If a phone is an 3g\2g no problems.
Sorry for my bad english.
Same here
My cousin bought an S7 Edge, but it had the same problems as listed. She then proceeded to change the phone, yet the other S7 Edge had the same problem. What could be the solution to this problem, and what caused it?
I change 3 phone 2 black and now give to me gold,for now i don't have a problem with the gold piece. Everything work fine.

We changed two gold ones, awaiting for the third. Problem seems to be persistent.
Hi!
Go to settings and find your APN-settings. Remove IPv6 and save it. Then everything should work fine.
I'm having the same problem. I'm sitting beside my friend with his ip6s+ and he's not having trouble connecting with the lte. just saying that this might not be just a network problem.
I've read about multiple people, including me having this issue, for some the APN IPv4 switch seems to work, but not for everyone. So what is this? Is it related to the phone hardware or software? Or is it a network problem? And will it be fixed? As this is starting to irritate me a bit..
Many People in my country (indonesia) is having similar problem. The signal somehow stuck in 3g. Forcing it to use LTE only using the app "4G LTE Switch) makes the signal gone, emergency only mode. Only a reboot would bring 4g back.
However it only acts up when using one specific mobile provider (telkomsel). Switching to my second sim, also by the same provider, didnt help. But if I switched to another provider, the problem doesnt happen.
Widespread issue in Germany as well. It's carrier independent. Had to exchange one unit. The new S7 Edge I got works fine so far, but has a pink hue on the display. Samsung QA! -.-
Any solutions or updates?
Solved?!
Hi,
I had the same problem in bulgaria with telenor.
Yesterday i got an update on my s7 edge to XXU1APCH and it seems to solve it.
This night it stayed connected. Normally i had the no service available in the morning.
Anybody else see the same?

Downloaded bulgarian firmware,, XXU1APC8 is the only one available. Tried to check for update, nothing yet to xxu1apch...
Update:
Emailed Indonesian Samsung Support, they came up with a temporary solution:
go to phone, dial *#9900#
select debug level disable/low
change to mid
wait for phone to reboot.
2 hours past no signal lost yet
update: 3rd hour signal gone again
hi,
has anyone found a solution for the problem above?
in my case I have really slow internet (mobile data) on 2,3 or 4G, it's like it freezes when I try to open a page
when I connect to 4G it maybe works for a second and then nothing else, it's like 2G, very slow (wifi works normal)
can it be hardware problem? I already cleared cache and reset the phone, but it's still the same..
At me the phone can not change back to 2G from LTE, if 3G network is unavailable.
If I use LTE/3G/2G option and somewhere is not 3G network I can't receive or make voice calls.
Phone only works with 3G/2G option in network mode.
But in this case I only can use edge if somewhere only 2G and 4G networks are available.
If I use LTE network, the phone doesn't receive incoming calls.
I bought my samsung s7 gold one month ago in Lebanon (Middle East). I faced exactly the same problem, I couldn't receive any phone calls. Went to the store and they told me to switch from LTE/4G to 3G. Now my phone is always on 3G and working ok so far. But I can't put it on 4G !!!
get new simcard will fixed problem
Hi, is there a solution to this?
got info that there is a patching from samsung for this issue but since i am using custom rom, i cannot confirm this.
anyone has any update?
Same problem! I'm from Mexico and i just bought my pink s7 Edge on sunday, i've been going everyday to the carrier store and yesterday they finally gave me another one but im having the same issue! I can't take it anymore i don't know what should I do Maybe all the pink ones have the same problem? They have already changed my SIM Card, i have tried with another one and it still happens
This sounds very similar to the LTE problem on the Nexus 6P I wonder if it is actually the same problem.

Can't make or receive calls from a few select areas.

Strange problem. I tried researching this problem and found nothing.
My OPO works just fine at everywhere except home and another location a few miles away from my home. At these places I can't make or receive phone calls. Data works fine. I flashed the newest resurrection remix, with full wipe. I also tried flashing 3 different modems.
I called T-Mobile and presented them with the problem and they said my phone many be too old and possibly not support T-Mobiles' new LTE bands. So, I asked what band am I receiving at home and they Dont know... I dropped down to prefer 3g and still no luck.
Anyone with a similar experience or may know what I'm dealing with please help. I still love my OPO and would prefer to not buy a new phone.

You might not be able to use Lte perfectly on T-mobile(as they already said) since it uses LTE band 12 mostly which OPO doesn't supports..though I guess 3G should work fine.
Also,I guess T-Mobile uses VoLTE to place calls,which again,OPO doesn't support.
Can you list out the modems/firmwares which you've tried so far?
4.0.1.c7-0013.zip
4.0.1.c7-0011.zip
DI.3.0.c6-00241.zip
Thanks for the info. I guess its time to buy another phone.

Can't you just change your Carrier instead?
LTE discovery app shows i am connected to LTE Band 4. 3 of 4 signal bars. Is it possible that t-mobile uses band 4 for data and band 12 for voice?

I am in USA. The next biggest carrier is Verizon which dont work on OPO. Metro PCS is the same as tmobile. I am not going ATT. OPO dont work on Sprint either.
