nexus 5 cellular data problem

Dear XDA community
I have a D821 device and since I started using mobile data I noticed that I was having a very unusual issue. I was getting only 2G and 4G signals with greek carrier COSMOTE GR & VODAFONE GR. Max signal on cosmote was Edge and when on 4G coverage 4G. On Vodafone I'm getting GPRS only. Any member had any similar issue and any solution to Fix it? Can it be a software issue or hardware?

I think that this is just about coverage and signal strenght of your providers.

Hello, and welcome to XDA!
Sometimes it's a situation of the network frequencies of the phone not meeting the requirements of the provider (in this case, Vodafone). But everything seems to match in my research. I did also find out that SIM2 is 2G only (generally - I say that because there is a YouTube video that claims to have found a way around that) . But if your problem is with SIM1, that's another story.
Please create an account, so you can post in other forums, From there, can post your problem in the [HELP THREAD][NOOB FRIENDLY] Ask Any Questions thread (or at least) in the > Xiaomi Redmi 1S > Redmi 1S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum. Your device experts can be found there.
Hope this helps, and good luck!

[Completed] Ulefone Be Pro2 Need 4G LTE Setting

I'm on Metro PCS. I setup APN and have been receiving MMS but only getting 3G speed. I haven't been able to get 4G or LTE. The Preferred Netork are does not show any 4G or GSM or anything like that. Would I need to create one custom.

[Completed] Htc m8 sprint 4g not working in India on airtel network.

Hi Team, I bought HTC one m8 sprint model and using in India on Airtel network.
2g and 3g is working great on this however 4g is not working at all. I Googled it and came to know that sprint uses 1900 MHz antenna for LTE networks but airtel uses 2300 MHz spectrum so 4g is not working. I wanted to know if it is possible to change the lte frequency for phone through any settings or by any application. Please help if it is possible.
Thank you so much in advance.......

[Completed] Problem with lte on my xperia x

Hello,
I'm actually from Germany, but i find this forum very useful..thats why i hope, you can help me with my problem.
I purchased a Sony xperia x online. Everything works fine except the LTE. It's very bad and unstable. I used an iPhone 6 plus before and there was no problem with lte.
I checked every setting, but everything seems fine.
I checked with the app Lte Discovery which lte band the device uses for lte connection and it said band 20. So i can be sure it has the Lte band 20, can't I?
I also found out on xpericheck that the installed firmware is for devices from switzerland.
So I want to ask you, if it's possible that the device doesn't really support band 20 because it's from another country? I haven't found any model of the xperia x online, which doesn't support lte band 20.
I would give you some screenshot but the forum doesn't allow me to do this.
Thank you in advance
