Hey guys could u please help me out as my nexus 5 is not working on Airtel, but is working on tata docomo ( I stay in Hyderabad)
I'm not able to understand as both are GSM and if the phone is working on one sim , it should accept the other too
By the way the phone is imported.
Pls help.
After inserting airtel sim, the phone connects to the signal and then loses it every second

I am in Bangalore. For me Tata Docomo is not working. But Airtel is working. But in Airtel i am able to get only 2G not 3G/4G.
Airtel sim connectivity issue
I have got my nexus 5 last novemeber and got it for service at an authorised service centre because of a blur screen issue. Now that issue is cleared, but i find it difficult to get a good coverage for airtel network even at places where airtel has good coverage. i have tried other sim (vodafone) as well and it works perfectly. This is not an APN issue; i have used the same airtel sim for almost one year in the same device
I took this to service centre and demanded an explanation, but they are saying other sims are working fine, and hence it is an error caused by airtel network.
I took a duplicate sim and also tried my sister's airtel sim. Both instances gave the same results of poor network connectivity.
Can anyone help??
i have tried factory reset as well... so i am almost out of options...

Probably bevause when it was released, 4G was prevalent in India.
I know, it has 3 bands of 4G, none currently used in India, so no way to use 4G in India.
should we not sue HTC India for selling a device with false pretense? When I called HTC, they said their devices are country specific. If so, why is HTC advertising it as a 4G device if it cannot be used even in India?

Thought so too, but their website clearly says 4G only available while roaming. So we'll have no ground. And the clearly mention which bands too. I don't remember where they advertised it as a 4G device too.

I have a 4g enabled Airtel sim (ported recently from vodafone) and it shows me only H or 3G.... I have switched the bands to GSM/WCDMA/.....LTEAUTO and restarted the phone also.... but speedtest.net shows 1.5mbps speed only...
Edit : I changed the band using *#*#4636#*#* and upon reboot the band returns to GSM/WCDMA/CDMA and EVDO (PRL)
Anyone know how to make it stick ??
Also, i am on locked bootloader, non rooted and 5.0.2

As far as I know, none of this will work until htc sends an update to enable 4G, like it did with the M8. It initially didn't support 4G, but an update was sent to enable it. That brought LTE under the options in network, whereas we have only 2G, 3G and CDMA. LTE should be there for LTE to work.
Also, from what I've heard via someone close, htc isn't considering the update, for them, E8 in India doesn't support 4G.

I am using moto g3 dual sim in india. Earlier, i was using 4g but 2 3 months back my phome stoppped recieving 4g network on this number.
I changed my sim twice and factory resetted my phone twice. I even tried contacting airtel customer care bit they were unable to rectify this issue.
Finally i ported out of airtel and got idea but still when i select 4g network of idea is unavailable.
I am in delhi where 4g network is available.
I have used my friends sim card of airtel and idea in the same slot, then 4g works. The issue seems to be with my number only.
Please help.
Go to the dialer
Dial *#*#4636#*#* a window will open
Go to phone information and set preferred network
type as LTE Only
Go to setting - more - mobile network - and set preffered network type as LTE Only

No 4G connectivity for so many months
I'm using VALIDUS -OSPREY-7.1.1

I'm unable to connect to 4G network for almost 3 months. Previously was using Postpaid Airtel Sim which worked fine. But after switching to prepaid new number which is also Airtel 4G i couldnt able to access to 4G connection.
Got help from the provider even after resetting the network settings and eve
Tried with other sim card on my device which is also not working with 4G while my sim card is working with other devices and no sim card is getting connected to 4G in my device as of now.
Is this the fault of network? Or is this Bug from the OS?
try flashing modem again from stock firmware. hope that helps
I have honor 6X indian variant.My 4g connection works fine when I am using Reliance Jio carrier sim card.But when i switch to my vodafone simcard i am unable get 4g data speeds.I am able to view vodafone 4g network and connect to it.But when i turn on my mobile data i am only getting 2g or 3g speed.I have talked with customer care , rechecked my vodafone internet settings they all are fine.Vodafone is set as primary sim and 4g is enabled.Even my subscription plan is 4G plan i have checked.Can anyone help me to resolve this.
Update : 11/09/17
Yesterday i got update BLN-L22C675B340 , after installing there was no immediate change. but today since morning i am able to connect to 4g network all right. Don't know if it was due to carrier issue or phone software issue but its has gone away now for good.
Maybe you live in an area where Vodafone have no band of LTE that's compatible with your device
im using idea 4g. i do get 3g speed sometime when there is no 4g signal but at my home i alway have 4g i got good signal at home.

So this makes my conclusion a logical one, Vodafone doesn't provide a 4G band that's supported by your device in the area where you live!

I use Vodafone 4g in my Honor 6x 3gb variant and its working fine...
From the screenshot you provided, we're you used to set your network manually to Vodafone 3g rather than 4g network?
