I'm having serious issues with AT&T LTE in central Mississippi. The LTE network in my college down has been here for at least 8 months, but after ATT did some network upgrades last month, I can no longer access the HSPA network. If I make a call, it kicks me straight down to the EDGE network after a 30+ second delay. Same thing when I receive a call. As a result of the delay, I frequently miss calls and the phone never rings. The issue just started this month. Tried the new APN settings as suggested on other threads, and that just results in EDGE only access. I called AT&T and they forced me to do a full wipe and have them do a network reset. That didn't really fix the issue.
I am on ViperXL 2.0.0 with the latest radio (have tried the older radio too, no fix). Still on HBOOT 1.32 (I think, If not, it's 1.35) I've researched the issue to no avail as to another solution. If I could just use the HSPA network things would be fine, but when there is no LTE I drop to EDGE and the signal strength on the EDGE network here is 2 bars tops when there is 5 bars LTE, so I frequently have no signal when I used to have 5 bars. AT&T, as always in their valiant effort to cover their own butts, says there is no network issue.
Input and solutions welcomed! Thanks guys!
Just tried a sim swap with a friend. He has the s4 active and it makes the step from LTE to HSPA+ with no issues. However, his SIM in my phone still refuses to acknowledge the hspa network. Any suggestions guys? I'm running out of solutions. Problem exists on elegancia and viperxl ROMs.
This wouldn't be an issue except that I live in an area where there is literally at most one bar of edge once it drops the LTE.
UPDATE: After the new sim didn't work, I went ahead and relocked the bootloader and flashed the official RUU. No luck. It seems as though my HSPA radio has actually gone out and will not work.
Weird. I went back home and it works perfectly. But it didn't work where I currently live or anywhere along the 75 miles of travel. Regardless, the replacement HoX+ will be in next week.

Wondering if you can help me.
In my office my colleuge and I have an hd2 on UK o2 pay monthly. Untill about a month a go we were getting HSPDA internet access. Now we are only getting EDGE. I contacted o2 and they stated that the area is a very high coverage area and we should be getting HSPDA.
What makes matters more interesting is two other colleuges in my department in the same building, one has an iphone 3 and the other has an iphone 4, both guys are on uk 02 pay monthly and are getting full 3g access. I am getting 3g and hspda in other areas.
Does anybody know why we are getting edge instead of at least 3g?
thanks.
I had a very simillar issue, so perhaps the solution I found will work for you. A co-worker of mine bought an HD2 (immediately after seeing mine). In many areas at work the reception was terrible. I also noticed that at home, when I first had the phone I got 3G often, but after a few weeks I was suddenly stuck on the EDGE network (If I got any reception at all). Since messing around with the Android port I was forced to flash a new Radio ROM and it seems that was my problem all along. At home I now get constant full bars HSPDA. At work I get reception in places that I never did before. My coworker (still using stock radio) is having the same reception issues I used to have.
So my advice is try a few different radios and see if that helps.

Yea we did try that the other night thinking it might be a radio issue we went from 2.5 up to 2.12. What rom / radio did you use if you dont mind me asking?
Does anybody else have any ideas? This is happening with two ok uk hd2's in the office! My colleuge and I have tried multiple rom and radio upgrades but nothing is working but my other colleuge on iphone can get 3g sitting beside me
ive had this issue too, never knew how to fix it :/
AGHHHHHHHHHHHH Going to call o2 tomorrow and tell them I want to swap for a new phone, I am not getting the service I should be!!!
Ive tried just about everything I can think of. Ive tried updating the ROM, Radio, rilphone.dll - also tried going back to stock rom, yet my colleuge sits on his iphone right beside me on 3g its madness!
have you tryed puting your phone into flight mode then .ack on again let thephone pick the strongest hsdpa mast signal up. welcome to tbd way o2 works lol we get it all the time in york and leeds
That is a very interesting idea. I will try and report back thanks man!
I am really getting no ware with this. Phoned O2 and they tested phone in my network said that I should be ok I should have full hspda access, my colleuge is sitting on iphone with ull 3g and has a o2 dongle which has hspda access. I am getting fulll signal strength, changed the sim card and tried multiple radio and dll file combos and this is driving me nuts. Any help would be appreciated.
I have been doing some further testing and found something interesting. When I am at home and can connect to HSPDA. I went into the base band and changed it to WMCDA got full access. I then changed it to GSM band and got Edge. I then went into work to test it and tried to force it to WMDCDA but it wouldn't even connect at all no coverage.
I tried it back on GSM and full coverage but only edge support. Any ideas?
I warrantied out my first rezound due to the vibrating not working anymore, and my replacement arrived, and its updated to the latest OTA 3.14.605.12, and when i go into mobile network, I only get the choice of LTE/CDMA and CDMA. I remember on my last phone, when i went in there, I had the option of selecting GSM and other options...
I thought the .12 version enabled world options to allow using GSM bands? Maybe I'm confused... I'm trying to get it up and running on a straight talk sim (at&t)
This will give you gsm option: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/

Thanks!
Found that the other day and forgot to post back here. Got straight talk working on edge. Call quality was great, signal great. Wanted faster speeds so i tried the 3G thing and got HSPA working, but signal was absolutely horrible and cut in and out non-stop to where it was not usable 95% of the time. Straight talk is not worth it for me because the edge data speeds are almost unbearable for this phone (maxed at 0.12Mbps if i could get it to even register). HSPA i clocked it up at around 8-9Mbps, but that would work for 10-15 second bursts between switching to 3g and back to edge, and back to 3g, and back to hspa. It was very frustrating, so back on verizon I am. Trying to save money somehow but can't seem to shake verizon for the life of me. Nothing compares to the speeds and consistent signal strength.
I've had an odd issue which after many attempts, I have been unable to resolve. Constantly, since the day I bought my HOX+, it loses its HSPA connection, falls back onto 3G, then after a period of time, resumes HSPA. It happened on the stock rom, CM, AOKP, and my current Venom ROM.
It is not a signal strength issue, to my knowledge. I've had several other phones in this town, and I have never ever experienced this with any other phone, even remotely. While watching this issue happen, my signal strength remains constant -63 dBm 25 asu. TBH I don't honestly know what those numbers mean, but for anyone that can help, maybe you need them.
I have the international HOX+ with a Bell SIM card. I love this phone, but this issue is interminably annoying and is the one remaining thing that's keeping me from really enjoying the phone. Any assistance anyone can offer I'd be very glad. Thanks.
Change the sim card.. and try....not just the rom...

I have an international HTC One X on AT&T (Didn't want their version) and I see my phone go to 3G when it's idle but it goes to H right after I initiate something that requires data. Is that what you mean?
Oh, and does anyone know how to check if this phone is using HSPA or HSPA+. In the settings and by using the 4636 dialer code it doesn't say so. On my Galaxy Nexus it will say HSDPA:8.
Haven't tried switching SIMs. I don't have another one to try, but they're cheap, I'll see if that helps. Also, in the 4636 menu, it shows HSUPA 9, which I believe is HSPA+
I was out of town this past weekend. Wisconsin Dells if anyone is interested. While I was there I was experiencing some bad signal, so I read multiple times that you could force a PRL update for your phone to allow it to possibly roam on newer towers. I dialed the *228, then pressed 2. After the update my phone will now only connect to 3g. Even back home now, which I know for sure is a 4g area, I am still stuck on 3g. I spent quite a while messing with settings. The one that controls what network to use. I tried them all really. But its set to LTE/CDMA only right now.
I was running CM10.1 from 8/3. So I formatted system/data/cache/dalvik, everything basically, reflashed the latest build of CM 10.1, and it is still doing it.
Any other ideas before I reflash back to stock and call Verizon?
So I flashed back to stock. Still stuck in 3g. But in the touchwiz interface now it's a bit odd. In Mobile Networks, the list item says Preferred network mode: CDMA/LTE/EVDO. When I touch it, it presents 3 options, Global, LTE / CDMA, and GSM / UMTS. The LTE / CDMA item is selected. The odd part is that even though LTE is listed first on the option when it is selected from the pop up menu, it still says CDMA is first in the preferred network mode, the gray text. That is even more odd is that if I select the GSM one, it doesn't connect to anything, which is expected. But then if I go back into the option and select LTE / CDMA, the status bar icon will say 4g for a half second and then say 3g.
Any ideas?
I found this. Is my sim card really toasted?
https://community.verizonwireless.com/thread/786562
"I was recently browsing a different message board to see what was being said about the GS3's poor reception and data, and I came across a discussion on "updating towers" using *228. From what I read, it seems that dialing this number from a 4G phone not only does nothing to update your towers, but it also destroys your SIM card, and prevents you from accessing 4g. Consequently, you will need to get a replacement SIM card. I find it hard to believe that Verizon would allow something like this to happen. It seems that they would notify their customers when upgrading.
Has this happened to anyone???"
Update: I called Verizon. They confirmed the sim can get toasted if you dial *228 on a 4g phone. So I'll have to go into the store tomorrow morning to get a new sim. The support guy was cool about it. It said he did this exact same thing himself before he started working for Verizon.
Yeah I have heard that dialing *228 from a 4G phone is a big no-no but I didnt know that it actually fries your sim. At least you can get another one for free.

This could be a handy sticky. Just in case more people try/do this.

I wish I had seen this thread sooner and I have been spending days trying to figure out why my phone would no longer connect to the LTE network after traveling to a 3G only area. Whoops!
I definitely think this should be a sticky - or at least warning not to use *228.
Hi,
I have been experiencing a few issues with the 4G LTE on my LG V10 H901 (T-Mobile). What happens is this.
In Network mode I selected GSM / WCDMA / LTE Auto. This initially worked fine and could get a data connection. 2 days after, I noticed I couldn't get a data connection anymore, the 4G LTE icon at the top was displaying with a down arrow lit. So I went in the Network mode and checked my APN everything was ok. Decided to switch from GSM / WCDMA Auto where I got a 4G connection (icon 4G displayed at the top) and I finally got a data connection.. Changed it back to GSM / WCDMA / LTE Auto, and there I was back on LTE... I had to reboot my phone and that is when I noticed the same thing happened again!!! No LTE connection and had to first select GSM / WCDMA Auto to get 4G.. If I reboot with GSM / WCDMA Auto I get a data connection fine.. The problem only occurs when I have the Network mode on GSM / WCDMA / LTE Auto. Anyone else having this issue? Is there a fix?
Thanks
I would say it's a hardware problem with the phone I've had mine for a month i never touched network settings and the phone gets a better data connection then any phone I've ever had LTE pretty much all the time where other phones wouldn't maybe a factory reset would fix it worth a shot
The first V10 i got from T-Mobile had somewhat of a similar problem but with WiFi, it would connect but speed was horrible. And LTE isnt that great in my area either. I read around the forums and notice that many have done factory resets and that fixes everything. I did that and lowe and behold, it did. WiFi was fast again and LTE speed improved but still sucks....its my area, not the phones fault. For some reason, a reset helps.
However, I was still just 4 days in since I got my phone so I just went back and had them replace it. I just told them that the WiFi doesnt hold....they didnt really ask me tons of questions. I replaced it only because I am paying for the phone and me having to do a "fix" to make it work doesnt sound right...so I want a new good phone lol. The new phone worked fast from the get go...no reset needed.
Just got the V10 was having those wifi issues initially so brought phne back n exchanged for another 1 and this 1 workes fine but now Im having dropped call s inside my house ,verizon said no antenna issues i can bring phne back n replace for something else or another v10 but that is time consuming ,please anyone having drop d call s....I live Long Island NY so verizon overage is better then most carriers...INaNYmin...
I began having the exact same issue on Jan 16. Had the phone since Dec 25th, worked perfect. Then, all of a sudden, it began to lose LTE connectivity. At first I thought it was a down tower, but the problems persisted an eventually got much worse wherever I went. On a full charge the phone will behave normally for a while, but eventually it starts losing data connectivity altogether, cycling between 4G LTE, 4G, 3G, 2G, trying to connect. during this process the battery drains a lot, it never really connects, and sometimes calls and text messaging fail. Tried every network setting, soft reboot, hard reboot, safe mode, clear cache, factory reset....problem persists. T-mobile concludes it must be defective. We shall see. Awaiting a replacement.
Having the same issue. Looks like it's a common problem. Any fix for this yet?
I have a similar issue.
it always seems to find the LTE signal, however I have no data and the battery drains very quickly.
If I have it on GSM/WCDMA/LTE, it seems to have connection issues. However, the data will connect on GSM/WCDMA. Once I have data, then if I select GSM/WCDMA/LTE, and it will connect to LTE
It is a Tmobile version. I am using it on Bell (Canada)... however it works fine with Wind & Tmobile, with no issues.
I am hoping that this will be fixed with the Marshmallow upgrade.

Wind works on hspa not LTE. That's why it works. I've noticed that it works fine on hspa(4g) but when I put it on LTE(4gLTE) it works for a while then stops.

For me, Wind works fine on GSM/WCDMA or GSM/WCDMA/LTE
With Bell, it will not connect on GSM/WCDMA/LTE.
However, with Bell, if I put it on GSM/WCDMA, it will connect. Then if I change it to GSM/WCDMA/LTE, it will connect to Bell's LTE.
Occasionally, it will lose its data connection... and then if I toggle between GSM/WCDMA & back to GSM/WCDMA/LTE, it reconnects. This seems to happen once every 2-3 days
I don't know why it does this. It was actually very frustrating until I figured that out. I almost dropped Bell because I was not able to connect on LTE for the longest time!!
I just keep my Wind plan for the US roaming (on Tmobile LTE down there)

Yup exact same issue with me and that's how I resolve it as well I'm with koodo and I lose LTE. I was going to warranty this phone but I think it's a common issue.
I just want to quickly point out that I am seeing the exact same issue on Virgin Mobile (Bell). I also noticed that the performance of the phone decreases drastically when it is connected through mobile data instead of WiFi. Anyone else sees this and knows how to fix it?
Lg v10 t mobile no connection
I'm having a similar issue I get a 4G LTE signal but if I make a call once I end it I loose all signal including the bars it wont let me text or call it says network not available and it will do that till I travel a few miles. I'm not in a dead zone because it does it in the heart of the city and on the buisest streets in Tampa Florida then it will come back and sometimes I won't get a signal for a entire day out shoe have any solutions?

Hey,
I'm using this phone in Canada too, on Telus. Ever since the OTA update 2 days ago I've been having data connection errors over the network. Did you find a fix?

I'm seeing this too, but it just started after my OTA update. So frustrating bc I love the phone.
I had a similar problem. With The latest software (,,v20c,,) With the LGUP Software I software put it back (,,v20a,,) . And it seems the problem disappeared. Last part of the modem software is not good. Even test elements. Sorry for my bad english for knowledge. LGUP software very simply . ( i have V10 960A Unlocked (Eu version) android 6.0 and T-mobile LTE )
