I have an AT&T m8 and after doing the Google play edition conversion my signal seems to drop out some more, and WiFi connection will occasionally drop. Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks, I'll give it a try!

I finally managed to upgrade my RAZR to ICS manually yesterday; however, now it seems that my 4G connection is poorer than before. For example, at work I used to have full/ almost full bars for 4G and now I only pick up 3G.
Has anyone else experienced this issue or know how to correct it?
Thank you,

Apparently some people are having signal issues (i.e., dropping between HSPA and LTE where other AT&T phones are rock solid LTE) with the Developer Edition. HTC has said the Developer Edition may have signal issues since it is not "optimized" for AT&T. A few people have commented that ROMs based on the international HTC One may also have signal issues while running on the AT&T HTC One.
So for those of you running international roms such as Android Revolution or TrickDroid -- are you having any signal issues? Is signal strength as good as it was on stock AT&T ROM? Any trouble holding on to an LTE signal?
Thanks.

I wouldn't say that it's much an issue, but that the international roms show Att true signal strength. For example I have one bar of LTE in my house and my wife's iPhone 5 range from 2 or 3. My LTE speeds are almost double hers. The bars being shown whether on stock Att or international doesn't mean much. A good way to check signal strength would be to compare your db's.

No issues here. DBM signal, speeds all awesome on the International Roms. AT&T likes to make you believe that your signal is better than it really is.
Signal bars are a lie.
I have -95db signal and decent LTE speed

Thanks to all for the feedback.
Just a note though, that some aren't complaining about the bars, but about actually dropping LTE connections where other AT&T phones do not.

Yeah, that happens with me in my house sometime (if in my pocket etc) . Somewhere in one of these threads someone mentions how the international will drop connection at about -115db or something and Att drops around -125db. So that could be the reason.

I flashed my One to the Maximus 7 Rom and have noticed lower bars than usual. I live near a cell phone tower and all phones that I have had as well as others on ATT always have full bars while I can't seem to get more than 2-3. Today my phone started switching between H and LTE and acting weird while driving and it has never done that before. I'm on the latest 1.29 radio firmware and it hasn't helped...not sure how to fix it and for those saying this is just the true reading of signal, I doubt I would be getting such low signals when Im literally about 3 blocks away from a cell tower.

I did notice this too. I definitely have lower bars and lower speed as well....I have trickdroid 5.1 installed. I tried the ATT version before getting the dev version and I did not have this issue.
TrickDroid and ARHD both show true signal bars, but they will also switch to 3g from LTE sooner than the stock ATT load. they seem to switch at aound -120db where ATT will hold out until -130db. if you select att from the ARHD load, it hold on till about -125, still not the same but it works.
Like another person said, the stock ATT ROMs show a non real signal strength, where the Int'l ROMs do. It's all about your actual data speeds and the dB signal. I'm running ARHD 7.0 and have zero reception trouble. LTE speeds are fine.
Just replace /system/framework/ext.jar from an AT&T ROM and you'll get the "fake" AT&T signal icons...
Yup

My Co-worker cant keep the LTE signal for longer than 10 minutes.... and the phone gets hot as heck...is yours hot?
HTC One AT&T Variant TrickDroid 5.2.1 ROM with AT&T tweaks.
RSRP(dBm): -105 to -110 avg. RSRQ(dB): -10 to -12 avg.
No LTE troubles but I did notice during the ROM install before I picked AT&T as carrier it flaked out a few times saying something else besides LTE and H and kept going back and forth.
TrickDroid rom with AOSP icons are showing 1 to 2 bars. - At the bottom!! Whereas my stock rom was showing like 3-4 bars all of the time at the house.
SpeedTest with both roms at my house (not on wifi) = 15M down. 10-20 AVG. regardless of ROM.
Hey guys,
This is one of my first threads so please bear with me.
If I did anything wrong feel free to let me know.
Issue 1: LTE Connectivity
So far I've been loving my one max so far, however there are a few troubling issues.
The first biggest issue for me is that I cannot seem to get 4g/LTE anywhere.
I had a note 3 before and I could get LTE coverage in the same area that I operate the one max in.
Is there anyway to enable LTE?
I'm currently on Telus network, and I've updated my APN's accordingly.
I was wondering if I had to flash a telus modem? If so, where would I go abouts downloading it?
Alternatively I vaguely recall a method of downloading the CSC by typing in a code in your dialer keypad.
Issue 2: Frequent Wifi connectivity problems
I've noticed that I've been dropping wifi connectivity quite often. Even when my phone is right next to the router, the connection will be lost
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I promise to donate to the person (people) who helps me fix this issue!

Don't know international but on sprint because of the new spark network and the different bands I can't get standard LTE till they roll out an update.

Try typing #*#*4636#*#* on the dialer.
Then Phone Information.
Choose LTE Only. If it does not get LTE, either you are not in an LTE area or the phone does not support your network's LTE band.

I have the same issue. My phone turned up to be from the US and it is not getting LTE on any of the networks here although there is LTE in the US. I called HTC support and gave them my IMEI, they confirmed phone has LTE. Dunno what to do.
Sent from my HTC One max using xda app-developers app
just found out that EMEA LTE frequency is 800 / 900 / 1800 / 2600 while USA LTE frequency is 700 / 1700 / 2100
so the only solution is to return the phone back to the reseller

Trying to isolate the problem to see if its my phone, the ROM, or router. I had no problems before I flashed. It seems like I randomly drop my network and it doesn't want to reconnect without a reboot. LTE also is very intermittent, sometimes going from 4 bars to none or dropping to 3G without even moving. Its been getting very annoying and has been dropping calls lately. Has anyone else noticed this. Is it a carbon issue, a CyanogenMod one? If so does. Anyone know any good gpe based ROMs as an alternative?

Typically Wifi issues phone wise are kernel related if the kernel for example uses different drivers. Cellular issues are typically related to the Radio. ROM itself should not greatly affect radio signal nor Wifi.
Ever since the 12B update I consistently drop off 4g , when I do have 4g I only get two to three bars, and wifi connection also is weak when connected. Speed tests on both 4g and wifi are significantly slower than Before 12b update. Anyone else having similar issues?
I called vzw, rep stated it sounded like a hardware issue, which I am not saying isnt a possibility but the odds of both wifi and 4g antenna failing simultaneously after the update seems far fetched.
Any idea on a fix? Is it possible to flash JUST a previous baseband/modem/radio (call it what you want) without touching the software version of the os?

I flashed 12B, 11C modem and then 12B again. Still good. Didn't see any significant differences.

Yes, but you have to be rooted and twrp installed.
See the Reference thread in the general forum for the modem file and install instructions.

Thanks for the help. I flashed 11c modem and ran speed test . As you can see ,the tests on 29th were on 12b. The test on 30th is with 11c modem.img. All test ran in the same location. Hope this helps someone else. Thanks again
Lots of variables

I like Speedtest, but on the same device at the same location with no changes, I often get large variations in speeds only a few minutes apart. I'm not saying there isn't a problem (I haven't had a problem with mine on 12B), but results are hugely affected by the selected server and time of day. Try several servers to find the most consistent one in your area.
