Hi,
Not sure why, I'm facing random signal loss. Particularly when the phone sleeps.
I'm using Sentinel ROM and Air Kernel.
This has been happening in the past week and my other dumb phone on the same network with another sim card always has signal.
Neither the ROM or Kernel was updated recently.
What could be the problem?

Any chance your Nexus is looking for 3g signal where as your dumb phone is on 2g?

Are you on WiFi? If you are, there's a wifi delay bug.

Ya I know about that. That isn't the issue. Also, when I am on WiFi and leave home my cellular network doesn't connect sometimes once I disconnect form wifi

Im using T-Mobile and yesterday I got that empty service bars on the notification and it could only make emergency calls. Happens from time to time didn't think anything of it but I left the house and I'm still not getting any service. I was running paranoid android June 6 build so I tried switching ROMs and kernels but still no signal . of course I took out sim and rebooted the phone. I even put my sim on another phone and it work got signal and put there sim in my phone and wouldn't get any signal either. I ran out of options any help is greatly appreciated

This happened on my first nexus 4. Nothing fixed it. Nothing. Hopefully your situation is different. If nothing works, flash back to stock and start the RMA process. Google said it was a hardware failure with mine by the way.

Did your happen when you first got it or after you had it for awhile? And what's the RMA process

The periodic loss of signal was there since day. I still have it on my new one. Others do as well, but one day it went out and never came back on. I believe it was a different issue than just random signal loss. Google said hardware failed in it. You have to contact Google to start an RMA. I'm also not implying that your signal won't come back on at some time either. Personally I would flash everything back to stock. Go to a t mobile store and get a new Sim card and if no signal still then contact Google

Under settings, then data, then mobile networks, then to network operators.
let it search, even if it doesn't find anything or errors.
Then click choose automatically.
If you frequently travel out of 3g/H areas, you need that checked or the phone won't roam from tower to tower. you will get no signal.
Also, if that don't work, you can try clicking on a network it finds, and let it register, your signal may come back.
This is a common problem with those that don't live in big cities or near full strength 3g/h areas.
The phone doesn't handle tower handoffs well. Crappy LG modems.

Most likely wouldn't but it would be one more "possible" problem eliminated.

I'm currently going through the RMA process over virtually the exact same issue. However, I've been running franco's nightlies lately and up until he restored the HSIC/wifi stuff to stock in r154 I was actually experiencing less data drops and rapid tower swapping (constantly going from 3g to H and back rendering consistent data inoperable). *shrug* I feel as if it's something in the hardware on the cusp of failing because sometimes it does it more and sometimes it does it less. It's rather weird. I'm also on T-mobile towers through an MVNO (Straight Talk).
I just cancelled and switched to ATT go phone.
I have RMA'd 2 devices, tried multpie new simcards, relflashed, tried new radios, and nothing worked.
It no longer switches from 3g to H on ATT network.
It stays in H constantly.
Also, no more signal drops or loss of signal.
I have 100% signal all the time now.
The data is a little more expensive, but worth it for the coverage so far.
It's not your phone, it's the tmobile network.
I have had the LTE fix on my phone for about two weeks now and today it is not showing up. Is 4G down in the LA area? Is anyone else having this problem?

I'm over in the IE, and LTE is going strong.
This is really weird. All the APN settings and the radio is still there. Nothing has changed except I'm just not getting 4G anymore
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Have you rebooted lately? I know if I reboot, then the setting in 4636 changes to WCDMA Preferred. I have to go back and change it to LTE/GSM, then turn the radio off and back on before it will connect to LTE.
Not sure if that is normal, but that's what happens to me.
I just did a factory wipe and I rebooted everything works now. Really weird though. It happened right after I put LTE on my girls Nexus 4 and it's not working on hers right now either. I'll wipe hers when I get home I guess.

was working in the Bay Area when I tried it just now....
Was working in San Diego earlier... Pulled 30 down 15 up
Working in Denver, 33Mbps down 13 up
What program are you using to test your speeds?

I get those speeds on occassion in chicago but that doesn't really even matter. the LTE signal seems to penetrate building better.

I noticed that, it still isn't where I need it to be but it's definitely gotten better.
These are my speeds, not the highest but I'm happy with them! I'm in NYC, btw

It it normal for my mobile internet to disable when I'm talking on the phone? And when I cut off it comes back

It's always done it for me so I'm assuming it's normal
Are other phones like this?

I'll also say my old Galaxy Nexus and HTC One X did the same - I'm almost 100% sure it's normal behavior in Android
If I'm not mistaken it's because your using 3g to call someone. Now if you were on 4G and try to call somebody most likely it would still say 4G on the top notification bar because it's using your non LTE band to call somebody and allows you to use LTE for data purposes so you would be able to hop on the internet and browse at the same time on a call. Now I know with AT&T you can call somebody and browse the internet while on 3G.

My Nexus 4 running CM11 (doesnt seem to matter what rom I run, same problem when I was running slim rom) will intermittently lose data, most noticeable when streaming Pandora. Music will play just fine for about 30 minutes straight or more then it just stops playing and i am not able to get any data into the phone for at least 3 minutes unless I reboot. The thing is that i never show signal loss, it's always 4 plus bars of LTE (have not tried to duplicate on hspa).. It's not the app because google search stops working as well... I am using a hybrid radio..
Am I the only one experiencing this issue? Btw I'm in the US and using tmobile..

Nexus 4 does not support LTE !! I GUESS because mine doesn't ☺ so try Using it on 3g or wifi!!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk
Officially Yes that's correct.. However it does have the radio for it and it does work.. I will try hspa and see if it happens... But I'm not convinced its an LTE issue just yet.
