Dear XDA members,
While I'm not sure whether I have had this issue since the 4.3 OTA update, my phone doesn't seem to be able to connect to the internet when I am connected via UMTS and not via HSPA(+).
This is certainly a big issue for me, since no messages come in when I don't have HSPA(+) connection. And it appears that the phone is not able to connect to HSPA(+) anymore until connecting to WiFi/toggling airplane mode or possibly changing the phone's physical location.
Hoping you can clear this up.
The Nexus 4 ONLY supports HSPA+.

Where did you get that?, it does make sense that it does support GSM but Google never said that.
EDIT: Wait, just looked at the site again and it looks like they do have it.

No worries now, I just looked again and it actually says that unlike the last time I checked.
You may have to reflash your whole device clean to fix this issue.

usually, when connecting to data(when data starts flowing), itll go from umts(H) to h+. and when data stops flowing, itll go back to umts(H).

Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4
Not sure if this is similar but on 4.1 I had issues where 3G (whatever) would drop out signal wise but if I switched to 2G (GPRS) then it would be full strength.
Upgrading to 4.2 sorted it out and 3G/UMTS worked fine again for data/voice.
Now I have upgraded to 4.3 voice will only work via 2G and data just drops all the time. Again 2G is solid but if I switch to all bands then voice and data just don't work.
Yes the APN data is correct.
Might be going back to 4.2.2.
Maybe changing the baseband radio back to default 4.2.2 might work?
How would I enable HSDPA/UMTS 3g only instead of hspa+?

Thank you guys !!!!!
This has made a HUGE difference for me, on LF2 radio I was getting 2-3mbps down and 1.5-2.5mbps up.
3 speed tests on this radio and I got 4.5- 6mbps down and 3-3.5mbps up.

This is not really slow. Just poor compared to the 20 mbps some people are getting. And it is still faster than Sprint 3G
Also, problem with MMS probably resides in your APN

It pales in COMPARISON but by all means is not slow. The Sprint users are suffering!

I take the bus everyday for 45min going and coming from work.
I have 4g most of the time and about 7-10min I'm locked onto 2g/edge
Now question is how much would my battery drain from the ups and downs of signal?
And BTW I use Google music sometimes. And ALL the time I'm either here looking thru XDA or using the browser.
GPS And locations are off as well.
Thanks!

That question can't be answered, it all depends on too much.
45 minutes with screen on in a bad signal area and on 4g? 15% or so? Impossible to guess.
Yea it was to hard for me to figure out. Thought I might ask here. Well I just got off the bus and my phones at 65% after 1hr screen on.

You're in a bad signal area, 4g, music. That could be right actually..
Stock kernel? If so try something else. Trinity, Franco.
Try gsm auto prl instead of wcdma preferred.

Not sure why it defaulted to Yellowknife, CAN. as the closest server, but the numbers are pretty similar to speed tests using the AT&T server that's 5 miles from my house. Latency is a bit more though. 120ms for Yellowknife and 99ms for Anchorage, AK AT&T server.

It's consistent because your using Wi-Fi. Turn off Wi-Fi and redo the test.

Are you not getting constant 4G? Typically manufacturers like to display an optimistic view of signal where AOSP doesn't. Else try a new sim.
