So I have been able to use VZW LTE on my Nexus 7 (2013) LTE without issue while using 4.3.1 but when I flashed a factory image directly downloaded from the factory images page, I can no longer access VZW LTE.
I'm just leaving this here in case anybody else had encountered this issue.
Also, as a side note, I bought the N7 LTE from the play store directly, then popped in my SIM card and it works without issue on VZW and I didn't need to contact VZW or anything.

I'm using it on VZW LTE with no problem. I think you have something else going on.

I have an AT&T SGS4 and their bloatware makes me sick but their feature that automatically logs you in to AT&T Wi-Fi hotspots is nice. Has anyone got that to work on a Nexus 7?
Would also like to get it to work on s Nexus 5 but that is for another day.
Thanks.

Anyone have 4.4 16S on Tmo US tethering completely stock without root yet?
I'm pretty angry that I lost my ability to tether with this update and really don't want to root!

I see that you have made the same post over 4 threads. Tethering is fine, unless you did the LTE hack. Since you're not rooted, you did not do the LTE hack? Which then, this would not affect you anyway.

Care to detail your setup because I'm not the only one with this problem? Me: completely stock never rooted, never unlocked N4 4.4 16S Tmo US and could tether all day/night until the recent OTA from JB.

Can you provide any further information on why exactly this is the case? I am indeed enjoying unlimited tethering, (just got off the phone with Tmo and they told me I should be throttled, my speedtest says otherwise) using the LTE hack. I am curious if I should be worried about setting off any red flags by using either too much data or by using the wrong type of data. For example streaming Netflix, etc. I would like to understand more about Tmo's monitoring and how it relates to this LTE hack.

Don't listen to that. I use to tether over lte with my N4 before of cracked using KK. T-Mobile never said anything, nor did they cease my service.

I tried loading a tmobile rom but the wifi would not connect?

My first question to you would be do you have the correct APN configured for T-Mobile?

Wifi calling won't work for you even with a tmobile rom. Reason. It's tied into the tmobile service. However I've flashed a rom from every carrier and can confirm all but wifi calling works on non tmobile roms. Flash rom> flash wifi bluetooth data fix (find it on tmobile forum under international rom port) > flash kernel> flash csc files for your carrier (opitonal)

Out of curiosity, have those who have used T-Mobile SIM been able to get MMS? I found all the APN settings online in multiple places. Even used the APN from my TMO Moto X and can't get MMS to work. Always gets stuck in "downloading".
I haven't tried it on a bone stock TW ROM yet. Maybe issues with messaging apps on other ROMs??
Everything else works flawlessly. Even better speeds and signal strength than VZW in my area.
Won't see sim card.
I have a Verizon note 3 and it won't see my T-Mobile sim card. No matter what the sim won't register and I get a X over the signal bars. I already tried a Verizon sim and it works perfectly so I know it's not a hardware issue. Any solutions or ideas?
do a hard reset and then after that make sure your SIM card is the correct one its clean the contacts are in the correct position and then finally it should load up
if I may ask did you activate the phone when you first turn it on if not you're able to bypass the activation while using a Verizon dummy SIM card or no sim
once you load up your tmobile sim card in the top left notification area you should see where it says unknown sender is inserted
once you see this message you should be able to call anyone you'd like

Hey Kevin,
How about we trade phones an call it a day lol, i'm looking for a Verizon Note 3 since my company phone is Verizon (iphone5) - anyways my personal phone is a Note 3 for T-Mobile and was unlocked by receiving the password from T-Mobile (sim unlock) but still can't use it on Verizon. Msg me if interested please.
Thanks,
Daniel
So verizon note 3, can i use it internationally?
with the note 2 i rooted, flashed beans rom, then used hiAPN when I went overseas.
Note 3, much more difficult now?
Thanks~
You also have to change the Internet provider setting under network and select tmobile. There's a video about it on YouTube.

Hey guys,
Quick question. Has any SPRINT user been successful in activating and using the nexus 6p gold edition? I purchase one and was able to activate it just fine. However, I am unable to receive calls. I have tried everything and also went to a sprint store and they can't seem to get it to work either. I have tried multiple SIM cards with same issue. I recently purchased a 64GB silver edition and it works just fine. So I am curious to see if anyone else has been able to get the GOLD edition to work properly?
Thank you
I do not have the issue nor do I have the gold model but I'd update Prl and reboot and see if it still does it. If so I'd try flashing factory image via fastboot.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Thank you for your help. I have updated the PRL with no success. Also, I have re-flashed the stock 6.0.1 Build MMB29Q with no luck.
I loaded CM13 and the phone actually seemed to operate a little better. I received calls at first but about 1 hour later i stopped receiving calls.
One thing I should add...If I put the phone in 3g mode (turning LTE off) while running the stock 6.0.1 rom I receive calls just fine. It is only when I am connected to LTE that I do not receive calls. I can make calls, browse the web, and send text just fine.

There were people on Nexus 6 who experienced this same exact thing a few months ago. That's the device I owned prior to 6p. I never had the issue but I recall some people over on the Sprint Nexus 6 thread talking about this same thing. I'd check there for sure.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Yeah.
It's very aggravating. I've tried everything I can think of. I purchased another nexus 6p silver which works fine but the screen has a terrible pinkish hue at the top right corner. The gold edition screen is almost perfect. I was hoping I could fix the gold edition.

Like the other guy stated I have the N6 which was on Sprint but immediately after switching to Fi and using the ROM that was initially just for Fi I have never had the problem again with the same phone. I am now using the latest ROM which is independent of carrier and still problem free.

Nexus 6p on nougat 7.0 every once in a while the LTE symbol disappears and I have no data. Only fix is to reset phone! Tried toggling cellular data, and toggling airplane mode, sonar it's worked once to return data. Otherwise power cycle returns data. Anyone else experiencing this! Phone is refurbished but has been working great. Just trying to figure out if this is software or hardware related....thanks.

Did you do a Factory Reset after you updated? If you didn't I would recommend that if it persists.

The software itself yes, but carrier wise no.
T-Mobile has been having ongoing LTE issues for some time now in some areas. When I had my Note 5, had to constantly reboot to get LTE or any other data connectivity back.
I think it's only the T-Mobile and Project Fi (T-Mobile side) are having issues still.

Same here and when it happens, i use app lte on off app. Easy.
I have this same problem on TMO. If I try to use any radio higher than 2.50 (have tested all the way up to 3.75) my data will suddenly drop completely out of nowhere and not come back until I reboot. There seem to be certain areas near me that always make this happen when on those radios. I wonder if this is a regional issue or a hardware issue, doesn't seem to affect that many people.
I've also been dealing with issue. I'm almost certain it's an issue just with T-Mobile and maybe the phone communicating with towers. Went to d.c. not too long ago and didn't experience any issues but the same day I retuned to Pittsburgh the issue returned

This issue seems to be occurring to me as well. T-mobile is my carrier. It is really annoying since the only way out is to hard reboot the phone. You can't go into airplane mode and turn it off to get a signal like normal. Not quite sure what the issue is. It has happened on both stock and flashed roms. I have tried to see look at a logcat of the problem but it is a bit above my technical understanding.
I'm on the latest radio and bootloader and the problem is still occurring.
I think it happens when:
- Going away from wifi-coverage
- Going into area with poor cellular coverage
It's possible that being on 2G/3G may avoid the issue, but of course the speed sucks. I just tried going on 2G/3G and toggled wifi a few times. So far, mobile data is still ok. But the instant I enable LTE, mobile data is loss. Switching down to 2G/3G doesn't help. So another possible cause is:
- Switching from 2G/3G
My guess is that there is a bug with the LTE code on the phone that got introduced with a recent update.
Has been happening recently to me too as of last week. Random connection dropping for a few seconds. Usually, it will reconnect quickly and it'll show full signal, then it might die, or it might stay connected.
