Data stops working intermittently.. Full bars.. Am I the only 1 - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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!!

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.

Nexus 4 AT&T connection lag?

Not sure what to call this really. Every since I started using the nexus my at&t hspa connection is terrible. Almost like lagging and "timeouts" constantly.
Example: I'm in Google chrome with 4 full blue bars on hspa. I type in a web address and hit go. It takes 5-10 seconds before the up and down arrows on the signal bars show up and then it starts loading the page. For 5-10 seconds it does nothing.
Same issue in apps. For example, in dice with buddies, I'll submit my move and it won't take it for like 10 seconds. I've never had this issue with any of my previous phones.
Do you guys know of better APN settings or something? I'm just using whatever stock settings there were.
I think it's a radio issue, where it disconnects spontaneously
It's annoying as hell and I'm about to sell the phone because of it.
Search the forum for the best APN. I'm on ATT with the nexus 4 and have no issues.

I concur. I not only had to change my APN, but I also had to call AT&T to make sure I was provisioned on an HSPA account.

No issues with ATT hspa network here as well... May be your area has bad att hspa network?

Data service issues

I'm not getting any WhatsApp messages unless I turn my screen on for a few seconds then they all come in. Any ideas what this is?

Are you on WiFi? If you are, there's a wifi delay bug.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
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

Random Signal Loss

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?

T-Mobile LTE down?

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.

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

3G disconnects when on the phone

It it normal for my mobile internet to disable when I'm talking on the phone? And when I cut off it comes back
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
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.
