[Q] Low call quality and network disconnections - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm using omnirom with unleashed kernel, but I had this problem long time ago and I just got tierd of finding solutions.
So the problem never gone away.
I'm experiencing data and cellular disconnections, tried to move to another cellular company but it didn't help. People are calling me and i don't get any call, or I can't enter any website till I turn airplane mode on and off.
People on the other side of the call say they sometimes can barely hear me because of the low quality of the call, I hear them just fine.
I'm running the latest(?) modem and radio
Don't know where to check exactly but the basebend version is 2.0.1701.03
I had this problem way before updating to this radio.
Any suggestions?

I would download the google official firmware and restore to stock. If the problem is still there it is a hardware issue. Probably a bad mic...

Maybe but it won't explain the network disconnections.

Tired of the Wizard losing calls...

I've been losing many calls with my Wizard. The callers tell me that my phone rings and rings but I do not answer. I have voicemail disabled. I don't know if I'm losing SMS also but I haven't noticed it yet.
Some strange things that happened to me:
1) I was playing Final burn and noticed the classic slow downs that you see when you're about to receive an SMS or when your phone is ringing, but the phone did not ring. I kept playing and when I got home my father told me he called me many times, and I am sure it was during the time I was playing. It seems the phone was receiving the call but for some reason it did not ring.
2) I was near some speakers and heard the classic interference buzzing noise you hear when you're about to receive a call or SMS, it was constant, but the phone did not ring. I then took the phone and placed it up the speakers to make sure it was my phone and sure it was because the noise increased. I then turned the phone on and after two seconds it started ringing. I answered and the caller told me the phone rang many times before I answered.
This seems to be a power saving issue... I'm using IPL 3.08, SPL 3.08, GSM 2.47.11, OS 2.18.7.8 (spanish). Provider is Telecom Personal here in Argentina.
It is very annoying to come somewhere and hear "Hey I called you and you did not answer!!!" or worst yet, "Hey I called you many times during the day and you did not answer!!!"
It is a problem on the phone for sure because the provider does not say my phone isn't available, it just rings and rings.
Does anybody know what can I try to solve this? It is very annoying!!
Many thanks in advance!
Try updating your radio rom. I had the same problem with an older Radio rom like 2.07 or something then changed it to the latest one for my country (UK) and it works fine now. If you still get problems flash back to the orginal rom designed for your device.
here is the latest 2.69 radio:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard/Radio_Roms/faria 02.69.11.rar
Many thanks for the link. I just updated the ROM and will be testing it from now on... hope it fixes the problem!!
Its common for anyone with a Burned ROM.
there are many threads on it. mainly Cingular having issues, but I guess your provider can have them too.
Check around the Wizard forums here
Hello,
I have also problems with it.
I have T-Mobile NL (The Netherlands).
Still losing calls with 2.69.11...
Today, a friend of mine called me home and said "Hey I'm calling you to your cellphone and you don't answer!". I told him "Hmm please call me right now". He put the speakerphone and I heard through the land line that the phone was calling, but my phone did not ring. I turned it on and voila... it started ringing and I could accept the call. THIS IS VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY ANNOYING!!!!!!!!
Any clues, anyone??????? Should I try WM6? I don't want to reinstall my programs!! And there's no spanish version of WM6!! I'd hate to do that!!
Maybe I can try with a lower version of the radio??
Thanks!!
When you say you "turn it on", what exactly do you mean?

Unless I'm missing something here, I think that's generally the way it works -- your phone has to be ON before it will ring.
I'm pretty sure there is a spanish WM6 ROM floating around...in the WM thread
I think what he meant by 'turn it on', is waking-up the phone from suspend/sleep mode. Read his first post, regarding the speaker-thing.
Anyway, I'm not sure about spanish ROM, but isn't it the most stable Radio is 2.19? I have read somewhere, that some of these newer version of radio has this problem.
least troublesome among the radio's is "2.19", so i suggest download it and test it out
Im using 2.25 radio which was included in wizard love. It works perfectly that i know of anyway i used to get calls that would ring for 2 rings then nothing and people said they called but no reply so i upgraded my radio rom and it was fine. Make sure you have a good signal aswell because if you only have one bar sometimes its not good enough to recieve a call.
With "turn it on" yes, I meant pressing the power button to wake up the phone. Of course I did not meant "turn it on" from a total off state. I'd have to wait for it to boot if I do that... and it takes around a minute so the call would be lost anyway
I'll try 2.19 with the hope it will solve it... will post the results after a few days...
Thanks to all!!!
I checked the FTP and noticed that there are two radio versions for 2.19: UK and NL. What's the difference between them? The size difference is big... 2.7mb vs 2.2mb. Telecom Personal works on 850/1900 so which one should I try?
Thanks!!
Marton
Any clues?
I've noticed that i dont get any calls when the gprs connection is alive and transferring data (check email/web etc.)... anyone else confirm this?
I don't use GPRS... I lose calls without using it.
I installed 2.19UK two days ago. I will test it for a few days to see if this version loses calls as well...
Well, after two weeks of testing, I am glad to say that I have had no reports of unanswered calls so I think my phone will live the rest of its life with 2.19UK.
Yieeeeeeeeeeeeee-Haw!!! Now I DO have a phone!!!

[Q] Unable to make a call and several FC's?

I;m sorry if this has been discussed before but I can't seem to find an answer for it. I have an Epic and it works great except for minor problems usually resolved by looking through the forums. Although my dad has the exact same phone and I put whatever Rom I am currently using on his phone so that he can have a fantastic phone. He has had Frozen 1.1, 1.2 and Randomrom 2.2. They have all been istalled with Journaling on. The rom will work fine but then out of nowhere he will have FC's and will not be able to make phone calls but can still receive them. Any idea what is going on? We have the same phone, modem and rom but he seems to have problems. The only difference I can figure out is that he lives in an area that has NO signal for any carrier and so his phone is constantly switching back and forth from Sprint and roaming which of course drains his battery like crazy. Could that cause the phone to wig out on him no matter which software he is running. Thanks for any help provided.
Do you have an airave? If not Odin back to stock to see if it works then root and flash again.

They do not use an airwave and I have done several odin's and reflashed and still the same problem. I've tried to see if he is doing something before it happens to slueth it out but he it seems to happen at random times. It use to be just tons of FC's but figured it was due to haing journaling off so I fixed that but now he has less FC's sometimes but now with the unable to mae outgoing calls problem. I'm just frustrated because I try to help my family with their smartphones and they have nothing but problems with them but me, the one who actually plays on his phone too much, never has any seriuos problems.
It may just be the No signal area. If there is no signal it can't dial out. If there is no signal for any carrier then you can't even try Roam Control.

[Help?]Verizon S5 - Can't Receive or Make calls.

I'm having a constant problem with my phone. It seems like any time I leave the house and return, I'm unable to make or receive calls, until I reboot or switch airplane mode on/off. I still receive and send text/mms just fine, it's only calls. Anyone experience anything similar or have any ideas what may be going on? I have a constant 3-4 bar LTE signal.

Same problem
I am also experiencing this problem. I can send texts and otherwise use data to connect to websites and such, but cannot make or receive calls. When someone calls me, it goes straight to voicemail. When I make a call it does not even start ringing, or beep at the start of a call to indicate the connection.
I had this issue when i first got my phone. i had to call verizon and they updated something on their side and reset a few things.

Part of me thinks this wouldn't be a bad thing to have, just in case that pesky Ex decides today is the day she wants to call you. lolz
Nothing Worked
If anyone else is facing this problem, I would like to say that all Verizon could do was send me a refurbished phone. Even after a factory reset and resetting the network (on their end) worked. I hope this problem doesn't affect too many people.

I had an issue with my S5 connecting to 4GLTE (Because of something stupid I did playing around). Chat give Verizon a ring (or chat with them on their website) and they will have you do the following:
1. Turn off WiFi.
2. Power down your phone
3. They will resync the signal (and do other secret things)
4. Power up your phone.
5. Your phone will reconnect to 4GLTE, the radio will then recycle, then connect back.
I've had zero issues since I did this a few days ago. Wouldn't hurt to try. Have your IMEI number ready for them incase they need it.
Solution, sort of

Didn't work for me unfortunately. I ended up going back to Costco and swapping it out for a new one. Back in business....for now. Thanks for the help.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5, 4G LTE, Verizon it can make calls and send text fine the problem is that it cannot receive calls and text. Grateful your assistance in resolving this issue.
I haven't had the issue for a while but I had to get a new phone from Verizon .

T-mobile and updated to B29 - Problems?

So I haven't updated my phone yet to B29 but looking at the ZTE forum there seems to be some connectivity issues with T-mobile and B29. Anyone of you guys who has updated and uses T-mobile that can verify this issue? Don't want to go through the whole update process and reinstalling everything if my phone is not going to work with the update.
Cheers!
ZTE thread
I have updated and don't have any issues to report so far.
Bluetooth works, cell signal is fine, wifi is fine. Still can't use the fingerprint reader with Android Pay....

I've got problems with my phone. I have sound for ringtones and other alerts, but there's no sound when making a phone call. They can't hear me and I can't hear them. I'm on T-Mobile, but I tried the my company's ATT SIM card in there and still the same problem
no problems at all on t-mobile
im on tmobile too no problems

No issues on Tmobile here either...
I lost a hefty bit of connectivity in my office, T-Mobile stock after a factory reset and fresh apns
No problems for me after update. Calls are crystal. (sorta, always been crap at my house t-mobile and Verizon)
Thanks guys. I updated my phone and haven't had any issues either.
T-Mobile is good for me also. No issues.

If you have "OK Google" enabled from any screen, it messes with the microphone during calls. Disable that option in the Google app under settings, voice, OK Google. See if that helps.

There might be a software issue when you update. Try to format everything then reinstall it again.
Or you can disable OK Google service and live without it.

The only problem I have so far after the update is that whenever I turn the screen off, Facebook closes, and some other apps won't do background playback anymore like they could on B29

That might be a power management setting issue. Check the settings for those apps

Some annoying issue with US LeEco Pro 3.

I bought this Le Pro3 the first day it came out on the flash sale. I really like this phone but there are some things that are pretty annoying. I fixed a lot of it but some issues are still there.
I have the stock ROM with 5.8.021s
Bluetooth.
Since I had the phone I left the bluetooth on all the time. I never had any issue with the battery draining or anything like that. But with the lasted update 5.8.021s, it seems like the blutooth turns itself off when I am not using it(when I leave my car) and turns itself on again automatically when I go in my car. I understand why they do this, it is to save battery. This would be fine if it worked. The issue that I am having is even though it is turned on by itself, it does not automatically connect to my car. This is an issue with all 3 of my car. I did NOT have this issue before. Is there a way to turn off this feature.
Gmail
I have many emails account but the only email app I use is the official google Gmail app. Randomly the "Auto-sync" will be turned off and I would need to turn it back on again. This is really annoying, when it is off, no email is pushed to me. After I turn it on, it would work for a while and again randomly the auto sync will be turned off. When I say random, it could be within a couple of hour, a day, or a few days. I can't figure out any patterns or what would trigger it. I don't use any auto clean up or anything.
Dropped call
I rarely make any phone call but I noticed that when I do make calls at home I need to turn OFF my wifi on my phone. If I don't I will loose the call within a minute. I am talking about just regular phone call, not though a special app or anything. I don't know if the phone uses wifi calling or anything like that. Even if it does, I don't understand why I would loose the call because I am usually next to the router.
If anyone has any answer or help please let me know.
I dont have any of these issues. Try restoring it from factory settings(if possible for you)
I have none of these issues, and I travel for work and actually -do- use wifi calling off and on here and there. Go to your wifi calling and make sure the wifi calling is turned off. Then do a network reset. Then make sure you do NOT have battery assistant turned on. Then go into the battery settings and make sure you do not have any auto power down or off settings turned of for any clock times.

Did you happen to flash any Chinese roms to lose wifi calling feature? If you are on a unmodified software, you better contact LeEco support....

No, I didn't have to enable the setting to appear. It's simply there and toggled on or off. Perhaps it only shows up if your SIM card is from a carrier that supports it? I've used two different sim cards in my phone (AT&T AND TMOBILE), both of which support wifi calling, and the option for wifi calling was there both times.

Bought the phone on the first day of the flash sale. I have the latest stock rom and have ATT.
I just got this phone and use it on AT&T. I don't have the WiFi calling option. I did use it on my Note 5.
My biggest problem is Android Auto. It didn't work at first so I read on here that resetting it reinstalling the Android Auto app fixes it. I cleared data and cache and it worked the next two times I plugged it in to my car and hasn't since. I tried clearing data and cache again but still no luck.
As discussed you can NOT toggle wifi calling on and off with an AT&T based SIM. This has led to ongoing tech support discussions with LeEco concerning calling issues with my LeEco Pro3, US version.
Specifically, when WIFI is ENABLED (not WIFI CALLING as this isn't functional), outbound call ringing is hit or miss. There's a period of silence and either the call is suddenly answered or disconnects and gives up. If wifi is DISABLED outbound call ringing ALWAYS happens. Compare that to my AT&T branded Note 4 whereby any outbound call rings regardless if wifi is active.
Further, I have had issues with INBOUND calls where my Pro3 does not ring. It's hit or miss and happens regardless of location. First knowledge of a phone call missed is voicemail. Some have dismissed this as the vagaries of cell phones but in my case it seems to happen more frequently than the 'occasional' missed call.
I'm starting to wonder if the outbound and inbound issues are related, and whether there's some inherent software problems related to ringing when wifi is present and functional. Obviously disabling wifi looks to be a workaround, albeit a poor one since I'm on a limited data plan whereby it's easy to forget to turn wifi back on.
No outbound ringing is simply an annoyance I can live with but the failure of inbound ringing is simply unacceptable. I'll probably sell this phone and have gone back to a Note 4.
Twrp backup
Hi Can anyone please perform a stock twrp backup for their handsets. I am in a soft brick and it would be greatly appreciated.
