Hey I'm not sure if this problem was addressed already but I just got my N6 a few days ago and noticed a popping sound while I was making a call or talking to someone on the phone. I was messing around with the settings to see if changing some things would fix it and voila! No more popping/crackling sounds while calling or talking to peeps on my phone. I'm running Pure Nexus (Build 9/08 I believe) so I'm not sure if this applies to aosp and stock ROMs or just aosp ROMs.
Just go to Settings>More>Cellular networks and turn off Enhanced 4G LTE mode.
I think you lose your LTE service while calling someone and it turns into an "H" symbol so I'm guessing you can't surf the web and stuff while on a phone call. After a call, I waited a couple seconds and checked if my internet would connect right after and it did even though the H symbol was there still. It might be different for some but try it out and let me know what happens on your guy's side!
This was a problem for me on stock, too. I turned it off yesterday and it seems to have done the trick.
Are you on T-Mobile? My issues just started recently. The calls were fine with that setting turned on up until a week or so ago.
Yeah I'm on T mobile. I've only had the phone for 3 days and just noticed it yesterday. I rooted it and installed an aosp ROM right when I got it so I'm not sure if it was happening before
Thanks for the info dude. I have had this problem on stock and on all the chroma versions i tried (with different combinations of radios), but didnt notice it on M (xtrasmooth rom).
Back on chroma 9/27 build, and shall try your solution.
Oh and if it matters i use "wifi preferred" wifi calling.
Thanks again man.
I do not have that option on mine. "Enhanced 4g LTE"
So far so good switching off "enhanced 4g lte" has fixed the problem for me.

I think it is only available in XT1103 north american variant of Nexus6. I don't have that option with my XT1100 european variant as well.
Yep, that option is not showing on my international Nexus 6. ?
I have XT1103 and it is still not a option...must be bacuse I am on Verizon.
Theres another option. I was on the m developer 3 preview radio and had the same problem. I flashed the boot loader and radio from lmy48m build and the crackling went away with advanced lte enabled. Even saw band 12 on that radio. The baseband is 95R.

Hi All,
Not quite sure what happened here.. Upgraded to latest nscollab yesterday, everything was working fine. Decided to try the "Antennas" app to see if it'd show where the towers are near me, switched to 2g mode, played around with it a bit, switched off 2g mode and now my phone does not see telus at all. When I go into search networks, telus simply doesn't show up and my phone stays in emergency mode.
It sees rogers fine and is able to connect to rogers with a friend's rogers sim. I've tried my telus im in other phones and it works fine, other people's telus sims in my phone don't work either.
I've tried reverting to an earlier backup as well as going back to a stock backup. I've also tried reflashing both the kb1 and kb3 radios, no luck.
Anyone know what might be the issue here?
both Telus / Bell do not have 2G
they only have 3G, as in the VOICE only works via 3G
it was the same using the SGS i9000
Did the rogers SIM work on 2G (Edge) only? I am guessing Rogers and Fido will work, but only on 2G
Same happened to me, on Fido, my phone could no longer connect to 3G...Only 2G after playing with settings. I returned the phone
The reason why Telus-Bell SIM would not work at all at this point is that they only support 3G...
That makes sense, but i don't have it set to 2g mode anymore. It should be seeing 3g just fine.

Just tried that, nothing. I think that's the same as a wipe data in recovery?
I've tried:
- Reverting back to a stock backup
- Reverting to an earlier working backup
- Doing a factory reset on both of the above
- Reflashing the radio on both

This just happened to me, I switched to 2G and got nothing but com.android.phone quit errors, now I can't get back on 3G. Flashed radios, data wipe, everything... wtf... it's back to stock now and still can't get on Telus... double wtf...
Christ... finally got it... my head hurts from all this reading
For some reason it was on the wrong band. Do this in dialer... *#*#4636#*#*, phone information, menu, select radio-band, USA, and should work make sure its on WCDMA preferred as well under phone information

I had the same issue when in Canada, and forgot I had the band set to Europe (my region).
I set it to Automatic detect, i know catching signal will take longer. But then I dont forget
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
i had the same problem since may 14th (sat), thanks for the fix!!!!!!!
Same thing happened here, same solution. Glad you stumbled on it too!
As the title says, had the same problem on my Nexus S (running on Bell), I believe manually switching the 2g/3g toggle in cyanogenmod rom accidentally is what set it off.
Glad you found the solution!! Was maddening for me; knew there must be a way to fix through the UI, but until I fond it, phone was a wifi mp3 player :/
I have had my SGS4 since June running CM with no issues connecting to LTE, but I recently tried PA android and could only connect to H+ as the fastest network connection and Network Mode defaulted to WCDMA preferred and could get no network connection at all if I changed from that. I tried going back to CM and still had the same issue. Reflashed stock using Odin and have since tried Shostock and CM again, but still cannot connect to LTE. I also tried my sim in my Nokia Lumia and get LTE on that so there doesn't seem to be an issue with my plan or sim card.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
Sorry if this is a silly question, but in the interests of ruling out all possibilities: Are you sure that it's the actual connection, and not just the icons? Maybe you're used to seeing a 4G/LTE icon that isn't used in another ROM.
It wouldn't really make sense if you went back to CM and that issue persists, unless an icon setting is preventing you from seeing the icon. It might be worth checking the settings, because as I recall there are plenty of ways to customise your icon area.

I am sure it is LTE and not an icon issue, Before flashing PA I was getting 30-40mbps and now the highest data speed I can get it 3-6mbps. If I set the network mode to GSM/WCDMA/LTE (which is what it has always defaulted to before) I cannot connect to a the AT&T network until I set it back to WCDMA preferred. As I mentioned in my previous post it is only this phone, with the Windows Phone I tested using the sim worked fine on LTE. Also as I mentioned this happens on several roms, and has continued after a complete reset to the factory rom using Odin.
Hello! Been using my phone for quite some time with LTE activated and working fine. Flashing custom roms and trying out fresh modems i suddenly noticed that I can only get E, H and H+ data connectivity. My LTE connection is gone. I've already checked with my provider and they said that my account is still activated. I went back to stock rom, gone through all the settings and still no LTE. So I'm wondering is it possible to fry the LTE receiver chip on my phone from over use? Are there similar incidents out there? Is there a fix?

If you dial *#*#4636#*#* do you get the testing menu? If so, go into Phone Information and check you are set to LTE/GSM auto or similar.
Otherwise, maybe you have flashed an incompatible LTE modem?
When I first started using CM13 my signal went to roaming when I know I should have service. I have data roaming off and I've checked to make sure I'm not getting charged for roaming and I'm not. My phone works as it should and I can do everything I need still so I was hoping it would be fixed in one of the new updates. I am on the newest nightly build as of this morning and the R above my signal is still there, just wondering if anyone else is having this problem or know the cause?
I have the same issue on my Nexus 6
Same issue here. Nexus 6 Verizon, just switched to CM13 and I'm stuck on roaming - so far I've tried airplane mode for a minute or two, turning the data off and on, turning the phone off and on, and chatting with Verizon support in case they could do anything remotely. The one thing I haven't done though is try putting another sim card into my phone to see if I could divine any information that way.
Any help would be appreciated.
So after trying just about everything I decided to cave in and jump back to CM12. It was there that I noticed a key difference:
CM12's settings -> mobile network settings, has the following sub-options:
Data Roaming on/off
Preferred Network Type
Enhanced 4G LTE Mode on/off
System select
Access Point Names
CM13 (nightly #2) only has:
Data Roaming
Preferred Network Type
System Select
...while in all honesty I don't know what it all means except to say that it appears to be missing some features of the CM12 nightly I'm using on my Nexus 6 on Verizon. I guess I'll try back in a week or three to see if everything is working fine.
For whatever reason I had LTE pop up for like 2 seconds but went back to R and has stayed since..
On Sprint's Network, unlocked bootloader & critical partitions. Anytime I even receive a notification for a phone call coming in, my LTE is dropped instantly. Deny or hang up the call, it comes back. I've read that Sprint's 3G can't handle voice and data at the same time, but this is 4G. Wifi is also completely useless on this phone as it stays connected for about 60 seconds tops.
Tried doing a complete wipe and reset to both Pie stable and Q beta 6, same exact thing. Tried all the network options in settings and nothing.
Does anyone with Sprint have working LTE during a phone call? I'm trying to figure out if it's a **** copy I got from Amazon, or the network. Thanks.

I have the issue. I also can't get LTE+ to work either. I'm on Boost, but they use Sprint. All stock roms and I can't get 4G at all on custom roms. I bought mine directly from Essential.

I can't say anything about Sprint, but VoLte on Verizon behaves the same way for me on Q beta 6. If the radio cycles for any reason I lose VoLte even if it shows selected. I have to toggle it in network settings for it to work.
Just curious, if you go into the phone info with *#*#4636#*#*, does it show that VoLte is provisioned?

It's grayed out for me. I can't enable it. Maybe calling Boost customer service might result in fixing it.
