Unable to camp to LTE - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am having problem camping to 4g networks although when I manually search the network, I can see 4g network available,which means it's not a band compatibility problem. My phone is rooted oos 2.2.1. I was able to use 4g 1 month ago and I left Malaysia and when I'm back, I can't seem to use it anymore. I have upgraded to 2.2.1 when I was overseas. So, I thought it was due to os, reflashing 2.2.1 doesn't help. Sometimes, it camps to 4g for a short while but during that time, I can't use data too
.. So I hope experts here and provide some suggestions.
Thanks!

Problems with tethering on HSPA+

I have a g2 and while iam at work, i would lose the hspa signal while iam tethering there. My signal would work fine but once i tether it would lose it signals and get no bars hence i got to restart my phone. But while using 2g only i can stay tethering and never get disconnected. Do you guys think the problem is my phone a defect? or is it because maybe t-mobile gots the new update coming out and it would disconnect you since we didnt pay the 15 fee or whatever. I didnt get the new OTA update yet for the official tether. I am rooted and use diff tether apps including pda net.
I was wondering if anyone have the same problem or is it due to the fact that the update will solve this problem. OR do i need a new replacement?
no help , or is it my hspa 4g network is bad around my area

[Q] Defy, AT&T EDGE only

I have an unlocked Defy from T-Mobile USA that I'm using with my AT&T service, but I'm only getting EDGE wherever I go, no UMTS at all, and I've even heard of people getting it to run on HSPA bands. I know already that HSPA is available everywhere from my home to my workplace, thanks to my Atrix 4G. I've rooted the Defy and it's running Cyanogenmod 7 latest. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I can find nothing on this forum or on Google to remedy the issue.
You should try to change the freq via baseband switcher.And restart.
Maybe you got the "2g only" checked in networks settings..uncheck that.
Settings >Wireless & networks > Mobile networks
You can also put automatic(2G and 3G) mode in GSM/UMTS network preferences.
Thanks for the reply Viper. I just noticed the baseband is set to some central Europe nonsense. Should I change it to one of the T-Mobile USA band settings? There's nothing there for AT&T.
Edit: I changed the baseband to US T-Mobile 3.Something, whichever was latest. 2G only was not checked. I'm still getting 2G only. Could it be my APN settings? Could I copy the APNs from my Atrix?
I'm having a problem with my AT&T connection as well, but I've been using my phone unlocked on the network since March with no problem. I'm new to modding, but OCD about streamlining my electronics. My friend suggested rooting my device and flashing a new ROM. I decided on stock Nordic Froyo, and it makes me so happy not to see all the T-mobile crap in my apps tray.
BUT the collateral damage is not so hot. I have no 3g or even 2g connection anymore. I tried the fix in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944258 and was able to get a signal with 4 bars instead of the previous state of emergency calls only, but no letters like E or 3g and no ability to use the internet/transfer data. I also installed the broadband switcher in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1052745 and tried all of the T-mobile US bands. No luck. I did rest the APN to default. No change. I've been using wifi, but will have to go back to work soon. Not having access to the smart part of my smartphone will feel sort of like having an arm cut off.
I'm not sure what to do next. I could try flashing another ROM, but from what I've read in the forums, that's no guarantee.
If anyone has any suggestions to help a noob, I'd be forever grateful.
Thanks in advance!
Thanks for the link, halah. Do I apply this as an update.zip from recovery? Or install?
Never mind, it won't work for me, for whatever reason.

[Q] RAZR M stuck on eHRPD - cannot get LTE

All -
I recently purchased a used RAZR M for my wife. She enjoyed borrowing my work phone, so I figured she'd like this. Except I can't get the damn thing to switch to an LTE band. I've swapped sim cards and thrown mine in, same thing. No 4G. I've compared it to my work phone and the settings *look* to be correct. In the same room, my work phone gets LTE, so I know it's not a signal strength issue where I am.
I don't know the history of the phone itself. Would this be the result of it being switched to GSM use? Is this a radio problem? Is this a firmware problem? Is this a PEBKAC issue?
Keep in mind, this is on stock. I'm not too keen on being stuck on stock, I don't have a lot of choices with it being locked and on KitKat right now.
I'd appreciate any help/insight that y'all can offer.
Still looking for some insight. For what it's worth, the phone is being used on VZW now, it just can't / won't get LTE.
Check with your provider that you are using the correct APN for LTE. I know my provider has a specific APN for LTE and another that will only connect using 3G. It took multiple calls to their broadband tech support before someone pointed me to the correct APN config.

Mate 8 Internet Issue with T-Mobile

I am really sorry for post duplicated, but I have only 5 days to return this phone which I absolutely love.
However this Internet issue is really bothering me.
I just bought my Mate 8 with build number NXT-L29C636B103, but I have been experiencing mobile data issues with my T-mobile carrier that only when I get 4G symbol, I can go online. Whenever I am getting either 3G or H+, I can not connect to internet at all.
I have tried my wife's T-mobile phone, at the same location, her phone will get 4G LTE, my phone will have 4G, whenever she is getting 4G, I am getting H+ or 3G, which I can not go online anymore but on her phone, it still works.
Is is because of the version of the Mate 8 I am getting or the setting is wrong, please help!!!!
Probably wrong settings. Check your apn. And also make sure your phone isn't set up to just LTE only in the phones hidden menu
Update the software also and then check access point settings and set manually.
I check the updater, but there is no new update at all.
About the APN, I have copied exactly the same setting as my wife's S6, but still this issue.
Basically, whenever I am getting 4G above the bar, I can go online, no problem at all. But whenever it comes 3G or H+, my internet completely dropped!
I don't have that problem on T-Mobile with the NXT-AL10. I can be on one bar of HSPA and go online. There are two things possible. You have a bad phone with a bad radio or T-Mobile is doing work in your area and that's why you have no internet on anything other than 4G. T-Mobile was like that in my area two years ago until they upgraded. I would think it's the service. Try turning off VOLTE and LTE Cat 6 CA and turn on Data Roaming and see if that fixes it.

I was actually trying to help out on this issue, on another forum as well. One thing we discovered is that the settings for LTE Cat 6 CA are not on the L29 model.
Dumb question but you aren't using a metal case are you? Any aluminum case will degrade wifi and LTE to the point where it might switch over to HSPA+ due to poor LTE reception.

I have the L29 model. On T-Mobile, I was getting 3 mbps down and 1.6 mbps up. So I tweaked it around and enabled Data Roaming. Now I am getting 15 down and 9 up. Much more reasonable.
Recently had a similar issue. I copied over the apn from a tmobile device and that was the issue.
Try the 2 apn setup that should be default when you reset apn.

I have T-Mobile and it works fast but do yours say "4G" instead of LTE too?

Any updates on this issue? I'm still getting extremely slow mobile data speeds.

G900M 6.0.1 update lost 4g (lte) connectivity

Afternoon all,
So, I'm in the US and on AT&T and couldn't get the 6.0 OTA update. I'm wildly guessing because phone is So Am and not No Am, so AT&T wouldn't update in the north. Update went fine, no issues that I can find with the the phone except now mobile data will not connect to 4g in my area. I have 2 G900m's, one is on 6.0.1 and the other is still on 5.0 . 5.0 connects to 4g, 6.0.1 connects to 3g...sitting right next to each other.
So. I know there are slight radio freq differences with the 900m. Is it possible that the firmware version i chose did not activate the 4g band when I updated? Any idea how I can tell which 900M stock roms would re-activate the 4g bands?
Or am I better off going back to 5.0 and living with it?
hmmm.. Looking at the AT&T update page, perhaps I should have tried with an update with as close to the baseband version as possible...CPH3 is what AT&T has and I'm running CPC3 which is Trinidad, I'll give the Argentine version a go (since my phone was originally a moveistar splash screen.
Thanks.
Well, that didn't fix the issue. Even though I'm connecting through AT&T towers, the data is connecting on CDMA. This isn't something the provider can affect is it? At least it's H+ instead of H...not sure how much of a boost that is though.
Let this be a lesson to you youngens....purchase a dang phone for YOUR region. oy!
pfft. ... .42Mbs down boy does that STINK!
Ok...YES I AM AN ID10T!!!
Mobile networks was defaulted to cdma...changed the default to LTE...wouldn't ya know it....4g. Put a fork in me...I'm done.
