Hi All,
I am using nexus 4 with my China Mobile sim card.
As far as you know, China Mobile do not support International 3G/4G networks. They are only running TD-SCDMA which do not support by nexus.
The signal on my nexus 4 is not so stable. It sometimes lost signal and wont come back unless I switch to fly mode on and off.
Also the EDGE data is worse than iphone. The iphoen users can navigate website well I do not have any data connections.
I didn't root my neuxs now. Is there any suggestions? like root the phone and use some other base band. etc...
Thanks & regards
Well you could root and attempt using an earlier baseband such as .33 although it may easier to attempt to switch carriers.

how about choose only 2G mode in your network settings, if the 3G is meaningless for you
Is it working on 2G only?

I am heading to China soon, and want to use China Mobile on my LG Nexus 4 as well.
I'm using it and I don't have problems.
Well...it's China mobile and you only have edge.
For Google services...at times it is like that.
PS.
I'm on stock 4.2.2 and rooted
I have full bar signal in my area
Anything not china = relatively slow

Hi, I suggest you choose China Unicom if you want high speed data. China Mobile only support TD-SCDMA which nexus 4 does not support.
Same Here

I also have the sam problem, I am a china mobile user, and edge sucks in china even with iPhone. I wonder if i should switch to china Unicom as they support 3g with nexus.

I live in China too... wanted to buy a moto xt1080.... impossible. Signal reception sucks for china mobile where I live..... Also now no google now.....
I've the Chinese oneplus 2 just wondering how everyone's is doing /holding up?

Mine is great, I'm rooted and on Oxygen 2.0.1 - although today I experienced an issue where the phone wouldn't unlock with fingerprint - first time it happened since having the OTA update (happened frequently on the first build). LTE works fine on EE and dual sim works in active/standby mode (cannot receive calls on both sims at the same time, only one at a time which is fine for me).

Many users of Nexus 6P Nexus 5X Nexus 6 have LTE problems with Truemove H network (Thailand).:crying:
The problems started around late July, 2016.
Many users reported LTE dropped , lost , can't connect , etc.
The others network provider do not have this LTE problems.
( AIS , DTAC , etc.)
Now it is not clear that Truemove H doing something with LTE signal and/or network devices.
( May be another phones/tablet might have those LTE issues too.)
The temporary solution is select the prefer network mode to 3G only.
Have you tried pure nexus ROM? I had a LTE problem with RR ROM and switched to pure nexus. Phone works flawlessly now.

I just join the facebook group of Nexus users in Thailand and found !!! the provider doing something that cause LTE problems.
So the resurrection remix rom has fixed the LTE problem?

None of ROMs include stock ROM will made LTE work good with TrueMove H network.

Thank God I thought I was having a hardware issue with my Nexus 6P. I'm having exactly the same problem with TrueMove H in Thailand. Whenever you choose LTE as preferred network, your cellular network will disconnect and there's no way to get connected again until you change network preference to 3G and reboot the phone. So the only workaround is to choose 3G as preferred network, which means that you are unable to use 4G. What's strange is that 4G on iPhone and TrueMove H works perfectly fine. I'm running Pure Nexus ROM but it seems like people with stock ROM and no root have this issue as well. I've spoken to True customer support for 3 times and they have not been able to fix the issue.
Do you have any link to a discussion about this issue so that we can follow up for updates?
That's a issue here in the states as well. The Weird thing is, it's only the Nexus 6P being affected. They're saying Google should have a fix Monday August 8th. That's T-Mobile & Verizon, for sure. I've heard all carriers. Apparently it's a GPS Issue. They telling carriers to have us turn off out GPS, & restart our phones while the carrier resets our location. This is helping some.

Thanks. From the discussion in the Facebook group it looks the solution is to downgrade radio to 2.50. Have you tried it?
By the way, 4G worked fine when I went to Hua Hin for holiday and stopped working when I returned to Bangkok. So it looks like the issue is isolated to areas like Bangkok.

I just flashed https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087016478 for 2 hours and still live in Nonthaburi Province.
I found that my RR ROM is good with this Radio and 4G LTE also work fine.:laugh:
I wonder why A.O.B. mobileshop technician know 2.50 radio will fix the issue with Truemove H.
Could all you guys and girls with a S8 or S8+ confirm if you have the places tab on your dialer and if so what network are you on and what firmware revision do you have installed as well?
Yes I do. Unbranded S8. AQDG firmware.

Thanks for the quick response (xda won't let me press the thank you button for some reason)
P.S I am on Vodafone with the phone brought directly from Vodafone.
Looks like for some reason Vodafone have decided to disable it on their firmware, got confirmation from a mate and others on the interweb that they also have the places option on the dialer.
I think it's network dependant. I have an un-branded UK phone and places doesn't show up. The option to see caller ID is there but greyed out.
Maybe it is to do with network. FWIW I'm on Three.
I have the places tab available, my S8+ is from the O2 Store with O2 firmware.
AQDD Firmware

Yup I've got it too.
O2 UK.
i have this to im on 3 network but the distances show in km . i want miles how the hell do you change it ? all other apps display miles ?
So to everyone who has this is it any good then?

Need to get my phone unlocked to test it with my works EE sim
Got bored so flashed my phone to XEU and this enabled places and wifi calling is still working so now I have a phone which has both features enabled with less bloatware so all round much happier now.
Still need to get it unlocked but cannot do this until more than 30 days has passed.
how do you change the units from km to miles in places tab ?

Anyone figure this out?
From what I can gather there is no way to change this. Samsung has decided we shall all have to use kilometres.
Works for me, on EE with EE handset. AQH3
We know how much you like to stream, ahem, "videos", and so cellular data is mega-important. Rate this thread to express how you think the Samsung Galaxy S10's LTE performs. A higher rating indicates that it's fantastic: throughput is excellent and signal strength is top-notch.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add.
Not as good as my Moro Z Play for picking up signal in. At work most of the times I get 1 or if I'm lucky 2 bars.
The S10 (Exynos) cannot hold on to a 4G data, while the Moto Z can
Tried two different networks (O2 and Vodafone), same result
Even iPhones (seen lots of people with 7/7+) have no trouble
Keep interrupting phone calls whenever the signal is not good (worse than an S7)
4G will randomly stop working even does it displays 4G+ wit full bars.
I'd have to restart te phone to solve the problem
4G/LTE on S10+ Exynos working better than Note9 Exynos on US T-mobile. No issues so far.
Working great. Good speed results on AT&T 5GE

Did you have to change the CSC or anything? I'm getting worse signal than with my exynos s7.

No, it worked fine out of the box. TPA CSC is what I have.
Make sure to compare the actual signal value RSSI as signal bars can be misleading

Thanks for the reply. Yeah I'm at -120ish so basically no service whereas my s7 was closer to -90. I'm also using the TPA CSC and assumed that was the problem but maybe not. I'm tempted to flash an unlocked US firmware.

That's a huge difference. There is no US unlocked firmware for Exynos though. You maybe able to flash unlocked UK firmware for Exynos

I didn't think there was either but I ran into one the other day on imei dot info (can't post links yet). I have the s10e (G970F/DS) btw, I am too rough on my phones to have a curved display lol

Hmm I'd say only flash firmware from reputed sites like Samfirmware. That firmware you mention is likely mislabeled or incorrectly categorized.
S10E at least has a working fingerprint reader lol

True. Do you think it'd make a difference to flash T-Mobile firmware from another country ( like German, Chile, etc.) Or one that's unbranded/unknown CSC?

I think BTU UK unlocked should be a good start. Factory reset may also help. I'd also try different SIM card to see if that bad signal issue is limited to the SIM or T-mobile
You should also check if you live in area that has band 71 primary coverage as that is not supported on this model

I haven't tried a factory reset but T-Mobile did give me a new sim to see if that'd fix it. I checked me local coverage and I have all the bands for my area so I'll try a factory reset and maybe different firmware. BTU didn't show up on sammobile btw, but I may try the "unknown" one.
I think Exynos has multi CSC firmware and the active CSC gets decided on which SIM you put in after factory reset. But since you're on T-MOBILE USA it'll default to original CSC

Same here with Snapdragon S10 in Hong Kong.
I have s10e and after the security update of 1st April I am facing issue with the network. It's like when the network setting are on lte/3g/2g , then only 4g is working with no network for calling, it shows not registered on network. If i change it to 3g/2g then there is no 4g signal, but calling is possible. It was not there before the update.
I am using Airtel (in India)
for best signal, you need Mi9 (the flagship of the year), have both so yeah, Samsung shows very few bars in the same locations.
