Data slowed down for no reason - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am running Nougat on Verizon, am rooted and my data has slowed to a crawl. I have tried a clean install with a stock rom both rooted and non rooted, tried with a custom rom both rooted and non rooted and my data is still slower than ever. I am nowhere near my data limit and have called Verizon and nothing seems wrong on their end. I live in an area where LTE gets great reception. This is driving me nuts. Does anyone have any ideas?

Have you tried installing another radio and bootloader through fastboot?

Verizon screeching during calls fixed?

I bought a LG G2 on launch day and loved it except the screeching during voice calls. I had it swapped several times until it was realized that it was a software issue. My friends exchanged their G2s for the same issue. My question is, has this been fixed already or is the update rolling out today meant to fix this issue? Thanks.
That's definitely not a software issue. I've not had a single issue with my g2. To me that sounds like hardware. Easiest way to find out: download stock unrooted Rom in verizon development section, flash it and then test. If you're rooted just download the rooted stock Rom and flash as usual in custom recovery. If it's software a clean flash should do the trick. I'd be surprised if it wasn't hardware related though.

Nah, it was software. I did flash quite a few ROMs and it didn't help. I had the same issue on my Note 3 and a software update from Verizon fixed it. I'm just curious if they've fixed it for the G2 yet.

Yes, if you are stock, unrooted, take the update. If you are rooted, flash one of the new radios / modems for Verizon here:

I flashed the 12B version and everything has been perfect since.

I was leaning towards software bc I haven't experienced any of those screeching issues. If it was software one would think it would effect more ppl. Glad the update got you squared away.
I'm waiting for a rooted zip of the ota.

Got it on 12B, but only during a 4G to 3G switch, then dropped call. Coverage inn my house is spotty. Otherwise, sounds great.
Had it on my gnex and sounds the same on my g2. Definitely a Verizon thing.

I didn't notice anything of the sort on my Gnex or G2 on Verizon. Towers maybe?

Nexus 6p Gold Edition on Sprint Network (Incoming Call Issue)

Hey guys,
Quick question. Has any SPRINT user been successful in activating and using the nexus 6p gold edition? I purchase one and was able to activate it just fine. However, I am unable to receive calls. I have tried everything and also went to a sprint store and they can't seem to get it to work either. I have tried multiple SIM cards with same issue. I recently purchased a 64GB silver edition and it works just fine. So I am curious to see if anyone else has been able to get the GOLD edition to work properly?
Thank you
I do not have the issue nor do I have the gold model but I'd update Prl and reboot and see if it still does it. If so I'd try flashing factory image via fastboot.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Thank you for your help. I have updated the PRL with no success. Also, I have re-flashed the stock 6.0.1 Build MMB29Q with no luck.
I loaded CM13 and the phone actually seemed to operate a little better. I received calls at first but about 1 hour later i stopped receiving calls.
One thing I should add...If I put the phone in 3g mode (turning LTE off) while running the stock 6.0.1 rom I receive calls just fine. It is only when I am connected to LTE that I do not receive calls. I can make calls, browse the web, and send text just fine.

There were people on Nexus 6 who experienced this same exact thing a few months ago. That's the device I owned prior to 6p. I never had the issue but I recall some people over on the Sprint Nexus 6 thread talking about this same thing. I'd check there for sure.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Yeah.
It's very aggravating. I've tried everything I can think of. I purchased another nexus 6p silver which works fine but the screen has a terrible pinkish hue at the top right corner. The gold edition screen is almost perfect. I was hoping I could fix the gold edition.

Like the other guy stated I have the N6 which was on Sprint but immediately after switching to Fi and using the ROM that was initially just for Fi I have never had the problem again with the same phone. I am now using the latest ROM which is independent of carrier and still problem free.

Google Fi Mobile Data still on even though it is turned off.

Hey guys so I had this problem even on stock 6.0.1 right out the box. I then received updates thinking they would fix it, but didn't. I eventually wanted to flash pure nexus so I did that (not thinking it was going to be a fix) but I'm still getting it so it must be a google fi issue itself, right?
Has anybody been able to find a fix for this?

If you are connected to sprint then data is disabled. If connected to T-Mobile then data is enabled. Just figured this out today. Hope they will fix this issue.

Remove VOLTE/Advanced calling from your account. Flash the RUU. Factory reset using the stock recovery. Activate advanced calling from the phone itself (not the online verizon portal). Reboot phone after 5 minutes. Test.

So, go to website. Remove advanced calling and anything volte related. Then do phone and let phone reactivate everything? Just want to be clear. I respect your advice and have used your stuff on my phone for awhile.

So after using dottat ruu.exe for . 22 and seems like after it settled I have volte working again along with wifi calling. Never seen a toast before that I was on wifi calling. Also HD calling working. No notifications for HD buy can hear the difference when I call people who have edge 7 and iPhone 6. Still running complete stock setup and hoping will stay when I flash Venom. Doing a backup for sure first. Still no video calling.

Good deal.. I'm strongly believing that the VZW/HTC volte issues have finally been put to rest. This was a problem on the m9 as well and is no longer.

I've tried this 5 times with a couple different ruu's with no luck. I first noticed this happening after I tried flashing leedroid nougat Rom and got no service on it so I restored my backup and got service but no data on calls, just 1x. When I go to the vpn, in the list of bearers, mine just shows ehrpd and LTE. My gf pixel shows gprs, ehrpd, hsupa, hspap, hspa, hsdpa, LTE, umts, and edge. The rest of the vpn settings are the same. I have also noticed when I go into settings, about, network that it sometimes shows "3107" in the operator section. Any other ideas?

Keeps losing LTE data!

Nexus 6p on nougat 7.0 every once in a while the LTE symbol disappears and I have no data. Only fix is to reset phone! Tried toggling cellular data, and toggling airplane mode, sonar it's worked once to return data. Otherwise power cycle returns data. Anyone else experiencing this! Phone is refurbished but has been working great. Just trying to figure out if this is software or hardware related....thanks.

Did you do a Factory Reset after you updated? If you didn't I would recommend that if it persists.

The software itself yes, but carrier wise no.
T-Mobile has been having ongoing LTE issues for some time now in some areas. When I had my Note 5, had to constantly reboot to get LTE or any other data connectivity back.
I think it's only the T-Mobile and Project Fi (T-Mobile side) are having issues still.

Same here and when it happens, i use app lte on off app. Easy.
I have this same problem on TMO. If I try to use any radio higher than 2.50 (have tested all the way up to 3.75) my data will suddenly drop completely out of nowhere and not come back until I reboot. There seem to be certain areas near me that always make this happen when on those radios. I wonder if this is a regional issue or a hardware issue, doesn't seem to affect that many people.
I've also been dealing with issue. I'm almost certain it's an issue just with T-Mobile and maybe the phone communicating with towers. Went to d.c. not too long ago and didn't experience any issues but the same day I retuned to Pittsburgh the issue returned

This issue seems to be occurring to me as well. T-mobile is my carrier. It is really annoying since the only way out is to hard reboot the phone. You can't go into airplane mode and turn it off to get a signal like normal. Not quite sure what the issue is. It has happened on both stock and flashed roms. I have tried to see look at a logcat of the problem but it is a bit above my technical understanding.
I'm on the latest radio and bootloader and the problem is still occurring.
I think it happens when:
- Going away from wifi-coverage
- Going into area with poor cellular coverage
It's possible that being on 2G/3G may avoid the issue, but of course the speed sucks. I just tried going on 2G/3G and toggled wifi a few times. So far, mobile data is still ok. But the instant I enable LTE, mobile data is loss. Switching down to 2G/3G doesn't help. So another possible cause is:
- Switching from 2G/3G
My guess is that there is a bug with the LTE code on the phone that got introduced with a recent update.
Has been happening recently to me too as of last week. Random connection dropping for a few seconds. Usually, it will reconnect quickly and it'll show full signal, then it might die, or it might stay connected.
