T-mobile and updated to B29 - Problems? - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

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.

Same here.

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

That's what I thought of first too, but no matter what I choose for deep sleep, timed wakeup and auto start, it doesn't change the behavior I'm seeing.

[Q] Low call quality and network disconnections

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.

Something is going on with Verizon Wireless

It started with Nougat update but it is also showing up before update (6.0.1) I updated to Nougat and phone would constantly revert back to Verizon Airwaves default ringtone plus wifi calling wasn't working. They agreed and shipped me out a refurbished phone which was still on 6.0.1. This phone (still on 6.0.1 not updated) will not keep the ringtone or notification sound I set, keeps going back to Verizon tones!!? Any suggestions?
Weird. I haven't experienced that at all. Maybe a new SIMM card is needed?
Not Sim Card

Are you positive? What have you done to ensure it isn't your SIMM card? You can go to the Verizon dealer and get a new SIMM card for free. Otherwise, I can't imagine what else might be causing the issue? Whenever a phone has exhibited strange behavior, and it happens with a replacement phone as well, I've swapped out the SIMM card and it fixed the issue, unless you already tried this. If you have, maybe it's something with your Verizon account? Not sure if there is some setting with say, the VZW cloud that it's restoring some weird settings? I'm reaching here because I've never heard of this type of issue before and it's baffling, but I'd like to know how it eventually gets solved.
I'm out of ideas. Hopefully someone else can give some other suggestions. I'm very curious to know if you get the issue fixed or not.
Good luck!
I am beginning to think an app I have called Sound Profile is the culprit. Always worked in the past. I went through and disabled each app one at a time for test. BUT I discovered that Sound Profile will startup after each boot regardless of the fact I disabled it in App Settings. Once I found this out I uninstalled and have been checking and rebooting for several hours now with no problems. I loved this app and hope to use it again. I'll keep updating thread.

No Call Notification

Haven't had a lot of luck with questions here for the last little while, but maybe someone has an idea as to why this would happen. My wife tried to call me 6 times yesterday. Not a single call came through or registered on my S7 Edge. She said all calls immediately went through to voice mail. When she got home, she stood right beside me and tried again and again, I was not notified of the call and it went right through to voice mail.
The phone had recently been rebooted. DND was not on. All sounds were on. The phone is not rooted and no apps like Greenify or anything like that running. After her last unsuccessful call to me, standing right beside me, I called her and it went through without an issue. She then tried to call me back and it worked. A minute or so later I received notification of her 2 voice mail messages from her previous calls. It's like the phone was in an extreme deep sleep. Which is pretty annoying considering I use the phone as a phone and I need calls to come through when they are made.
I took the phone into my carrier and they gave me a new sim card to try. I didn't have any issues with the previous sim card other than the issue from time to time of the first call I place being dropped and then the second call going through without issue. The signal is not fantastic in our condo, but I've never had someone tell me they have tried to call me and simply gone to vm before, so I don't know of any time of this happening previously. My wife had never had problems calling me before at all.
Anyone know what might have caused this?
No answers to this post,. Guess no one knows. Just another bizarre Samsung issue. Had it happen again today. My wife had to send me a Whatsapp message saying she couldn't call me. She said she called over and over again. No voice mail, no nothing. Never rang on my end or registered a call at all. Phone just didn't work until I called her and then she called me back and it worked. So sick of this thing working when it feels like it. Checked signal Not great, but no better than her signal and she never has any issues. She said she would call, it would just drop. No ringing, no voice mail, no nothing. Just call and then drop sound. Over and over again. Good thing this phone is only a $1000 device. Works great.
I don't have a solution for your problem, but had a similar issue when phoning my wife. It would ring on my side, but not on her side, then goes to voicemail. 2nd or 3rd time the call would go through to her to answer. Her phone wouldn't show any of the other calls. She was with a specific service provider and I moved her over to my provider. That is when the problems started as she was ported over to my provider. In the end it was on the provider's side where the problem was. They made some changes on her number profile and she could receive all calls and not random ones. Don't know the technical side of what the provider did, but they did admit they created her "call profile" incorrectly. Perhaps it's the same with you, that there is a setup on your profile that is not correct.
Thanks for the post, but I have contacted my provider. We use the same provider. Same settings. They reset everything for my phone and I reset everything on my end too. Still no solution. She does not have the same issues. Same phone. Same provider. Just sucks when you don't know if someone is trying to call you or not and if the phone actually works or not. I just want a phone that works all the time without having to worry about it. At the end of the day, that's all this is....a phone. If people can't call, well, that's an issue. I'm currently looking for work so it's even more important now than it's ever been.
Sorry to hear that you went the route of the provider and still no resolution. Maybe someone else can give light on the subject...

OK...What does that have to do with this thread that I created about my issue? I feel drunk...I think I need another drink. WTF?
What do you want? I had the ****ing same issue..solved it and deleted my message..
Try to flash some stock firm with Odin.. solved the very same issue for me!!!
So why did you delete the message then?

Phone call problem

Anyone else find that every once in a while you'll call someone and won't be able to hear anything and they won't hear you until you call them back? Happens when I call out from time to time. Very frustrating.
Tried wiping dialer data. Also tried reinstalling app updates from the play store, no change.

I'm actually on ATT, which means it's probably not carrier related. Wonder if anyone knows of any alternate dialers that would work? Could see if it's app related or driver related.
I've done this but found my phone was on mute. Next time it happens check to see if that's the case. I think maybe it is easy to hit with your face?
I had the same issue but it would work with some numbers and not with others. I found a setting under the caller that was turned on for hearing aid support. Once I turned that off, it seems that my issues have gone away.
10 hours into the phone (got mine this AM) and I like the device but still not a fan of the camera, even with the Google camera port. Some things essentially (intentional) seem half baked or not thought completely through.
I just downloaded the MS Launcher and I have to say, I like it a lot. I'm considering keeping that the stock launcher.b
Same issue, my face it's the mute button all the time.
Happened twice in a day, I had to reset everything and still same if I restore all apps from back and/or if I connect my phone to car bluetooth --> safe unlock.

Bad reception - Delayed text messages - Rooted phone the cause?

Hello!
I have trouble with my One plus 6 t receiving text messages. I receive them a day late, all coming through at the same time in a bulk of messages the next day. I changed my sim card so T mobile doesn't seem to be the cause of it. Are these problems because I rooted my phone? If so what is the solution? Thank you!
My 6T is also rooted and at one point I has service issues (on Verizon) I tried all my mods one at a time till I figured out witch mod caused it and I was shocked to find out it was my substratum themes messing with something. Once removed all was grand. Hope this help. Go one by one through any mods in place disabling them see if it helps.

The problem is that I have a lot of apps...Did you disable them one by one? And also I realise that I receive the delayed messages 1 day after so it's not easy to check. So the problem comes from the fact that my phone is rooted? Also when I use the camera my phone closes sometimes, like 30 sec after...Very weird. Does all this come from the rooting? Never heard of this problem before.
Yes I did dilisabled one at a time and rebooted after each one. And for text delay who is your carrier I'm on Verizon and mine was delayed for a hour or so till I figured it out I'd quick text my self hi from my own number and hit home to close the messages app out so I could time the reply time.
This helped me also.

Try turning off battery Optimization See if that helps, Could be just a delay with your signal... Had that happen before, I had full signal but everything was delayed.
I have similar issue to receive delayed messages after the latest Open Beta 12. Stock message app on unrooted 6T.

Hello,
So the problem comes from the fact my phone is rooted? Yesterday it was impossible to take a video correctly for example my phone was shutting of every 30 seconds, and the mobile phone network bar disappeared, then came back and so on, like if I was losing the network every 30 seconds. I'll try to do a video of this

This is not normal. I've been rooted for months and do not have these problems. There is something else wrong
Just being rooted wouldn't be the issue. Sometimes it's honestly as simple as resetting your network settings. As for camera issues have you modified your camera in any way, possibly added a magisk module or something that isn't compatible with our phones, outdated modules can sometimes cause issues as well. It's hard to pinpoint but rooting isn't the issue as these phones were designed for rooting. It's something else entirely. You said your on T-Mobile, was it branded T-Mobile? They like to put their own bloated apps on phones that could probably cause issues too. This is why I went straight to the actual company. You get more up to date and their warranties better than tmobiles. Without knowing what's on your phone I can just speculate. But no just rooting and unlocking bootloader isn't causing this issue

I bought it from One plus directly, not T mobile. I resetted the network settings a lot of times and it still does the same thing. I noticed it happens more when several applications are opened, like when I watch a youtube video and do something at the same time. But even after closing youtube app and all my other apps, it does the same thing. On magisk I have: Busybox for Android, Energized protection, Google product sans, IOS 12.1 emoji, systemless hosts, viper4android, youtubevanced.
I've noticed that being on WiFi causes phone network issues (e.g., phone calls going straight to voicemail, text messages being delayed). This is with WiFi calling disabled, and a non-rooted phone. Really not sure what's going on here, especially because when it happens, my network signal is just fine. But if I disable WiFi, the delayed texts come in immediately. Super annoying.
This is on T-Mobile, latest beta (I think version 11).

It's in an overly annoying menu to find lol. Settings -> Wi-Fi and Internet -> SIM & Network -> SIM 1 (T-Mobile (for me)) -> then under Enhanced Communication you'll see "Wi-Fi Calling"
