Lately using Android 10 I have been having DATA signal problems. It just turns off...waits a few seconds and restarts. Speeds are VERY slow even when i see a 46+ icon. 4mb/s max.
Google voice calls simply do not work most of the time.
I am on Verizon with VOLTE enabled.
Any ideas?

Hi everyone,
I'm on a fringe coverage area with AT&T. I have a pretty new sim card, but I noticed that I get a lot of dropped calls while on 3G (or H). I usually get 1-2 bars on 3G. Shouldn't the call I'm on, hand-off to Edge if the signal is not strong enough on 3G? Right now, its dropping the call altogether on 3G with no fallback to Edge. Is the Xperia's radio to blame for this?
Thanks!
i dont know who is to blame but if your on the fringe as you say, you should just manually set your device to use edge/gsm.
it will save on your battery and have less dropped calls. otherwise, you phone will keep bouncing between signals.
i also have the same problem and i am curious of the answer i dont want to lose 3g all together but i have 1 bar in my house and drop calls also.
Has anyone on AT&T tried to flash their xperia with the Raphael radio? Is the signal alot better?
not just exactly the same problem here, but similar (according to the network). at home, i have no 3g coverage and manage to get edge at best, problem is intermitantly my voice stops, even though i can here the other caller perfectly, the phone still keeps between 2-3 bars of signal, and i can even stay on the call over 30 seconds after it happens. the other caller can just hear like a dead noise. the network has me testing the 3g thing for the next couple of days though.
PS. this also happened with a K850i and a K800i
Here is some strangeness that I'd like to investigate.
When I'm on a voice call, data usage is strangely inhibited even when on Wifi. The market will report network errors, and when it does download an app, it will never install the app while on the call. Other apps that use data are either non-responsive or extremely slow. For example, the Engadget app will display text, but not images. As soon as the call is ended, all returns to normal. Again, this is not over 3g/4g, but Wifi enabled and active.
As an additional datapoint, over the same Wifi network, my laptop gets 12.63Mb/s down and 1.36Mb/s up while my Atrix gets 2.4Mb/s down and 1.4 Mb/s up.
Is anyone else having reduced and/or null data traffic while on voice, even on Wifi?
speedtest seems fine for me on WiFi. Not quite the max bandwidth.... my connection is 15Mbit down and it comes in around 9... but not bad either way. Upload bandwidth seems right about where it should be on WiFi.
As for the data use while on call.... i dunno. Never used it when i used my iPhone that i can remember.... and haven't had my Atrix long enough to even think of doing so, so i wouldn't know about that one.
Well I haven't tested data use while on a call, but as for the wifi data speeds...I've never once used a phone that received as fast a wifi signal as this one. My home modem usually connects at around 15.5Mbps. My phone speedtests on WiFi at 13-15Mbps. That's *amazing* for a phone.
Hello.
So my T-Mobile Note 3 is acting up. The problem is, when WiFi is connected, the cell signal indicator drops to zero, or almost zero. It is more noticeable when I am at home. Not as much as the office. And the impact is, that calls do not come through, and when they do, they sound like a horrible T-Pain autotune song. To make a call, I typically have to disable WiFi, wait for about a minute for better signal. Signal always gets better when WiFi is disabled.
I am on a stock T-Mobile ROM, rooted. WiFi calling enabled but not active.
Any suggestions?
I have a lag that takes 3~5 seconds for data to connect.
I am using PTEL, which rides on T-Mobile network.
The symptom is that, when I am Tmobile 3G/HSPA and trying to connect to internet from cold, I have to wait 3~5 seconds.
When the phone is idle, the icon stays "H". When I am trying to pull data, it takes a moment to change to "H+" and starts to pull data.
For example, when I open an article, I have to wait 3 seconds to connect to H+.
After finish reading it and try to load another article, I have to wait again to connect to H+.
My friend has Verizon LTE and when I use her phone, I am amazed how quickly I can browse through just like when I am on my computer with strong WIFI.
This is annoying and makes the battery drain.
On wifi, Nexus 4 can idle for hours and only lose 1% per hour.
But when it is on 3g, even when it is idling, it loses 10% per hour.
I think this 3g/HSPA lag causes the phone to be awake longer then needed to sync data.
I notice this because, sometimes the phone hangs forever waiting for data pull.
In that case I had to exit out of an app and go to chrome and try to access any website.
That helps other apps connecting to internet.
It seems that when I search about this connection lag, most of them have T-mobile.
I am wondering if anyone had similar issue and found a solution for this?
Is this also happening for folks who have Tmo LTE?
By the way, I am using Nexus5Experience rom and have left network configuration default.
I have apn that PTEL recommends which is "wholesale".
I tried "fast.t-mobile.com" and "epc.tmobile.com" and both have worst result than "wholesale" apn.
Thanks,
I don't know if this is an issue with my device, but VoLTE doesn't work if the phone loses connection for a few minutes(15-20). I tried flipping the flag and once the connection did reset and VoLTE started working again. Tried re-flashing the radio and nothing worked till now.
I live in a garbage reception area so turn off enhanced 4g LTE and have better call quality as it doesn't try to do HD voice.
But, to you're question, you mean after you resume a data connection that VOLTE takes a while to start working?

The VoLTE doesn't work no matter how long I get back the service. I have to manually reset network settings to reboot for it to work. Do you know where I can file a bug for this?
