Airave texts time 4 hours ahead - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Had issues when I got my ONE, straightened everything out months ago and it's been fine. Now I went away for 4 days, came back and now my texts are time stamped 4 hours ahead when I'm on my airave. I reset my modem, router, airave, phone. Updated prl and profile... Called sprint employee care and they supposedly reset it from their end. Still doing it, any ideas?

Lost of time stamp problems).2.5 had less problems with txt.

Call care if you're currently on an older airave they may need to replace it with the newest version.

Called airave support and got "I talked to my supervisor, and it's a known issue and there's nothing we can do"... Yeah that makes sense, works for a year, all of a sudden something happens, and it's a known issue with no solution. Hopefully it fixes itself. I have a 2.0 but read online that the 2.5s have just as many issues.

FINALLY got someone to call me back that knew what they were talking about. She updated my firmware while I was at work, when I got home, it seemed to work as normal.

No service?!?!

Hey folks, so this just happened today...
I'm getting the "x" over my service bars, then when I try to search available networks, t-mobile and at&t show up, I try to connect (register) with t-mobile and it says "Sim card does not allow a connection to this network." But last I checked, my sim card says T-Mobile on it!!!!
This happened from one minute to the next. Was talking on the phone, hung up, tried to make another call, and bam! no service. Tried rebooting a couple times, same thing. 4th time i rebooted, it worked! For a few minutes. Then it went back to the "x" and the same message about the sim when trying to connect manually.
By the way I have [ROM]TheOfficial DONUT TMO US/EU & AOSP-1.6_r1.4(dream/sapphire32B)[11/1/09]-v2.1.2, The TMO OTA DRC83 US.
It's rooted, as well.
Any ideas?
have you tried turning of 3g?
mine drops out on 3g and doesnt reconnect untill i turn it off.
but i am cm 4.2.3.1
sorry no ideas but the exact same thing happened to me! I'm on Cyans 4.2.3.1 and i just lost my network completely. i rebooted and nothing. so i tried to flash again, and nothing! now i'm stuck at the beginning where i have tap the android and blah blah blah i can't connect and it says i don't a network connection. this sucks balls. at least i know i'm not the only one
actually there is a global outage with T-Mobile’s voice service. They are aware of the problem and are trying to fix. They say it can take up to 24 hours to get the system back up.
A lot of people are having issues today. So dont worry guys, its NOT rom related...

S5 Messaging (Just not receiving some NOT ONLY IPHONE) FIX

Well to all you out there with a Verizon Galaxy S5 I hope you haven't been stuck with this issue. If you have well I might be able to help.
I have been searching for 4 days straight trying to find anything that might help....EVERYTHING I found was useless.
Description of problem:
I would have a conversation with someone and then all the sudden about 5 or so messages in I would not get a response. After thinking that the person or persons did not want to talk anymore I came to the conclusion later that the one I was messaging said I was the one who didn't respond. I did see on their phone that they replied. YET I DIDNT GET IT. This has gone on with people for 2 weeks in my case. THIS IS NOT TALKING ABOUT THE IPHONE MESSAGING PROBLEM.
This I tried but a NO-GO:
1. Factory Reset.
2. Rooting/Putting Custom Recovery On
3. Using the Recovery to Wipe Cache/Fix Permissions
4. Accidentally Bricked My S5......Used Odin to ReFlash 4.4.2 Stock.
5. Started from the ground up. Back to out of the store condition. NO WARRENTY VOID
6. Went to the store I got it from (Cellular Sales Authorized Verizon Retailer)....They knew less than I did. (Hire me PLZ)
IN THE END:
Nothing made sense....Everything had been tampered with and no change what-so-ever.....It has to be Communication from the towers to the phone.
Here is the FIX that so far has worked. Only been a couple hours of testing:
I called VZW Tech Support. First Tier didn't know. Transferred up the ladder....Second Tier did some testing and told me this....He needed to reset the connection the towers had with the SIM Card. To let him do that and then turn my phone off, take the SIM Card out and leave it out for 2 Min. When he did, I was able to text 3 of the people that I was able to message...but had a few not received, and they all went through. Only way to truly know is at the end of the day after more messages.
So don't go crazy and try everything like I did. See if the Tech Support can reconnect the SIM Card for you. :good: :highfive:

Lost mobile data with an exclamation mark, I can still make calls.

Edit: added details.
I have had my Nexus 6 for 3 days and first installed my Straight Talk SIM yesterday. Everything worked fine for less than a day then I started getting MMS picture messages failing. Now I get no mobile data. I swapped my SIM with my wifes, also on straight talk and mine with hers and I get the same issue and mine works fine in her phone.
I have rebooted many times, I have checked my APN settings and even have tried alternatives.
I have done a few searches and see other have this or very similar issues but I have not found anything that fixes my issue.
I am running Pure Nexus with the stock kernel.

Need few more details. Who is your carrier? What ROM is on working phone?
I would clean flash latest factory image and see if that helps.

Straight Talk.
Pure Nexus ROM
I did a back up and tried flashing another ROM last night, CyanogenMod but I did something wrong and I ended up flashing Pure Nexus again and it restored everything from my backup (still learning I guess). But it is working fine, now that is, it was working fine before. The only thing that I thought may have caused an issues was I had Macrodroid setup to disable wifi radio when out of my homes cell tower's range. I used this all the time with my old phone and it helped a lot to save battery. But it didn't seem to work for some reason. So I turned Macrodroid off and it did help with my data issues then I even uninstalled it completely.
So bottom line, it's working now, but like I said in my original post, it was working for about 24 hours then I started having issues.

I think all know this detail by now. The APN however is unique straight talk even though it is technically AT&T or (T-mobile)
I can't believe this is still an issue, totally unacceptable IMO
I've had this twice today. 100% stock, no root. Latest T-Mobile 5.1.1 with T-Mobile service. I'll take my phone out of my pocket and have a "!" next to the signal bar.
This even happens when in use. I had Spotify streaming music in my car when it cut out. When I got home, I checked the phone and again, "!" next to the signal bar.
I just did a clean flash and factory reset yesterday and set the phone up as a new device (no apps auto downloaded from previous setup) and I'm still getting this error whenever I leave the phone to sleep too long.
Same here !
Bought a N6 as my first Google phone, I thought I'd get the benefits of an always up to date phone, but instead I have to deal with that kind of issue
Hopefully that's a software issue and Google will provide us with a fix quickly... that's why I bought a Nexus !
(Orange 4G - France)
I had the same thing happen to me today. I left my phone in the car to go to a meeting, went to check it had no signal. Just turned on airplane mode for a few seconds then off, everything came back. I'm using the phone on ATT GoPhone network. I'm also using the nextgenphone apn instead of the phone apn. Maybe that's causing it.

Nexus 6 LTE connecting issues... strange!

My rooted Nexus 6 and my sons stock Nexus 6 are having a lot of trouble connecting to LTE on Tmobile. I have to go to APNs, reset to default and reboot every hour or so. I did no changes to my phone.
Apparently, this is happening on other networks too.
Can anyone shed light on this? Some back door google update.
tMobile says no changes on their end. Also, other carriers are having this issue, ONLY Nexus 6.
PS - apparently , this has happened before too

flash a different radio/modem.
Same here. Just spoke to T-MOBILE and rep said it is an issue with a lot Nexus 6 users. They kicked me off the network and it work for a bit but I'm still losing data. She said their tech department is working with Google for a fix.
Fyi...Flash 3 other radio's and it doesn't make a difference.
Edit: change all to a lot

I got the same answer.
I did flash the 5.32 and 5.34 modems. No dice.
Then I tried Developer preview 5.39. It's been working for 15 minutes, which is a long time since the issue cropped up.
What a pain!
Not sure if my issue is the same, but for the last couple days Textra fails to send a text unless I reboot. Even a reply to a just received text fails. I have tried a couple different radios but neither has helped. I am also on a T-Mobile Nexus 6 stock rooted with the August 6.0.1 security update.

That is probably the same issue. I can receive texts, but can't send without a reboot.
So far.. the 5.39 developer modem has kept connection for an hour. Which is good considering how intermittent it was.
What really blows is that my phone and service was perfect until this event.
Even in the mountains of the Philippines last year, my phone worked perfect.
You may try dp5 my WiFi and Mobil got a lot better, but I'm not on t mobil. Flashing only the radio is maybe not enough, if you are on stock anyway you have nothing to loose
Check out Reddit for the growing thread on this issue. Happening with Nexus 6 users on different carriers around the world. Some GPS connected apps like Pokemon Go & Lyft will bork LTE connectivity. Probably a Google play services issue. Will be using my OnePlus one today just in case.

Interesting.. I hit the speedtest app right after a reboot to check, and it immediately borked my connection several times in a row. I like your theory..

You guys have a lot of company... > http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/08/04/some-nexus-6-owners-report-data-outages-on-t-mobile/
I'm running stock N6, not rooted; bootloader locked; on T-Mo. While on WiFi, with WiFi calling enabled, I would get out of range of WiFi and cel data would not return without full reboot. If I disable WiFi calling before leaving WiFi service, cel data flipped as normal. I tested again with manual WiFi disable and if WiFi calling was on before the cut out, cel data never flipped on.
[Edit] I did notice though that when it does flip like it's supposed to, I'm connected at 3G. LTE doesn't kick on.

Stated what T-Mobile told me.
Ok, I did flash the beta radio 5.39.
It might be coincidence, but my phone has a solid connection for three hours now.
Hopefully they fixed it on their end.
I am not seeing this on my N6. Still on 5.1.1 LVY48H.

what radio can work on 5.1
Cause i have flyme rom, but have calls issue, ian not receiving any call. The other end saids it rings but my phone does not ring at all on calls.
It seems to be affecting some people, but not others. It also doesn't seem to be related to ROM, carrier, kernel, or radio versions. There are people all over the world on different carriers having the problem.
The symptoms I see are that I can't connect to any type of cellular data. Voice and SMS seem to work though. WiFi data works fine. GPS use seems to make it more likely to fail. Speedtest.net, Pokemon Go, Ingress, and Google Maps have been used to reproduce it.
The only thing I've found that seems to help is to freeze "Google Connectivity Services" using Titanium Backup. You might also try uninstalling updates, though it will just re-install. If it is related to that, it would make sense as the rollout of updates via Play Store are staged, so people would get the update at different times. I froze it about 4 hours ago and data has been solid with GPS use, LTE and HSPA tested. I also tested switching between WiFi and Cellular without issues on Tmobile-US. That's the only SIM I have, so I can't test other services. I couldn't seem to get a data connection for more than a few minutes before, so it's a huge improvement in my case.

T-Mobile acknowledges the issue. The one universal is that it's with the N6, not with other phones. There are a bunch of carriers around the world that are having the problem.
When mine breaks, SMS fails. The only mobile connectivity available to me is phone calls.
The Reddit thread mentioned above has people saying that disabling Location Services works. Far from ideal over time, but if it's true, it's something. I tried that. We'll see how it goes. Freezing Google Connectivity Services is nice, if it works without introducing other problems, because it would allow us to keep using whatever connectivity we like without data breaking.
I had a Bluetooth connectivity problem a year or more ago that surfaced literally out of nowhere and on every device I tested, a little more than ten of them. This was independent of ROM, root status, device, anything. The feature in question worked on every Android device we had tried one day (and for more than a year prior) and failed on every one the next. Sounds crazy, but it's what happened. Google barely paid attention to my bug reports and ran me in circles when they did. Never got fixed.
I trust this matter will.
Both my nexus6s are doing this with heavy GPS aps, data will shut down.

I've had GCS frozen for a long time, running 5.39 radio & it happened to me. There is definitely something occurring substantially with our devices/network be it software or hardware based. Apparently T-Mobile & Google are working on it but the fix might not come until next week. I'll probably install latest N preview when I get home.

Weird issue with no data while making phone calls

Hell of a story, I apologize in advance for the length, but maybe it'll be intriguing to some of you. Pure Nexus rom as of i think april 23rd?
I have a Nexus 6 that I bought 2 years ago in April on Verizon (purchased from verizon). My contract ran out April 27th, went to AT&T with my girlfriend because I was going to get on her plan to save money on our phone bills. Ported over the number to my N6 fine. But I noticed I only got an H+ symbol, no LTE. I asked the guy if that was normal, he said yes. I got data and could make calls so I figured it was fine. Did some speed tests, 2 mb/down at best. My GF was getting 15-20 in the same spot on her Galaxy S7.
Long part of this story short, the tech they put me on the phone with said it was due to it being a Verizon variant and was not capable of full LTE speeds on AT&T. I went to the Verizon store and asked if they could put me back under Verizon after explaining the problem. He said sure, and then worked up pricing to have my GF switch to Verizon with me instead, and to get a Pixel XL.
So far so good, they had to do a temporary number for me because there's issues porting a number twice in a 24 hour span, but they cleared it up, got my real number ported, happy camper, good speeds. Except this one issue.
Now when I'm on the phone (actual phone call), my data drops. The LTE signal actually disappears, and nothing displays except signal bars. As soon as the phone call is over, it comes back. I never had the problem before this whole back and forth mess. I can't seem to figure out any options to make it not do this. I was thinking about reflashing my rom in case that would help, maybe something got messed up in the switch back and forth to GSM and then back to CDMA?

I'm already unlocked, rooted, TWRP'd and using the PureNexus that came out end of april (I haven't flashed the one in may yet). I believe I'm also currently using the latest radio and latest bootloader.
Edit - I actually was not on the most recent radio, but I did flash that, no change.
The volte provisioned flag turned on in the testing menu? I have a setting for enhanced 4g lte mode in my settings, wireless networks/more/cellular networks settings. Did they remove the advanced calling from your account? Just throwing some things out there.

The tech may not be wrong as Verizon uses band 13 as their main LTE band and ATT uses band 17

My GF was getting 15-20 in the same spot on her Galaxy S7.
Long part of this story short, the tech they put me on the phone with said it was due to it being a Verizon variant and was not capable of full LTE speeds on AT&T. I went to the Verizon store and asked if they could put me back under Verizon after explaining the problem. He said sure, and then worked up pricing to have my GF switch to Verizon with me instead, and to get a Pixel XL.
So far so good, they had to do a temporary number for me because there's issues porting a number twice in a 24 hour span, but they cleared it up, got my real number ported, happy camper, good speeds. Except this one issue.
Now when I'm on the phone (actual phone call), my data drops. The LTE signal actually disappears, and nothing displays except signal bars. As soon as the phone call is over, it comes back. I never had the problem before this whole back and forth mess. I can't seem to figure out any options to make it not do this. I was thinking about reflashing my rom in case that would help, maybe something got messed up in the switch back and forth to GSM and then back to CDMA?

In others countries we don't get the same bands management, then I can't say anything about LTE.
But I'm on PureNexus 7.1.1 and I get the same "issue" about network droppin when calling. When the call starts, my phone turns into don't disturb-mode and recover the network only when the phone call ends.. It doesn't really cut my network connection, but it looks like. It may be rom settings.
However I don't care as long as everything works good, it's just an icon. (how a phone call can be done while network is shutted off ^^)
When I was on the stock ROM, this autumn, 7.1 version of Android did the same thing, loosing data connection while being still connected to the network (but at anytime not just phonecalls). Finding it back some minutes later. That was fixed with 7.1.1. Stock.
Hope that might help you (looks not ) if it's the same problem. May be give an eye to the Rom settings..
Have you tried if your device do the same thing with an another Rom ? (stock for example)

The volte provisioned flag turned on in the testing menu? I have a setting for enhanced 4g lte mode in my settings, wireless networks/more/cellular networks settings. Did they remove the advanced calling from your account? Just throwing some things out there.

I knew something looked like it was missing. I don't have any enhanced 4g LTE settings in that section. Normally there's a tick box to turn it on there. It's missing. Is that due to them not having it turned on in my account?
Also for everyone else, this problem only started when I tried the whole at&t switch. I was on this rom when I switched and it worked fine before then. I didn't factory reset since then though, wondering if I need to try that.

The tech may not be wrong as Verizon uses band 13 as their main LTE band and ATT uses band 17

The tech is definitely wrong; since it's a Nexus 6 (presumably XT1103) it has all the possible LTE bands used in the US. There should not have been any issue when switching. I had something similar happen to me, when I just switched to verizon and did the "reset network settings" button, it screwed up my phone so I couldn't use LTE period, I had to reflash the modem in order to fix it. I know you already said you reflashed the modem, but I'm not sure what to suggest. There is absolutely nothing physically wrong or incapable about your phone, just some config got screwed up somewhere along the way. I'd just try to flash as many things as you're comfortable with without losing your userdata. Like modem, bootloader, etc. until your data comes back. If nothing else, press the network settings reset button and flash the latest modem. Make sure your twrp is up to date as well.

I think i'm going to reflash my rom today. I did the modem, twrp is up to date, bootloader is fine. I did the reset network settings (I was sure that was going to fix it, no dice). So I'm going to reflash the rom today and see if that fixes it. After that I have no idea what is left to try other than reverting to stock, which I'd like to avoid.
Yes, it is a feature that needs to be added to your account. Go online and check their website or go into the hidden menu and activate it. If it sticks, it's on your account.
I tried the wifi and video calling flags and they didn't stick. Go figure... C'MON big red...

How do you enter the hidden menu on the n6? I thought I found it but it wasn't working.
.#.#4636#.#. select the phone info tab. In there, there will be either a drop down menu or buttons to tick and they'll change color

I got in, VoLTE was not ticked. I ticked it. I got the setting for it then in settings. But making a phone call gave me an error. I rebooted, and it's not ticked now. So does that mean I need to call Verizon to have them flag my account?
You need to add it in your account then. Easy enough to do online. You want to, "manage features."

That did the trick. All fixed. Thank you! That was driving me nuts. I never considered the idea that the setting would be turned off . But since I did leave and come back...
Thanks again!
Glad you're all set. ?
