Phone disconnects data when switching to LTE - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I unlocked my bootloader on my ZL, Im asking here because this forum is much more active then the ZL forum, then relocked it and transferred TA back again, and Im not sure if its me, or the phone, but ever since it seems as if when switching from HSPA to LTE data disconnects for a few seconds, then LTE will come on. Does anyone elses do this?
Thanks

My ZR actually goes completely off network for a second when i toggle LTE on and off. Not all the time but sometimes. The other times, it does disconnect data.

Yes, this is what mine does when connecting to LTE, I lose all bars and get a red X for a few seconds, then it comes back to LTE. So I guess this is normal?

Data problem need advice!

I'm 100% stock with the latest update! My One will get stuck with the 3g arrow up like it's uploading something...While this is happening I have no data connection. The only way to fix it is toggle airplane mode on/off and this only happens when my phone is on 3g.
Can this be a defective unit, App or maybe because sprint is working on NV all around me? I started receiving lte 2 weeks ago.
Btw this occurrs once every few days give or take

Ur not alone.......I've experienced this on several phones, including Samsung. Don't know what causes it, but the data toggle trick that you mentioned always works for me.
I haven't experienced this with any other phone except this 1 I will keep a close eye on it.

I've noticed it happens when there is work being done on your tower.

4g issues on Optus network

This is an ongoing gripe of mine. I'm wondering if it's just me or if other people have this problem. When I'm on 4g it intermittently turns off data for a few seconds. The 4g icon goes away and comes back a few seconds later interrupting my connection. Only happens on 4g. If I set the mobile network to just 2g or 3g I don't have this problem. I've tried lots of different modems. So I'm wondering if it's an Optus thing or an issue with my phone? ?

probably poor coverage of 4G network
Why 4G when 3G is enough for watching video etc etc?
And it drain more battery also

I'm literally right next to a big city. Its not a coverage thing. If I have a 4g phone why not use it. I get about 24 hours of battery life from it so that's not an issue

no more simultaneous voice + LTE with Kit Kat

I updated to the latest OTA and I now don't have simultaneous voice + LTE. I know that the new tri band phones with Sprint Spark lost this feature but I didn't think the OTA would break an existing feature. Anyone else experience this??
First off, wrong section. Secondly, there is no way for that to be possible. When I was using the Sense 5.5 ports, the LTE signal would disappear on call, but the devs confirmed it was still working. We never found out why it happened, but data & voice on LTE will always work hence why everyone SVDO was dropped.

I can confirm that when on LTE and you get a call the data indicator shows as if your data dropped but data still works. Just noticed it myself yesterday as a matter of fact.

I remember on the Evo 4g LTE, you could do 3G while using voice. I wish that feature still worked... I still don't have 4G

Exactly sir, thank you...
Data and voice at same times works fine on cm11.
I believe it worked for me on stock you just need to enable DDTM.
in dialler do ##3242#, edit, then enter your msl
I think its under evdo. Look for DDTM and set to enable.

The EVO LTE & S3 generation of phones were the only SVDO phones. S4 until now CAN'T do voice over 3g. You'll only get voice/data on WiFi and/or LTE!
I have noticed that since the update every-time I end a call I get the no data message and it takes 20-30 seconds for it to come back, rather annoying actually.

WiFi and LTE at the same time?

Does anyone have a issue while being on WiFi and the LTE is still being didplayed? My device does this is there a way to eliminate the LTE while being on WiFi?

This phone prefers LTE, I have a very week and unstable LTE at my house so it's constantly cutting in and out. When I'm at home or work I set the phone to CDMA only. Look under mobile data settings. My battery lasts WAY longer and don't have a problem with getting calls. There is zero benefit to being on LTE when you are using wifi. Since LTE at the moment is data only. Only annoying part is switching it back and forth. I wish there was a widget for it or could set tasker to do it automatically.

Yea
LTE is built in to the SoC so when activated, it doesn't turn off. Unlike previous phones who had an external LTE radio, the battery usage is minimal. So overall you are saving battery. and true if you have weak or no LTE signal turning it off will help.

SoC = System on a Chip so LTE, CPU, GPU, CDMA, 3G etc... Are all on 1 chip the Snapdragon 801. Older phones had separate components and used more power but the components could be turned off when not needed. When you are switching to CDMA only you are not just turning off LTE you are changing the core settings on the chip.

I most definitely agree. I have an Airave at home and I have to manually switch to CDMA only while at home for the phone to connect to it. I have a very weak LTE signal so the phone automatically tries to connect to it. Very frustrating. Called airave supprt who said they are aware of the problem and are trying to work on a solution, but for now just manually switch to CDMA only when I get home.
