Ah, going to check out. I'm starting to think all my issues are network related due to weak signals. I feel like band 12 is going to some allot of issues

Nothing in my area yet. I hope soon. If band 12 doesn't make things better I might be looking to jump ship. My wife has service everywhere I don't on att. LTE service.... What's the point of the fastest LTE if you can't access it.

Tmo service in my area is great with exception of my fortress like office close by and living room of my place. Hoping 700mhz fills in the gaps

Same here. Work and my house are two places I spend the most time. My work is a fortress with 20 I beams supporting the roof. I do get solid edge service though so I'm hoping it's one of the sites replaced with band 12

4G down in So. Calif?

Any body else here in California experiencing this? My phone has been reduced to 3g and sometimes 1x all day today.

Yes, still on 1x...
Hmmm didn't get hit with this one.
GINGERVOLTED!
Ive been having issues over the past few days in St. Louis MO... Kind of disappointing.
Ok so anyone want to take a gander and speculate as to the reasons?
I'll start... Over usage from more than expected speed junkies using mobile torrents on their phones, practically causing the system to get DOS'd. <shrug>

Seriously doubt that it's caused by torrents. Otherwise, companies like Comcast would be down all the time for that exact reason. Plus, mobile torrent apps don't usually allow much speed. Best I was ever able to get when I did 'try' one out, was about 500K/s, whereas my phone is capable of speeds closer to 5MBs/s (40-42Mbps)...
I think it has more to do with system overload and lack of qualified IT Staff to create redundancy within the network. Every time a new major phone comes out, these problems arise. It happened with the iPhone release, and now with the Nexus release. Also, Christmas is a heavy time period for new accounts and phone activations. So, I would put my weight to that more than actual data usage by torrents, etc...

Yeah, this is fantastic...We will see great thing in terms of business moves from Sprint, will definitely allow them to push out more green to upgrade infrastructure.
While it's good for Sprint customers, I do regret that the profits from my monthly payment will be sent to a Japanese company.

My main concern is will they be bumping up the monthly prices? Or maybe even remove the unlimited data plan. I really hope they don't change anything.
Well Im just happy they are rolling out the 800mhz spectrum in my area when I talked to support.

Although we'll only ever be indirect beneficiaries of it, I also hope the capital helps them refarm the 800MHz spectrum from their IDEN network-- and of more interest to us, that they're able to repurpose those towers to also broadcast our particular flavor of LTE.
I am on the Verizon network. I hope that Sprint does something cool. Like roll out new LTE and new towers for a broader coverage and some how keep their current price structure and unlimited data plan. This would help to show these other two idiotic greedy companies that profits and good business can truly be done at the same time. Then maybe their pricing structures will be lowered and their data limits be raised. But, I doubt that. These are greedy idiots we are talking about here. And truthfully, I would not put it past Sprint to go in the same direction as the other two companies.

As long as I'm grandfathered into what's going to be the best network in America, I'm cool. I also have no problems paying full price for my phones since I already do that too. Next 2 years should be fun.

I don't think so. A big part of what's keeping Sprint alive now is the truly unlimited data.
The Thanks button is just to avoid "THANKS" posts in threads. Nothing more. Don't defeat the purpose of why it was introduced.
I got sprint 4G LTE faster in my town than both at&t and Verizon ever did...plus I've noticed much...much better signal quality..looks like sprint really is trying here

Ya, if I recall correctly SoftBank took a failing wireless company overseas and lowered their prices, increased their network capacity and speeds and turned them into the #2 carrier for their region. I think we can expect similar if not identical plans to now but with a far better network.
I read thread title and thought OH cool, Sprint HTCONE 4.2.2 is here. Not the case :crying:

If 4.2.2 came out the thread name would have been "OMGITSHEREGUYSOMGOMGOMG" or something like that. But I hope we get updates faster in the future because of the changes being made.

True, we've had a global economy for centuries, although not quite to its current extent. But one only has to look at history to see the negative effects of profits going away from where they are created. For example, in the 1800's, the US north bought raw materials from the south and made items to sell. Even to this day, the wealth in this country is concentrated in the northeast. Similarly, I think many of the issues Africa and South America have are due to the wealth created from their natural resources being sent overseas or being concentrated into the hands of a few. I'm not saying that Softbank owning Sprint will cause the US to become a slum and I look forward to seeing what will happen, but it is a little sad nonetheless.

Rumor has it AT&T's not going to pick it up, so we'll have to see if Sony sells it like they did the ZL on their site. If it goes to (only) Tmobile that could really screw it up for AT&T users like it did the XZ I imagine. Since Tmobile's coverage is getting better and their HSPA+ speeds supposedly blow away AT&T I might be switching.......

I think sonystyle is only gonna sell the HSPA+ version, since it's rumored that Tmo is gonna have an exclusive on the LTE version.
Just like the Xperia Z, smh
It could be time for at&t to pick up Z1 because tmo already has Z like GS4 Active is at&t exclusively.

Seems most likely this time, both ZU and Z1's NA variant will be available in Oct.
As I know, C6906 could be confimed with Bell Mobility(LTE) and Rogers(LTE) in CANADA.
No information about the device for US currently
They said its and ocataband LTE phone and that it will work with all current LTE carriers..? At least that is what Clove says. Soo, were not fully confirmed it will have AT&T LTE..?

I wish that was the case, but the one on Clove lists the bands as:
4G Yes
Frequencies Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 20
It is octaband, but we need another band for AT&T. Oh the irony!
Unfortunately for AT&T, we need Band 17.

[Q] Radio/4GLTE problems T-Mobile

So lately, for awhile now I've been having major issues with my 4G LTE. My speeds on LTE when I check on speedtest would go as far as 1.00 MBps (Not kidding) and im forced to disable 4LTE and leave it to 3G or HSPA+. When I enable H I get speeds up to 10.00 mbps. Now I've done many things to try to fix it, researched and tried flashing the only radios I can find which are on here labeled "[Ref] [Radio] Nexus 6 modem collection" I currently have LMY47M Firmware and radio flashed and still H seems to work better. I'm on stock 5.1 update. I even tried speaking to T-Mobile to have my signal reset and they even got as far to transferring me to a specialist and even had the specialist send a note to the engineers to see if its the towers in my area or something. And that if it was the case that on Saturday I should see my LTE back up and working. Saturday passed and unfortunately still going through this. It's crazy because my brother ,mother and sister in-law have T-Mobile and their 4GLTE are working beautifully. So I was hoping if I can have any helping hands to help me fix this or find a solution, a radio or something for me. Please, I'm dying lol..
Any links, tutorials, personal apn settings, tricks or editing build.prop info will be SUPER MUCH appreciated.
Thanks again.

Curious, what were your brother, sister in-law, etc.. speed test scores? Home for me is in a fringe LTE area and depending on where I am in my house, hspa is almost always faster than LTE. Example: at home hspa+ is 12 down 2-3 up. LTE is 2-3 down 0.5-1 up. Drive half mile down street and LTE is 70 down 15 up....
One thing of note my wife has a new S6 and her radios stay on LTE 24/7 at our house where mine switches constantly from hspa to LTE. Her speed tests at home are 15-20 down 5 up.
Are you in a "fringe" LTE coverage area?

Not sure to be quite honest. But I know just now I tried flashing Baseband_D4.0-9625-02.95.zip that I found on a random thread and still no good service for LTE.

At first it showed same bad speeds With 4G LTE enabled and enhanced 4GLTE enabled..then it went up high as showed after I waited a bit. About same speeds as HSPA+ is giving me now. Big difference for a moment but not so different from my HSPA+ speeds. But on the next screenshots you'll see it go back down again..

It did however , weirdly...boost up my HSPA+ down speeds to 9-10-11 Mbps in my current area where I was hitting 5-6-8 Mbps before. But up stays at 0 weirdly..

I am on Chroma 24 Oct build, having MDM9625_104662.22.05.27R Radio, I am getting frequent Signal drops and LTE is patchy at the best specially in Delhi and NCR region. Has anyone else experienced this and have you been able to solve this and did you flash a different Radio? I am on Airtel.
All the help would be appreciated guys.
Thanks.
I'm on same radio and I'm in Baton Rouge. Great for me but some aren't. Base your radio on signal. Try a different one. Or two. Maybe find out what radio comes with the stock update in your area.

Was kind of hoping that someone in India on the Nexus 6, Airtel service provider, would be able to advise me what works best. Would wait and see if someone has already tried this option, else will flash a couple of radios and see what works best.
Thanks.
I know a guy in India. We are on bliss team together. Don't think he has shamu but may know

I'll let you know when I hear from him. Late there so he's probably asleep

Thank you
That's not how it works. How well someone gets a signal depends on a massive lost of variables. Being in the same.country and on the same.network doesn't come close to being enough. No one on your network will.have identical experiences with a radio.
All you can do is try them. There are no shortcuts.
Thank you
You're welcome.

He will see my mention. Hopefully one of his shamu friends will respond
Hello @vishalmmehra
Its not a baseband problem.
Actually LTE is still Under Development in Delhi.
You will face signal drops very frequently
Though you can try turning back to WCDMA aka 3G.
I don't think you will face issue again but if you, don't forget to mention me or my bud @blueyes for help

Airtel 4g support in Mumbai for nexus 6
Hi, facing same problem with airtel service in Mumbai. The service is not started in all areas and as confirmed with airtel, they are using 40band 2300mhz frequency. While nexus 6 supports 41band 2800mhz frequency, hence airtel people said to me that nexus 6 is NOT COMPATIBLE
Is there any solution to it (for using 4g on nexus 6)? I am running on stock mm.
Thanks in advance.
Had a big fight over this issue anyways came to a conclusion that it will not support unless they enable Band 3 for Mumbai circle.
in simple words find attached files they have 2 bands Band 3 and 40 and only 40 is enabled for Mumbai which is not supported by NExus 6 Nexus 5 .

Thanks so much I had to change network because of this issue, recently rejoined Vodafone and now m able to see the H symbol and not only the symbol, the speed is considerably fast. Also in mumbai they are going to start 4G services on the band that Nexus 6 supports. So its a good news for shamu users
