Ha, trade you phones, as mine does the opposite. Sent it in for repair. Unfortunately LG uses ground shipping, so it'll take a week for them to even receive it.
Have you checked the My T-Mobile app to see if the connections optimizer (or whatever they call it) is doing it?

[Q] Problem with Vodafone (India) Internet

I have Vodafone Sim in my mobile it gives 6 months 1gb Internet for free..This is 2nd month for me and from Morning it is giving Edge speed but not 3G speed (H/H+/3g).When I switch off my mobile and restart it than it gives 3g speed or swift to Flight Mode and stay for few minutes and than switch off Flight Mode but once I switch off the Mobile Internet and switch it on it goes back to Edge..I thought I did something wrong with settings and did a Factory reset still same problem...What do you think is it a setting problem and Service Provider Problem?

They will if you have provided your no. They always communicated with me, didn't miss a single time.

I am sure they know my number already Because I gave it to them more than 3 times to activate the 1gb Offer and few days back other reasons (Keep getting a Refreshing Sim) but I didn't answer there call I was busy....They always reply to me so late and it make me MAD!

[Q] WiFi AND 4G icon ALWAYS on together

Since day one both of those icons are always on together. Why would I need 4G if my WiFi is in use? I wouldn't. So why show the stupid icon? I'm on the original stock ROM and rooted but it has been doing this since I got it before ever doing so much as downloading an app. It used to happen randomly and now it's constant. What gives? Is that just how Verizon rolls or what? MDK Stock.

Happened to me too. Its caused by the City-Id/ Caller-id app that verizon has preinstalled because it automatically gives you a free trial and it needs to connect back to verizon through the cellular network. All you have to do is disable the app or open the app and stop the trial (disabling works best).

It's actually a ripoff. There is a better app on the playstore that has the same functionality as the verizon city-id, but it's free, and also adds the weather of the person who's calling. It's called Current Caller ID (by whitepages). Take a look at it when you get the chance.

re: Constant data usage.. on wifi and mobile

re: Constant data usage.. on wifi and mobile
I was using app after app to figure out why my data connection on wifi and mobile was always working..
I kept shutting down app after app too to find the offending one.
2 days later.. its the FUDGING GPS
and more specifically the check box was checked next to the "Wifi and mobile network location"..
Unchecked it and the data stopped..
Uncheck the box... and you will find better battery life... better yet.. turn off gps when not in use..
was wondering why my phone was losing soooo much battery when i was not using it.
Yes, allowing location to be determined using WiFi and network will eat up battery. Turning off gps when not in use really doesn't save any battery unless you have some rogue app that incessantly polls GPS.

So I unchecked them all, lets say I call 911, could they still trace it?

E911 which all cellphones use now are easily traceable to within 100 feet. Even deactivated cell phones have 911 service. Every now and then the police knock on my door because the idiot boys next door fight with each other and use deactivated cell phones and call 911. I just point to their door.

Wi-Fi Calling.

So, I'm trying to use the Wi-Fi calling but I can't pass after location selection... A message appear saying stop working. Obviously as you can see in the picture I have no signal in this place that I am right now.
Any help please?

I can understand that. Seeing as how we don't have root yet, I cannot tell you in-depth way around to reset app and wifi calling. Only way I can think is that app has faulty install or something obviously broke in running. For temp, have you restarted the device then tried? How good is location/satellite service (GPS only, battery saver)? If so, I would recommend (sadly) a factory reset and redo the wifi calling. If something still broke and error still persists, then maybe faulty hardware at this point. I had to factory reset first day I got it due to issue with brightness not sensing correctly. Everything works now. Ill keep looking at it but for now, only way is through restriction by phone not root yet.
That's the thing haha to have a solution before I have to FR the device. GPS is good in this area maybe is address...

I know, no root limits answers we can give obviously haha. Try address but I don't think that would cause FC in location query. The app should have just told you no good, not FC. That's why I can see this is frustrating haha. I have no FC and could not reproduce by wrong address and such. Ill keep looking.
Yeah that's exactly how I feel... Frustrated. FC every time when authenticating

Sorry to hear. That's all I got now since no root to edit other files. I'd just try another wifi if you can and see if it happens again. If so, no dice, sounds like FR to resolve only way.
I'll be doing some changes like moving from this area to see if it is the gps or the hardware. The last thing I'll do is the reset tho.

I am wondering the same thing. That notification drives me crazy. I seem to be having issues receiving some calls. For some reason the phone will ring in wifi calling and show who is calling but no one is there one I answer. The other person tells me it rings but then goes straight to voice mail.

It is real annoying when it happens. I shut it off for now because I didn't really need it on. I get pretty good signal but it seems to be in and out at work sometimes so I liked having it on. But it does me no good if almost every call I get does that. I assume they are working out the bugs in it.

WiFi calling works fine for me but not for texting. Ill have to retry to send the text a few times before it goes through. Also my mobile signal drops to no bars when WiFi is on, and returns when i turn it off.

Yup. I used wifi calling all day yesterday... It definitely helps when making a call.. But i lose all my bars and cannot receive calls. I confirmed this and had my wife try calling me with different configurations in different parts of the house. I've posted on the sprint forums to see what word I can get on this...

Not working on my LS990, either. RC says it's in roaming mode, but the phone remains connected to my Sprint tower.

It is still working on my phone. Is it making the phone switch to airplane mode when you click roam only? Mine doesn't always work switching back to home only, or automatic mode, but it does switch to roaming for me every time. You may have to switch between a few different settings before it starts working or something. I got mine working when i posted this, by messing with settings, and it has worked since.
are you on RC 2.11.1? and did you buy it on the play store when it used to be on there? I got it on the play store a couple years ago, so it installs 2 other "versions" for checking my play account or something, so maybe there is something different in the app?
In the Log File, does it have any errors? Mine just says the following 3 lines...
74:RC 2.11.1
126:19.0.0.1598.7
211:RC Complete
When i was trying to get mine working, i selected each phone choice and had it force roaming, then selected home only, then automatic.
I believe i even tried the "other" option before i finally got it to work on the GS5 option.
Maybe i confused it enough to decide to just play nice with me lol. Let me know if i can try anything else on mine to see how it works.
Edit: by the way, I'm still on the factory image, just stump rooted.
Yep, 2.11.1, and yes I did originally buy it on the Play Store.
When I tap on Roam it doesn't do anything. If I choose notification, it puts the notification in the status bar, but when I use the "View network status" option in RC it still shows me connected to a Sprint tower. My log file is the same, except for the numbers in the middle row.
I'll play around with it some more and see if anything changes.

Yep. To be sure, I just told SuperSU to forget RC, rebooted, and started RC again. Got the prompt from SuperSU, granted root, and no change in behavior.

Maybe that is what let's mine force roam then. There is a program I found a while back that I used to push a PRL from my computer, it's in this thread somewhere, it lets you get msl also. But it unlocks something to let you push the prl.
