Problems after Pie update on T-Mobile? - Nokia 7.1 Questions & Answers

I'm using the Nokia 7.1 in the USA with T-Mobile. Things had been working great until the OTA update to version 9 happened a few days ago.
Now, the phone is extremely picky about its cellular connection. I'll have almost full bars in my house, and then nothing as I walk around. At work, I had no service until I walked a half-mile to the T-Mobile store - then I had a good signal.
Experimenting with the basic mobile/wifi settings hasn't helped (enhanced 4G - LTE, Auto wifi connection, etc).
Is anyone else experiencing this? Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks!

Not that I have experience. I have TMO as well and signal both indoors and outside seem normal. Granted, I got the phone and immediately updated to pie so I don't have a reference before updating to pie. Did you try a network reset to see if that corrects your issue?

Thanks for the suggestion! I tried it and tested today... It doesn't seem to have helped.

APN details....
Here are my APN details (sorry - I can't use http links yet).
My APN settings seem to differ from others that are using T-Mobile on 4G in the USA. But, I had no luck with setting things to match what I see here: support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-28990
imgur.com/a/ZsLfajQ
While I was capturing these, the signal went in and out. And, I'm within 30 feet of a 4G signal booster that I received today from T-Mobile.
I'll have to try resetting the phone and ignoring the Pie update if I can't get this fixed.

How old is your sim from TMobile? Maybe a new one might help.

It's a brand new SIM (picked it up when I got the phone). Also, the problem seems very reproducible (where I lose connectivity) so I don't think the SIM is loose or has a bad connection.
But, the phone refuses to join the TMobile network (and won't even roam). Oddly, I'll often see the 'emergency calls only' message.
Things seemed to be working fine with Oreo, and then got bad with Pie.
If I do a factory reset, I'll just get a clean Pie installation now (as I understand).
Is there a [easy] way to reset and downgrade to how it shipped?

[Q] Droid X2 from Verizon to Cricket PRL update?

I switched from Verizon to Cricket, had my DX2 flashed at a shop and switched over Cricket. Everything works, but I rarely get 3G data. Usually it pops up for a minute or two, then disappears for a few hours again leaving me with only 1X.
Does anybody know the way to update Crickets PRL info? Or is there anything else I can do to get 3G connection more reliably? I know it isn't a signal issue, as it just simply doesn't work well anywhere whereas others using Cricket have 3G and good signal.

I'm sorry, but the name Cricket alone sounds solo, not sure how their network runs, but is this all you have? You can try calling Cricket, to manually activate your phone, changing our entering the codes manually...good luck, love to hear outcome..

Cricket is a pay-as-you-go service in the Phoenix area and probably SW USA in general. It runs on Verizon's CDMA network, just typically given lower priority. However, I am basically unable to get 3G connectivity period. The phone has been flashed from Verizon to Cricket and activated and everything seems to work with exception of reliable 3G.

[Q] Rogers LTE Data connections drops sporadically

I've not seen this posted anywhere in the i717 part of the forms, and felt like it should be OK to post this.
Ever since I got my Galaxy Note from Rogers, I keep getting sporadic data connectivity issues. LTE data will work great, but if I set my phone down (such as when I am at work) and don't touch it for several hours, by the time I return the phone has no data connection.
However the status bar shows that I have full bars connected to LTE, yet when I open a browser or try to use the Play Store, it keeps saying I have no data connection.
This problem occurs on stock, and with custom roms, currently I am using the latest stable release of CM9 Quincyatt.
Has anyone else run into this problem (with Rogers or any other provider that offers LTE with the sgh-i717)? If so, is there anything I can do to mitigate this issue, currently the only fix I've is to simply reboot the phone. This seems to fix the problem, allowing me to access data until the next lengthy period of inactivity. Then of course after several hours of inactivity, when I go to use it again data will once again be dead (even though the phone reports I have a strong signal).

LG V10 4G LTE connection problem

Hi,
I have been experiencing a few issues with the 4G LTE on my LG V10 H901 (T-Mobile). What happens is this.
In Network mode I selected GSM / WCDMA / LTE Auto. This initially worked fine and could get a data connection. 2 days after, I noticed I couldn't get a data connection anymore, the 4G LTE icon at the top was displaying with a down arrow lit. So I went in the Network mode and checked my APN everything was ok. Decided to switch from GSM / WCDMA Auto where I got a 4G connection (icon 4G displayed at the top) and I finally got a data connection.. Changed it back to GSM / WCDMA / LTE Auto, and there I was back on LTE... I had to reboot my phone and that is when I noticed the same thing happened again!!! No LTE connection and had to first select GSM / WCDMA Auto to get 4G.. If I reboot with GSM / WCDMA Auto I get a data connection fine.. The problem only occurs when I have the Network mode on GSM / WCDMA / LTE Auto. Anyone else having this issue? Is there a fix?
Thanks
I would say it's a hardware problem with the phone I've had mine for a month i never touched network settings and the phone gets a better data connection then any phone I've ever had LTE pretty much all the time where other phones wouldn't maybe a factory reset would fix it worth a shot
The first V10 i got from T-Mobile had somewhat of a similar problem but with WiFi, it would connect but speed was horrible. And LTE isnt that great in my area either. I read around the forums and notice that many have done factory resets and that fixes everything. I did that and lowe and behold, it did. WiFi was fast again and LTE speed improved but still sucks....its my area, not the phones fault. For some reason, a reset helps.
However, I was still just 4 days in since I got my phone so I just went back and had them replace it. I just told them that the WiFi doesnt hold....they didnt really ask me tons of questions. I replaced it only because I am paying for the phone and me having to do a "fix" to make it work doesnt sound right...so I want a new good phone lol. The new phone worked fast from the get go...no reset needed.
Just got the V10 was having those wifi issues initially so brought phne back n exchanged for another 1 and this 1 workes fine but now Im having dropped call s inside my house ,verizon said no antenna issues i can bring phne back n replace for something else or another v10 but that is time consuming ,please anyone having drop d call s....I live Long Island NY so verizon overage is better then most carriers...INaNYmin...
I began having the exact same issue on Jan 16. Had the phone since Dec 25th, worked perfect. Then, all of a sudden, it began to lose LTE connectivity. At first I thought it was a down tower, but the problems persisted an eventually got much worse wherever I went. On a full charge the phone will behave normally for a while, but eventually it starts losing data connectivity altogether, cycling between 4G LTE, 4G, 3G, 2G, trying to connect. during this process the battery drains a lot, it never really connects, and sometimes calls and text messaging fail. Tried every network setting, soft reboot, hard reboot, safe mode, clear cache, factory reset....problem persists. T-mobile concludes it must be defective. We shall see. Awaiting a replacement.
Having the same issue. Looks like it's a common problem. Any fix for this yet?
I have a similar issue.
it always seems to find the LTE signal, however I have no data and the battery drains very quickly.
If I have it on GSM/WCDMA/LTE, it seems to have connection issues. However, the data will connect on GSM/WCDMA. Once I have data, then if I select GSM/WCDMA/LTE, and it will connect to LTE
It is a Tmobile version. I am using it on Bell (Canada)... however it works fine with Wind & Tmobile, with no issues.
I am hoping that this will be fixed with the Marshmallow upgrade.

Wind works on hspa not LTE. That's why it works. I've noticed that it works fine on hspa(4g) but when I put it on LTE(4gLTE) it works for a while then stops.

For me, Wind works fine on GSM/WCDMA or GSM/WCDMA/LTE
With Bell, it will not connect on GSM/WCDMA/LTE.
However, with Bell, if I put it on GSM/WCDMA, it will connect. Then if I change it to GSM/WCDMA/LTE, it will connect to Bell's LTE.
Occasionally, it will lose its data connection... and then if I toggle between GSM/WCDMA & back to GSM/WCDMA/LTE, it reconnects. This seems to happen once every 2-3 days
I don't know why it does this. It was actually very frustrating until I figured that out. I almost dropped Bell because I was not able to connect on LTE for the longest time!!
I just keep my Wind plan for the US roaming (on Tmobile LTE down there)

Yup exact same issue with me and that's how I resolve it as well I'm with koodo and I lose LTE. I was going to warranty this phone but I think it's a common issue.
I just want to quickly point out that I am seeing the exact same issue on Virgin Mobile (Bell). I also noticed that the performance of the phone decreases drastically when it is connected through mobile data instead of WiFi. Anyone else sees this and knows how to fix it?
Lg v10 t mobile no connection
I'm having a similar issue I get a 4G LTE signal but if I make a call once I end it I loose all signal including the bars it wont let me text or call it says network not available and it will do that till I travel a few miles. I'm not in a dead zone because it does it in the heart of the city and on the buisest streets in Tampa Florida then it will come back and sometimes I won't get a signal for a entire day out shoe have any solutions?

I had a similar problem. With The latest software (,,v20c,,) With the LGUP Software I software put it back (,,v20a,,) . And it seems the problem disappeared. Last part of the modem software is not good. Even test elements. Sorry for my bad english for knowledge. LGUP software very simply .

I'd like to say "yes", but have found out the hard way that it depends on exactly which part of AT&T's network you intend to use it on.
I created a thread which I haven't yet updated, which outlines some issues I had. Turns out that my X820 as well as a different LeEco X82X (can't remember - same model ) do NOT work with AT&T in my area at all, and I live very close to the antennae. However, when I travel out of town, the phones work great. AT&T can't seem to figure out why this part of their network is different, but something certainly is. YMMV.
At the moment, there doesn't seem to be a large enough sample size in the US to compare notes and find possible network issues with this phone.
I have it, and it works for me in North Florida in AT&T
Sent from my SM-N910T using Tapatalk
I have more info on my issue with this phone on AT&T, and it's an odd one. LTE works great, but if I am directly under the antennae, or within line of site of them, 3G shows full bars, but it does not work and I cannot place or receive a call. If I walk a block away, and have a building between the phone and the antennae, 3G works perfectly. If I initiate a call where it works, I can move back to LOS, and call does not drop. No other phone seems to have this issue, so there is something very different in the 3G implementation in these phones which is responsible for this.
I wish someone out there had an idea as to what is causing this. One of AT&T's network engineers, who witnessed this first-hand, is stumped and I'm short on ideas to remedy it.

I have two of these phones, and both have the issue I described above. If I were to guess, it probably has something to do with initial 3G handshake timing.
One of the phones is running Madsurfer's 21s. It may have been a dirty flash over stock China ROM, but I seem to recall that one being a clean flash (wife's phone, so I don't mess with it much.) The other is Small EUI by aurel V7, dirty flashed over Rom V6-X820 of Bshuy2003.
I have observed no real differences with regard to the 3G connectivity issue between either phone, with any firmware. I'm thinking it is something at a lower level which is causing this odd issue.
I haven't received my max2 yet but I have read through allot of these posts and I remember reading about using the #*#* code to force LTE and it helped mobile connections. Also I saw that 19s CN or 17s India eui has VoLTE support. Lastly I noticed that the posted 23s beta cooked eui that Steve Mars posted has new modem files. You may try that as well. Hope that helps!

Thanks for the info, but I think the issue runs pretty deep inside these phones. If I knew more about the hierarchy of the software/firmware, where network negotiations are concerned, I'd have a better idea where to look for a solution. But I can say that I have tried virtually every ROM and modem file available, and this odd behavior persists. It's possible that it's specific to my home site, but according to the engineer, AT&T's sites are pretty standardized. The fact that other phones don't exhibit it, tends to point to something deep inside the Max2 as being the culprit. It's an insidious problem, as one might not realize that there was an issue, unless one happens to be close to a tower, trying to unsuccessfully make or receive a call, with full bars showing.
IIRC, the iPhone also had some strange issues on the AT&T network in the early days, and it took some concerted effort between AT&T and Apple to get it sorted out. The chances of of something like that happening to solve issues with these phones is probably next to nil.
Randy do you have LTE on your account? Could it be the eNode trying to promote you onto a better link and the baseband failing that negotiation?

I do have LTE on my account. The phone is connected, by default, to LTE, and falls back to WCDMA when making a call as it should. I have monitored signal strengths throughout the process, and they are very high, due to to my proximity to the tower. Locking the phone to WCDMA makes no difference.
When the phone doesn't have line-of-sight to the tower, and/or that LOS is significantly obscured, the UMTS signal goes below -60dba and the phone works perfectly. Thinking the signal strength was the key, the output of the tower was artificially reduced to below that level, as a troubleshooting test. It still did not allow the phones to work on WCDMA to make calls, even though it still showed a 3G connection with full bars. I'm not a telcom engineer, but it really seems like a timing problem, where the reflected signals work, but signals received directly from the transmitter do not. Again, the problem exists only at the point where the 3G link is initiated, either by the handset or the tower. Once a call is established, that session works fine, no matter the proximity to the tower thereafter. But once moved into the areas of LOS to the tower with an active call session and I end the call, the phone can no longer make or receive calls in those areas.
Short answer: sorta

Alright so I have been using this phone for about 6 months and it kinda sorta does. I am using the x820 one btw. I get about 80% up time with this phone. I can't really make or receive calls without the phone dropping them within the 1st minute. Let me explain further. So firstly, when I am on LTE (if not on 4G (I'll explain later)), and try and make a call, I will usually get switched over to 4G and then as the call is attempting it will completely lose service and say I can't complete the call. Then after that attempt, I will usually get my service back. And it will keep doing that unless I get lucky then if I actually can make a call then I will be lucky if I get a full minute or 2 before the call drops because of loss of service. Now for the later explanation. So basically I have noticed just because I am supposed to get LTE doesn't mean you will get the service. Also you will drop service a bunch and it gets very aggravating! I have verified my results in FL, GA, and TN.

LG V30+ Network Connectivity issues

Hi everyone
I'm the proud owner of a LGV30+ (Hong Kong seller on ebay) and using it on O2 here in the UK.
Phone is fantastic - very happy with it and big improvement on my Nexus 6p. I miss stock android but have removed most of the bloat and installed pixel launcher and it's all looking good.
My one problem though is that I used to get rock solid 4g reception at home. The LGv30+ on the other hand keeps dropping from 4g, down to 3g, then back up to 4g again. It's driving me nuts! Phone is fine when I'm in town but just when I'm at home it is doing this. O2 say there are no problems with the mast in my area, and when I put my SIM back into my Nexus 4g was solid as a rock.
Has anyone experienced this issue, and does anyone have any ideas on how to fix it?
Many thanks for any help you can offer!
Was the data like this before you removed all bloat? Were you able to test it? If not, I'd ask what all you removed as bloat?

Hi - cheers for replying so quick. Yes the data was doing this before I touched the bloat situation. Only just started addressing bloat this evening and I've only removed a handful of apps thus far...just obvious ones like Calendar, Clock, Contacts, Gallery and Email so far....
I should also add that the reception is solid 4G when I'm in town - it's just when I'm at home When i put SIM back in my old Nexus 6p, the reception is fine so I don't think it is the SIM

Do a backup, then go into the dialer and put in *#546368#*(Put your model number here with no parenthesis, like mine would be 932)#
Try to see if you can turn on all the bands this way?
I'm not sure if that will help but it's worth trying I think.

Cool! Glad you fixed it. That would be very hard to diagnose!
I had to go into my AT&T APN to confirm it's already on IPv4. I have IPv6 disabled on my wi-fi router as well as my PC, and I have apps on my current rooted phone to disable IPv6 over Wi-Fi for when I am connected to other Wi-Fi networks. Why? I have my reasons, but it does no harm and actually may do some good. Not only in your case but others:

Slight hijack here. I'm waiting for this phone to come to Taiwan, as I'm wanting to dump my HTC 10 because of it's awful battery and WiFi. I'm guessing many will have followed this route as audiophiles. As there is no mention in these threads of WiFi issues I'm guessing it's strong/not an issue. So, anyone come from a 10, and are now happy with the V30 radios?
Very happy, but I had no issue, even on Wi-Fi, with my HTC10 either (Taiwan version too). Radios are just fine.
Slight update to my issue....
I thought I had it fixed but then the problem returned. After spending ages trying to work out the problem, my girlfriend noticed that the same issue was happening on her iPhone! So I think it's a mast issue... And o2 are reporting a problem with the mast in my area. So hopefully will be resolved in due course.
Other than that, absolutely delighted with this phone. Only minor gripe is that I don't have Volte or WiFi calling as I don't have carrier firmware...i have ordered sims from all the major UK carriers tho to see if it works with any of them.

Please keep us updated. I'm specifically interested if it can access volte on the 3 network as if it can it gives you access to their band 20 4g which is stronger
Funnily enough, I have literally just popped in the Three SIM and at the moment no band 20 at home
Had a painful web chat with three so just gave up asking.
Out later tonight tho so will check if it works in town...
I should also add that I've tried EE with no joy too.
Only thing I can say thus far tho is that x-network HD voice seems to be pretty good. I have done 02->ee (HD voice) and ee->o2. Haven't tried three yet as have zilcho reception at home (seems the mast in my area is affecting all the networks... and I actually drove past them putting a new one up this morning...)

Slight hijack here. I'm waiting for this phone to come to Taiwan, as I'm wanting to dump my HTC 10 because of it's awful battery and WiFi. I'm guessing many will have followed this route as audiophiles. As there is no mention in these threads of WiFi issues I'm guessing it's strong/not an issue. So, anyone come from a 10, and are now happy with the V30 radios?

A late reply to this post. Made the transition from HTC10 -> LGV30 for the same reasons: audiophile quality and poor battery life of the 10. The V30 radio performance is awful. I am on AT&T in San Francisco using the H931 variant. I often stream hi-res audio (320k MP3 or FLAC) from the EU and many places. The radio connection drops frequently, stream apps become unusable. It either clears itself after minutes of delay or I force the phone into airplane mode and back on. Quite annoying. I am also suspecting AT&T deliberately messing with the radio settings for people who stream a lot.
Just a note that i am with 3 and they have an app that you can download and it allows you to make calls over wifi. The app is called three in touch.
